The Journal News, which published the names AND addresses of 33,614 registered gun owners in two NY counties, and wanted information in order to publish more from a third, is all sorts of upset in regards to the response they received. Fortunately, the NY Times is there to provide a sob story in their defense […]

Today’s freakout anti-gun screed from the NY Times Indeed, the N.R.A.’s solution to the expansion of gun violence in America has been generally to advocate for the more widespread deployment and carrying of guns. I recently visited some Latin American countries that mesh with the N.R.A.’s vision of the promised land, where guards with guns […]
