You Ain't Taking My Guns

Until now, gun shops have been classified in the miscellaneous retail or sporting goods portions of the International Organization for Standardization's (ISO) merchant codes. But, heeding the call of radical progressive Democratic politicians like Kathy Hochul, the ISO has created a segregated code for gun shops. You may be wondering why law-abiding Americans should have any of their purchases red-flagged in such a way. Your Survival Guy certainly is. The only answer appears to be, in the NRA's words, an erosion of "the rights of law-abiding Americans one transaction at a time." Kevin Haggerty … [Read more...]

You recently watched Joe Rogan slam Hollywood for its hypocrisy on guns on his podcast. Almost as if in answer, Jennifer Lawrence confirmed his assertions in an upcoming interview with Vogue, saying derisively, "people are still voting for politicians who receive money from the NRA." The hypocritical part is that Lawrence herself has made money many times by wielding firearms in her films. AWR Hawkins writes in Breitbart: Actress Jennifer Lawrence, who has used guns ranging from pump shotguns to .45 caliber pistols on-screen in four different films, is pushing gun control for the American … [Read more...]

In a bizarre tweet, New York Governor Kathy Hochul encouraged credit card companies American Express, Mastercard, and Visa to "categorize firearm purchases & flag suspicious activity." It's hard to imagine what credit card companies would do to find "suspicious activity" in a transaction between legal gun purchasers and gun shops. The governor's tweet is just another in a long line of Democrat attempts to use the banking and credit card systems to thwart the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans. Townhall reports: New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) tweeted on Wednesday that in … [Read more...]

After taking time out of his attacks on Americans' rights to spend their money on wars in other countries, and to raise their taxes with his new "Inflation Reduction Act," Joe Biden is back at it, calling for infringements on the Second Amendment. The Daily Mail's Morgan Phillips and Emily Goodin reported on a recent speech by Biden in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. They write: The president also promised to ban assault-style rifles, harkening back to the 1994 ban that expired in 2004. 'I'm determined to ban assault weapons in this country. Determined. I did it once and I'll do it again,' he … [Read more...]

In Episode 1860 of the Joe Rogan Experience, host Joe Rogan sat down with fellow stand-up comedian Tim Dillon. At one point in the show, the two discussed the shooting of Halyna Hutchins by Alec Baldwin. The conversation then moved on to Rogan hamming Hollywood for its hypocrisy on guns. Action Line: Get your guns and your training, now. Your family deserves the protection that only you can provide. Remember, when second counts, the police are minutes away.

A former agent of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives recently wrote a letter criticizing his employer of 18 years. In the letter, Agent Brian Garcia blasts the Bureau's recent priorities writing "We did not become ATF agents so we could collect data, ensure firearms are in compliance, seize trigger groups, argue about what a firearm is or is not, seize firearms for reasons other than prosecuting criminals, or spend countless hours inputting data to justify someone else’s existence in HQ." AmmoLand.com's John Crump reports that Garcia believes the ATF focuses too much … [Read more...]

In a small shop in Norco, California, about 50 miles southeast of Los Angeles, one man decided he had had enough, and took the law into his own hands. When four robbers pulled up to his store, and began to enter with rifles pointed at him, the 80-year-old man fired a single blast from his shotgun, hitting the first burglar in the door. As the criminals fled back to their vehicle, between screams of agony, the wounded intruder repeatedly shouted "He shot my arm off!" Peter Sblendorio reports in the New York Daily News: An 80-year-old liquor store owner thwarted a robbery attempt Sunday by … [Read more...]

In urban America, residents are realizing that their politicians' decades-long policies of disarmament have left them, the law-abiding members of their communities, at the mercy of the lawbreakers. Now, they're fighting back. Peter Jamison reports in The Washington Post that there has been a " surge of interest in firearms among urban Black women." Jamison writes: A 16th week had passed with no arrest in the murder of Patrice Parker’s son, another week in which she had struggled through grief for him and fear for herself and her surviving daughters. It wasn’t just that the person who had … [Read more...]

You may have heard that the Senate confirmed Joe Biden's radical nominee, Steve Dettelbach, as the next director of the ATF. Dettelbach, and Biden's ATF, are making every attempt to curtail the constitutional rights of Americans to keep and bear arms. Their newest strategy is to attempt to regulate every part of a firearm as though it were an entire firearm. The cost of the paperwork and compliance necessary for such regulation would simply put most small parts manufacturers out of business. Thankfully, gun owners have someone on their side. Arizona AG Mark Brnovich is standing up against the … [Read more...]

The recent major ruling by the Supreme Court against New York's concealed carry regime has opened the door for challenges to other unconstitutional gun laws. Justice Clarence Thomas's majority opinion created a pathway for challenging other laws that anti-gun politicians use to keep law-abiding citizens from owning firearms for their self-defense. The Wall Street Journal's Jacob Gershman reports: The high court previously held in 2008 that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual the right to keep handguns in the home. Justice Clarence Thomas’s majority opinion in Bruen extended that … [Read more...]
