There are many mysteries in this universe such as who was Jack the Ripper, who was D.B. Cooper, where is Jimmy Hoffa. Nothing is more boggling, however, than the leftist mindset. There are many well-educated leftists; yet, they remain willfully ignorant when it comes to the responsibility of living in a free society. Either that or they despise the idea of a free society.

Is Australian-style gun confiscation possible in the U.S.?

by Dean Rieck

7:00am Wednesday, October 11, 2017

After high-profile shootings, gun control advocates and prominent political figures, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, often point to Australia's infamous “buyback” program as an example of what U.S. lawmakers should consider for a solution.

Gun rights advocates point out that none of the proposed gun control laws could have stopped the killer, and urge Americans to take a...

With the news of the terrible mass murder in Las Vegas on Sunday, October 1, law-abiding gun owners knew the inevitable would happen: The irrational attacks from the left equating the actions of a deranged killer with the rights of law-abiding gun owners. When do our rights come into play? When do the rights of my wife, sons, and daughter come into play? Why is it that whenever unspeakable evil...
