Biden creates Gun Violence office by fiat

Props to a good optics company

Have a shameless commercial plug for y’all. But I think you will see the point. At a shopping visit to a local gun store, the owner (a former dealer for them) told me I should shop Vortex. I know they are regarded as good optics, on a par with the better mainstream folks like Leupold […]
So who stops mass shootings?

Surprisingly to some: You do. You have probably seen the trope…”so where’s the good guy with a gun?” when a mass event takes place.

In the wake of two shootings last year, Serbia has stepped up its gun control rhetoric in a way the Brady Campaign and others can only dream of: In response to the twin tragedies, President Aleksandar Vucic set out on a mission to cleanse Serbia of firearms. Unlike most European countries, Serbia has many illegal […]

Here’s another case, also in Baltimore, which doesn’t yet have a happy ending of any type: Medically retired U.S. Army Staff Sgt.
