On Christians and the vote
In this, an election year, it would do us all well as a nation to give thought to the quotes below. We should seriously give consideration to the path which we have recently fallen into and whether such a path is for the greater good over time. Huge amounts of debt acquired in order to [...]
The Volcanic – or – Building A Gun From Scratch
I’ve been a member and a moderator of Paco Kelly’s leverguns.com forum since it was started several years ago. It’s a great place to hang out when time allows and is populated by some of the finest folks on the internet.
Recently a fellow started posting there. He goes by the name Charlie and builds guns [...]

When Guns Are Outlawed – part two
A while back I did a quick blurb called “When Guns Are Outlawed“. Well, since then I also read about a new knife for sale in the UK that is “stab proof”. Haven’t seen any pics yet, but I suspect it will have something like a large flat thing welded or forged on the tip. [...]
People
People. We are weird creatures. Given the ability to choose, too often we choose unwisely. Most seem to prefer to be told what to think rather than to reason through issues themselves.

…”our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.”
… “our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.” how strange those words sound to modern ears, words which are in little use and poorly comprehended by our current “civilization” in which anything goes, just so long as “number one” is taken care of. And yet, that is what the signers of the Declaration of [...]

As Independence Day Draws Near
In just a couple days we’ll be celebrating the fact that 232 years ago a band of brave men pledged their “lives, fortunes and their sacred honor” to declaring the 13 north American British colonies to be independent from England. They said “No!” to the stamp act, “No!” to the Tea Act, “No!” to the [...]
233 Years Ago Today
233 years ago today a group of simple village and farm folk stood up against the forces of an empire which desired to force upon them its ideals and laws. They “fired the shot heard ’round the world” and after several long years of war they attained their goal – a free and sovereign [...]
