Super Bowl of Dishonesty: Michael Bloomberg Spends Big to Lie to
America
<[link removed]>
Earlier this month, Michael Bloomberg added to the quarter billion
dollar tally he has spent pursuing the Democrat presidential
nomination with an $11 million ad that aired during the Super Bowl. It
was his highest-profile effort to date in a relentless media blitz
meant to familiarize Americans with his name and a “life story”
that is more PR ad copy than actual biography. But the ad was perhaps
more revealing than Bloomberg intended, showing him to be long on
dishonesty and emotional manipulation and short on facts and
substance.

Virginia: Petty Bloomberg-bought Delegates Target NRA Firearms
Training and Right-to-Carry
<[link removed]>
Further revealing that their operative motive is political prejudice
rather than public safety, the Michael Bloomberg-bought Virginia House
of Delegates has escalated their direct attacks on law-abiding gun
owners and your NRA. Astute readers will remember that earlier this
year Delegate Dan Helmer (D-40) introduced HB 567, a bill calculated
to shut down the NRA Range in Fairfax, Va. This week, the House of
Delegates Public Safety Committee passed HB 264, which targets NRA’s
high-quality firearms training.

2020 Starts with Another NICS Record
<[link removed]>
The American people respond the same way every time anti-gun
politicians think they have an opening to make their gun control
dreams a reality. Law-abiding gun owners buy firearms. A lot of them,
because there are a lot of us.

LEGO Art Triggers Anti-gun Group
<[link removed]>
Back in 2012, we reported on a controversy over LEGO Heavy Weapons, a
guide on building toy guns out of LEGO bricks written by Jack Streat,
a then teenaged resident of the United Kingdom. Some parents were
aghast that the much-loved children’s toy could be used to make
“confrontational” playthings. When the same publisher followed up
by releasing Forbidden LEGO: Build the Models Your Parents Warned You
Against (authored by two former employees of the LEGO firm),
Britain’s Daily Telegraph virtually guaranteed a boost in book sales
by apparently describing it as “the Anarchist Cookbook of the
nursery.”

2020 Marks Year Of Change for Arms Trade Treaty
<[link removed]>
At the NRA-ILA Leadership forum last year President Trump sent the
international anti-firearm community into hysterics by announcing his
intent to withdrawal the United States from their crowning jewel, the
Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). Having never secured membership from China or
Russia, the thought of many was that in losing the treaty’s only top
tier arms exporter the ATT would die, but that could not be further
from the truth. Like every United Nations’ initiative, with or
without the United States, the show will always go on.
