I Still Support the Second Amendment, Even After Las Vegas
Cries for gun control rang out while bullet casings were still hot on the streets of Las Vegas. The Right accused the Left of politicizing the tragedy for their own gain. Their criticisms are well-deserved, even though it must be admitted the calls for #GunControlNow are understandable. After all, another massacre just wrecked our hearts.

Trump to sign order rolling back health insurance regulations
President Trump will sign an executive order next week aimed at rolling back health insurance regulations put in place by former President Obama in an effort to undo his predecessor's signature health-care law, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The order will direct the Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS), Labor, and Treasury to make it easier for individuals to group together and purchase insurance through "association health plans," according to the report.

New California law allows jail time for using wrong gender pronoun
California health care workers who “willfully and repeatedly” decline to use a senior transgender patient's “preferred name or pronouns” could face punishments ranging from a fine to jail time under a newly signed law.
California Gov. Jerry Brown signed the legislation last week.
The sponsor, Democratic state Sen. Scott Wiener, has argued adamantly that nobody is going to be criminally prosecuted for using the wrong pronoun.
“It’s just more scare tactics by people who oppose all LGBT civil rights and protections,” he said in a statement last month.
