| Former New York City Mayor and billionaire gun control financier Michael Bloomberg wants you to know just how ardent a supporter of political pluralism and free speech he really is. In a piece for the magnate’s self-titled media outlet, Bloomberg took issue with the growing intolerance Americans seem to have for opposing political viewpoints. The subtitle of the item explained that “agreeing to disagree is a civic virtue.” But where was Bloomberg’s outrage on September 3rd, when the San Francisco Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution designating NRA a “domestic terrorist organization”? |

| In January, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear a Second Amendment challenge to a gun control law for the first time in nearly 10 years. The case arose from a New York City regulation that banned city residents with “premises” handgun licenses from taking their own legally-owned firearms outside Gotham for lawful purposes. The city defended the law all the way to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, insisting it was essential to public safety. But ever since the Supreme Court agreed to hear the appeal of that decision, city and state officials in New York have been running scared, desperately maneuvering to convince the justices to dismiss it. Now, it seems, their reckoning may be nigh, as the high court has scheduled the case for argument on Dec. 2. |

| Gun confiscation is the goal. Gun confiscation has always been the goal. Thanks to a recent outburst by 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Robert (Beto) Francis O’Rourke, potentially millions more Americans are now aware of this fact. |

| It’s no secret that the legacy media in America is struggling to maintain a certain level of trust with the general public. Polls show that Americans often feel that there is a great deal of bias permeating the nation’s newsrooms, with one survey even showing there is less confidence in the press than there is in Congress or the Executive Branch. |

| Next week, the Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hold hearings on “Behavioral Health, Second Amendment Rights, and other Gun Related Issues.” |

| On September 19th, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers, Attorney General Josh Kaul, Representative Melissa Sargent (D-48), and Senator Lena Taylor (D-4) held a press conference calling on the Legislature to violate the Second Amendment by: 1) allowing confiscation of firearms without due process; and 2) criminalizing private transfers. If the Legislature does not quickly comply with these demands, Gov. Evers threatened to push for a special session. |

| There is a growing debate in Africa regarding the replacement of traditional sustainable use hunting areas with photo-tourism. The reality is that only a very small percentage of wild Africa lends itself to the photo tourism model as a way of sustaining both wilderness areas and wildlife. The Dande safari area in Zimbabwe is just one of many examples of the Conservation Through Hunting model being the only realistic revenue generator for truly wild areas that do not lend themselves to photo-tourism. |

| Part 2 of this series focuses on the harm being done to the Tanzania safari industry do to ongoing import suspensions of both lion and elephant into the US. It clearly highlights the detrimental effect on Tanzania’s wildlife, people, and wilderness areas, all of which depend on revenue of a healthy safari hunting industry to conserve Tanzania’s wilderness and the wildlife that call it home. Mantheakis also addresses the misguided and fraudulent campaigns of the anti-hunting movement. |

|
| As the debate continues between the anti-hunting community and those who believe in the “Conservation Through Hunting” model, the unheard voice is the rural African who must live among the wild animals. It is these people who are most affected when politics supercedes science in the management of wildlife. |
|
|
| The future of both wildlife and wilderness in modern Africa continues to follow a proven path. Only when rural people living among the wildlife realize shared benefits of conservation based hunting in their area will they embrace the wildlife and work with safari operators to eliminate illegal poaching. Chartlon McCallum and the Dande Safari Area clearly paint this portrait of conservation success. |
