This week’s prize is the DVD “You May Not Take Our Guns” and the booklet “The Second Amendment” by David Barton.
Presently located in Geneseo, Illinois this firearms company took it’s name from the Massachusetts town that General George Washington himself selected in 1777 to be an armory location for the Continental Army. For the next 150 years the armory functioned as a supplier for every major American conflict as well as a think tank for new firearms concepts. One of the armory’s most well know and respected firearm was the M1 Garand, to which General George S Patton Jr. is reported as saying: “In my opinion, the M1 Rifle is the greatest battle implement ever devised”. Name this firearms company.

Congressmen Donnelly comes to Delphi!
Hundreds come for Delphi town hall
Donnelly hears mixed views from his district
Yes, the great undecided came to Delphi! Over all it was a good meeting with lots of comments and questions from both sides of the issue and the congressmen did an outstanding job in not taking a position:) If you watch the WLFI video above you will notice the huge signs just outside the fire station; they failed to mention that those “Community Organizers” were from OHIO (I watched them load up their van with Ohio plates – think they would be smart enough to rent a car with Indiana plates)!! And yes they got to make comments and ask questions – surprisingly they were for government run Healthcare:) The Good news – local Patriots were there and got to express their views to which the congressmen paid attention. I had some technical issues downloading the video last night, but hope to get that resolved tonight and have them posted by tomorrow.

History Challenge 08-24-09 The 1968 DNC
This week’s prize is the book “The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Sixties“
1968 was a tough year for many Americans with the war in Vietnam and the assassinations of both Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F Kennedy. With tensions already high, things got even more out of hand at the Democratic National Convention (August 26th thru the 29th) with a riot breaking out between antiwar protesters and the city’s police department run by mayor Richard J Daley. By the end of the convention over, 668 demonstrators had been arrested and many Americans were stunned by the images of armed conflict in the streets. Name the location of the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
