DOJ Tells Anti-Gun Illinois to Stop Eating Paint
The U.S. Department of Justice has stepped into Illinois’ PICA litigation, and it’s beautiful. A couple of years back, the Illinois Democratic party machine decided that they simply didn’t care about what the Supreme Court said in Heller, McDonald, and Bruen. Rather than adhere to all of the recent SCOTUS rulings that clearly state that…

RELOADED! NRA 2.0 Comes Out Swinging in 2025
The nation’s oldest and largest civil-rights organization seemed to be on the ropes just a couple of years ago. Things have clearly changed. In the aftermath of a series of layoffs during the COVID-19 pandemic and a politically motivated lawsuit courtesy of one Letitia James (hey, Tish, how’s that mortgage?), things were starting to look…

Open Your Mouth & Close Your Eyes! Here’s Another Anti-Gun USAID Surprise …
Although I must say that, as mouthwash goes, it leaves a bit to be desired. Ever since DOGE began unveiling (and stopping) the unimaginable fraud and waste of USAID–the taxpayer-funded “soft power” department whose funding was essentially used as the Democratic National Convention’s slush fund–we’ve had revelations that are both enraging and hilarious. Today, the…

We Already Knew, BUT: NRA Exposes Shocking 911 Call
We here at Freedom’s Lodge join the NRA in our unapologetic pro-law enforcement stance, BUT: Our nation’s law enforcement agencies are designed and staffed by human beings. Human beings have some problems that we simply can’t escape. For example, we’re bound by the space/time continuum and cannot be in two places at once. If the…

One Toke Closer to the Line: Guns & Cannabis Ruling You Missed
Dear Trump Administration Justice Department: Weed like a word with you. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: How does it make any sense that the federal government still prohibits a substance that is legal in 47 states? How does it make any sense that the same prohibition means that citizens who do…

NRA: MORE Trump Wins for Gun Owners
The only Trump promise unfulfilled thus far: He said we’d get sick of winning, and we aren’t. Not even a little. We are, however, occasionally having trouble keeping up with the most high-energy, transparent, and trustworthy presidential administration we’ve seen in our lifetimes. There’s so much good news coming out every day that it’s easy…

NRA: Guns Terrify Canadians How Much? THIS MUCH.
“Invictus,” my rosy-red fundament. The Canadians have conquered themselves. “Invictus” means “unconquered” in Latin, and it’s a particularly ironic way to title a Canadian winter-sports event. What’s amazing about Canada is that it has always had very low violent crime rates, both before and after it banned handguns. In addition to that, most of the…

Sheriff is Back! NRA Stands for First & Second Amendment Against Specious Lawsuit
You know that scene in the Western movie when the good sheriff–whom everyone thought was dead–appears in the third act to save the day? “Yeah, that’s right,” he says, drawing his wheelgun, “I’m back.” In this particular metaphor, the good townspeople have been overrun for years by a nasty gang of outlaws who insisted that the…

NRA-ILA: NYC Subway More Dangerous Than the Gridiron
Ever read “Bonfire of the Vanities”? As the unofficial center of the free world, New York City has also represented a gun-banner’s daydream since it adopted the Sullivan Act over 100 years ago. When its mayor takes a tough-on-crime approach, as Rudy Giuliani did in the early ’00s, life in the city isn’t all that…

We Hope They Choke: Anti-Gun Banking Back in the News
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: The Founding Fathers didn’t miss much, but they missed something critical when they wrote the Second Amendment. If only they had thought to include one more clause: Keep, bear, and buy arms. Why’d they omit it? Well, because so much of the American Revolution was stoked…

Here’s Why Dems Think There Aren’t Any Good Guys with Guns
Why do otherwise intelligent-seeming Americans think there’s no such thing as “good guys with guns”? That question haunts a lot of Second Amendment advocates, including me. I’m not talking about anti-gun mouthpieces, but ordinary citizens who have become convinced that having a gun makes you umpteen-diddly-thousand percent more likely to hurt yourself with it than…
