When our Founding Fathers felt their tea was being taxed unfairly, ostensibly to pay back the debt England incurred during the French & Indian War, they didn’t just sit around and do nothing. No, they boarded a cargo ship loaded with tea and tossed it in the harbor. They were so polite about the whole thing that, though they smashed open a lock securing the cargo, they brought a new lock to the ship the next morning. After that, “No taxation without representation” became a battle cry leading into the American Revolution.Since then, Americans have…

The Supreme Court will meet in conference this Friday, and among the cases scheduled for discussion are two that deal with bans on commonly owned ammunition magazines, as well as a three challenges to state and local bans on so-called assault weapons.

The 3D printer industry and the gun world have an overlap, but not necessarily an intentional one. A lot of people in the 3D printing world aren’t exactly into guns, and while there are many others who are, the truth is that these printers can be used by a lot of different people with a lot of different goals. That’s kind of what’s cool about them.But people like Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, to say nothing of lawmakers in other anti-gun states, think that the government can force 3D printer manufacturers to include technology that will…

The United States has taken control of another oil tanker for defying ruler Donald Trump’s “quarantine.” The Pentagon said that “the vessel tried to defy President Trump’s quarantine – hoping to slip away.
