Bearing Arms' Cam & Company

Democrats in Washington State approved a ban on so-called large capacity magazines earlier this year, but ahead of the law taking effect on July 1st gun stores around the state are reporting a massive increase in sales.

From California to New Jersey, anti-gun Democrats are pushing new laws allowing for gun makers to be sued for the actions of criminals despite a federal law that was designed to prevent these politically-motivated lawsuits from going forward. The intention is clear; to bankrupt the firearms industry and deprive law-abiding Americans of access to their right to keep and bear arms.

With 10 Republicans agreeing in principle to a deal that includes increased spending on mental health and school security as well as offering grants to states that adopt "red flag" laws and including juvenile crime records in background checks on young adults who purchase firearms, there's a lot of momentum at the moment, and if 2A activists are going to successfully sideline the legislation, we can't just talk to ourselves.

The Heritage Foundation's Amy Swearer was one of a handful of Second Amendment supporters invited to testify during Wednesday's House committee hearing on "gun violence" (and more importantly, gun control), and joins Cam to discuss her appearance and her frustration with the lack of interest by Democrats in looking for answers that don't involve restricting the right to keep and bear arms.

While most of the media's attention is focused on gun control efforts on Capitol Hill, away from the spotlight many school districts are quietly investigating the possibility of having armed school staff members in place. FASTER Colorado's Laura Carno tells Cam that the group has been overwhelmed with interest on the part of school districts, and are hoping to train hundreds of educators and staffers before the end of the year.

Johns Hopkins University researcher Daniel Webster has admitted in an interview that even "universal background checks" won't have much of an impact on shootings and homicides, and should be seen as just the first step in a bigger round of restrictions on gun owners, including a gun licensing regime and mandatory waiting periods.

But does their argument hold up? As Cam explains, the bulk of the historical evidence shows that Americans have embraced their individual right to keep and bear arms for self-defense since before the founding of this nation, and continue to do so today.

Dr. J. Eric Dietz with the Homeland Security Institute at Purdue University joins Cam to talk about his latest research into the effectiveness of both school resource officers and armed school staff in stopping targeted attacks on schools, which he says can reduce casualties by more than 70%.

While politicians in Washington D.C. are looking to find some sort of gun control "compromise" in the wake of the horrific murders in Uvalde, Texas, gun owners and Second Amendment advocates involved in the grassroots effort known as Walk The Talk America are taking on the challenge of improving access to and removing the stigma around mental health and gun ownership. WTTA founder Michael Sodini joins Cam to talk about the program and how it's helping to save lives.

Ryan Petty, whose daughter Alaina was murdered at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in 2018, says he's "held his tongue" for four years, but can no longer be silent about the lies and rewriting of history on the part of anti-gun activist David Hogg. Petty joins Cam to set the record straight, as well as what he'd like to see Congress do in response to the shooting in Uvalde, Texas that left 19 students and two teachers dead.

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy says he's willing to "bend over backwards" to find a compromise on gun control after the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, but his motivation appears far less about effective policies and much more about political posturing.

The NRA's first full-scale Annual Meeting since 2019 is kicking off this weekend in Houston, and Cam talks about some of the big unanswered questions heading into the gathering with The Reload's Stephen Gutowski.

The New York City mayor is allegedly eyeing a run for president in 2024, and the city's rising crime rate and his embrace of gun control may make him an attractive candidate for the gun control lobby.

JSD Supply, targeted by the ATF over its sale of 80% frames and receivers, is pushing back, and Ammoland's John Crump has the details on how you can help.

A gun control proposal by Sens. Cory Booker, Richard Blumenthal, and Robert Menendez would require all gun owners to be licensed by the federal government, and that's just the start of the unconstitutional infringements on our 2A rights contained within the newly introduced legislation.

While anti-gun activists in the U.S. are calling on Congress to pass Joe Biden's gun ban plan, Justin Trudeau's liberals are set to inflict new restrictions on Canadian gun owners starting tomorrow, and many gun owners worry that confiscation is just around the corner.

While Joe Biden is repeating his call for Congress to pass his proposed ban on modern sporting rifles and "large capacity" magazines, it sounds like Senate Democrats are unlikely to hold a vote that's doomed for failure... though they're still looking for ways to make political hay out of the horrific murders in Buffalo, New York.

Second Amendment activist Tony Simon, who founded DiversityShoot.com, sits down with Cam to talk about the Buffalo shooting and why he believes it will actually lead to more Americans from all walks of life coming together in support of their shared right of armed self-defense.

A six-year old "smart gun" company just received $17-million in funding from investors, despite the fact that it doesn't have a product ready for market. In fact, despite multiple companies displaying their own "smart guns" at this year's SHOT Show, it doesn't appear as if any of them are yet ready to sell in stores.

Anti-gun banks and woke corporations seeking to impose their own restrictions on companies within the firearms industry are now facing pushback from the industry itself in the form of the FIND Act; legislation that blocks companies that discriminate against the firearms industry from doing business with state governments. NSSF's Darren LaSorte sits down with Cam to explain how the bill works and where it could be soon enshrined into law.

Constitutional Carry may be the latest pro-2A law that anti-gun nuts are objecting to, but as Cam demonstrates on today's show, their real issue is the right to bear arms itself, even in "shall issue' states.

The Florida governor has reiterated his support for Constitutional Carry but isn't making any promises about signing a bill into law this year, saying it's up to the legislature to get a bill to his desk.

As the website Complete Colorado has documented, city council members across the Denver suburbs are working with groups like Giffords and Everytown for Gun Safety to impose a host of new local laws aimed at restricting the rights of law-abiding citizens.

A federal judge has denied the District of Columbia's bid to keep federal prosecutors away from handling felon-in-possession cases in the city; a decision that could keep more repeat, violent offenders behind bars for a longer period of time.
