Seems that John Brennan required the Beghazi veterans, those me who fought to save all of the folks that were attacked when the “Rebels” rioted and killed the ambassador….Yeah, those folks…

Yeah, he made ’em all sign Non Disclosure agreements or be fired.

And, oddly enough, was the promoted by Barry the First to Director of the CIA.

First he claimed they had no need to talk about the incident.

Then he denied forcing them to sign the documents.

Odd, that. And now he thinks his continued security clearance is a Right?

Seriously? He claims that losing his security clearance is a violation of his First Amendment rights? What about those folks he silenced (and got promoted for silencing them)? Or are there two standards?

We all know the answer….If he has his security clearance, lots of folks will hire him to “consult”….If not, he is unemployable.

If a white man said “Vote for me because I am white” then the cries of racism are loud and strident.

But it is, apparently, OK for a black woman to say “ it disgusts” her seeing black people holding signs for “these Asians” and not supporting “their own people.” “…

Racism, in any form, is wrong.

But it is odd how the standard is different, isn’t it? Negroes can be as racist (and are, generally) as much as white people.

Unless, of course, you are a Democrat…

So, I mentioned an issue with the training department at the NRA….
Which was discussed at the monthly meeting at my club last night.

This opened the door to discussion of the NRA and the services they (allegedly) offer. And the discontent in a hundred members who are angry at the NRA.

I was, quite frankly, shocked at the amount of anger and discontent directed at the NRA organization…

There were complaints about failure to follow up with Life insurance (2 incidences…one 2 years old now and still unresolved) and complaints about gun insurance (one member STILL has not gotten any response …not even an email or phone call, despite having put in a claim after a house fire 9 months ago…..and repeated emails, phone calls/voicemails, even a registered letter for his claim on the 25 or so firearms that were destroyed in a house fire)…But, as he pointed out, they have people call him weekly to ask for more money….

At this point, the club is investigating alternatives for insurance and is seriously considering cutting ties with the NRA after a 48+year association with that organization. The only reason we can see for continuing is the discounted insurance … And those of us who have cautioned patience and waiting and not acting rashly…..

It appears from the discussion last night that everyone who has dealt with the NRA has come to the same feeling…that the NRA is openly working only for the NRA, not the members. That it sees the members only as a profit center, and that it’s mission is to squeeze as much money out of that membership,  rather than serve their interests or promote the shooting sports.

There was a lot of talk about GOA and Second Amendment Foundation, and the fact that those organizations have done more in the courts for Gun Rights in the past 10 years than the NRA has done in the past 30….(on the other hand, I pointed out that the NRA has done significantly more in the political arena with our legislators )…Still, the discontent was there, and came to a head

Where does YOUR club get it’s liability and other insurance to operate?
Please, feel free to email me if y’d rather not say so in comments. (TheMiddleoftheright@Gmail)

Has passed.

Damned good performer.

I hope it was peaceful and quick. 

So can we trust anyone?

Police are SURE that it was terrorism….But so far, no name admitted. And, of course “Terrorism” but no one says “Islamic”.  But the failure to give a name tells the story, doesn’t it?

Are the police in the UK that inept? Or are there that many “Lone wolves”? Or what?

And it is, again, just a matter of time until this sort of thing happens with bigger vehicles (again) with a greater loss of life (again).

So far, it hasn’t happened here. in the US….yet. I think it is because, legal or not, our immigrants HAVE to assimilate (even just a bit) and we don’t make it easy…so only the smart ones get into this country…and smart people don’t waste themselves killing or injuring only a few people….

But this single firing won’t fix the FBI’s image. There are a LOT more folks that are not living up to (or even TRYING to) the FBI’s ideal.

FBI official Peter Strzok, who played a lead role in both the Russian meddling and Hillary Clinton email probes but became a political lightning rod after the revelation of anti-Trump text messages, has been fired.

Remember, he was part of the team that did their best to exonerate Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of Classified (and higher) documents via her unsecured private email server.

No bias….We know because Strozk himself said so….

Aretha Franklin’s Death Is ‘Imminent’ as Source Confirms ‘She Has Been Ill for a Long Time’

The “Queen of Soul” is apparently dying. 

Interesting that Ms Omarosa Newman chose to reveal the recording she made …..

Just before her book is scheduled to be released.

Coincidence?

Think the publicity will drive book sales? 

So we had a Hunter Ed class at the range on Saturday.

“Twas good. The Indiana DNR gives us the materials and a class outline and allows us some leeway to teach.

Kids were attentive, interested, and pretty motivated. We instructors like that.

And, afterwards, had a man who was there with his son, come up and offer our Lead Instructor 5 (five) $100 bills as a donation,…because “I’ve taken this class over the years with all of my kids, and this was the best and most intereting”.

22 attendees, and 22 who passed the test and got their cards issued by the Indiana DNR.

Hopefully 22 more informed kids who will be better, safer, more ethical hunters.

Think about the scenario postulated.

What else makes sense?
