Race to the 51st State: Puerto Rico vs. D.C. vs. Everywhere Else
January 20th (San Juan, Puerto Rico) – Since the time of Christopher Columbus, the island-territory now known as Puerto Rico has never been independent and free.

Yet, perhaps it is different this time and Puerto Rico really will finally become a State, or sail off as its own sovereign nation.

The Rogue Scribe's Mental Assessment for Firearm Ownership
More shootings this week in the US. Is anyone shocked anymore? In previous posts, I've gone after broken men who clearly need more than just mental and emotional help. I doubt many sane people will disagree on that point.
