We are already felons by this action from the ATF. U.S.A. — In a heated exchange during the House Judiciary Committee’s Oversight hearing of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives on April 26th, Chairman Jim Jordan questioned ATF Director Steven Dettelbach on the upcoming deadline for pistol brace owners. On May 31st, 2023, millions

The telling crime statistics gun-control proponents desperately don’t want to acknowledge. In the movie Casablanca (1942), when Rick (Humphrey Bogart) shoots Maj. Strasser to stop him from preventing Victor and Ilsa’s airplane from taking off, Capt. Louis Renault gave officers arriving on the scene their marching orders when he delivered the now-famous line: “Round up

Victory in any court case involves many factors, not just for your attorney but for you as the defendant or plaintiff. While you are most likely not an attorney, you, as a layperson, need to have a general understanding of what you are doing in your court case to “save your bacon” and not spend
