David Smith had long been a competitive shooter, and he wasn’t going to allow a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease to end his hobby.
The 46-year-old, now considered by Guns.com a “powerhouse on the competitive circuit,” and who just scored a spot at the 2019 World Rifle Shoot in Sweden, was first diagnosed with the crippling nervous system disorder eight years ago. Continue reading “Professional shooter uses ‘gun therapy’ to lessen symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease”
The New York Times covered a study on bullet size and suggested that a move away from bigger bullets could result in a reduction in fatalities.
The title of the column–People Kill People; But the Bullets Seem to Matter–makes clear the underlying theme is to introduce the possible benefits of ammunition controls. Continue reading “New York Times: Next Front for Gun Control Fight Is Smaller Bullets”

Sometimes when shiftless bureaucracy prevents crucial government work from getting done, citizens will take matters into their own hands.
And one Canadian man who took it upon himself to fill potholes in his Nova Scotia town is receiving the warm support of his neighbors, as well as some material aid such as some bud, some fresh-brewed coffee, and some cash. Continue reading “Canadian Man Fills Potholes and Gets Weed, Coffee, Cash From Grateful Locals”

Paterson, NJ — When FBI agents launched an investigation into crooked drug-dealing Patterson Police Officer Ruben McAusland, they made a startling discovery when they seized his cellphone for evidence. McAusland and his partner, officer Roger Then, filmed themselves attacking a man in the hospital for sheer enjoyment.
“Prior to that video being discovered, we did not know about that assault,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Rahul Agarwal said in federal court in Newark on Wednesday morning. Continue reading “Cops Film Themselves Viciously Beating Suicidal Hospital Patient for Their Own Pleasure”
The United States is projected to add about 1.5 million illegal aliens to the American population by the end of the year, should current rates of Catch and Release, border crossings, and visa overstays pan out.
This year, the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Catch and Release policy — whereby border crossers and illegal aliens are readily released from federal custody into the interior of the U.S. — is on track to release roughly 434,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the country by the end of the year. This projection is based on current estimates that more than 36,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have been released from DHS custody every month since the beginning of the year. Continue reading “U.S. Projected to Add 1.5M Illegal Aliens to Population this Year”
It’s hard to think of a more fundamental right than the right to determine what happens to one’s own body. Forcing someone to undergo medical treatment against their will violates this most basic of rights—the right to be free from physical assault. Yet even somelibertarians have jumped on the mandatory vaccination bandwagon, arguing that one person not taking every possible precaution against contracting a disease constitutes an assault against another. But this line of thinking requires some very tortured logic. Continue reading “Libertarians for Forced Vaccinations?”
The Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on Tuesday about new legislation that would allow citizens to initiate a legal process that would remove firearms from a person they consider “a danger to himself or herself” or to “law enforcement.”
The bill, the “Extreme Risk Protection Order and Violence Prevention Act of 2018,” was introduced by Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) and Jack Reed (D-R.I.). In their ranking of senators in 2012, the NRA and Gun Owners of America, respectively, gave Rubio a B+/A, Nelson an F/F, and Reed an F/F-. Continue reading “Sens. Rubio, Reed, Nelson Introduce Gun Control Bill That Targets People Who Are a ‘Danger’”
The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder
According to Agriculture Secretary Sunny Purdue, there “may be as many as a million calves lost in Nebraska” due to the catastrophic flooding that has hit the state. This is not a rumor, this is not an exaggeration, and this is not based on any sort of speculation. This number comes to us directly from the top agriculture official in the entire country, and it means that the economic toll from the recent floods is far greater than most of us had anticipated. You can watch Purdue make this quote on Fox Business right here, and it is important to remember that this number is just for one state. It is hard to imagine what the final numbers will look like when the livestock losses for all of the states affected by the flooding are tallied up. This is already the worst agricultural disaster in modern American history, and the National Weather Service is telling us that there will be more catastrophic flooding throughout the middle portion of the nation for the next two months.

A few months have passed since President Trump last threatened to close the southern border, but with another caravan of 2,500 Central American and Cuban migrants making its way through southern Mexico – where the group has reportedly received a cooler welcome than previous groups – the president has apparently decided that it’s time to revive those threats.
In a Thursday morning tweet, Trump lashed out at Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras for doing “NOTHING to help stop the flow of illegal migrants”, adding that they are “all talk and no action.” Continue reading “As Another Migrant Caravan Approaches, Trump Revives Threat To Close Southern Border”

Syria’s UN ambassador has suggested the US hand “a couple” of its own states over to Israel instead of flouting international law and selling others’ land for favors with the Israeli lobby, like it did with the Golan Heights.
Syria’s UN Ambassador Bashar Jaafari offered a stark rebuke to the US-backed Israeli claim to the occupied Golan Heights at the UN Security Council meeting on Wednesday. Jaafari said the Trump administration does the bidding of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the UN to curry favor with the powerful Israeli lobby in the US.
