Op-Ed: Illegal Mayors

by C. D. Michel Incarcerating Michael Bloomberg may be the next news ironic item. If only! New York Mayor Bloomberg, America's self-appointed gun control financier and front man, established the group Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG).

Nanny Bloomberg’s War on the Constitution

by Jeff Knox About a month after the US Senate voted down a series of gun control amendments back in April, an article in the New Republic magazine boldly declared "This is How the NRA Ends: A Bigger, Richer, Meaner Gun Control Movement has Arrived." The article was a long diatribe regurgitating much of the stale tripe and distortion we've been hearing from the anti-rights movement for decades,...

Ohio's children need protection...period.

by Mindy Whited On July 27, the Cleveland Plain Dealer published an op-ed by Renuka Mayadev entitled " Ohio's children need protection from guns ." In the article, Mayadev cites several tragic accidental shootings involving Ohio children as reasons for which Ohio should pass new gun control laws. I am a mom to five children ages 3-20.

Piers Morgan Tells a Whopper

If you have the misfortune to be familiar with Piers Morgan, the British former tabloid "reporter" and "talent judge" known on this side of the Atlantic as CNN's most overbearing gun control proselytizer, you won't be surprised at what he did on Tuesday. It began during an interview with military history expert A.W.R. Hawkins, as Morgan pushed his theory that more gun ownership leads to more...
