Take a look at this picture I saw on Facebook yesterday. Let me describe it to you. This self-proclaimed patriot, Dave Southern, ostensibly says he takes issue with flag burning. He’s crouching in front of an American flag, an AR-15 cradled in his lap. He’s wearing a tactical vest, sunglasses, a baseball cap, and appears to […]

December 20, 2013

Phil Robertson from the popular A&E show Duck Dynasty set the world ablaze this week because of his statements about homosexuals, promiscuity, and black people. His remarks concerned A&E significantly enough for them to pull him from the show indefinitely. This is what Phil Robertson said on homosexuality: Start with homosexual behavior and just morph […]

This question isn’t whether or not the TSA should allow knives on planes. The question is why is the TSA even involved in private travel in the first place? (why is there even such a thing as the TSA?) Security is the job of the airlines and the airports; not the federal government. When a […]

I was riding through Ormond Beach, Florida yesterday when a fellow biker pulled up next to me and asked for directions to St. Augustine. Of course I assisted, but as he rode away I noticed the stickers on his helmet and his saddle bags. His helmet had a picture of a hand giving the finger, […]

I’m on Twitter a few days ago when I decide to search for the hashtag #patriotism. Yes, I was shamelessly looking for ways to plug my posts here on BinaryBiker.com on patriotism. My tactic, look over posts and, when it seems like it might be a fit for one of my blogs, I reply […]

Senior pranksters at my son’s high school sprayed the school with silly string and Saran wrap the day before yesterday. Because of the school’s Zero Tolerance policy, the police are involved and, if caught, the offenders will face criminal charges of trespass and vandalism – marks on their criminals records that will follow them the […]

Take a look at the image on the right. That, my friends, is what an airport full-body image scanner shows. You can clearly see every . . . single . . . inch of the person in the scanner. His chest. His navel. His butt-crack. His penis. His testicles. You can see it all. This […]

I’ve been asked quite often how I feel about abortion. Should a woman have a right to choose? At what point does a fetus become a human and when is it morally acceptable to terminate a pregnancy? I am inevitably asked because the person asking is looking for support for their position. They are rarely […]

Patriotism is defined, by dictionary.com, as “devoted love, support, and defense of one’s country; national loyalty.” That’s it; that’s all there is to the definition of patriotism. There is no sub-clause in that definition stating that a patriot must support the troops in the exact same fashion as the vocal majority or minority. There is […]

Flash Fiction Theme: “Alien Healthcare” Location: Earth after Aliens Coexist with Humans Required Phrase: “sassafras soup” Uninsurable by Ron Sparks “…but I’m dying,” my translator decoded the burps and hiccups that emerged wetly from the Jovian’s speaking orifice. Strictly speaking their race wasn’t from Jupiter, but that’s where they had been found, stranded, a hundred […]
