Well, we finally got rain up here, and it lasted all day, and it’s supposed to do that again tomorrow, with temps never getting out of the 60s!!!
Talking to an older gent who was slogging through the rain yesterday morning, cowboy hat/shirt, jeans, boots, he grumbled words to the effect that he didn’t have one in Vietnam, you damn sure didn’t use one around a horse, and he didn’t think he even owned one.
Difference between city folk and country folk… City folk are worried about getting wet, and fuss with umbrellas; country folk just put their heads down and go about their business, because they know they won’t melt.
Peter, over at Bayou Renaissance Man, has a post up on a confrontation between Antifa and some DPS troopers down in Austin last weekend… It’s HERE! No riot gear, no helmets (unless you count bike helmets on the bike officers, and Antifa made a mistake of ‘thinking’ if that’s possible, that they’d be treated like they are in California… Snerk…
And due to either yesterday or the day before’s post, I got hit with over 100 spam comments, after being ‘normally’ in the 2-3 per day range… Obviously, one of those posts pissed somebody(s) off again…
And in a ‘the rest of the story’ mode, it appears the guy who stopped the church shooter in TN was pistol whipped, then got up, went to his car and got HIS CCW pistol, before coming back and confronting the shooter, who somehow shot himself in the face, link HERE. It appears the MSM ‘forgot’ to include that part… Sigh…
I think I caught one media story which mentioned the usher going to car and retrieving his personal firearm to hold the individual for LEOs. But that was the ONLY one I saw, maybe on OAN network but that is just a guess.
Julio- Yep, that was the only one I saw mentioned… Sigh
I wonder why he didn’t have it with him; as far as I can tell Tennessee law allows church carry, so either that church doesn’t allow it, or he left it in the car for another reason.
I was wondering the same thing as Jonathan. One of my BILs is part of the large secret security group at his church, and they all are packing in church. Course this is N calif and more than likely a majority of the congregation is armed.
PA State Cops have a Rep. Well Earned by the way. Try them and find out.
Old Trooper Told me one time, ” Can’t read or write but they are hell in the woods”.
Jon/Brig- I was wondering that too!
PA- Welcome back! And yes, y’all DO have that reputation…LOL
Fox Radio news mentioned him getting his gun.
I once asked my pastor for permission to carry in church.
He asked me if I could leave it in the car.
I said that was still church property. He said OK.
Next sunday he asked me into his office so he could see my carry piece.
Soon we were having men’s fellowship at the range.
🙂
Caleb Engle probably didn’t feel the need to carry his pistol into church during services, and so left it in the glove compartment of his car. I note that when confronted by an armed man, the shooter elected to commit suicide rather than continue shooting unarmed people, or get into a gun fight with Caleb. Possibly the shooter was mentally ill.
