What's it like to fire a Daisy BB gun? It's an experience I'll never forget. Everybody knows BB guns are scary looking and ought to be banned, but I thought I would try to shoot one without any preconceived notions. What I encountered changed me forever. I took a deep breath and determined to enter a Wal-Mart. A "greeter" met me with, "Howdy, welcome to Wal-Mart." I'm from the north. We don't say "Howdy". I sneer back at the microaggression and strain to hold back tears of rage. Barely controlling myself, I asked where I could find a BB gun....

COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America. ABBOTT: Good subject. Terrible times. It's 5.6%. COSTELLO: That many people are out of work? ABBOTT: No, that's 23%.

COSTELLO: WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 5.6% or 23%? ABBOTT: 5.6% are unemployed. 23% are out of work. COSTELLO: If you are out of work you are unemployed. ABBOTT: No, Obama said you can't count the "Out of Work" as the unemployed....

Some commuters got some rather strange traffic tips earlier this week in Ajax. Whitby Coun. Elizabeth Roy snapped photos of these “rogue” road signs, one wishing drivers a “not so nice” morning while another warned of some strong atmospheric disturbances. Durham Region officials say someone got access to the construction sign’s controls on Westney Road and changed the message sometime during the night. The messages were removed later that morning.

WASHINGTON — The US Army’s ongoing efforts to be more open and accepting has expanded this week to include another historically marginalized group: Furries. According to sources close to acting Army Secretary John McHugh, the Army will soon announce a set of uniform accommodations for these soldiers, who fetishize animal costumes. “We are committed to allowing these people to follow their religion or their hearts or the voices in their fillings, or whatever the hell it is that drives them to dress and act this way,” said the source, who requested anonymity on the grounds that he didn’t want his...

How about a plate of tacos with a side order of fat lip and a nice, cool can of beatdown? That’s exactly what some diners at Taqueria El Paisano Mexican Restaurant in northwest Dallas got over the weekend. According to Eater.com, a brawl broke out at around 2:30 a.m. Saturday that ended up in punches being landed, hair being pulled, chairs being thrown, and a five-minute video that’s gone viral, logging more than 1.7 million views.

ou may not have noticed but our sun has gone as blank as a cue ball. As in, it’s lost its spots. According to scientists, this unsettling phenomenon is a sign we are heading for a mini ice age. Meteorologist and renowned sun-watcher Paul Dorian raised the alarm in his latest report, which has sparked a mild panic about an impending “Game of Thrones”-style winter not seen since the 17th century.

Mt. McKinley National Park: This is a very sad story about a formerly well-balanced wild bear. Everybody should heed the warnings not to feed wildlife because they become dependent and don't forage for themselves any longer. It is such a tragedy to see what has been done to our country's wildlife. The U.S. Forest Service photo below captures a disturbing trend that is beginning to affect U.S. wildlife. Animals that formerly were self-sufficient are now showing signs of belonging to the Democrat Party. They have apparently learned to just sit and wait for the government to step in and provide...

Leftists hate the Second Amendment. They’re no longer hiding it. But they’re going to have a tough time just writing it out of existence. Therefore they’re attempting to dismantle it piece by piece, using this favorite talking point: the Amendment is for the militia and the militia only. Except… no. Learn something below… <()_a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MW_noXjj6w8">

It’s appalling. It’s sickening. It’s racist. It’s the pool safety poster from the American Red Cross. “Don’t look directly at it,” Co-host Pat Gray warned. An outdated poster intended to inform children about pool safety has at long last been called out by the PC police. “Thankfully some parent found and saw this . . . not at one, but at two separate pools,” Co-host Stu Burguiere said. The poster depicts children of different colors around and in a local pool, doing things that are either deemed “cool” or “not cool.”

The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II is a legendary aircraft — an icon of the Vietnam War and the archetype of the third-generation jet fighter designs that entered service in the 1960s. More than 5,000 of these heavy supersonic fighters were built, and hundreds continue to serve and even see combat in several air forces today. But the Phantom’s record in air-to-air combat over Vietnam — especially when compared to its successor, the F-15 Eagle, which has never been shot down in air-to-air combat — has left it with a reputation of being a clumsy bruiser reliant on brute engine power and obsolete weapons technology.
