Several pro-gun groups banded together to file a lawsuit against California Attorney General Xavier Becerra last week in a unified effort to stop the state from banning ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. The law, scheduled to go into effect on July 1, also requires gun owners who already possess such magazine to turn them into the proper ...

We’re only two days into the 115th Congress, and you could argue that Republicans have already made two easily-avoided PR errors. With their (quickly rescinded) vote to cripple the Office of Independent Ethics, they signaled to the public that they no longer wanted to be held to any kind of ethical oversight. Mistake number one. No doubt about that one. ...

FBI Director James Comey is under fire for his politically-influenced handling of the Hillary Clinton investigation, but he deserves credit for bringing some common sense to the Black Lives Matter narrative. Speaking to the International Chiefs of Police Conference on Sunday, Comey said that a handful of videos were building a myth of racism in law enforcement. “It is a ...

When the Missouri legislature overrode the state’s Democrat governor last week, making constitutional carry the law in one fell swoop, the New York Times Editorial Board decided they’d seen enough.

We never let poor Jeff Avery live it down. Among those of us in Mr. Sterling’s 11th-grade homeroom class, no one was more excited for our upcoming field trip. The thought of touring the local power plant generated an altogether different kind of electricity in Jeff. The rest of us were more interested in a day out of school. We ...

The implications of that statistic are worrying enough, but some of Obama’s recent pardons seem to run counter to the anti-gun fervor that has dominated his administration. As reported by the Washington Times, 107 federal inmates ...

Kenneth and Colleen Shults, a foster family from Fairmont, Illinois, are suing their home state and accusing the Department of Children and Family Services of violating their constitutional rights. According to the lawsuit, the Illinois DCFS requires prospective foster families to either certify that they have no guns in the home or abide by overly-oppressive regulations. For Kenneth, who works ...

When was the last time 89% of Americans agreed on anything? In the wake of the Orlando massacre that took the lives of 49 people and injured more than 50 others, Americans are finally united on at least one aspect of gun control. According to a new CBS poll, 89% of the country (92% of Republicans, 97% of Democrats, and ...

One of Orlando’s most popular gay nightclubs, Pulse, became a horror show Saturday night when a man opened fire, eventually killing approximately 50 people and injuring 42 others. SWAT officers ultimately killed the assailant as dawn arrived, and all early indications pointed to an act of Islamic terrorism. Speaking to reporters at a news conference Sunday morning, Orange County Sheriff ...

This week, the Missouri legislature passed a new gun bill that would dramatically increase the strength of the Second Amendment. The bill, vigorously opposed by national gun-control groups like Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety, will now go to Gov.
