Gun Control’s Relentless March Hits a Major Roadblock

Pete shields handgun control inc The battle over gun control has reached a defining moment, and the tide is turning. Let me start by invoking the uncompromising words of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Despite the blatant clarity of this statement, countless politicians have tried to twist its meaning to suit their own agendas. They’ve claimed that the term “militia” refers solely to government-sanctioned groups, conveniently ignoring the fact that official militias have always had access to arms. The Founding Fathers intended this right to apply to ordinary citizens – you and your neighbors – as the ultimate safeguard against tyranny. No matter how fervently gun control advocates muddy the waters, the Second Amendment remains an individual right, vital to the preservation of liberty. The Truth About Gun Control A...

The Tactics of Gun Control Zealots

I first became aware of the concerted efforts to dismantle the Second Amendment as we know it back in the 1960s. It was then that I realized just how relentless these anti-gun advocates are, and they haven't stopped since. For years, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) ignored blatant violations of the Second Amendment. They hadn’t taken a case on this issue since United States v.

They absurdly claimed that short-barreled shotguns had no military application—despite the military’s use of 12-gauge trench guns at the time. The Court did, however, acknowledge that those weapons useful to the military were indeed protected under the Second Amendment But they refused to protect them.  The Miller ruling ...

No Lie Was Off Limits to the Late Sarah Brady in Her Quest to Disarm Law-Abiding Americans.

Baltimore, MD — Sarah Brady had been the face of Gun Control in America for more than three decades.  However today at age 73 she has succumbed to a bout of pneumonia.    Brady became the convenient standard bearer for the forces that hate all guns and gun rights.  This after a armed madman wounded her husband James Brady who was President Ronald Reagan’s Press Secretary during a 1981assassination attempt.  Brady led a very deceptive campaign that was intended to incrementally outlaw all firearms.  She cleverly began to change firearm adjectives and successfully demonized firearms based on simple cosmetics. Like Brady most Americans were ignorant about guns.  She renamed all the firearms that looked somewhat scary as assault weapons.  Assault rifles were actually classic military combat weapons and were by that definition all fully automatic.  That meant one pull of the trigger could cause the weapon to ...
