Three shots from his inexperienced militia — followed by their hasty retreat — was exactly what Daniel Morgan needed to win the day at the fateful Battle of Cowpens.
It usually pastures cattle on their way to market. But on a frigid January morning in 1781, this "open…

There will be an attack on the 2nd Amendment for sure. The Government is turning the illegal immigration and drug war problem on our border with Mexico into a 'gun control' problem here in the United states.
The foundations of propaganda are being laid. We will somehow be
'victimizing' Mexico at the end of the day with this administration and it's viewpoints.
We are living in dangerous times.

Obama's Tyranny Agenda
http://www.realclearworld.com/articles/2009/03/obamas_tyranny_agenda.html
By Troy Senik
Those of us who served in the Bush Administration remember well the derision that met the former president’s “Freedom Agenda” in the elite salons of Washington. We were the Texas imperialists hungry for third-world spoils. We were a posse of Dr. Strangelove acolytes intent on destroying the world to save it. Even some of our friends portrayed us…

Once again, the Fed monetizing our debt outright is the 'game over' option to handle the collapsing economy.
This is true failure and everyone needs to be planning for a Post-Collapse lifestyle if they have not already.
Expect a devaluation of the dollar and hyper-inflation of common goods.

Quote - "For those who are in that second category, who can be released, there are a variety of options that we have. Among them is the possibility that we could release them into this country," he said.
Releasing any Gitmo prisoners into the population is bare of common sense, and exposes the complete incompetence of this administration.
