Let's pretend instead. One of the wonders of modern times is that reality is often seen as a social construct and therefore optional. Thus, if one finds a particular reality offensive or inconvenient, he just "changes" it. Say that one is born a male or a female but believes that nature made an error. Some believe that nature's "error" can be corrected by ... MORE
Not a fan of gun rights. If Hillary Clinton ever gets around
to telling voters her positions on controversial issues, it is not
clear what she will say about gun control. Over the years, her stance
has ranged from support for gun licensing and registration to an
NRA-esque desire
to "enforce the laws that we have on the books." Still, her disregard
for armed self- ... MORE
by Steven Greenhut. With friends like this, who needs enemies? Republican legislators are known for their support of gun rights, yet a letter they sent regarding state Attorney General Kamala Harris last week has a man-bites-dog quality about it. A dozen state GOP senators called for an oversight hearing to examine why Harris has been too ... MORE
by Pedro Gonzales. When Adolph Hitler got into power, he confiscated all the guns owned by Jewish people. Then, once they were defenseless, he sent them all to concentration camps. Now, in 2015, Jews are being slaughtered again because of their religion. And because of strict gun control laws in Europe, they are once again defenseless. ... MORE
by Michael F. Haverluck. Unloading his latest round of gun-control legislation, President
Barack Obama's executive fiat is poised to stop Americans from buying
and selling a traditional form of ammunition that has been one of the
country's favorites for generations — the .223-caliber "green-tipped"
bullet. It's commonly used in an array of rifles ... MORE
by Pete D'Amato. Lefty politicians plot to neuter the 2nd Amendment. California's requirement of 'microstamping' technology means that no guns manufactured after 2013 have been sold in the state, known as having some of the strictest gun control laws. Now gun-rights groups are hoping that a federal judge will overturn the provision that gun ... MORE
by Mike Sweeney. Going back over the last two to three years we have often encountered groups of medical doctors who are organizing, crafting a message, and implementing protocols which will enable them to strip a law abiding citizen of their Second Amendment rights. We first encountered the doctors at public forums, which were ... MORE
by Katie Kieffer. Fear of sunlight and guns is leading Democrats to turn nocturnal. Bats, mice, skunks and other nocturnal creatures are most active between sunset and sunrise. Nocturnal creatures do not “choose” to avoid sunlight anymore than fish “choose” to avoid dry land; it is instinctual, healthy and normal for nocturnal creatures to work ... MORE
by Jason Keisling & J.D. Tuccille. "An armed society is a polite society" - Robert A. Heinlein. After Washington state voters passed an initiative imposing
background checks on people willing to subject even their private
and largely untraceable transaction to goverment scrutiny,
opponents of self-defense rights proclaimed that they've
found a ... MORE
Previews of coming attractions? Registered gun owners in the United Kingdom are now subject to unannounced visits to their homes under new guidance that allows police to inspect firearms storage without a warrant. The new policy from the British Home Office went into effect Oct. 15, permitting police and constabularies to conduct surprise ... MORE
by Steven Greenhut. Gun-control efforts often center on hardware,
such as limiting or banning the ownership of particular firearms
and ammunition. But in California this year, the
most significant new gun-related law is less about the
guns and more about identifying people who might be too dangerous
to own them. A.B. 1014, which goes ... MORE
Musings of a genius. What a non-judgmental society amounts to is that common decency is optional — which means that decency is likely to become less common. The biggest issue in this fall's election is whether the Obama administration will end when Barack Obama leaves the White House or whether it will continue on, by appointing federal ... MORE
