One of the common arguments offered against campus concealed carry is that “the college lifestyle is defined by alcohol and drug abuse. Why would any sane person want to add guns to that mix?” There are many fallacies to this argument, but its base stereotypes us all as the fictional heathens depicted in Animal House. This is not only offensive, but it just isn’t true. A 2002 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study found that in 2001 49% of US adults consumed alcohol. 48.6% of respondents Read more [...]

Historian Clayton Cramer and Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership have both documented the fact well. Now that a new generation of gun control advocates are at play, they've changed their tactics. Their game is the same. They play on racial fears. They call gun rights advocates racist in an attempt to discredit efforts Read more [...]

A couple of months ago, I told you about Moms Demand Action and the lies they were perpetuating to advance their agenda. One of their partner groups, Ohio Coalition Against Gun Violence, recently took lying to a whole new level. Not only did they lie and politicize a tragedy to dupe people, but they defended their actions to a group that exposed them. Third Base Politics exposed a collaboration by the Ohio Coalition Against Gun Violence, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, and Progress Ohio to dupe Read more [...]
