I wrote earlier today about Kay Hagans “Bipartisan Sportsmans Act of 2014” and how I suspected that it was going to be a trojan horse for gun control. Earlier today Republicans who had cosponsored the bill also apparently felt the same way, and voted to kill the bill. Gun owners: 1 Kay Hagans attempt to save face with gun owners: 0

Kay Hagan (D – NC) has been championing the “Bipartisan Sportsmans Act of 2014” which is a bill originally introduced to allow more hunting and shooting privileges on federal land. I’ve been skeptical of this bill since it was introduced by Hagan. She is reviled by most gun owners here in NC, even after her surprising vote on Manchin-Toomey last year. The Washing Post is reporting that the new Sportsmans Act is going to be …

Has everyone seen this today? CNN, the channel that nobody watches apparently put a poll down at the very bottom of the page on their website (a place where nobody ever goes) regarding gun control. I think TTAG posted about it first, and from there every pro-gun Facebook page around was sharing it and making it go viral. I kept seeing things like “Fire Mission!!!! Zomg!!!”, “Hit this important poll!”, “Vote right now!” Why do …

Even in their scenario, only the law abiding citizen loses his guns, and the criminals stay armed. Herp. Derp. Nice try.

Tonight a pro-gun facebook page posted this picture without comment to their page. I quickly scanned it, and didn’t think much of it. I ended up scrolling past it again a couple of minutes later, and I gave it a closer look after I noticed that there were lots of comments asking where these cards could be purchased. As a gun blogger (I think I’ve achieved that status now?) I’m going to come out and …

Ben sent me this information late last night, and I felt compelled to share: Someone over at Reddit has done some awesome research and noticed that as soon as concealed carry became legal at Colorado State University, violent crime fell through the floor. You know what’s sad about this? Under the insane anti-gun laws that were passed in Colorado earlier this year, concealed carry on college campuses is no longer legal. You might remember some …

Recently Illinois passed a concealed carry law that allows for restaurant carry. This happened right around the same time that HB937 was passed in NC which will also allow for carrying a concealed handgun in an establishment where alcohol is sold and consumed. The anti-gun media is having a field day with this in both states, which we expected would happen. What I didn’t expect was that so many people would spread blatant untruths about …

I know this is late notice, but hopefully you already received this information from the GRNC Email List. If not, you should consider becoming a GRNC member and supporting the cause. Anyways, tomorrow morning (June 22, 2013) The Illegal Mayors Against Guns Mayors Against Illegal Guns tour bus will be making a stop in Raleigh at Moore Square at 9:00AM. If you are available, you should come down and help us show Bloomberg that his …

According to an article posted on The Hill, they may be. The article, which has been picked up by numerous bloggers and forums has begun to go viral around pro-2A circles in the past several hours. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) told The Hill on Friday that he’s had “a lot of discussions” with Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on guns. Yep. House Republicans are starting to talk about guns. Boehner has shown time …
