Hello, folks!  This is Johnny Bullseye, your Second Amendment reporter, bringing you another exciting interview from the annals of firearm history.  Today we are privileged to interview that great American patriot, Paul Revere. “Paul, most Americans remember you for your famous midnight ride on April 18, 1775.  What was that all about?” “Well, Johnny, in those days old King George knew he could never impose his will on us as long as we had arms.  So his army, commanded by General Gage,...

What happens when journalists meet principles?  They stand on them—and sometimes tromp all over them. It is remarkable that journalists, usually curious generalists reporting on many things they didn’t learn about in college, often aren’t inquisitive enough to study serious Constitutional scholarship before expounding their take about the individual rights codified in the first five amendments.

Emma Grey Ellis, who writes for Wired Magazine, was kind enough to share her anti-gun bias with us last month in her article:  “Gun Research Will Get Even More Difficult Under NRA-Friendly Trump”. The first clue to her bias is not the title, but the large picture of a handgun aimed directly at you.  That’s a favorite gambit of anti-gun editors to put you in the right frame of mind to appreciate their enlightened pronouncements. Let me save you the trouble of reading it. (more…)
