While much of Monday’s news is properly focused on the devastation of Hurricane Irma on Florida and the Caribbean, it is a somber anniversary of the terrorist attack that shook America and the western world.

Thousands lost their lives and millions were traumatized to one degree or another. It was this generation’s Pearl Harbor.

The Archdiocese of Chicago formally announced Monday that firearms are banned on all archdiocese property. In a statement, the archdiocese said they have "...had ta best practice on the presence of firearms for some time and most of our facilities display signage indicating that firearms are prohibited on their premises. Given the times, we thought it would be prudent to issue a policy on firearms as a 'particular law' so there would be absolute clarity on our position."

Sixteen years ago today I was in Kamiah, Idaho, at the Flying B Ranch at the 2001 Weatherby Writers Conference. We were getting ready to head out for morning bird hunting, and I had just secured the upper snaps on my Filson chaps as I looked up at the television and saw the first plane slam into the first tower.

Two men charged with murder when a Facebook feud led to the fatal stabbing of their friend in the Ravenswood neighborhood were each sentenced Monday to eight years in prison after they both pled guilty. Raymond Boyle, 23, and Dalton Stropes, 22, pled guilty to second-degree murder in the 2015 death of their friend 20-year-old Angelica Escamilla. Escamilla was stabbed to death after the three of them cornered another man and baited him into fighting, authorities said.

As I laced up my boots and buckled the snaps of my chaps, I looked up at the television and saw the first plane crash into the first tower. I didn't know it at the time, but America was at war. There were other times that I knew America was at war, even if it wasn’t declared. As a boy, I sat Indian-style on the floor staring at the television as countless rounds were fired into a jungle half a world away, and I watched the helicopters lift off from the American Embassy in Saigon with desperate humanity huddled on their skids.

When it comes to understanding the recent surge of radical political organizations in the U.S., Mark Bray, a visiting lecturer in history at the College, may know more than any scholar today on the far-left “Antifa” or anti-fascist movement. But knowledge can be a burden, as the saying goes. Following a series of recent public comments regarding the use of violence to counter neo-fascism, Bray has landed in the middle of a dispute involving a statement of condemnation from the College, national media coverage and death threats.

I had been doing a great deal of shooting in the years preceding that date—Oct. 18, 1993—but most of it was on my own. As an active writer for several of the better-known gunzines, I made weekly trips to the range to do shooting evaluations of various handguns. In many ways, it was a gun buff’s dream job, but it had essentially taken me away from formal competition and even the traditional so-called “square” ranges of police and military training. Sure, I had put a blue gazillion rounds downrange, but the dude who confronted me on that crisp October morning could not have cared less.

Republicans worry about vote fraud. Democrats claim that Republicans are just imagining things. But in testimony Tuesday before the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, I will suggest a simple solution that could make both parties happy: Apply the background check system for gun purchases to voting.

When someone gets involved with guns and gangs at an early age, it can change the way that person thinks. Earlier this summer, reporter Rob Wildeboer talked to a man who said that shooting became “like a drug” for him, and spent decades chasing the high he felt the first time he shot a gun. Neurobiologist Peggy Mason and comedian Aaron Freeman are co-hosts of the podcast “Brain Buddies,” and they were interested in what was going on inside of that shooter’s brain. They talk about the underlying neuroscience of what happens when you shoot someone, what it means to call shooting an “addiction,” and why understanding neurobiology can help us begin to address Chicago’s gun violence.

The days are growing colder, and soon millions of American hunters will pursue a time-honored tradition. They will load their automatic weapons with armor-piercing bullets, strap on silencers, head off to the picnic grounds on nearby public lakes — and start shooting.

To hear New York’s junior senator, Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand, talk, you would think that the reason for random gun violence deaths was due to the sales of gun silencers. In the September 8, 2017, episode of Netflix’s Chelsea titled “Comfortably Naked,” Gillibrand describes the reason she left the ever-shrinking ranks of moderate Democrats to join in with the far-left wing crowd and, of course, it has to do with guns.

Files for 3D Printed Guns are Free Speech Too

In 2013, Defense Distributed uploaded computer-aided design (CAD) files and made them freely available to the public. With the proper equipment and knowledge, someone could use the CAD files to create a 3D-printed gun. The government quickly ordered the files removed (under threat of severe penalties) because it determined that the files ran afoul of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), which prevent people from communicating to foreign persons "technical data" about constructing certain arms...

When surveying various articles about firearms and firearms ownership in Australia, I have read that the numbers cannot be known. I have had knowledgeable people tell me the same thing. Only a year ago, the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC) published an important and informative report about illicit firearms. In the report, substantive information is given about firearms ownership and licenses in Australia.

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1.
