“Your Tax Dollars At Work”
Wednesday updates
In case you missed my mea culpa, the Nashville shooter was not a male who identified as female, but a female who identified as male. Early reports had it wrong. ********************** One of our least favorite people, former Major Nidal Hassan, the Ft. Hood (soon to be Ft. Cavazos) shooter who killed 13 servicemen in […]
Counterpoint to Baltimore FGS
Yesterday Ed did a post about a young man who defended himself and was not charged. Here’s another case, also in Baltimore, which doesn’t yet have a happy ending of any type: Medically retired U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Alejandro Gonzalez has spent more than 16 months behind bars, accused of first-degree murder. He and his […]
Tuesday shorts – Ft. Hood, renaming schedule
The Military Times reports that our favorite PC project, renaming those bases originally named for nasty Southerners, is in process – we have read before what the new names will be (can’t argue with naming bases or ships after most of them – better than names like Murtha or Harvey Milk, right?) Ft. Hood is […]
Just doesn’t feel quite right

At the time, the Corps did a thorough inspection of the vehicle fleet: The thorough inspection, based off of initial tests developed by the manufacturers, found that nearly all […]

Well, as of this writing mid-Tuesday, so far he is talking glittering generalities – but PINO Joe is trotting out the Democrat’s favorite weapon on the armed populace, the Executive Order and to impose red flag laws and universal background checks with a wave of his pen. It aims to move the US “as close […]
Justice System Shorts part Deux
The FBI has issued record numbers of seizure notices to take guns from folks who should have failed background checks but were allowed to purchase guns when the FBI failed to respond in three days to the checks. 6,300 in 2020, 5,200 in 2021 – with the article subtext that the rate is skyrocketing. It’s […]
Immigrant Bald Eagle killers allowed to skate by Feds
Better take your blood pressure meds before reading this. The Stanton County Sheriff says they arrested two Honduran immigrants for having shot a BALD EAGLE and intended to cook him up when arrested. (While they had “some papers from the Honduran embassy”, no word on how illegal they are.) For those who don’t know, possession […]
