The United Kingdom is often touted as having fewer so-called gun crimes than the United States, and that’s evidence we should do something similar. However, when you delve into the details, you see that crime continues not just unabated, but it has increased. The criminals often just used other weapons, which benefited them, but were terrible for self-defense purposes. The UK’s Reform Party, led by Nigel Farage, isn’t popular with the more leftist elements of British politics. That’s probably an endorsement, in my book, but while they’re pretty far-right by UK standards, they’re almost middle…
One of the last truly independent mainstream automakers is having a hard time in 2026. Through the first four months of the year, almost every single Mazda model is selling worse than it was in the same time period in 2025, something that could probably be attributed to the Trump administration’s aggressive tariff tactics. Only one Mazda is built in the United States, the CX-50, and that model (along with the suddenly popular Mazda3 hatchback) is seemingly immune to the company’s sales slump, with much-improved sales this year. Built In Alabama, Made For America Sales of the compact crossover rose…
The head of United States Central Command (CENTCOM), Admiral Brad Cooper, told journalists on Monday that the US military “eliminated” a small Iranian naval force in the region. Iranian military officials have already said that the US is lying about these claims. Cooper claimed that the US military sank at least six Iranian boats, boasting of “an enormous amount of capability and firepower concentrated in and around the strait, including AH-64 Apache and MH-60 Seahawk helicopters.” “The US claim regarding the sinking of a number of Iranian combat boats is a lie,” a senior Iranian military official told IRIB news agency, as…
Whether you’re out for a casual stroll or tackling 20-mile days, the best men’s hiking pants are your primary line of defense. These slacks combine rugged durability with dynamic stretch, managing your sweat on hot climbs while still fending off light rain and heavy brush. To hone the current rankings, lead testers Rob Simpson and Ryan Kempfer put nine men’s hiking pants through a 10-month testing cycle. From Baja desert trails to the rainy Alaskan coast, we logged 300 miles and 30,000 feet of vertical gain to find the best men’s hiking pants. We crowned the Outdoor Research Ferrosi Pants…
Assistant Attorney General and head of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division Harmeet K. Dhillon told Denver officials that the city would face a federal lawsuit unless they ceased enforcing the city’s ban on so-called assault weapons, and she’s followed through with that threat in federal court. Promises made, promises kept. The DOJ just sued the City of Denver over their AR-15 ban. pic.twitter.com/4TrDTFVDG1— Hannah Hill (@hannahhill_sc) May 5, 2026The lawsuit not only claims that Denver’s gun ban violates the Second Amendment, but that the pattern and practices of the Denver Police Department in enforcing the…
WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republicans have added $1 billion in White House security upgrades to legislation that would fund immigration enforcement agencies, a proposed boost for President Donald Trump’s ballroom project after a man was charged with trying to assassinate him at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner last week. The GOP bill released late Monday would designate the money for the U.S. Secret Service for “security adjustments and upgrades” related to the ballroom project, which Trump and Republicans have been pushing since Cole Tomas Allen allegedly stormed the April 25 media dinner at the Washington Hilton with guns and…
Military Appreciation Month is a great time to check out all the commissary discounts available on your nearest base. Because the commissary generally partners with brands to offer specific discounts for this special celebration every year, it’s a great time to visit the store for the biggest grocery discounts possible. Commissary discounts: Look for special coupons Manufacturers often offer commissary discounts and coupons just for military members, and many of them are tied to Military Appreciation Month. Commissary specific coupons are usually found in three places: in the front of the store in a special circular or leaflet, on tear…

For Berghaus, that’s the northeast of England, where rain-washed fells beckon adventurous folk to explore a world apart from cramped flats. When Berghaus founders Gordon Davison and Peter Lockey first heeded that call in the mid-1960s, there was no place a Geordie boy could go to buy kit worthy of a good country ramble, let alone the high alpine ranges they longed to explore.

The number of firearm transfers ticked up nationally in April, led by a huge increase in NICS checks in Virginia. According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, there were 1,193,428 background checks performed on firearm transfers across the country, which was a slight increase of 1.6% compared to April, 2025. Virginia, however, posted some eye-popping numbers. NSSF says gun transfers in the Commonwealth were 79% compared to one year ago, led by a huge increase in background checks on long gun sales. Virginia was actually second in the nation for long gun sales last month,…
The 2026 legislative session has come to a close in Virginia, but not without some last minute changes to several gun control laws that are now on their way to Gov. Abigail Spanberger. None of the changes benefit gun owners, except for one… and with that bill only a very select number of Virginians will qualify. Unreal. @VAHouseDems just voted to exempt themselves and their cars from the ‘guns in cars’ bill.Laws for thee, not for me. https://t.co/vuVDET0dnB— Garren Shipley (@GarrenShipley) March 14, 2026House Bill 110 makes it a misdemeanor to “leave a handgun in an unattended…

A new effort claiming to be a “coalition of stakeholders who represent many perspectives on firearms in America” that is “dedicated to working together to reduce gun harms while respecting the rights of responsible gun owners” is drawing fire from the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF). Called Bridging the Divide on Firearms Policy, has outlined a set of eight state-level “harm reduction” policies created by a panel that purportedly included both gun rights and gun control advocates. According to a news report written by Larry Keane, NSSF vice president and general counsel, the package includes many proposals and was developed…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. A worst-case scenario could be just weeks away. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has been essentially paralyzed by the war with Iran, and there is a lot of speculation that the Houthis could soon bring commercial traffic through the Red Sea to a screeching halt. If such a scenario actually materializes, it would be catastrophic for the global economy. The good news is that so far, we are not witnessing widespread panic among investors. Most of them still seem to believe that this crisis is just…
Ram is back with another new truck for 2026. The Ram 1500 BackCountry comes with some key rough-road extras like a lift, plus special body-color accents and finishes. It’s not a big addition, but it’s not a big price, either. The BackCountry package is an add-on to the Big Horn trim with either the Hemi V8 or an SO Hurricane I6. Buyers Want More Rough-Road–Ready Trucks (Photo/Ram) “The off‑road segment has been growing for a while now and Ram has been leading that charge with Warlock, Rebel, RHO and TRX,” said Tim Kuniskis. He’s the exec who is in charge…
To say last week was eventful is a bit too mild for what happened. Between the attack in Michigan, put down by armed security, and the attack at Old Dominion University, put down by a badass ROTC cadet, it was something. The attack at Old Dominion hit me a little harder than many of these kinds of things because I drove past that university every day when I was in the Navy and headed to work. For there to be a terrorist attack there is a little different than an attack in, say, Los Angeles.But…
