If you have too much ammo, or too many rifles, you might be arrested….

(around here, “he was a beginner” and “underprepared”….and certainly needed more ammo….)

But in New York, he was, apparently, a serious threat…..although I doubt any of the charges stick, seeing as all the guns were legal. And Smokeless powder is a propellant, not an explosive. At best they will get him for “improper storage”.

‘Cause he is, apparently one Bad Ass Motherfucker.

Stabbing victim pulls knife out of own neck, kills terroristYonatan Azarihab, who was collecting money for charity, hospitalized in moderate condition after Petah Tikva attack

Bad.
Ass.

Today, I saw a flock of sandhill cranes flying northward.

A sure sign of spring.

Geese are one thing, Young robin scouts another.

Sandhill cranes are certain signs.

Herons soon.

Tourist finds another plane piece in Indian Ocean.

May or may not be a piece of MH370.

Anyone know if the piece found on Reunion Island was determined to be a part of MH370? I never heard for sure.

“I’ll take you home”.  Army Veteran Julio Munoz is reunited with his dog, Ben,  that he served in Afghanistan with.

Read it.  Dusty in here, ain’t it?

The dogs adoptive family did the right thing. I am sure that it was hard on them. Kudos to the family for making the hard, but right, decision.

K2 Solutions and the Pentagon should be beaten, then tarred and feathered….then really punished. Anyone in that chain who has made the decision to give the dogs up for adoption without offering them to their handlers first needs to lose their job (or funding) and be barred from such positions of authority for life.

Nancy Reagan passed.
Age 94.

Peace.

“The duties of the Senate are set forth in the US Constitution….Nowhere in that document does it state that the Senate has a duty to give Presidential appointees a vote”.
     Harry Reid, 2005

Yet now:

“We have that nasty Constitution that says that they are OBLIGATED to hold hearings and OBLIGATED to vote. “
     Harry Reid, 2016.

Odd what 11 years (and a shift in political power) does to people’s understanding of things, innit?

Spring offensive?

or maybe just for “fun”.

A Turkish citizen, a Swede and a man from Serbia have been arrested after a massive shipment of grenades and automatic weapons destined for Sweden was uncovered.

A Serbian, a Turk (and Finn), and a “Swede”….(Betcha he’s a recent immigrant, or child of immigrants….And I’ll be that he speaks Arabic and isn’t a Lutheran or a follower of Odin..)

That’s the odds I give for the winners in the upcoming clash between the “Soldiers of Odin” and the “Soldiers of Allah”.

First of all, there is LOTS of bluster in nearly any Islamic group of males, and very little fight.. (although those that DO fight are somewhat competent and fairly fearless, I am told). Little organization, and not much education. Plus they aren’t gonna get much support flying the ISIS flag.

Second, the Soldiers of Odin have the home turf advantage. Likely better weapons. More support from the populace. Plus Viking Blood and all that.

This shall be interesting…. I bet it happens sooner rather than later. That’s what happens when someone invades rather than assimilating.

Gonna happen here sometime too…different invaders, but no less anger.
