Looking Back at Hurricane Florence
An emergency is the last time you want the government interfering with your Second Amendment rights. However, that’s exactly what the town of Leland, North Carolina tried to do during Hurricane Florence.

Voter Migration and What it Means to Your Family
With November approaching fast, it would pay to reread this piece I wrote on June 5, 2018 highlighting some knowledge shared by Joel Kotkin and Wendell Cox on voter migration. Who needs to redraw state lines when states can be gutted from the inside out? That’s exactly what’s happening across the country to blue states […]
