    Gaetz blasts IRS, railroad agency buying up ammo: 'The heaviest artillery they need is a calculator'

    Gaetz blasts IRS, railroad agency buying up ammo: 'The heaviest artillery they need is a calculator' Can anyone explain why the IRS and the railroad need so much ammo?

    Sacrifices for the saving of lives? Free speech and gay rights...

    If we look at the US gun laws, contrasting causes want to leave people unprotected at home, except for police work and well tested license holders. Texans dislike like this from their traditions. Others want to save school children from attackers. How much does one give up to trust? Then...

    Gun Control Failure In Canada

    Gun Control Fail: Trudeau’s Pistol Ban Sees Stores Sell Out of Handguns Can't say I didn't see this coming. I would predict guns flying off the shelves here in the United States should any gun ban bill is presented to Congress. Could Biden be a better gun salesman than Obama?

    Voting rights vs Gun Rights

    Simple question. I hear from many people that voter ID laws are wrong because voting is a constitutional right. But owning a firearm is a constitutional right too. So why is it wrong to require photo identification to vote but not wrong to require a photo identification (and background check) to...

    Activist Kills Unarmed Man

    Okay. It was a training scenario and not a really shooting. Sorry for the hype. I haven't been on this forum very long but is can sense a lot of anger and contention against police officers and calls for reform. I believe that much of the resentment is coming from a point of genuine ignorance. I...

    Judge tosses Parkland shooting lawsuit. Cops and schools had no duty to protect students, she says.

    Judge tosses Parkland shooting lawsuit. Cops and schools had no duty to protect students, she says. I think that logic is rather odd because by law we have compulsory education, thus the state is responsible for protecting students (including the police officer stationed on campus).

    Gun Control

    I propose that we require all guns be manufactured with various piezoelectric radio transmitters. This would be a variety of "nuggets" formed into the barrel and stock that will emit radio frequency bursts resulting from shock, vibration, or impact. This should be required within 5 years. The...

    2nd Ammendment or NRA -- what REALLY protects our rights?

    Don't get me wrong - I am all for not have automatic weapons such as we saw in the Vegas tragedy... But I hear a lot of noise from one side of the debate telling us that they would gladly take away the guns were it not for the NRA. I can't figure out why they don't say "if it were not for...
