I have been known to cast a bullet on the back porch but most of the bullet casting takes place in the shed during the cooler months. That is usually a flurry of 2-3 days casting that nets several thousand, all I will need for months ahead.

SS the news is not for finding out the truth, it is for seeing the trends of what they intend to do to us next.

Isolating yourself only means that you do not discover you are screwed until it is too late to prepare for the latest insanity.

I can not stomach the TV media, so I get my news from what used to be the old national reporting systems and a few sources that keep track of specific points of interest to me, mostly on the computer.

One party gaining power over another? What is their normal agenda? How will it affect prices at the counter or petrol pump? How do they interpret private property rights? What is their attitude on immigration? Are they prone to sudden and radical passage of legislation that may affect your ability to buy a bag of fertilizer?

Over here they are in a push to stop people from raising and selling livestock for consumption privately. A farmer can no longer raise, slaughter, process and sell his own livestock. It must have federal inspection.

Lots of stabbings being reported? There is a new knife law planned.

Someone poisoned by home canned food? Bottles and lids are going to get scarce.

Four or five traffic accidents on a corner? A CCTV camera is coming your way.

I noticed a couple of weeks ago that there were a series of reports concerning "electric bikes" involved in accidents in your urban areas. Several deaths were stressed. This week I noted a push for licensing and taxing E-bikes.

Over here we are constantly plagued with laws invented as "regulation" rather than legislation. Agencies will simply invent a law and start enforcement of it unknown to the public with no debate or public vote or a secret public discussion held and not announced. Suddenly folks are going to jail, being cited and fined, and their property restricted, for breaking laws no one ever knew existed except for a small notice spoken on the news and indicated no where else.

That is especially true regarding firearms over here. Our regulating agency OFTEN and purposely changes the regulations with no public announcement in order to criminalize people for owning something that was legal when they bought it, but will now get them 10 years in prison.

Don't let the B@$tards sneak up on you!
