Columbus, Ohio, prepares to pass gun control laws even though state law says they can't. Activists claim Philadelphia is plagued by "killer gas stations." A medical report proves more guns do not cause more crime. And what's up with Michael Bloomberg's militia fetish?

Lee Williams, Chief Editor of the Second Amendment Foundation's Investigative Journalism Project, helps us understand recent insanity in the news. 

The City of Columbus has announced its intent to pass gun control laws. But local gun control has been illegal in Ohio for 15 years. So what are they talking about? What do they think gives them the authority to do this?

Finally, the 2022 general election is here and it's time to make your voice heard on candidates and issues in the state of Ohio. Control of the US Senate hangs in the balance. The Governor is being challenged by an avowed gun control fanatic. And the future of Ohio's Supreme Court is up for grabs.

Rob Sexton, Legislative Affairs Director of BFA, discusses these and other issues ahead of Election Day. 

The good news is that a federal bill is directing more money toward shooting ranges, plus a federal judge has dismissed a $10 billion lawsuit against gun manufacturers.

Rob Sexton, Legislative Affairs Director of BFA, joins the podcast to explain it all. 

According to gun control advocates and the media, the gun industry is a bad actor that profits from gun violence and targets youth and criminals with deceptive advertising. And worse, federal law protects the industry from all liability.

Amy Swearer, Legal Fellow at the Meese Center for Legal and Judicial Studies with the Heritage Foundation, debunks these myths concocted to attack the gun industry and open the door to predatory and expensive lawsuits.

Gun grabbers have come up with a sneaky new way to infringe your rights, this time using a "merchant category code" to track credit card sales at gun stores.

How could this tracking be abused by the financial industry and government authorities? And who's really behind this nefarious new scheme?

BFA Legislative Affairs Director Rob Sexton joins the podcast to discuss BFA PAC's grades and endorsements, this crazy election year, and why the insanity may keep repeating in future elections.

For years, many Ohio school boards had been training and arming teachers and staff in their schools. But Bloomberg-backed anti-gun activists filed a lawsuit to shut down these security programs with the help of a bad Ohio Supreme Court ruling.

Ohio Rep. Thomas Hall talks about introducing and passing HB 99, a bill backed by Buckeye Firearms Association, that reversed the court ruling and, beginning Sept. 12, 2022, returns authority to local school boards and puts armed teachers and staff back in schools.
