What does adventure do to the human brain? According to the value metrics calculated from the six athletes competing in the Toyota Destination Detour challenge, adventure impacts the human brain in hugely positive ways. Completing challenges in Toyota Trucks across gorgeous California landscapes doesn’t hurt, either. In this second episode of the Toyota Destination Detour, the three teams of athletes continue their 36-hour road trip challenge across rugged terrain, each in a new Toyota truck. Team 4Runner consists of surfing pros (and father-daughter duo) Josh and Sierra Kerr, who head to the surf and sand dunes of Pismo Beach in…

In the wake of the shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island last weekend, where two students were killed and several others injured by an attacker who’s still not been identified or taken into custody, Republicans in New Hampshire say its time that lawful gun owners be able to protect themselves on college and university campuses.  State Rep. Samuel Farrington, who’s also a senior at the University of New Hampshire, unveiled his campus carry bill on Wednesday alongside Republican House leadership; an indication that the legislation will receive the support of the GOP caucus, at…

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) is back in federal court. This time, challenging one of the most extreme consequences of modern gun law: permanent disarmament over a long-past, nonviolent mistake. On December 17, SAF and several partner organizations filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in Williams v. Attorney General of the United States, a case questioning whether the federal government can strip someone of their gun rights for life based solely on a decades-old misdemeanor DUI conviction. The plaintiff, Edward Williams, was convicted of DUI more than 20 years ago. No one…

From the beginning, when the United States ruling class began its bombing campaign on “narco terrorist” civilian vessels in the Caribbean, most understood it wasn’t about drugs. The U.S. wasn’t committing war crimes in order to stop a few civilian drug smugglers from getting illicit substances into the U.S., and now, we know the truth. It’s all about “oil rights”. Since September, US forces have conducted strikes against alleged drug traffickers operating at sea, killing more than 90 people in operations targeting what Washington describes as cartel-linked vessels. Trump has also threatened to extend strikes onto Venezuelan territory, accusing Caracas…

The Supreme Court of the United States has chosen not to hear a challenge to the National Firearms Act’s restrictions on short-barreled rifles (SBRs). At issue in the case Rush v. United States is the federal government taxing and requiring registration of rifles with barrels shorter than 16 inches. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals had earlier upheld the law, saying SBRs are not “arms” covered by the Second Amendment, prompting plaintiffs to appeal in hopes the Supreme Court would consider the challenge. However, on December 15, the high court denied certiorari, leaving the ruling to stand. In its brief…

Officials in the U.S. Virgin Islands are well aware of the Department of Justice’s new lawsuit challenging many of the territory’s asinine gun laws, but so far they’re not saying much about it.  The DOJ’s lawsuit accuses the USVI of infringing on residents’ Second Amendment rights in a variety of ways; from taking a year or more to process applications for the license required to possess a firearm in the home to the warrantless searches the VIPD can conduct to determine if lawfully-owned firearms are being stored in bolted-down safes as required under territorial law. Government…

This article was originally published by Lance D. Johnson at Natural News.  For years, the public has been sold a seasonal bill of goods wrapped in a white coat and labeled “public health.” The narrative was simple, repeated like a mantra: the flu is a deadly threat, and the flu shot is your only shield. But what if the shield was made of tissue paper, and the threat was wildly exaggerated by the very institutions tasked with protecting us? A damning confluence of historical deception and alarming new data is pulling back the curtain, revealing a legacy of scientific fraud…

Australia has some of the strictest gun control laws in the entire world. These are, of course, the laws that we’ve been told we need to pass here. We hear it to some degree or another after every mass shooting. Some were even saying this after Brown, only to get shut up hard following Bondi Beach. But now, after the shooting that shattered the illusion that those laws keep people safe, we’re getting the narrative push that is required before officials can really get people behind new gun laws.They have to show that the old…

On Dec. 16 1944, German artillery opened fire on an inexperienced American division that had been at the front for less than a week. Within 72 hours, two entire regiments of the 106th Infantry Division ceased to exist. Approximately 7,000 American soldiers became prisoners of war in one of the largest mass surrenders in U.S. military history.The Golden Lions suffered one of the worst disasters of any American division in World War II, leaving the division effectively destroyed. Their history remains overshadowed by Bastogne’s dramatic siege where the 101st Airborne managed to survive against all odds. Yet German commanders later…
