An Important Note: Please repeatedly contact your state’s two U.S. Senators by phone and e-mail and demand that they over-ride the unelected Senate Parliamentarian’s recent bogus ruling that the Hearing Protection Act and the SHORT Act did not qualify as “tax measures” under the Byrd Rule. Clearly, the National Firearms Act of 1934 IS INDEED part of the Federal tax code, and any modification to NFA-’34 is indeed “tax-related.”  Tell your Senators:  Vote NO on the entire bill, unless the Hearing Protection Act and the SHORT Act are fully restored! If they can overrule the Senate Parliamentarian on Senator Dan…

A new analysis reveals a strong statistical correlation between gun ownership rates and gun deaths across the United States, suggesting that higher prevalence of firearms significantly contributes to gun violence. The analysis indicates that about 70% of the variance in gun deaths among the 50 states can be accounted for by the number of adults who own guns, while mental health statistics show no significant correlation with gun-related fatalities. With over 200 mass shootings reported in the U.S. this year alone, the conversation surrounding gun control gains urgency. Researchers suggest that while mental illness is often blamed for gun violence,…

The Harrisburg Gun Show, held on October 10-11, showcased an extensive array of firearms and outdoor gear, highlighting both licensed sellers and the much-debated gun show loophole. Over 149 vendors offered rifles, shotguns, and an assortment of survival gear, with many attendees treating the event as a must-visit for enthusiasts across the United States. Amidst the vibrant display of merchandise—from vintage military rifles to quirky items like “Kalashnikitty” T-shirts—questions of legality arise as unlicensed sellers capitalize on state laws that allow them to sell long guns without conducting background checks. Notably, Pennsylvania’s regulations permit such transactions without verifying the seller…

An Apache Junction police officer, Gabriel Facio, is in critical condition following a shooting incident involving a “ghost gun,” a type of untraceable firearm assembled from kits and parts. The assailant, identified as 37-year-old Roger Nunez, used this weapon in the attack, highlighting the troubling rise in ghost gun-related violence, which has surged by nearly 1,600% from 2017 to 2023 according to federal agencies. Ghost guns, lacking serial numbers and subject to minimal regulations, have become increasingly common in criminal activities, with thousands linked to homicide and violent crimes. The ease of access to these firearms, compounded by the absence…

The National Rifle Association (NRA) steps into the debate surrounding gun shows at Nashville’s city-owned fairgrounds, urging local officials not to cancel events that have occurred for over 30 years. NRA lobbyist Erin Luper argues that a proposed community discussion on the future of these shows, which often draw large crowds, is unnecessary and politically motivated. She emphasizes that less than 1% of guns used in crimes originate from gun shows, challenging claims made by gun control advocates. Concerns have been raised about the sale of controversial merchandise at these events, including items featuring inflammatory imagery, prompting calls for tighter…

The U.S. Supreme Court delivers unanimous rulings on significant issues, including employment discrimination, gun manufacturers, and religious tax exemptions. Among the decisions, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s opinion establishes protections for straight employees facing workplace discrimination, rejecting the higher legal bar previously imposed on majority-group plaintiffs. In a notable ruling, the Court dismisses Mexico’s lawsuit against U.S. gun manufacturers, citing insufficient evidence of their liability in illegal gun trafficking. Furthermore, the Court rules in favor of Catholic Charities, emphasizing the constitutional principle of religious neutrality, which could result in a broader range of religious organizations qualifying for tax exemptions. These decisions…
