This is one way to ‘distract’ the patrons…
Kudos to those folks for their imaginative use of projectors and graphics!
Still on the road, go read the folks on the sidebar! They’re good!!!
Willie played my song again, but at least ‘this’ time, I’m calling the tune…
Moving some stuff from point a to point b.
Go read the folks on the sidebar, and enjoy the day. I should be back on-line tomorrow, or Tuesday.
You’ve probably heard about the guns being stolen out of an armory in Worcester, MA last weekend…
Someone stole more than a dozen guns from a facility in Worcester without setting off alarms.
Full article HERE.
I was chatting with a Marine Reserve who has been in charge of an weapons locker in a reserve center. He told me point blank, “It HAD to be an inside job.” When he listed all the safeguards, checks, cipher locks, etc. AND cameras, he said there is no way in hell it could be anything else…
The real question is when/where these guns will show up next…
In other news, this one showed up via the mil email chain… Good advice here!
Ten ways to avoid being killed in a terrorist attack- HERE.
I would add one more, if there is a question in your mind about going somewhere/attending something, just don’t go…
Obama accused America of being afraid of women and children from Syria…
As usual, he’s wrong. It’s NOT the women and children that are the issue…
It’s these refugees… 18-30 males, no dependents
The FBI director said last week that they cannot vet those refugees. But the administration doesn’t care. Nor apparently does the Virginia governor, Hillary, or the mayor of NYC…
And one is already missing from the ‘camp’ in Louisiana. And Catholic Charities admits they don’t actually track any refugees they ‘place’… Article HERE.
Bottom line, talking to some folks in law enforcement, nobody knows where the refugees go, they ‘disappear’ into the underground fabric of the USA, and do what they want. 40+ thousand illegal immigrant ‘children’ are missing and never showed for immigration hearings.
Two questions- How many Syrian Christians, or Yazidi have been allowed in?
How much time or money has the administration spent to help feed American widows or orphans, homeless people, or veterans? THEY are all Americans!
Edit- Oops, I was wrong, Dems only run EIGHT of ten cities with the highest poverty rate…
Sigh…
TL;DR if you desire- I’m tired of the BS PCism and kowtowing to all the little snowflakes…
An interesting conversation at lunch kicked off this rant…
We were discussing the current ‘things’ that seem to have the MSM’s attention-
Starbucks cup- Anti- Christmas? Probably more a $$ decision… How much did they save by NOT spraying white on the cups? What Christians are actually outraged? None of us were…
Missouri protests- Beyond the pale. Plain and simple kowtowing to a bunch of spoiled children. Questions are being raised as to whether ANY of the so-called ‘outrages’ actually occurred. Oh, and one more point. Self-selective forced segregation… As if we haven’t seen that coming for the last 10 years. AND they complained that the Paris terrorist attacks took over the news, leaving them with no coverage… Really??? YGTBSM!
Yale protests- Yeah, special that one… Screeching harpy Mk-1/Mod 0. OVER A FRIKKIN HALLOWEEN MEMO!!!
I was the only one there without a kid in college, but the consensus was if one of the others kids pulled that stunt, or participated the $$ stops immediately… Of course of the six at lunch, four are in STEM degree tracks and one is pre-med. One is a rising senior doing a co-op for a semester and making $35,000 (not bad for a 20-year-old female).
SJW (bullies) vs. everybody and everything- Pick something, anything… Somebody is outraged… e.g. the puppy kicking continues in various media, among other things. And then there’s THIS, supposedly written by a professor at UT-Austin??? Illogic, overtones of racism, etc… And this guy is a PROFESSOR???
Kids talking back to adults- One of the folks at lunch is a former starting defensive lineman at a biggish university. His youngest son’s bike was swiped by a bunch of teen girls and boys. He confronted them, and they gave him enough lip that he called the cops and told them to hurry before he pounded them all in the ground. Of the three parents he knew and called, NONE of them did anything to the kids, but wanted to know why HE was harassing their children!
Open season on cops- This is another one that is beyond the pale… Do you really want to alienate the ONE group of people who just might save your ass? Or get your property back if stolen? I don’t blame the cops at all for being lockwired to the half-cock position, and rolling multiple units on every stop (which increases response times everywhere).
Special Forces in Syria/Afghanistan- Dribs and drabs of troops, little to no tail, and basically throwing these men and women to the dogs. Kidnap targets, assassination targets, Green on Blue targets… Beyond stupid… Put a thousand in with a good loggie tail and I’ll be impressed.
Keystone- Even as we hear about the problems with infrastructure, train car derailment and leaking rail cars, the administration does this… Pandering to the ecoweenies… And probably handing a huge amount of oil to the Chinese…
Paris and the attacks last Friday… I’m going to send you to Larry Correia’s blog HERE, I’ll just say I agree completely with him…
What do all these have in common? Perpetually Outraged Snowflakes, hereafter referred to as POS…
The ‘rule’ says democracies usually last about 200 years, we’ve beat that by 39 years. But I don’t hold much hope going forward. If these POS are indicative of what is to come, I pity this country when they get in charge…
The POS have NO clue about the real world. They don’t know how to earn money, they’ve never ‘failed’ (Hello ‘participation trophies’), don’t know how to deal with things that actually don’t agree with their leftist taught proclivities, anti-gun, etc…
And the little POS expect to be paid $100,000 a year for a non-sensical degree in basketweaving…
They figure if they throw enough temper tantrums, everybody will cave to them. Guess what, it doesn’t work that way in the real world…
I for one, am sick and tired of the BS going on. I’m not putting up with it. Pull your crap on me, you won’t get anything but laughed at. I have better things to do that kowtow to these POS. You want a confrontation? I’ll give you one. You won’t like it, trust me. I’m old and grumpy. I don’t play fair. I don’t ‘talk’… I act.
Oh yeah, and one courtesy of PPP… On the $15/hr thing…
Kicking the soapbox back in the corner and loading spare mags… Sigh…
You know you’re from California if:
- Your coworker has 8 body piercings and none are visible.
- You make over $300,000 and still can’t afford a house.
- You take a bus and are shocked at two people carrying on a conversation in English.
- Your child’s 3rd-grade teacher has purple hair, a nose ring, and is named Flower.
- You can’t remember .. .is pot illegal?
- You’ve been to a baby shower that has two mothers and a sperm donor.
- You have a very strong opinion about where your coffee beans are grown,
and you can taste the difference between Sumatran and Ethiopian.
- You can’t remember … is pot illegal?
- A really great parking space can totally move you to tears.
- Gas costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.
- Unlike back home, the guy at 8:30am at Starbucks wearing a baseball cap and
sunglasses who looks like George Clooney…… really IS George Clooney.
- Your car insurance costs as much as your house payment.
- You can’t remember …is pot illegal?
- It’s barely sprinkling rain and there’s a report on every news station: “STORM WATCH.”
- You pass an elementary school playground and the children are all busy with their cells or pagers.
- Or It’s barely sprinkling rain outside, so you leave for work an hour early to avoid all the weather-related accidents.
- HEY!!!! Is pot illegal????
- Both you AND your dog have therapists, psychics, personal trainers and cosmetic surgeons.
- The Terminator was your governor.
If you drive illegally, they take your driver’s license. If you’re here illegally, they want to give you one.
The lack of leadership in America today is just flat PATHETIC… Obama STILL won’t admit this is Islamic terrorism…
129 dead, over 300 injured in Paris. INNOCENT people, just trying to enjoy a night out. And now dead or in the hospital…
Think about that… What if that was in your town? What if it were YOUR relatives lying dead in the morgue… Think we’re too far away, think again…
It’s coming here, if not already here. However, I don’t believe the average Americans will go as quietly as the French and other victims did. We still have the 2nd Amendment.
I saw this today, “Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.” and I’m betting ‘certain’ elements of the French are doing this today, much like GIGN did last night to get the few out of the theater that they did. I wonder where the FFL is tonight too…
Carry every day, and keep your SA up folks… It’s only a matter of time.
Rehab SUCKS!!!
Damn knee is swollen, still feels weak, and the exercises hurt like a b**ch…
Left knee is now hurting, and my damn back is kinked again. Little/no sleep the last two nights, and a Post Op with the surgeon on Monday. I gotta get this mess figured out.
Back on a cane for the foreseeable future it looks like. But no stationary bike for the weekend! 🙂
Thank you to all of you who’ve provided support via email, comments, and phone calls.
PSA- Beware of lasers…
At this point, almost 5000 incidents of lasers pointed at helicopters and airplanes, including LARGE commercial acft. Latest incidents were in NYC and near Dallas Love Field.
It’s all fun and games until you have an airplane and hundreds of bodies scattered all over hell and gone…
Lasers are NOT A JOKE! I know one Navy pilot who is now legally blind in one eye, and lost most of his vision in the other eye, due to being lased. Of course s**t like that never makes the media, because ‘security’…
Another thing, I get hit with a laser on the ground, I’m assuming there is a gun behind that laser and I’m going to react accordingly… Kinda like tracers, they can be traced exactly to the perp…
