Another Year, Another Meaningless Brady Scorecard

3:00pm Wednesday, May 18, 2011
It's that time of year again -- the time when the Brady Campaign releases its annual scores and rankings, lavishing praise on state governments that infringe upon the rights of their citizens and scorn on those that respect the Constitution. This year, the occasion was met with about as much enthusiasm as that other spring ritual, the income tax filing deadline. If this is the first you're...

New Study Points to Truth About Mexican Cartels' Guns

10:00am Tuesday, May 17, 2011
The Woodrow Wilson International Center, which previously accepted as fact that incredible numbers of newly purchased firearms were being smuggled from the U.S. to Mexico, has just released a report showing that the numbers have been incredibly exaggerated. The revelation shifts the blame for Mexico's drug cartel problem away from America's "lax" gun laws, and squarely in the direction of Mexican...

"The Lundy List": Three legislators who indicated they'd vote for Restaurant & Car Carry before they voted against it

Last month, Republican House Speaker William Batchelder made headlines when he revealed that his 59-member caucus was unable to muster the 50 votes necessary for passage . A review of our 2010 candidate surveys showed that, so long as everyone kept their word, the votes were there. However, sources in the Statehouse told us that some were considering breaking their word and voting against the...

AG Holder: "I frankly don't know" how guns were allowed by the ATF to "walk" across the Mexican border

3:00pm Friday, May 13, 2011
According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, the Project Gunrunner program was intended to stop the alleged flow of guns to criminals in Mexico. That didn't happen. Instead, the program may have facilitated the illegal smuggling of thousands of those guns, some of which actually turned up at the murder scene of a U.S. Border Patrol agent in December 2010.

by Philip Van Cleave I have been doing a bit of research on [New York City Mayor Michael] Bloomberg's group, Mayors Against Illegal Guns. They claim a membership of 593 mayors. Of these, 399 (over 67%!) are in only four states – New Jersey (40), New York (108), Ohio (71) and Pennsylvania(180). If you throw in California (21) and Florida (36), they account for 456 (over 76%) of their alleged...

Op-Ed: Gun Owners Have a Right to Privacy

3:00pm Friday, May 06, 2011
Editor's Note: While Ohioans have won a good deal of protection from the prying eyes of the anti-gun media via passage of House Bill 9 in 2006 , efforts to reverse these protections continue.
