The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and the State …
Fortunately, things are starting to calm down. But I still have much to clear from my tabs. New York is investigating NRA over Carry Guard. Additionally, anti-gun folks are putting pressure on Chubb, the underwriter. I hope NRA has all its ducks lined up with Chubb, and they will hold and not wimp out under … Continue reading “Weekly Gun News – Edition 66”
It’s time for some tab clearin’. We’ve actually had some positive developments in the past week, namely that the SHARE Act passed committee, and rumor has it a floor vote will be held in October. Time to put pressure on the critters. Breyer: Second Amendment not about the right of an individual to keep a … Continue reading “Weekly Gun News – Edition 64”
I have to admit that I would expect Bloomberg’s people to be much more thoughtful about the optics of taking the work produced by individuals with far less cash in their bank accounts in this era of economic populism. Bloomberg was smart enough to realize that after years of his political allies getting arrested – … Continue reading “Bloomberg Steals from the Little Guys?”
There hasn’t been quite enough news to get these out every week. But here goes: You know all the stories about gun sales tanking post Trump? Fake News. Also, you know the story about how the NRA was never political before the 1977 Cincinnati Revolt? Fake News. We seem to have a bad track record with … Continue reading “Weekly Gun News – Edition 58”
I skipped last week because of our election results, and there’s no shortage of fun stuff out there. But a lot of it is not directly gun related. Here goes: $65 million is a lot of money to spend for a nail biter in one state and a loss in another. I’ll have to kick … Continue reading “Weekly Gun News – Edition 50”
We didn’t manage to get out a gun news post last week, so I thought I’d start the week off with one. At the beginning of last week, there wasn’t much news, and then at the end a flurry. But I have to admit, almost 7 years into the Obama Administration, news about gun control … Continue reading “Weekly Gun News – Edition 4”
It’s not surprising that the gun control community postures over current events, because those events can sometimes help drive their narratives. When a kid steals a gun from a parent and does something untoward with it, it makes their case that all guns should be disassembled into pieces and stored in underground vaults in the backyard. … Continue reading “There is Posturing and There’s Outlaw Biker Gangs”
News today has been pretty scarce, but I think I might have enough for a news link post: Following up on progress in the states, the Florida Senate just passed a bill that allows people to carry a firearm without a license during a mandatory evacuation. It still needs a House vote, but it’s at … Continue reading “News Links for Tuesday 03-24-2015”
I meant to get up a news links post yesterday, but tasks conspired against it, which seems to be happening a lot lately. At work, we had a window blow open and freeze all the pipes, which caused quite a disaster. Last week I couldn’t open my back door. Fearing the header might have failed, … Continue reading “News Links for Tuesday 02-24-2015”
Not much gun news that’s very exciting today, so it’ll have to be news links today for the lot of you. The latest trend in media sites working to ensure no one bothers to read them is now playing 20 questions before you can read an article. I’m not going to play, and won’t make … Continue reading “News Links for Monday 02-09-2015”
