The U.S. Supreme Court is vacating a lower court’s finding that a stun gun was not protected by the Second Amendment as a valid weapon for self-defense.

The report begins with the article’s most important piece of news: “Nearly 4,000 British youngsters have shotgun licences.” The exact number is 3,982—a full .03% of the country’s under-18 population. Terrifying.

Long term food storage is a fairly complex subject. All food eventually goes bad, so whatever we do to extend that time as long as possible, you have to think about it in those terms. Some foods, like rice, beans, grains, and even flour, in a proper container and with proper precautions, all covered in prior articles, will last up to 20 years.

I personally believe that in the grand game of extend and pretend musical chairs, the music has stopped, but you just never know. This could all burn down this month, or it could be years ahead. If you have a free or cheap source of meat, fish, or other high density protein, home canning is something you should consider.
