A Missouri State Law That Declared Several Gun Laws As “Invalid” Has Been Overturned

Gun Owners of America spokesman Stephen Willeford explains why the overturning actually hurts gun owners more than one might think. Several of the United States have put their own interesting spin on “gun laws” into effect. However, Missouri’s take on disabling certain Federal gun laws was too much for one particular judge to bear. And it has left much room for debate. The law, deemed the Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA), had initially declared that … Read more

Justice Has Failed the Victims of Michigan State – And It Cannot Fail Again (By Michael Letts)

(Originally published in CNS News.) Sometimes things within the criminal justice system just don’t make sense. The way that the Federal Bureau of Investigation continues to go after the wrong people instead of focusing on the real criminals is ridiculous.

This 43-year old strolled onto the campus of Michigan State University Monday … Read more

Inflation and Democrat Policies are Turning Everyday Americans Into Criminals (By Michael Letts)

(Initially published in CNSNews.)  It should come as no surprise to anyone who has gone grocery shopping that inflation has been drivingprices of everything higher. In particular, egg prices have increased a whopping 60 percent from December 2021 to December 2022. Inflation is certainly contributing to this, but the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) says that a large part of the increase is the impact of avian flu on chickens. However, south of the U.S. border, in Mexico, … Read more

Do Liberals Secretly Support the Second Amendment? (By Michael Letts)

(Originally published on CNS News.) Do liberals actually support the Second Amendment? While they should, they are quick to show through their actions that they don’t.

However, what generally happens is that their actions only spur the sales of firearms as people rush to stock up on something that may disappear. Liberals are their … Read more

(Originally published on CNSNews If you simply listen to the evening news lately, it may sound like the country has gone crazy with everyone shooting one another.
