When disasters occur, they usually occur without any warning. While there is much focus in the survivalist community on keeping an adequate stockpile of survival supplies at home as well as having a bug out bag should you need to bug out, there isn’t a terribly large amount of information on having a proper emergency
What’s in your wallet? If it’s a Discover credit card, be advised that it will soon be used to monitor your gun-related purchases and potentially report them to the government. Earlier this month, Discover was the first major credit card issuer to announce that it will implement a new merchant category code (MCC) created to
I am frequently asked, as creative director of TIME, to choose my favorite cover in the magazine’s history—a history that now covers a full century. It’s a question I typically avoid, given that any one answer leaves too many covers on the cutting-room floor. However, on the occasion of TIME’s 100th birthday, I decided to
In a previous opinion, I argued that Republicans and their NRA sponsors should spend less time worshiping the Second Amendment and more time understanding it. Here, I hope to further that understanding: the “slippery slope” that gun advocates morbidly fear, as a reason not to consider even the smallest gun reforms, is inherent in the
On Saturday, the Virginia General Assembly adjourned sine die from its 2023 legislative session. As expected during this session, it was difficult to advance Second Amendment rights for Virginians with an anti-gun Senate and a pro-gun House. NRA thanks the NRA members, Second Amendment advocates and sportsmen that actively stayed involved and contacted their lawmakers
Michael Jones | Community Columnist I don’t know about you but I am sick and tired of waiting around for somebody — politicians I would presume — to do something about the epidemic of mass shootings in the United States. The latest obscenity visited upon this country was once again close to home (remember Oxford
We don’t really talk that much about David Hogg anymore, as he no longer seems to be the darling of the anti-gun movement he once was; although one might argue he was never much more than a suitable tool for those determined to undermine the Second Amendment. Maybe the anti-self-defense crowd finally began to realize,
California is a laboratory for oppressive and ineffective gun control. And, for the most part, the proponents of these measures have kept up the charade that they are aimed at reducing crime, accidents, or suicides. But now some activists are becoming emboldened to drop the pretense and to admit they simply want to do away
PROVIDENCE − It’s not exactly the most sought-after job in Rhode Island politics. But there are now two potential candidates to succeed Sue Cienki as the leader of the beleaguered Rhode Island Republican Party: Realtor Joseph Powers, a 2022 state Senate candidate in Cranston, and lawyer Giovanni Cicione, whose 2007-2011 stint as party chairman during

Stray Thoughts By Randy Evans 2/27/2023 This has not been an easy time to be a librarian. Sixty-plus years ago, back when the library card was a coveted sign of my status as a young reader, Miss Botts and Mrs. Sager were never viewed as conspirators of controversy in the corner of the free world
Priced to fit any marksman’s budget, and on the mark accuracy-wise, the Mossberg Patriot LR Tactical proves the ideal gateway to long-range shooting. The saying goes: Want to know what it’s like to own a boat? Tear up hundred-dollar bills under a cold shower. Something might hold analogous for long-range shooting. Maybe, rip up fifties
Constitutional Carry, Legislative Bill 77, is scheduled for a floor debate this Wednesday, March 1st. Anti-gun senators have pledged to filibuster constitutional carry so we expect the debate to take several days. LB 77 recognizes the right of law-abiding adults to carry a firearm for self-defense without having to first pay fees or obtain government permission.
The Florida Legislature has started hearings on Senate Bill 214, a measure that would ban flagging unusual gun purchases made with credit cards. But before I tell you why you should care about that bill, let me tell you about this photograph of me on vacation. It’s become a running joke because they say I

When then-presidential candidate Donald Trump came to San Diego in May 2016 for a campaign speech, he went on a 12-minute tangent about the lawsuit against Trump University, pending then in the downtown federal courthouse. He took particular aim at U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, the judge presiding over the case who was working just
