Weekend Open Thread

| January 14, 2022

Radical Islamic leaders, from different factions, voice a common objective. They call for Islam being established over the whole world. The only logical response, in this situation, cannot be dismissed as “Christian jihad”. They’ve been fighting the West for centuries. We must be willing to be more persistent, patient, aggressive, etc. in response. To do otherwise is to abdicate our civilization in favor of adopting an Islamic one. Enjoy your weekend.

Nice shootin’ iron pron.

Going to the range to git rid of some “stale” and “old” ammo….from like a few months ago.
It’s like breakfast cereal. You gotta keep it fresh, right??? (sarc)

Here’s my contribution…

And today’s Ammoseek.com listing for current low prices of ammo with settings for low or free shipping (free only when marked as such). I filter some things like brass only, new only, no poly covering etc.

(in cents Price Per Round, obviously)
12 Gauge, Shot Size: slug, exclude(Mini) – .55
.223 Remington, exclude(Frangible) [new only] [brass case only] – .47
.22LR, exclude(poly) [new only] [brass case only] – 0.10
.45 ACP/Auto, exclude(frangible TSJ steel) [new only] [brass case only] – .479

9mm Luger, exclude(frangible TSJ steel) [new only] [brass case only] – 0.317

Although I got an alert early this morning around 4 am (they usually drop about that time…delivery truck??) that 9mm was at $0.22 a round. NOM NOM !!! 😀

Yeah, I saw that when I saw it went to Moderation. I forgot.
I’ll just split them next time. THANKS!

Commissioner Wretched

Well, the trivia morsels were quickly put on the main buffet table. Hope you and everybody else enjoy them!

As for the Dawgs … I know it’s not good for a person living in the Southeast to say this, but I don’t really follow football. Glad they won and all, but where I come from, there are only two sports – baseball and everything else.

And it’s just “Go Cubs” with me. I’m a true Northsider, and the Sox – while a good ball club – are the Southside’s problem.

Roh-Dog

Congrats and here’s your accoutrements.

I installed a bottle opener in the scepter and a cigar cutter in the crown. This should make the troops happy!

Have a great weekend y’all!

Hey! Looks like I snuck one in there!!! Okay, prepare to show love to the FIRST on the WOT! This one’s all mine, folks … proper genuflecting is to be expected. Whilst I lord it over you all for the next week, how about some trivia to lessen the impact? DID YOU KNOW…? How did the horse in “Mister Ed” learn to move its lips when it “talked”? By Commissioner Wretched didyouknowcolumn@gmail.com With the new year now fully underway, let us pause for a moment. Okay, that’s long enough. Seriously, though, I wanted to ask you: How many of your New Year’s Resolutions have you already broken? Come on, now. You know you made them, and you know you have let a few slip already. Of course, you could follow the path I tread … I make one resolution every New Year, and promptly break it. I resolve never to make resolutions. Do it like this, and you get the whole thing out of the way and can get on with the fun of making this clean, unmarked year bend to your will. And while you’re doing that, allow me to supply you with this week’s trivia! Did you know … … you could suffer from defervescence? If you do, it’s a very good thing. Defervescence is the medical term that describes the decrease in body temperature in a fever patient. (It’s a scary word, but it means well.) … golf has been played on the Moon? During the mission of Apollo 14 in 1971, astronaut Alan Shepard (1923-1998) used the head of a six iron attached to a sampler handle to knock a golf ball while standing on the surface of the Moon. It took Shepard three swings to get the ball to move, and though he said it went “Miles and miles,” mathematicians estimate his lunar drive only went about 4,000 meters – still the longest drive ever struck by a golfer anywhere. (I think it’s safe to say that Shepard will hold the “longest drive” record for quite a while.) … laws were once proposed to ban… Read more »

Nope, haven broken my New Year’s Resolution yet.
It’s the same one I’ve had since I left Co A 4/9 Inf Rgt at Ft Wainwright.
I will not eat liver and onions this year.
I left there in 1976 and I have yet to even think about breaking it !!!!
Nope, not eating that !!!

Top Five! Piece of shit cell phone won’t frigging cooperate.

Here’s a fun one – Mike Lindell now claims he has enough evidence to put some three hundred million people in jail for election fraud:

https://www.newsweek.com/mike-lindell-claims-he-has-election-fraud-evidence-jail-millions-life-1668743

That’s 91% of the US, and more people than voted in the election, all being put away ‘for life’. Somehow.

And this follows on from news two weeks back where Texas hasn’t found any mass election fraud in their audit:

https://www.fox4news.com/news/audit-finds-no-widespread-fraud-during-2020-presidential-election-in-texas

Sapper3307

He did a life ban from TwOtter,so could have on to something.

SFC D

Really had high hopes for Mike’s information, but he’s let me down again. Can’t say I’m totally surprised though.

LC

I have to ask, then – do you think the election was stolen? If so, does the repeated absence of evidence and outlandish claims like this make you question that position?

No arguments here from me either way – I’m just really curious.

SFC D

No, I don’t think it was stolen, but I do think there was a lot of shady shit done in the name of Covid. Arizona did a half-assed inquiry run by a shoddy investigator on an uncooperative state government and pronounced themselves clean. Now the investigator is under investigation. Lots of questions, no answers. I just thought it would be awesome if ol’ Mike actually had something. My expectations were very low.

Berliner

When election workers and one political party observers team up to keep the other political party observers from observing ballots being opened, reviewed and counted, there is a a steal in progress.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

He does make me wonder sometimes if his head missed those nice pillows from time to time and bounced off the floor…

He reminds me of the people that make me nervous about being associated with the big L Libertarians…I enjoy Jefferson’s notions of libertarian life principles, but the modern Big L folks let every crackpot with a thought have a shot at a leadership role…it’s why they’ll never be a true national party and why they can’t win a national election….when you think Libertarian you think a guy like William Wallace leading the people to freedom, but what you get is Gary Johnson lost on what an “Aleppo” is like a dear in the goddamn headlights.

Our response.
Scorch & Salt the Earth and kill *everything*, Man, Woman, Child, Beast and Plant.
THEN come back and talk shit about your fucked up religion. Oh wait, there’s no one to do that.
Got it.

Maybe you can get it right on your next incarnation. We’ll let the Universal Gods and spiritual entities worry about that.

You may remember Maryland State Attorney Marilyn Mosby who overreached and prosecuted 6 police officers in the death of Freddie Gray.

She has also declined to prosecute minor crimes and drug offenses.

Mosby has now been indicted by a Federal Grand Jury:

A federal grand jury has indicted Baltimore’s top prosecutor Marilyn Mosby on charges of perjury and making false statements with a series of financial transactions that helped her buy a condo on Florida’s Gulf Coast and another property near Orlando, Florida.

Mosby, 41, is charged with falsely claiming to suffer financial hardship from the coronavirus to obtain an early withdrawal from her retirement savings to purchase the homes. In addition, federal prosecutors allege she lied on a mortgage loan application by hiding an outstanding federal tax debt. And they accuse her of entering into an agreement to rent out a home she bought in Kissimmee, near Disney World, while at the same time promising not to rent the property — all to obtain a lower interest rate.

Her husband, Nick, is the president of the City Council and it appears that the wolves are circling him as well for tax evasion over improper deductions on the couple’s homes.

ANNNNNNNDDDD it’s likely jack and shit will happen to them…unless they’ve become politically disposable and then they will become victims themselves, like the Demoncraps will eat their young. I just don’t see it happening BUT the schadenfreude this week is just delicious….
1. Joe’z votery manipulation gets shit all over
2. the SC goes and tells Joe to stick his OSHA jab up his ass and then
3. Maryland MOFO Mosbee and her schlubby get slightly jacked. We’ll see what happens.
One can dream, can’t they??

My dream is that the Mexican government lawsuit triggered by the “Fast and the Furious” gunrunning would name Obama and Holder.

I wuz at the gym trying to keep the old ticker ticking.

In the Good News of the Year for the GB Compound (early, but so far at least): We were finally able to ditch AT&T’s “service” and get connected to a fiber-optic co-op. College Granddaughter tested it out and it should help her a lot in the upcoming semester.

If anyone has any practical advice for Airborne Son getting his paperwork moving to medically retire before they decide to yank his benefits because he cannot take the anti-Wuhan-Fauci “vaccine” – I would certainly appreciate it.
While breaking their kneecaps and flogging them with barbed-wire would certainly feel satisfying, it wouldn’t help get the paperwork through in an expeditious manner.

Y’all have a great weekend.

RECENT PHONY UPDATE –
We will hearing a LOT more in 2022 about San Clemente, CA’s
Phony Legion of Merit Mayor Gene James.

The San Clemente Times
(the same writer & news source for VG articles #1 & #2)
is now putting together a new story…
a Phony Legion of Merit Mayor Gene James story.

I look forward to seeing truth & accountability day
for a long time liar, embellisher, and (political) town bully.
It promises to be a local newspaper Stolen Valor takedown to remember.

Which of course, makes for a great future VG article #3.

The entire ninja family is laughing so hard…

THANK YOU, Claw, ChipNASA, SFC D and KoB!!!

(Wonder if JRM is reading this…)

One more time…

Do you think JRM read where the ninja family posted that JRM only has 8 ribbons/awards versus the 12 he claims…and that he is NOT entitled to wear the Air Assault Badge, the Blue Infantry Cord, Green Tabs?

If JRM wants to have those items in a Shadow Box in his own space, so be it. But for him to wear unauthorized bling on an outdated Khaki shirt in public, let alone a Kilt or Santa Claus outfit?

NO-GO!!! RE-DO!!!!

JRM is only authorized to wear the Vietnam Gallantry Cross
(Unit Citation) and NOT the other 2 Unit awards that he claims/wears. He was with HHC, 501st Signal from July 1970-January 1972 as a 31L20, where he then transferred to the HHC & Band, 101st Support Group from January 1972 to February 1972 before PCSing to USACDEC.

Looks like far right OAN may not survive the year.
DirecTV (AT&T) contract being dropped in April 2022.
Since DirecTV / AT&T is over 80% of OAN’s funding,
and about 40% of their broadcasting reach,
well, do that math.

If OAN is your bag,
you have about 11 weeks left to soak it up.
