Guns Siezed In Virginia's First Red Flag Case :: 08/03/2020
We here at Bearing Arms haven’t been real fans of “red flag” laws. That’s not likely to change, either. While it may have sounded good in the immediate aftermath of Parkland, during the cold light of day, the whole idea falls apart. It’s still taking guns from people who haven’t broken any laws, no matter how you cut it.
SPLC's New Attack on Gun Owners :: 08/02/2020
The nonsense from the Southern Poverty Law Center continues. The SPLC, which doesn’t actually do poverty law because it’s too busy labeling everyone with insufficient melanin in their skin as racist, would like to turn back the clock on Stand Your Ground laws. In a new report, they claim with no real evidence or analysis, that the laws promote killings of blacks by whites.

As the summer of 2020 dawned, left-wing radical groups began rioting and taking over parts of America’s cities. While this specific form of left-wing violence is new, left-wing violence itself is far from new in the United States.
CA Man's Gun Siezed Over WrongThought :: 07/31/2020
In George Orwell’s 1984, the world first heard of the concept of “thought crime.” No, Orwell didn’t invent the concept, but he named it. The idea that even thinking incorrect things could, potentially, become a criminal act.
Democrat Campaign Platform Turns 2A Rights Into A Privilege :: 07/31/2020
The 2020 Democratic National Convention is scheduled to take place August 17-20th in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but we’re already getting a sneak peek at the party’s platform, including its plank on gun control. The document as written clearly demonstrates a hostility not only towards the Second Amendment itself, but all those Americans who choose to exercise their right to keep and bear arms.

The man who shot and killed a protester carrying an AK-47 during a demonstration in downtown Austin last weekend is now telling his side of the story.

Anti-Gunners' Proof Good Guys With Guns Are Fiction Misses :: 07/30/2020
For people on the pro-gun side, we often cite the “good guy with a gun” as the ultimate deterrent to mass shootings. If enough people were carrying firearms lawfully, we wouldn’t see so many mass shootings.

What's to stop the far-left social-media giants from rigging the election with free-speech bans? :: 07/30/2020
Yesterday was one of those watershed moments of history that set out in stark relief why we and the cause of liberty are in such dire straits. You try to remain optimistic in these times. However, one of the dangers of knowing too much about the past is that it’s too easy to see how events will accelerate.
Everytown for Gun Safety's Stunning Hypocrisy :: 07/29/2020
Evergreen State gun rights activists are stunned at what appears to be hypocrisy of anti-gun billionaire Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety, which sent out a pair of emails in recent days, one complaining about the National Rifle Association’s ability to raise $1 million in June, and the other reminding recipients about the $60 million it plans to spend to help elect “gun sense candidates.”
Gun Sales and Background Checks: Obama’s Bogus 40 Percent Stat (Repost-1/17/2013) :: 07/29/2020
Of all the gun-control measures touted by President Obama on Wednesday, the one that got top billing was a dramatic tightening of background checks on gun purchasers. Obama himself said the need was urgent because “40 percent of all gun purchases are conducted without a background check.” But before we make the most sweeping changes in federal firearms law since the 1960s, shouldn’t we at least examine the validity of that figure? It’s about as dubious as they come.
The Black NRA: How The NAAGA Is Changing The Gun Conversation In America :: 07/29/2020
The National Rifle Association has traditionally been associated with a certain type of person: rural, male, and definitely white. The National African American Gun Association, or NAAGA, is changing all that, but although they're the largest minority gun group in the world, it's likely that you've never heard of them.

I often write about the latest developments in the election area, including court decisions and legislative and regulatory changes.

How Does New York City Get Away With This? :: 07/28/2020
“Under New York law, it is a crime to possess a firearm,” held the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in U.S. v. Sanchez-Villar (2004). This ruling was based on the state’s ban on the possession of an unlicensed handgun. This Court also said that police officers who see a gun are “justified in seizing it because of its ‘immediately apparent’ incriminating character.” This prohibition did not offend the Second Amendment, said this ruling, because “the right to possess a gun is clearly not a fundamental right.”
