Click on pictures to enlarge . Dallas, TX —On November 22, 1963 the act of a dysfunctional creep took the life of an American President, John F. Kennedy . Killing a president is a pointless act because he is followed by a Vice President that shares the same views. I have been convinced that Lee Oswald wanted to be a big man in Fidel Castro’s eyes and get a hero’s welcome in Cuba. Oswald had no financing or resources to further his deed. Oswald bought the rifle used for a mere $20.00. It was an unpopular, bolt-action 6.5MM Italian war surplus rife barely adequate for the job. On the same Klein’s Sporting Goods ad was the venerable US Army, 30.06, M-1 Grand, semi-automatic rifle. The Garand has much more power, accuracy and the ability of firing more than twice the number of shots in the same time limitations. The Garand cost $90.00 and was listed in the same advertisement. Additionally there were a number of powerful, accurate hunting style rifles that could have been purchased...

Nuremberg, Germany— They still have firearms in Europe. In fact, cowboy action shooting hobbyists have taken over by storm. Hunting and conservation is still important to thousands across the Atlantic. Not every country has joined the extreme gun banning of the UK. March 13 through 16 this will be the place to be. Of course there are lots of law enforcement products and agencies with their checkbooks needing the latest and greatest equipment. This is the place to see the newest firearms and accessories anywhere on the continent. Of course buyers and exhibitors from more than 100 countries attend this annual event. It’s that time again even though this grand old city’s weather is still a little nippy. But there is a lot to see and do here for the over 30,000 people expected to attend. The American manufacturers exhibiting here find this show as a great place to do business. Like the American SHOT SHOW this is only open to members of the trade and journalists. Now if I can only f...

Washington, DC —The United States Secret Service had better keep the new president, Barack Obama in a bunker for his own safety. There is more than a little chatter about killing our elected leader on the Internet. Out of curiosity I put Obama and assassination into the Google search engine. This was the staggering and shocking result: “Results 1 - 10 of about 3,320,000 for Obama assassination . (0.28 seconds)” Then I took the term’s Bush and assassination and got this result: “Results 301,000 for bush assassination . (0.33 seconds)” George W. Bush was the most unpopular President of my lifetime and he held office for eight years! Also in that same figure you must include George H.W. Bush who served four years. There are people who hate Obama for the color of his skin and a lot more that hate the Red color of his politics. Those were the motivations for this chatter for the most part of the tiny percentage of sites I read. The so called, Trillion Dollar Stimulus Package is...

Most Americans are confused. They don’t know the Right from the Left. Here is a short but informative political science lesson. You will see clearly where we are headed .

Washington, DC —It’s a sad day for America as the dedicated Communists have the majority and are able to destroy our free market system. They had the opportunity to stop the runaway corruption in our banking system but these same politicians were a big part of the problem creating the bank failures and monetary crisis. The Communists have figured out a way to make things much worse if that was possible. This action will soon bring about unrest, Martial Law and Armageddon before it’s over. They have gotten what they wanted a clear path to the end of freedom, liberty and our way of life. Every politician that supported this so-called, “Stimulus Package” is now an enemy of The United States of America. The same is true for any President that would dare sign this garbage into law. They should be arrested and tried for treason . They violated their oaths to protect our Constitution.

Portsmouth, NH —With our new Communist leadership we are becoming more like Cuba and North Korea every day. We’ve made a huge issue of dispute resolution through various types of court restraining orders. Sooner or later the Bolshevik style make work projects will be to construct enough prisons to hold most Americans. In rare situations the orders serve their purpose. Orders are merely pieces of paper. If you really need protection get training and carry a gun! One silly case got a man charged with a felony crime for flipping off someone under the protection of one of those orders. Was that overkill? You bet. Welcome to the Socialist Republic of Amerika, Comrade! Read more about this sordid story here.

Washington, DC —The world’s Communist/Socialist elite put record sums of cash behind a man of little experience or substance. They subverted the election process with the help of willing media by creating a celebrity. If they wanted a celebrity Paris Hilton had more to offer. Barack Obama has been faltering as he’s allowed the Loony Left in our Congress to load the so-called “Stimulus Bill” with billions of tax dollars for crap that can only destroy the free market as we know it. There is nothing for Americans that have paid taxes except a promise of ruin. We have an economy that is depressed. The only avenue for remedy is less government and taxes. Instead they are manufacturing a full blown Catastrophe that will ultimately create a human holocaust. As we make our currency worthless by over-printing and distributing it we will find ourselves bartering food, fuel and possessions. Crime will rise off the charts as the millions of drug addicted people in this country will no longer be ...

Washington, DC —As Barack Obama and the other Communists in our government order endless amounts of money printed and given away for crap we don’t need, I have a better idea. They don’t have enough people or presses to print all the money they want to throw around. There is a solution! Let everyone with a copy machine duplicate all the money they need! No checks to write or send around and the paper won’t be any more worthless than government printed money is about to become. God help us all.

Washington, DC -Rewarding corrupt and failing businesses with taxpayer money in the form of bailouts is both un-American and insane. If anyone deserves rewards it’s profitable well-run companies that employ people! The reward should be to stop taxing these companies and to encourage them to reinvest into hiring more people. The idea of the non-stop printing of money backed by nothing will do nothing except destroy our economy and way of life. Putting out another trillion dollars to those special interests who contribute to political campaigns to provide garbage we don’t want or need is beyond baffling. That’s just what they’re doing. Instead of giving money away let’s let Americans keep and spend their own money on things and services they need. Why do we need bureaucrats to take our money and then return it subject to complicated accounting schemes? Of course along the way crooks are there to siphon off vast amounts of money through fraud. Barack Obama and his band of Bolsheviks a...

Chicago, IL —It was in September of 1982. I had recently left the bitter cold, Windy City to enjoy the next chapter of my life in Phoenix, Arizona. There was no Internet to keep up with friends and news like there is today. There was a National news story that was shocking to say the least. People in the Chicago area were randomly murdered by some terrorist placing cyanide into Tylenol capsules and putting them on store shelves for purchase. People were dropping dead and Tylenol its maker, Johnson & Johnson suddenly had a public relations nightmare. The motive has never been clear but I subscribed to the two most popular theories. Someone murdered a victim they lived with who was a regular Tylenol user by this method. At the same time the offender spread the deadly booby-trapped pain medication around to confuse investigators. The other motive seemed to be simple extortion. When I mustered out of the Army in 1970 I returned to live in the Old Town area of Chicago. Back then, I ke...

Washington, DC --As the Ultra Left Wing gained total control over all Americans we absolutely need to eliminate the death penalty. Many of us are expecting the worst as our economy is tanking and out free market system is under a massive Socialist attack. Martial Law can’t be far behind. As they begin efforts to seize firearms and other property it will be Conservatives and gun owners they will try and execute through the courts. Why entrust the dark forces with this kind of power? The life you save may be your own or someone important to you. As for criminals they can rot in prison. We may however soon see political prisoners in our own country.

Bolingbrook, IL —The entire world knows all about retired police sergeant, Drew Peterson’s love life. This tabloid driven mystery story surrounds two young women, one dead and one missing. Both women were married to Peterson and suspicious minds have zeroed in on Peterson as an evil creator of the mystery. The truth is that we just don’t know what’s behind the circumstances. It’s no secret that Peterson has a fascination with supple, pretty and much younger women. I’m not sure what people think about this issue but we all know younger women are energetic, fun and better looking than most middle aged women. Middle aged men still enjoy the attributes of younger women. We all know too many middle aged women who no longer know how to laugh and have fun. Ageing is equally unkind to most women as it is to flowers. Recently I had a chat with Peterson’s lawyer, Joel Brodsky . Brodsky gave me a little insight into the latest chapter of Drew Peterson’s current world. Brodsky told me h...

Washington, DC — Barack Obama is either dumb, a fool or thinks the Constitution is his to amend on a whim. The bailouts given to the business and banks can’t interfere with private contracts. These failing and rogue outfits can pay their executives whatever they want despite bailouts. The Bolsheviks may be in power now but they are still running a country subject to our Constitution. When they break the Constitution the shooting and bombing will begin here as it should. The bailouts were the beginning of the destruction of our way of life. Bailouts are grossly unfair to the properly run and profitable banks and business of America. American style private enterprise demands that the crappy business fail and better run outfits take their place in a free market. I guess Obama thinks he’s been elected to be, The Bolshevik Wizard of Oz. Obama is heading down a dangerous path. Lives will be ruined and extinguished with the reckless Socialist changes in this country that has soundly ...

When Sheriff Michael Carona was accused of among other things selling permits to carry guns, he resigned and was replaced by a political appointee, Sandra Hutchens . Hutchens apparently has a strong distaste for the Second Amendment and anyone who supports gun rights. Hutchens wasted no time pandering to her own gun rights hatred and began revoking existing permits and rejecting new applications. This is a sensitive issue in Orange County and a November 2008 hearing was held to study the permit policy of Sheriff Hutchens. When the matter of concealed weapon permits and issuance policies came up before the Orange County Board, sheriff’s officials acting under Hutchens brought a gauntlet of intimidating cops to provide extra security at the meeting. This sent an ugly message that Sheriff Hutchens feels the citizens coming to participate in their own government’s business are somehow dangerous. Hutchens hand-picked political hacks like Assistant Sheriff Mike Hillmann , sheriff's ...

Washington, DC— The most far reaching gun confiscation enabling law ever, has hit the Congressional hopper. Despite Obama’s pledges to support the Second Amendment the new President and his merry band of traitors have have big plans for those people who dare cling to guns and religion. Our currency faces the prospect of becoming worthless with the planned unchecked printing and spending. The Far Left now has absolute power. We are facing the same problems Europe suffered after World War I . Political power shifted from a democracy to a dictatorship. Unrest in the United States due to millions being idle, homeless and hungry will lead to Martial Law and government efforts to control people angry with their government. If American police and military troops won’t control the population help will be sought from UN and foreign military troops offered by Communist Countries. It will be done for "our safety". New York, California and Illinois Bolsheviks think the rest of the...

Clear Lake, IA —It was 1959 and three wonderful, young, music making pioneers, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson were on a light plane that crashed killing all aboard. Holley was only 22 and has influenced music ever since. The other boys were also in the beginnings of skyrocketing careers. We are all poorer being deprived of music they all might still be making today had fate not intervened. I met another great entertainer who lost a coin toss for that very plane ride but won his life and career instead. That was the late, great Waylon Jennings who was a pal of KTVK-TV’s former owner Del Lewis in Phoenix. Jennings would stop by from time to time to perform for Good Morning Arizona . If Holly lived he’d be 72 years old today. I hope there is a Rock and Roll Heaven with one Hell of a band. They’ve been gone so long bet left us all music we still listen to today along with bittersweet memories. Don McClain and his hit song got it wrong, thankfully the...

Reporters never seem to understand police work. Media reporting nearly always fails somewhere when the reports are about crime, courts and cops. Journalists never get an important basic education that would help them better understand police work. Interviews and interrogations are as important for journalists as they are for seasoned police detectives. Reporters overrate themselves in this area because they do lots of interviews. Experience is just not enough. In 1956 the bible for criminal investigation was written by two heavyweights. The book, Fundamentals of Criminal Investigation by Charles E. O'Hara and Gregory L. O'Hara is as relevant today as it was over a half-century ago. Of course new editions are issued regularly to keep the information up to date. There is no better guide for grilling suspects and getting to the truth than what’s contained in this book. Reporters, private investigators and lawyers would gain by getting a current copy to read and use as a referen...

San Diego, CA -- KGTV's Joe Little is on the beat as a VJ or backpack journalist. As it rains pink slips in newsrooms all over America the only thing left standing will be the VJ when it comes to bringing stories to television in your community. The reporter is sent out alone with a camera and must produce, write, shoot edit and make a presentable story for broadcast. That’s a challenge to say the least. Technology has provided great tools, lightweight equipment and the editing is usually done on a laptop computer. There are cool some tricks that can make your video entertaining but over-use will make them old fast. You can’t trade tricky video for substance. Of course the reporter will shoot B-roll of the scene and interview those with firsthand accounts of whatever story is involved. The most difficult part is where the reporter faces his own camera and does his standup. He cannot monitor the audio or control the camera while he’s in front of it. This concept works for TV...

Phoenix, AZ —Never let it be said that Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio isn’t clever. He has an uncanny ability to solve some problems usually in front of rolling TV news cameras. The problem the good sheriff had was that his deputies were paying parking fees or getting citations on county cars at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport . The deputies need to pick up many freshly extradited prisoners there wanted for felony matters to deposit in Sheriff Joe’s jail. The problem was that the City of Phoenix refused to cooperate by ending their parking fee extortion against the county cops. Fighting Extortion With Extortion The City of Phoenix just unveiled their new light rail mass transportation system with service to Sky Harbor Airport. City officials are feverishly trying to get the public to use the new system. Sheriff Joe could not wait to oblige and help them with their public relations campaign. I don’t think Sheriff Joe’s publicity idea was what the city politicians were looking for to...

Washington, DC —The Bolsheviks have now gotten absolute power to destroy our form of government and way of life. Barack Obama and his merry band of Chicago Democratic Machine thieves are feverishly working to make us part of a new Global Communist government. The evidence is clear as they are nationalizing private enterprise wherever they can. Government officials are bailing out every failing or crooked large business in sight. This is simply paying good money after bad. The so-called stimulus program is nothing more than giveaways to their political contributors. They are simply printing money backed by nothing. That will never work and only create an inflation nightmare as the dollar becomes nonnegotiable and worthless. My plan is simple. Since our jobs are vanishing at an alarming rate and these now idle people may not be absorbed back into the workplace we can give them real relief. The unemployed don’t need help from welfare and nanny programs. They do need help in start...
