Texas Bullion Depository Open for Business

Thursday, June 7, 2018

The Texas Bullion Depository officially opened for business this week. The creation of the facility represents a power-shift away from the federal government, and sets the foundation to undermine the Federal Reserve’s monopoly on money.

*** begin quote ***

The Texas Bullion Depository will create a mechanism to challenge the federal government’s monopoly on money and provides a blueprint for other states to follow. If the majority of states controlled their own supply of gold, and people began using precious metals in daily transactions, it could conceivably make the Federal Reserve completely irrelevant.

*** end quote ***

That’s going to take some time, but it becomes an interesting way create a “store of value”.

Reason #6831 Why Gun Registration Is Evil – Bearing Arms

Wednesday, June 6, 2018

There’s a saying that ignorance of the law is no defense, which I get. I really do.Yet at some point, there has to be a line. If men and women can be arrested when they’re clearly trying to not break the law, then what hope does any law-abiding citizen have? There’s a theory that the average person goes through life committing something like three felonies per day. I don’t know how accurate that is, but I have little difficulty believing that we break laws all the time without realizing it.

“If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him.” —Cardinal Richelieu

Same thing with all the gun laws.  The Constitution (of no account) is specifically clear.  The right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

How is this not “infringement”?

Veterans’ Group Says ‘No’ to Emmy for PBS Vietnam War Series – Antiwar.com Original

Saturday, June 2, 2018

VFP concludes its ad, just above an iconic photograph of protesting G.I.s holding a banner emblazoned with, “We won’t fight another rich man’s war,” by saying that if the Burns/Novick series is “crowned with an Emmy, this defective history of the Vietnam era will become required viewing for generations of young Americans – a seductive, but false, interpretation of events.”

Seems like a valid criticism of the politicians that got us into the mess and the terrible toll in human lives it took and is taking.  Unfortunately, most get their news and history from the media so it’s got to be brutally correct.

Vin Suprynowicz » Blog Archive » On Reporters Who Ask No (Unapproved) Questions

Friday, June 1, 2018

Yet you’ll remember back when Hillary collapsed and had to be thrown bodily into her van at the World Trade Center memorial observances in Manhattan on Sept. 11, 2016, she and her doctor claimed she had “pneumonia” — “pneumonia” which was curiously all better when she emerged from her daughter’s apartment to greet the gathered folk out on the sidewalk about an hour later.Doctors report someone who has pneumonia so severe as to cause a complete fainting collapse do not “get all better” within an hour.

Also, Donald Trump (who — contrary to most reporting — often initially says a lot less than he really knows) commented that Hillary would show up for the presidential debates all buzzing with energy, but less than two hours later would need help shuffling into her van — kind of like someone who was being “juiced up” for special occasions.

Yet reporters — whose first job is to be curious — shrieked that it was (and apparently remains, to this day) completely out-of-line to challenge the “official version” on Hillary’s health, that only black helicopter Conspiracy Nuts would visit the Vidzette Web site and listen to Dr. Ted Noel explain that Hillary Clinton was showing every sign of the mood-and energy-swings of a patient on L-Dopa therapy (which can create a high like cocaine, followed by a serious slump) for advanced Parkinson’s Disease.

Often wonder of the truth of that “Hilary has Parkinson’s” story?

The Manchester bomber was enabled by the British government, by Patrick Cockburn – The Unz Review

Monday, May 28, 2018

Salman Abedi was responsible for what he did, but he could not have killed 22 people and maimed another 139 others, half of them children, if the British government had not acted as it did in Libya in 2011. And its responsibility goes well beyond its disastrous policy of joining the Libyan civil war, overthrowing Gaddafi and replacing him with warring tribes and militias.
