Fort Hood Massacre updates
November 6, 2009 | 1 Comment
Major Nidal Hasan, who evidently perpetrated the shooting at Fort Hood, was not killed in the attack, nor was the female MP or security officer who stopped him. Initial reports that two others were involved in the incident seem to be incorrect at this time.
According to news sources, Hasan is a Muslim who disagreed with [...]

Fort Hood Shooter apparently Army Officer
November 5, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Early news reports on the shooting at Fort Hood indicate that the alleged perpetrator was a U.S. Army major armed with two handguns. In what seems to be some sort of “reverse fragging” incident, the major apparently “executed” 11 or 12 soldiers and wounded over 30 others, before being killed himself by a civilian security guard [...]

A third party vote is a wasted vote.
November 5, 2009 | Leave a Comment
As if we needed another reminder that third party candidates are the real third rail of American politics, the results of the GOP debacle in NY’s 23rd Congressional District should serve as a stinging lesson in Street Smarts 101. You don’t split the vote by endorsing a third party candidate!
“Mistakes were made,” as the North [...]

Conservative Jews-a conundrum for the Left
October 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Dennis Prager has posted an outstanding article on the Front Page Magazine Website concerning the fanatical devotion of the Left to the secular humanistic dogma of what can only be called their “religion” of state control of virtually everything. Although not mentioned in Prager’s post, we have seen this kind of quasi-religious zeal expressed again [...]

2nd Amendment Poetry-The Demon Gun
October 24, 2009 | Leave a Comment
A number of years ago, a religious leader in Denver, Colorado coined the phrase “Demon Guns.” I wrote a poem at the time about the irony of blaming an inanimate object for the violence perpetrated by a few human beings. At this time, as the jails and prisons spew forth their inmates in [...]

Recognizing Terrorists
October 8, 2009 | Leave a Comment
To me, the most troubling aspect of the home-grown Colorado video, Recognizing the 8 signs of Terrorism, narrated by John Elway and Kim Christiansen, is what the video doesn’t say. It’s useful to alert citizens to suspicious behaviors regard high-value terrorist targets. People photographing or taking detailed notes regarding dams or power stations could raise [...]

British Boy Scouts ban pocket knives. What can you say?
September 28, 2009 | Leave a Comment
I don’t know what to say about the latest British example of hoplophobia (fear of weapons). I have struggled with this issue for several weeks trying to think of some compassionate comment about the unreasoning nanny state mentality that has apparently gripped our Anglo Saxon allies by the throat and various other parts of their anatomies.

Is S. 2099 a deliberate red herring?
September 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment
S. 2099 is harder to kill than a vampire with a metal breastplate and a tanker truck full of spf 10,000 sunblock. The NRA and GOA have put out information that this thing is a relic of the 2000 Federal Legislative Session, yet it still lives on the Internet! (See my post dated 06-07-09, “All together [...]

Obama’s Original School Speech-Zero Tolerance for Dissent-The Audacity of Expectations
September 11, 2009 | 2 Comments
The Left is nothing if not clever in the way they frame the ideological debate between Conservatism and their “Progressive” ideology. The “Zero Tolerance” policy regarding weapons on school grounds is a classic example. The Educational Establishment, made up of Left-wing administrators and teachers’ union members, forbids discussion of, artistic portrayal of, or display of [...]
