Tuscon fallout: Criminal acts and incompetence

7:00am Wednesday, February 16, 2011
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions. -Ronald Reagan by Tim Inwood After a tragic shooting in the US, you can almost use a stopwatch to count the minutes before certain people will start pointing fingers and placing blame in places where...

Op-Ed: What liberals don't know about guns, Chapter 217

3:00pm Tuesday, February 15, 2011
by Ann Coulter Fresh off of blaming Jared Loughner's killing spree in the Tucson mall on Sarah Palin, liberals are now blaming it on high-capacity magazines. They might as well imprison everyone named "Jared" to prevent a crime like this from ever happening again. During the presidential campaign, Obama said: "I don't know of any self-respecting hunter that needs 19 rounds of anything. You don't...

H.R. 308 -- The Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act

3:00pm Tuesday, February 08, 2011
NRA-ILA would like to draw your attention to pending federal legislation that needs your immediate action. On Jan. 18, anti-gun U.S. Representative Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) introduced H.R. 308, the "Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act." The bill would ban the manufacture and importation of new magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition. Unlike the magazine ban that was in...

Bloomberg Operating Outside NYC - Again

7:00am Wednesday, February 02, 2011
by Jim Shepherd Seems New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg doesn't much care where he sends his officers outside their jurisdiction if it advances his anti-gun agenda. And it seems federal authorities have very little interest in slamming him for activities that would land a mere mortal in a federal penitentiary for being an accessory in a felonious act. [Earlier this week] The New York Times...

Op-Ed: After Tucson, Stricter Gun Laws Aren't the Answer

3:00pm Tuesday, February 01, 2011
by Dan Baum It's tempting, after a hideous event like the shooting in Tucson, to want to "do something" about gun violence. But let's pause to consider what that something could be, and what price we might pay for doing it. Much has been made of Arizona's notoriously lax gun laws. But Arizona law was irrelevant to Jared Loughner's purchasing the gun. The background check is federal, and he passed...

Report: Obama to give presidential address on gun control

7:00am Thursday, January 27, 2011
President Obama did not, as gun control extremists hoped he would, take the opportunity of a State of the Union address so closely following the attempted assassination of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona to push the issue of gun control. Following the State of the Union address, MSNBC's Chris Matthews broke the news that Obama is planning a special address on the issue in the near...

Op-Ed: We Are All Funding Anti-Hunting Groups

3:00pm Monday, January 24, 2011
Extremist environmental groups often get their legal fees reimbursed by the federal government under the Equal Justice Act. By David Hart How would you like to make a donation to the anti-hunting movement? You wouldn’t, of course, but like it or not, you already have. In 2007, for example, $280,000 of your tax dollars went directly to the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS)—the nation’s...

The passing of Aaron Zelman: A Tribute To A True Patriot

7:00am Thursday, January 20, 2011
by Chris Chumita The gun rights movement lost one of its fiercest defenders with the passing of Aaron Zelman on December 21st, 2010. Zelman was the Executive Director of Jews For The Preservation Of Firearms Ownership (JPFO). Zelman was well known for his no-compromise stance when it came to the Second Amendment. He boldly practiced what he preached and helped to expose the abuses of government...
