If you’ve been to a grocery store lately, you may have noticed that prices are rising faster again. The war with Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is causing the biggest energy crisis in history, which will affect the price of everything. Food prices are going to rise particularly fast due to the lack of fertilizer being exported from the gulf. Currently, farmers are using less fertilizer than usual, and that will affect the price of food significantly come harvest season. So what do we do? First of all, don’t panic-buy. Instead, what you want to do…
Among the many Second Amendment-related lawsuits that are percolating around the country is one known as Bergmann-Schoch v. Davenport, which challenges New Jersey’s prohibition on hollow-point ammunition. Besides the named plaintiff, the Coalition of New Jersey Firearm Owners, Gun Owners of America, and Gun Owners Foundation are suing the state over the hollow-point ban, and the plaintiffs attorneys recently submitted their reply to New Jersey’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit. The entire brief is a joy to read, but the Firearms Policy Coalition highlighted one particularly important part of the response that beautifully rebuts the…
CASABLANCA, Morocco (AP) — The remains of a U.S. Army soldier who went missing during military exercises in Morocco a week ago have been recovered in the Atlantic Ocean, the U.S. military said Sunday. Military teams are still searching for a second missing soldier. The remains found are those of 1st Lt.

In 2023, during an interview, Gabby Giffords actually said, “No more guns.” She said the quiet part out loud, and while it was kind of refreshing, the fact that there was so little backlash, particularly among the anti-gun community that swears they don’t want any such thing, was telling. Now, her organization is close to saying it once again.As May is Asian and Pacific Islander (or API) Heritage Month, it’s not surprising that many people choose this time to talk about their special interest as it relates to this group of Americans. While Gabby Giffords…
This article was originally published by Jacob Thomas at Natural News. President Donald Trump warned he will monitor which companies seek refunds on tariffs the Supreme Court declared illegal, suggesting forgone refunds could earn his favor. Trump called it brilliant if companies like Amazon and Apple avoid seeking refunds, stating, “If they don’t do that, I will remember them.” The Supreme Court invalidated Trump’s global tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, with U.S. Customs and Border Protection launching refunds of $166 billion on April 20. Despite the ruling, Trump has criticized the justices who voted against him and…
Whenever I see the New York Times has published anything having to do with the Second Amendment, I cant help but indulge in a little preemptive eye-rolling. What stupidity am I about to read, and is it worth writing about here at Bearing Arms? Every now and then I’m actually surprised by what I read, and that was definitely the case with a column by Reginald Dwayne Betts entitled “A Gun Derailed My Childhood. As an Adult, I found Relief at the Range.” Betts was sentenced to nine years in state prison in Virginia for committing…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A tenuous ceasefire appeared to be holding Saturday after the United States struck two Iranian oil tankers, while the country that hosts the U.S. Navy’s regional headquarters said it arrested dozens of people it alleged were linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. Attacks Friday cast doubt on the month-old ceasefire that the United States has insisted is still in effect. Washington is awaiting an Iranian response to its latest proposal for a deal to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and roll back Tehran’s disputed nuclear program. The U.S. military said Friday that…
In 2020, then 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse found himself in a situation he never should have been thrust into. By that, I don’t blame him, but the rampaging mob that decided to chase a teenager in the middle of a riot. They not only knew he was armed, but one of the mob tried to disarm him during the confrontation, making it clear that Rittenhouse had reason to fear for his life. The reporting of that incident was a journalistic tragedy, though, as many people had very strong opinions as to what happened, all while being very wrong about what…
You get a lot of conveniences when living in a city apartment – proximity to schools, shopping, and services. However, when the power grid fails, look out, you’re in for some challenges. Unlike some homeowners in suburbia, you can’t just break out the generator or avail yourself of a large propane tank. The elevator may not work, the tap water may go dry, and managing sanitation may be an issue. The good news is you can prepare before anything happens. TL;DR: To prepare for a loss of utilities in an apartment, focus on space-saving water storage like a WaterBOB, use…
The U.S. Air Force is undertaking what leaders describe as its most significant overhaul of basic military training in more than seven decades. Maj. Gen. Davidson told Military.com that the effort is designed to fundamentally change how new Airmen think about their role in war. At the center of that transformation is a concept Davidson calls “airmindedness.” A mindset shift, he believes, is essential for the future fight. We had been wrestling with this identity problem for years, Davidson told Military.com. For decades, Air Force Basic Military Training (BMT) at Lackland Air Force Base, TX, has succeeded at producing disciplined…
Serving as a combat medic, which included two deployments to Afghanistan, Sean Wojciechowski served among some of the best soldiers the U.S. Army had to offer. When he left the Army after 11 years, however, Wojciechowski realized that many of the comrades he went to battle with struggled to navigate the legalities of a complex benefits system. Bottom line – Special Operations veterans weren’t getting a fair shake despite all they’ve sacrificed serving in a combat zone. That’s when Wojciechowski decided to become an advocate for fellow veterans. He pursued law school and is currently serving as an Equal Justice…
