This is all conducted completely outside the protection of law, with no jury, no trial, no legal representation and not even any requirement that the government produce evidence against the accused. It is a system of outright government tyranny against the American people, and it effectively nullifies the Bill of Rights....[full story]

Irony, or does the left hand not know what the right is doing?
The Endangered Henslow's Sparrow (Ammodramus henslowii) is one of the rarest birds in Ontario.

For years, a breeding population of this tiny sparrow has persisted in upper New York State, not far from Prince Edward County, near the east end of Lake Ontario. The New York population could well be the “source” population for re-colonization of nearby areas like Prince Edward County....[full story]
