In case you forgot, in celebration of Independence Day and our freedoms as American citizens, for the entire month of July ALL new IGO
My attorney advised me not to utter a peep about it until after the case was wrapped up. He told me what I knew all along. That the trumped-up “ethics charges” I was being hit with by Iowa Public Safety Committee Chairman, Clel Baudler — an outspoken opponent of Constitutional Carry — was payback . . . Payback for our success in FORCING the General Assembly to pass Stand-Your-Ground and
As we told you last week, Woodbury County recently voted to lift their “Gun Free Zone” policies in accordance with the new Iowa code which took effect this past weekend.

Thanks in part to your calls and emails, I’m pleased to report that the Council voted 3-1 to overturn their previous ‘Gun Free Zone’ policies! In light of this, Iowa Gun Owners is being FLOODED with calls,
Last week the Iowa Supreme Court published an opinion piece wherein they announced their intention to disregard the legislation passed earlier this year that would end ‘Gun Free Zones’ in county government buildings.

Never mind the fact that the court’s

In the wake of today’s assassination attempt in Washington D.C., gun-control advocates like Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe are already trotting out the predictable demand for more gun control. Never mind the fact that the shooter already had passed a background check in his home state of Illinois — proving how worthless those checks are in the first place.
