Bearing Arms' Cam & Co Townhall Media

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's John Diedrich joins Cam to discuss a recent meeting of the minds in the 2A community featuring gun owners, gun store owners, and mental health care workers all dedicated to saving lives without infringing on the right to keep and bear arms.

Retired ATF deputy assistant director Pete Forcelli says a new report by USA Today on guns recovered in Mexico isn't a "nightmare" for the firearms industry, as the paper alleges. Instead, he says the report paints gun dealers and makers in a false light while leaving out important information about the lax enforcement of straw buyers from the U.S. Attorney in Phoenix, as well as the corruption and graft south of the border that's fueling cartel violence.

After a marathon 12-hour board meeting on Monday that saw reformers win key leadership positions, NRA board members Amanda Suffecool and Jim Wallace join Cam with an inside look at last weekend's Annual Meeting, the fight to reform the organization, and both the challenges and opportunities ahead for the NRA as it seeks to regain the trust of members and 2A supporters.

With the Supreme Court's decision in Garland v. Cargill looming, gun control activists are engaging in some Big Brother-esque torture of the English language to defend the ATF's abuse of its regulatory authority.

The Supreme Court turned away two Second Amendment-related cases on Monday, rejecting cert petitions challenging Maryland's ban on "assault weapons" and New York City's "good moral character" requirement for possessing rifles and shotguns in the home. But the Court took no action on several cert requests challenging Illinois' ban on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines, giving 2A supporters a little hope that SCOTUS will still weigh in on a semi-auto ban in the months ahead.

California Rifle & Pistol Association president and co-founder of the Second Amendment Law Center Chuck Michel joins Cam to discuss the multiple challenges to "assault weapon" bans that are being considered for acceptance in the Supreme Court's weekly conference today, and says he's crossing "all his fingers" in the hopes that SCOTUS will grant cert to one more of the lawsuits.
