In a strong bipartisan effort, House Democrats and Republicans recently joined forces to introduce H.R. 6691, the “Second Amendment Enforcement Act.” This critical NRA-backed legislation would overturn Washington, D.C.’s newly enacted “emergency gun control laws,” which continue to defy the U.S. Supreme Court’s unambiguous decision in District of Columbia v.

If Barak Obama could have picked a running mate more hostile to gun owners than Joe Biden, I can’t think of who it might be. Picking a consummate Washington insider who brags about “writing” the Assault Weapons Ban looks more like the same old elitist East Coast crap than “change you can believe in.”

Oklahoma police investigating the shooting deaths of two girls have told area residents with guns to bring them in for a test to determine whether they were used in the attack, sparking concern among those who own guns for hunting and self-defense.
