Mitch Beaudoin from the Burntroot Broadcasting podcast in Canada recently posted his interview (Part 1 and Part 2) with James Wesley, Rawles. This is an excellent interview for those who are just now getting in to the survival/prepper frame of mind as it covers the basics and some history.

I just noticed that we are rapidly approaching the milestone of 80 million unique visits. Thanks for making SurvivalBlog such a great success. Even after 10 years, there are still some folks who are still unaware of the blog’s existence. So a link in your blog, web page, or e-mail footer would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks! – JWR

SurvivalBlog reader B.B. sent in this article: Immigrant Activist Makes History By Becoming New York’s First Undocumented Lawyer. The statement that this person “passed the Bar” makes one realize that apparently a lawyer is not required to follow the law in order to practice. Illegal Immigration is a misdemeanor crime and if repeated after deportation becomes punishable as a felony. How can we claim to be a lawful nation when we knowingly authorize those who flagrantly flaunt the breaking of law to practice in our justice system. How can a person possibly attain justice when the system disregards the very law it is supposed to uphold?
