Gun Control Goes to Court
Guest Opportunity: Noel Flasterstein - Gun Rights Expert
Gun control restrictions everywhere could be alleviated following a victory in Florida, should Gun Rights Activists challenge their states status quo. This could set the bar for unprecedented cases all over the United States.
Florida has passed several recent pieces of legislation that alleviate restrictions on gun ownership. Even with eased restrictions, Florida's latest crime statistics show a significant decrease in overall crime rates. Arguments for gun control take a hit when the statistics show that things are improving without it. Removal of liberty without cause should never be an option.

Guest Opportunity: Malcolm Out Loud, National News and Political Commentator
Malcolm has been seen on FOX News and CNN. He's witty, articulate, controversial and is NO HOLDS BARRED!
So many of us are complaining that American companies are shipping jobs overseas to find cheaper labor. American institutions like Apple, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, and Nike are betraying us exporting American jobs while raising prices despite the savings of their cheap foreign workforce. The question is: are we being hypocrites for buying these goods for cheap? Or should we apply pressure and even boycott U.S. Firms that outsource?
These companies need to be help accountable for abandoning this great nation. The people need to speak with their wallets and boycott companies who ship American jobs overseas. To make it worse, the foreign workers that get these jobs frequently suffer from substandard working conditions, poverty level pay and subhuman treatment.
