From Tim Rafferty [TimRafferty@cox.net] Did you know that in 2021 the bureaucrats at the CDC (Center for Disease Control) claimed that there were 21,000 firearms related fatalities in the US? After making this statement, the CDC soon thereafter declared that the fabricated term, "gun violence" (its people violence stupid) is now a health-related issue, thus justifying their position to jump into the anti-gun frenzy. Okay....so why is a government agency tasked with identifying and eradicating... Full story

by Charles C. W. Cooke Posted on July 3, 2022 Because I still have a strong English accent, Independence Day tends to bring with it a whole host of good-natured jokes at my expense. “Didn’t we kick you out?” my friends like to ask. Others invite me to “send condolences to the Queen,” or inquire, sardonically, “Tell me: Are you rooting for the colonists, or for George III?” Of course, as those teasing me know, I am rooting for the colonists. And I am not just rooting for them then. I am rooting...

Of course, all of this advice applies to women as well. When I was growing up, the high school parking lot would be full of pickup trucks with a full gun rack on the back window. Everybody I knew hunted or had a hunter in their family, and nobody thought it was "weird" to have a gun. Kids were taught early to respect firearms. That isn't the case today. In fact, it's starting to become the exact opposite. The other day, Margie got an email from NRA Women with a story, "Should you tell people you... Full story
Concealed Carry Case Goes To Supreme Court Letter From The NRA The National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) has partnered with the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association (NYSRPA) to ask the Supreme Court to hear a challenge to New York's restrictive process for issuing concealed carry licenses. "As long as New York continues denying law-abiding gun owners their Second Amendment rights, the NRA will continue fighting to protect and expand those rights," said... Full story
The year 2021 is starting out with ammunition shortages that are probably going to continue well into the year, according to the NRA. Even guys who reload their own ammo are having a hard time, because primers are in short supply too. If you have a bit of ammo, you might be loathe to shoot it up until you can replace it, and I get that – I feel the same way. But just because you don't want to "waste" your ammo doesn't mean you can't practice and keep your shooting skills sharp. Shotgun P... Full story

“A new 3rd rail in politics” Voters get no choice—Only government agents to be properly armed No limit to officials’ firepower, or raw power “Media is not woke on this issue” The Founding Fathers’ fears have materialized, at least for one political party on the American landscape. Left-leaning politicians have decided only officials should have proper guns. It’s exactly like the British who forced this country into independence. "Why does anyone need an AR-15?" media pundits perpetually won... Full story
Last Friday, President Trump took the historic step of ordering the “unsigning” of the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty during his address to the NRA-ILA’s Leadership Forum. President Trump’s action effectively withdraws the United States from the most comprehensive effort towards international gun control. Much of the intervening coverage on the ATT has focused on how the treaty did or did not constrain U.S. arms sales abroad, but many average law-abiding gun owners may be questioning how the...

November 3, 2020 will be a day you and I remember for the rest of our lives – a freedom-defining Election Day when our gun rights will be at stake like never before. If we win this battle, it will be a victory we can celebrate for years and even decades to come. But if we lose, you and I will remember November 3, 2020 as the day our Second Amendment freedoms were wiped out FOREVER. This is the biggest battle we’ve ever faced. Nancy Pelosi and an angry mob of gun-ban politicians have already take... Full story
"Paul Ryan is a man of high integrity and moral character who is respected by all. He is always smiling and is an inspiration to all. Paul’s strength is in the sponsorship program.

Nancy Pelosi is moving forward with freedom-killing, gun-control legislation RIGHT NOW. Congress is preparing to vote on H.R. 8 as early as next week. This is Barack Obama’s so-called “universal background check” bill on steroids. It will BAN private gun sales. It will make it a crime for you to even hand a gun to another person. It will pave the way for NATIONAL GUN REGISTRATION. And it will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to stop crime. NOTHING.... Website

In the wake of the Parkland, Florida, murders, there has been an unusual amount of anti-gun and anti-NRA commentary by private corporations with plenty of problems of their own.

I'm assuming that if you have a Concealed Carry Permit it's because you actually carry a weapon and would be willing to use it to defend yourself or your loved ones if your lives were being threatened. You may think that self-defense is cut and dried, but even here in Arizona, there are cases where, even though it seems to be a clear case of self defense, the shooter goes to jail, gets charged with a criminal offense, and could ultimately lose, even though he whole-heartedly believes that his...
