by Chad D. Baus Senator Dick Lugar, who has been described as the most anti-gun Republican in the U.S. Senate, has suffered a landslide defeat in the Indiana state Republican primary.

Ted Nugent's newsworthy comments on Romney overlooked in flap over comments about an Obama second term

7:00am Tuesday, May 08, 2012
by Chad D. Baus Every year, the anti-gun media look for something with which to paint the NRA Annual Meetings in a negative light. This year was no different, and the media frenzy took shape when NRA Board of Directors member Ted Nugent stated in an interview on NRANews.com that he will "either be dead or in jail by this time next year" if Obama is re-elected. (Rather innocuous comments, if you...

The Annual Big Yawn: Brady Campaign State Gun Control Scorecard 2011

3:00pm Monday, March 05, 2012
Year after year, the Brady Campaign’s state gun control scorecards have become the laughing stock of the gun control debate for at least three reasons. First, they typically give good scores to states that have high crime rates and bad scores to states that have low rates. The Brady Campaign’s scores aren’t based on whether anyone gets murdered, raped, robbed, or beaten in any particular state;...

On the Second Amendment, Obama Budget Tells All

3:00pm Thursday, March 01, 2012
Barack Obama's careful effort to hide his anti-Second Amendment agenda is starting to come undone. The latest evidence is found in the budget he sent to Congress this past week. As we reported last fall, NRA was very successful in having a number of provisions included in the annual spending bills that are important protections for our rights. Obama grudgingly signed the Fiscal Year 2012 spending...
