Same then (47 years ago) as it is now....Conservative.

If the so called “loophole” is closed, the result will be that the likely minuscule number of criminals obtaining firearms at gun shows or from law abiding strangers would become even less. Criminals who are already selling firearms to other criminals are not going to start obeying another law. It’...

No waiting periods. Period I've given 'waiting periods' considerable thought over the years and can only come up with a single situation where it 'might' be beneficial and that is in cases where a person is distraught and wants to end their life (suicide) that very day. It is possible that with the...

I might be misunderstanding the meaning and intent of the poll. We already have a MANDATORY universal background check for purchasing firearms. It goes through the FBI. In which case, the poll makes 0 sense to me. And it seems a little biased with not exactly an exhaustive list of options for answe...

https://www.gao.gov/assets/700/694290.pdf ATF Referred about 13,000 Firearms Denials to Its Field Divisions for Investigation in Fiscal Year 2017, of Which USAOs Have Prosecuted 12 Cases. Yep a whole twelve! Might not hurt to tighten things up a little in this case. Different than 'expanding' backgr...

Also at the NRA Personal Protection Expo, Paul Howe said we should stop using the left's terminology of "active shooter," instead using "active mass killer". Fortunately his facility is right here in my neighborhood and the PD here (Swat Team) get a lot of their training there.

Hypothetical question: You, your SO and maybe your spawn, are in your neighborhood Walmart on a Saturday afternoon looking for bird feed, kitty litter, and some snackers, mixers, etc. Suddenly, you hear what you perceive to be gunshots! You are legally carrying your fully loaded, cocked and locked ...

"https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/tallahassee-florida-stabbing/index.html" I guess we need to ban high capacity military grade assault knives? Or maybe stop hiring known Felons with an extensive rap-sheet. I recognize anyone can have 'anger management' issues, but those who have proven th...

Was his other region ok? Hopefully he has a full recovery and "operates" as usual! I'm thinking yes, and that would explain why he was in such 'good spirits'. IF you have to be shot, best for it to happen to parts of your anatomy that come in pairs. What I am confused about...is the locat...

Good Night Nurse! I am beginning to think millennials are all severely brain damaged. This was just nothing short of a stupid move. I to like blamin’ millennials for most anything also but only when the age fits. I don’t think 18yo is a millennial. I like to blame baby boomers and generation y for ...

Sadly, there is no shortage of folks that get up each morning and have themselves a Big Bowl of Stupid.

It's just ridiculous 'some' of the shootings that occur. I certainly understand the need for an officer to protect him/herself from an attack (or threat) of a large breed, viscous dog. But there are too many officers with an irrational fear of dogs. This leads them to shooting the animal instead of ...
