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.

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.
