      Texas Amazes Me Again

      For the life of me, I just cannot understand peoples fascination with Texas. It's damned near as backward as Mississippi and run by the same types of politicians. I guess some people think it's some sort of promised land for the conservative mindset, but cases like this point out that it's just...

      A little creeped out

      Two days ago my wife called me, and she was pretty upset. She had just gone to pick up my son from his preschool group. It's a small group, there are maybe 10 kids in it. There are 2 teachers and usually 2 assistants (volunteers I think) helping out. There was an older man working as an...

      11 Year Old Girl Defends Her Home And Self

      Here's yet another reason not to keep firearms away from your kids. This 11 year old girl used a small pink rifle (looks like a Cricket) to scare off 3 masked intruders. I'd hate to think what could have happened to her had she not had access to a firearm. Kudos to her family for teaching her...

      Here comes the .GOV to tell you where your baby should sleep

      So, they're going to try to ban drop side cribs because they are unsafe. How many people survived these? (raises hand) Tragically 32 children in the last 10 years have had their deaths attributed to these cribs. My question is, how many babies have been housed in such devices in those ten...

      ...and by surprise told me the rules of finding a gun (don't touch, leave the area, find an adult). I actually tested the rules on a gas lighter he saw in my bathroom (forgot it was there and he went to pick it up). So I immediately took the time to treat it like a gun (never called it a gun)...

      Comic books have turned to propaganda for kids

      First we have Marvel Comics teaming up with the United Nations to create a "free" pro-UN comic book to boost the image of the UN. The comic featured some of the most popular characters, such as Spiderman. The second article shows how "Captain America" comics have recently been used to skew...
