The situation has led to an exodus of gun manufacturers to more friendly climes, with anti-gun states losing the significant tax revenue and jobs these companies provide. Amongst the companies that have chosen to relocate is...

by Mike Horning, PhD Last week's anti-gun protest in Columbus seemed to fizzle when BFA supporters turned it into a pro-gun rally , but that doesn't mean the debate on universal background checks is even close to being over.

by. C. D. Michel Over the last year, more than 200 black seventeen year olds were murdered in the United States. None of them were Trayvon Martin. It is the perception of conflict and violence that drives our attention.
