TS Gun Show Pretty Much A Bust

Posted on April 20, 2008 - Filed Under Fatherhood, Living Free | Leave a Comment

Yesterday I took Z to her first gun show. I don’t know what I was expecting, but somehow it was still disappointing.

I had hoped to find some fellow freedom lovers at the gun show. At minimum some literature I could study and use to educate Z on the true meaning of freedom. No such luck. In fact, I’d love to show y’all some pics of the event, but if you check the giant rules sign they had posted out front you’ll…

It was only there, in my senior year, that…

I’ve been a user and fan of eBay since discovering it in 1997. eBay is the glowing example of what a free market could actually achieve. Sure, eBay’s not an entirely free market, but it’s as close as anything else happening on a large scale. The government has made several attempts at controlling eBay, some successful, many not, but the latest is one of the most onerous. From Philadelphia’s The Bulletin-

My Personal Firearms Dilemma

Posted on October 12, 2007 - Filed Under Fatherhood, Shopping | Leave a Comment

I always have to laugh when I hear people describe anarchists as violent. I’ve been very much anti-gun since late in my high school years. That doesn’t mean I’m, in any way, pro-gun control, just that I don’t personally like guns. I believe, absolutely, in every person’s right to defend themselves, their family, and their property. If they feel that defense requires a firearm then I’m all for it. But, despite my personal feelings, I’ve been thinking of training Z…
