Gunblogger Bob Owens, a writer for Bob’s Gun Counter and Confederate Yankee blogs, has put his money-where-his-mouth-is for what is right. Like many of us, Bob has been following the Congressional hearings into the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (BATFE, also known as ATF) critically flawed and “unconventional investigation” into weapons smuggling into [...]

Bimbo’s in East Tennessee
June 4th, 2011 · 6 Comments · America, Humor
I’ve heard some carping about the presence of Bimbo’s in East Tennessee during the LuckyGunner.com blog shoot.

I have to confess, I entered Bimbo’s while I was there [...]

Phony Crisis Averted – Gov’t Spending to Continue Unabated
April 9th, 2011 · 1 Comment · America, News, Politics

The news media and politicians droned monotonously about how severe the impact of a government shutdown would be. Children would die, women would lose their rights, the elderly would go hungry, and our soldiers would go unpaid while they risked their [...]

New Names for the Tenderloin District
March 29th, 2011 · No Comments · America, Humor, News
PETA is demanding that San Francisco change the name of the slummy Tenderloin District to some kind of cruelty-free food product.

The 2010 Elections Are Over. Now What?
November 3rd, 2010 · No Comments · America, News, Politics
So you’ve slept off the Slurpee hangovers, given some high-fives, and perhaps done some gloating on Facebook or Twitter. Now what? I think Arizona talk radio station KFYI’s Mike Broomhead said it best. NOW IS WHEN THE WORK BEGINS. It’s feet to the fire time, folks. The politicians (on both sides) got elected because they [...]
