Massive, house-to-house searches now on tap in nation's capital

They're Still Coming For Your Guns By Brian S. Stewart I recently wrote on Washington D.C.'s "Gun Recovery Unit", a group of officers tasked with hunting down guns in D.C. neighborhoods. Due to the D.C. gun ban, gun ownership in the city is illegal, and the police use traffic stops as an excuse to commit gun searches.

Defenseless California woman murdered while on phone with 911 operator

By Gerard Valentino A few days ago, another American did what the establishment media and so-called security experts recommend by calling 911 as someone was breaking into her home. Just as recommended, she stayed on the line while waiting for the cavalry to arrive. And unfortunately, yet again, an honest person died while waiting for the police to come and save her.

[NOTE: see my pre-game and post-game eyewitness reports here: http://www.PageNine.org] But it...

Our Biggest Problem: Anti-gun Gun Owners

By Gerard Valentino The District of Columbia v. Heller case was argued before the United States Supreme Court just a few days ago. If the arguments were indicative of the final ruling, gun owners are in for the victory of our lifetime – or any lifetime. It will take months for the ruling to come down and as usual, different factions of gun owners are hoping for different outcomes. Self-defense...

Diligence Required (Angst Need not Apply)

By Gerard Valentino There is a great deal of angst in the pro-gun movement over the impending ascendancy of anti-gun politicians to the presidency. All three current presidential contenders have serious black marks on their gun resume. Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have long-standing ties to the anti-gun movement and want to reinstate the expired ban on semi-automatic rifles. Clinton has...
