A Mob of More Than 600 Teens Laid Siege to a Florida Movie Theater

The Organic Prepper Apparently the Brooklyn, NY shopping center that was put “on tilt” by a horde of teenagers the day after Christmas wasn’t the only public place under attack this holiday season.

NDAA 2014 Quietly Passed the House and Senate – and It Is On the Way to Obama’s Desk

The Daily Sheeple While everyone is distracted with the holiday festivities, Congress has been hard at work, screwing us over in the name of national security. Yesterday the 2014 National Defense Authorization Act was fast-tracked through the Senate, with no time for discussion or amendments.

Why I Support Both the Right to be Gay AND Phil Robertson’s Right to Criticize It

The Organic Prepper When I first read the rant of Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson, I was offended by his crassly stated opinion on homosexuality.

The EPA Takes an Ax to Self-Sufficiency: Most Woodburning Stoves Will Soon Be Illegal

The Organic Prepper When you think of that little dream homestead in the woods, what does it include? Probably a well and septic system, a little stream bubbling nearby, a chicken coop, a sunroom for winter growing, and a cozy fire to curl up next to. When my daughter and I spent a year living in […] Continue reading →

The USDA Is Pushing Food Stamps Like a Drug Dealer at a Grade School

The Organic Prepper One in 7 Americans receives food stamps and the government wants the number to be even higher. Yes, I said higher. The USDA is soliciting people to receive food stamps in the manner of a drug dealer on a grade school playground. ”Psst – hey you! I’ve got something for you…it’s free…come […] Continue reading →

Back to School on a Budget

The Organic Prepper Back to school time means there won’t be any more daily cries of, “I’m booooooored!” It means the end of those impromptu trips to the beach or the pool.
