If you cut your teeth in political behind-the-scenes talk from the 60's till present, you probably spent some time with Col. L. Fletcher Prouty's works. Undoubtably, your knowledge base was enhanced if not severely stretched. Take a while to navigate his web site. Col. Prouty's duties had him relating to the key decision makers for U.S. & world policy. He was, in my opinion a man who held the light high for those willing to seek the truth. An "all you can eat" political (& more) buffet. |

Arizona gun rights leader, Rick DeStephens (VP, Brassroots) got ink about his fiery ways of making city government obey the law. He has this wild idea that governments should at least adhere to the laws they expect citizens to obey. What moxy! This guy thinks he's the government's boss or something... Oh... he is.
KABA NOTE: Rick D., Tim Weaver and a few cohorts have paved a way for many other small groups of dedicated activists to follow. |

"A few weeks ago, Detective Jack Gilbride responded to a call of a 14-year-old teenager pulling out a gun on a 50-year-old man. When Gilbride arrived, he took cover and drew down on the boy, and then warned him."
"(I) told the subject five times to drop the weapon, to which he did not respond," Gilbride said. "He kept the weapon at his side the entire time. Thankfully, he didn't move it -- had he, I would've shot him."
~It turned out the gun was fake, so Akron wants to ban toy guns. |

Another UN challenge to our soverignty. I think the US (and any country) ought to abide by treaties it signs and ratifies, but I don't want some UN court telling us how to treat convicted murderers. The best part is that the court has the arrogance to claim its orders to the US government are legally binding! |

"A graduating senior at East Hartford High School got one final lesson before earning his diploma last week: Never make a sarcastic remark that can be interpreted as a threat of violence."
In cap and gown, he made a "funny" remark that he had a gun. Ha ha ha! The kid was "was charged with breach of peace and threatening."
Where the boy's father could bring a rifle to class, in today's society, this kid's "humor" provides him a chance to do some community service. |
