Think you got it bad? So did this group of American’s who believed “Uncle Joe” and and migrated to Soviet Russia to find a “better life”. What they found was a rude surprise and how good they really had it in America even at the height of the Great Depression.

The Republican website has a nice review of Obama’s statements concerning firearm ownership. At the same time ABC is reporting the Obama camp distancing itself from Obama’s own statements as “inartful” which isn’t even a word but gets the point across that they’ve been unexpectedly caught with their drawers down.
“That statement was obviously […]

I love reading Ted Nugent’s writing and his take on the DC Gun Ban ruling is a satisfying read as I would expect.
On the polar opposite side of the political spectrum on everything else, my favorite Progressive Sam Smith weighs in with positive comments on the Courting getting something right. Sam even includes a […]

Despite my recent bout of pessimism regarding the case the SCOTUS blog has the ruling reflecting well on the rights of We the People. Though superficially it would appear they’ve worked very carefully to maintain the status-quo and not shake the current legal standing of any anti-gun law short of an outright ban such as […]

Here in Indiana our license to carry a firearm is just that simple. The word “conceal” is no where used. It is the same in a lot of states and there is a movement afoot to have the public recognize more than LEO’s are carrying weapons about their daily business. I understand the purpose of […]

Be ready June 12th for the first annual Global Warming Skeptics ‘Carbon Belch Day’ (the comments after the article are worth your attention as well). Maybe I’ll mow the grass needlessly since that open exhaust 14hp Briggs & Stratton puts out more carbon than driving to work for a couple of weeks.

I was readingRush’s comments on “farming out” and it occurred to me that while the Democrats bash the Republicans for outsourcing government jobs through “privatizing” the Democrats are guilty of outsourcing government authority and accountability to the globalists and United Nations.
Now some of you may not see that as a bad thing, but a […]

I’m don’t typically buy Buck knives but reading what they’re doing for returning troops I think it is time I take another look at their offerings. And kudos to the Navy for getting themselves squared away on the matter.

Democrats in Philadelphia still buy the false argument that guns cause crime and want Obama and Hillary to come out in strong support of more anti-gun laws. At the same time they admit it is political suicide for any politician. This is one place McCain has been fairly up and up whereas the Democrat […]

Want further evidence that our budding “surveillance society” is not proof against criminals? How about the 200 surveillance cameras that failed to stop a rape suspect…
Surveillance has its place and its uses but it is not a substitute for a .38 in your pocket.

Citi Merchant services has frozen transactions of the popular accessories and firearms dealer CDNN due to their selling firearms in “non-face-to-face” transactions. It would seem to me Citi is run by idiots when you consider how long CDNN has been a mail order company. Add to it that they apparently have no understanding of […]

If this surprises you then you lead a horribly sheltered, unimaginative and unobservant life. So don’t bother reading it, it’ll only make you certain it’s just another fantasy conspiracy because to believe it would mean pulling your head out and doing something. So go back to your big screen and forget you’ve read this post. […]

They were warned before even putting the proposition on the ballot that it was illegal but they didn’t listen and now the citizens of San Francisco are paying for the legal fees to defend, and loose, a lawsuit. And the judge ruled municipalities can’t ban people from owning handguns. The law also banned the […]

New York has such a problem with Muzzle Loaders they’re proposing requiring owners acquire an ‘Antique Firearms’ permit. That’s right, you would need a permit in New York to own the antiques that gave the New York legislature the ability to take draconian actions against its citizens instead letting the British do it. Kind of […]

Every now and then one must step back and say we told you so.

Colorado seems to be falling into rapid marxist/fascist disrepair quickly when a SWAT team invades home to take 11-year-old at gunpoint. Why a SWAT team?
The sheriff said the decision to use SWAT team force was justified because the father was a “self-proclaimed constitutionalist” and had made threats and “comments” over the years.
Being a self-proclaimed constitutionalist […]

For many years there existed a website at the address of Packing.org which contained a database of state firearms laws on concealed handgun carry, reciprocation, etc.. It has only just come to my attention that this primary source of data disappeared last fall.
The Internet and firearms enthusiasts being what they are no […]

Apparently your Second Amendment rights end at the gates of the “magic kingdom”. Not like I would be caught dead in Flori-DUH anyway but this isn’t helping their case nor Disney’s.

The UN is welcoming everyone to the Climate meeting in Bali. Unless you’re a skeptic (journalist) at which point you will be denied entrance.
I guess this is what they mean when they say the ‘debate is over’, eh?

We all know that the surging hurricane activity is because of global warming, right? That because of “Man” hurricanes such as Katrina will become more frequent and stronger. That’s why we’ve had such horrific damage caused to the United States this year from these catastrophic hurricanes… er… oh.. guess not!
Does that prove anything other […]

I think it is a smart way to protest that a licensed individual can carry a firearm into Walmart or down main street but are not allowed to do so while on college campus grounds. In light of Virginia Tech we know that a campus is literally defenseless yet we block those who would voluntarily […]

When masks are outlawed only outlaws will have masks.

Don’t let the article fool you, Massachusetts has had lots of turkeys, they just send them all to Washington! Seriously though I’ve been a woodsman for 30 years and have not in any of that time seen the plethora of wild game that I see today. I have to wade through Turkey and deer […]

The crook probably learned more at the hands of his victims than he ever would have serving time in prison. I think the cop called it right, too. The crook was luck all they did to him was make him clean up the mess when the homeowner would likely be legally justified in shooting […]

Judge attacks nine errors in Al Gore’s ‘alarmist’ Inconvenient Truth. Sadly the irony is lost on the Greens.
