“In Australia, we’ve been deceived… the truth about crime and self-defence is the opposite of what the media tells us.” The information people are given about crime and self-defense is intentionally misleading, and this problem isn’t limited to Australia.

‘To a predatory killer, a “Gun-Free Zone” sign isn’t a deterrent; it’s an invitation. It signals a high-density area of defenseless targets. This is the Magnet Effect: the statistical reality that mass shooters bypass harder targets in favor of “soft targets” where they know the law-abiding have been forced to disarm. Criminals act rationally. They

I can’t believe I missed this excellent article published by Aish two years ago! “Whenever you are carrying a gun,” [the rabbi advised me] “you are fulfilling several mitzvot, commandments. ‘Guard your life’ by protecting yourself, and ‘love your neighbor’ for protecting others. You’re not a Rambo. You’re a Jew engaged in doing important mitzvot.”

Feature and accessory bans are among the clearest examples of incrementalism in modern gun policy. Rarely do sweeping prohibitions arrive all at once. Instead, restrictions accumulate piece by piece, one feature, one component, one regulation at a time, until the practical exercise of the right to keep and bear arms is substantially burdened. In states

‘President Trump, along with Kristi Noem and Kash Patel, all made anti-2A statements regarding Pretti shooting, but Jeanine Pirro is the most outspoken “best people.”’ “I don’t know of any peaceful protester that shows up with a gun and ammunition rather than a sign,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Neom asserted in the aftermath of federal

The dealer (Vintage Firearms) also settled by closing permanently and forgoing future FFLs, showing how even FFL holders can face existential threats from these lawsuits. While the settlement doesn’t directly overturn PLCAA nationwide, it demonstrates how state courts can interpret exceptions narrowly in favor of plaintiffs in anti-gun jurisdictions, creating a patchwork of vulnerability for

“As Americans await the Court’s decision [in Wolford v Lopez], one fact is undeniable: the modern American militia is not theoretical—it is vast, practical, and alive.” In Wolford v. Lopez (No. 241046), the U.S. Supreme Court granted review of whether Hawaii may presumptively prohibit licensed concealed carry holders from carrying firearms on private property that is

Repealing the federal school gun‑free zones law isn’t a priority for most Republican legislators because it’s not broadly popular with voters (especially parents), it’s politically sensitive, it has limited legislative support, and it doesn’t clearly win many votes. Apparently, keeping schools ‘gun-free’ is just too controversial to mess with. There’s clearly an ideological conflict between

ATF records show that its database can be searched by firearm type, manufacturer, model, serial number, caliber, and other identifying details. That is a gun registry prohibited by federal law. It has been illegal since 1986 for the federal government to establish a national firearms registry. As you might expect of the sort of people

It’s Valentine’s Day—but sharp-eyed readers know it marks something else as well: the 115th anniversary of the legendary 1911. On February 14, 1911, John Moses Browning was awarded U.S. Patent No. 984,519 for the pistol that would become the iconic Model 1911.   Up to March 29, 1911, the official military hand arm of the
