Colt’s Manufacturing, the company that has made the iconic gun dubbed “The Peacemaker” for more than a century, could pull up its Connecticut stakes after coming under fire in the national debate over the Second Amendment.

President and CEO Dennis Veilleux said the pro-gun control climate that has taken hold in the wake of the Sandy Hook school massacre and other firearm attacks has left him feeling unwelcome in the state his company has called home for 175 years. Proposed laws being debated by the Legislature and pushed by Gov. Dannel Malloy include a new gun offender registry, an expanded assault weapons ban, ammunition restrictions and a ban on bulk purchases of handguns. Veilleux said those measures have put Colt and its nearly 700 employees in the crosshairs.   Continue reading “Colt to bolt? Gun maker’s boss says company feels unwelcome in Connecticut”

Tea Addiction Tooth LossHuffington Post

Decades of hard tea drinking led to tooth loss and other bone problems for a 47-year-old Michigan woman, reports the New England Journal of Medicine. After treating the patient for severe pain in her back, arms, legs and hips, her doctor Sudhaker Rao discovered that consuming “astronomical amounts” of highly concentrated tea for nearly 20 years had caused her fluoride levels to spike to more than four times the normal amount.   Continue reading “Tea Addiction Results In Woman’s Tooth Loss”

We all know the cliché: ‘Don’t mess with Texas.’Well, a new piece of legislation is being proposed to send that message to Washington, when it comes to protecting Texas’ gold.

A lawmaker has proposed a bill to create a Texas Bullion Depository, which would allow the state and its citizens to store gold bullion in its own facility in Texas, with the protection of the state.   Continue reading “Texas May Start Hoarding Gold…Secession Next?”

Biden gun task forceAmerican Vision News – by Joel McDurmon

In a recent interview with NPR on gun control proposals, vice president Joe Biden assiduously avoided the real reason for the Second Amendment: it’s not about hunting Joe! It’s about defense against a tyrannical government.

But in his carefully rehearsed remarks, Mr. Biden let slip the real reason he and other statist politicians want to continue to infringe on our right to bear arms, including an admittedly unpopular ban on “assault weapons” and high-capacity magazines: government entities don’t want to be “outgunned”!   Continue reading “Biden: government “tired of being outgunned””

As the U.S. Congress debates gun control legislation, two of the countries’ leading advocates on the issue–Vice President Joe Biden and Mayor Michael Bloomberg–held a City Hall press conference today to pressure federal lawmakers to have enough “courage” to vote in favor of the bill when it hits the floor. Standing behind victims’ family members from last year’s massacre at a Newtown, Connecticut elementary school, Mr. Biden and Mr. Bloomberg argued the measures being proposed are neither controversial or unconstitutional.   Continue reading “Biden and Bloomberg Team Up to Again Pressure Congress on Guns”

Reuters:

New York state lawmakers are considering amendments to the state’s sweeping new gun control law, including repealing a ban on magazines that hold more than seven bullets, Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Wednesday, describing most of the changes as technical.

The law, passed January 15, a month after the massacre at a Connecticut elementary school, also requires gun owners to register most guns with the state and requires universal background checks.   Continue reading “The Most Stupid Gun Law Ever Made”

Just received a call from a highly agitated bank manager who stated that within 60 days, banks will be greatly reducing their hours, days of operation, amount of withdrawals and a requirement to fill out “paperwork” if the amount is questioned by bank officials. Unless the form is completed, money will not be disbursed.   Continue reading “Bank Manager Verifies Cash Withdrawal Limits and Reduced Hours coming to US Banks within 60 Days”

So, Diane Frankenstein’s assault weapons ban has been squashed and the lullaby has begun, but I would not recommend falling asleep at this particular moment as the removal of the legislation from the main body of the gun confiscation legislation is not but a ploy.  It has been my opinion that the proposed assault weapons and clip ban have been nothing more than a diversion put forth in the expectation that we 2nd Article supporters will consider it a victory when universal background checks become a reality.

We can make no mistake as to the communists’ intent as they have made that intent clear many times over.  They want the American people disarmed.  But how do they achieve this insurmountable goal?  We must consider the larger picture, which is complete disarmament of the American people via UN dictate.   Continue reading “Universal Background Checks and UN Small Arms Treaty, A Two Prong Sneak Attack”

A new WorldNetDaily/Wenzel poll finds that only 20 percent of American gun owners would surrender their firearms if ordered to by the government (although an additional 16 percent claimed to be “unsure”–probably not the sort who would be determined enough to face the consequences of defying such an order). From WorldNetDaily:   Continue reading “Gun ban advocates must decide if they’re willing–and able–to kill 50,000,000+”

This article may seem to be about abstract theory, but it isn’t. It’s about how populations are viewed by psychological-operations specialists.

More importantly, it’s about how people are led to accept substitutes for their own highest ideals. The substitutes look like the real thing, but they’re actually very well drawn cartoons.   Continue reading “The disaster of manufacturing consent in the Matrix”

As WND reported, milk industry heavyweights, including the International Dairy Foods Association and the National Milk Producers Federation, have asked the federal government for permission to include artificial sweeteners such as aspartame in milk products for schools, without alerting parents and children.   Continue reading “Americans Fight Back Against ‘Poisoned’ Milk”
