With President Barack Obama's Cabinet reading like a "who's who" of gun-ban advocates, it's difficult to say which member is the most anti-gun. That is, until you meet Arne Duncan. By Dave Kopel Who is the most extreme anti-gun member of President Barack Obama’s Cabinet? That's sort of like asking who is the greatest quarterback in the Pro Football Hall of Fame--there are so many strong choices,...

FLASH: 9th Circuit Court of Appeals Rules State and Local Governments Subject to Second Amendment
