Why Semi-Autos Are So Dangerous? It’s the Gas!
In a recent op-ed, Senator Martin Heinrich of New Mexico explains what makes semi-automatic weapons so dangerous:
How the AR-15 Divided a Nation – Seriously?
Boston University Keeps sending me “Bostonia,” which touts itself as being THE Alumni magazine of BU. Forty years later, I still have no idea how they found me up here in NH (never gave them my address); they keep sending me this rag.
From Muskets to AR-15s: Weapons of War or Enemies of Tyranny?
Many politicians claim to support the Second Amendment while simultaneously insisting the federal government has the authority to ban “military-style weapons.” These are mutually exclusive positions.
A Tale of Two Shootings
The week of May 22, 2022, there were two mass firearm assaults. One in Uvalde, Texas I am sure you are all aware of – 19 children and 2 adults dead. The second, Charleston, West Virginia, you would probably never have heard of except for this editorial.
Even George Takei Finds an Acorn Sometimes
If you haven’t already heard, anti-gun activist George Takei recently tweeted, “Crazy thought, but those 20 million AR-15s now in this country could sure arm a lot of Ukrainians.”
AR-15 Gatling Gun – Show This Video to a Democrat and Watch Them Cr*p Kittens!
The internet has coughed something up that I thought was interesting. Not just because of the engineering or its unique status as a cool – and as far as I can tell perfectly legal – toy, but because Democrats might lose their minds.
Catch-73 Million
Here’s a summary (from CNN) of the legal argument that just cost Remington $73 million:
Lawyers for the plaintiffs contended that the company marketed rifles by extolling the militaristic qualities of the rifle and reinforcing the image of a combat weapon — in violation of a Connecticut law that prevents deceptive marketing practices.
Even in Canada, Gun Owners are telling the Government to Stuff IT on Weapon Bans
Why is it that the Left ALWAYS assumes that anyone that owns a gun, especially the dreaded “assault weapons,” is a raving lunatic just ready to go postal? You know, like they themselves who yearn to let their raving totalitarianism out of their skulls, souls, and hearts?
Weapons of War? You Bet.
Dianne Feinstein, in introducing yet another gun-grab bill, declared that ‘assault weapons’ are ‘weapons of war.’ Of course, by this point, the pro-rights reflex is to shout back: No they’re not! And then to start listing all the other uses for what are more accurately called semi-automatic sporting rifles.
Quick Shot: How Many AR-15’s Did Jesus Own?
Without meaning to, fame-seeking, tragedy milking, anti-gun muppet, (and aspiring Pillow entrepreneur) David Hogg proved why we need firearms. In this tweet from 2019, he invokes Jesus to make a case for civilian disarmament. It doesn’t go the way he planned.
Sigh, now BOTH Popular Science and Popular Mechanics are Dead to Me
As the saying goes, “Go Woke, go broke.” Just look at what has happened to Dick’s Sporting Goods after they decided that they weren’t just going to stop selling long guns, especially those using the AR-15 platform. They also decided that they were going to fund anti-gun lobbyists as well.
After London Bridge Attack the New Hotness is an AR-15 With Narwhal Tusk Attachment
A known-wolf terrorist gets out of prison in London on automatic early release. He then attempts more terrorism (knife crimes) but is eventually detained by a fire-extinguisher and a man wielding a Narwhal tusk. It only seems right that we reconsider our self-defense options.
Weapons “Expert” Sheila Jackson Lee: AR-15 Heavy as 10-boxes, uses .50 cal. Rounds
It’s reassuring to know that the people hell-bent on controlling our lives are as “well-informed” as Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee. Here she explains her familiarity with the AR-15 platform. Which is to say, she has none.
Alpha Dog Firearms Sells out of Discounted “Beto AR-15s” in 4 Hours
Obama was the greatest gun salesman in US history. Beto thinks he is the vanilla Obama, but he’s not. He may however turn out to be a better gun salesman.
Alpha Loesch vs. Beto-Male – I Just Want to Defend Myself, O’Rourke is Making Actual Threats
When a candidate for president declares that confiscation of private property is a priority for their administration, we believe them. He doesn’t just want to disarm the law-abiding citizens, he’s promising direct action, and that’s a threat. He even had t-shirts made up.
Robert Francis O’Rourke Says He’ll Make America a Police-State … and the Socialist Mob Cheers Wildly
This: Bobby Francis O’Rourke is never going to be President of the United States. But there is a chance that one the DemocRATS he shared the debate stage will. (I use DemocRATS to refer to the politicians, pundits, operatives etc. … not the rank-and-file Democrat voters … many of whom are god people and many … Read more
Private sector is almost always more innovative than politicians and bureaucracies: Mean Arms MA Loader
I really do feel sorry for conservatives and gun owners in California. Since it is a completely Democrat run State, Progressives can pass pretty much any law they want that really does infringe on the Second Amendment. Lately, SB880 said that AR-15 pattern rifles cannot have removable magazines. Yeah, go ahead, think about that. I … Read more
New Zealand Prime Minister: Why Won’t the US Ban Guns?
New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, doesn’t get it. Why hasn’t the United State’s passed harsher gun laws? Maybe she’s never been to Chicago?
Palate Cleanser: well, it IS Prom Season after all
I can go with a modern sporting rifle over the traditional shotgun being held by dear old Dad. I am enjoying, however, the look of utter despondence and annoyance on the daughter’s face. (H/T: ThrillBlender)
