How do they vote?
Today the Illinois Appellate Division reversed a lower court decision that had dismissed a legal challenge to the Cook County tax on firearms and ammunition sales. [More]

Hey, I’ll bet more cars from large volume dealers are involved in accidents, too!
Produce one instance where any of the named stores, operating under the threat of surprise “zero tolerance” audits and record/inventory seizures, knowingly sold a firearm to a “prohibited person.” Is it their fault if Hunter Biden walks in and lies on a 4473?
Hey, going after the “law-abiding” who leave records to track has always been easier than tackling the underworld.
What? Gannett didn’t tell us about that? And, in fact, made a point of axing and erasing the one guy who would?
Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses HB 2118, a actual reality this legislative session and a bill who’s sole purpose is to financially ruin every single FFL in the State of Washington. If you thought your individual liberties have been under attack, wait until you check this piece of leglislation out.

Data posted at the Gun Violence Archive website shows 2023 produced fewer homicides, suicides, and gun-related injuries than in 2022, which indicates expansion of permitless carry laws, allowing more people to carry firearms for personal protection, did not result in more bloodshed as anti-gunners predicted.

Someone ought to write a book with that title…
At the very least, Montgomery County Sheriff Sean Kilkenny has violated his oath of office, particularly the portion in which he swore to support and defend the United States Constitution including the Second Amendment. [More]
“Patsy” seems such a polite way to say “oath-breaking, mother f*****g piece of s***”…
He’s not an unwitting dupe. His evil is self-serving and premeditated.

You know how you can tell he’s lying…?
