It is shameful to see Walmart succumb to the pressure of the anti-gun elites. Lines at Walmart will soon be replaced by lines at other retailers who are more supportive of America's fundamental freedoms. The truth is Walmart's actions today will not make us any safer. Rather than place the blame on the criminal, Walmart has chosen to victimize law-abiding Americans. Our leaders must be willing to approach the problems of crime, violence and mental health with sincerity and honesty."   FOX NEWS Walmart to stop Alaska handgun sales, end sales of short-barrel rifle and handgun ammo nationwide Walmart is set to end sales of handguns in Alaska and will discontinue the sale of short-barrel rifle and handgun ammunition in stores nationwide, the super chain's president and CEO announced Tuesday afternoon.   NEWS Senate Republicans Rebuke Colleagues for Threatening SCOTUS On Thursday, all 53 Republican Senators signed onto a letter encouraging the Supreme Court to ignore an amicus curiae brief from five Democrat Senators that threatened the high court with restructuring if it did not rule the way those Senators wished.   SHARE THIS EMAIL   HELP DEFEND SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS   Donate Now  Register To Vote  Write Your Lawmakers  Volunteer!    FOLLOW NRA-ILA © 2017 National Rifle Association of America, Institute For Legislative Action.
