California's Barbara Boxer, one of two virulently anti-gun U.S. Senators from California, has announced she will not be running for re-election in 2016. Could it be she senses America's shifting political landscape and doesn't want to bother with a bruising race for re-election?  She is, after all, the Senator the…

We wrote last week about liberal, gun-hating Hollywood execs looking at big declines in ticket sales in 2014. Not only were ticket sales off well into the double-digits, especially among the young, but attendance overall dropped 6%.  Ouch.
