Liberty: Can We Ever Restore It

By Frank Neudecker

By Neal Ross
I have been told that I sound like a broken record, constantly harping on our governments unwillingness to adhere to the constitution. That may be so, but I do it for a reason. You see, when our government refuses to adhere to the constitution, your rights come under attack.

“Diversify” Historic Monuments at N.C. State Capitol

By Frank Neudecker

From my friend at NC Heritage:
Spring is coming soon, so it’s time for the annual attack on Confederate monuments at the North Carolina State Capitol. This time around, the N.C.

Profiling Morons

By Fred Marshell III

Next, I’ll make what I believe to be a safe assumption that no one reading this is a moron.  I’ve chosen to use the group “morons” to illustrate my point because they never seem to be offended by anything anyone says or… »

I suspect all of us have this internal mechanism that drives us to desire that our name be on the list of individuals that did something that some might say should be immortalized in time. We might have dreamed of being King Leonidas I of Sparta or one of his immortal 300 or kneeling next… »

Be Prepared

By Fred Marshall, Jr

This was sent by a friend, who reiterated a question asked at the end of the article about how we will communicate with our loved ones in the event these dire (but realistic) predictions come to pass.  Please consider this very seriously.  Thoughtful suggestions are welcome.  I mentioned walkie-talkies, CB radios, ham radio & shortwave… »
