“Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died
protecting it."

On this Memorial Day, please take a moment of silence to remember the fallen who gave their lives to protect our freedom!

Want to do something about violence in the First State? Ask your friend Attorney General Kathy Jennings to stop releasing criminals so quickly!

Maybe try acting on the multiple recommendations made in the report, studying violence in Wilmington, but never enacted. It actually looked at root causes of violence- criminals and theorists behavior, instead of banning objects.

Ultimately, this office will continue to erode our right to keep and bare arms while doing nothing about violent repeat offenders. 

Governor Matt Meyer has signed Executive Order #9, establishing the Office of Gun Violence Prevention and Community Safety, a coordinated statewide effort to address gun violence and promote safer communities across Delaware. The Office will operate under the Department of Safety and Homeland Securi

Final day of NRAAM...

04/26/2025

NRAAM day 2 in the books... robust membership meeting. And, an unexpected surprise. Our very own Mason Hague was acknowledged as the "Youngest Life Member in Attendance" at the ripe old age of 14. Even managed to get the plaque signed by NRA President Bob Barr, NRA EVP/CEO Doug Hamlin, NRA Secretary John Frazier, and the Head of NRA-ILA John Commerford. Look for Mason in the next NRA magazine.

And the lunacy continues. What purpose does this bill serve other than to make it illegal for a person to defend themselves or possibly even hunt with a firearm?

Delaware Democrats continue to gut your ability to defend yourself and your families, INCLUDING IN YOUR HOUSE OR WORK.

While it appears the intent is to prohibit shooting AT the building, the wording and lack of specificity could easily be misconstrued to charge someone who accidentally shot it in self defense by stating that discharging a weapon in the direction of one of these buildings is likely to result in shooting at the building and a reasonable person would have or should have known that this is a possible outcome, thereby making a felony out of a self defense situation.

What about hunting? While there are distance requirements from structures and roadways, ultimately there is likely something beyond what you're shooting at and since we are always supposed to "know what is beyond our target," does this now count under this definition of knowingly discharging a firearm at it?

Time to start up the phone calls and showing up at Legislative Hall to oppose this.

Delaware is in the 3rd Circuit. This win for PA SHOULD positively impact our own legal challenge to Delaware’s 18-20 year old possession ban.

🚨 FPC WIN 🚨
