As if we needed another reminder that third party candidates are the real third rail of American politics, the results of the GOP debacle in NY’s 23rd Congressional District should serve as a stinging lesson in Street Smarts 101.  You don’t split the vote by endorsing a third party candidate!
“Mistakes were made,” as the North [...]

On 07-15-09, during her Senate confirmation hearings, Judge Sonia Sotomayor danced around questions by Senator Tom Coburn regarding her opinion about an American Citizen’s right to defend himself or herself against violence.  (See Jonathan Adler’s analysis here.  Keep in mind that The Washington Post is a Liberal newspaper.  Adler is outnumbered two to one by Liberal [...]

In a decision that may set up another gun rights battle in the Supreme Court, the Seventh Circuit ruled that the Second Amendment does not apply to the states.  The case is NRA v. City of Chicago, which was decided this week.  One day after the ruling, the NRA filed an appeal.  And so it [...]

In my post of 04-27-09, I initially reported that S. 843 would require the registration of all firearms’ sales.  That was incorrect.  S. 843 registers all sales at gun shows.  In my opinion, the difference is academic in the incremental world of the Fabian-Socialist gun grabbers.  The post has been corrected.  The danger persists.  Sorry [...]

The problem with registration [...]

Face the State ran a story here about positions some Colorado Congresspeople have taken or not taken about the use of secret ballots in Union Elections.  In my opinion, the so-called “Workers’ Free Choice Act” is anything but free or about choice.
Imagine voting in a general election with someone looking over your shoulder to see [...]

Given President Obama’s record on guns and his appointment of anti-gun rights zealots to key positions, it should come as no surprise that his administration is moving by fiat and legislation to restrict the rights of American gun owners.  Let’s start with picks and appointments.
Vice President-Biden-Proudly admitted that he helped create the first semi-automatic firearms ban.
Secretary [...]

A usually reliable source has reported today that that the U.S. Government, i.e., the Obama Administration, has decided to attack civilian gun ownership in the United States by “demilitarizing” all surplus empty cartridge cases, known as “brass,” before selling those cases on the civilian market.  In plain English this means that the cartridge cases will be intentionally [...]

In committee action Friday at the Colorado State Capitol, Steve Schreiner of the Firearms Coalition of Colorado and representatives of hunting and fishing organizations succeeded in stalling an increase in search and rescue fees that was intended to raise revenues on the backs of Colorado hunters and fishers.  The fight isn’t over yet, but Friday was a victory for [...]
