Far too often when a media outlet reports on "gun violence," the undertone in the article almost always favors the viewpoint of gun grabbers, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Objective journalists should be more attuned to unbiased facts and less focused on an ideological narrative.

Anti-gun Democrats (again) unable to hide contempt for ordinary Americans

6:00am Wednesday, May 22, 2024
It has become a tradition in recent elections for anti-gun Democrats to condescendingly refer to opposition voters as too stupid and bigoted to act in their own best interests. The latest example of this came from none other than former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), whose Bay Area district covers arguably the most anti-gun jurisdiction in the country.

In his State of the Union address this year, President Joe Biden proclaimed that “Americans deserve the freedom to be safe, and America is safer today than when I took office,” boasting that “[l]ast year, the murder rate saw the sharpest decrease in history, and violent crime fell to one of the lowest levels in more than 50 years.” What are voters to make of this?

by Dean Weingarten

On May 9, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit published a split decision vacating the conviction of Steven Duarte for violating 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Given the history of the Ninth Circuit, it is almost certain the government of California will ask for an en banc (all judges) review of this case. En banc is likely to be granted.

'Poison everything': AOC misfires on claims about lead ammo

by Matt Manda
6:00am Tuesday, May 07, 2024
In a demonstration that America’s outdoors and recreational shooting sports pastimes still bring people together, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 615 in a bipartisan vote, sending the Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act over to the U.S. Senate for consideration.

Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s “assault weapon” ban and confiscation (mandatory “buyback”) scheme was announced on May 1, 2020.

by Mark Oliva
6:00am Thursday, May 02, 2024
President Joe Biden said it again. Given another term, he’ll do gun control.

It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.”
