RANDOM QUESTION: Has any progressive ever wondered why all mass shootings occur in gun-free zones?

EXCELLENT QUESTION: If a Muslim terrorist doesn’t represent all Muslims why does he represent all gun owners?

GLENN REYNOLDS: Don't be a sucker for socialism. Even Hillary's socialism.

FURNITURE FIREPOWER: Rising gun sales have triggered a new trend in furniture fashion -- coffee tables, cabinets, headboards and hutches with secret compartments for firearms.

We've been looking around for some furniture pieces for our new house, and several of the stores we've looked at either have concealment furniture for sale, or will build it to specification. It's not specialty furniture any more.

SURRENDERING TO DEATH: some thoughts on the Paris terrorist attack.

ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE: The Thinking Man’s Guide to Donald Trump.

ANGELO CODEVILLA: Political correctness is war by other means. And Donald Trump is leading the charge in fighting back.

IT'S NOT YOUR WATER: EPA gets welcome rebuke in Wyoming.
