USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- Their black boxes of ammo had been setting on the shelves in some big box sporting goods outlets for a couple of years, but I really did not pay that much attention. Then I came across information that Ammo Inc. was building a new ammunition manufacturing plant in Wisconsin. This did get my attention. Contact was made with Jim Mann, the general manager of what I thought was the Wisconsin branch of Ammo Inc.  Continue reading “Ammo Inc. More Ammunition Production, Just In Time”

Time and again, those in positions of authority, abuse that authority by intimidating and even arresting those with whom they politically disagree. We have seen this scenario play out like a broken record against individuals expressing their legal and peaceful views on social media only to be visited by police and even kidnapped and caged. 

Amyiah Cohoon learned about this authoritarian practice last year when she was a sophomore in high school. Last year, she took a trip to Florida for spring break with the Westfield Area High School band. Their trip was cut short, however, as it took place in the middle of March 2020 — when governments began implementing lockdowns over COVID-19.

Scientists have developed a microneedle ‘vaccine patch’ that promises a much greater immune response than traditional vaccine shots – and all without the potential pain and anxiety associated with conventional needles.

While microneedle patches have been in development for years, they have proved difficult to successfully manufacture at scale. What’s more, it can be challenging to adapt the same patch for different types of vaccine. Continue reading “This Tiny ‘Vaccine Patch’ Could Prompt Stronger Immune Response Than a Needle”

Anchorage, AK — Those paying attention currently, know the utter state of chaos that is the United States government, the economy, and the uncertainty of things to come. To persevere from this chaos, the US needs massive changes and nothing short of a miracle. So, it seems like it would make sense for government agencies to focus on navigating out of this mess instead of squandering resources on irrelevant nonsense. However, according to a recent case out of Anchorage, the state couldn’t care less about avoiding the impending catastrophe. They’d rather focus your tax dollars and resources on three men illegally standing in a river. Seriously. They even bragged about it on Twitter.

A flight from Boston to San Juan landed Wednesday evening with one passenger restrained to a chair with multiple seatbelt extenders after an insane mid-air altercation, according to an FBI affidavit obtained by The Daily Beast. The passenger, a man named Khalil El Dahr, had attempted to make a phone call near the end of the flight and “became angry about the call’s unsuccess.” Roughly 45 minutes before landing, he pulled himself out of his seat and rushed towards the cockpit, yelling in Spanish and Arabic that someone should shoot and kill him.

Congress is once again trying to fix a very specific problem with a broad solution. We support the SHOP SAFE Act’s underlying goal of protecting consumers from unsafe and defective counterfeit products.  The problem is that SHOP SAFE tackles the issue in a way that would make it incredibly difficult for small businesses and individuals to sell anything online. It will do little to stop sophisticated counterfeiters and will ultimately do consumers more harm than good, by obstructing competition and hindering consumers’ ability to resell their own used goods.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — One of the founders of the Taliban and the chief enforcer of its harsh interpretation of Islamic law when they last ruled Afghanistan said the hard-line movement will once again carry out executions and amputations of hands, though perhaps not in public.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Mullah Nooruddin Turabi dismissed outrage over the Taliban’s executions in the past, which sometimes took place in front of crowds at a stadium, and he warned the world against interfering with Afghanistan’s new rulers.
