There continues to be a lot of talk about a planned National Concealed Carry Reciprocity Bill and while this bill has not been at the forefront of Trump's plan, many states are taking the initiative of a pro-gun presidency to attempt to push through state expansions of not only concealed carry bills but full-on Constitutional Carry texts. If you follow Concealed Carry Inc. you will have likely seen many stories about these bills going through statehouses in recent months and that's because there is usually a new bill going through a vote every single week somewhere in the U.S. It's because of that, we decided to funnel all of the information coming out about these new laws into one place for you to be able to see just where your state and every other state is currently at on the path of Constitutional Carry https://www.concealedcarry.com/reciprocity/constitutional-carry-state-by-state/ Pyramyd Air Your one-stop shop for everything airgun!

After a violent weekend with 73 people shot, 10 of whom were killed, Lightfoot has declined to ask for help from the Illinois National Guard. But she has eagerly accepted help from the Department of Justice. They are decisions that help shape a playbook to thwart what the mayor herself calls a crisis of violence in Chicago. https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2021/08/10/chicago-lightfoot-crime-record/ New Analysis: Did Trump Actually Win California?

Democrats Want to Abolish the Police and Confiscate Our Guns A radical, utterly sincere, and determined movement is on to abolish police departments. A radical, utterly sincere, and determined movement is on to confiscate our guns, to confiscate our right to defend ourselves. This is no accident. But first the facts… Links to mainstream Democrats calling for the police to be defunded, which will obviously result in the police being abolished Links to mainstream Democrats like Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and others calling for — not just gun control — but straight up confiscation https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/06/06/nolte-democrats-want-to-abolish-the-police-and-confiscate-our-guns/ Federal diversity minister says conversations about race and policing need to happen Federal Minister of Diversity and Inclusion and Youth Bardish Chagger says that the conversations around race, defunding police, and the fears that Black people and other people of colour feel around law enforcement need to happen, but at this point the government is offering no indication they think that defunding is the solution. “We recognize that there are people from coast to coast to coast that are having their voices heard and asking for the necessary reforms. And right now we need to be listening, and we need to be hearing people's lived experiences. We cannot dismiss them,” Chagger said in an interview on CTV’s Question Period when asked her position on defunding police. “There is a reality that there are certain segments of our population that are scared of their interactions when it comes to people who provide public safety within our communities. And these conversations need to take place,” Chagger said. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/federal-diversity-minister-says-conversations-about-race-and-policing-need-to-happen-1.4971802 What Will Replace the Minneapolis Police? The City’s Native American Community Has Some Ideas. Late one night at the end of May, as spray paint, fires, and looting reigned across Minneapolis, an Indigenous hip-hop artist named Tall Paul was roving the streets in a truck, looking for looters and arsonists. “It looked like that movie The Purge,” he says. “It was lawless.” Days before, Paul had joined the American Indian Movement Patrol, a group of Native Americans volunteering to maintain neighborhood safety and protect key buildings from destruction amid the rebellion. Paul and the other volunteers on shift were on their way to check on the offices of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe when they saw four white teenagers looting a nearby liquor store. They stopped their truck and three of the teens fled, while Paul’s group caught up with the fourth. Soon his buddies returned, and all were ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPAUUPbGfJU

No, Republicans Did Not Start the Culture War over Transgenderism The movement to preserve sex-based rights is defensive in nature. The New York Times recently published a piece titled “How a Campaign Against Transgender Rights Mobilized Conservatives,” in which its authors paint conservatives as aggressors in the culture war over transgenderism. Really, opposition to transgenderism is a defensive movement. The political story is more about how a campaign for so-called transgender rights mobilized not only conservatives but also women’s-rights campaigners and moderates. https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/04/no-republicans-did-not-start-the-culture-war-over-transgenderism/ ‘Rising With Courage and Vigor’: Kevin Roberts Lays Out Plan to Win Culture War The 2024 presidential election may be conservatives’ last chance to save America, Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts said on Thursday.

How did a country famed for its sensible, moderate attitudes and customs transform itself into the front rank of the woke phalanx? We are an immense country – one infinitely rich, blessed by nature (with the possible exception of winter) and mostly pristine. Yet on almost every front, we are becoming an embarrassment – to ourselves and, increasingly, to the world. https://rightedition.com/2023/04/20/justin-trudeau-canadas-clown-prince-is-the-future-of-the-woke-west/?preview_id=130553&preview_nonce=ab745d7787&_thumbnail_id=120367&preview=true Province Passes Saskatchewan Firearms Act Today government passed The Saskatchewan Firearms Act to enhance public safety across Saskatchewan and protect the rights of lawful firearms owners.
