It’s official: Washington State has now entered the “found out” phase. The “fooling around” in Washington state goes back to 2020, when its citizens and administration informed the police that they weren’t required anymore. Then, about three months ago, the fooling around intensified with a ban on semi-automatic firearms that is unconstitutional on its face….

The first thing you need to know about American “gun control” is that it began specifically to disarm freed Black slaves as part of the “Jim Crow” laws.

Have you ever noticed how often mass shootings happen in “gun-free” zones? The mass murderers have.

WHY YOU NEED THIS Let’s face it. The Police are being defunded. Violent criminals are being released to the streets. And they’re making it harder and harder for the good guys to protect themselves.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul thinks guns have no place in houses of worship. Jack Wilson would like a word.

The next time some anti-gunner asks you why you don’t “just call the cops” instead of arming yourself … … show them this article from the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA). For decades, America’s anti-gunners have been smugly informing America’s gun owners that our firearms won’t protect us against a home invasion, armed robbery,…

Crockett and Tubbs have nothing on the National Shooting Sports Foundation!

Ever wondered what Mad Max: Thunderdome would look like in America? Ask Seattle!
