Did the Supreme Court uphold a ban on so-called "assault weapons" this week or deliver gun control advocates an historic victory? Not at all, but you'd never know it by listening to the absurd narrative advanced by the anti-gun media.

Anti-2A Activist Says the Road to Repeal Starts in Colorado
An anti-gun activist says she's committed to repealing the Second Amendment and has set her sights on Colorado, where she's hoping hordes of "white women putting their bodies on the line" will show up for a sit-in at the state capitol until Gov. Jared Polis signs an executive order banning all gun sales and implementing a mandatory "buy back" of all lawfully-owned firearms.

2A Advocate Shoots Down Plan to Make Downtown Detroit a 'Gun-free Zone'
Detroit firearms instructor and Second Amendment advocate Rick Ector says it would be a violation of the Second Amendment as well as state law for the city of Detroit to turn its downtown area into a "gun-free zone", but tells Bearing Arms Cam & Co that the anti-gunners on the city council may be floating the idea in an attempt to undo the state's firearm preemption law altogether.

The Second Amendment Is Not a Second-Class Right
But as gun owners know all too well, in blue states the Second Amendment is still being treated as a second-class right at best, and all too often a privilege to be doled out by the state. Gun Owners Action League executive director Jim Wallace joins Cam with a firsthand report at what's happening in Massachusetts when it comes to the Second Amendment, and why he believes this is the most important civil rights fight of our time.

WaPo touts non-existent "wins" on gun control
The Washington Post claims that Democratic AGs are "using the courts to win" on gun control, but their reporting fails to mention even a single case in recent months where judges have sided with anti-gunners and ignores the multiple decisions that have kept many newly-imposed gun laws on ice while they're being litigated.

What Tennessee's Governor Doesn't Get About "Red Flag" Laws
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee's done some good things for Second Amendment supporters, including signing constitutional carry into law. But as Cam explains, the governor's call for a special session to pass a "temporary mental health restraining order" bill is off-base and out of step with both public safety and our fundamental civil rights.

Mace Says Gun Control Not the Answer, But GOP Can't Be Silent on Mass Shootings
Rep. Nancy Mace told Fox News Sunday's Shannon Bream that Republicans need to do more to respond to the threat of active shooter incidents, but while she argued that gun control isn't the answer, she also called on Congress to pass background check legislation; something most 2A advocates would argue is just another ineffective gun control "solution."

Who Are The "People" Protected By The Second Amendment?
Does the right to keep and bear arms apply only to "law-abiding" citizens, and if so, then what's to prevent state or federal governments from prohibiting gun possession for anyone who's ever gotten a speeding ticket or smoked a joint (even in states where it's legal)? Who exactly fits under the Second Amendment's umbrella of protection for the right of "the people" to keep and bear arms? Those questions are at the heart of a case that could soon be heard by SCOTUS, and the ramifications of any Supreme Court decision are likely to have a major impact on the gun control debate going forward.

WaPo's History of AR-15 Ads Falls Flat
The Washington Post's "analysis" of nearly 50 years of advertisements for the AR-15 misses the mark in many ways, particularly if the paper's goal was to portray the industry's marketing of modern sporting rifles as something nefarious. As Cam details, from the beginning the utility of the MSR was a key selling feature, even as consumer concerns shifted from hunting to self-defense over the decades.
