STUDENTS HATE ‘TOXIC MASCULINITY’. . . BUT DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
January 18, 2019THE LIE OF “GUN VIOLENCE”
February 1, 2019SHOT SHOW THOUGHTS……
While the Supreme Court's decision to hear a pivotal gun-rights case was a popular topic of conversation at this week's Shot Show in Las Vegas, the most significant takeaway was the overwhelming number of exhibitors offering the type of firearms that keep the gun-grabbers up at night. The display of NFA-compliant, AR-styled "pistols" (calibered from .22 to .308), high-capacity tactical shotguns, and .50 caliber sniper rifles was remarkable. If the Dems' criterion for banning guns is, in essence, whether or not a gun is "scary looking" (which seems to be pretty much the case), the Shot Show was a veritable fright fest. The most amazing statistic, however, is that 67,000 (yes, 67,000) people attended the Shot Show and - despite the presence of tens of thousands of firearms and the absence of any security-screening for backpacks or weapons - there was not a single incident of "gun violence". All of the guns behaved themselves admirably.
