When Will Florida Join the Permitless Carry States?

March 9, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

You have watched over the last few years as many American states have adopted permitless carry and constitutional carry laws. But many people are anticipating the addition of Florida to that list. Governor Ron DeSantis has encouraged the state's Republican-controlled legislature to send him a bill allowing permitless carry in the state, and it looks like that will happen soon. Here's an explanation of the current legislation being proposed, as reported by Brianna Andrews for News 4, in Jacksonville (abridged): The Florida legislative session officially starts on Tuesday, and one proposed … [Read more...]

Warning: Overnight Law-Abiding Citizens Are Now Felons and More…

February 17, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

As I wrote to you yesterday, big government is coming after you. Today, law abiding Rhode Islanders who own a gun with a magazine that can hold more than ten rounds are felons. Wait a second. What just happened? Last June, RI’s General Assembly passed a law banning all magazines holding more than ten rounds. The governor signed it into law. There was a six month grace period to turn in the “illegal” mags to local law enforcement (which, by the way, also makes you a target because they’re keeping records of those who turn them in, in case the law is overturned and you want them back). The … [Read more...]

Obama Nominated Judge Denies Rhode Islanders Second Amendment Rights

February 16, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Last year, Rhode Island legislators passed a number of gun control measures, including a ban on what they described as "high capacity magazines." That included any magazine that held over ten rounds. Rhode Island gun owners sued the state to prevent the implementation of the law, and now one man, U.S. District Court Judge John J. McConnell Jr. (who was nominated to his position by Barack Obama after being recommended for the post by RI Senator Jack Reed), has denied Rhode Islanders their constitutional rights. When bad laws are challenged, your constitutional rights can be subverted by a … [Read more...]

Is Maryland Next in Line for New Draconian Gun Laws?

January 13, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Maryland legislators want to join other states like New York and New Jersey in the effort to severely restrict where concealed carry licensees can carry their firearms in a cynical response to the Supreme Court's nullification of their "may issue" permitting systems. David Collins reports for WBALTV, writing: A series of gun control proposals are before the General Assembly this year, including a unique approach to address ghost guns. Senate President Bill Ferguson, D-District 46, said he considers public safety a priority. "It is a top primary concern for us. It has been, it will … [Read more...]

The Creeping Assault on Gun Owners’ Rights

January 12, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Radical gun control activists, both in and out of government, are nothing if not persistent. After being soundly beaten time and time again in front of the Supreme Court, they continue to imagine new ways to hamper Americans' ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights. The city of San Jose has found a novel way to make the lives of law-abiding gun owners miserable. Zusha Elinson reports in The Wall Street Journal: Dave Truslow, a San Jose, Calif., tech-industry retiree and firearms instructor, recently started storing his collection of more than 100 guns out of town because he wanted … [Read more...]

GUN BAN: Illinois Empowers Its Criminals

January 11, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Illinois just became less safe as the state’s legislators signed House Bill 5471 into law yesterday. From the NRA: House Bill 5471 bans many semi-automatic firearms that law-abiding citizens commonly own for self-defense, competition, and recreation, as well as certain spare parts for them, bans handgun magazines that can hold more than 15 rounds of ammunition, long gun magazines that can hold more than ten rounds of ammunition, and “combination[s] of parts” from which such magazines can be assembled, bans .50 BMG caliber firearms and ammunition, and expands the duration of the state's “red … [Read more...]

New Jersey Attacks Gun Rights

January 3, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

New Jersey already has some of the nation's strictest gun laws, but that's not enough for Governor Phil Murphy. He wants to harass gun owners with layers of regulations that will make exercising their rights nearly unbearable. The Wall Street Journal's Editorial Board writes: Politicians these days don’t have the respect they once did for the Bill of Rights, and some are defying courts that enforce those rights. That’s the story in New Jersey, where last week Gov. Phil Murphy signed a new law that makes getting a gun carry permit more difficult and expensive and sharply limits the public … [Read more...]

The Clock is Ticking: You Must Protect Your Family

November 18, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Originally posted on July 20, 2020. If you live anywhere near Chicago/Seattle/Portland, you’re asking me, how much longer will it take for them to come to my neighborhood? Over the last two days alone in Chicago, 63 people were shot, 12 fatally. In Seattle, twelve police officers were hurt in violent protests. And in Portland, the Police Association office was burned. What a weekend. Listen, the clock is ticking for you to do everything you can to make you and your family a hard target. In other words, as difficult as possible to damage you or a loved one. Thugs like easy … [Read more...]

WATCH: Zeldin Schools Kathy Hochul on Constitution

November 4, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

After the Supreme Court struck down New York's unconstitutional concealed carry rules, Governor Kathy Hochul implemented rules that were even more unconstitutional. Congressman Lee Zeldin, a lawyer, and current Army Reserve lieutenant colonel, who is running against Hochul for New York's governorship, schooled her on the mistake in a recent debate. Watch: NY Governor candidate Lee Zeldin says Kathy Hochul's gun grab scheme will be overturned in court because "of course it's unconstitutional" We [@NysJGunClub] are fighting the gun grab in court. Help us overturn it by donating to our … [Read more...]

YOU LOOT, WE SHOOT: DeSantis Reminds Looters that Florida is a 2nd Amendment State

October 3, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Natural disasters bring out the best and worst in humanity. You've seen videos of amazing acts of heroism coming out of Florida after Hurricane Ian's landfall there, but also you've probably heard reports of some of the sad behavior that follows too many natural disasters. Looters tend to swoop in on such occasions and take advantage of people who are already victims of the worst nature can throw at them. Florida's Governor, Ron DeSantis reminded looters and thugs who may seek to take advantage of the plight of Floridians hit hard by Ian that the state is a "Second Amendment state." The NY … [Read more...]
