18 Aug 23   “They’re all ‘vetted!’”   This from friends in western NY:   “In Niagara County, NY our local politicians have courageously refused to accept illegal aliens that liberals in NYC want ‘relocated’ to our community (instead of being ‘relocated’ back to where they came from).   However, our neighbors directly south of […]

17 Aug 23   “The naive don’t want to hear truth, because they can’t endure seeing their delusional phantasies demolished”   Nietzsche   Lessons from Maui (and host of other disasters)   1) The naive tendency for most people to assume “technology will beat nature” is ultimately fatal!   What happens when high winds meet […]

15 Aug 23   “‘Negotiating’ only works between moral people”   Marshall When disaster strikes, gun-free Hawaii, where state government has smugly declared that Hawaiians are too stupid to own guns, is apparently not the utopia leftists promised!   Looters and armed robbers are running amok in the wake of epic wildfires.   Local residents […]

13 Aug 23   “It is the beginning of wisdom when you recognize that the best you can do is choose which set of rules you want to live by, and it’s persistent and aggravated imbecility to pretend you can live without any”   Wallace Stegner   Anarchy Rising!   Yesterday, in the upscale neighborhood […]

10 Aug 23   “‘Civil rights’ used to be about treating everyone the same.   But today, some are so used to special treatment that equal treatment is considered ‘discrimination!’”   Thomas Sowell   Who champion “diversity” need to be asked how many conservatives serve on the LA City council!   Anti-police/anti-policing sentiment among far-left […]

3 Aug 23   “I can look my own badness in the face and accept its existence, while you are busy covering your mirror with a white linen sheet.   “When I sin, I know I’m sinning, while you have fallen prey to your own fabricated illusions.”   C JoyBell   Curious the way woke […]

2 Aug 23   “They didn’t have to know what was coming, but they were always ready!”   Tim Grover, describing “… the unforgiving race to greatness”   Heroes to the Rescue, Once More!   Yesterday afternoon, six Israeli citizens were wounded (two critical) during a terrorist shooting attack at a shopping mall in Ma’aleh […]

30 July 23   The “New” Cold War!   The entire Continent of Africa is currently being “re-colonized,” this time not by Western Europeans, but by Russians and Chinese- all as the “West” stands-by and does nothing!   A half-dozen African nations have recently seen their secular governments tumble and be instantly replaced by Russian […]

29 July 23   “An evil man will burn his nation, so he can rule ashes!”   Sun Tzu   One of the “promises” made by BHO during his administration was that he intended to “fundamentally change our nation”   His spiritual successor has surely taken the fulfillment of that promise seriously, as we thus […]

23 July 23   Pistol Skills!   A week ago, Saturday, three heroic Fargo, ND PD Patrolmen, investigating a reported traffic accident, were precipitously fired upon by a suspect who was sitting in an uninvolved vehicle. Exact gun(s) the suspect used has not been reported.   One officer was murdered, and two others were wounded. […]

22 July 23   Follow-up on “Crime Tourism,” from a friend within the System:   “No illegal alien is ever ‘held-over’ after being arrested, not a single one (unless they recently murdered someone).   All are given cell phones and released immediately.   They’re laughingly instructed to ‘call-in every thirty days,’ so ICE knows where […]

20 July 23   “Contrary to popular opinion or ‘escapist trends,’ false hope is in no way better than harsh truth.   Harsh truth is painful, but there’s healing at the end.   False hope on the other hand, is a dangerous thing that offers no reward, not immediately, nor with the passage of time. […]

18 July 23   “We carried our weapons with us at all times, even when we went for water”   Nehemiah, Chapter 4, Verse 23   Personal Safety!   Lies pertaining to personal safety are regularly repeated by media-endorsed “experts.” These myths are all agenda-driven in an effort on the part of “progressive” politicians and […]

17 July 23   “Too Many (Registered) Guns?”   The currently in-custody fifty-nine-year-old suspect in the series of “Gilgo Beach Murders,” in Suffolk County, NY (Long Island), dating back to 2010, now stands accused of at least three of those murders.   If he is guilty, he may also be guilty of at least eight […]

16 July 23   Correction!   In my Quip of earlier today, I conveyed the impression that Woodrow Wilson was the Democrat presidential candidate in 1920 national election.   That is not correct!   Wilson’s severe stroke in 1919 left him unable to campaign for his third term as president.   Instead, Democrats nominated newspaper […]

16 July 23   “Empires aren’t built in a day, but they can disappear in one!”   Jesse Page   Weapons and Empires!   America was technically “neutral” during most of WWI, as President Woodrow Wilson’s personal aversion to armed conflict overrode the pressing need to stop German/Austrian aggression on the European Continent.   For […]

13 July 23   “It is often said that power corrupts. But, it is equally important to realize that weakness corrupts too! Power corrupts the few, while weakness corrupts the many.   Hatred, malice, rudeness, intolerance, and suspicion are faults of the weak. Resentment on the part of the weak does not spring from ‘injustice’ […]

12 July 23   Onward and Upward!   HS Produkt (formally “IM Metal”), located in the Republic of Croatia, has been manufacturing the enormously-successful “XD” line of pistols and importing them into the USA, under the auspices of Springfield Armory, since 2001.   Their Croatian factory is ultra-modern and competitive with the best in the […]

11 July 23   “When I’m good, I’m very good. But when I’m bad, I’m even better!”   Mae West   True effectiveness of machineguns as implements of modern war was not universally appreciated until half-way through WWI, even though they had been around since 1900, because prior to WWI machineguns had seen service mostly […]

7 July 23   Security “Plan,” or “Security Theater?” Woke corporate whores assure us they have a (always unspecified) “security plan’ when we, as customers, come onto their property to shop and otherwise do business.   Never believe it!   It’s all BS!   In NYS, under the new “Concealed Carry Improvement Act,” businesses must […]
