The 870 I agree with. As far as the AR15, it depends on what type of survival we’re talking about. Good for game, but not much use against cops or blue hats with body armor. For that it’s definitely a .308.

Owning a gun, or a variety of guns, is not only your right, but is a core element to ultimate personal protection and a practical tool for rural survival living. Gun ownership compliments the lifestyle of those who live a life of self sufficiency… Although there are some who are wary of guns, and there are parts of the world where gun ownership is outright banned, owning a gun is really just like owning a tool to compliment all the other tools that you have in your ‘kit’.    Continue reading “Four Survival Guns”

The USDA has never denied a single application from Monsanto for new genetically engineered crops.

Monsanto’s growth hormones for cows have been approved by Michael Taylor, a former Monsanto lobbyist turned USDA administrator and FDA deputy commissioner. This was after Margaret Miller, a former Monsanto employee, oversaw a report on the hormones’ safety and then took a job at the FDA where she approved her own report.    Continue reading “Investigate Monsanto’s Takeover of USDA”

Here’s a new and very bizarre entry for the annals of “the dog ate it” excuses. According to Reuters, Montana man Wayne Klinkel, who last year pieced together the remnants of five $100 bills eaten by his one-eyed golden retriever, Sundance, is sporting a $500 check he says he received this week from the U.S. Department of the Treasury to replace the digested funds. Sundance sniffed the wad of bills out of a car cubby space while waiting for Klinkel and his wife to return from lunch, and the canine made the currency his lunch.   Continue reading “The Dog Ate It: US Treasury Reimburses Man For $500 His Dog Ate”

Some may call it a self imposed exile, but several years ago we separated ourselves from so-called “society”. It’s a 90 minute ride to even get to a town from here, mostly across dirt ranch road, some of it “primitive” (white knuckles). About a year ago, our Ford Bronco died, and we got swindled out of $3000 for a replacement truck that…well, long story, but suffice it to say we haven’t had a vehicle since then. We haven’t left the ranch in about a year. The handful of times we had visitors since then, they have been so kind as to bring us up some small amount of groceries for a “treat” or two, but we gained something very special in that time – perspective.   Continue reading “An Unusual Perspective”

This creature must be laughed out of contention for the office which he seeks.  It’s infuriating to see and hear his lies, without his positions being exposed for what they truly are …COMMUNIST!

Bill de Blasio, who won the Democratic mayoral nomination vowing to tax New York’s richest residents to pay for universal pre-school, called himself a “fiscal conservative” in a speech to business leaders.    Continue reading “De Blasio Says He’s a ‘Fiscal Conservative’ Raising NYC Taxes”

An Objectivist Individualist – by Charles R. Anderson, Ph.D.

The media, even Fox News, is generally calling the 13% reduction in government spending a SHUTDOWN of the GOVERNMENT.  This is surely an exaggeration.  Perhaps in a society whose government-run and funded schools have long exaggerated student achievement with grade inflation, this is to be expected.  A society that has long inflated the ability of government to solve problems and do it much better than individuals can by managing their own lives, is bound to be terrified by a mere 13% reduction in government spending.   Continue reading “13% Spending Reduction Is Called a Shutdown?”

Google is in a pickle when it comes to books lately – Google Books has cost the company as much as $40 million per year and it’s the object of a lawsuit that may see Google paying out up to $3 billion in damages, according to the AP.

Google’s plan to digitize every book on the planet — 20 million so far — has obviously required making digital copies, and this is exactly where the problem lies. Google didn’t get permission from the Authors Guild before embarking on its quest to clone the book world, so now the company’s all tied in up court in court as the defendant in a copyright infringement case.   Continue reading “Google Is Being Sued For $3 Billion For Scanning 20 Million Books Without Permission”

Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was “closed” due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown.

The Park Service will also have rangers on duty to police the ban. Of access to an ocean. The government will probably use more personnel and spend more resources to attempt to close the ocean, than it would in its normal course of business.    Continue reading “Feds Try to Close the Ocean Because of Shutdown”

WEB Notes: The socialist government of France has passed a bill banning the closure of businesses amidst the economic down turn. The bill was approved by Parliament, and now heads to the Senate. Frances tax rate has gone up tremendously due to their socialist government and is driving away businesses, thus this bill being placed on the table. You can read the entire Google translated article below.   Continue reading “Socialist France Passes Bill Making it Illegal to Close Private Businesses”

Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Trade Minister Ed Fast are headed to Malaysia and Indonesia this week, and one of the main issues on their agenda is a trade deal that would cover one-third of the world’s international commerce.

But what the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) will contain is so far a matter of rumour, conjecture and guesswork — nowhere more so than in Canada, where the government has kept a tight lid on news coming out of the talks.   Continue reading “Trans-Pacific Partnership Talks Headed For Finish Line Amid Official Secrecy”
