USA – -(Ammoland.com)- Conservatives are taking the appropriately-named Linda Stasi of The New York Daily News to task, not just for speaking ill of the dead, but for equating a victim of the San Bernardino shootings with his Islamic terrorist murderers, and for purposely excluding him from those she referred to as “innocent victims.”

“They were two hate-filled, bigoted municipal employees interacting in one department,” Stasi wrote in a screed that...

When strict controls do not produce low murder rates, such as in Chicago or Washington D.C., the claim is made that...

Liberal gun reforms ‘bizarre’: advisory board member

IAN MACLEOD, OTTAWA CITIZEN – December 4, 2015

—–

The Liberals’ proposed gun law reforms are “just bizarre,” says a member of the committee advising Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale on firearms issues.

Tony Bernardo, who sits on the Canadian Firearms Advisory Committee, took aim at several promised gun law changes, especially one to shake up the committee’s membership to include public health advocates and women’s groups.

“Would you put non-medical experts on a medical committee? Would you take people who didn’t know anything about airplanes and put them on an aeronautical committee? It does seem a little bizarre,” the executive director of the Canadian Shooting Sports Association said in an interview.

The previous Conservative government reorganized...

MARIETTA, GA. (Ammoland.Com) – Shockingly big bucks — one the result of serious private-land management, two others taken on epic public-land hunts — fill the pages of the December-January issue of North American Whitetail, on stands now.

In total, there are eight amazing record-book whitetails profiled in this issue. With so much unique content featuring real-world giants, it’s little wonder the theme of this issue is “Celebrating the Season.” These great deer deserve to be honored, as they represent some of the finest taken by hunters across the continent during recent hunts.

That theme also applies to another feature in this issue: preparing a trio of great venison recipes that will enhance any holiday table. Add a dash of late-season hunting advice from two experts and the result is an issue perfect for brightening hunters’ sometimes-dreary days of early winter.

“Our readers are among the most avid hunters,” points out
