Data Point – November NICS data: we’re buying more guns!

by Skip

And now we can say, once again, THANKS DEMOCRATS!  The more you keep talking, especially Beto (who broke the civilian disarmament code of omerta), the more we keep buying.  And when you live in Washington State with one infringing law after another, Virginia’s Governor Northam threatening to use the National Guard against Virginia counties declaring … Read more

Peggy Noonan on recent gun sales explosion: “…and they also fear their Government.”

by Skip

On “This week with George Stephanopolus”, Peggy Noonan said what I have been posting about here for a while.  If that angst has now trickled up to a nationally rated columnist and talking head on one of the top rated national political shows, that assures that there is a problem.  The gun sales are through the roof to the point of being almost unobtainable – and is finally getting noticed.  George asked Peggy Noonan the question:
