Finally Some 2A Supporters on Listening Tour

It’s good to see that the anti-gun state of Massachusetts finally added some pro-gun panelists to their government-sponsored Gun Law Listening Tour.

Justice Barrett Demands Answers In “Assault Weapons” Ban

Continuing an all-too-common trend as of late, another lower court ignored legal precedent set by the US Supreme Court in both the Heller and Bruen cases. The federal district court in Bevis v. Naperville recently fabricated its own “particularly dangerous weapon” test and fully ignored the “in common use” and “dangerous AND unsual” tests. Seems this one might just be headed to the Supreme Court.

“AR-15s only kill other families” Says WA Governor

There are some states and their leaders that just don’t “get it”. Our state, New Jersey, is definitely one of those. But today, Washington State Governor Inslee had some incredibly ignorant words to say as he signed an assault weapons ban into law. The part they “don’t get” is that they CAN”T ban AR-15s. They will find out very soon.

Who is Really to Blame for the Sutherland Springs Massacre?

We should never really be surprised by government incompetence or self-contradiction. Sometimes we hear words that shouldn’t surprise us, but they do, leaving us in disbelief that we just heard what we heard. The US government contends that even if they hadn’t failed to report Devin Patrick Kelley to the NICS system, he still would’ve gotten a gun and gone on his rampage. As crazy as that assertion is, at least the government is destroying its own gun control narrative.

Massachusetts Gun Listening Tour. Good Idea? Or Stage for Anti-Gunners?

We all know there’s certain states in the union that are just rabidly anti-gun. Massachusetts is one of them.

Charlie Cook, host of the Riding Shotgun with Charlie podcast, was present at one of these so-called “listening tours” recently.
