This week, the California Legislature was up to their old tricks, utilizing budget related bills to make significant policy changes targeting gun owners. Assembly Bill 135 and Senate Bill 135 are what’s known as “Budget Trailer Bills” that are used to institute spending guidelines for the overall larger budget bills. However, the Legislature has had

The brutal killing of three Black people by a white gunman in Jacksonville, Florida has once again brought under the spotlight the steep rise of neo-Nazism and white supremacist tendencies in the U.S. The gunman used a military-grade assault rifle emblazoned with swastikas and left behind a manifesto saying he hated Black people, officials said.

Today, the Tennessee General Assembly adjourned sine die from its 2023 special legislative session on public safety, and we are pleased to announce that all gun control legislation failed.  One firearm-related bill passed, Senate Bill 7085/House Bill 7012, which exempts the retail sale of firearm safes and firearm safety devices from sales and use taxes

The National Rifle Association (NRA) issued a blistering response to Vice President Kamala Harris arguing President Biden will ban so-called “assault weapons.”  “@JoeBiden has taken on the @NRA and won. He can do it again,” Harris tweeted Tuesday evening, accompanied by a campaign ad celebrating Biden’s determination to “ban assault weapons.”  The NRA shot back

Charges are unlikely to be filed against whoever fatally shot a University of South Carolina fraternity brother who tried to enter the wrong house on his street, a local legal expert said Monday. Former Richland County prosecutor Lori Murray said South Carolina’s “castle doctrine” law “means you can use any force, up to deadly force,

In further evidence of Americans’ waning attention spans, the once annual ritual of gun control activists and their media lackeys manipulating CDC fatal injury data to push a misleading factoid about children and firearms has become semiannual.
