Each year, more than 40,000 Americans die from drug overdoses. That's on par with the annual death toll from HIV/AIDS at the peak of the US epidemic, in the late '80s and early '90s, and far more than are killed each year from car accidents or gun violence. More than half of those overdose deaths involved opioids, a class of drugs including heroin, Vicodin, OxyContin, and fentanyl.

Terry McAuliffe admirably defended the rights of law-abiding citizens to protect themselves and others by signing legislation that restored Virginia�s concealed carry reciprocity with 25 states. This allowed millions of law-abiding gun owners to travel safely in and out of the commonwealth while ensuring the rights of Virginians are recognized in states that have concealed carry reciprocity agreements. |

Dury says it's good preparation for when federal inspectors walk through the door.

Dear Mrs. O�Neil,
Earlier today, I had the opportunity to read your open letter to the actress in the short film, �Never Met Her�, and being both deeply involved in the debate on guns and somewhat familiar with the complexities of the history of feminism I feel compelled to respond to what I came to recognize as both a failure to understand who and what you were criticizing and a tone that betrayed your stated objective of speaking to her as a peer from a place of equal standing. A conversation from equal standing was never your intent. |

If someone made a master list of uncomfortable dinner-table topics (that probably exists somewhere already, though) gun control would probably be in the top five. It�s a topic that requires not only the wherewithal to bring up painful and traumatic events in U.S. history, both recent and distant, and also requires that anyone discussing it buckle down for a long, grueling conversation. Or debate, depending on the company and the time of year.

Guns have always been a big hit in Wisconsin. It's a hunting state.
And while deer hunters account for a lot of the gun sales, don't be fooled, the popularity of handguns is growing too.
