It’s fair to say that many on the left are guilty of projection. They accuse those on the right of being violent and unhinged, when in fact they’re the ones fantasizing about violence against their opponents. And in many cases, such as at Antifa rallies, they act on those fantasies. But what kind of conflict […]

The Biden administration has publicly announced that it wants to cut US greenhouse gas emissions by half by 2030. To say that’s ambitious is a bit of an understatement. That would require significant changes to the US economy and to US patterns of consumption, among them the consumption of meat. You may have seen headlines […]

When we normally think about survival, we think about some sort of existential crisis – the aftermath of a hurricane, the weeks after severe flooding, or the possibility of a long grid-down situation. But we hardly ever imagine that daily life at some point could become a survival scenario. We have become so used to […]

The 4th Amendment to the US Constitution states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and […]

Government officials have long been treating 1984 and A Brave New World as roadmaps rather than as warnings.

Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa protesters have gotten used to the idea of blocking major roads, even including interstate highways, as part of their protests. These dangerous stunts have snarled traffic and, in […]

As handgun ammunition developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and semiautomatic pistols began to become more commonplace, the straight-walled cartridges common to revolvers began to give way to bottle-necked cartridges such as the .30 Mauser, .30 Luger, and eventually the 7.62x25mm Tokarev. For one reason or another, however, those early cartridge developments […]

Leftists have a history of playing fast and loose with rules. They love to twist the meaning of words to make them mean the exact opposite of what they really mean in order to get what they want. They’ll break rules wherever they can, confident that they either won’t get caught or, if they are […]
