My published review
of Mike Ligon’s 10 Years on the Line for
Amazon (1st review I ever did for Amazon!)

Preparing for societal COLLAPSE – Why Mark Levin
believes the government is buying vast amounts of ammo
http://www.therightscoop.com/preparing-for-societal-collapse-why-mark-levin-believes-the-govt-is-buy-vast-amounts-of-ammo/
The economic and social collapse
emphasized by Levin is already well along. For example, the rule of law
has already collapsed in terms of illegal immigration. Imagine – I.C.E. LEOs suing their supervisors because they are not
permitted to do their jobs. And POTUS is
rapidly adding gasoline to the fires he has started across America.
On a lighter
note, “enjoy” Come to the USA . Then get serious.
At what cost, America,
“Cheap” Labor, Plentiful Drugs and Votes?
What crosses the border from ALL OVER THE WORLD, ends UP HERE.
Are you prepared to immediately defend your
family when the cops are still minutes away?
Truly informed legislators/citizens make
informed and intelligent decisions.
News of Import
2-26-2013
A few thoughts before this News of Import.
The Fed is monetizing debt, printing money to pay debt. The monetary base is
3.5 times what it was in 2008 and the only reason the stock market is up is
because the Fed is injecting 80 billion dollars into the market each month.
With this said, The government is giving out Pet food stamps now, working with
the Mexican authorities so that illegals crossing our borders are told by the Mexican
Govt that they can get food stamps, housing
assistance, etc. and unemployment benefits for 99 months at least if you’re a
liberal. I say the last, as my 6 months got cut to 4 and it is a long story to
which I was told I did not qualify for benefits after that. Additionally, other
states have made it all but impossible for shelters to feed the poor, forcing
people to get food stamps.
On a final note, Obama and his DHS Secretary told the nation and congress that
the US/MX border is secure, and yet because they do not like any cuts to their
spending the administration, is now saying that budget cuts will cause the
border to be porous and allow illegals to flood the country along with
terrorist. Let’s be clear: it is a 2.4% spending cut on spending that was
already being raised, so in truth, the sequester is a
cut on the growth of the raise of spending, and not a real cut. The liberals
are attacking on all sides, especially Texas where female students were
encouraged to dress up in burqas at a Texas high
school using Islam-biased curriculum, saying terrorists were freedom fighters.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning
that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great
equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of
their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not
master of the governed. When the British forgot that they got
a revolution. And, as a result, we Americans got a Constitution; a
Constitution that, as those who wrote it were determined, would keep men free.
If we give up part of that Constitution we give up part of our freedom and increase
the chance that we will lose it all." --Ronald
Reagan

"By calling attention to 'a well regulated militia,' 'the security of the nation,' and
the right of each citizen 'to keep and bear arms,' our founding fathers
recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy... The Second
Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military
relationships in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the
defense of his country. For that reason I believe the Second Amendment will
always be important." - John F. Kennedy
