Yes, Kamala Harris was right when during a Democratic Party presidential debate she accused Joe Biden of being a racist. After assuring Joe Biden that she wasnt going to call him a racist, she did just that saying, its personal and it was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country. And it was not only that, but you also worked with them to oppose busing. But, it isnt just that Joe Biden used to be a racist and has now reformed. Oh, no. Joe Biden and the entire Democratic Party are racist. We document that reality in our book, Coming Home, How Black Americans Will Re-Elect Trump.

Democrat presidential nominee Joe Bidens proposed gun control policy includes a provision that could require every AR-15 rifle be registered under the National Firearms Act of 1934. Unless there were some form of carve-out, this could mandate that American gun owners pay a $200 federal tax per AR-15 that they own. The National Rifle Associations Andrew Arulanandam told Breitbart News that the current low end estimate of privately-owned AR-15s in the United States is 18 million. A tax of $200 on 18 million AR-15s means that gun owners could potentially be required to a pay a collective $3.6 billion in taxes, if this policy were enacted into legislation.

Introduced in 2014, the Tavor SAR made its way to my humble abode in 2016.

Though IWI's X95, released in 2016, usurps the SAR, my Tavor is still part of the family. For those just now coming across the SAR, how has it stood up over the years? Let's find out.

Nonetheless, The Hill recently reported that the anti-gun group Giffords is doing just that. This effort is being sold as an expansion of the groups campaign to fool gun owners at the state level into supporting an agenda that is clearly against their own interests.
