THIS.
To many of you, this is no surprise. I’ve been waiting for the furor to die down and real facts to come out.
We now have them. More facts may be forthcoming, but the ones we already know are damning.
There are rumors that may be true that are even worse (scroll down), but until they become facts we can’t be sure.
Hopefully, soon, this ineffective man (I won’t call him a leader) will be gone soon.
If New York, New Jersey, and all the other blue states being trashed by this large (but not terribly intense) storm can do better than New Orleans at recovery in the aftermath.
While I sincerely hope that the damage is minimal, and no one is hurt, I wonder how they will recover.
They all have HUGE “entitlement” populations, their populations all vote for Democrats, and they are all sheep like when it comes to government.
While they are somewhat better at self determination than their N’awlins southern neighbors, they are still democrats, and statist.
At the Nappanee gunshow…
So, since the restaurant next door has all you can eat bacon for $8.95, we went.
Sadly, the Free Automatics were already gone…or it may have been a rumor put out by the Brady folks.
We did meet up with Og and entourage at the restaurant, and had an excellent breakfast while we discussed the shape of the world and how things were going and such….
Either way, after a large(ish) (>12,000?) number of bacon laden calories covered with a significant amount of potatoes and eggs covered with heaps of cholesterol laden (real sausage) gravy, (I stopped after 4 trips to the buffet, when I couldn’t swallow any more and by them people were staring anyway) we entered the gunshow.
Sadly, there were very few bargains (unless you wanted shotgun barrels).
I had taken the 788 with me looking for a scope that would fit the look-though rings, but could not find anyone who had the same idea of the value of used scopes vs (nearly worthless) FRN’s. So I didn’t purchase a scope. I did get a great deal on some 45-70 bullets ($60/1000– 405 grain hard cast flat point) and some ammo cases. I am told by people who know more than I that the prices on the more collectible firearms weren’t great.
I was saddened that we missed out on the free automatic weapons giveaway, but it was an entertaining Saturday morning. If you like used firearms, and collectible rifles and pistols, you should check out the Nappanee Indiana gunshow, held spring and fall only.
Especially when they tell the UN to butt out.
That is the kind of politician I can vote for.
If, of course yer the Prez.
(we all know how he was gonna vote anyway).
Strange that they protest that it is an undue burden for everyone else though, innit? (Even though you need an ID to function in today’s society)
You should read this. The source appears to be InfoWars, so take it for what it is worth.
Having said that, it is not outside the realm of possibility.
Decide on the veracity, and plan accordingly.
I shall.
Maybe skip that coffee from the coffeehouse for a few days, or perhaps take a lunch instead of going out, or cut your beer dosage in half for a few evenings or whatever, and instead send the money HERE.
I’m gonna write a check as soon as I get home. Maybe not for as much as I’d like to, but if enough of us give a few bucks, it’ll add up. No doubt a few bucks from each of us will help things, especially down the road.
Think about it.
on the Chicago area television stations, I must say that it is apparent that the people who the Democrats are pandering to must have an IQ somewhere between warm bread and newly hatched parakeets.
Not that anyone in the Chicago political scene is really worth voting for, but anyone who believes the half truths and misrepresentations in the ads must be an idiot or a union member or a lifelong democrat(but I repeat myself), not to mention the fact that the ad writers apparently believe that in order for the ad to be effective to the intended recipient the bullet points must be repeated at least three times shows that the candidates and the folks who write the ads think that the average voter is stupid and slow or retarded.
Were I in that voting block, I’d feel insulted, but after seeing the ads, I’m not sure the folks who they are aimed at have the capacity to understand WHY they should feel so.
Was the beginning of the stock market crash.
While significant for the fact that it brought about the Great Depression and the bank runs which led which spread to affect those smart enough or who had not enough money to dabble in the highly leveraged stock market….
But more importantly, the effects of the crash which happened 83 years ago today opened the door for the (not so) thin edge of socialism.
And we live with those effects today.
But it seems that PahPakistan and it’s government is unhappy that we aren’t helping enough with their recovery and relief from their yearly floods.
Even though the US’s contribution is greater than Paahkestans.
Sad that.
