The legislature passed several anti-gun bills out of policy committees and passed eight anti-gun bills onto the Governor’s desk, two of which he

Perhaps we can all cut back? Rhetorical question: Are you unhappy with today’s gasoline prices? Then why not do something about it? Oil companies aren’t going to help us.

Anti-Second Amendment politicians returned to Albany late this week and did the bidding of Gov. Kathy Hochul. She called the Legislature back into an “extraordinary” session this week.

It has been 100 years since my father and his family left the beautiful Bosporus in Constantinople. No one likes to suddenly leave their home, but they had been included in the “exchange of populations,” as it was quaintly called, between Turkey and Greece. This followed the genocide of their people, the Greeks, including the
“Our legislation would not only help prevent school shootings, but do so while still protecting the constitutional rights of millions of law-abiding Americans.” WASHINGTON, D.C. (Texas Insider Report) — U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and John Barrasso (R-WY) introduced the “Safe Kids, Safe Schools, Safe Communities Act of 2022” earlier today, which calls for over $38
On the heels of last week’s landmark Supreme Court decision in NYSRPA v. Bruen, Majority Democrats in Trenton doubled down on even more Second Amendment infringements by passing yet another package of gun bills. This is the third gun-control package put forward by Gov. Phil Murphy, as the previous packages continue to be abject failures.
To paraphrase one of Jesus’ teachings, you cannot serve both God and guns, says Franciscan Fr. Daniel P. Horan. “To those trying to square the circle of their demonstrated love of guns and alleged love of God, I ask: What is your true religion?” he writes. And NCR political columnist Michael Sean Winters says that
A gunman recently massacred 19 children and two teachers with a legally-obtained AR-15-style rifle at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, a small town of about 16,000. A shooting at a high school in Parkland, Florida, killed 17 people only four years ago. The Uvalde shooting occurred a decade after the massacre at Sandy Hook
After striking down restrictions on carrying concealed firearms in California and other states, the Supreme Court told an appeals court Thursday to reconsider the legality of California’s ban on gun magazines that can hold more than 10 cartridges. The court’s order, in an appeal by an affiliate of the National Rifle Association, signaled the potentially
The federal bipartisan gun package passed into law late last month has been hailed as historic progress on an issue that has gridlocked Congress for decades. But the gun control measures in it are less robust than what Florida’s Republican-controlled Legislature, in its own moment of fragile bipartisanship, passed in 2018 during the aftershocks from

With the nation still reeling from recent mass shootings in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, N.Y., Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis condemned the Supreme Court’s ruling to overturn the New York State gun law that restricts who can carry a firearm in public. “As we’re struggling with the pain of Uvalde and Buffalo while confronting the deadly crisis of gun violence fueled by NRA gun laws, today’s Supreme Court decision fuels the crisis and endangers
One week after our landmark victory in NYSRPA v. Bruen, the Supreme Court issued orders in two other NRA-ILA backed cases. Those cases, ANJRPC v. Bruck and Duncan v. Bonta, challenge New Jersey and California laws that ban magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. The Third and Ninth Circuits, over dissents,
Today, the Senate pulled House Bill 49 from the Committee on Rules and Operations and will send it to the floor for final passage.

Robert J.
