It’s Far Past Time To Take Back Our Nation
by David J. D'Addabbo. Obama and his global agenda allies are using the media as a propaganda machine to create the Illusion that stricter gun control will somehow protect the people. This is of course a lie proven over and over again by unarmed citizens getting slaughtered! Governments are unlawfully regulating away all of our rights, under color of ... MORE

The Constitution, The President And Guns
by Andrew Napolitano. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." — Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution In 2008, the Supreme Court laid to rest the once-simmering dispute over the meaning of the Second Amendment. In an opinion written by ... MORE
The Federal Government's Illegal Registry Of Gun Owners
by Joshua Krause. I remember after the Sandy Hook shooting, when states like New York and Connecticut passed laws that would force their gun owning residents to register some of their firearms. At the time I thought that was a little absurd. Not knowing any better, I just assumed that the government already knew exactly what kinds of firearms ... MORE

John Stossel: Self-Defenseless
Ask the French if they need a 2nd Amendment? What might have happened if a few of the 1,500 concert attendees in Paris' Bataclan theater had guns? The terrorists had time to kill, reload and kill again. The police unit didn't come for more than a half hour. If a few people in the theater were armed, might they have killed the killers? We'll ...

Bridget Bowman: Rand Paul Takes Aim At D.C. Gun Laws
Protecting oneself in the nation's capital. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., is once again drawing the ire of the District of Columbia’s congresswoman by taking aim at D.C.’s gun laws.

Pew Research: Homicide Rates Have Been Cut In Half Over The Past 20 Years (While New Gun Ownership Soared)
"An armed society is a polite society" - R A Heinlein. The Pew Research Center reported last week
that the murder rate was cut nearly in half from 7 per 100,000 in 1993
to 3.6 per 100,000 in 2013. Over the same period, overall gun deaths
(including accidents and suicides) have fallen by one-third from 15.2 to
10.6 per 100,000. In spite of this, Pew ... MORE
5 Times Concealed Carriers Have Stopped Mass Shootings
Why not do what works? We’ve seen our fair share of tragedy over the last decade. Mass shootings, the loss of life, the cracking of the very fabric of society… Sometimes it’s hard to come up with solutions to these problems. But what if a solution already existed — and best of all, it worked? It does. It’s called carrying a concealed firearm every ... MORE
Poll Shows NRA Is 50% More Popular Than Hillary Clinton
Maybe the people are not-so dumb. We’ve been hearing a lot about this subject in the last few weeks. Among the list of the “enemies”
that Hillary Clinton is most proud of having made, the National Rifle
Association is right near the top of the list. This led one of her
prominent supporters to declare that the demise of the organization was ... MORE

Yes, The Second Amendment Protects Individual Rights
by Damon Root. What the New Yorker gets wrong about guns and the Constitution. In 2008 the U.S. Supreme Court recognized
what numerous historians and legal scholars have been saying for many
decades: Namely, that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
secures an individual right—not a collective one—to keep and bear arms.
Yet despite ... MORE
Ending Gun Violence: Common Sense Versus Magic
by Sheldon Richman. Only you are guaranteed to be present at an attack against you. What passes for thinking about the prevention of gun violence is not thinking at all. Thinking (as problem-solving) is a search for means that can be reasonably expected to achieve a given end. By reasonably I mean that supporting arguments can be provided to ... MORE
Jacob Sullum: Obama's Empty Gun Control Promise
A plea to sacrifice freedom for the empty promise of safety. President Obama is tired of calling for more gun control after every mass shooting, and I am tired of explaining
why that knee-jerk reaction is illogical. But he feels duty-bound to
continue ("each time this happens, I'm going to bring this up," he
says), and I guess I do too. Last night ... MORE
