Media Outlet Afraid of the Online Mob Apologizes in Amusing Headline for Reporting on Biden CorruptionBusiness Insider decided to finally do a piece on the Hunter Biden scandal but equivocated all over the place trying to appease the leftist mob, disparage Trump, and dump on Fox News while minimally reporting on the corruption.

A cowardly kind of genuflection necessary to appease readership. Instead of just focusing the facts and th... read more

"Here And Now...""Someday stars will wind down or blow up. Someday death will cover us all like the water of a lake and perhaps nothing will ever come to the surface to show that we were ever there. But we WERE there, and during the time we lived, we were alive. That's the truth - what is, what was, what will be - not what could be, what should have been, what never can be." - Orson Scott Card "Now the voices and the sound of movement were gone, and the stream could be heard running quietly under its banks.

Is the Glock 20 the Best Full-Size Pistol Out There?*Richard Douglas* *Guns, * Is it really the best bang for your buck or just another gun going to the wayside? The 10mm round can be somewhat of an unknown for new or casual shooters. It’s a little more “exotic” to those accustomed to the typical 9mm and .45 ACP cartridges. I don’t really even have many 10mm firearms lying around my safe. But what is it? Consider it the bigger, badder version of a .40 S&W. But that doesn’t necessarily mean it's better. Whichever way you go, Glock has you covered. For now, I’m focused on one specific model: the Glock 20, a full-size 10mm pistol. I... read more
