End of an Error: Canadian gun registry to be dismantled

7:00am Monday, February 27, 2012
by Jim Shepherd It was a government boondoggle from the very beginning. It cost multiples of the budgeted funding, ran years behind in development, caused nothing but problems for law-abiding citizens and, as it has come to an inauspicious end, has failed to save even one life. Sounds like business-as-usual in Washington, doesn't it? Fortunately, this boondoggle wasn't "made in America" it was...

After Bloomberg's latest antics, it's time to take the gloves off

3:00pm Wednesday, February 22, 2012

Activating the Second Amendment Grassroots Movement

7:00am Friday, February 17, 2012
by Joel Friedman I, like most of you, have been watching and reading about the events of our country over the last several years and again, like most of you, I have been thinking about what it all means.
