Maine is mean

They want people to use food stamps for.....Food. 

How rude. How mean, depriving people of empty calories instead of nutrition.

Unhealthy food is a right!

It is time for much purchasing

and many of you may well do it online. Christmas is coming.

If you buy things via Amazon, PLEASE do so via the links on the left column of my page.

It costs you ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, but if you click through that link there on the left and then log in and buy, I earn a small commission. (or click HERE)

Help me feed my guns.

For those of you who do so already, thank you.

The arabs see it....

Why can't the rest of the world see the truth?

These wealthy Gulf nations argue that accepting large numbers of Syrian refugees is a serious threat to the safety of its citizens because terrorists could hide themselves among civilians.

Not to mention that these radical Wahabbis are the direct result of the funding and propaganda campaigns of the same wealthy gulf states.....

I DO think that these people need help....and I really do think that we, as a nation, should help. But not at the cost of our men and women in the military, and not at the cost of our security here in our nation's borders.

Nowhere is there anything written that we have to allow unchecked migration to our country. No one (barrring US citizens), anywhere in the world, has a right to come here and reside in side our borders.

So only some lives

are worth protesting when they are ended:

Here we have two black children:

Both live in Chicago.

One, Tyshawn Lee, a 9 year old boy, killed by a black man who was a rival gang member to his father. (which everyone in the community knew, just waited for the police to make an arrest....)

The other, 17 year old Laquan McDonald killed by a white police officer.

Now, Tyshawn (the 9 year old) was doing nothing, was killed because of who his father was. Shot 7 times. Executed for revenge against his daddy.

Laquan (the 17 year old) was high on PCP, vandalizing cars, and was carrying a knife in his hand when confronted by officers. refused to drop the knife, and was shot 16 times.

Protests for Laquan. Marches and vigils. 'Cause white cop. (and excessive force, perhaps)

No protests for Tyshawn. Black man killed him, so he Don't Matter

Odd that.

The only thing I can figure is that there are racist double standards in the black community. White police officers don't get a pass, but black gang members do....

I hope

That you are celebrating Thanksgiving with people you care about, be that friends, or family or a combination of both. May you continue whatever traditions you have in the comfort of those you love.

Take the time to reflect, and give thanks for what you have. I have much to be thankful for, I hope you do as well.

Raise a glass to those who can't be with friends and family because they are standing a post somewhere less comfortable than where you are.

I will.

Interesting

'twas pointed out to me that the (mostly not black and mostly well educated, not street people) reporters following the (mostly black and mostly not well educated)) protesters of Laquan McDonalds  (he wasn't a choirboy, BTW) death a year ago are surprised by their civility and by their just plain good behavior and politeness.....Much in the way that they are surprised when a scary looking pit bulldog turns out to be a nice, cuddly pet.

Good doggie.

I think it is funny. Sad, but funny.

Except, of course, political donations

So the IRS wants the Social Security Numbers of anyone donating to a Not for Profit organization (501-C-).......

Except, of course for Political action groups that could influence the elections......(Wonder why they exempted those??????)

This is, I feel, an invasion of privacy, as no one needs to know who I support. It could, in fact, be used as retribution against citizens who don't toe the party line, or whose views are not deemed correct by the current administration.

Lois Lerner has already done it, on a small scale, How would you like to have your donation to any non approved cause used to trigger an IRS audit, or other scrutiny?



Contact your Senators, tell 'em to reign in the IRS. Or your contributions to worthwhile causes will, at some point, be used against you.
Plan on it.

Fences work

At least in Turkey:

US working with Turkey to cut off ISIS border smuggling route...

With a fence.

But we can't have on on our southern border because "They won't work".....

Bastards. Lying Cheating Bastards.





Remember this date.....

Sadly, Barry was nowhere near Dallas today....

Interesting viewpoint:

So teaching at another NRA First Steps course I overheard:

"Yeah, last time we let a bunch of muslims in the country in such large numbers that we couldn't keep track of them we had 9-11.......Letting in a half million "refugees" from Syria or wherever sounds like the same thing to me.....".

14 new shooters in the world.  14 "New Shooter Smiles".

Payin' it forward.

At the range last night:

"Dude, I shot a 20 lb turkey yesterday.

Easy shot, it was just sitting there!,


Wow, I gotta say, a .50 cal muzzleloader sure is loud in the frozen food section of the Supermarket though...."


Bobby ain't right...

Just luck

that they were caught.

Wonder what they had in mind? Who were they planning on meeting here in the US? What deviltry did they have in mind??? Perhaps they just wanted some freebies....

At least they were smart enough to try and come the easy way.....across the Mexican border.


Never, ever,

Let a crisis go to waste.

EU Commission uses crisis of Paris Terrorist attacks to further tighten private gun ownership laws to keep the citizens safe.

(Full text HERE)

'Cause the terrorists will get their guns legally.....and it is so difficult , apparently, to get a full auto Kalishnikov in Europe....

And we all know Islamic terrorists follow the laws.......Right? Making it illegaler to possess such weapons will help keep those atrocities from happening, right?

ETA: Not that some Illinois politicians are any better

Well, DUH

How can you investigate someone when there is nothing to investigate?


Not just Syrians

Any group which contains rattlesnakes.

Forward this to everyone you know.

Why would you let dangerous killers into your neighborhoods?

"Round up the usual suspects"






So France, in an attempt to shut the stable door after the equine had bolted, apparently raided something like 75 assorted houses and compounds, seeking suspects in the terrorist attacks of Friday. Seems they found a "significant amount" of weapons and explosives.

Gotta  Do Something..., I get that.....More importantly, the police and other authorities gotta be SEEN Doing Something.

But here is the question: If they knew where to look, and had reasonable suspicion to execute a search (and were, apparently correct in their suspicions) then WHY DIDN'T THEY DEAL WITH THE ISSUE of the terrorist safe houses BEFORE the attack?  Why did they wait until AFTER some of their countrymen had been killed and injured? If they were raid worthy on Saturday or Monday, WHY WERENT THEY RAID WORTHY ON THE THURSDAY BEFORE THE ATTACKS?

Did their inaction result in increased casualties and deaths?


Twas true then.....

And I think it shall prove true today.

THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling


It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.

They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.

Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.



The French were a big part of the Crusades.....will they be again?
