Violent Crime Continues Decline (Even While Gun Ownership Increases)

12:10am Monday, December 28, 2009

By Bill Brassard Preliminary statistics released by the FBI for the first half of 2009 show that violent crime continues a downward trend that began in 2006.

OOPS: Associated Press publishes fair and balanced article on increase in gun-related officer deaths

12:05am Monday, December 28, 2009

By Chad D. Baus I don't know exactly how long Colleen Long has been employed by the Associated Press, but if the journalist publishes many more facts that expose the lies of the gun control movement, I expect she'll be visiting the unemployment lines very soon. In an article noting an increase in the number of officers killed in the line of duty by gunfire in 2009, Long departed from the anti-gun...

Divert tax money to pro-gun candidates for FREE!

12:10am Wednesday, December 23, 2009

By Jim Irvine This is the time of year when many make charitable contributions. Tax deductible is good, but I've got a much better deal for you. If you pay Ohio income tax this year, you are entitled to a $100 per couple ($50 per person) tax credit for donations to certain politicians. A credit is much different than a deduction.

The generosity and good will of Ohio hunters is having a major impact on needy Ohio families.

In fact with over 6 weeks of deer season still to go, 2009 donations to Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry are almost double what was donated for the entire 2008 season. If you are...
