Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier just did something almost unheard of — he told an appeals court that his own state got a conviction wrong because it violated the Second Amendment. The case involves Christopher Morgan, who was convicted in Pennsylvania back in 2007 for carrying a firearm without a state license. Not a violent crime. Not a drug offense. Not a crime against another person. He was carrying a gun without a piece of paper saying he could. Fifteen years later, Morgan was stopped by a Florida officer. He voluntarily told the officer he had a pistol in his…
When the power goes out, most people assume they’re stuck with cold meals, food straight from the can, or boring snacks. But with a bit of planning and a few basic tools like a camp stove or grill and some cast-iron cookware, you can prepare hot, delicious meals even during a blackout.Whether you’re dealing with a short-term blackout or preparing for a long-term grid-down scenario, having a stockpile of non-perishable ingredients is a good idea. Canned meats, powdered milk and eggs, dried grains, and dehydrated fruits and vegetables can be transformed into everything from savory skillet dinners to warm breakfast…
A new law meant to reduce gun-involved suicides is set to take effect in Colorado later this year, but will it truly have an impact?Last session lawmakers approved a bill known as “Donna’s Law”, which sets up a voluntary “Do Not Sell” list allows residents to block themselves from purchasing a firearm. Colorado is the fifth state in the country to enact such the law, which is named after a woman named Donna Nathan, who took her own life eight years ago. Nathan’s daughter has been a vocal advocate of these “Do Not Sell” registries, which are already in…
United States ruler Donald Trump has raised the global tariff rate to 15%, up from 10%, just one day after the Supreme Court struck down most of his other instituted tariffs. But Trump said he’d find a way to get around the ruling. The U.S. government would find ways to impose other “new and legally permissible tariffs” in the coming months. He had earlier promised to launch investigations into potentially unfair foreign trade practices that could lead to additional tariffs. Trump’s Sweeping Tariffs Set To Hit Consumers Hard — From iPhones to Automobiles On Friday, America’s highest court ruled that the…
The United States Army defends the presence of a color guard at a national religious conference for Christianity that included Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth as the keynote speaker, calling its presence “patriotic” and “neutral” from endorsing particular beliefs.The National Religious Broadcasters (NRB), the self-described largest association of Christian communicators, welcomed Hegseth to orate to during its NRB Freedom 250 Celebration on Feb. 19, as part of its broader 2026 International Christian Media Convention at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tenn.The celebration of 250 years of American independence, according to the NRB, “brought together national leaders, Christian…

There are a few movies that stand out to your average gun guy. Heat is a classic, so is Collateral, and we get the John Wick series too. One of the more underrated gun guy flicks is Leon: The Professional. The Professional is an awesome movie. Jean Reno plays an assassin employed by a skeezy, low-level mobster. We don’t see much backstory on the man, but when it comes time to sell his wares, he’s an expert. Dare I say a professional? Leon’s chosen firearms are a pair of Beretta 92FS pistols fitted with a custom compensator. Hero Guns There…

Sig jumps into the 2011 game with the P211 GTO, and it flat-out rips. We ran plates and a match to see if this ROMEOX-equipped 9mm really stays glued to target. First Shots With Sig’s P211 GTO – It Isn’t Just Another 2011 “Oh geez!” These were the first words out of my mouth after I shot the new Sig Sauer P211-GTO; more on this reaction later.

From the moment he helped pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, I wanted to see Sen. John Cornyn gone. Honestly, if we’re going to see a Texas senator support anti-Second Amendment legislation like that, we might as well not see him counted on the ostensibly pro-gun side. He needed to be primaried, though, and hopefully lose his spot on the ticket, and a real Republican could win the seat.Rep. Wesley Hunt is one of those trying to take that seat from Cornyn, and a new ad from his campaign isn’t pulling any punches.Rep. Wesley Hunt…
Elections have consequences. Sometimes those consequences show up fast — like when one of the nation’s largest defense contractors decides it’s seen enough and heads for the exits barely a month after the new governor takes office. That’s exactly what happened in Virginia this week. Boeing announced it’s yanking its Defense, Space & Security headquarters out of Arlington and heading back to St. Louis — the same division it moved to Virginia in 2022 when business-friendly Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin was making the Commonwealth an attractive place to build things that go boom in defense of this country. Youngkin’s gone…
This article was originally published by Joshua Mawhorter at The Mises Institute. When moving away from superficial, cartoonish, and caricatured history, the importance of context and distinctions becomes obvious. Part of the task of responsible history is to show how things are often more complicated than first assumed. The Civil War is an important historical event in which this is evident. Zooming in on just one aspect of the US before the Civil War, it is key to understand the role of the federal legal protections of slavery. While recognizing slavery’s role in secession, and secession as a cause of the war,…
A Portland, Oregon Democrat on the city council is the latest lefty public official to signal support for the Second Amendment, though at the moment she seems to be far more interested in her right to carry than anyone else’s. The change of heart was sparked by a protest during the latest city council meeting, where dozens of members of a group called “Revoke the ICE Permit PDX” interrupted the proceedings. At first the disruption was only verbal, with chants and shouts. Ultimately, though, four people were arrested after one protester made her way to the…
The legislative front has been busy this week, with skirmishes over firearms laws playing out in statehouses and on Capitol Hill alike. Here’s where things stand. Blumenthal’s Jaime’s Law Makes Another Appearance Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) have reintroduced Jaime’s Law, which would impose background check requirements on ammunition purchases. Like its predecessors, the bill faces an uphill battle in the current Congress, but its reintroduction signals that gun control advocates aren’t done pushing ammo restrictions as a backdoor approach to limiting access to firearms. Wyoming Passes Second Amendment Protection Act Good news out of…
I love the Second Amendment. I think it’s absolutely vital for a free society. When I look at the countries of Europe that used to enjoy freedom, but have numerous gun control laws now that keep the population disarmed, I also see countries that kick in doors over memes and other acts that show freedom isn’t a thing there any longer. So the Second Amendment needs to be protected.In Wyoming, a bill seeking to do just that passed the Senate.The bill named the “Second Amendment Protection Act” could be Wyoming’s “insurance policy” against a hypothetical dark future…
