Handguns and the Second Amendment

Republicans do not constitute “A well regulated Militia,” and armed individuals alone are not necessary to the security of our free State: the Military, National Guard, FBI, police departments and The Supreme Court have been assigned that role.

(PASO ROBLES, CA) - Hardly a day goes by that we don’t read of another killing and or wounding of family members, or others, by handguns.

Visions of Violence in Defense of the Dollar

Unless the U.S. concedes defeat to the Asian economic powers, its only way to postpone the inevitable demise of the dollar is to use military force.

(TEHRAN) - "In contrast to the murderous vision of violent extremists, we are joining with allies and partners around the world to build their capacity to promote security..." wrote U.S. President Barack Obama.

The report details the United States’ own vision of violent extremism being directed against Iran.

The NRA -- A terrorist organization

Guns + testosterone + NRA = American terrorism.

(CALGARY, Alberta) - There were sombre ceremonies across Tucson, Arizona on Sunday, January 8, 2012, in remembrance of Jared Loughner’s shooting spree a year ago where he seriously wounded Representative Gabrielle Giffords, killed six and wounded 12 more.

I suggest that the Untied States, is the only country in world, where remembrances could be held virtually every single day of the year for egregious killings of citizens by their other citizens—all indirectly supported by the National Rifle Association.

Mysteries of Unseen Force: Racetrack Playa`s Sliding Rocks & River-Curved Rifles in France

Geophysics rendezvous with aerodynamics in Death Valley, possibly solving the 'traveling rock' mystery; while recovered war relics in France defy explanation...

(SALEM) - What elements of nature move solid objects with invisible force?

These questions and a possible answer to the first, are the nature of this article about seemingly unnatural occurrences, at least one of which, may not be such a mystery after all.

Was Former DEA Agent Jailed for Exposing ATF Arms Trafficking?

Bad Moon Rising Over Great Sirte Bay

“Everyone Says We are Rich. Then Why Do We Feel So Poor?”

(SIRTE, Libya Al Manar) - This observer, with his sandaled feet comfortably dug into the sand of a chilly Mediterranean beach and huddled next to a camp fire with a congenial and bright group of still heavily armed “NATO rebels,” is learning that the past eight months’ experiences for many Libyans who fought with or for NATO were rather different from what the western mainstream media portrayed.

And what many of us who spent last summer in the Western Libya Gadhafi stronghold were inclined to believe about them.

(SALEM) - The conduct the U.S. is willing to commit to quiet its opponents is shocking. Retired DEA Agent Celerino "Cele" Castillo III was a front line agent for 12 years in the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Today he's serving a 37-month prison sentence, and the feds would not mind if Americans believed they convicted someone in connection with a crime the ATF is presently accused of.

Balfour`s Apartheid Legacy

Balfour and his clueless pals in the corridors of British power clearly had no idea of the true purpose and base methods of Zionism.

(LONDON) - Arthur Balfour's infamous "Declaration" was written 94 years ago this week. Palestinians, of course, don’t need reminding.

And to mark the anniversary Israel ordered its warships to carry out yet another act of piracy on peaceful, innocent shipping carrying humanitarian relief to the imprisoned people of Gaza.
