Today, Denver Post Columnist Joanne Ostrow, in an article entitled “Programs set sights on gun culture,” advertises two upcoming anti-gun rights television programs.  The article appears on Page 1D of the paper.  The first show, tonight at 7PM on HDNet World Report, Channel 664 on Comcast, is entitled “Resurgence of the American Militia.”  This piece, [...]

Once again, Professor Eugene Volokh offers incisive comment in the continuing debate about the efficacy of guns for self-defense.  In remarks about a new “study” regarding shootings in Philadelphia, Dr. Volokh points out the lack of controls regarding critical variables, such as gang membership.
The Philly  sample size of 675 isn’t as small as some other studies, but it pales in [...]

The Left is nothing if not clever in the way they frame the ideological debate between Conservatism and their “Progressive” ideology. The “Zero Tolerance” policy regarding weapons on school grounds is a classic example. The Educational Establishment, made up of Left-wing administrators and teachers’ union members, forbids discussion of, artistic portrayal of, or display of [...]

There is no dearth of political commentary in newspaper comics these days. Prickly City has taken on the dreaded “Birthers.” Doonesbury is comparing Afghanistan to Vietnam. This comparison, by the way, may be apt, in that I believe the Left wants the enemies of America to win in Afghanistan, as they did in the earlier [...]

“When ‘Omer smote ‘is bloomin’ lyre, he’d ‘eard men sing by land an’ sea, an’ what ‘e thought ‘e might require, ‘e went an’ took, the same as me.” (Rudyard Kipling)
Sometimes, when someone asks me why otherwise intelligent people hate and fear guns, I find myself talking about psychological defense mechanisms, such as  displacement, denial, [...]

Apologies to all who haven’t heard from me for about three weeks.  The hosting server went down.  Hopefully you haven’t given up on checking this blog on a regular basis with regard to Second Amendment information.
A quick wrap up of ongoing and recent events:
HR 45 is still a threat to gun owners’ rights.  This bill [...]

It’s the tenth anniversary of the Columbine Massacre, so we should expect the Mainstream Media to do what they always do in terms of ramping up bias against guns and the people who own them.  In my opinion, the Friday Edition of The Denver Post outdid itself, with one “news” story and two opinion pieces bashing [...]

It’s that time of year again.  On 04-12-09, the CBS “news” program, “60 Minutes,” aired a segment on the (Gasp!) increased number of gun purchases in the U.S.  Of course, the “unbiased” “news” report managed to get in information about the Virginia Tech Massacre, recent police shootings, as well as the alleged link between U.S. [...]

The truth is out!  The Left-wing mantra that U.S. guns are the primary cause of Mexican violence has been debunked by a Fox News Report.  It seems that 17% of the guns found at Mexican crime scenes can be traced to the United States, not the 90% claimed by Left-wing politicians and media outlets. 
The report [...]

Well, it lasted longer than I predicted, and the Holder Justice Department defended the rule, but concealed carry permit holders are now barred by a preliminary injunction from carrying guns in national parks in accordance with the state law in which a park is located.  Mainstream Media news reports on this topic almost always neglect [...]
