For all the gun myths I’ve exposed so far, none have addressed criminality, have you noticed?

There isn’t much attention to actual threats. They have all addressed baseless fears on the part of the anti-gunners making the proposals.

The myths spread from politicians who work that crowd, to frenzied grassroots people living in imagined terror, to tagalongs and the “news” media.   Continue reading “The Home-Arsenal Myth (The Most Dangerous Myth of All)”

It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.

Yesterday I got a Snapple cap with an interesting fact on it. It said that the Mayans had no concept of money, even though they were at the time the most prosperous and powerful nation in South America. Many of you will instantly call bullshit on that, as I did, because we have all seen the ornate Mayan artifacts made out of gold. You don’t make statues, trinkets and jewelry out of gold, as opposed to lead or copper, unless it holds an uncommon value for you. The gold for those statues was traded for other things of value, or for labor at one point, and that means it was money.
