Hillary's 'solutions' for killing sprees don't address 2 core problems

(Image source: FreeImages.com/Kerem Yucel) Democrats have declared gun control as one of their top campaign issues this year (though they call it “gun safety,” “gun reform” or “gun violence prevention” instead of gun control – those terms poll better). They are betting that GunVoters are not really the political powerhouse that we have been reputed to be, and that after atrocities like the San...

Yes, Hillary will abolish the Second Amendment

by Jeff Knox
3:00pm Friday, September 09, 2016
Donald Trump was widely criticized by media, Democrats and even some Republicans after he made a joke regarding Second Amendment remedies to Hillary Clinton’s plan to “essentially abolish” the Second Amendment. As if “reporters,” commentators and politicians were all reading from the same script, they consistently pointed out that Clinton had no such intentions – in spite of the fact that this is...

Cook On a May afternoon at the “Solutionary License to Carry Drive” at the Philadelphia Firearms Academy, men and women filed inside, where they walked through a gun license application process and paid a $35 fee across the street at the official licensing center. Enrollees listened in on panels discussing gun safety, conflict resolution and more. It was the pilot program of a...

Doctor Prescribes Requiring a “Medical License” for Gun Ownership

3:00pm Thursday, September 08, 2016
In a recent Medical Economics blog, Dr. Monya De wrote a piece titled, “Obtaining an assault rifle should be as difficult as becoming a doctor.” In this outlandish article, De illustrates the difficulties medical students must go through in order to practice medicine. She calls them “model citizens, because model citizens should be the ones holding lives in their hands.” She lists the “strenuous...

Ted Strickland: We built him up; it’s our duty to take him down

by Jim Irvine
7:00am Thursday, September 08, 2016
(AP Photo/David Kohl) For nearly a decade, I’ve referred to Ted Strickland as a “friend.” It always hurts when you lose a friend, but it hurts more when the friend hurts you or betrays your trust. Such things are normally best handled quietly and privately, and I’ve long said I would not air dirty laundry, even as others have told me I must. I see now they are right; this is not just something I...

New York Times Issues Ridiculous Anti-NRA Screed

3:00pm Wednesday, September 07, 2016
At the same time establishment newspapers are openly abandoning their usual façade of impartiality in their news coverage, their editorial boards have been working overtime to elect Hillary Clinton. However, few have been doing Robby Mook and David Brock’s work for them quite like the New York Times, as evidenced by a ridiculous pro-Clinton/anti-NRA screed that appeared in the August 14 edition...

The REAL Threat to Gun Owner Rights: A Runaway Federal Government

by Paul Gardiner
7:00am Wednesday, September 07, 2016
(Author's Note: this article highlights a course of action for American gun owners to overrule any future federal regulation, Presidential executive order, or Supreme Court decision that restricts or diminishes Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms. This course of action is independent of court challenges to federal rulings harmful to Second Amendment rights. As explained herein, the key...

Fact check? The Washington Post Fails Again

3:00pm Tuesday, September 06, 2016
It’s embarrassing how shamelessly the Washington Post is shilling for Hillary Clinton nowadays. [Recently], the Post’s “fact-checker,” Glenn Kessler, said that the NRA's new TV ad is wrong, in claiming that Clinton “doesn’t believe in your right to keep a gun at home for self-defense.” Kessler took his shot at the NRA after we outlined how the Post’s editors were disingenuous, at best, in their...

As poll collapse continues, Democrats pull ad buys for once-pro-gun turncoat Ted Strickland

by Chad D. Baus

The news media were awash last week with news that monies originally intended to influence what some expected to be a very close Senate race are being pulled from Ohio. From Cleveland.com : As I report, the Koch brothers network has pulled about $2.1 million worth of ads next month, citing U.S. Sen. Rob Portman's "strong position in the race." The Kochs' move came after the Democratic Senatorial...

Buy a Ruger, help the NRA-ILA fight to protect the Second Amendment

3:00pm Friday, September 02, 2016
Fellow NRA Supporter, With summer drawing to a close, we Americans are now less 100 days from the most important election cycle in modern history. Though it may seem a bit cliché to label it as such, never has so much been at stake where our constitutional rights are concerned. With the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches all figuratively up for grabs, this November stands to serve as a...

With the number of concealed handgun license-holders skyrocketing in Ohio and across the country, there are bound to be a few more headlines mentioning incidents where a CHL-holder makes a mistake. As we take note of a few recent cases below, for the purposes of education and prevention, it is important to keep in mind that the revocation rate for concealed handgun licenses in the Buckeye state...

9 ways your firearm can be attacked in court

3:00pm Thursday, September 01, 2016
To most level-headed people, a gun is a gun is a gun. So the equipment you own or carry shouldn't matter if you find yourself in court after a self defense shooting. After all, when your life is on the line, you're going to use whatever weapon you have at hand. But as crazy as it seems, some prosecutors will do anything to get a conviction, and that includes trying to turn a jury against you...

by Jim Irvine
7:00am Thursday, September 01, 2016
We started this year’s endorsements with Sheriffs because they have best exemplified the role of doing their job in service to Ohio voters, especially concealed handgun license-holders. For the second round, we tackle statewide races , including Supreme Court justices and the U.S. Senate. We've also added a few more local candidates.
