This Is My Rifle: The Story of a Middle Class Rebel

Posted by Jason James on 05/09/12 | Filed under Features, This Is My Rifle, Politics, Opinion

Recently somebody asked me why I'm so concerned with American politics and the negative impact of western financial interest and corporate influence on the rest of the world.

This Is My Rifle: Fueling the Flames of Racial Warfare

Posted by Jason James on 04/18/12 | Filed under Features, This Is My Rifle

We're supposed hate each other and this particular event was a great way to raise some old demons. The world is far from a perfect place and inside all of us lies some form of prejudice. The only question I ask is, will we manage to pull ourselves away from it before it destroys us? See more...

Posted by Jason James on 03/21/12 | Filed under Features, This Is My Rifle

From the moment I heard the tag line to the finely tuned propaganda piece, "KONY 2012", I knew something seriously awful was amiss.

Posted by Jason James on 02/15/12 | Filed under Features, This Is My Rifle

When I first started reading the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 four weeks ago, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.
