Obama Administration Attorney General Eric Holder’s announcement on Wednesday of a renewal of the “Assault Weapons” Ban should come as no surprise to anyone remotely aware of the struggle to maintain the Second Amendment rights of American Citizens.  The Democrat Platform had an anti-individual rights  plank and Obama, himself, supported the draconian Washington, D.C. gun ban, even [...]

Last night, the Colorado State Senate Judiciary Committee passed SB 9-237.  This bill restored a sliver of sanity to regulations about the possession of simulated guns on school grounds, while illustrating just how paranoid the schools and state government have become following the Columbine Massacre.  The bill’s prime sponsors were Republican Senator Lundberg and Republican Representative Acree.

The Obama Administration is looking at the Bush regulation that allows concealed carry permit holders to exercise their government-limited Second Amendment right to armed self-defense in national parks.  The Obama Justice Department apparently actually defended the Bush rule, saying that it “does not alter the environmental status quo, and will not have any significant impacts [...]

The Wyoming Attorney General has announced that his office will study the reciprocity agreements that Wyoming has with other states to see if they are “worthy” to be continued.  If you ever carry concealed in Wyoming, or are concerned about CCW reciprocity, please contact the Attorney General to express your opinion regarding this issue.  Link [...]

Be careful who you vote for and question your assumptions. As Oliver Cromwell famously said, “I beseech you, …, think it possible you may be mistaken.”
This month, I had two experiences not uncommon for citizens of the United States, but rare in the rest of the world.  I answered a summons for jury duty and attended a hearing at [...]

While we want to face what seems to be a growing wave of anti-individual rights legislation during the new administration with determination and resolve, I believe we want to temper our rhetoric with measured discourse and sober realization.  Right now, we want to resist any attempt to infringe upon our right to armed self-defense from [...]

 
A usually reliable source has reported that there is a letter circulating in the U.S. Congress seeking co-sponsors for a ban on semi-automatic firearms.  This is not surprising, given the anti-gun nature of the party in power in Washington.  The prototype for this bill will likely be Representative McCarthy’s H.R. 1022 that, in effect, bans everything [...]

As a proud member of what Senator Schumer “affectionately” calls “the Chattering Class,” I think we need to keep a sharp eye on Democrats like Senators Tom Harken and Debbie Stabenow. Stabenow opined on a talk radio show that we need to bring “accountability” to the radio airwaves, which are more or less dominated by [...]

If you are an NRA Voting Member, you received a ballot in the March Issue of whatever magazine you get from the association.  There are two members of the current board from Colorado running for reelection.  They are Robert K. Brown and Steven C. Schreiner.
I am going to encourage you to vote for both of these [...]

By now, you have heard the story of Marie Morrow, the Cherokee Trail high school senior in Aurora, Colorado suspended for ten days after classmates saw three cadet-type drill team training “rifles” in her vehicle in the school parking lot.  Ms. Morrow is a “leader in the Douglas County Young Marines,” which, oddly enough, has [...]
