President 0bama promised that he was going to implement efforts to erase your right to bear arms “under the radar.” Now, he’s brought the fight to Arizona.

Using the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the 0bama administration has proposed banning recreational shooting in the half-million acres of Sonoran Desert National Monument.

BLM has released proposed plans for the future management of nearly 1.4 million acres located southwest of Phoenix, in parts of Maricopa, Pinal, Pima, Gila and Yuma Counties. Of that total, over 486,000 acres are within the Sonoran Desert National Monument. The proposals can be found at: http://www.blm.gov/az/st/en/prog/planning/son_des.html .

Two of the possible alternatives (“D” and “E”) propose closing the area to recreational shooters. Presently, some 63 sites in the national monument are used by recreational shooters. The proposed plans also address other issues of importance to shooters and hunters, including the designation of roads and trails for motorized vehicles and areas that could be managed as wilderness.

Is Your Choice Of Food A Fundamental Right?:

09-23-2011 • Food Renegade

According to Wisconsin Judge Patrick J. Fiedler, you do not have a fundamental right to consume the food you grow or own or raise. The Farm To Consumer Legal Defense Fund, the pioneers in defending food sovereignty and freedom, recently argued before Judge Fiedler that you and I have a constitutional right to consume the foods of our choice. Judge Fiedler saw no merit to the argument and ruled against the FTCLDF.

War On Terror Or War On Freedom?

War On Terror Or War On Freedom?:

A recent major investigative report by the Los Angeles Times sheds light on what all this “war on terror” is actually costing–and actually accomplishing. According to the report, “A decade after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, federal and state governments are spending about $75 billion a year on domestic security, setting up sophisticated radio networks, upgrading emergency medical response equipment, installing surveillance cameras and bombproof walls, and outfitting airport screeners to detect an ever-evolving list of mobile explosives.

“But how effective has that 10-year spending spree been?

“‘The number of people worldwide who are killed by Muslim-type terrorists, Al Qaeda wannabes, is maybe a few hundred outside of war zones. It’s basically the same number of people who die drowning in the bathtub each year,’ said John Mueller, an Ohio State University professor who has written extensively about the balance between threat and expenditures in fighting terrorism.”

The LA Times report goes on to say, “Like the military-industrial complex that became a permanent and powerful part of the American landscape during the Cold War, the vast network of Homeland Security spyware, concrete barricades and high-tech identity screening is here to stay. The Department of Homeland Security, a collection of agencies ranging from border control to airport security sewn quickly together after Sept. 11, is the third-largest Cabinet department and–with almost no lawmaker willing to render the U.S. less prepared for a terrorist attack–one of those least to fall victim to budget cuts.

“The expensive and time-consuming screening now routine for passengers at airport boarding gates has detected plenty of knives, loaded guns and other contraband, but it has never identified a terrorist who was about to board a plane. Only 14 Americans have died in about three dozen instances of Islamic extremist terrorist plots targeted at the U.S. outside war zones since 2001–most of them involving one or two home-grown plotters.”

The report also notes, “Large sums of Homeland Security money, critics complain, have been propelled by pork barrel politics into the backyards of the congressionally connected.”

Rep. Paul Broun Introduces Concealed Carry Recognition Bill

Rep. Paul Broun Introduces Concealed Carry Recognition Bill:


09-23-2011 • gunowners.org

Pro-gun champion Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) recently introduced a concealed carry recognition bill, H.R. 2900, that allows law-abiding citizens who can legally carry concealed in their home state to carry all across the country, as well.

Titled “The Secure Access to Firearms Enhancement (SAFE) Act,” this legislation recognizes that constitutional rights do not become null and void at the state line.

And, most importantly, Rep. Broun’s bill is “constitutional carry” friendly. The SAFE Act recognizes that while CCW permits are the “norm” in most states, constitutional carry is the ideal.

For more than twenty years, Gun Owners of America has pushed constitutional carry (also known as Vermont-style carry) at the state level. Such legislation recognizes the right to carry without having to first get the government's permission.

Climategate: Scientists charge World Atlas ice loss claim vastly exaggerated

Climategate: Scientists charge World Atlas ice loss claim vastly exaggerated:

12-22-2011 • Terrence Aym
Climate scientists are angry and disgusted and some have had enough of ongoing scientific fraud. The latest culprit they're exposing is the formerly credible Times Atlas of the World published by HarperCollins. Despite hucksters like Al Gore hawking man-made global warming to trick an uninformed public into lining his—and other's—pockets with ill-gotten gain, there is no consensus that human activity and technology has affected the climate in any significant way. Respected scientists and Nobel laureates are now openly blasting the data compiled and massaged by researchers who desperately kept the fraud alive in a bid to squeeze more government grants from the West. In the process they created industries consumers didn't want, forced propaganda on elementary schoolchildren, and created thousands of pieces of legislation inhibiting the growth of economies and the liberties of millions.

Articles Top 10 Pot Studies Government Wished it Had Never Funded

An advertising campaign from the Marijuana Policy Project, the largest marijuana policy reform organization in the U.S., is blanketing airwaves with the message that the U.S. government's own research contradicts its anti-marijuana propaganda. "Warning! The government doesn't want you to hear this ad!" the spot begins, "because they're embarrassed they funded research indicating marijuana doesn't cause lung cancer, and might even prevent cancer." The ad began airing on 141 stations nationwide on September 5, 2006.

"The U.S. government's own research directly contradicts the blatantly false information about marijuana that the government has been issuing for the last three decades," said Marijuana Policy Project Executive Director Rob Kampia. "The drug czar's office is still publishing ads and 'fact sheets' suggesting that marijuana causes cancer, even though new research financed by the National Institute on Drug Abuse shows no link between marijuana use and cancer. In fact, the marijuana smokers in the study had a lower rate of lung cancer than the non-smokers."

"In 1999, the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine released a White House-commissioned report concluding that marijuana is useful in treating nausea, appetite loss, pain, and anxiety. When the findings weren’t what the federal government had wanted, they simply ignored them and continued to claim that marijuana has no medical use," Kampia continued. "And on Monday, the Government Accountability Office revealed that the Office of National Drug Control Policy has been ignoring a body of evidence that found the Anti-Drug Youth Media Campaign to be a complete failure. The purpose of our new radio ad is to highlight the federal government's disregard of its own research in order to continue its unjust war on marijuana users, including the seriously ill."

Obama-Style Deficit Reduction - by Stephen Lendman

On September 8, Obama's "American Jobs Act" address to Congress was a thinly veiled campaign speech. More on it below.

On September 19 came Act Two to enlist support for "Living Within Our Means and Investing in Our Future" by cutting $4 trillion over 10 years (for starters with more to come) from Medicare, Medicaid, public pensions, veterans' benefits, unemployment insurance, the US Postal Service, and other social benefits.

It's part of a bipartisan plan to destroy America's middle class, good-paying jobs and benefits, the dream of homeownership for millions, and a nation once fit to live in but no longer.

Economist and regular Progressive Radio New Hour contributor Jack Rasmus commented on the minimum $4 trillion deficit reduction plan, saying:

It's "not only the consensus deficit target but also the amount by which taxes have been cut for the rich and corporations."

Moreover, it equals the amount banks and other large corporations "have been hoarding in cash since the bailouts," instead of using it for economic growth and job creation.

In addition, out-of-control war spending and bailouts applied productively would make austerity cuts unnecessary.

"Who's going to pay the next $4 trillion (and more trillions after that)....is the central issue," according to ruling elites?

"It's not jobs (not created), foreclosures, broke states and cities, students indentured for life, or seniors struggling to stay alive."
