The Covid infections are rising…..or so they say. Most government (State, Local and Federal) are NOT giving us data, just percentages now….Which makes me suspicious.

A “200 percent rise” in cases might mean from 2 to 4, or 100 to 200, but without any numerical data one cannot ell if that rise is serious or not….and theya ren’t giving us the data. The media makes it sound scary, but, again, no hard data.

I am suspicious, truly. The TV news implies that this is a greater danger and that the hospitals are more full than the way thins were a year ago….which is pretty hard to believe.

Plus, there is this…(not that it is news, the news is that they are now more or less admitting it)….anyone who bothered to try and learn knew that the testing was pretty much a useless thing the way they were using the test and the number of cycles they were running….But those of us who said so a year ago  were shouted down.

So what is the goal of this new propaganda campaign ?

Spent the weekend doing stuff with my parents.

Too bizzy to blog, but family takes priority,

sorry about that.

So we finally got the details for the purchase of the plane finished.

2 weeks or so to pick up

I mean, since we, as a society find it acceptable to desecrate the statues of heroes and/or prominent figures from our past, what is an acceptable time frame? How long should they be honored before we then find it acceptable to damage/destroy/pull down or remove statues of people from our past because they are currently in disfavor ? 50 years? 100 Years? 75 years? What is the time frame?

I ask this because, since the Mob finds it acceptable and desirable to remove and destroy statues of historical figures, like civil war generals, past presidents and even Christopher Columbus in a paroxysm of hate, how long until THEIR revered statues can be removed and pulled down? I mean, it has been more or less 50 years since Martin Luther King Jr was killed….is that enough time for it to be acceptable for us to attack his statues with sledgehammers and tow ropes and pull them down from their pedestals and plinths and break them into pieces? DO we have to wait a certain amount of time for their heroes or revered figures to become non-PC enough for destruction of their monuments?

Asking for a friend and all that.

So two “teens” try to hijack a 75 year old Vietnam veteran…(South Side of Chicago, no surprise there….)

He resists, so they beat him so bad that he died. People on the scene who witnessed the crime pointed police to the perpetrators….(gave names and where they live, according to sources).

But here is the thing….these young “Teens” were, and have been criminals for a long time….Our 18 year old was on probation for carjacking already….and that wasn’t his first encounter with the Chicago Police….and the 17 year old was no better.

And now an elderly man is dead because he and his 17 year old “Juvenile” accomplice were on the street despite multiple previous crimes. Liberal policies designed to decrease the number of young black men in jail.

And one wonders why THIS 17 year old is a “Juvenile” when lots and lots of 15 year olds are charged as “adults” for similar or lesser crimes.

then I apologize. While I was unable to blog, the Spammers found me.

Over 7500 spam comments. It may be that in that group were some valid comments….but I just deleted the entirety en-masse.

That the TSA is racially profiling black people?

I mean, one has to show an ID(and a boarding pass)  to enter the “Secure Area” of an airport.

And we know (Because the Democrat Party tells us) that Black people have a hard time getting an ID (Remember, the DNC tells us that requiring an ID is racist and a method of preventing black people from voting) and therefore it is racist of the TSA to require and ID….Must be that the TSA doesn’t want those black people to travel.

Yeah, I know, all of the above sounds stupid. But then again, so does the claim that preventing Voter Fraud by requiring an ID is racist.

Ever notice that only black people are disadvantaged by the ID requirements? That hispanics, asians, and other minorities are somehow able to acquire an ID? Funny that, innit? One might think that the DNC types believe that Black People are less intelligent or otherwise handicapped or simply lesser beings that the rest of the humans……Unlike the rest of us, who think that they are equal.

Blogging will resume soon.

Stay tuned.

Computer is dead, waiting on a replacement. Blogging is nearly impossible from a tablet, so I am taking a break until I get a new machine

Later

I got time to work on the Non-Ruger 10-22.

It had an issue with groups that were sometimes 0.3″ and sometimes 4 inches.

I took it out of the stock and found the barrel screws had come loose (despite using blue Loctite). Once tightened and re-assembled, I took it to the range and re-sighted the scope.

55 rounds in groups of 5, none larger than 0.6 inches….much of that was me, not the rifle.

I think I fixed it.
