Who Speaks for Oath Keepers?
by David Codrea
Oath Keepers David CodreaUnited States -(AmmoLand.com)- The media, as we see almost daily, has no idea how to report on Oath Keepers.
That’s due to a number of considerations, including lack of depth/ignorance on the part of reporters, personal “progressive” biases reflective of the overwhelming majority of journalists, and flat-out laziness. So using “sources” like the Southern Poverty Law Center, and parroting what they say as “authoritative” is an easy way to add descriptors to a story and not worry about how accurate the information is.
It’s not like their readers or...

The ‘Affordable Housing’ Fraud
By Thomas Sowell
Thomas SowellCalifornia -(AmmoLand.com)- Nowhere has there been so much hand-wringing over a lack of “affordable housing,” as among politicians and others in coastal California.
And nobody has done more to make housing unaffordable than those same politicians and their supporters. A recent survey showed that the average monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment in San Francisco was just over $3,500.
Some people are paying $1,800 a month just to rent a bunk bed in a San Francisco apartment. It is not just in San Francisco that putting a roof over your head can take a big chunk out of your paycheck. The whole Bay Area is like that. Thirty miles away, Palo Alto home prices are similarly unbelievable.
One house in Palo Alto, built more than 70 years ago, and just over one thousand square feet in size, was offered for sale at $1.5 million. And most asking prices are bid up...
