The Firearms That Shaped America, Part 2

By John Restuccia Welcome back readers to my multi-part series on the “Firearms That Shaped America.” If you haven’t read the last part, definitely give it a read to learn about the very first gun that shaped American history. Looking back on Part 1, the importance of this series is becoming more apparent. It seems that guns and gun control are completely taking over the 24 hour news cycle. As much as these conversations take…

The Drinking Bird: A Brief Explanation

By Madeline Perez The mysteries of the world are commonly obscured by the ignorance and apathy of the common man. People are so concerned with their actual lives that they forget to sit back and ponder things like “why”, and “how.” What a pity. This phenomenon is leading to the death of critical thought, creativity, and the scientific method as we know it. What many fail to realize is that it’s everyday mysteries that add zest…

In Memoriam

By Our Staff Last week, the Binghamton Review community lost one of its own. Franklin “Fucktard” Wilson was a freshman cinematography major with hopes of one day working for his favorite film company, Brazzers. He was best known for his article “Jeffrey Epstein Was Definitely Suicided,” which was published in Vol. XXXII, Is. II of Binghamton Review. Franklin was born April 20th, 2001 at Obama’s birthplace in Kenya. At age six he moved to little…

Climate in Crisis?

By Kevin Vorrath Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few weeks you’ve likely heard of the climate strikes being organized around the country and the world, as well as right here in Binghamton. Large crowds of people are out demanding dramatic action be taken to “save” the environment before we hit a climate doomsday, but when you examine the statistics, our environment is better off than we are often led to…

Baxter Accused of Sexual Harassment

By Harley Stinger Last Thursday, Baxter the Bearcat was accused of sexual harassment by an anonymous woman. The woman in question said that Baxter regularly “Bearcat-called” her. Bearcat calling is like cat-calling, but also racist. Baxter, who has not spoken since he caught his parents having sex back in 2004, did not respond to our request for comment. The brave young woman, however, claims that she came forward in hopes of inspiring others, and getting…

The Firearms that Shaped America, Part 1

By: John Restuccia Our country is facing incredibly turbulent times. It seems as though everyday on social media one will be bombarded with information overload. Left and right constantly fighting,  and neighbors and family bickering on topics they often know nothing about. One topic specifically being discussed is gun control. Everyone has a stance on gun control nowadays. It doesn’t matter whether you have used a firearm or if you have any background on firearms…

New Media: The Free Market Solution To Fake News

By: Joe Badalamenti In the current age of the internet, social media and mass information you would think that confidence in the mainstream media would be at an all time high. However that couldn’t be further from the truth, in fact trust in mainstream media has been on the decline since the 80s as a majority of Americans distrust the mainstream news media according to gallup. Some explanations for this trend may include the political…

The Joy of Thrifting

I love shopping. It’s my guilty pleasure. I could walk miles inside of one mall just looking at all of the shoes, makeup, clothes, and I’ll never get bored! However, I don’t have any of the money to actually buy anything. Also, I boycott many popular stores because I don’t agree with their business. Shopping has always been complicated for me because even if I have the money to buy something I like, a little…

The Importance of the Trade War

By: Jake García-Falchook Right now in China, millions of Uighur Muslims are locked in concentration camps where they are converted away from their heritage, against their will. Right now in China, the people of Hong Kong are bravely fighting for independence but are actively being suppressed by a government clearly trying to take away freedoms. Right now in China, hundreds of billions of dollars (up to $600 Billion/year) of intellectual property are being stolen from…

Jeffrey Epstein was Definitely Suicided

By: Franklin Wilson Jeffery Epstein died early last month of an apparent suicide, but due to the suspicious circumstances of his death, many people (myself included) believe that Epstein was murdered, or “suicided”. The term “suicided,” which many truthers have used in reference to Epstein’s death, means a murder that is made to look like a suicide. The reason for making a murder seem like a suicide is so that it won’t be investigated.  Epstein…

The Invasion of Area 51

By Lacey Kestecher About four months ago, Bob Lazar made an appearance on the Joe Rogan Podcast. While Rogan’s podcasts can range up to four hours in length, Lazar’s was on the shorter end of the spectrum, lasting only a little over two hours. Over the course of solely a few days, this episode had become one of the most popular podcasts offered on Apple.  It’s now three months later, and the public is still…

Stop Wasting Time on Assault Rifle Bans

By: Brendan Casey As radical liberal politicians desperately seek ways to win over votes and attack citizens emotions, they begin indicting those who disapprove of their policies. They claim that those who oppose their rendition of gun control and assault rifle bans don’t care about those who were killed by gun violence, and are sub par humans who are content with more mass killings taking place. Anyone who has the smallest knowledge of firearms can…

Responding to Fan Mail

By Tommy Gagliano Last year, before I was Editor-in-Chief of this wonderful paper, I served as the Review’s Social Media Shitposter. (Yes, that was my official title.) While most of my job consisted of uploading articles to our website and sharing them on Facebook and Twitter, I did get a few breaks from the mundane when people would send online “fan mail” our way. Most of these fans just called us fascists or virgins or…
