Hillary Clinton: I Don’t Want To Repeal Second Amendment, I Want To Regulate It

by AWR Hawkins Hillary Clinton tells Fox News Sunday she is “not looking to repeal the Second Amendment,” but she does intend to regulate it. Host Chris Wallace asked Clinton about the existence of an individual right to bear arms, as relates to the Supreme Court’s seminal decision in District of Columbia v. Heller (2008). Although Clinton dodged a similar question twice when asked by ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on June 5, she answered this time by saying “an individual right is in line with constitutional thinking.” However, she hedged in her answer by stressing that no right is free from government oversight and regulation. She… View Article

Women Are ‘Fastest-Growing Group of Gun Owners’

by AWR Hawkins Gun sales are on a record-setting pace since President Obama took office, and a driving force behind those sales are the women who have emerged as the “fastest-growing group of gun owners” in America. The emergence of women as a gun-owning demographic to be reckoned with became evident in 2011 and 2012. The NRA reports a Gallup Poll showing a 23 percent jump in female firearms ownership between 2005 and 2011, and this poll is complimented by National Shooting Sports Foundation research showing that among those female gun owners, the largest percentage own more than one gun.

Gun Controllers In Oregon, Washington Push West Coast ‘Assault Weapons’ Ban

by AWR Hawkins Gun control groups in Oregon and Washington state are pushing for gun laws similar to those in California, which would ban “assault weapons” from the West Coast. The gun control proponents are operating under the banner of Washington Ceasefire and Oregon Ceasefire, but are actually “a coalition of groups and lawmakers.” According to KUOW, Washington Ceasefire’s Ralph Fascitelli cited illegal uses of “assault weapons” in Orlando, San Bernardino, Dallas, and Roseburg, Ore., as justification for pursing the ban. He said, “We’re just seeing one shooting after another and the carnage higher. You know, enough is enough. What… View Article

Twice as Many Women Getting Concealed Permits During Obama’s Second Term

by AWR Hawkins The latest study from the Crime Prevention Research Center’s (CPRC) John Lott Jr. shows that women got concealed carry permits at twice the pace of men during Barack Obama’s second term. According to CPRC, “The number of women with permits has increased twice as quickly as the number of men with permits.” The study also shows that there is evidence which “suggests that permit-holding is increasing about 75 percent more quickly among minorities than among whites.” This information poses a direct challenge to the left’s relentless claims that the customers driving gun sales to record levels are the… View Article

Democrat Senator Blasts Donald Trump For Supporting Teachers Who Want Guns For Self-Defense

by AWR Hawkins Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) is blasting Donald Trump for supporting teachers who want guns for self-defense. Trump has been clear throughout his campaign that he thinks gun-free zones — on campus or off — are killing zones. In fact, during the October 28 Republican debate Trump said gun-free zones simply provide “target practice for sickos.” And following the October 1 shooting in the Umpqua Community College gun-free zone, The Hill quoted Trump saying, “I’ll tell you, if you had a couple of the teachers or someone with guns in that room, you would have been a hell… View Article

Kesha At Democrat Rally: We Decide Who Gets ‘F**king Weapons’

Munich: Background Checks, Gun Bans, Licensing Requirements Fail Again

by AWR Hawkins When David Ali Sonboly shot and killed nine people in Munich on Friday, he proved again the impotency of background checks, gun bans, and a whole list of other “stringent” and “restrictive” gun controls, none of which kept him from getting his hands on the pistol he used to slaughter innocents. The Sun reports that Sonboly’s victims were “nearly all … aged between 14 and 21.” He used Facebook posts to lure people to a McDonald’s in the area where he planned to attack. Cell phone video captured images of 18-year-old Sonboly calmly stepping out of the restaurant, raising his gun, and… View Article
