by John Prager. Warning: Execution video. In early 2014, a grand jury elected not to charge an El Paso, TX police officer in the shooting death of a prisoner, but newly released video is causing some to question if that is a good idea. After the Texas AG instructed the city of El Paso to fulfill the El Paso Times’ request for the video it has become ... MOREGun Homicides Down Dramatically; Americans Unaware
by Summer Dashe. An inconvenient truth for gun control advocates. It seems there is something in the news every day about gun violence. The recent mass shooting in Isla Vista, California, a movie theater riddled with bullets in Colorado, children and teachers gunned down at school in Connecticut, and the list goes on. While you may be seeing ... MORE
Elliot Rodger And Gun Control's False Promise
by Jacob Sullum. The day after his 20-year-old son, Christopher, was shot down at
a deli in Isla Vista, California, Richard Martinez
blamed his death on "craven, irresponsible politicians and the
NRA." Gun control advocates quickly seized upon Martinez's remarks,
using his grief to obscure the illogic of their position. None of the items on the ... MOREVIDEO: 10 Dumbest Quotes About Video Games

Walter E Williams: Black People Duped
The liberal vision of a stacked deck not necessary. People in the media and academia are mostly leftists hellbent on growing government and controlling our lives. Black people, their politicians and civil rights organizations have become unwitting accomplices. The leftist pretense of concern for the well-being of black people confers ... MORECarlos Miller: Cops Shoot And Kill Man With Hands Up
What a citizen's cell phone camera revealed. An Arizona deputy shot and killed a man claiming he was reaching for a gun, but a cell phone video shows the man had raised his hands in the air. However, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu insists the man should have been killed much earlier because he wasn’t complying with their orders. ... MOREMurder Rate Nearly Cut In Half As Gun Ownership Soared
by Awr Hawkins. A Congressional Research Service (CRS) report shows that while gun ownership climbed from 192 million firearms in 1994 to 310 million firearms in 2009, crime fell—and fell sharply. According to the report,
the "firearm-related murder and non-negligent homicide" rate was 6.6
per 100,000 Americans in 1993. Following the ... MORE
Harvard Study: Gun Control Does Not Decrease Violence
by Josh Furlong. Following the tragedies in Aurora, Colo. and Newtown, Conn. last year, the national rhetoric revolved around controlling the types of firearms Americans should be legally allowed to own. But a recently highlighted study shows that controlling firearms is actually counterproductive. In a study published by Harvard ... MOREHarvard Study Reveal Gun Control Counterproductive
The counterintuitive truth: more guns means less murder. Once again, a study from an organization that you would never accuse of being “gun-loving” or “right-wing” seems to disprove the myth that the availability of handguns increases murder rates. In fact, it doesn’t. The Harvard study attempts to answer the question of whether or ... MOREJacob Sullum: Why Zimmerman Should Be Acquitted
Emotion should not obscure the evidence. On a rainy night in February 2012 at a gated townhouse complex
in Sanford, Florida, George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin stared at
each other, and both perceived a threat. What followed is the focus
of a
murder trial that hinges on specific facts rather than the
overarching, frequently ... MOREMike Riggs: Three Drug War Programs Your Taxes Pay For
Torture, murder and terror. When's the last time you heard someone argue that we need to raise taxes to fund torture? Or to pay for violent paramilitary raids on peaceful U.S. citizens? Or to incentivize extrajudicial killings carried out by our own government, yes, but also by a neighboring country? Probably never. As every good citizen knows, taxes are ... MOREThomas Sowell: Guns Save Lives
An inconvenient truth for the left. We all know that guns can cost lives because the media repeat this
message endlessly, as if we could not figure it out for ourselves. But
even someone who reads newspapers regularly and watches numerous
television newscasts may never learn that guns also save lives— much
less see any hard facts comparing how ... MORESara Sorcher: When Can The Government Kill Americans?
The White House Won't Say. Sen. Ron Wyden has spent two years demanding that the Obama
administration share its legal opinions justifying the targeted
assassinations of suspected American terrorists abroad. After all, as a
member of the Intelligence Committee, the Oregon Democrat is entitled
(and cleared) to know. How can his panel ... MORE
