  1. Obama's new choice for ATF

    President Barack Obama's recent announcement of a broad gun violence agenda included an interesting nugget of news: He has given up on his nomination of Andrew Traver to head the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Traver, who headed the ATF field office in Chicago, was selected by Obama in 2010 to lead the agency. He ran into determined opposition from the gun lobby, which argued that he didn't sufficiently support gun rights.

  4. What does a 'secure' border look like?

    Once, the mesas and canyons extending east of the Pacific Ocean held the most popular routes for illegal immigrants heading into the U.S. Dozens at a time sprinted across the border into San Diego, passing agents who were too busy herding others to give pause.

  5. Focus on deranged, not their guns

    Maryland's political MOB (Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller, Gov. Martin O'Malley and House Speaker Michael E. Busch) are now pushing for more gun control laws on law abiding citizens with the Firearm Safety Act of 2013. Maryland today already has some of the most stringent gun control laws in America. It needs to enforce the current laws, and the courts need to hand out stronger sentences.
