A recent report at the New Hampshire Political Buzz website points out the incredible hypocrisy of the American Medical Association’s push to declare “gun violence” a medical “crisis.”

The AMA claims murder is an “epidemic,” pointing to some 30,000 annual “gun violence” deaths a year as proof. What they don’t tell you is that two-thirds of those deaths are suicides—no doubt tragedies, but not what most would consider to be “gun violence.”

As New Hampshire lawmakers try for a third straight year to pass a “permitless” carry law, Senate Bill 12 has been scheduled for a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee next Tuesday at 9 a.m.

Sponsored by Republican state Sen. Jeb Bradley, the measure would repeal the license requirement to carry a concealed pistol or revolver for anyone not otherwise prohibited. For those who choose to obtain licenses, Senate Bill 12 also would increase the length of time in which a license is valid.

If Republican state Rep. Rick Becker has his way, North Dakota residents will soon be able to carry firearms without a permit. Becker is planning to introduce a bill this session that would make the Peace Garden State the 12th state to allow constitutional carry. 

Becker sees the law as bringing his sate back in line with the original intent of the framers of the U.S. Constitution. "Having this bill into play, if it becomes law, brings us a little bit closer to the original intent of the Second Amendment, and so I think it's kind of an easy one,” said Becker. 

On Thursday, Sen. Mike Hilgers introduced a bill into the Nebraska legislature that would ensure that any firearm or ammunition laws passed would be consistent statewide. Legislative Bill 68 is good news for gun owners since, should it pass, it will serve to protect their gun rights.

The sound of breaking glass at 4:30 a.m. never leads to anything good. And when a Tanglewood, Texas, homeowner heard that sound last Tuesday, his first instinct was his best: He grabbed his gun.

Mike Colgin—a retiree who never expected to be walking down the hallway to encounter a home invader—told Houston KTRK-13, “It’s really surreal. I come up to the corner, and I look through the glass in the grandfather clock. That's how I can make out who it was.” Colgin said the intruder, Julio Socoy-Velasquez, was already halfway through a broken window in the living room, so he acted immediately.
