Arm Yourself!
The rate and scope of public shootings around the country are being used by would-be totalitarians as justification to disarm the American people. For example, Republican Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has scheduled his special session for the Tennessee legislature to convene to take up his proposed Red Flag gun confiscation bill …
The Disingenuous “Assault Weapons” Ban
On April 25, 2023, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D) signed HB1240 into law. The legislation is a sweeping, and flagrantly unconstitutional ban on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms. The law prohibits a host of rifles by name, including America’s most popular rifle, the AR-15, “in all forms.” The prohibition also targets centerfire rifles capable …
A Diabolic Gun Control Strategy
My good friend Michael Hoffman recently wrote an outstanding thesis on the subject of the growing efforts of Democrats (and some Republicans) to push the anti-Second Amendment envelope as far as possible. I borrowed the title of Michael’s thesis for the title of this column. For instance, right now Tennessee Republican Governor …
Brent Leatherwood & His Fellow Southern Baptists
Once again, evangelicals are proving themselves to be absolutely worthless in the preservation of our God-ordained liberties. This time it is the Southern Baptist Convention. While usually quiet on the gun debate [in other words, offering no resistance to burgeoning anti-freedom gun control measures], Southern Baptists have now spoken out about …
Biden Sticks to the Blame Game, Offers No Real Solutions or Hope
Ten months ago, Americans were promised that a broad series of measures aimed at suppressing their Second Amendment rights would be a game-changer for public safety. But almost a year later the game remains the same, with every new crime committed in complete disregard of the law the pretext for …
NY Court: “Innovative” Gun Control is Unconstitutional
Well, that was interesting. Our alert last week pointed out that “[g]un control advocates are ceaseless innovators in the realm of limiting freedom,” with one of these original ideas being so-called “red flag” gun confiscation laws. The alert added that these laws are open to challenge, citing United States v. Rahimi, 61 F.4th …
TN: GOV. LEE SEEKS TO REMOVE “ACCESS TO WEAPONS”
Dear Friend, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has earned a new, unflattering nickname. Gov. “Lousy Lee” has earned this moniker due to his “lousy” response to the Covenant school shooting. Instead of calling for common-sense solutions to deter school shootings such as arming willing teachers and passing real Constitutional Carry, he …
The Second Amendment v. “Innovative” Gun Control
Gun control advocates are ceaseless innovators in the realm of limiting freedom. They continuously devise new and bizarre policies to undermine the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans. The U.S. Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen (2022) poses a serious problem for these gun control …
Charter Arms .44 S&W Spl. Bulldog: The ‘Wrong’ Revolver For The Right Reasons
Not too long ago, I was reading a post in an online forum in which a participant shared a description and photo of his preferred trail gun, a snub-nose, five-shot revolver chambered in .44 S&W Spl. It had a mixed-metals construction to reduce its weight, a surprisingly compact grip for …
Vermont: “Kitchen Sink” Anti-Gun bill hearing April 6th
On Thursday, April 6th, the Vermont Senate Judiciary Committee will be hearing H230, “an act relating to implementing mechanisms to reduce suicide.” This dangerous anti-gun bill violates Vermont citizens’ Second Amendment rights by implementing a slew of anti-gun laws. This bill includes a laundry list of gun control measures including “Red …
