Alarm Over Growing Use of Weapons at Rallies
by Guardian, via GunPolicy.org on August 27, 2021 at 12:00 am
A gunfight in Portland, Oregon, last week is intensifying concerns over escalating violence during contentious rallies in the city, as far-right demonstrators and anti-fascist counter-protesters have repeatedly faced off. The Portland police bureau charged a 65-year-old man from Gresham, Oregon, over a gunfight in the city's downtown during violent clashes on Sunday. Authorities say Dennis Anderson drew a concealed handgun and shot at a group of anti-fascists who were... [Guardian, via GunPolicy.org]
Mexico Sues US Gunmakers to Stop Weapons Crossing Border
by Guardian, via GunPolicy.org on August 4, 2021 at 12:00 am
The Mexican government has launched legal action against US gunmakers in an unprecedented attempt to halt the flow of guns across the border, where US-made weapons are routinely used in cartel gun-battles, terror attacks on civilians – and increasingly to challenge the state itself. The Mexican government is suing six gunmakers in a Massachusetts court, alleging negligence in their failure to control their distributors and that the illegal market in Mexico "has been...

Pandemic gun violence surge was not linked to rise in gun sales, study finds
by Guardian, via GunPolicy.org on July 9, 2021 at 12:00 am
Gun homicides surged across the United States during the coronavirus pandemic, in the same year that Americans bought a record-breaking number of guns. But some of America's leading gun violence researchers have concluded that what might seem like an obvious cause-and-effect – a surge in gun buying leads to a surge in gun violence – is not supported by the data. Through July of last year, there was no clear association between the increase in firearm purchases and... [Guardian, via GunPolicy.org]
New York Defines Illegal Firearms Use as a 'Public Nuisance'
by Conversation, via GunPolicy.org on July 7, 2021 at 12:00 am
Could calling the illegal use of firearms a "public nuisance" bring an end to the gun industry's immunity from civil lawsuits? New York will soon test that notion. State lawmakers recently amended New York's public nuisance statute to specifically include marketing and sales practices that contribute to gun crimes. Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the bill on July 6, 2021, after declaring gun violence a "disaster emergency." I've been researching lawsuits against the gun... [Conversation, via GunPolicy.org]
How Bad is the Rise in US Homicides?
by Guardian, via GunPolicy.org on June 30, 2021 at 12:00 am
There's been a wave of media coverage this summer about an increase in homicides across the United States, with attention often focused on the same political question: will Americans still want to defund or even reform the police if "violent crime" is on the rise? Anxiety about violent crime is often used to win elections. Police and politicians routinely share misleading, out-of-context crime statistics to advance their agendas. Fearmongering about rising crime has... [Guardian, via GunPolicy.org]

Axios: Don't look now, but GOP has the Senate momentum
on October 3, 2022 at 1:31 pm
<![CDATA[As Glenn Reynolds likes to say, don't get cocky. Republicans have a distinct disadvantage in the Senate midterm races this year. They are defending ten more seats than Democrats, and they also have five retirements to contest with newly drafted candidates.]]>
Has Putin lost his milblogger propagandists -- and Kherson?
on October 3, 2022 at 12:31 pm
<![CDATA[And can Vladimir Putin survive without them? The Kremlin has relied on manipulated narratives of Russian success in Ukraine -- as well as outrageous propaganda against Ukrainians and the West -- sourced mainly through milbloggers and nationalist front-line reporters. Those have fed Putin's state-run media since the start of the war, especially after Putin outlawed any true independent reporting in February.]]>

O'Rourke exploits deaths of Uvalde school shooting victims in new campaign ad
on October 3, 2022 at 12:31 am
<![CDATA[Desperate times call for desperate moves by political candidates. The race for Texas governor between the incumbent, Republican Greg Abbott, and the Democrat challenger, Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke is getting particularly ugly, thanks to O'Rourke's willingness to exploit the tragic deaths of 19 school children and 2 teachers in a mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas on May 24, 2022.]]>
SCOTUS approval drops to a new low
on October 2, 2022 at 11:31 pm
<![CDATA[The next Supreme Court term is set to begin tomorrow, but a recent survey suggests that fewer Americans are excited about the prospect and they are concerned about the direction the court is taking. Along with virtually every other branch of the government at every level, along with our federal law enforcement agencies, the Supreme Court has now registered a drop in public confidence and approval that The Hill is describing as a "historic low." According to Gallup, fewer than half of all Americans still have at least "a fair amount" of trust in the court. The analysts reporting on this news are looking to blame the shift almost entirely on the court's decision to return abortion laws to the prerogative of the states, but as we'll discuss below, there are other culprits at play here.]]>
