Op-Ed: Ron’s Revolution - Could Dr. Paul really surprise us all?

12:05am Thursday, October 18, 2007
By Dave Kopel [Recently] I attended and spoke at the Second Amendment Foundation’s annual Gun Rights Policy Conference, which was held at a convention center in northern Kentucky, a few miles away from Cincinnati. What I saw and heard there changed my mind about the viability of Ron Paul’s presidential candidacy; Paul is going to far outperform the expectations laid out for him. First, for some...

Giuliani's latest try: Election year conversion on guns happened...6 years ago?

12:10am Monday, October 01, 2007
By Chad D. Baus Ever since he began campaigning for President, Rudy Giuliani has known that his past as a staunch gun control advocate would be at issue. The stumping began in earnest in 2007, and since then, Giuliani has tried on a number of different strategies to try and work his way past well-documented historical fact. In February 2007, he tried being largely unapologetic, telling FOX News'...

Op-Ed: Locked and Loaded

12:05am Monday, October 01, 2007
By Ken Blackwell Townhall.com The 2008 GOP presidential primary is shaping up to be the most competitive nominating process the party has seen in decades. It is also the most frontloaded. Candidates are fighting it out in the constantly expanding pool of "early primary" states and hoping to make it to Super Tuesday. With nearly two dozen states up for grabs on that first Tuesday in February, the...

Few converts for Giuliani at NRA candidate forum

12:05am Tuesday, September 25, 2007
On Friday, we reported that GOP presidential wanna-be Rudy Guiliani would be seeking support from the NRA, a group he once likened to 'extremists' , at the group's “A Celebration of American Values” candidate forum in Washington D.C.. As a follow-up to that meeting, MSNBC is reporting that Giuliani's attempts to distract pro-gun voters from his anti-gun record with a few pro-gun election year...

Op-Ed: D.C. Handgun Ban

12:05am Wednesday, September 19, 2007
By John R. Lott. Jr. FOXNews.com Is banning handguns a "reasonable regulation"? The District of Columbia certainly hopes that the Supreme Court thinks so. D.C. filed a brief last week asking the U.S. Supreme Court to let it keep its 1976 handgun ban, but how the city argued its case was what was most surprising. Instead of spending a lot of time arguing over what the constitution means, the city...

GOP finally has a pro-gun Presidential candiate among frontrunners

12:15am Friday, September 07, 2007
By Chad D. Baus The lack of a pro-gun Presidential candidate among the front-runners in either major political party has been a subject of much discussion in the pro-gun grassroots community for the past 8 months. From Hillary Clinton and Obama Hussein Barack on the Left to Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney and John McCain on the "Right", the spectre of a another anti-gun presidency loomed large in the...

Op-Ed: More Guns, Not Less, Would Prevent Shooting Massacres

12:10am Friday, August 31, 2007
By John R. Lott, Jr. and Maxim C. Lott FOXNews.com Few tragedies make their victims feel more helpless than multiple-victim shootings.

Some are looking for guarantees that such an attack won’t happen again. But Virginia...
