Is anyone else sick and tired of the government parading around this shill and her husband?  She wants sympathy as if she were as immobilized as Stephen Hawking, yet she’s more than able to fire guns at a firing range?  What gives her the right to fly all over the country with number of guns but not the rest of us?  This piece of fiction from the Twilight Zone really makes my blood boil!   Continue reading “On tour, Giffords’ actions speak on gun control”

    I’m loathe to do so, but I regrettably believe it has become necessary to suggest a new holiday. It wouldn’t be something marked by fireworks and celebration, but instead it would be a day of mourning known as “Total Dependence Day.”

It would begin at the stroke of midnight on the fourth day of July, so immediately after celebrating “Independence Day”, you would have to stop the party, and reflect on the reality that our hard-won freedom has been lost due to our total dependence on government and gadgetry, and that many of us would be reduced to tears if not supplied with the endless cheap entertainment that now dominates our culture and our free time.    Continue reading “Total Dependence Day”

A $214-million test launch of the only US defense against long-range ballistic missile attacks failed to hit its target over the Pacific Ocean, according to the Missile Defense Agency. There have been no successful interceptor tests since 2008.

In Friday’s test, a ground-based interceptor missile was launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California and was expected to hit its target – a missile launched 4,000 miles away from the Kwajalein Atoll.   Continue reading “US ABM test failure mars $1bn N. Korea defense plan”

Gas chambers could be brought back to life in the state of Missouri, where the attorney general has indicated replacing lethal-injection with the long-forgotten and controversial means of execution before the former’s drug supply runs out.

“As each supply expires, the department’s ability to carry out lawfully imposed capital sentences diminishes,”  Attorney General Chris Koster said in a motion filed with the court. “Unless the court changes its current course, the legislature will soon be compelled to fund statutorily-authorized alternative methods of execution to carry out lawful judgments.”   Continue reading “‘Machinery of Death’: Gas chamber may be revived in Missouri”

Bolivian President Evo Morales said on Saturday he would grant asylum, if requested, to former U.S. intelligence agency contractor Edward Snowden. Morales’ offer came after two other leftist Latin American leaders – Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro and Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega – also said they would help the U.S. fugitive, who is believed to be holed up in the transit area of a Moscow international airport.   Continue reading “Bolivia Offers Edward Snowden Asylum”

HARTFORD, Connecticut — In another sign that natural gas is outpacing costlier heating oil, a Texas energy company is proposing to install new pipelines, replace others and build transmission stations in the heavily populated, 200-mile New York-to-Boston corridor.

The preliminary plan proposed by Algonquin Gas Transmissions, a unit of Spectra Energy in Houston, would build and replace about 44 miles of pipeline in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island, install a new pipeline to span the Hudson River in New York and build compressor stations to boost gas flow.   Continue reading “Power plants balk at upgraded natural gas pipeline eyed for suburban New York City to Boston”

The northern leg of TransCanada’s Keystone XL pipeline may be mired in controversy, but the southern portion of the project is almost complete, company officials said Friday.

Dubbed the Gulf Coast Pipeline, that southern leg is on track to begin carrying up to 700,000 barrels of oil per day from Cushing, Okla., to Nederland by the end of the year. Eventually, TransCanada expects to be able to ramp up capacity to 830,000 barrels per day.   Continue reading “TransCanada pipeline to Nederland to move 700K barrels of oil this year”

A decorated Air Force veteran pleaded not guilty this morning to a charge of “trespassing with a weapon capable of producing bodily harm,” after being arrested by police in Vancouver, Washington, for legally open carrying an AR-15 rifle.

Last Saturday, Mack Worley, eager to exercise his second amendment, open carried his rifle while grabbing a soda and viewing a fireworks stand before attempting to walk back to his car.   Continue reading “Veteran Arrested And Charged For Legally Open Carrying AR-15”

With “gun violence” continuing to plummet (while gun sales continue to soar), the gun prohibitionists are apparently running low on “gun violence” to exploit, and are thus reduced to blaming their favorite bogeyman, the NRA, for violence committed (or at least attempted) without guns. St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner noted in April that some were blaming the NRA for the Boston bombing. Politico quoted MSNBC’s resident socialist (oops–that doesn’t narrow things down much, does it?) Lawrence O’Donnell, claiming that without the NRA’s influence, the black powder used in the bombs would have had chemical “taggants” to help trace the bomb-making materials:   Continue reading “Running low on ‘gun violence,’ gun-haters now blame NRA for attempted poisonings”

Illinois –(Ammoland.com)- On behalf of myself along with the officers and directors of the Illinois State Rifle Association, I would like to wish each of you and your families a happy Independence Day.

With all that’s been going on both at home and abroad lately, it’s easy to wonder at times whether July 4th remains as a celebration of our independence or whether the day now serves as a memorial to the independence we once had.   Continue reading “Remembering a Happy Fourth & the State of Concealed Carry Legislation in Illinois”

The release of the June Jobs’ Report Friday was something of a relief for the markets. The Labor Department reported that the economy gained 195,000 jobs in June, which beat economists’ expectations. The Department also reported that the economy gained 70,000 more jobs in April and May than it originally estimated. The report, however, also provides clear evidence that the the nation is splitting into two; only 47% of Americans have a full-time job and those who don’t are finding it increasingly out of reach.    Continue reading “Only 47% of Adults have Full-Time Job”

Fast and Furious is the Scandal that wont go away. Even though Attorney General Eric Holder refuses to release the documents which may prove that he lied about the scandal, we do learn a little more about this scandal every day.  The latest revelation is that one of those guns the ATF allowed to be sold to the Mexican Drug Cartels was used to kill a Mexican Police Chef.    Continue reading “Mexican Police Chief Killed with Fast and Furious Gun”

If there is one thing you need to remember at all times in the Electronic Age, it is that privacy no longer exists. Every electronic device, every electronic communication, every electronic anything betrays your sense of privacy in every imaginable way, and that is also true of a seemingly innocuous item – the photo.

If taken with a smartphone – as many photos these days certainly are – then the government, as well as ordinary folk (including those who mean you harm) can use metadata embedded in that photo you just tweeted or posted on Facebook to find out your exact coordinates. That includes where you live, if that’s where you sent or posted the photo from, according to a new investigative report by McClatchy Newspapers:   Continue reading “Every picture you take is secretly encoded with your GPS location”
