It’s becoming more and more apparent that “alternative” news sources are the places to get real news. Even websites such as Alex Jones’s InfoWars.com and ZeroHedge.com are becoming more recognized as accurate purveyors of current events. InfoWars in particular I have avoided due to Alex Jones’s mannerism of over-the-top “every event spells doom for… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 16th, 2016

The shock from the election is still with me. I took Wednesday off as I expected Hillary to win and with that knowledge I wanted to reflect on what it all would mean.

Pretty much the only thing on my mind is the election. Just cannot comprehend how so many people could be fooled or are so ignorant to such a large extent that we are seriously looking at “President Hillary Clinton”. I shouldn’t be shocked after all Obama was elected twice. Back in November of 2012 I… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 7th, 2016
What, Not Who
Rourke: The following was originally published over at LifeToday.org. What, Not Who By James Robison The older I get, the more significant each election seems to be.

Springfield Armory has released their version of the AR-15 – the “Saint”. I got a chance to lay my hands on it in a non-shooting inspection and handling session. I like it. A lot. At the street price of around $869 it is not super inexpensive nor out of reach for most. I have a… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 4th, 2016

I caught myself recently telling a friend that I just could not understand why a carbine such as the old Marlin Camp 9 was not made today. I mean – Ruger made a 9mm carbine and others have.

The situation and tension between Russia and the United States continues to be eventful.

Final nail in the coffin
With the latest insanity surrounding the 2016 Presidential election it’s over for Trump.

Panhandle Rancher: OF POWER AND COSMETICS
Men have become nothing but economic goods for the illuminati of power. Goods to be bought, sold, or cast away at whim’s notice.

9/11: 15 Years Later
I use social media to promote patriotism and my political beliefs with a hope to positively influence others.
