Massachusetts Gun Listening Tour. Good Idea? Or Stage for Anti-Gunners?

Charlie Cook March 22, 2023

We all know there’s certain states in the union that are just rabidly anti-gun. Massachusetts is one of them. It seems as though the state is sponsoring what seems to be an unbalanced, anti-gun, “listening tours” that can pop up anywhere at any time. Charlie Cook, host of the Riding Shotgun with Charlie podcast, was present at one of these so-called “listening tours” recently.

What happens when fake cops, real guns, and the law collide? In this episode, we dive into undercover policing, fake U.S. Marshals, protest gun laws, and what happens when ego and ignorance collide in law enforcement. From viral stories of cops misusing unmarked vehicles to concealed carriers being detained just for carrying—this conversation pulls no punches.We also explore the rise of police ego, how cops get the law wrong (especially with the 1st & 2nd Amendments), and why some activists are actually helping improve policing. Plus: appendix carry vs. 3 o’clock, red dots on handguns, and why the Staccato might be the ultimate “cheat code.”🔥 Can you tell a real cop from a fake one? 💥 Should police detain you just for carrying a firearm legally? 🎯 And does carrying a gun to a protest make YOU the aggressor?Watch till the end for a raw, unfiltered discussion you won’t hear anywhere else.💬 Got a question for me?

Smith hosts the Four Boxes Diner 2A channel, which was named the Top Voice of the 2nd Amendment at the 2025 Gundies Awards. Mark Smith is a constitutional attorney, a member of the United States Supreme Court Bar, a professor, a frequent Fox News guest, and a New York Times bestselling author. Mark's eight books include Disarmed: What The Ukraine War Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, Israel Disarmed: What the October 7 Attack Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, The Official Handbook of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, First They Came for the Gun Owners, and Duped: How the Anti-gun Lobby Exploits the Parkland School Shooting, and How Gun Owners Can Fight Back. Mark’s scholarship has been used by lawyers before the U.S. and his work has been quoted by a federal judge (Roger Benitez) in declaring California’s so-called “assault weapon” ban to be unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. To defend your liberty, you need to understand the “four boxes” of American liberty: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammunition box.

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #233 Phil Journey NRA BOD MemberI had a chance to catch up with Phil Journey at the NRA Annual Meetings back in April. He’s quite an interesting man with some long roots in the Second Amendment and with the NRA. He was on the list of four reform candidates last year in 2024. This year, of course, there were 28 reformers that people were supporting, many who did get onto the Board of Directors of the NRA. He spends times telling us about his collection of firearms, how he got into politics and ran for office, and some of the inside dirt on what was going on with NRA leadership.Phil is from Kansas and grew up with a couple of uncles, one was a gunsmith and the other was an inventor. His father used to hunt and got him into shooting. In law school, he got into competitive shooting and made it to second place in IPSC in Oklahoma. At one point, he spent more time making sure everyone else had the rights to keep shooting and owning firearms.While in law school he had three semesters on Constitutional law, one semester was only on the First Amendment, but nothing on the Second Amendment. Working on his dissertation, he pointed out that at that time, much of the thought was that it was a collectivist theory right and the courts reflected that. But he realized it was an individual right. That’s when he decided this was going to be his cross to bear.Getting out of law school, he started working on some campaigns for the US Senate. He learned a lot in those days, thinking candidates would read some of the pro-gun literature he would give candidates. Back then he started his ties with the NRA as an election volunteer coordinator, He got 5,000 people to come to a city council meeting. This was how he got involved in political action committees.Phil’s career was as a practicing attorney. He was appointed to the Kansas Senate in 2003. After a handful of years in the state Senate, he was elected to the Judicial District Court. Having these positions did interfere with his business. He also got into other businesses like storage rentals. At one point, he sold several firearms to fund one of his campaigns so he didn’t have to ask for money. Phil is also into collecting cars as well as guns. We learn about the extensive collection, how he acquired some of the guns and cars.Back in 1995, Neal Knox helped get him elected to the NRA Board of Directors. Even back then there were issues with Wayne LaPierre. One is that if there was a contract that was more than $100,000, it had to be in writing and passed by two of the three executive officers. LaPierre would make them oral contracts and not run them by the executives. Journey and Knox did get pushed off the board, but only Phil was able to get back on it.During the years when he wasn’t on the board, he still kept an eye on the goings on, including what Leticia James was up to in New York. With some help, he was able to get back onto the board in 2020. He noticed that the board meetings were much shorter than they used to be and he realized that wasn’t quite right. There was a lot of ‘go along to get along’ happening with the BOD. Reading the petition from James, he saw that the things that were wrong in the 1990’s were four times worse.Phil gets into several things that were going on with the NRA and how it needed to be changed. In 2024, he got together with Rocky Marshall, Dennis Fusaro, and Jeff Knox and started a small reform team. They all got elected onto the board to start making changes. This year, there were many more reformers on the ballot, and many were elected. However, he does get into how it was a mess and how much of a mess it was.Personally, I did vote for the 28 reformers. I have had the new EVP, Doug Hamlin, on the show (episode 213). I do believe we need to keep the NRA and make the changes necessary to maintain our Second Amendment rights. The NRA has been around for over 150 years and want to see it for another 150 years. WIth Phil and the new reformers, I think we’re in good hands and onto a better and stronger NRA.Favorite quotes: “What have they not taught me about? And it was the Second Amendment.” “The whole legislative process is to keep things from becoming law.” “It’s easier to kill legislation than it is to get it passed.” “It was a cultural problem inside the organization.”National Rifle Association https://home.nra.org/NRA ILA https://www.nraila.org/YouTube https://www.youtube.com/user/NRAVideosX https://x.com/NRAInstagram https://www.instagram.com/NRA/NRA Publications YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@NRApubsSecond Amendment Foundation https://secure.anedot.com/saf/donate?sc=RidingShotgunCitizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms https://www.ccrkba.org/ Please support the Riding Shotgun With Charlie sponsors and supporters.Self Defense Radio Network http://sdrn.us/Buy a Powertac Flashlight, use RSWC as the discount code and save 15% www.powertac.com/RSWC

While we see many very blue states passing laws which prohibit local law enforcement's participation in immigration and deporation efforts, we have to wonder, would they show the same reluctance with assisting ATF if they were running through their state confiscating guns? Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses that very issue and the laws that many states have already passed that will protect its citizens from a runaway Federal government. And all of this stems from well established Supreme Court case law. So learn more today and arm yourself with education.Read Printz v.
