Being that Taiwan is on the verge of being invaded by communist China, it would make sense to arm every citizen in the country to help defend their island. The Chinese communist soldiers coming to invade them would get a rude awakening if all the civilians had guns pointing at them. I think it is…
In Support of the Right to Bear Arms & the AR15
There was a time when American colonists were loyal British subjects. But the relationship with a far-off king and Parliament deteriorated eventually, resulting in the estranged colonists listing their grievances in a Declaration of Independence. Hostilities broke out into open warfare when British troops marched on Concord to disarm the upstart colonists by confiscating their…
Can We Keep Our Republic?
Most of us have heard of this anecdote. After the Constitutional Convention of 1787, a lady reportedly asked Ben Franklin whether we had gotten a republic or a monarchy, to which Franklin replied, “A republic if you can keep it.” At this time in our history, I think we are in grave danger of losing…
LeBron James Incites Violence
LeBron James interjected racism when he posted an irresponsible, dangerous tweet to millions of followers on Twitter before he had all the facts. James identified the officer involved in the Columbus, Ohio, police shooting with the officer’s image saying, “YOU’RE NEXT #ACCOUNTABILITY.” James incited violence against the police officer. James was commenting on the terrible…
Mind & Body Section, April 21–27, 2021
When I received a sample of The Epoch Times, my conclusion was that the Times was a different kind of newspaper. So, I subscribed. Thus far, my conclusion is that the Times is, indeed, a different kind of newspaper. I also currently subscribed to The Wall Street Journal. And the Times is a welcome respite…
Burma Parcel Bomb Blasts Kill 5 Including Ousted Lawmaker—Media
Blasts from at least one parcel bomb in Burma (also known as Myanmar) have killed five people, including an ousted lawmaker and three police officers who had joined a civil disobedience movement opposing military rule, media reported on Tuesday. Since the elected government led by Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi was overthrown in a…
Renaming San Francisco Schools
I was very encouraged by Judge (retired) Quentin Kopp’s article about renaming San Francisco schools [“Recall, Rescind, and Recapitulate in San Francisco,” published April 7 in the Northwest edition]. The San Francisco School Board had decided to strip public schools of the names of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Muir, Father Serra, Paul Revere, Francis…
‘The Fall of Chile’ by Stephen Moore
While Mr. Moore’s commentary on the rise and fall of the economic stability of Chile [“The Fall of Chile Is a Warning to America, published March 31, 2021] has some salient points, he neglects to mention a few of the facts that have had a profound and long-lasting impact on Chileans. In 1969, Salvador Allende…
Where Have All the Soldiers Gone?
Where Have All The Soldiers Gone?” A line, of course, from Peter, Paul, and Mary’s iconic song from the ’60s. Some might remember the words and music. If not, dig deeper into the memory bank and try, “Hell No, We Won’t Go.” These were both products of the Vietnam War era, both having a tremendous…
What Can We Do?
Take full responsibility for ourselves and our families. No excuses. Resist asking the government for help, whether it is a grant, subsidy, waiver, exception as special privileges for our “special interests.” Write letters to news editors, our local legislatures, and Congress. Subscribe to The Epoch Times for excellent reporting, which includes a section clearly labeled…
