My goal in the essay is to use a well-known historical precedent to illustrate the U.S. Federal government’s untenable indebtedness predicament. Spain, 1500-1590 In 1500, the New World had just recently been discovered, and Spain had just recently forced the Moorish invaders from the Iberian Peninsula. Expanding their army, expanding their navy, and the lengthy campaign to kick out the Moors had been expensive for the Spanish crown. They also needed to maintain a large army to keep the Islamic North Africans from returning. There were also the expenses of building and supplying a large fleet of ships, in the…

This story begins in the wild, unforgiving mountains of Montana.In September of 2014, 38-year-old Aaron Hedges set out with friends for a weeklong elk hunt in the Crazy Mountains. But when he left camp to retrieve supplies from a nearby cache, those friends never saw him again.But instead of searching for him, they went home–right as a snowstorm hit.

Several years ago, I sat down to dinner at a high-end restaurant in Indianapolis while attending the Archery Trade Association Show. Seated next to me was a fellow who has made a name for himself as a hardcore, backcountry western hunter. He has earned his reputation, and then some, so I thought it would be an interesting conversation.It was, until we got on the topic of whitetails. Almost as soon as our chat drifted from the mountains to middle America, he said that he didn’t think we needed anyone filming whitetail hunts because they were all the same, and they…

The National Shooting Sport Foundation (NSSF) estimates the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) completed 530,156 background checks related to firearms for the week leading up to and including Black Friday—one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

FBI’s NICS system processed 165,183 names—including those who underwent background checks for other purposes related to firearms, such as approvals for concealed carry permits—on Black Friday alone. The figure pales in comparison to the top…

Since I began my dedicated exploration of the American handgun marketplace years ago, things have changed. What was once a much more diverse selection of action types, sizes, frame materials and calibers seems to have been washed away by a tidal wave of compact, striker-fired, polymer-framed semi-automatics chambered in 9 mm. These are certainly useful defensive pistols with dozens of configurations from a variety of manufacturers. But it seems like what was true for Ford’s Model T back in 1914 is now the case for modern handgun fans. You can have any color you want, just as long as it’s…

You catch these and some of these bulls, I mean big, like imagine a bucking bull like as bigger, not bigger, if not bigger than that bison out there sharp porn’s never seen a human.
