Positive stories in which armed citizens lawfully defend themselves are missing from the legacy media… Today, the Second Amendment Foundation‘s Alan Gottlieb has some questions for the mainstream media. _____________________________________ While the legacy media is quick to sensationalize every incident involving misuse of firearms, they just as quickly downplay or completely dismiss reports of lawful…
I don’t know about you, but I’m going out and buying a lottery ticket today. Here’s a sentence that I never thought I’d have the joy of writing: A California judge has just dismissed California’s so-called “Assault Weapons” ban in a decision that is nothing less than a massive bitch-slap to every single nonsensical argument…
Blue wave? For Illinois, it’s a blued-steel wave, and it’s hitting Chicago’s shores right now. Everybody knows that the states with the worst gun laws in the nation are California, Illinois, New York and Massachusetts (more or less in that order).

If you don’t like lawyers, try this experiment: Say “MY lawyer” out loud. That’s better, isn’t it?

President…
Exit here for some of the worst gun laws in the country! The Second Amendment Foundation just filed a federal lawsuit against the state of New Jersey. Called Kendrick v. Grewal, the suit challenges the state’s incredibly restrictive gun laws. As we’ve mentioned before here at Guns & Gadgets Daily, bad gun laws kill good…
Boulder, Colorado really, really wants to be California. If you live in Colorado and own guns, chances are quite good that you already have a snide nickname for Boulder, Colorado (I like “Boulderfornia” myself) because the city has developed a real antipathy to the Second Amendment. This is in pretty striking contrast to the rest…
Here’s a thorny question about rights, responsibilities, and rehabilitation. We recently learned that the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has joined in an amicus brief on a very interesting case making its way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
