“This is This” | So, you have a chief executive (“JB”) compromised mentally and legally, and installed via a janky primary and a dubious election, and, some young cookie fresh out of the Princeton fellowship bakeshop is going to defend him like Wonder Woman wielding her Magic Lasso of Aphrodite? Homey don’t think so. Homey think the whole wretched episode of orchestrated national mindfuckery is about to come a’tumblin’ down, along with the miserable ghoul in the Oval Office. And that will be followed by the fun of seeing them try to eject Kamala Harris from the scene and replacing her with the likes of Barack or Michelle Obama. (Don’t believe it? Just watch.)
Too many of our churches have watered down Christianity into a church of cowards, too cowed to speak up.They are told that “Jesus would never behave that way.” Jesus behaved exactly that way. He was strong, not wimpy. He got angry, He didn’t slink away when confronted with disbelief and evil. He challenged His followers to give up everything for Him, to be strong and courageous, not towussout. He went to the cross for fallen, sinful human beings and never shrank from His mission like many of today’s churches are doing. Those churches are insipid, lukewarm, beige imposters pretending to be real food and drink real sustenance. In reality, their spiritual diets are poisoning their customers. All that being said, there is a great comfort, happiness, and true, deep joy in the Christian life when lived rightly and understood clearly.
Behavior Predicts Why Some People Spend Their Lives In Poverty And Social Dysfunction
When I see a mentally handicapped truant Swedish child scolding an international body of delegates and the delegates cheering for the scolding — at them — what I see is a room for mental health patients, filled to capacity plus one. Nobody of sound mind should cheer scolding at them. It tells me all the “civilized” nations of the world are maintaining a habit, without borders, of investing real authority and influence in mental midgets. I don’t know why all these supposedly advanced nations have all slipped off their rockers this way at the same time, and I don’t really care. It’s evidence that I can’t trust what authorities say, because the authorities by default are cuckoo. It really doesn’t help matters that the “facts” being dished out by the young Swedish mental patient are nonsense.
Free speech is free speech. It has bowled over the — what? — maybe twenty-three percent of the country that considers free speech “a threat to democracy.” It has bowled over the — what? — maybe twenty-three percent of the country that considers free speech “a threat to democracy.” This is what comes of inverting and subverting language itself for the purpose of mind-raping the nation like Jeffrey Epstein on a 15-year-old. The Left has exercised a Macumba voodoo death grip on free speech for years now. The deeper the Left’s crimes against the constitution and common decency, the harder they strangled the flow of news, information, and opinion until the mental life of the USA turned into a gibber of shamefully obvious unreality.

We Are Now At War With Russia By agreeing to provide direct weaponry that can be and will be used in the waging of war by one of the two parties to same we have entered the conflict. That our GIs are notdirectly thereis of no consequence.This is no different than shipping arms to Britain during WWI in the Lusitaniaor the lend-lease provisions in early WWII that ultimately led us to get involved there in Europe.Indeed Pelosidirectly referencedthose early WWII provisions indicating that she knows damn well the implications of what Congress just did. In fact it waslend-leaseof March 1941 that led Hitler to come after the United States; we had entered the war as a belligerent by officially agreeing to supply war material to Britain.
NATO is at Proxy War – Thinking that playing cute and coy with your public statements is somehow going to permit you to simultaneously engage in clear acts of war while avoiding being targeted by a hypersonic missile barrage is the sort of thing that only fat, soft and very stupid people can believe. Unfortunately, the last two years of The War on Covid have proven that most people across the so-called Democratic West are fat, soft, and very, very stupid.
Raconteur Report: VAERS Finger-counting 1) They report, among other outcomes, a total of 12,672 U.S deaths alleged to be causally related to the vaccine. 2) Reports are not necessarily correct, as allegation does not equal causation, but the trend generally supports that conclusion, which is why we have a VAERS in the first place. 3) For historical reference, VAERS generally only gets reports filed on about 1% of actual incidents. You would then be justified, based on that ratio, in extrapolating that the COVID vaxx has probably caused 1,267,200 deaths in the US in 2 years. U.S. Covid deaths are reported, per the Johns-Hopkins ARCGIS site, to be 993,588 since the outbreak began.
So I’ll ask again, what’s the solution?
So do you here, think this problem is self correcting?
So do you realize the first pic, “ the nice man with a long range rifle”. Is likely an integral part of the solution.
So, everybody here understand you use the media platforms, your a huge part of the problem.
The indoctrination is dam near complete.
We all know the difference between the truth and a lie, we all know right from wrong..

Dirk axed: “So I’ll ask again, what’s the solution?”
========
Describe the problem precisely and don’t be vague.
Dirk, I have found that not all know right from wrong, nor do they care. I also know first hand that many times I cannot tell the truth from a lie. Never forget the words of William Casey, “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.”
Regarding the picture of the Nashville’s balloon theologian. “Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20. Life is short, very short. Then comes eternity.
America has become a den of evil spirits and so called holy men/women are nothing more than pablum puking preachers in the pulpits.
I just recognize my solutions. A reprehend a time out, a short jail sentences solves nothing. These “ thinks” are sooooo badly damaged, only a bullet to the head is a fix. The problem is, their the sheep, their not the mentors. Digging these truly responsible for this isn’t going to be easy.
I hate what parts of our country have become. The problem is we can choose to run to little tiny communities of like minded folk, yet “they “are always right behind
These people are in fact a deadly cancer. Cutting it/ them out is clearly the only solution.
Of course that “ cleansing” will be required every 100 yrs or so.
I’ve zero illusions where this ends. What has to happen.
Dirk, though I agree that a bullet to the head could be part of the solution, such an approach is somewhat like Futilely Shooting Sparrows in My Backyard. Unless a mass classical Christian spiritual awakening occurs, there will be blood, and not just one bullet at a time.
John Venlet, I agree with you regarding a “Unless a mass classical Christian spiritual awakening occurs”. I would love to see one. Unfortunately there are very few if any pablum pukers in the pulpits that know anything about a Christian spiritual awakening. Now tell them that you will line their physical pocketbooks with money, lots of money, and they will be lining up in the streets. Johnny Cash sang the following song with U2. It pretty much sums it all up.
I went out walking
Through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking
Under an atomic sky
Where the ground won’t turn and the rain it burns
Like the tears when I said goodbye
Yeah, I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin
Where men can’t walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don’t want God in it
I went out with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
I went out walking
Down that winding road
Where no one’s trusting no one
And conscience a too heavy load
I went out riding
Down that old eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name
I went with nothing
But the thought you’d be there too
Looking for you
I went out there
In search of experience
To taste and to touch
And to feel as much as a man can
Before he repents
I went out searching
Looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father’s right hand
I went out walking
With a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus, don’t you wait up
Jesus, I’ll be home soon
Yeah, I went out for the papers
Told her I’d be back by noon
Yeah, I left with nothing
But the thought you’d be there too
Looking for you
Yeah, I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh
Joe, you’re not wrong about “pablum pukers” in the pulpits across most denominations, which does indeed impede a mass spiritual awakening amongst people who do have a grasp of the gospels, tenuous though it may be. It’s not a simple task to not live in the world, as Scripture admonishes us, because we all must make our way in the world on a daily basis. I just try and make my way in the world as it is today in as Christian a manner as I can, with the realization that because I choose to walk this path I may be hated, and may be called upon to harden my heart because of the evil which I must confront.
Brother John, I understand, I’d love to see a literal uprising of people standing in support of our lord.
I’ve mentioned I have a problem with organized religion. “That’s my issue”, I still pray for a peaceful solution. I’m my private moments with god, he has told me, my prayers for peaceful times will need to be fought for. I honestly don’t think that’s a battle which can be won will on our knees praying.
While we are all his herd,,,, even god himself realizes our worlds sick. It’s interesting, I’ve never really followed the Pope, about ten years ago, I started to “ monitor”. The current Pope.
My god, the Catholics are in deep shit. From religion to govt, there’s never been a weaker crop of self absorbed leadership in this world.
We are fast approaching a reckoning, as GV points out.
As I was told today I’m a paranoid. Actually, I understand how this ends. We The People, our Lord will prevail. A time of peace and prosperity shall follow what’s coming.
What’s the solution? I dunno. Personally, I can’t fix this, any of it. All I can do is love my family, support my neighbors and friends, trust in the Lord, pray, and teach my children to do the same. I can appreciate each day’s daily bread. I can hope that I don’t leave things worse than they were when I found them, and maybe they’ll be just a little better for my having been there. Those are the things I can do.
Julie, If we don’t agree on a solution pronto, won’t matter what you teach the children. The state, the Federal Govt will take over raising our kids, our future. That threat is ongoing as I write this.
“I dunno”, just isn’t working anymore.
I get it, I to just want to be left alone. I recognize your answers straight up honesty.
Daily bread, what say you when the food shortage is causing our youth to go hungry, will that change your mind, would that motivate you to seek frank tough choices.
So your a prepper, you have food for years. Julie are you able to protect that food from raiders criminals or even the govt who’s going to take what you saved for prepared for and saved to put away. Cuz they are hungry.
Do you live In A place you can simply disappear. You your family and make it work.
We are fast approaching a time when reasonable solutions have been taken away. By design, we are fast approaching a time in space wherein. Citizens are literally placed in box cars and shipped off to institutions.
That BLM and Antifa run the streets, are the enforcers for state and fed local control.
I ask about solutions often.
The blog daddies talk shit all day everyday, addressing the problem. Their quick to point out the sky’s falling.
It is rare possible solutions are offered. When they are offer we’re pack animals, we eat our own.
Prayers, family , our circles of friends ARE what’s at stake.
I hear you, Dirk, and respect where you are coming from. You aren’t wrong. My family, we do what we can knowing what is happening.
However.
When I say, “I dunno,” it isn’t out of a flippant disregard for current events. Nor the desire (though of course, I feel that very much) to be left alone. I don’t mean there isn’t a burning desire to do something, if only I knew what that was. It is the simple reality that I – and my family – are exactly where God has placed us. I can fight it or I can roll with it.
When I speak of “our daily bread,” I mean that in the very real sense that for years now, I wake each day knowing that there is a huge difference between what I plan to do and what will happen, but either way, daily, I see His hand at work in our lives. Often not as I wish it, but there it is, undeniable.
When one knows without a doubt that one is in His hands, well, everything I said above will have to suffice until He tells us otherwise. I know what I wish for and strive for; He knows what is needed. I can’t explain it any further than that, I don’t have the words.

It’s good when you question everything that proceeds from gubmint mouths. Collect guns. That drives them crazy. Be a free person, whatever that means to you. I’m aware that I cannot say what I feel in the public square, but what the Lefts don’t realize is that I wrote them off years ago. They hold no sway with me.
Snakepit KansasMay 2, 2022, 10:48 PM
Julie,
Nice words. You must be a wonderful person. I am working on turning the other cheek….
At some point the bullets will fly. And mentioning the military due with the bolt gun: It is a short action therefore most likely a .308WIN chambered rifle but it has a muzzle brake. This makes guns MUCH louder. I would not want to fire that thing in a room.
KCKMay 2, 2022, 1:44 PM
I have so many cats on this farm, that if I could find a combat application for them I’d be so TactiCool, like the guy in the first pic. If you asked my elite combat veteran father, when he was still with us, what good cats are in a combat zone, he’d have said they were: food.
We’re at war with Russia? FukThat! I was at war with Russia 45 years ago. It was cold, too.
Bringing home a little toy today, now that I’m sufficiently “cooled off” for the state of WA. Now, to avoid putting shit on the pica-tiny rail… I’ma show it to my cats, too. They’ll just purr.
The food plant thing is crazy bad. It causes me to rewind to the port stoppage in LA and Seattle, and to realize that it was probably on purpose. I suppose the deepstate in DC would’ve actually made traction out of a big trucker strike if it’d happened. Interesting how the state has you coming, and going. Time to shift fronts and attack on a tangental axis. Also: plant crops.

You’re only a year younger than me, and I speak from experience, it’s good to alternate your daily goals so as to avoid boredom and burn out. I am currently in the process of creating a short shooting range for pistols next to my workshop. 8 yards from table to gongs. I have a goal that I want to perfect and this can only happen with repetition. With a variety of pistols in outside the waistband Kydex holsters, I want to draw, shoot, and hit an 8″ gong 24 feet away in less than 2 seconds. Then, less than 1 second. I expect to be working on this every dam day this year that is not raining. I recently purchased and “off the books” S&W M&P for my wife and will be working with her on it this year too. Some things I can change, some I can’t, some I just don’t care.
KCKMay 3, 2022, 7:02 AM
I’m still trying to get my routines back after the Covidz lockdowns upset them.
Given the price of ammo, I am more prone to hoarding bullets than to shooting them. Luckily, my shooting skills have proven themselves to be durable.
Kydex. They just don’t work for me. My next purchase is a western leather belt and holsters. It sounds like a showboat move, but I have found that the leather rigs are the most comfortable. No school like the old school. Now, to start another penny jar.
ghostsniperMay 3, 2022, 8:30 AM
Until a few weeks ago I had always used ballistic nylon holsters then a friend let me try his Glock 19 everyday carry in an inside the waistband belly kydex. Frankly, I had never used a Kydex and thought they were less secure and the gun could possibly fall out. The Kydex is much tighter on the gun than I had previously realized. You really have to yank to get it out of there.
I’m not a fan of the belly tight because I, well, have some belly and 2 things can’t occupy the same place at the same time. But I’m going to get a side mounted outside the waistband Kydex (probably a Vedder’s brand) and install it at 4 o’clock on my belt. It really is the fastest way to draw. One for the S&W M&P and another for the Beretta 92FS. Most gunfights take place within 10′ so time is of the essence.
I would however like to have a western rig as well. A .45 western revolver in double action with a Clint Eastwood leather holster. A lever gun that fires the same ammo. A coachgun double 16″ barrels in 10 gauge. Then I need to find me a hoss. I won’t be wearing Mike Austin style pointy assed cowboy boots.

Turn the other cheek? Believe in heavenly guidance? Trust the plan?
Tell that to the ghosts of the once-believers, now the-dead, who did the same. Find the spirits of their unborn children to explain why they weren’t brought to life.
This is a multi-front assault on every thing and every body held dear; yes religion-based family values, locally grown food, and circles of like-minded people are important.
No one said they weren’t, so get over that.
The defense against assault is with belt-fed, water-cooled implements. You can pray for more ammunition after.
The enemy will not stop, the enemy is well-trained and organized, the enemy does not care if you are righteous, the enemy wants you dead. Get that through your thick stubborn skull, or you will join the piles of bodies already schooled in that lesson.
Yes, “turn the other cheek”. We got that. But we only have 2 cheeks. Once the second one is turned, then it is war to the knife.
When I meet our Savior I want to show Him my knife dripping with the blood of His enemies. He commands it so. Christ is not a god of peace and harmony, He is a God of war. How many times must He demonstrate this? My God, most Christians are milquetoast cowards and drooling weaklings. They do not know the God they claim to worship. Here is God at work:
“Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them, put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.”—Samuel 15:2-3
We must do no less here in America. Deus volt.
“David has killed his tens of thousands.” Let us join David.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Joe, you’re not wrong about “pablum pukers” in the pulpits across most denominations, which does indeed impede a mass spiritual awakening amongst people who do have a grasp of the gospels, tenuous though it may be. It’s not a simple task to not live in the world, as Scripture admonishes us, because we all must make our way in the world on a daily basis. I just try and make my way in the world as it is today in as Christian a manner as I can, with the realization that because I choose to walk this path I may be hated, and may be called upon to harden my heart because of the evil which I must confront.
Brother John, I understand, I’d love to see a literal uprising of people standing in support of our lord.
I’ve mentioned I have a problem with organized religion. “That’s my issue”, I still pray for a peaceful solution. I’m my private moments with god, he has told me, my prayers for peaceful times will need to be fought for. I honestly don’t think that’s a battle which can be won will on our knees praying.
While we are all his herd,,,, even god himself realizes our worlds sick. It’s interesting, I’ve never really followed the Pope, about ten years ago, I started to “ monitor”. The current Pope.
My god, the Catholics are in deep shit. From religion to govt, there’s never been a weaker crop of self absorbed leadership in this world.
We are fast approaching a reckoning, as GV points out.
As I was told today I’m a paranoid. Actually, I understand how this ends. We The People, our Lord will prevail. A time of peace and prosperity shall follow what’s coming.
What’s the solution? I dunno. Personally, I can’t fix this, any of it. All I can do is love my family, support my neighbors and friends, trust in the Lord, pray, and teach my children to do the same. I can appreciate each day’s daily bread. I can hope that I don’t leave things worse than they were when I found them, and maybe they’ll be just a little better for my having been there. Those are the things I can do.
I’m on Julie’s team — put me in, coach!
Julie, If we don’t agree on a solution pronto, won’t matter what you teach the children. The state, the Federal Govt will take over raising our kids, our future. That threat is ongoing as I write this.
“I dunno”, just isn’t working anymore.
I get it, I to just want to be left alone. I recognize your answers straight up honesty.
Daily bread, what say you when the food shortage is causing our youth to go hungry, will that change your mind, would that motivate you to seek frank tough choices.
So your a prepper, you have food for years. Julie are you able to protect that food from raiders criminals or even the govt who’s going to take what you saved for prepared for and saved to put away. Cuz they are hungry.
Do you live In A place you can simply disappear. You your family and make it work.
We are fast approaching a time when reasonable solutions have been taken away. By design, we are fast approaching a time in space wherein. Citizens are literally placed in box cars and shipped off to institutions.
That BLM and Antifa run the streets, are the enforcers for state and fed local control.
I ask about solutions often.
The blog daddies talk shit all day everyday, addressing the problem. Their quick to point out the sky’s falling.
It is rare possible solutions are offered. When they are offer we’re pack animals, we eat our own.
Prayers, family , our circles of friends ARE what’s at stake.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I see a reckoning coming.
I hear you, Dirk, and respect where you are coming from. You aren’t wrong. My family, we do what we can knowing what is happening.
However.
When I say, “I dunno,” it isn’t out of a flippant disregard for current events. Nor the desire (though of course, I feel that very much) to be left alone. I don’t mean there isn’t a burning desire to do something, if only I knew what that was. It is the simple reality that I – and my family – are exactly where God has placed us. I can fight it or I can roll with it.
When I speak of “our daily bread,” I mean that in the very real sense that for years now, I wake each day knowing that there is a huge difference between what I plan to do and what will happen, but either way, daily, I see His hand at work in our lives. Often not as I wish it, but there it is, undeniable.
When one knows without a doubt that one is in His hands, well, everything I said above will have to suffice until He tells us otherwise. I know what I wish for and strive for; He knows what is needed. I can’t explain it any further than that, I don’t have the words.
It’s good when you question everything that proceeds from gubmint mouths. Collect guns. That drives them crazy. Be a free person, whatever that means to you. I’m aware that I cannot say what I feel in the public square, but what the Lefts don’t realize is that I wrote them off years ago. They hold no sway with me.
Julie,
Nice words. You must be a wonderful person. I am working on turning the other cheek….
At some point the bullets will fly. And mentioning the military due with the bolt gun: It is a short action therefore most likely a .308WIN chambered rifle but it has a muzzle brake. This makes guns MUCH louder. I would not want to fire that thing in a room.
I have so many cats on this farm, that if I could find a combat application for them I’d be so TactiCool, like the guy in the first pic. If you asked my elite combat veteran father, when he was still with us, what good cats are in a combat zone, he’d have said they were: food.
We’re at war with Russia? FukThat! I was at war with Russia 45 years ago. It was cold, too.
Bringing home a little toy today, now that I’m sufficiently “cooled off” for the state of WA. Now, to avoid putting shit on the pica-tiny rail… I’ma show it to my cats, too. They’ll just purr.
The food plant thing is crazy bad. It causes me to rewind to the port stoppage in LA and Seattle, and to realize that it was probably on purpose. I suppose the deepstate in DC would’ve actually made traction out of a big trucker strike if it’d happened. Interesting how the state has you coming, and going. Time to shift fronts and attack on a tangental axis. Also: plant crops.
Also: plant crops.

Started last week.
More this week.
Rinse. Repeat.
The SOCOM fires with authority. I’ll have to be disciplined to not play with the toy and plant the garden. All in good time, a little bit at a time.
You’re only a year younger than me, and I speak from experience, it’s good to alternate your daily goals so as to avoid boredom and burn out. I am currently in the process of creating a short shooting range for pistols next to my workshop. 8 yards from table to gongs. I have a goal that I want to perfect and this can only happen with repetition. With a variety of pistols in outside the waistband Kydex holsters, I want to draw, shoot, and hit an 8″ gong 24 feet away in less than 2 seconds. Then, less than 1 second. I expect to be working on this every dam day this year that is not raining. I recently purchased and “off the books” S&W M&P for my wife and will be working with her on it this year too. Some things I can change, some I can’t, some I just don’t care.
I’m still trying to get my routines back after the Covidz lockdowns upset them.
Given the price of ammo, I am more prone to hoarding bullets than to shooting them. Luckily, my shooting skills have proven themselves to be durable.
Kydex. They just don’t work for me. My next purchase is a western leather belt and holsters. It sounds like a showboat move, but I have found that the leather rigs are the most comfortable. No school like the old school. Now, to start another penny jar.
Until a few weeks ago I had always used ballistic nylon holsters then a friend let me try his Glock 19 everyday carry in an inside the waistband belly kydex. Frankly, I had never used a Kydex and thought they were less secure and the gun could possibly fall out. The Kydex is much tighter on the gun than I had previously realized. You really have to yank to get it out of there.
I’m not a fan of the belly tight because I, well, have some belly and 2 things can’t occupy the same place at the same time. But I’m going to get a side mounted outside the waistband Kydex (probably a Vedder’s brand) and install it at 4 o’clock on my belt. It really is the fastest way to draw. One for the S&W M&P and another for the Beretta 92FS. Most gunfights take place within 10′ so time is of the essence.
I would however like to have a western rig as well. A .45 western revolver in double action with a Clint Eastwood leather holster. A lever gun that fires the same ammo. A coachgun double 16″ barrels in 10 gauge. Then I need to find me a hoss. I won’t be wearing Mike Austin style pointy assed cowboy boots.
The combat application of the cat is to infiltrate many behind enemy lines at night and position them so they call all simultaneously stare blandly at the human they are next to and assassinate them with judgment.
This edition of the Duran with Andrei Martyanov is worth listening to for a Russian perspective on the present unpleasantness. I mean a Russian Russian perspective… not a Russian in Name Only NeoCon Poodle perspective.

I too recommend The Duran for a very russian look at things.
Wasn’t it the Afgans who said, “ You have the clocks”, but we have the Time!
Tic Toc!

julie for the win twice
Turn the other cheek? Believe in heavenly guidance? Trust the plan?
Tell that to the ghosts of the once-believers, now the-dead, who did the same. Find the spirits of their unborn children to explain why they weren’t brought to life.
This is a multi-front assault on every thing and every body held dear; yes religion-based family values, locally grown food, and circles of like-minded people are important.
No one said they weren’t, so get over that.
The defense against assault is with belt-fed, water-cooled implements. You can pray for more ammunition after.
The enemy will not stop, the enemy is well-trained and organized, the enemy does not care if you are righteous, the enemy wants you dead. Get that through your thick stubborn skull, or you will join the piles of bodies already schooled in that lesson.
Yes, “turn the other cheek”. We got that. But we only have 2 cheeks. Once the second one is turned, then it is war to the knife.
When I meet our Savior I want to show Him my knife dripping with the blood of His enemies. He commands it so. Christ is not a god of peace and harmony, He is a God of war. How many times must He demonstrate this? My God, most Christians are milquetoast cowards and drooling weaklings. They do not know the God they claim to worship. Here is God at work:
“Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them, put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.”—Samuel 15:2-3
We must do no less here in America. Deus volt.
“David has killed his tens of thousands.” Let us join David.
