Chronic disease is extremely common in aging Americans. About three in four older Americans suffer from coronary heart disease, diabetes, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), dementia, hypertension, arterial blockages, or some other chronic condition. Many are battling multiple conditions and it’s quite possible treatments are interfering with each other.   Continue reading “Are The Drugs You’re Prescribed Killing You?”

jail marijuana 263x164 Some Marijuana Convictions may Be Reversed in ColoradoNatural Society – by Elizabeth Renter

In an earlier NaturalSociety post I reported on a viral article that ‘comically’ reported that Colorado pot prisoners would be released due to marijuana legalization. Though that viral article was fake, some marijuana convictions may actually be reversed in Colorado. While it’s highly unlikely that the state will release all marijuana offenders or reverse all past convictions, some may have their convictions thrown out after a ruling from a state appellate court  last week.   Continue reading “Some Marijuana Convictions may Be Reversed in Colorado”

As part of its plan to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, the Obama administration is targeting the dairy industry to reduce methane emissions in their operations.

This comes despite falling methane emission levels across the economy since 1990.   Continue reading “White House looks to regulate cow flatulence as part of climate agenda”

Well, I’m surprised, are you? I find this extremely interesting that the threat level is so high!

Five California harbors – including three here in the Southland – are preparing for future tsunamis under a new state project that arms them with maps that identify potential problem areas.

KNX 1070′s Jan Stevens reports officials will use the maps to take into account tsunamis of different strengths and sources, allowing harbor managers to draw up emergency plans to get vessels to safety.   Continue reading “Southern California Harbors To Prep For Potential Tsunami Threat”

Anyone who’s spent time in extreme weather with their guns knows that bad effects cold temperatures and rain can have on your rifle.

Water can damage your guns, causing corrosion, rust, and other negative effects on your weapons.

Even if you buy a rifle that is made for “all weather”, the effects of extreme weather are still hard to avoid.   Continue reading “3 Easy Tips To Weatherproof Your Guns”

Many long time readers will remember Ruger Mini-30 featured in the Testing the Cooper Scout Rifle Concept article. The results from the Mini-30 were more than impressive during realistic testing.

Based on my research, I had found that Jeff Cooper hailed the 30-30 as an excellent all-around scout round which had proven itself through history. The 30-30 is by today’s standards considered a medium weight rifle round, with actually about the same 800 Ft/lbs of energy at 200 yards as a standard Russian 7.62×39 AK round. (Technically the AK round is a bit more powerful). Even at 200-yards, the 30-30 and 7.62×39 are still a very deadly round for whitetail and hog hunting. On the other side of the equation, the 7.62×39 rifle round has proven to be a, extremely deadly defensive round in every country around the world.   Continue reading “Ruger Mini-30 Rifle”

During a press conference on Wednesday, one that was supposed to be immigration reform, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) found himself defending the Obama administration’s extension of the Obamacare enrollment deadline.

Reid, whose behavior in recent weeks is odd even for him, told reporters that reason the administration extended the enrollment deadline past March 31 is because Americans don’t know how to use the Internet:   Continue reading “Reid to Americans: You’re too stupid to know how to use the Internet”

Activist Post – by Joe Wright

Many of us know retired police officers who remember a world where it was considered a failure to draw a weapon unless under direct attack. Even if such an action was required, the result was nightmare inducing. Today’s police seem to have lost such empathy. As a consequence, police are rarely a welcome sight these days; they are being equipped and trained as if they are an occupying force (even in small towns), replete with body armor, tactical gear, and vehicles coming straight from the US military at bargain prices.   Continue reading “The Militarized U.S. Police, by the Numbers”

The Lonely Conservative

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has been caught paying over $30,000 for jewelry from his granddaughter’s company out of campaign funds. He says the purchases were gifts for supporters, but as Jon Ralston pointed out, “The FEC wants to know more about the gifts purchased with campaign funds. The rules only allow officials to give gifts of nominal value. It would take quite a number of nominal gifts to add up to $17,000. Either way, the optics here are just horrific.” The average price for items from his granddaughter’s company is $70, which seems to be a little bit more than “nominal.”   Continue reading “Harry Reid Doesn’t Like Reporters Poking Into His Family Affairs”

A Malaysian team have told relatives of Chinese passengers on board the missing Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370 that there was sealed evidence that cannot be made public, as they came under fire from the angry relatives at a briefing on Wednesday.

The sealed evidence included air traffic control radio transcript, radar data and airport security recordings.   Continue reading “Malaysia says there’s sealed evidence on MH370 that cannot be made public”

Comparison of net petroleum and other liquids imports for China and United StatesThe Daily Fusion

In September 2013, China’s net imports of petroleum and other liquids exceeded those of the United States on a monthly basis, making it the largest net importer of crude oil and other liquids in the world.

The rise in China’s net imports of petroleum and other liquids is driven by steady economic growth, with rapidly rising Chinese petroleum demand outpacing production growth.   Continue reading “China Becomes World’s Largest Importer of Petroleum”

I was just reminded that I should have informed readers of the recent blockbuster news that JPMorgan has multi-billion dollar life insurance policies on employees betting on their early deaths, to the tune of 10.4 billion dollars.  (Thanks S)

The JPMorgan linked deaths are piling up as yet another death is added to the tally, bringing theofficial number to 13, yet when lower level banksters are added in, that number tops twenty, and yet official causes of death are either unknown, ruled accidental or “suicides,” despite previous warnings, by “V” The Guerrilla Economist via Steve Quayle,  of an actual hit list with over three dozen names on it was revealed after the fourth mysterious banker death.   Continue reading “Another One Bites The Dust! 13th Official Banker Death Reported, JPMorgan Attorney”

That any schoolkid could predict eliminating feedback and consequences will lead to a series of disastrously poor choices by speculators and imprudent borrowers doesn’t register with the Keynesian Cargo Cult.

The Keynesian Cargo Cult’s ability to print and squander money is insignificant next to the power of Diminishing Returns. By now we all know two things about the Keynesian Cargo Cult’s religion:   Continue reading “Dear Keynesians: Your Sad Devotion to Your Failed Religion Hasn’t Conjured Up a Recovery–Here’s Why”

Christian groups are celebrating with the news that the Federal Bureau of Investigation appears to have scrubbed the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) from its hate crimes webpage, where the controversial group was listed as a resource and referred to as a partner in public outreach.

A letter to the U.S. Department of Justice, drafted by Lieutenant General (Ret.) William G. Boykin, Executive Vice President of the Family Research Council (FRC), calls such an association “completely unacceptable.”   Continue reading “FBI Dumps Southern Poverty Law Center as Hate Crimes Resource”

A court ruling had already determined that the 7 round magazine limit imposed by New York’s SAFE Act was unconstitutional. However, the ruling will likely face court challenges in other courts before it’s all said and done.

In the meantime, apparently the New York State Police have joined other law enforcement agencies in instructing their officers not to enforce the law as it currently stands.   Continue reading “New York State Police Instructed Not to Enforce SAFE Act Mag Limit”

Venitism – by Sheldon Richman

If you take politicians and the mainstream media seriously, you believe that Iran wants a nuclear weapon and has relentlessly engaged in covert efforts to build one. Even if you are aware that Iran signed the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and is subject to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspections, you may believe that those who run the Islamic Republic have cleverly found ways to construct a nuclear-weapons industry almost undetected. Therefore, you may conclude, Democratic and Republican administrations have been justified in pressuring Iran to come clean and give up its “nuclear program.”   Continue reading “Debunking the Official Narrative about the Alleged Iranian Threat”

Stop the Drug War – by Philip Smith

More jail guards gone wild! Smuggling dope, smuggling meth, cooking marijuana butter. Plus, a Customs officer winks at semis full of weed blowing through his lane, a crooked Chicagoland cop agrees to rat out his buddies, and more. Let’s get to it:

In Andalusia, Alabama, an Andalusia police sergeant was arrested last Wednesday on somewhat murky drug and prostitution charges. Sgt. Jason Curry is charged with distribution of controlled substances, possession of controlled substances, and promotion of prostitution. Curry’s father also faces drug distribution charges. Authorities are being tight-lipped, so details are limited, but Curry has bailed out of jail on $165,000 bond. He’s been relieved of his duties, but not fired yet.   Continue reading “This Week’s Corrupt Cops Stories”

I’ve just learned that Washington, D.C.’s petition for a rehearing of the Parker case in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit was denied today. This is good news.

Circuit overturned the decades-long ban on gun ownership in the nation’s capitol on Second Amendment grounds.   Continue reading “Harvard Study: Gun Control Is Counterproductive”
