EDEN, Texas (AP) — A man suspected in a West Texas shooting rampage that left one woman dead and five others wounded was a Marine who was wanted for questioning in a slaying in North Carolina, officials said Monday.

Smith, 23, of the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base, N.C., died in a gunfight with an agency trooper and a state game warden, said Tom Vinger, spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety.   Continue reading “Officials: Gunman in Texas rampage was Marine”

When it comes to protecting the public from GMOs, Hungary knows how to get the job done: set fire to the fields growing GM corn!

Although environmentalists might at first argue about the ramifications of burning so much organic matter right out in the open, the deeper truth is that genetic pollution poses a vastly more serious threat to our world, and burning GM corn is the one sure way to destroy the poisonous genetic code contained in plant tissues. In fact, I hope to see the day when the U.S. courts order the destruction of all GM corn fields across America. And I suspect that if the courts won’t rise to the occasion, the People will sooner or later find a way to get it done on their own. Think “Army of the 12 Monkeys” but with a GMO slant.   Continue reading “Hungary torches 500 hectares of GM corn to eradicate GMOs from food supply”

In my “Freedom Camp 7” series I included a logistical auxiliary that made ammunition.  Traditionally resistance fighters need a steady supply of ammo.  The Israeli terrorists who fought against the British in the Holy Land even set up a 9mm ammo plant underneath a laundry, cranking out ammunition on a scale that a handloader (even with a Dillon on each hand) couldn’t hope to compete with.   Continue reading “Annealing brass, a rather good excuse to play with fire.”

Volume and Effectiveness of Enemy Fire – IMT is not always used due to volume and effectiveness of enemy fire.

For anyone who has followed my articles over the past several years you probably already know that I have been highly critical of various figures in the so-called alternative media and patriot movement. Many of the people associated with these groups are paid shills, gatekeepers, useful idiots, scam artists and sometimes just downright bad people.

Important topics that don’t fit the controlled opposition narrative surrounding any number of subjects such as criticism of Abrahamic religions and Zionism are often marginalized or ignored. For years I have maintained that many of these people are part of a controlled opposition front which would eventually be used to start a civil war or at the very least provide a pretext for a militarized crackdown by the government.   Continue reading “Adam Kokesh’s Planned July 4th Open Carry March Appears To Be A Honeypot Of Controlled Opposition”
