| Representative Margaret Conditt (Butler County District 55) held a fundraiser at the Middletown Sportsmens Club on Saturday, May 12, 2012.

Conditt ended up hosting a major event that drew over 200 attendees and raised tens of thousands of dollars. What happened? Rep. Conditt got an "accidental" assist from a group of anti-gun... |

It ought to be used in Somalia to hunt bad guys but not in America.

Speaking to Arutz Sheva, Rabbi Ronsky suggested that if necessary, terrorist murderers could be killed “in the field.” “In many cases, it doesn’t need to reach a court,” he said. Soldiers could simply shoot to kill instead of doing their utmost to bring terrorists in alive, “without giving the matter too much publicity,” he explained. “It happened in the past,” he added. The Supreme Court has ruled that IDF soldiers must bring terrorists in alive whenever possible, saying that to do otherwise is... |

Still, for someone who eats meat and cares about sustainable food, hunting makes perfect sense. •Hunting doesn't demand billions in corn and soy... |

It is kind of odd, because in Canada, our politicians keep on telling us that guns are the root of all evil. Oh, wait. Just got a flash. Maybe Norway is such a great place to... |
