99.8% of gun owners in Illinois have elected not to comply with the new PICA gun and magazine ban's registration requirement for existing owners.  That is effectively everyone.  In addition to the other reasons we've repeatedly mentioned (here and here, for example) for not registering your stuff, Cook County residents…

We mentioned the new "narrative" of right-wing extremism a day or two ago when we posted about Pritzker's outright fraudulent claim that crime was down in Chicago the past three years.  In reality, it's skyrocketed upwards rather dramatically.  But for months now, every time people dispute the Governor's make-believe proclamations,…

At Guns Save Life, we defend your right to self-defense.  Everyone's right to self-defense.  In recent days, a prosecutor in North Carolina charged a 15-year-old youth with murder after a stabbing at Southeast Raleigh High School.  At this point, unless that prosecutor is a Soros-funded hack, I see the charges…

Ladies and gentlemen, if you needed another reason not to register your guns with the State of Illinois, we have another one for our state's most populous county.  Cook County residents should know that if they registered guns restricted by the so-called "Protect Illinois Communities Act" they are admitting to…

Governor Pritzker is out making the circuit for two reasons:  trying to bring business and trying to burnish his creds to run for president next year.  With an affable smile on his face, he did his best to ignore reality Monday.  Maybe he was auditioning for "Baghdad Bob."  Who knows. …

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.  Along these lines, the aspiring brain trust at CNN actually did a journalistic drive-by reporting on shootings at American schools.  They use the highly charged word "school shootings" repeatedly, but acknowledge that most of these are "community violence" in nature, not…

More than a few folks are living with a bit of anxiety of late. Some have bought now-banned guns in the Land of Lincoln since January 10th and now they’re a little uneasy about the Illinois State Police showing up on their doorstep. Others have handguns with support braces on…

Americans - some of them at least - are trusting their gut when it comes to personal safety and security.  They see the insane violent crime happening all around them.  Maybe they've even been victimized themselves.  Their intuition is telling them that there's danger in the world today.  Serious danger.…

Everytown for Gun Violence, or for Gun Control, or whatever spends Michael Bloomberg's money to promote your disarmament.  Because disarmed people make better victims not only for criminals but also for those who think government is the answer to everything. This came across my virtual desk the other day. Over…

Robert Bevis, the owner of Law Weapons in Naperville, came up with an interesting idea that he thought might exempt rifles from gun registration in Illinois.  At first blush, we thought it was a great idea.  However, at GSL, we get readers from all corners of the firearm world.  At…
