One Year Later of Shock and Awe
 

 

We saw the murderous dictator fall
we cheered, we sang
with glad refrain
as the statue of Saddam the
madman, Hussein toppled

by Iraqi people whom he
oppressed and tortured
gassed his own people
maimed little children
with no compassion or mercy

From palace to palace he¹d run
hide with those bloody
thug sons by his side
until the day they met the
business end of a soldiers gun
that ended their ³fun.²

Evil spawn of evil he...
found living in a spider hole
that describes the end
of his reign and his
people will determine
his plight - not his way
sneaking around at night
filling the people with fear
oh no, he will get to hear
the charges of his murderous crimes
and stand before the judges of his kind
spend the rest of his miserable life on earth
in better conditions than he meted out...

Freedom lives now for Iraqi people
conditions improve with a helping hand
from nations across the worlds¹ lands
 

They are learning to trust again
and smile, study in schools,
work for their livelihood
unhindered by the bloody dictator Hussein
Iraqi people are free to be...

We had a small, but always enthusiastic, crowd at our Saturday shoot.
Everyone got to blow away as much of the country side as they wanted.

I think we've finally found a shooting range which will treat us as American citizens exercising our Second Amendment rights instead of idiots intent on killing as much of the populance as we can.
I can't say enough for the hospitality of the Bullet Hole Rifle Range in San Antonio.

After the shoot we enjoyed some good food and good company:


Then our guest of honor made his appearance with his Nana and his mommy:

The Termite is just a little angel. I kept thinking Eaker was going to try and bring him home with us! :-)

The Termite was in an unusually bad mood yesterday.
He had stayed at the zoo for six hours the day before, and he was worn out.
I'll take that little tyke anyway I can get him!
Y'all were thinking what I always think everytime I see him:
"I wonder if they'd notice if I stole him?"
LOL!

I'm glad y'all could make it, Rika!
And I'm glad you got to hold the guest of honor!

OH, MAN!!

I didn't see you when you took that picture!

That one should be in every gun mag in the country!
It also should be shoved in the face of every anti-gun nut in this country who don't like guns because they're "dangerous" to our children!

Thanks, Eaker!

YeeeHaa!!!
That was one darn fine shoot and Mister Termite looked GREAT!
I bet that little buckeroo will be out-shooting us all before long.

Somewhere 'long about Sealey we passed by unanimous acclaim a resolution that
next time we'd get us some hotel rooms in San Antonio so as not to have to be
clock-watching while we're there. I'd rather have stayed 'till dark!!!

I have to agree with you about the Bullethole range, it suits our style to a "T"...
The folks are nice and they more or less leave us alone.

I'm ready to head on back there, you just give the word.. and thanks for all your efforts!

"save a bit of ammo for our arrival!"

I've found that the gun shops have plenty.

We need some more shooters down here.
I'm beginning to think we've got a bunch of closet anti-gun nuts.

This is the gang to teach her that's for sure.

They've been teaching me for a year and a half now and I've come a long way. Pistols have always given me fits, for some reason, couldn't hit a decent target to save a life. Of course... if COB's H&K .223 ever goes missing, he does know where to start looking for it. hehehe
