Enforce our Bill of Rights
This post is going to be deliberately simplistic and lacking in ballistic charts. The purpose is just to advocate to you the benefits, in my opinion, of the 100 meter (or yard if you insist, as it does not make a world of difference in practical terms) zero for a 5.56 AR style platform.
I am a great fan of the 100 meter zero. My reasons, in simple terms, are this: Continue reading “The 100 meter zero”

The following was written by California State Assemblymember Tim Donnelly, sponsor of Assembly Bill 351, legislation that addresses the “indefinite detention” powers of the 2012 NDAA and other federal “laws.”
I find it absolutely amazing how far our country has digressed politically since its founding in 1787. Take, for example, the latest Obama Administration scandals: Soylndra, Benghazi, Fast & Furious, the IRS profiling various Conservative political organizations, domestic wiretapping probes on AP journalists, and the PRISM program run by the NSA.

According to this HUGE breaking story, Janet Napolitano is going to resign today. This comes straight from a Tweet from Reuter’s Insider. Does this have anything to do with the DHS spying upon peaceful protesters? Is is because the DHS was arming up for war against Americans? Should this be seen as a GREAT sign or does this portend forthcoming disaster? Continue reading “Janet Napolitano To Resign Today! Reuters Insider Tweet”
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Supreme Court is scheduled to rule in the case of a man convicted of shooting and injuring two Milwaukee police officers in 2009.
Julius Burton was sentenced to 80 years in prison after pleading guilty to charges related to the shooting of the officers. Burton wanted to withdraw his pleas, arguing that his former attorney and the lower court didn’t properly advise him, but a state appeals court denied his request. Continue reading “Wis. Supreme Court to rule in police shooting”
Now we know why Microsoft has those monster updates at least once a month; the updates are to the spyware installed on the Microsoft operating systems.
Microsoft worked hand-in-hand with the United States government in order to allow federal investigators to bypass encryption mechanisms meant to protect the privacy of millions of users, Edward Snowden told The Guardian.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry said Thursday that he will visit Israel in October, a move that signals to the political world that he is seriously considering making another presidential run in 2016.
“We will be going to Israel to bring together Arabs, Christian and Jews in an educational forum,” Mr. Perry told The Washington Times in an interview just three days after he announced he would not seek an unprecedented fourth term as Texas governor.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — More than a dozen convicted killers are released from prison on a technicality, and dozens more could follow.
Monique Griego explains the Court of Appeals ruling at the center of this controversy.
All of these men were convicted before 1980. And since then, the court has changed the way juries are allowed to decide cases. Continue reading “Over A Dozen Convicted Murderers Released From Prison On Technicality”

WEB Notes: This is an attempt to desensitize our children so they will be more accepting of intrusion into their lives. This is another reason to take your children out of public schools and home school or private school them. This is yet another reason, “California’s Transgender Bill Heads to Governor’s Desk Allowing Boys to Shower with Girls in Public Schools.”

Gas prices are heading up again.
Rising crude oil prices and a fall in U.S. supplies are driving wholesale gas prices up sharply. That has yet to be fully reflected at the retail level.
Prices at the pump — up 4 cents the past week to a national average of $3.52 a gallon — could climb another 15 cents or higher over the next two weeks. A year ago, the national average was $3.38. Continue reading “Gas prices expected to surge again soon”

Sick of ads bombarding you when you go to Google, Bing or other search engines? Well, there is a search engine that helps you forget about that noise and its hit rate has soared since it was revealed that the NSA has been snooping on everyone’s communications.
The search engine is a little known site called DuckDuckGo.com and its traffic has doubled recently and for good reason, no ads and no user data sharing. Continue reading “New Search Engine Allows You To Use Internet Without Government Tracking”
In preparation for the possibility of an acquittal of George Zimmerman, The New Black Panther Party has reportedly begun a mobilization campaign to target white communities.
According to a recent post on Sodahead, leader Samir Shabazz and the New Black Panthers are preparing to take the fight directly to those guilty of murdering Trayvon Martin – white people living in suburbs all over America. Continue reading “Panthers: “This Time We’re Going Out To Whitey’s Suburbs and Burning Down HIS Community””
MSNBC bills itself as the “place for politics,” but if you’ve been watching the network lately, it’s been all of the Zimmerman trial, all the time. Political director Chuck Todd grew so frustrated with the coverage preempting his Daily Rundown show that he barely concealed his exasperation on-air, as evidenced by a video from the Washington Free Beacon that quickly went viral. Most of the network’s flagship news shows, from Hardball with Chris Matthews to Politics Nation with Al Sharpton, seem to spend more time talking about Trayvon Martin than President Obama.

In my opinion. I do not see President Obama finishing his second term. I do think the election fraud committed did not reflect the real will of the people. The new scandals that are revealed daily in the alternative media and a reluctant mainstream press shows the dam is bout to break.
