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.

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…
