The case for making McHenry County a sanctuary for ARs

By PETER SUFFIELD

A primary aim of the recently passed HB5471 Protect Illinois Communities Act law is to force gun manufacturers out of business, as well as those selling these rifles at local gun shops. And if these independent sellers of firearms go out of business, it will have a detrimental effect on the local tax base while contributing to local job loss.

The Illinois Democratic Party is pushing this agenda as part of their campaign to eliminate the 2nd amendment of the Constitution. They can’t do this head on, so they focus on one segment of the issue at a time, while intending to chip away at the right to bear arms until it no longer exists. Read More...




Election Integrity Under Attack

Election integrity in distress under years of worsening lies and manipulation

Visibility of scandals depends on which side is in the crosshairs

What we’ve learned over the course of the last 13 years, at least, is that a scandal, whether true or false, only needs to be suppressed (or propped up) long enough to make a difference at the polls. Harry Reid lied about Mitt Romney’s taxes but, after the election was over, proudly admitted that he lied. The Russian Collusion (now proven to be a complete hoax) consumed the Trump administration for 2-1/2 years and helped the Democrats take the House. Read More...

They call themselves the champions of black, brown, feminists and LGBTQs - but they're not. Their ‘solutions’ are superficial and irrational, at best. They don't care about any of those people, at least not beyond what they can get out of them. What they care about is wealth and power, and they're good at it.

They've created the fissure where free speech is no longer secure; as numerous younger Americans have said to me, "You shouldn't be allowed to say things that offend people." They're openly and tirelessly working to eliminate the Right to Bear Arms - well, at least for the 'little people,' like you and me. But criminals are unaffected. Read More...




Race Wars, Deviant Sex Ed, and Gun Grabs...Oh My!

You can't control violence by taking a single form of weaponry from citizens. The violent actor will just find another means of carrying out violence. Meanwhile Democrats are willing to take away the rights of law-abiding citizens, including the ability to protect themselves, while most government officials are given the green light to carry, and/or hire private armed security. That's the epitome of Government Manufactured Disparity - giving violent offenders a leg up!

Democrats have taken their War on Women to new heights - first they took away actual females' lifelong dreams of sport competition and scholarships, then they took names like 'Mother' and 'Woman' away, Hell, a new Democrat Supreme Court Justice can't even DEFINE the term "woman", and she is one!
