15 Aug 22   “We were ready for ‘crazy,’ but not that kind of crazy!”   Jason Medina   We see that even when he enjoyed “protection” provided by at least two armed LEOs, who were both close-by and assigned to look-after him, author Salman Rushdie was forced to endure (by himself) twenty seconds of […]

11 Aug 23   “The problem with knowing just enough about a subject to think you’re right, is not knowing enough to know you’re wrong!”   Journalistic Axiom   After assuring us that 9mm pistol bullets “blow the lungs out of people,” we learn yesterday, during one of JRB’s straight-faced, robotic diatribes (where no questions […]

9 Aug 22   “Leftist politicians exercise a classic parasitic paradigm, which adds no value and harms its host (us citizens), to just shy of death. And, they will continue to do so for as long as we vote for them, as they try to bribe us with our own money.   Until we overcome […]

3 Aug 22   German-born musical genius, Richard Wagner, revolutionized music in Europe, particularly opera, during the Nineteenth Century. His contribution to the Art can hardly be overstated.   He did all this while, for most of his life avoiding the “political mainstream,” and he thus found himself in exile much of the time, and […]

1 Aug 22   “Sometimes, actually most times, ‘compromise’ is not the best solution. Sometimes, one side is just completely wrong”   Newman   This kind of arrogant hypocrisy begs to be exposed!   Self-important members of Congress are currently going all-out (with taxpayer money) to vastly upgrade their personal security arrangements- at work, home, […]

29 July 22   “Some use “ambiguity” as their native language, and thus prefer to hide behind a veil of para-social intrigue, deceit.”   Erik Pevernagie   “Racism!”   Democrats have made “racism” the “new McCarthyism!” Like “assault weapon,” the term “racist” is deliberately left undefined, so that the accusation alone (absent any evidence) suffices […]

27 July 22   “Tyrants are the children of vanity”   Sophocles   The Democrat-dominated “Oversight and Reform Committee” of the House of Representatives is about to viciously pillory selected American gun-company CEOs who have been called to DC in order to “answer some questions.”   Yet, Democrat Committee members aren’t waiting to actually hear […]

26 July 22   “Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied”   Otto Von Bismarck   The invariable method used by socialists (Democrats) when confronting bad news is abject denial, then self-justification.   After continuously denying rapidly-escalating inflation, the JRB Administration now assures us that inflation is a good thing, because […]

21 July 22   A new Communist Utopia!   JRB recently canceled a strategic counterintelligence program designed specifically to protect the USA from ever-more sophisticated Chinese espionage.   Chinese love him!   Currently in China:   China is rapidly replacing human judges and prosecutors with AI-empowered computers.   China is currently using “AI” to “improve […]

19 July 22   “Tactical Loitering!”   As a young USMC Captain, I attended the Army Advanced Infantry Course at Ft Benning, GA in 1978.   At the “Home of Infantry,” there is a vitally important reason that:   “Follow Me!”   is the historic motto of our Infantry School.   Everyone there, starting with […]

13 July 22   “I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.”   Churchill     WWI, Ready or Not!   American General Jack Pershing kept BARs out of the hands of American troops until the very end of the War, fearing they would be captured and “reverse-engineered” by Germans. […]

6 July 22   Some history:   >On 1 August 1966 in Austin, TX, Charles Whitman murdered eleven and wounded 31, all with a bolt-action (“non-assault”) rifle.   >Six years ago (14 July 2016) in Nice, France, a perp murdered 86 innocent people and injured another 458 by deliberately running-over them with a truck (doubtless […]

I conducted several training programs […]

2 July 22   “Wrong does not cease to be wrong, just because the majority share in it.” Leo Tolstoy   There is scant doubt that the PRC manufactured and launched COVID as a “biological artillery barrage,” designed specifically to stress and weaken the existing economic and social fabric of the Western world.   That […]

27 June 22   When it’s least expected, you’re elected!   Tony Pagni   This from an LEO friend and student in TX:   “Last Saturday morning, I consumed five cans of spray-paint on some outdoor furniture, continuously pushing on that little button with my right index finger.   That afternoon, while dry-practicing before going […]

26 June 22   “What is right is often forgotten by what is convenient.”   Bodie Thoene   Our Constitution’s interpretation:   In January of 1973, the US Supreme Court, under then Chief Justice Warren Burger (Richard Nixon was President), ruled that a woman’s supposed “right to an abortion” was in some curious/invisible manner, implicit […]

25 June 22   “The unprepared mind cannot see the outstretched hand of opportunity.”   Alexander Fleming   Rifles for serious purposes:   1) Optic covers. In an emergency, we don’t need to have to remember to flip-up lens covers. We use rugged, military optics. Get superfluous steps out of your life!   2) Covered […]

17 June 22   “Naivety doesn’t excuse poor choices, Deary!   You and I both know life is unforgiving.   I can’t rescue every drowning pup that is stupid enough to peer too deeply down a well.”   Richelle E Goodrich   Modern Democrats arrogantly insist that “all wisdom began with them!”   Yet, multiple […]
