opponents of self-defense rights proclaimed that they've
found a ... MOREUK Gun Owners Subject To Warrantless Home Searches

MOREHow Jury Nullification Would Work In Anti- SAFE Act Case

MORECan We Fight Police Brutality With “Massive Open Carry”?
by Trevor Lyman. Those of us that are aware of the problem of police brutality are desperately looking for a way to stop it via peaceful means. I believe that if the majority of the public were to open carry (which I would call “massive open carry”), police brutality would diminish greatly for two main reasons: hb1.) More often than not the ... MOREJames Trenton: The Roadmap For Gun Control
Be aware. A lot of people involved in the fight for gun rights get caught up in the details of daily battles and lose focus of the big picture
of where gun control is headed. We focus on specific quotes, an image,
or a video clip. We track the newest anti-gun bills and write comments
online. All these are important and we certainly ... MORE
