Nov 27, 2021 – The gun control utopia of New Jersey can't keep itself out of our pages. It's real easy to point out their failures when there are so many. Take for example a recent case involving a dispute that resulted in an attempted murder charge. While all the details of the event...

Oct 10, 2023 – The politics and mechanics of the tragic events that are unfolding with our friends on the other side of the globe need not apply here. That is, there’s a conflict. This piece is not about their conflict, but rather, how many here view their conflict. The terror attacks in Israel are...

Oct 9, 2023 – A recent editorial over at The Trace does yeoman’s work to try to fortify arguments that are not outdated, but went previously ignored, pulling attention away from the bigger picture. There are a few issues with the reporting. For starters, the statistics. Second, and more importantly, The Trace is fixated...

Oct 8, 2023 – The Earth-shattering terrorist attacks in Israel took the globe by surprise on Saturday, October 7, 2023.

Jan 8, 2022 – Gun ownership in the United States has been on the rise the last two years in a big way. The pages of Bearing Arms has explored this more than once. Left of center pundits might peg this rise as a one-off, or perhaps try to blame the uptick in violent crime...

Jan 20, 2022 – A recent research letter concerning suicide by firearm highlights something that most gun owners already know.

Jan 30, 2022 – If the 14th Amendment protects privacy in a way that has had people screaming “My body, my choice” for decades, then it has to apply here (as it should in many other areas that are relevant to current affairs). The right to privacy is something all citizens are supposed to...

Jan 27, 2022 – If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably got a fairly long list of channels that you subscribe to through YouTube. To put it lightly, I personally take in a lot of content. I’m subscribed to more than I can take in. Between audio-only podcasts, as well as video material, I’m...

Jan 22, 2022 – The Second Amendment applies to all bearable arms. Oftentimes people tend to forget that this right is not just about guns. Think of a group of knights in a movie and their “call to arms!” Those arms were swords. Right? What else is a bearable arm that’s protected by the...
