What if…

Posted on by March 6, 2013
The government conducted testing on the American Public without their knowledge…

Lots of folks now know about the Tuskegee Syphilis experiment that was done HERE. 

But how many people knew about THESE tests???



Hmmm… Wonder if that’s what’s wrong with me…  Sigh…

40 Things…

Posted on by March 6, 2013

“WE” should have learned by now…

1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
2. Don’t worry about what people think, they don’t do it very often.
3. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a car.
4. Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
5. If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you’ve never tried before.
6. My idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance.
7. Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.
8. It is easier to get forgiveness than permission.
9. For every action, there is an equal and opposite government program.
10. If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.
11. Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed of cheques.
12. A conscience is what hurts when all of your other parts feel so good.
13. Eat well, stay fit, die anyway.
14. Men are from earth. Women are from earth. Deal with it.
15. No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes.
16. A balanced diet is a biscuit in each hand.
17. Middle age is when broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.

19. Junk is something you’ve kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.
20. There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.

22. By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.
23. Thou shalt not weigh more than thy fridge.
24. Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.
25. It’s not the jeans that make your bum look fat.
26. If you had to identify, in 1 word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, & never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be “meetings”.
27. There is a very fine line between “hobby” and “mental illness”.
28. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.
29. You should not confuse your career with your life.
30. Nobody cares if you can’t dance well. Just get up and dance.
31. Never lick a steak knife.
32. The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.
33. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we put the clocks back.
34. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she’s pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.
35. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age eleven.
36. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.
37. A person, who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person.
38. Your friends love you anyway.
39. Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic.

Napolitano on the current situation…

Posted on by March 6, 2013
Judge Napolitano writes in commentary for the Washington Times…

The Right to Shoot Tyrants Not Deer.


The right of the people to keep and bear arms is an extension of the natural right to self-defense and a hallmark of personal sovereignty. It is specifically insulated from governmental interference by the Constitution and has historically been the linchpin of resistance to tyranny. Yet the progressives in both political parties stand ready to use the coercive power of the government to interfere with the exercise of that right by law-abiding persons because of the gross abuse of that right by some crazies in our midst.

The ‘money’ quote:


Did you empower the government to impair the freedom of us all because of the mania and terror of a few?

I sure as hell didn’t…

Did you know this? I didn’t…

Did you know this???

Can you believe this? Eleven states with more people on welfare than they have employed!!!

In La La land. Even a 3rd grader can see the fallacy of this and, of course, the number of states will continue to grow until the bubble bursts

It would appear we are doomed and past the point of no return these 11 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed!

And Surprise-Surprise!!! 7 of these States voted for Obama.

And California is about to go bankrupt, as they are falling further and further under budget even WITH the new taxes passed in Nov…

So will the Administration bail them out??? Of course they will, they’re too big to fail… sigh…

Spammed…

Posted on by March 6, 2013
First time I’ve ever had this happen, but I had to close comments on both the Dammit and One ND Away posts just now due to spamming…

Dammit had over 50 spams, and One ND had almost 30… In less than 24 hours!!!  The total of ‘other’ spam comments?  FOUR!

Anybody else seeing anything like this??? Or have I pissed somebody off to the point that I’m in the crosshairs???

Another School Shooting…

Posted on by March 6, 2013

In another gun free zone, in another heavily gun regulated state.   It doesn’t matter that there is a pattern here, just that they will use this one as more ammo to ban.  

http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/10/us/california-school-shooting/

And apparently the meeting between NRA and Biden’s boys didn’t go well… Ban, ban, ban, no discussion of kid’s safety. What a surprise…

Pro 2-A…

“Gun Appreciation Day” to be held 48 hours prior to President Barack Obama’s inauguration later this month…

One ND away???

Posted on by March 6, 2013
At lunch yesterday I was chatting with a Sheriff’s Deputy (and former Marine 2 tours in the sandbox) that I know, we got on the subject of the possible gun bans and all the associated folderol…

He said it could be very interesting, especially since most of those guys/girls ALSO have AR platform and other types of rifles.  He said he doesn’t believe it will ever get to confiscation, but if it did, his personal opinion was that we were one negligent discharge away from open revolt.  

When I looked at him, he said there are ‘plenty’ of NDs among LEOs either through complacency, or nerves, or improper clearing procedures…

All it would take would be on person trying to unload ONE gun in a confiscation and have it go off, and the shooting would start (like the Marine killed in Ariz (I think) without ever firing a shot).  And if it did, there would be innocent folks dead; which would then get out to the public.

What would follow? It could literally be the one ‘spark’ needed to set off a conflagration that would make Lexington/Concord look like child’s play. His opinion, it would be open season on LEOs and others because then everybody would think it was done on purpose.  Nationwide,  SWAT teams would be trying to take down houses, anybody answering the door with a weapon in hand would be either pepper sprayed, Tasered, or summarily be shot; then it would be ‘combat’ house clearing from that point on…   

And he didn’t even want to contemplate being on the receiving end or having to try to take guns away from friends/family.  He basically admitted he’d be out of law enforcement if confiscation came to pass.  

The ‘money’ quote- “I’ve been shot at enough DEFENDING this country, I’m not about to get shot at for something as stupid as gun control. It’s not about the 2nd Amendment, it’s about control.”

Pretty much have to agree with him on this, and I hadn’t even ‘thought’ about that problem…

Dammit…

I ‘hate’ it when I get proven right some times…

I had commented on a couple of posts that I was more worried about an EO than legislation…

Vice President Joe Biden revealed that President Barack Obama might use an executive order to deal with guns.
