“Soldiers tend to be scared of IEDs because they know that they can kill.”
“They don’t scare me because it’s my job to defuse them. It’s all about being in your comfort zone. When I’m defusing bombs I’m in my comfort zone.”

“A soldier who was shot through the neck by a sniper in Afghanistan has told how he escaped death by just three millimetres.â€
”My first thought was that with the amount of blood coming out I’d had it – I thought I was going to die. There was blood all over the rest of the men. After a couple of seconds I knew I was still breathing and I thought I must be paralysed.

SD Gov Signs Firearms Freedom Act into Law
From: Dakota Voice
The South Dakota Legislature recently passed SB 89 which declares “exempt from federal regulation any firearm, firearm accessory, or ammunition manufactured and retained in South Dakota.â€Now, a little more than a week later, South Dakota Governor Mike Rounds has signed the bill into law.
The bill is the latest of many crafted in states across the country in the last year which re-assert the Tenth Amendment rights of the states which have been carelessly trampled by the federal government for decades.
Combat to Clays: A Woman’s Journey
From: Heide Kaser
When I left the FBI Academy after sixteen weeks of training in 1986, I was covered in
Heide Kaser
the most beautiful shades of purple, green, and yellow from my face to my collarbone, and down my bicep. The shotgun was too long, and my long neck and high cheekbones made it impossible to mount the gun properly to my shoulder while maintaining a proper sight picture (which is critical to defensive shotgun shooting). I lifted my face off the gun while shooting creating a horrible flinch, and all of the bad habits that ensue when shooting an ill-fitted gun followed suit. I was convinced that no one had ever hated a shotgun like I did in my bruised and frustrated condition.
Despite all odds, I was determined to accomplish two things:Â learn to shoot properly
Heide Kaser
without pain, and share with others (especially women), the training and tricks I had learned over time. Thirteen years later, armed with the knowledge that comes from first-hand experience and training, I was hired by the NRA’s Law Enforcement Activities Division. I had the opportunity to share what I had learned by training police officers and members of the military to become Law Enforcement Firearm Instructors in handgun, rifle, and yes, shotgun.
I set my sights on expanding my shotgun knowledge into other realms.I sought out top combat and competitive instructors, and made great progress after spending a week at Tac Pro Shooting Center in Texas with Bill Davidson, and practicing with the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) Grand Master Greg Wodack (who manages the NRA Range in Fairfax, VA).

“Paulin-Ramirez ditched her life in the Rocky Mountain city of Leadville, Colo., last September, and allegedly joined a small group of radical Islamists in Ireland who planned to claim a $100,000 Al Qaeda bounty by killing a Swedish cartoonist who drew the prophet Mohammed as a dog.â€
Marines in Afghanistan: rogues or effective warriors?
Posted by Jack Sinclair in News on 14/Mar/2010 19:19
Helmand, Afghanistan
A recent Washington Post headline reads: “At Afghan outpost, Marines gone rogue or leading the fight against counterinsurgency?”
“The Marine approach — creative, aggressive and, at times, unorthodox — has won many admirers within the military. The Marine emphasis on patrolling by foot and interacting with the population, which has helped to turn former insurgent strongholds along the Helmand River valley into reasonably stable communities with thriving bazaars and functioning schools, is hailed as a model of how U.S. forces should implement counterinsurgency strategy.”
Let the warriors win. It’s what they do best.

Government intrusion gets worse in the UK: proposal to require a test before you are allowed to get a dog – which must have an RFID chip in it so the government can track it’s location at all times.
Posted by Jack Sinclair in News on 13/Mar/2010 12:23
“The steps being considered mean that every dog owner in the land will have to fit their pet with a microchip so that its whereabouts can be determined from dog-spotting spy-in-the-sky drones, and that before being allowed to take delivery of a puppy, people will have to sit an exam similar to the driving theory test. The cost could reach £60, and on top of this you will need compulsory third-party insurance in case your spaniel eats the milkman.”
“…the behaviour of one man has skewed the concept of everyday life for everyone else. And we are seeing this all the time.”
“We must start to accept that 5% of the population at any given time is bonkers.”
Maybe if they can get us to accept having to chip our dogs, get us to become comfortable with that, then they can nudge us into having our children chipped, and then let them put chips in us. For our own good, of course, because the government knows best.
