From hotel rooms, to timeshares, to private homes these bugs are sure to create a big boom for the pest control and mattress industries.  Follow our cartoon slideshow Bad Bedbugs from some of our great cartoonists!

We've heard a lot about the NRA and gun control in the wake of the tragic shooting in Aurora, Colorado. Lots of our cartoonists have already weighed in on the issue, but readers seem polarized by conservative cartoonist Gary McCoy's cartoon about the call for increases gun control laws following the shooting: 

Here's a sampling of some of our readers' comments on Facebook: 

David Wilder MaGoo: Sorry, don't see the correlation. Guns don't fall out of the sky.

Suzanne Chiles: When it's easier to buy 6000 rounds of ammunition than it is to buy a box of Sudafed, I'd say that yes, we probably do need some more laws concerning the ownership and operation of firearms.

Ivy C Maile Boley: you can't make laws that make people less crazy, less mean, less marginalized - - laws are supposed to step in when society has failed to uphold our inherent cooperativeness.

Tim Campbell: Stopping deranged people from killing - (left solution) harder access to guns. Stopping teens from having sex - (right solution) harder access to birth control.

Steven Pennella: Total cheap shot considering Democrats are pro-solar power and the fossils of the GOP are pro fossil fuel.

Michael A. Cooper: Why are ALL the gun laws aimed at the law abiding and NOT the criminals?

Rick Wade: If the existing laws were enforced the situation would improve dramatically.

Bob Jones: Cartoon is a non sequitur. Guns and gun violence, unlike sunshine, are not naturally occurring phenomena. 

Eric Nelson: Here's a thought, let's enforce our laws on the books and close loop holes for gun shows. Tax ammunition like talons out of existence and bring back an assault weapons ban. For those enthusiasts who love assault weapons, I'm sorry. Hell pot is illegal.

With more than 4 million members and a budget of over $200 million dollars per year, the influence of the NRA is heavy in the debate over gun use and ownership.  The recent shooting in Colorado and the many shootings on school campuses continue to force the NRA into the spotlight.  The NRA stands by the 2nd Amendment but some say they also contribute to a society of violence.  Check out our cartoon slideshow as we Take a Look at the NRA.

R.J. Matson

On Friday, Lee Enterprises announced it was laying off  nearly two dozen employees at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 14 of which came from their newsroom. Among those is their staff cartoonist, R.J. Matson.

Matson, whose cartoons I syndicate to newspapers nationally with Cagle Cartoons, moved to St. Louis in 2007 to become the staff cartoonist at the Post-Dispatch, and has survived many cutbacks and layoffs along the way.

“I had a good seven year run. No regrets. I had the honor of working with a lot of great journalists, many of whom were laid off or jumped ship, during my time at the Post-Dispatch,” Matson said.  ”When my number came up, I didn’t take it personally.”

We will continue to syndicate Matson’s great cartoons. He’ll continue to draw four cartoons a week for Roll Call, but he’ll miss drawing cartoons about the local politics of St. Louis and Missouri.

“Desperate times call for desperate measures,” Matson said.  ”But desperate measures won’t bring in new readers and will alienate a lot of loyal readers, many of whom really like to see their community reflected in local editorial cartoons.”

The Colorado shooting massacre has brought the issue of gun control into the spotlight again.  Some are calling for stricter gun laws while others say those laws will not prevent criminals from getting guns and committing crimes. Once again all sides will discuss the ways in which we can fix our society and what to do about the ways that we get guns.  The debate will continue and then start to fade.  That is... until another gun tragedy happens.  Check out our Gun Debate cartoon slideshow.

In an effort to help Penn State University heal and move forward, officials decided to remove the statue of the late football coach Joe Paterno.  Some say that tearing it down will help to eliminate the visual reminder of child abusers and those that cover it up.  There are others that say it can be a reminder to never let it happen again.  Either way, the final decision was to take it down.  In our Paterno's Statue Comes Down cartoon slideshow our cartoonists show us what they think.

Penn State has received the harshest penalty the NCAA has ever handed down.  Penn State will have to endure a four-year ban on bowl games, a $60 million dollar fine and 40 fewer scholarships.  The sanctions were delivered to Penn State for the abuse and cover up of sexual abuse against young boys.  The NCAA stated that this was the most "egregious behavior" seen in NCAA history.  The objective is not to hurt the football players at Penn State but to serve as a reminder of the atrocious conduct of Jerry Sandusky and Joe Paterno.  Penn State will now have to endure the breakdown of their football program and try and decide how to rebuild the reputation of their tarnished name.  Click here to see what our cartoonists think in this cartoon slideshow called Penn State Sanctions.

The Boy Scouts of America policy adamantly states that no openly gay boys can join scouts and no openly gay adults can become troop leaders.  The scouts have faced many political pitfalls and this will no doubt be another one.  While the boy scouts have made their decision the controversy will continue on.  Check out what our cartoonists think in our No Gays in Boy Scouts cartoon slideshow.
