Big Bucks

Stan Divley-18pt. killed first season, Fayette County



DeWayne Cearlock, of Vandalia, IL, took this 10pt. buck with his H&R Ultra Slug 12ga. with Hornady slugs. The deer was taken on opening day of the season in Fayette County.

Jeremy Couble, 15, shot this monster in Fayette County during the first firearm season here in Illinois. I was told the green score was 235. The deer was shot with a muzzle loader.

Congratulations Jeremy.

No excuses now!

The Democrats now have the Presidency, the House and the Senate. They can no longer blame conservatives for the state of America. They have the ability to pass anything they want through Congress.

When the policies of the Democrats fail they have no one to blame. When their policies succeed they can take the credit. The only problem with this is they get to define what failure and success is.

They may deem success is taking firearms from the hands of all law abiding citizens. And we will hear them proclaim how safe we are as defenseless people die.

They may proclaim success when every citizen is taxed according to ability and paid whatever the government deems they need. Then they can buy all the votes they need. The extraordinary will stop striving for excellence and simply become the average. If they are going to receive the same compensation why would they outperform the person next to them?

We will see in the next four years.

The Battle is Coming

With Barack Hussein Obama now set to be president and a democrat majority in congress we are set for the fight of our lives.

Barack Obama has never voted against a restriction, tax, ban, or fee increase of any kind on firearms. If his idea of a massive increase on ammunition and firearms taxes is realized we may not be able to afford to hunt and shoot. If he takes the same approach to firearms he had in Illinois to Washington, we are in for trouble.

It will not be long before the old Clinton gun ban is unearthed and revised.

Worst of all is the possibility of Obama appointing several federal judges, including some to the U.S. Supreme Court. These new judges will likely sit for decades to come.
