The recent announcement that Washington Lt. Governor Cyrus Habit was unilaterally going to prohibit firearms in the state Senate viewing gallery was coincidentally timed with the publication of a piece about guns on capitol campuses that a leading gun data researcher suggested was biased by omission.
John Lott, founder and president of the Crime Prevention Research Center and author of several books on firearms and crime, asserted in an Op-ed published by The Hill that news outlets had published an edited version of the story by “systematically excluding one side of the argument — any information that concealed handgun permit holders are law-abiding and don’t pose a risk to others.” |

I’m nervous. In fewer than three hours, I will be firing a handgun. This is my first time putting my hands on actual bullets, my first time loading a magazine, and my first time holding a real gun. I am sitting in a classroom with three women near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, ready to take the Ladies Handgun Fundamentals course at the Wisconsin Firearms Training Center. |

An Omaha, Neb., tobacconist shot and killed one of two young men who were attempting to rob the shop, following a late-night break-in. The businessman was in the store around 11 p.m. when two hooligans broke in, determined to rob the premises. The store employee fired five shots at the two thieves, hitting one fatally. It was not known whether the other was hit, as he was still on the loose. (Omaha.com, Omaha, NE, 9/19/17) |

Massachusetts, a case which the United States Supreme Court unanimously vacated a Massachusetts conviction of a woman who carried a stun gun for self defense, in August of 2016, the New Jersey Second Amendment Society (NJ2AS) filed a lawsuit against the State of New Jersey challenging their outright ban on stun guns and tasers (electronic self-defense devices). Since 1985 stun guns and taser were completely banned from acquisition, possession, and carry in New Jersey. |

State boundaries exist for a reason: to delineate where one set of citizens has the right to govern themselves and another doesn’t. Indiana and Missouri do many things differently from Illinois — and, we regret to say, sometimes better. But we are free to follow their example anytime we want. Those other states can’t impose their policies on the Land of Lincoln.

Trouble on the U.S.-Mexican border is not a new problem. A little more than a century ago, the violence of the Mexican Revolution spilled over into the United States with Pancho Villa’s deadly raid on Columbus, N.M. During 1915, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed that Mexican Presidente Carranza had produced enough democratic reform in his government to gain the support of the White House, but revolutionary leader Pancho Villa turned violent against America in retribution.

Conservatives, being Second Amendment stalwarts, are usually pretty chill about accidental shootings. “Fake News Exposed: Accidental Gun Deaths Plummet To All-Time Low,” reported the Daily Wire. “Every story about an accidental shooting in the home will be repeated again and again,” complained columnist Thomas Sowell, “while a thousand stories about lives saved by defensive uses of a gun will never see the light of day in most newspapers or on most television newscasts.” “Pools, knives, and pillows cause more accidental deaths than guns so I am not going to let you anti-gun weasels demonize my self-defense tool just because it makes you wet your pants,” wrote Bruce W. Krafft of The Truth About Guns. |

The Army is replacing its standard issue handgun with a new model, and some Fort Campbell soldiers are the first to receive the sidearm. This isn't the first time the famed 101st Airborne has been called on to field new equipment. The division was also one of the first to receive the updated M320 grenade launcher a few years ago. Lt. Col. Martin O’Donnell says the 101st has often piloted equipment because they’ve been deployed more often than other divisions. |
