Sorry, But You Can’t Have Guns Because They Frighten Josh Marshall

Posted on by John Hawkins

Over at TPM, Josh Marshall wrote a humiliating, unmanly screed about how guns frighten him. It’s actually kind of pathetic. I’ve been thinking of writing some version of this post since the days immediately after the Newtown shootings. It overlaps with but is distinct from the division between people who are pro-gun or anti-gun or […]

 

Left Says Gov’t Won’t Abuse Powers? What of Civil Rights Movement, 60s Riots?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The left is scoffing at the belief held by Second Amendment supporters that their right to bear arms is in part meant to act as a check on tyrannical government. Government turning tyrannical is ridiculous, many leftists say. But isn’t this the most absurd hypocrisy because didn’t they build their entire lefty edifice on the […]

Illogical Extremism of the left

Posted on by Michael Fell

Recent events prove beyond reasonable doubt that members of the institutionalized “progressive” left are more than enthusiastic about attacking guns and gun owners.:  True to their Alinsky roots, they are ready, willing and eager to demonize gun owners and Second Amendment proponents by disparagingly using the term “gun lobby” to describe them.:  It is no […]

Whoops! New NY Gun Law Forgot To Exempt Cops On High-Capacity Mags

Posted on by Matt Vespa

There’s a reason why moving slow on legislation is good. : If it’s too big, or you do it too fast, you often complicate the problem. : New York has just passed the most stringent anti-gun laws on the books. : Yes, government did something! However, as progressives crack open the champagne, they forgot to exempt law enforcement […]

 

Obama’s Neverending Campaign To Continue In Order To Take On NRA

Posted on by William Teach

If there is one thing nice we can say about (NMP) Obama, it’s that he runs an excellent campaign apparatus. Governance? Respect for Americans who disagree with him? Foreign relations?

Fort Hood Laid the Gun-Grabbers’ Arguments to Rest

Posted on by Dave Blount

We don’t need to debate whether disarming the law-abiding makes people safer. That issue has been settled repeatedly. Fort Hood alone was definitive: Shouldn’t an army base be the last place where a terrorist should be able to shoot at people uninterrupted for 10 minutes? After all, an army base is filled with soldiers who […]

People Who Are Pro-Gun Control Are Pro-Robbery, Pro-Rape And Pro-Murder

Posted on by John Hawkins

One of the great ironies of the gun control debate is that many of the people calling for gun control have people with guns defending their security. James O’Keefe showed this with his latest video where his crew went to the houses of media personalities (and Eric Holder) posing as activists and asked them to […]

It is often said that the Second Amendment is the First Amendment. Without it there can be no others.

NY Set To Pass Gun Law Making NY Great Place For Criminals

Posted on by William Teach

The upshot of so many gun laws is that law abiding citizens see their gun freedoms restricted, while criminals are free to be even better criminals. (USA Today) “We’re not looking to demonize gun owners,” Governor Cuomo (who hasn’t given up his own armed security) said. “Gun owners have done nothing wrong.” Yet, the legislation […]

Connecticut Bill to Limit Firearms to One Round

Posted on by Dave Blount

How far will liberals push their hostility to our Second Amendment liberties? As far as we let them.

Larry King: That Piers Morgan is Awfully Self-Absorbed, Isn’t He?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

For years Larry King hosted the CNN show that is now helmed by British import Piers Morgan. Now King has opened up about his replacement and his pronouncement is not very flattering. King thinks Morgan makes the show too much about Morgan. For those who remember, Larry King was more about being a conduit for […]

Posted on by Alex Nobles

Overall gun homicides down almost 14% since expiration of the assault weapons ban. Either Senator Feinstein is blatantly lying on her site, or she is just old and senile.

The Second Amendment is NOT About Personal Protection

Posted on by Alex Nobles

September 25, 1789, was the date the Bill of Rights were initially proposed to congress by James Madison. These were ten amendments that would go on to ratify the Constitution. The Bill of Rights are widely misconstrued in purpose. This is by design by our current politicians. Most think that the Bill of Rights are […]
