United States – -(AmmoLand.com)- You have to hand it to Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) and Representative Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), the title of the legislation they introduced in their respective bodies has two huge lies in just five words.

New California Sheriff Reveals Shall Issue Policy For Concealed Carry :: 08/16/2021
Shasta County is one of the largest counties in California, with about three times the square miles as the state of Rhode Island.

New York City To Pay Criminals Not To Shoot People :: 08/15/2021
When I was a kid, I got money for good grades on my report card and doing chores around the house. What I didn’t get money for is not screwing up. What I got was not being grounded, which seemed like a pretty good deal for me. However, New York City figures they can make the deal even better.

Wisconsin Negligent Discharge Shows Futility Of Gun Laws :: 08/15/2021

Gun Industry Responds To Bloomberg Spending For Midterms :: 08/14/2021
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has absolutely no problem blowing his vast wealth in a quixotic quest to essentially destroy the Second Amendment.

Crazy Murderers, Insane Politicians, and Frustrated Voters :: 08/13/2021
They get days and days of press coverage. We looked at their pictures on the TV and in the magazines. We quickly noticed that something seemed off about them. If you’re like me, that was your first impression of mass murderers. It turns out that our first impressions were right. New research said that the vast majority of mass murderers have severe and untreated mental health problems. Those findings come from a study that looked at mass murderers in the United States over the last 35 years. The proportions are staggering. Equally staggering are the political manipulations that delay treatment.
Does Poll Find Broad Support For Universal Background Checks? :: 08/13/2021

Media Freaks Over Incoming New York Governor :: 08/12/2021
Governor Andrew Cuomo will leave the office of Governor of New York within the next two weeks. Why he felt the need to put in a two-week notice when no one would care if he just left is beyond me, but he did.
