Starbucks and Guns

8:00am Thursday, October 10, 2013
by Jeff Knox When Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz posted a public letter asking gun owners not to bring their guns into Starbucks stores, some in the media and anti-rights crowd declared it a victory, while some in the gun-rights crowd called it a declaration of war. It was neither. As a company, Seattle-based Starbucks tends to lean left, supporting "progressive" causes and candidates, but when the...

Senate.gov Invents Second Amendment Controversy

8:00am Tuesday, October 08, 2013
Perhaps we were too harsh on textbook publishers last week for botching the proper interpretation of the Second Amendment, as even those in charge of the official website of a body sworn to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States" apparently can't be expected to get it right. The official website of the United States Senate features a "Virtual Reference Desk" section on the...

Op-Ed: Bloomberg's Puppets Turn Their Sights on Ohioans' Second Amendment Rights

4:00pm Monday, October 07, 2013
by Ken Blackwell By now, you really would have thought Michael Bloomberg would have learned his lesson. The out-of-touch New York City mayor has lately made it his business to be in everyone else's business - whether that means trying to decide for New York residents what they are allowed to eat or drink, or trying to tell people from other states what to think of their elected officials. More...

Not a Peep from Obama: Violent Crime Now at a 42-Year Low

8:00am Monday, October 07, 2013
Last week, the FBI released its national crime report for 2012. By a slight margin, the nation's violent crime rate decreased in 2012--relative to 2011--making it the lowest it has been since 1970.

The nation's murder rate was unchanged in 2012; still lower than any time since 1963 and at nearly an all-time low...

Lies of the Lead Menace

8:00am Friday, October 04, 2013
by Jeff Knox The California legislature is on the verge of passing a bill banning the use of traditional ammunition - bullets containing lead - for hunting statewide. The justification for the ban is that the giant, endangered carrion eater, the California Condor, is seriously threatened by lead poisoning from ingesting bullet fragments in game animals. Proponents of the ban say that hunters...

Go West, Young Man! An Ohio Activist's Experience in the Colorado Recall Elections

8:00am Tuesday, October 01, 2013
by Sean Maloney Whether across the street, across town, across the state line, or across the country, we as EVCs or NRA-ILA Volunteers, should not limit our volunteerism by self-imposed geographic borders. What we offer as experienced grassroots activists is unique, highly respected by those we assist, and feared by those who oppose us and the liberty we fight to protect. Just because the area...

CONTACT YOUR SENATORS TODAY AND ASK THEM TO OPPOSE THE U.N. ARMS TRADE TREATY by Jim Shepherd When Secretary of State John Kerry signed the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty in New York [Wednesday], no one in the industry was really surprised.
