Sen. Barbara Boxer (D., Calif.) said she and other progressives had “proven it in California” that “sensible gun laws work” during a press conference one day after the mass shooting in San Bernardino, California, that left 14 dead.

Boxer, after making remarks about gun control legislation alongside fellow California Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D.) and other Democrats Thursday, took the podium back from Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) to respond to a reporter who said Congress had not passed gun control laws after mass shootings in the past and wondered why this massacre’s aftermath would prove any different.   Continue reading “Boxer: ‘Sensible Gun Laws Work, We’ve Proven It in California’”

Update at 8:40 p.m. ET: Senate passed legislation to defund Planned Parenthood and repeal the Affordable Care Act, with a 52-47 vote.

Here is our original post:

Senate Republicans are expected to achieve two goals on Thursday that have long eluded them — they’ll pass a bill that defunds Planned Parenthood and repeals the Affordable Care Act. The House has managed to vote more than 50 times to repeal all or part of the health care law, but it’s always been tougher in the Senate, where Republicans don’t have the 60 votes needed to pass bills Democrats oppose. This year, they’ll have a special procedure at their disposal to get around that.   Continue reading “Senate Passes Bill To Defund Planned Parenthood, Repeal Health Law”

On Monday November 30th, I broke the story identifying the two Adams County, Idaho Sheriffs who killed racnehr Jack Yantis on Nov. 1st. The cops and the corporate media had refused to identify the two Sheriffs for a month, so I published it myself with the help of some people who live in Council Idaho and gave me the details. The Sheriff’s names were Brian Wood and Cody Roland. My article went super-viral and thirteen hours after I published the story, late Monday night, Sheriff Ryan Zollman released their names officially.   Continue reading “WOW: Wife of Deputy Who killed Jack Yantis says “I am very proud of both of these men!””

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- It took a while for the identity of the suspects in yesterday’s San Bernardino massacre to be identified, a fact not lost on those of us riveted by the unfolding story and wondering what was taking so long to at least provide a general description of suspects who were already taken down. With it finally coming out that they were a “devout Muslim” and his Saudi Arabian wife, it makes it fair to wonder what political correctness pressure authorities were under, self-imposed or otherwise.

It’s not that unfair of a speculation.   Continue reading “Attacks on Gun Owners Backfiring as Facts on San Bernardino Shootings Emerge”

Nearly all the massacres and mass shooting that occur in Western countries are planned by US and Israeli elements in order to spread Islamophobia and justify attacking Muslims, an African American activist and speaker says.

The recent mass shooting in San Bernardino, California, where 14 people were killed and over a dozen others were injured is a “sad event” that is very similar to the terror attacks in Paris and 9/11, which were orchestrated by US and Israeli intelligence agencies, said Abdul Alim Musa, director of Masjid Al-Islam in Washington, DC and member of the Institute of Contemporary Islamic Thought.   Continue reading “US, Israel orchestrate mass shootings to spread Islamophobia: Activist”

CHICAGO (AP) — The number of U.S. police officers charged with murder or manslaughter for on-duty shootings has tripled this year — a sharp increase that at least one expert says could be the result of more video evidence.

In the past, the annual average was fewer than five officers charged. In the final weeks of 2015, that number has climbed to 15, with 10 of the cases involving video.   Continue reading “More US police charged with murder, manslaughter in 2015”

Get this: The location where the shooting was carried out today in San Bernardino — the Inland Regional Center — has been subjected to monthly active shooter drills, we’re now learning.

White House officials are seeking a way to use executive authority to close the so-called gun show loophole that allows thousands of people to buy guns each year without a background check, but complicated legal issues have slowed the process.

Almost three years ago, President Obama asked Congress to change the law to require background checks for weapons sold at gun shows, but a bill to do so died in the Senate – dashing administration hopes for legislative action to address the loophole.   Continue reading “White House plans executive action to expand background checks for gun sales”
