VIDEO: Toledo police do all they can to prevent gun "buyback" participants from getting top dollar for their firearms

7:00am Wednesday, June 19, 2013
by Chad D. Baus Gun "buyback" programs, misnamed because a government entity can't "buy back" something it never owned to begin with, have been proven to be a failure at preventing violent crime. According to the federal government, gun 'buybacks' have "no effect" on preventing violent crimes. ( Preventing Crime: What Works, What Doesn't, What's Promising, National Institute of Justice, July 1998...

Bill Introduced to "Get State Department Out of the Gun Control Business"

3:00pm Tuesday, June 18, 2013
As longtime readers--and especially gun collectors--know, the State Department has often stood in the way of importing historic military firearms from overseas. The issue was highlighted early in the Obama administration, when the department first approved, and then denied, the importation and sale of collectible, American-made M1 Garand rifles and M1 carbines originally furnished to South Korea...

Op-Ed: U.N. arms treaty a direct threat to American gun ownership

3:00pm Monday, June 17, 2013
by Chris W. Cox Oxfam America has long served as a reliable cheerleader for nearly all misguided United Nations policy. However, Oxfam America President Raymond Offenheiser's Friday op-ed ("President should ignore fear mongering and sign arms treaty") is an exceptional illustration of this blind allegiance. Offenheiser wants us to simultaneously believe the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty is both the...

Editor's Note: If the below case doesn't make you mad enough, check out this recent case where a North Carolina teen was been expelled and given a felony charge for accidentally leaving his shotgun in his truck at school and calling his mother to come pick it up when he realized the mistake.

Anti-Gun Researchers Saddling Up to Ride Again

3:00pm Monday, June 10, 2013
With the racetrack dust having barely settled after this year's Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, and with the final leg of the Triple Crown--the Belmont Stakes--scheduled for this weekend, we can't help but marvel at the incredible ability of a horse, with 120 pounds on its back, to sustain better than a 35 mph pace over up to 1½ miles, often topping 40 mph in the home stretch. But no matter...

Op-Ed: Why gun control just got even more difficult

3:00pm Friday, June 07, 2013
by John Lott Gun control, an already difficult task, just got even more difficult. The 3D printing revolution is well under way. This wonderful new technology will allow small companies and even individuals to manufacture a wide range of items, such as medical devices that fit each individual’s unique size and shape. However, it is increasingly obvious that guns and gun parts can be made, even...

Media-backed "PolitiFact Ohio" tries, fails to disprove BFA Chairman Jim Irvine wrong on protection orders' impotence

7:00am Thursday, June 06, 2013
by Chad D. Baus Last month, State Rep. Bob Hagan (D-Youngstown) introduced House Bill 160, a gun control bill that would force any person named in a domestic violence protection order to surrender their firearms to law enforcement within 24 hours. We quickly pointed out the many flaws with Hagan's proposal, including the fact that, by statistics Hagan himself cited, 20% of women who are killed by...

The truth about kids and guns

7:00am Tuesday, June 04, 2013
by Larry S. Moore Cynthia Tucker is the latest liberal journalist to use the death of a child to promote the agenda of gun control.
