The Founders’ Vision: How America Drifted from Citizen Defense to a Standing Army
The Second Amendment is one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented rights in American history.
Second Amendment
Today’s Left Love an Ordered Society . . . as Long as They’re the Ones Who Get to Order It
My good friend Robert Stacy McCain has frequently written, “I watch CNN” or sometimes MSNBC, “so you don’t have to.” Well, I created an account and check Bluesky, the liberal version of Twitter, so that you don’t have to. And checking this morning I found the very lovely Amanda Marcotte complaining that Mark Zuckerberg, the …
Democrisy! The Party of More and More Gun Control Are Now Buying Themselves More Guns.
We noted, 2½ years ago, that, in the aftermath of its bloodiest year on record — 562 homicides in 2021 — even Philadelphia Magazine’s Victor Fiorillo, who is so dramatically opposed to Fox 29 News Steve Keeley actually reporting on crime, told us about Philadelphians applying for concealed carry permits at a greatly increased rate.
Another Bureaucrat Disrespects Bill Of Rights
No matter how many times they are slapped down by the U.S. Supreme Court, Democrats never look at 2nd Amendment rights as “settled law.”
The Power of Words: Rethinking Language in the Gun Debate
The term “assault weapon” often carries a negative connotation, invoking a sense of menace and danger.
The Left Only Care About Gun Control When White People Get Killed, and Heterosexual White Men Are the Killers
As we have previously noted, the very lovely Amanda Marcotte, native Texan and later Brooklynite, moved away from the Big Apple to South Philadelphia sometime in late 2018 or early 2019. I have no idea if Marc Faletti, her POSSLQ, and she still live in the City of Brotherly Love, because, at least in her …
The Second Amendment: Safeguarding Individual Rights and Lessons from History
In the wake of recent events that have sent shockwaves through our communities and across the globe, we find ourselves grappling with the age-old struggle between good and evil, often personified in the most unexpected individuals.
Democrats Really, Really Hate Our Constitutional Rights!
Vacations are wonderful, but for a blogger, they do have a downside. When I heard about the executive order by Governor Michelle Cordova¹ (D-NM) to ban the open or concealed carrying of firearms in the city of Albuquerque and its surrounding county, Bernalillo, including by residents who have gone through the process and obtained concealed …
The Credentialed Media Just Don’t Understand the Second Amendment
We have previously reported how the Lexington Herald-Leader, a McClatchy newspaper, follows the McClatchy Mugshot Policy, and refrains from publishing the photos of black suspects and convicted criminals, and does not refer to race in its criminal reports, though somehow, photos of accused criminals who are white manage to make it into the newspaper. So, …
A Young Man’s KIlling Just Trashed Philadelphia’s Gun Control Arguments
We have previously noted the change from the 502 homicides originally reported for 2020, down to 499. Now, Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Helen Ubiñas noted someone that many expected to be on the list of 499, but who wasn’t there. This one seems legitimate: A 22-year-old was killed just over the city line in Upper Darby. …
Some Common Sense From the County Sheriffs
On November 8th, I will be voting for one Democrat, Estill County Sheriff Chris Flynn. He’s a Marine Corps veteran, and I personally know him to be honest. And, in his auto repair business — which he inherited from his father, and was once again being run by his father once Sheriff Flynn took office …
Second Amendment: The Necessity of a Well-regulated Militia
Governments usually hold a monopoly on the use of force. In the Second Amendment, the Framers clearly determined that the citizens should also wield that power.
Killington
The truth will set you free . . . if you are free to tell the truth. That truth is: Killington. After being graduated from high school in Mt Sterling, Kentucky, I was more than ready to leave the small town and head for Lexington, and the University of Kentucky. It wasn’t like I could …
The Left Loves to Blame Republicans for the Actions of the Democratic Base
Adopted Philadelphian Amanda Marcotte doesn’t normally write about the City of Brotherly Love, but with the gang gun battle on Sunday, even she had to pay attention. From Salon: U.S. gun laws are causing mayhem and mass murder — and Republicans couldn’t be more thrilled Crappy gun laws cause our crime problems. But Republicans blame …
Man Robbed of Open Carry Rifle at Gunpoint, Thug Fails to Anticipate His Victim had a Second Gun in his Car
The Second Amendment and the rights it conveys, are important. Yet a cool head in the face of danger is the best weapon of all. A man leaving the Wellston Food Market, a small St. Louis grocery store, who was open carrying a rifle, suddenly felt a gun being held to the back of his …
They Are Doing Their Jobs; They Are Protecting Our Constitutional Rights!
The Democrats and the left — please, pardon the redundancy — are never willing to inflate a crime into a crisis, and are using the school shooting in Texas to try to infringe on the rights of Americans who have done nothing wrong. There was District Attorney Let ’em Loose Larry Krasner, who would rather …
At 150, Is The NRA Still Worthy of Our Support?
Whether by plan, by necessity, or a combination of both, the NRA feeds a movement that’s bigger than itself.
