Call To Action: Vehicle Decals And Licenses In Iraq

     Hey folks, get the word out on this.  If you are having problems getting your vehicles credentialed for work in Iraq, then tell your company that traveling outside the wire is a no go.  The reason for that is if you are pulled over by the Iraqis and you do not have that […]

Call To Action: Free South African Security Contractor Philip Young From Afghan Prison!!!

     One operator said Phil Young had shot the Afghan guard in order to stop the bloodbath. According to the operator, the dead man’s brother was well-known in Taliban ranks. His family lived in a Taliban stronghold on the Pakistani border.    
     Trouble maker. The guard had apparently been a troublemaker for some time […]

Call To Action: Help iCasualties.org Update Their Statistics On Contractors

     Ok, this pisses me off.  I totally respect what Michael White has done over the years as far as counting the deaths in this war. But to depend on a hobbyist to keep this record as to whom has died is not right, and his list is not complete.  This should be a […]

Call To Action: Give Your Input On What Is ‘Inherently Governmental’

     This is a simple one.  If you think your work as a security contractor overseas is not an ‘inherently governmental’ job, then let these folks know what you think.  There is little consensus going on with this debate, and I think the one voice that is missing in this discussion are the guys […]

Call To Action: Save Australian Security Contractor Robert Langdon From Execution In Afghanistan!

   I like to do what I can to support my fellow contractors out there, and Robert Langdon is one guy that needs our support.  He is a former Four Horsemen International contractor and he was sentenced to death by hanging in Afghanistan for an alleged murder. I will not pass judgement on what happened, because I was […]

Call To Action: Everybody Draw Mohammad Day–May 20th!

   The drawing below that Lars Vilks did, as well as the Mohammad in a bear suit that the guys at South Park/Comedy Central put together, are two prime examples of the kind of stuff that really winds up these extremists.  What’s better, is now there is a holiday being promoted on Facebook that declares May 20th […]

Call To Action: The 2010 Warrior Pride Ride

   This is a cool project that Jake is working on, and I figured I would do a little promoting for it.  Little fundraiser projects like this can be immensely helpful to the Wounded Warrior Project or similar foundations.  Especially if guys and gals started their own little fundraisers in their towns, and then you […]

Call To Action: The Great Guns and Coffee Movement Of 2010

   Now this is funny.  The goal here is to create a counter movement to the anti-gun lobby and the latest Brady* move about forcing Starbucks to kick out gun carrying customers that frequent their shops.  Hopefully this movement will force Starbucks to take a courageous stand in support of the Second Amendment, and not […]
