Fayetteville, NC held two tea party protests today approximately one block apart. The one at the corner of Hay and Person street involved speakers and a crowd of approximately 150 people. People were spilling over into the street and you could seen some TV trucks from the MSM, but it'll be interesting to see how much they report.The second protest was at the traffic circle on Hay street. People

As you can see, I haven't posted to this blog in a while. Not sure I have enough to say to attract folks here, but this is something I just had to post about, if for no other reason to increase the links to these problems.You see, I 've been following the story of Red's Trading Post for some time now on their own site, and on the War on Guns site. Here's the nutshell. Gun dealer has some

In the mental health field, when we have someone who gets emotionally upset just looking at a picture of an object, we usually call that irrational, a phobia, something that's just not "normal."Apparently some poor soul in the Hartford, Connecticut area had this problem while reading the sports section:"Then I was smacked in the gut by the advertisement on the back page of the section in my hand.

Most people would probably agree that people seem to have gotten more selfish and self-centered in the passing years. I haven't actually seen the research to indicate how much of this is reality and how much is just our perception, but it sure is my perception that we've become a seriously "It's all about me." society. I guess I should point out the irony of talking about others "It's all about

This is a topic that's been rumbling around in my head for a while now. I'm not sure I can articulate it in as much detail as is often seen over at The Smallest Minority, but I'm going to give it a shot.Many gun owners seem to think that the dawn of anti-gun folks and politicians seems to be around the 1920s 1930s with the passage of the NFA. Sadly, I've got news for them, we've been fighting

A man was charged with carrying a concealed weapon after police found a nutcracker in his pocket and he said he used it to protect himself.Yup, he's a major danger to you if he can get your pants and underwear down first, otherwise, just keep him away from the pecans.http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=532822

Not that we're really suprised by the folks in the Chicago area, but I found this on Icarry.org. It's a new county ordinance expanding the ban on various so-called "assualt weapons" and features of assualt weapons"Here's the text with a few of them highlighted with my comments in red:ARTICLE VI. ASSAULT WEAPONS BANSection 6-1 Definitions.As used in Article VI of this Ordinance, the following

A self described "liberal with a temper" posted this blog post saying she is "Thanful for restrictive handgun laws." She goes on to say "I am in the foulest of moods." So, she seems to fear she'd go on a rampage were she to have a gun. Guess that's why lots of liberals want to ban my guns...if they don't trust themselves, why would they trust me?Sure, she may be just making a joke here, but I'm

I've noticed several times in recent days that I've been in a store, gone to the check out, made my purchase and left without a store clerk saying a single word to me. You walk up to the checkout, they take the item, scan it, reach out for your money or credit card, then hand you the receipt back... no word spoken. What's the deal?I had to take a DVD back to the store I rented it from because it

I guess I should start by telling a little about myself. I'm in the mental health field. This would normally mean that I tend to lean to the left politically as most mental health people tend to be that way. Well, I'm not. I'm more libertarian than anything else. I'm a small government kind of guy. Generally I don't like talking about politics, as it just gets people upset, but there are things
