Free Republic

I have a pest control issue concerning rats that live in trees. What sorta air rifle is recommended for this sorta thing? I want something cheap but powerful enough to be able to take down a varmint in one shot... Any suggestions, and no I don't want a convention gunpowder rifle as I already have one of them.

Just found out from KHOW that Tom Tancredo is running for Governor of Colorado. I hope he kicks the living crap outta the Chickenpooper who just wussed out on Nathan Dunlap's death row sentence. Nathan Dunlap is the creep who shot up a bunch of people at a Chuck E Cheese in the early 1990's.

Raymond Maxwell is one of the four State Department officials who was disciplined due to security lapses leading to the U.S. Consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya, last year But after he was placed on paid administrative leave last Dec. 18, CBS News says that rather than sulk in silence and shame, Maxwell has been publishing poetry about his ordeal–often scathing verse–that can’t be making officials in Washington, D.C. applaud (or snap their fingers, whatever the case may be). CBS News calls attention to his “Trapped in a purgatory of their own deceit.” Here Maxwell writes in part: “The web of...

Maybe we should hold rallies at our local media outlets.... Bring nothing but whistles and just stand outside blowing them over and over again..... Maybe a few signs that read “We support Whistle Blowers, Why doesn’t this Administration...” Maybe a few Obama signs with the Obama symbol with a picture of a whistle inthe center and the red circle X over the whistle... Maybe we need to start a few “Pro Whistle Blower Rallies” outside Media Oganisations and Government buildings...

He was supposed to have a guest on hios show that said the "United States as we know it is going to end by the end of May 2013". I was wondering if he had this guest on and what their name was. My curiosity was peaked listening to Hannity on KHOPW last night and I forgot about it this morning but my memory just jogged...

And the Current Administration calls US, "Paranoid" and they are the ones who are wiretapping the AP.... The AP, pretty much been cheer-leading Obama for them last 6 years and when he gets into power what does he do? He wiretaps them like Nixon.... Oh sure, trust the government, or tell the students at that college last week to trust the government... Oh really... Well what the hell was he expecting from the AP, to Fawn over Obama EVEN MORE than they currently do... That would have actually pushed MORE people to the tea party as they would have seen...

Just heard on a radio show from the guy that recently made the 3D printed gun that he has just been shutdown. Cody just reported on it while on a national talk show.

I find it interesting that they kinda rhyme...

This morning I woke up and drove to work and on my way I saqw some illegals near a highway with some signs that read pro "undocumented immigrant slogans". I then decided that I should become fully "undocumented" as the people holding the signs seemed so damned happy. So I walked into the local electronics store and decided to help myself to some of the shop keepers wares. I grabbed a few items off the shelves and walked out, when stopped by the racist store security i explained to him that I was simply making a "Undocumented Purchase" as there...

During Thursday night’s episode of The O’Reilly Factor on Fox News, Glenn Beck discussed TheBlaze’s investigation into the government’s curious handling of the Saudi national who was questioned in the hospital after the Boston Marathon bombings. The two former Fox colleagues talked about the possible reasons for DHS detaining the Saudi man and O’Reilly said he’s willing to give Beck “a hearing.”

To all those dumb libtards that say we cannot Forcibly Deport all the illegal immigrants inthe country right now... They love to use the whole "If we can send a man to the moon..." Argument to say we if we can do that we can fund this or that government boondogggle.... So let's use it against them!!!! If we can send 24 men to the moon during Apollo, we can at the very least deport 24 million people. Because it is a million times easier to deport someone than it is to send them to the moon...

I have heard a few people this week mention the "Bubba Effect" and also say that it could be a reason that the White House is doing certain things because they want to provoke it. Any freepers out there with some better information on this so called "bubba effect" ?

One Question I have never gotten a liberal to ever answer is this and it is a simple one: What is the Maximum percentage of Immigration per year that a country can allow and still maintain their dominant culture? They will Refuse to answer this question or they will weasel around it, it is a question like Kryptonite because it deal with hard numbers and they only deal with emotions...

What is John Kerry's role in the coverup, I heard the Beck Dump today, nothing about John Kerry meeting with a Saudi Government Official, maybe I missed it...

Got into a discussion with a libtard family member recently. Here is the gist of what I was trying to drill into his dense liberal head. The more laws one has the harder it is to enforce all the laws equally therefore laws will not be enforced and this will lead to selective enforcement, selective enforcement leads to tyranny, tyranny will lead to revolution which most often leads to even more tyranny... As he was trying to tell me that all the Tea Party wants to do is "Get rid of all laws"... I kept trying to re-iterate that if...

I am sick of everyone pronouncing the American arm of the muslim brotherhood as "Care" as if they really give a rats hind end about anyone who isn;t one of them. I especially get irked when so called conservative news organisations and newreaders pronounce the wastes as "Care". I prefer to pronounce their name as the alien sounding "Kah-Ear" as their goals are very much alein to the freedoms of other groups especially women.

I am an individual, I am a free person, I have the right to spend the fruits of my labor how I see fit! Some call it Capitalism, Some call it the Free Market..... I call it: The Freedom of Economic Choice For far too long we have allowed the other side to steal a word that means both responsibility and freedom, that word is choice. The other side has blasphemed the word choice andd bastardized it to the point of it becoming a pale shadow of it's former self. They have mutilated it to be only half itself if...

It was election eve 2012 and the Free Republic site was the most optimistic site onthe internet, Romney was going to become the next president and all seemed right with the world. Then the Next day happened and it became the most depressing place on the internet as Romney lost and all we had to look forward to was the next 4,8.12,16 years of Obama and nothing pure socialism and the kulak round ups. So I decided to leave FreeRepublic as I was getting too dperessed. Today I log into FreeRepublic, because it is like a drug and I was...

WhistleMax Inc. the makers of the "Wet Ted Willy" and the "Slick Willy" rape whistles has announcwed that it will be moving it's operation from Dearbornistan Michiganistan to the People's Republic of Boulder to help offset the loss of the gun makers who are moving out of the state. Citing the new slew of Gun laws passed by the Colorado lawmakers that have prompted the loss of gun making jobs leaving the state the CEO has announced they will be moving into Colorado as the demand for useless forms of self protection in that state have skyrocketed.

I have a challenge to my fellow freepers, find an overwhelmingly positive article about Sarah Palin written by the Mainstream Media. Hint: Don't waste your time looking for anything dated newer than August 2008. Extra bonus points if you can find a pre aug 2008 article that is positive and post Aug 2008 article that is Negative that is written by the same person, especially if the newer article contradicts the older one in several specific points!!!

Ok, thought just crossed my mind concerning religion Star Trek Series compared to religions Star Trek: TOS (The Original Series) = Judaism The bedrock of Religion, all others are based off of it, is the Bible that all above it is based off of. Star Trek: TNG (The Next Generation) = Catholicism Builds off the first series and adds a bunch of moral life lessons, can get a bit more preachy at times but a decent series. Star Trek: DS9 (Deep Space Nine) = Protestantism Builds off the first two series is somewhat more serious about it in certain areas,...

I am listening to the Blaze right now and Glen Beck was railing against common core and all of a sudden the feed went to a sorta emergency tone then after hearing about 20 seconds of that the commercials started up... Werid...

David Cameron is given a warning of the threat posed by the rise of the United Kingdom Independence Party as he enters a critical phase in the life of his government. An ICM opinion poll for The Sunday Telegraph shows that a key group of Right-of-centre voters are much more attracted to Ukip’s policies on immigration, government spending and same-sex marriage than to the Tories’ stance on the issues. This same group — made up of those who have yet to decide which of the two parties to support — also rates Ukip’s Nigel Farage as a better party leader...

Watching this onthe Blaze right now, very powerful stuff!!!!! Very Very Powerful!!! They are going over how the Democrat party has been the party of control and slavery and STILL is!!!!

Some of the Facebook pages on certain anti-2nd amendment morons have shut down the comments on them unless you are directly friended on them. Here is how you get around it: Click the little “Gear” Button, then click the “Report this Page” option then select “Hate speech or personal attack” and the option “Targets People with Disability or Disease” Example: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2995287/posts This anti-gun control freak has this facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mary-Hodge/106152966081632 But they shut down any comment on it, as she wants to get rid of veterans right's to posses their god given ability for self protection they are a practice...

Upgrade on the whole "Suicide by shooting yourself multiple times in the chest and then head"... From another thread brought up as a point that there used to be a lot of suspicious "suicides" like the ones you see in Russia where a journalist hurls them self off the top of their own apartment building when the roof access door was always locked. Or where the person who was a political dissident decided to strangle them self and then saw off their own head after shooting them self in the head multiple times but it is ruled as a "suicide"...

The White House has released a picture purporting to show President Obama "skeet shooting" at Camp David. An activity he claims he does "all the time." The White House also warns all you mischievous internet types to not mess around with the picture: "This official White House photograph is being made available only for publication by news organizations and/or for personal use printing by the subject(s) of the photograph. The photograph may not be manipulated in any way and may not be used in commercial or political materials, advertisements, emails, products, promotions that in any way suggests approval or endorsement...

One of the Idiot Liberal Talking points against the second amendment is this: "Back in the founders days they only had Muskets so it should only apply to muskets and flintlock type weapons." I am going to destroy that argument right here, right now! The 1st amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Conclusion: They didn't have the Internet, Telephones, Television...

With Obama wanting to recruit the Doctors of this country to his his Brownshirt work for him keeping tabs on his political enemies are we seeing a new term in constantly growing "Dictator-tinary" that is Obamunism. Behold the "Doc-Stapo" you friendly family doctor who has been recruited to become an agent of the government who will now become a spy working against your second amendment rights. Now whenever you enter the Doctor's office with the flu or cold or just a regular checkup you will have channel the behavior patterns of an East German Citizen during the cold war who...

Apparently Alex Jones is supposed to be on Pier One Import's show.... Unless Morgan chickens out... Anyone else looking forward to this for popcorn value........

Ok, I have a squirrel problem, and I am needing some recomendations for what to get to shoot them with, namely I want to use a pellet/bb gun. I want to get one that is powerful enough to put them down quickly but not too expensive. Any recomendations?

Unless you are a dead democrat voter stuck in a graveyard, you will notice an awful LOT of businesses are laying people off right for the last three days. It finally hit me, is Atlas starting to shrug or is it merely shuddering only to fall asleep again? Is this a sign of shrugging or is it a sign of the dragon shuddering only to roll over and fall back asleep again?

How does one get a list of voters, specifically one that is obviously invalid like Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Dead people, Illegal Aliens, etc.... I think all these fine voting folks need to get an EBT card, and Obama Phone and a 10 year bill me later Subscription to the New york Slimes.....

If the dead can vote... If the Dead can vote then the dead gotta be able to eat and do many other things that a normal person can do, well except hold a job and be a productive memeber of society. The Dead Gotta Eat... It just occured to me, all those dead voters need to eat too, I mean if you are dead and you just spent a long election season voting several times for your favorite democrat president, the food stamp president and you get bupkiss for your your vote, well nuts to that, why not sign your...

It just occured to me, all those dead voters need to eat too, I mean if you are dead and you just spent a long election season voting several times for your favorite democrat president, the food stamp president and you get bupkiss for your your vote, well nuts to that, why not sign your corpse-y self up for some government cheese? I mean if dead people gotta vote, dead people gotta eat too? If Obama is gonna double down in his second term, why not double down on his food stamp numbers by making sure that his favorite voting...

What happens on December 17th... The electors certify the election, this means that Obama cannot do something completely off the wall bonkers UNTIL that date, then he can do anything he wants, becasue he doesn't even need a supreme court judge to swear him in, any ol' socialist RDDB judge will do if he wants in Janurary... We have a brief respite until the Lame 4 years begin....

For the head of Libya's national election commission, the method by which Americans vote is startling in that it depends so much on trust and the good faith of election officials and voters alike. "It's an incredible system," said Nuri K. Elabbar, who traveled to the United States along with election officials from more than 60 countries to observe today's presidential elections as part of a program run by the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES). Your humble Cable guy visited polling places with some of the international officials this morning. Most of them agreed that in their countries, such...

I have been seeing these ads on the Blaze that are seemingly for Agenda 21, what the heck is that all about? Anyone know?

Beck just said that if the one news agency that doesn't have the E-mail doesn't come forth with it and does it based off politics... he will expose them!

There is one thing I noticed about the Romney Yard signs in my Neighborhood. They look like someone took an Obama Yard Sign and then plastered a "Romney Ryan" sign over the top of them... As if it is a subliminal suggestion that, "yeah I used to support Obama in '08, but now I am sick of him and now support Romney" Obama Sign: It is as if they intentionally chose the white border and blue border and then put another white box inside it that says Romney/Ryan..

An elementary school teacher in Chesapeake, Va. has been charged with simple assault after a parent claimed her daughter’s hand was cut open as a result of the teacher yanking her arm aggressively while trying to teach students an “Islamic hand sign.” Officer Leo Kosinski, a spokesman for the Chesapeake Police Department, told TheBlaze that Tara Harris was criminally charged with a misdemeanor on Oct. 11 and released on a summons. The case is currently under investigation. “It’s still a criminal charge. It happened at the school and it involved a student,” Kosinski said. The police department could not release...

Any notice that during the debate Obama said that the middle class has been unfairly burdened by higher tax rates for the last 20 years, ie. 1992 - 2012 and then went on a few sentances later to say that he would roll back taxes on the middle class to what they were during the Clinon era... well the clinton era, 1992-2000 was DURING the 20 years that Obama siad the middle class had a heavy tax burden.... ooooops!

The one that that stood out for me was the fact that even in the RNC primary we had at least 1 or 2 Libertarian questions a debate from the "peanut gallery". We never even got ONE question like: "What do you think the role of the Federal Government should be?" "What percentage of taxes on ANYONE is too much?" "If the question in tax policy is fairness, and the same percentage of a tax being mathmatically fair, why isn't a FLAT TAX an option in your opinion?" "We talk about the war on terror, what about the war on...

Ok, so I had some time to kill this morning and I walked into a 7-11 to find a clever promotion for the election season. They have red and blue coffee cups, blue for Obama and red for Romney. The thought crossed my mind to get an Obama coffee cup and fill it up with Fruit Punch as it would be the "Obama Kool-aide" and then fill the Romney cup up with ice and load it up with decaf coffee loaded with all sorts of cream and flavoring because Romney isn't exactly a regular cup of coffee so it would...

Ross Perot, the billionaire who shook up the 1992 presidential campaign, has largely remained silent since his emergence on the nation’s political stage nearly two decades ago and as he emerges from the shadows (in part to drum up interest in his forthcoming autobiography) he’s remaining silent about one more thing: The current top candidates running for office.

This is Bon, he is a racist. From Peter Boyles Morning Radio Show.

I want more government, local and state. I want more taxes, paid to local and state governments. I want more bureaucrats, to work at local and state jobs. I want more government spending, at city hall and the state capital. I want more regulations at the local and state level. I want more power given to the local government and state government. I am such a progressive/socialist...... Wait there is one condition.... For all the power given to the local and state governments stated above, a proportional amount of power (IF NOT MORE) must be taken away from the FEDERAL...

So looks like the EPA is taking a swipe at Romney, which is funny because I thought ads by the government couldn;t be overtly political.... Oh well I guess them insinuating that due to the "higher efficiency standards" pushed down everyone's throat that the dog on Romney's car will have to stay there even longer.... This is a stupendously stupid low blow by the EPA... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgs1XH3PqEM

From all the people in the media whining about it and trying to inject doubt into romney's camp by saying it is a bad decision they just laid their cards on the table. They are now more afraid than ever that romney will win.
