The Wyoming Attorney General’s office has asked the state’s highest court to review a Natrona County judge’s dismissal of a first-degree murder case tied to Wyoming’s new “stand your ground” law. The request, filed March 18 by Assistant Attorney General Samuel Williams and Natrona County Assistant District Attorney Kevin Taheri, states that Judge Catherine Wilking misapplied the law in ruling that Jason T. John acted in self-defense by shooting Wesley Willow. The state’s attorneys also asked the Wyoming Supreme Court to determine whether courts are legally entitled to dismiss cases on the basis of the law’s immunity provision and, if so, by what procedure and standard.

We’re proud to call Oregon our home. We appreciate that Oregonians don’t quite follow the same footsteps as others. That’s why the firearms we make at Radian Weapons aren’t ordinary. They’re the very best we can make from Oregon, by Oregonians. Imagine our surprise when we learn our lawmakers in Salem are following other states in considering legislation to ban entire classes of rifles and ammunition magazines. We’re told this will reduce the criminal misuse of guns. We have a different view.

She says the manager decided to get involved to prevent anyone from getting hurt.
“He said, 'they rob us too much and that’s why I have my gun,' and I understand why he feels the way he feels. He’s trying to secure himself and protect the people that are in here,” she added. |

Requiring all private firearm sales in Massachusetts to take place in a federally licensed gun store — and be run through the shop’s background check system — would close a “dangerous loophole” in current laws, a Natick lawmaker said Tuesday. State Representative David Linsky, a Democrat, said that while a 2014 state law created an online portal for conducting the required background checks for private gun transfers, federal law restricts private sellers from also accessing the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. |

This month New Zealand experienced a horrible white supremacy terror attack that killed 50 people. In the wake of that tragedy their government is skipping the “thoughts and prayers” portion of the Stages of Mass Shooting and going straight into banning “military-style semiautomatic weapons.” Their neighbor, Australia, passed similar measures after the Port Arthur Massacre In 1996, and the country has not had a mass shooting since.

If the commissioners needed validation of their decision, which seemed foreordained, they got it in spades. More than a dozen speakers got up to denounce House Bill 19-1177, the so-called “red flag bill” that Democrats in the Colorado General Assembly are pushing through despite howls of protest from every corner of the state. |

Earlier this month, Courtney Willie tried to break up with 22-year-old Dekota Harvey. "I didn't want the abuse," Willie said. "The mental instability of him. And I didn't want him continuing the abuse of my friends as well." Harvey shot Willie in the leg and shot and killed Willie's new girlfriend, 20-year-old Elizabeth "Alexis" Dawson. Willie said she wasn't surprised by Harvey's actions because he'd had suicidal thoughts and access to guns. The new bill would aim to prevent these incidents.

It’s not just guns that are at risk today, it’s your ammunition as well. So yes, there is a concern. The liberals and poorly informed politicians are at it again; in fact they have never stopped. The attacks are unrelenting these days. If you haven’t noticed, ammunition is now constantly in the crosshairs of the anti-2nd Amendment crowd.

Pennridge High School in Bucks County will become the latest school in the area to hire armed police officers. The school board voted 8 to 1 in favor of hiring two armed officers on Monday night. The vote comes in the wake of a rash of school shootings across the country, including the massacre in Parkland, Florida. "It would be reckless for me to ignore the recommendations of security experts we consulted or to delay any action on this matter further. I urge you to vote in favor of the proposal," said William Krause, vice president of the Pennridge School Board.
