Does This Make Me a Globalist?

I guess GUNS Magazine has an international presence I was unaware of.

I was totally surprised to find my February "Safe Schools" article reproduced in German as "Sichere Schulen.”

Now I find “Escuelas Seguras” (Spanish) and “Écoles Sûres” (French) as well.

Don't these people realize I barely speak American? Or as Homer Simpson asked: "What do we need to learn English for? We're never going to England."

The Black Arrow

Andy Barniskis has reviewed Vin Suprynowicz’s The Black Arrow.

I haven’t read the book yet, but am looking forward to doing so. Vin holds a prominent place in my personal pantheon of great liberty writers of our time. I’d like to see his column widely syndicated throughout the land--not just so that he would reap the rewards of being a magnificent talent, but because his message is sorely needed by our countrymen.

I hope The Black Arrow sells.

I note Bill St.Clair over at End the War on Freedom is like a kid at Christmas with this book.

Gun Groups Warn Against “National ID Card"

Gun Owners of America and Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership have grave concerns over HR 418, “The Real ID Act.”

I have concerns too. I also have concerns about a wave of uncontrolled criminal migration that is fundamentally changing our culture and adding to the severely overstressed burdens on “We the People.” I know the Libertarian response is to end all welfare programs, but we know that isn’t going to happen any time soon, and we have a crisis NOW. And I know that anything proposed by the feds is going to have a hidden agenda for increasing their power and control at the expense of our freedom.

We must remember in this debate that the Founders ordained and established the Constitution to secure the blessings of Liberty for themselves and their posterity.
