Hey everyone,

 

The ATF's ship-to-home gun rule finally hit the national news this week, and Reuters and Fox are getting some big things wrong.

In Alaska, a homeowner returned fire after copper thieves shot at him on his own property. And in Missouri, a man is facing murder charges after a road rage shooting — because anger is not self-defense. That last one is the reminder some people need.
