When I was a kid, U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop put warning labels on packs of cigarettes. The evidence at the time, and subsequent “science” showed us that smoking cigarettes can lead to many health problems, cancer being one of them. Cancer can kill you.
When C. Everett Koop died in 2013 he was lauded as a “rock star” Surgeon General because of his many works including reducing smoking rates and battling AIDS. He was deeply religious and spoke of respecting individual American rights.

Over the last 2 weeks, the courts have issued quite a few decisions. Some good… some… well… maybe not so good.
The US Supreme Court overturned the bump stock ban. FOAC-Institute has ALWAYS opposed the “ban” of plastic things and we are even more opposed to “redefining” words to suit anti-liberty claims. Such as those that stated that accessories or plastic or wood or metal pieces were “guns” or “machine guns”. The June 14th decision sets POSITIVE precedent and is a very good thing.

The last couple of weeks have been very educational.
FOAC-Institute is a non-partisan organization. We are neither for nor against any one particular party. However, one cannot ignore the fact that the Biden Administration, MANY of the Democrats in Washington D.C., and those that support the Biden Regime, are “ALL IN” for gun control. Every chance they get, they cry for bans, restrictions, confiscations, limitations, and red flags. All of which ONLY effect law-abiding gun owners, NOT the criminals that commit violent crime.

Someone should sell tickets. Just when you think things could not get any bizarre-er….
Today useful idiots march, protest, disrupt graduations and stop certain people from freely moving about campus. Today criminals run rampant with the help of “progressive” DA’s. Today millions of “undocumented” illegal immigrants freely flow across our border.

Have you considered the worst-case scenario?

Yesterday millions of people in the United States put on special glasses and looked up to the sky at the eclipse. Many people left work early, schools were off, and people prepared for weeks to arrange plans to travel to distant places to take part in this twice (maybe thrice) in a lifetime event. I too participated. My son and I back timed Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and we sat and listened to the record and saw the eclipse in time with the music.
Once it was over… it was over.
FOAC-Institute Newsletter and a CALL TO ACTION - March, 25, 2024 :: 03/25/2024
Well…. It has happened.
Thanks to an “Obama Appointed” Judge, Sharon Johnson Coleman, gun control has been COMPLETLEY thrown out the window.

The State of the Union address did not surprise anyone.
Joe Biden used it as a partisan stump speech, once more pledging his support for the limitation and restriction of your natural born right to self-defense.

We have returned from the Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg!
What a wonderful opportunity for our organization to get out in front of new audiences. FOAC-Institute is better known to more Pennsylvanians and Americans from other parts of the country. While there, FOAC-Institute leadership built and strengthened relationships with other organizations of like mind in order to work together to advance the cause of liberty and the protection of our most basic right; the right to keep and bear arms to protect ourselves and those that we love.

Who exactly do these people work for?
There are elected officials, appointed bureaucrats, and alphabet agency payroll minions that are attacking freedom loving and self-sufficient Americans while at the same time going out of their way to empower criminals and non-citizens.
FOAC-ILLEA Legal News of Monumental Decision on Gun Rights :: 01/19/2024
We have great news from yesterday! Thursday morning our attorney Joshua Prince, Esq. reached out to me and informed us all of a monumental decision made by the Third Circuit. The court held that Pennsylvania's banning of 18-to-21 year olds from carrying firearms outside of their homes during a state of emergency is unconstitutional.
Congrats Josh on a great victory for the young adults of this Commonwealth and gun rights advocates everywhere! This may well lay the groundwork for some future corrective measures with licenses to carry firearms and similar infringements on our young women and men's rights.

15 days into 2024 and the anti-gun establishment in Harrisburg is unloading both barrels at your 2nd Amendment rights. This week the anti-gun leadership is likely going to run MULTIPLE anti-gun / anti-liberty bills in the Pennsylvania House that are designed to limit, restrict and abolish your individual right to keep and bear arms.
The architects of tyranny are actively chipping away at the 2nd Amendment and Article 1 Section 21 of the PA Constitution by attacking your right to protect yourself and those that you love. They are promoting the agenda of the elected class and elites from across the country that espouse that YOU should be dependent on and subservient to the government.

Happy New Year!
Each time this is said, many folks see images of champagne glasses, a baby in a top hat, fireworks, and a colorful glass ball “dropping” down a pole in Times Square. Some folks are sad to see another year click by, while others are glad that they have a fresh new start with a new year of opportunities for better things to come.

We are 2 weeks out from Christmas and the Grinch of gun control slinks through the halls at all levels of government. FOAC-Institute is vigilant and hard at work defending the 2A and Article 1 Section 21 of the PA Constitution from the anti-gun forces in Harrisburg and across the Commonwealth. However, gun owners cannot take the “someone else is dealing with this” approach.
Everyone MUST do their part.

Firearms Owners Against Crime Institute for Legal, Legislative, and Educational Action IS Pennsylvania’s preeminent pro-gun / anti-crime organization. We are dedicated to educating Pennsylvanians and elected officials about rights, the laws, and legislation. We hold elected officials accountable to honor their oath to obey, uphold and protect the Pennsylvania and US Constitution, chiefly Article 1 Section 21 and the 2nd Amendment. In the past when elected officials and appointed bureaucrats fail to obey, uphold and protect the Constitution(s) and violate the individual rights of Pennsylvanians, we hold them accountable in the courts.
We do a LOT. Hence… we have a big name.

I remember how proud I was to vote in my first election back in 1992.

As the world around us continues to unravel, more Americans are going to the gun shop to buy a firearm to defend their family.
Police average response times across the country have doubled. Countless hordes of adult aliens have crossed our borders illegally and are somewhere in our communities planning God knows what. Soros funded DA’s across the country are letting violent criminals run rampant in our communities.

Once more we see how when government restricts the individual right to self-defense, people are harmed or killed. Take for instance, RIGHT NOW, in Israel.
People are dying because the government cannot protect them…. And these people are largely not “allowed” to protect themselves. However, the Israeli government is loosening their restriction on individual citizen’s ability to carry a gun for protection.
