Pro-Clinton College Professor: Repeal Second Amendment!

At a time when it’s more important than ever to maintain the right of the American people to keep and bear arms for self-defense, law professor David S. Cohen is calling for repeal of the Second Amendment. “Americans’ rights are in mortal danger,” he says, unless Hillary Clinton is elected president and stacks the Supreme Court with progressive judges. In the repeatedly discredited rag, Rolling...

Sen. Joe Manchin Reveals Gross Contempt for U.S. Constitution

“Due process is killing us right now.” No, those aren’t the translated words of an officer of the East German secret police or a Soviet commissar; that comment was uttered by United States Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.V.). When Manchin assumed office on November 15, 2010, he took an oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Given his...

Are you a shooting range jerk?

In the gun world, we talk a lot about range safety. But we seldom talk about range etiquette. That's unfortunate because, let's face it, some people act like jerks when they're at a public shooting range. Are you one of these people? Let's find out. You're a shooting range jerk if you … Shoot at posts, supports, and target frames. People do this all the time and I simply don't understand it...

Anti-gun Senator Earns Three Pinocchios from Washington Post for Gun Control Lies

Gun control proponents are nothing if not predictable, and they wasted no time exploiting the terrorist attack in Orlando, FL to frantically push their agenda. Much of the hysteria surrounded their longstanding effort to ban semiautomatic rifles like the AR-15. But in the wake of a mass casualty event, truth is always the next casualty. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) provided perhaps the best example...

The Principals of Personal Defense: Aggressiveness

Jeff Cooper’s third principal of personal defense is “Aggressiveness”. As responsible, law-abiding citizens, we do not initiate violent attacks on others. But, we need to be able to respond to a violent attack on us (or someone else we wish to defend) when necessary. Because we do not initiate the attack, we must wait for the attacker to strike (or attempt to strike) the first blow. In the vast...

BFA’s Sean Maloney Elected to NRA Board of Directors

I am honored and humbled to have received notice that I have been elected to the NRA Board of Directors for 2016. When the election results were first announced, I was a few votes short of the top 25 vote-getters to win a three year term (I came in #26). However, I was recently informed that because of an immediate vacancy on the Board, I have been elected to the NRA Board of Directors for a one...

Independence Day 2016

With the upcoming holiday, let's look at what it might mean to some people…a day off with pay, just a day off, family, friends, cookouts, reunions or just a day to lounge and watch the fireworks. As for me, I think of our Constitution, our founding fathers, our Bill of Rights, our military men and women who are performing their duties to protect our freedom. “FREEDOM”. We say it often, exclaiming...

Use "4-square breathing" to calm down after a shooting

Surviving a life-or-death encounter is the most intense emotional experience you will ever have. The physical effects are well documented. Your body will release a massive dose of adrenaline to give you the strength to fight and survive. But like any chemical, it also has negative side effects, including time distortion, tunnel vision, hearing loss, and emotional detachment. Even after you...

A Legal Double Standard: The Media, and the Rest of Us

It's becoming more and more apparent that when it comes to guns- and especially gun rights- there's a legal double standard. For instance, if you're an "average" Washington, DC resident who happens to own a "high capacity" magazine for a modern sporting rifle, you can expect to find yourself in legal trouble. If, however, you're an NBC news reporter trying to make a point - on television- by...
