First Time Gun Buyer: Younger and Minority
From The Trace:
Pandemic first-time gun buyers are younger and more diverse. That doesn’t mean they’re more receptive to gun reform. Americans bought more than 40 million guns in 2020 and 2021, the two highest sales years on record, according to our gun sales tracker. About 5 percent of adults in America purchased a gun for the first time between March 2020 and March 2022, according to a new survey from NORC at the University of Chicago, bringing the total number of adults living in armed households to 46 percent. More diverse, younger, but with similar views
Protecting Freedom Requires Vigilance
From Ammoland:
The problem with freedom is that it requires constant guarding. If we practice Freedom with abandon and freely choose pleasant comfortable activities other than guarding freedom, it can easily be taken away from us as we watch.
AZ State Rep Tells Woman To Stay Home If She’s Concerned About Being Attacked
From Ammoland:
Democrat Arizona state Senator Lupe Contreras—the assistant minority leader—is being criticized for reacting to the concerns of a female citizen speaking in support of legislation to expand her gun rights, by telling the woman that if she’s fearful of attack she should “Stay home behind closed doors.”
When Marijuana and Guns Come Together
From The Truth About Guns:
KING5 in Seattle reported on a pot shop that’s hired armed security following a pair of armed robberies in recent months. They must have found the only pot shop in America that didn’t already have a guard with a gun. Then again, many pot shops in Washington State advertise themselves as “no guns” locations for customers. They also (obviously) have recreational pharmaceuticals and, thanks to banking regulations, deal exclusively in cash, making them ideal targets for violent criminals.
23 States And Over Half The Population Can Carry Without A Permit
From The Washington Post:
On Monday, Ohio became the 23rd state to enact a law eliminating permits as a requirement for concealed carry. The Buckeye State closely followed Alabama, where Gov. Kay Ivey signed a similar law on March 10.
The back-to-back wins for gun-rights advocates who want to see fewer restrictions on the Second Amendment signal how partisan divides and relentless activism at the state level are significantly reshaping the landscape around gun possession.
Officers Association Against No-Knock Raids
From National Tactical Officers Association:
We can all agree that there is no easy answer, but there is a correct answer: No-knock search warrants, though well-intended, no longer pass the test of tactical science, risk mitigation practices, and liability-conscious decision-making.
Washington Residents Buying Magazines Who Don’t Own Guns
From KIRO:
“People who don’t even buy guns are coming in and buying magazines just because they might buy a gun someday,” said Teasdale.
The Trace Questions If Firearms Insurance Will Work
From The Trace:
But as we pored over the particulars of San Jose’s ordinance and interviewed insurance experts, we found that the plan may end up not being as effective as proponents have advertised: It will only cover shootings that occur under a narrow and specific set of circumstances, providing little incentive for gun owners to adopt safer practices.
The Real World Demonstration of Why Gun Rights Are Human Rights
From The Federalist:
The world is captivated by Ukraine’s resistance to Russian invasion, especially since much of Ukraine’s resistance comes from ordinary citizens taking up arms in defense of their homeland.
Ukraine has a fighting chance in part because it has taken dramatic steps to provide its people firearms. More than 25,000 automatic rifles and 10 million rounds of ammunition have been distributed to volunteers in Kyiv.
Support International Association for the Protection of Civilian Arms Rights
IAPCAR is leading the way in the right to bear arms globally.
Learning The Wrong Lesson. For Gun Haters, Gun Control Can Solve Anything.
From The Press Herald:
But how do we start a debate about global gun control to put pressure on someone like Putin to stop waging wars on innocent people?
….everyone everywhere should start talking about demilitarizing the world, or guns will undoubtedly kill many more millions in many more cities.
Gun control will not stop tyrants. What stops tyrants is a citizenry that is armed and trained in those arms. When every citizen is a possible combatant/insurgent that makes tyrants and despots think twice about controlling their own people or invading another people. To prevent more atrocities we need gun proliferation across the world. Everyone on this planet should know how to use a gun even if they don’t like them. Knowledge is power and knowing how to use a gun is even more powerful.
Bill Would Eliminate “Any Other Weapon” From NFA
From Guns.com:
The bill, the “No Backdoor Gun Control Act,” was introduced on Wednesday by U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, a Texas Republican, and co-sponsored by 23 other members of the GOP. The lawmakers say the reform is needed to ensure federal gun regulators couldn’t use the AOW section to violate Second Amendment rights – and would be especially important if other bills delete short-barreled rifles and short-barreled shotguns from the NFA.
AZ House Passes Anti Financial Discrimination Bill
From The Truth About Guns:
The Arizona House voted Wednesday to penalize businesses that refuse to do business with firearms companies by barring them from state contracts.
