Churchill’s Wisdom

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist …

Background Checks

Lots of talk about “expanding” background checks for firearms purchases. Lots of reasonable people on both sides of the argument disagree what that would mean. But so far no one seems to have suggested the obvious – probably because so few in the argument have ever actually participated in what goes into buying a firearm. …

Lowering Gun Violence

This via Jon McNaughton.  I have no idea the validity of the numbers, but the sentiment is thought provoking. This morning I was reading a blog entry on Glenn Beck’s The Blaze when I ran across this blogger’s words.  I thought it was rather interesting.  Here is the post: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/01/18/the-end-of-gun-control-or-anarchy-see-the-chilling-possibilities-created-by-3d-printed-guns/ Rangerskippy said: Want to see a …

IT pays

I’ve lately become a fan of Lonerider Beer’s “Sweet Josie”, and tonight, while attempting to access their website, I am greeted with this bullshit:   So… who forgot to register the freaking domain?  Who’s the manager in charge of hiring a competent IT geek?  This is inexcusable.  I buy enough of your beer myself to pay …

Trayvon Martin

Well, this case might just get interesting. Apparently, a witness has emerged, who says Martin attacked Zimmerman. Let the riots begin!  Oh, wait… apparently, the witness may also be something other than a privileged white male. Still doesn’t justify Zimmerman following Martin in the first place.  Still doesn’t justify the self-proclaimed neighborhood watch ‘captain’ carrying …

2012

Happy New Year! Let’s hope this year brings an end to the ridiculous situation we’ve endured for the last three years, and blows wide the theory that an ancient culture mapped out our demise. Me, I’m just going to enjoy my black eyed peas and hope for the best!
