The original version of this article was published on The Inertia. Luxury fashion brands dipping into the world of outdoor sports is nothing new. Most of the time, they come in the form of collaborations between an endemic brand. It’s usually a surfboard maker and a luxury brand, or a snowboard brand and a world-class designer label. The list goes on. The gimmick in those cases really just amounts to an exclusive luxury name slapping its logo on a board you might hang on your wall. Or, in the case of Gucci in recent years, some branded après-ski threads. The…

The city of Memphis is like a lot of other anti-gun urban areas in pro-gun states. They think localities are best suited to decide what gun laws they need, but only if they’ll make things far stricter than state law. They’re not big fans of localities deciding less gun control is better. To that end, they thought they could get around Tennessee’s preemption law.To that end, they also got their posteriors sued.Unsurprisingly, they lost, as GOA announced in a press release:Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) are celebrating a major victory…
With President Donald Trump urging the U.S. Senate to do away with the filibuster to put an end to the government shutdown, one gun-rights group is sounding the alarm on that proposal. On November 4, Gun Owners of America (GOA) issued a national alert encouraging members to “save” the filibuster for the good of the Second Amendment. “President Donald Trump is calling on the Senate to use the ‘nuclear option’ and eliminate the filibuster to reopen the government,” the GOA Senior Vice President Erich Pratt wrote in the alert. “Destroying the filibuster would be a disaster for the Second Amendment.…

Zohram Mamdani may be poised to become the next mayor of New York City, but there’s no way he’s getting through the process unscathed. That’s especially true since the man who called for a total gun ban also brandished a gun while rapping violent lyrics during his short-lived “music” career. The two instances aren’t exactly easy to reconcile.One can rationalize it all they want, because people are good at that, but they can’t reconcile it based on what we know.And the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms isn’t going to let…
Gun owners who have spent years navigating the paperwork jungle of the National Firearms Act just got some long-overdue good news. The ATF is proposing to remove the Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) notification requirement from Form 1, the paperwork used when making an NFA item such as a suppressor, short-barreled rifle, or other regulated firearm. It’s one of the last remnants of early twentieth-century bureaucracy that never made much sense. The CLEO notification rule never granted local police any authority; it simply added another layer of unnecessary bureaucracy. Now it appears that this requirement is finally being eliminated. What’s…

Two judges have stepped in over the federal government’s suspension of food-aid benefits for tens of millions of Americans set to end on Nov. 1 amid the shutdown.

When I was growing up in the 1980s, the city of Miami was synonymous with cocaine cowboys and gang warfare. Shows like Miami Vice had something to do with that, of course, but Miami was an undeniably violent place back then. In 1980, Miami had 220 homicides; a murder rate of more than 60 per 100,000 residents. Keep in mind this was almost a decade before Florida adopted “shall issue” concealed carry, and more than 40 years before permitless carry became the law of the land in the Sunshine State. There are likely far more legal…

Gun control activists have found a new boogeyman: the 3D printer. Everytown for Gun Safety recently hosted a “3D Printed Firearms Summit” in New York City, claiming the goal was to “build cross-sector collaboration and chart actionable strategies to stem the tide of 3D-printed firearm-related violence.” In reality, it looked more like another panic-driven roundtable of people terrified of technology they don’t understand. The summit carried the same energy as the Biden-Harris era’s gun control task forces, except this time, Everytown had to pay for it themselves. Without the defunct White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to fund the…

Whoever collects the most votes receives a week of regenerative stem cell care, paid for by the Miracle Hope Foundation, in Tijuana,…
The Schumer Shutdown has been going on for way too long. Of course, most people aren’t really feeling it because so much of the government isn’t nearly as essential as some people want to claim, but there are problems forming that will just get worse if the government doesn’t reopen. As of this writing, that doesn’t seem very likely. But President Donald Trump clearly wants that to happen, and for obvious reasons.The problem is what he wants Senate Republicans to do about it.President Donald Trump on Thursday urged congressional Republicans to unilaterally end the government…
