All gun owners who exercise their right to carry have had this experience. While running errands, picking up the kids, dropping something off at the city or county offices, grabbing a bite to eat, or maybe even just walking down the street, we’re confronted with a sign prohibiting firearms. Sometimes …

“Clearly, the state disagrees with Bruen, but it cannot disobey the Supreme Court by declaring most of New Jersey off limits for law-abiding citizens who have the constitutional right to armed self-defense,” wrote U.S. District Judge Renée Marie Bumb in a 230-page opinion that blocks much of New Jersey’s new gun-control law. This …

California, the birthplace of banning semi-automatics they mislabel “assault weapons,” has long been considered a laboratory for oppressive and ineffective gun control. Here are just two experiments in cities within the Golden State that anti-gunners would like to see exported to the rest of the country, in a seemingly never-ending …

Will wonders never cease? In February, The New York Times began to question one of the stupidest—perhaps the stupidest—piece of gun-control orthodoxy on offer in these United States: that hardened criminals will be stopped from taking guns into a given area by signs telling them that they are not allowed to do so. In the …

Some may not remember that the Second Amendment was once facing the prospect of extinction. Instead, the right to keep and bear arms is in the midst of a modern renaissance, thanks to the U.S. Supreme Court’s historic decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. How we …

New York City has some of the most-restrictive firearms laws in the country. Still, in 2021, criminals committed nearly 8,000 felonies with guns in what some affectionately call “Gotham.” How does that add up? The disparity in these two facts shows that, indeed, if it is criminal to have a gun, …

When listening to criminal trials, I am keenly aware that the prosecution’s case must be presented “beyond reasonable doubt.” The same instinct that leads me toward a passion for the civil liberties protected by the Second Amendment leads me to demand strict limits on the government’s power within the courts. …

In the movie Casablanca (1942), when Rick (Humphrey Bogart) shoots Maj. Strasser to stop him from preventing Victor and Ilsa’s airplane from taking off, Capt. Louis Renault gave officers arriving on the scene their marching orders when he delivered the now-famous line: “Round up the usual suspects.”  While rounding up …

When considering states with lots of unjust, unconstitutional anti-gun laws, California, New Jersey and New York nearly always come to mind. But if some anti-gun Oregon politicians get their way, the Beaver State will rank right up there with those historical gun-ban locales. Last fall, Oregon voters passed Measure 114, one of …

President Joe Biden wasted little time calling for gun control following the tragic murders of six innocent Americans by a mentally unstable person who was known to be a threat. Similarly, White House Spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre demanded a litany of gun control in a press briefing following the tragedy in Louisville, Ky., before …
