Europe’s “Future”
6 Dec 15 On Europe’s “future,” from a connected friend in the UK: “Europe stands naked in the face of the current ISIS onslaught. Your summary is precisely right. Like you, I fundamentally understand insurgency warfare and especially the nature of this brutal death-cult, and will not underestimate the cunning of these vicious criminals. I […]
Tet Again?
5 Dec 15 Islamic Tet? I arrived in Vietnam in the summer of 1968, just after the famous Tet Offensive had been mostly crushed by US forces. Militarily, Tet was a disaster for the Communists. Their losses were hideous. They didn’t care! The fact that they were supposedly mostly defeated, yet were still able to […]
DTIOPERATOR.COM
1 Dec 15 Update on our DTIOperator.com Web Page I knew it was going too smoothly! My thanks to everyone who has subscribed. I am learning how to do all this! The company that processes our credit-card transactions didn’t like annual subscriptions (for reasons known only to them!) so we’re temporarily using PayPal to process […]
What’s Going On?
1 Dec 15 “A fact never went into partnership with a ‘miracle.’ Truth scorns the assistance of wonders. A fact will fit every other fact in the universe… A lie will not fit anything except another lie.” Robert Green Ingersoll How do you do? The truth actually rears its ugly head! What has heretofore been […]
Paradise?
29 Nov 15 Gun-Free Paradise? “Is there no virtue among us? If there is not, we are without hope! No form of government, existing or theoretical, will keep us from harm. To think that any government, in any form, will insure liberty and happiness for an dishonorable population represents the height of self-deception. What virtue […]
Happy Ending?
27 Nov 15 No “Happy Ending!” Today, in Colorado Springs, CO, we experienced a hostage drama at a local Planned Parenthood Clinic. Not a lot is immediately known, but current information suggests there was a single suspect, armed with one longarm (at least). Several casualties, including police officers. At least one fatality. Suspect eventually surrendered […]

No Credibility!
22 Nov 15 Credibility Gap: City of Los Angeles Council Members recently passed an ordinance banning magazines that hold more than ten rounds. Of course, that number will soon be reduced to six! City residents were granted a “grace period” of sixty days within which to “turn them in,” or otherwise get rid of them. […]

Immigration Down Under
19 Nov 15 ‘Liberals fully expect a chocolate cake to emerge when they dump together vinegar and baking soda, and are astonished when it doesn’t happen!” Anon Illegal immigration in New Zealand and Australia, paraphrased from a US citizen, and friend, living there: “In New Zealand and Australia, illegal immigrants (including ‘visa overstays’) comprise one […]
Fights and Battles!
18 Nov 15 Gun “Fights” and Gun “Battles!” This week’s, particularly yesterday’s, raids by French Police and Special Operators on multiple hideouts used by Islamic terrorists set the stage for what is going to become commonplace there and here. Witnesses described “continuous gunfire” for over three hours. Also multiple explosions. When the dust finally settled […]
Too Cool for School!
17 Nov 15 “Too Cool for School?” Geraldo Rivera on Fox News today, describing BHO’s refusal to listen to governors who don’t want their states flooded with unvetted Islamic “refugees.” Even the liberal press is now starting to turn on their dimpled-darling liberal icon, BHO, who heretofore could just do no wrong! It is painful […]
Paris, 2015
16 Nov 15 “I always believe in being prepared, even when dressed in white tie and tails.” Patton Post-Paris, 2015 Do you think the French have finally learned their lesson about “no-policing zones” in Muslim neighborhoods? Over here, the BHO Administration, even now yet locked in its leftist fantasy world, has apparently learned nothing! From […]
Brandishing!
13 Nov 15 Incident in TN: “… and when I am through, you think my advice is not good. Then, go out into the world and pay with thy blood. Heed not my words of warning. Remember not what I say. Pay dearly for thy ‘first-hand wisdom,’ as you cast away my advice!” Samurai Axiom […]
Security Precautions!
2 Nov 15 From a friend in Jerusalem: “An advisory has recently gone out to synagogues in Jerusalem, given the last several weeks of increased personal attacks on Israeli citizens (not to mention the ‘usual’ bombs, rockets, etc). These recommendations are simple, reasonable, and apply equally to churches and synagogues within CONUS, and most other […]
Northwest!
1 Nov 15 The “Other” Revolutionary War “… in the event of Great Britain attempting to force unjust laws upon us by strength of arms, our Cause we leave to Heaven, and our rifles!” Hanover Association, Lancaster County, PA, 1774 During the French and Indian Wars of the 1750s and 1760s, many North American Indian […]
Hunting!
29 Oct 15 Fall Hunting: Yesterday, at Shawnee Ridge in OH, Vicki and I both brought down magnificent animals. Vicki’s was a Spanish Goat. Mine was a Red Stag. Others in our party got two big pigs! Vicki’s shot was with her Aimpoint-equipped Robar Polymer AR (223), using Cor-Bon 53gr DPX. It was uphill at […]
Unarmed?
27 Oct 15 The world’s unarmed face a desperate future! My Greek friends equate gun bans (the kind currently proposed by the BHO Administration, and that are already in effect in Chicago and NYC) to a personal death sentence. For their fathers and grandfathers, it was! Fighting Moslem Ottomans, Italian fascists, German Nazis and then […]
Slips Out!
22 Oct 15 It slips out: As HRC flounders on the witness-stand today, despite withering help from her Democrat apologists, who dutifully fall in line and insist that she can do no wrong, her scantily-reported speech last Friday on the subject of private ownership of guns by American citizens has gone largely unreported. Not surprising! […]
