    My FIL was one of the largest vegetable growers in southern NM and a very successful. In my area it was not uncommon to see large fields of onions, peppers and lettuce. That was until NAFTA passed in 1994 which resulted in most of that production shifting to Mexico where labor is cheap and...

    The root cause of this was the financial engineering of our manufacturing base by the elitist on Wall Street. They reaped trillions by selling out workers and and gutting our cities. The tools and machinery coming out of China are crap and and just wind up in the garbage when they break. Yet...

    We have a cell phone policy on the jobsite in which only those authorized by the superintendent are allowed to carry phones otherwise they are left in their vehicles.

    Frankly this will backfire on the Democrats although it will take years to undo the damage by these traitorous commie bastards. They snuck by with counting illegals in the Census which affected apportionment when nobody was paying attention. People are becoming aware of the plan and...

    Audit Finds California Has Spent $24 Billion on Homeless Programs Over Five Years and the Problem Has Only Gotten Worse!

    I wonder how many NGO's were involved with siphoning off the money and no doubt they are well connected Democrats. Much of this money gets recycled into campaigns. This is happening on the federal level as well with illegal immigration. Lots of folks getting rich of the taxpayers back. The...

    I wonder if this was done intentionally by a sailor who had it in for the Commander. I sure whoever handed him the rifle is in deep shit.

    Single shot .410 was the first shotgun I ever shot when I was very young. Have a Browning 725 .410 O/U sitting in my safe. Can't hit shit with it but fun to shoot. Remember watching American Sportsman many years ago where Kurt Gowdy was hunting quail in AZ with Andy Devine and they were...

    It's 18ga bent to a U 1" in width and provides a nice way to attach and finish expanded metal edges. Not carried by many metal suppliers and bought it online. Most expensive material in the project.

    National Vietnam Veterans Day

    Remember it well growing up. Many young men in our area went to VN, some didn't return and many of those who returned did not mentally. My best friend's uncle was KIA on his second tour. Turned 18 in '73 and still have my draft card somewhere 1A with a selective sequence number 8. Have the...
