Dozens of federal agents scoured the family property of YouTube celebrity Kyle ‘FPSRussia’ Myers while searching for illegal explosives and possibly weapons, but left empty-handed.

The noise made by popular YouTube channel FPSRussia – famous for destroying man-made mechanisms with the most advanced firearms – has finally been heard in federal quarters. On Wednesday, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) agents accompanied by FBI agents launched an operation at two locations in Georgia, looking for illegal explosives allegedly used by FPSRussia to produce its YouTube clips.   Continue reading “FPSRussia compound raid leaves 40-plus ATF, FBI agents empty-handed”

Law enforcement intelligence-processing fusion centers have long come under attack for spying on Americans. The Arkansas director wanted to clarify the truth: centers only spies on some Americans – those who appear to be a threat to the government.

In trying to clear up the ‘misconceptions’ about the conduct of fusion centers, Arkansas State Fusion Center Director Richard Davis simply confirmed Americans’ fears: the center does in fact spy on Americans – but only on those who are suspected to be ‘anti-government’.   Continue reading “Fusion center director: We don’t spy on Americans, just anti-government Americans”

A thirteen year old girl was suspended from a Boston school this week for bringing a butter knife with her to cut up a pear for lunch, in the latest crackdown on kids taking anything vaguely resembling a weapon to school with them.

As reported by Fox Boston, Morgan LaPlaume, a Wamsutta Middle School student, was suspended for a day over the incident. The girl needed the knife to cut up the fruit because she has braces and cannot eat the fruit whole.   Continue reading “Middle School Girl Suspended Over Butter Knife”

These supremely weird, coiled cloud formations were recently captured by a satellite scoping out the Prince Edward Islands. No, not the one in Canada, the ones in the south Indian Ocean. Are they the product of a fast moving craft? The infamous HAARP program? A government weather machine spinning up? Or something else?   Continue reading “Highly Bizarre “Cloud Coils” Photographed Over Prince Edward Islands”

The Final United Nations (UN) Conference on the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) failed to reach an agreement by consensus yesterday.  And this hardly comes as any surprise.  Going into the Conference, this author estimated the probability of not reaching consensus to be 75%.  The reasons for this were detailed in a pre-conference Executive Brief published on Amazon.com.  Here is a model to help illustrate how things could and have played out:   Continue reading “Arms Trade Treaty Conference Fails to Reach Consensus, Final Draft Goes to UN General Assembly for Vote”

Ammunition is in short supply. The demand has increased dramatically which takes its toll on the market. However, the Department of Homeland Security doesn’t seem to be affected by the demand at all. In fact, it’s got over $37 million of tax payer money to spend on brass and lead for fiscal year 2013 and it’s soliciting again for nearly 90,000 round in various calibers. This is in addition to their own claims of having more than 260 million rounds of ammunition back in November 2012.   Continue reading “DHS Solicits For More Various Caliber Ammunition”

STOP TAXING US – by Richard Rider

I write about and compare California with other states.  While I cover many aspects, most have to do with monetary issues — taxes, regulation, litigation, utility costs, education funding, etc.

But we should also look at a broader index that includes not only the issues I highlight, but also compares the personal freedom factors among states.  For years the Mercatus Center has done exactly that — comparing states on a more fundamental “freedom” level.  They incorporate most of my concerns, while factoring in personal freedoms.   Continue reading “Californians live in the least free state in the nation — except for NY”

Right to privacy? Don’t bet on it.

According to a Washington Times report, the FBI has admitted that it made extensive use for the last five years of a cell phone tracking program that can pinpoint callers’ locations and record their conversations — all without a warrant.

The program, called ‘Stingray’ was revealed at a hearing today in a federal court in Arizona by Justice Department attorneys in the case of U.S. vs. Rigmaiden.The 2008 case involves a man charged with identity theft. His attorneys are seeking to quash evidence obtained by Stingray, using the argument that using Stingray constitutes a search and would require an actual warrant.   Continue reading “Feds Admit Warrantless Cellphone Tracking ‘Very Common’”

It all began innocently enough I suppose; back when we humans first began growing our own food. After harvest farmers would save their seeds for the next growing season; often hand picking the best and most vibrant looking seeds to ensure a bountiful crop.  Eventually a few farmers and naturalists observed naturally occurring plant hybrids and this gave them the idea to experiment with combining different species of plants themselves.  Then in 1900 Gregor Mendel’s genetic theory was used  to manipulate plant species in a process called “Classic Selection“- the cross breeding of plant DNA, to get the desired results.  The following year a fellow named John Francis Queeny founded a little chemical company in Creve Couer, Missouri, and named it Monsanto.   Continue reading “GMO? ~ Oh HELL No!”
