Non-lethal
self defense weapons-Gov’t has no moral right to ban them
"Governments,
whatever their pretensions otherwise, try to preserve themselves by holding the
individual down ... Government itself, indeed, may be reasonably defined as a
conspiracy against him. Its one permanent aim, whatever its form, is to hobble
him sufficiently to maintain itself."
-- H. L. Mencken

Be
Prepared For Anything With Knives And Tools
Being out in the open or in the
middle of nowhere in the wilderness can be an exhilarating time and challenge.
While the desire to get back to nature and behave in a manner that can be
commonly lost these days, it is still important to utilize a number of tools or
accessories that can help people out. It would defeat the purpose to utilize
modern technology and anyway, a lot of modern gadgets that rely on mobile signals would be of no benefit at all depending on your
whereabouts.
However, the benefits of carrying
knives and tools are well known and these should be an essential purchase for
anyone looking to spend time in the wilderness. The level of assistance and
support that is provided by these tools is absolutely crucial and they can
easily make the difference in surviving the challenge or having to bow out
meekly. In more serious cases, the benefit of proper bushcraft knives
& tools can often save a
person from suffering serious injury or worse. Basic knifes and tools may not
seem like the biggest asset a person can have but in the jungle or out in the
wild, they could be the difference between life or death.
Knives are a sharp
solution
A
basic example would be when it comes to getting food. Being able to cut down
berries or fruit from trees becomes an awful lot easier with a proper knife and
then slicing open or cutting into these fruits can also be made easier by
having access to a sharp and reliable knife. The same can be said for hacking
your way through undergrowth or vines. Conserving energy is an important part
of the challenge when being out in the wild and properly utilizing tools gives
you a great level of support while managing to make your way safely through to
your destination.
Cutting
rope is also an incredibly common part of safety and survival and this is
another area where having access to a reliable knife can make all the
difference. Too much time can be wasted in slicing ropes or any other
connecting wires or vines and if you are in the middle of nowhere, time is
often of the essence. With darkness descending, there is no time to waste
because people need to be safe and secure before the coldness of the evening
becomes too much. Even if people intend on carrying out survival trips with
very little help or modern equipment, the presence of a sharp and reliable
knife or tool will provide a lot of comfort for people. The peace of mind that
comes from knowing this type of tool is in your equipment bag or in a pocket
can help people to face up to big challenges.
It
is always important to ensure that these blades and tools are kept safe and
secure, which is why choosing from the modern range is a smart choice too.
Safety is paramount in these products and even if you are focusing on other
tasks, there is nothing to worry about with respect to the knife in your
pocket.

The
Nanny State-We
love our government
The IRS has
mastered the art of breaking their own laws, one case in particular; using
banks to launder and then steal disabled veterans’ disability checks.
The Veterans Disability Act of 2010 is a Federal law which exempts VA disability from withholding of any sort. Actually, existing code USC, Title 38, §5301 already protected VA disability from withholding, but this provision was re-iterated and included in the newer legislation of 2010, because too many civil court judges were legislating from the bench and including veterans’ disability monies as earned income and granting it to ex-spouses (men and women) in divorce proceedings, at times, leaving disabled veterans without any safety net for self-care.
Currently in America, twenty two veterans a day are committing suicide. One of the biggest contributors to the suicide epidemic is our veterans’ inability to find suitable work after serving and the inability to take care of themselves and their families financially. This is why VA disability is sacred- except in the eyes of the IRS. Too many disabled veterans in the U.S. are just a disability check away from being on the street and joining the already nearly 70,000 homeless veterans in America.
If you are a veteran receiving disability from the VA,
and you are having it garnished, withheld, or having a lien placed upon it for
any reason, please contact the entity who is withholding, garnishing, or who
has placed the lien, and reference the federal code stated earlier in this
article. You stood up for the rights of all people of a great nation in combat,
but unfortunately, you must continue to stand up for yourselves to ensure that
the promises of being taken care of upon your return are kept. But you can do
it, because you are a warrior, and that’s what warriors do.

The
Parting Thought: do you need permission to defend yourself?
Government has no right or moral authority to ban non-lethal self defense weapons
A lot of women in Michigan get raped or sexually
assaulted on or near college campuses. They
are not allowed to defend themselves with non-lethal self defense tools.
A few "anti-citizen" states and cities are restricting / limiting / banning / infringing self defense by even non-lethal means. Owning a stun gun or Taser is a crime in seven states and several cities. Carrying irritant sprays, such as pepper spray or Mace, is probably illegal in several jurisdictions. Even possessing irritant sprays at home is illegal in Massachusetts if you’re not a citizen.
My friends carry MACE which is illegal in New York, Chicago and all of Michigan. Chicago and New York have very strict gun laws. The average citizen cannot get a permit to carry a pistol unless they are well connected to the politburo and/or are willing to shell out a lot of cash to obtain the “necessary government permissions.”
