This Sign led the Pack for most Politically Incorrect Sign of the Year. Harris County Sheriff Mike Jolley posted a most epic, pro-carry sign in front of his sheriff’s office. This has taken the community and online world by storm. The sign read “Our citizens have concealed weapons. If you kill someone, we might kill you back. We have ONE jail and 356 cemeteries. Enjoy your stay!” Fox news asked about the meaning of the sign, the Sheriff points out that the citizens are armed, and if you commit murder in his county, well, the citizens might just kill you...

Former independent counsel Ken Starr questions whether the Mueller report can be written in a "fair and balanced" way given his choice of staff. (snip) "Now why the concern? Because of Bob Mueller, who I hold in very high regard, his choice of staff. So many questions have been raised about that staff and their leanings and so forth. And they've had the opportunity, without any kind of cross-examination, any kind of check, any kind of balance, to write whatever they want to write. And that, I think, legitimately raises concern of fairness and balance," Starr said.

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Today, the curtain closes on Act I. – Attorney General William Barr will release what the Washington Post describes as a “lightly redacted” version of the Mueller Report this morning, and Democrats are already going berserk. Because of course they are. They’re Democrats – that’s what they do. Prominent congressional Dems like Jabba the Nadler, Mad Maxine Waters, Da Nang Dick Blumenthal and Bug-Eyed Adam Schiff all rushed to the nearest TV camera last night to squeal about the fact that Mr. Barr will hold a press conference prior to releasing the...

Mohammad Javad Zarif, Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs, organized a meeting with senior commanders of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), including Mohammad Ali Jafari, Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC, and Qasem Soleimani, Commander of the Qods Force. Quoted by state television, Zarif said: “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and several deputies met with the Chief Command of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC has played a major role in maintaining the country’s security.” Trying to save face, Jafari said, “U.S. forces in the region cannot take any military action against[Iran]. However, if they take action, they will face an immediate, serious...

America is a land that bans books, has political prisoners and condemns people to a form of internal exile where they cannot have a job or maintain a normal life. Ten years ago, if someone said Americans would lose their jobs because they liked something on social media, only the aluminum foil hat types would have believed it. Such things were considered impossible just a decade ago. In the 1980’s, these were the sorts of things that happened in the Soviet Union, which was why communism was considered evil. Yet, here we are, seeing things we thought impossible not so...

The staccato of continuous “bombshells” coinciding with the downfall the Russia-collusion hoax obscured one key element of the story explaining how the hoaxsters rehabilitated the indispensable lie about ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen’s alleged “payoff” of Russian “hackers.” Once again, Fusion GPS is likely behind another dirty trick designed to bring down President Trump. One can almost hear the crisp “pop” of the latches of the attaché case we are supposed to imagine Cohen opened to reveal neat stacks of euro bills at a hotel somewhere in Prague. The mind can visualize Cohen pivoting the case so its open mouth is...

The Afternoon Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Some mid-day short takes on the passing scene… If Eric Swalwell gets elected to the presidency in 2020, he will be living proof that you can’t spell POTUS without the “POS.” – First, he threatened to nuke gun owners on his Twitter feed. Next, he proposed a plan to use Australia and New Zealand as his role model countries for his plans to confiscate your guns. Now, the farcical college frat party planner from California tells the execrable CNN host Jake Tapper that he would send gun owners to prison should...

VIDEO Parts of the Spanish language Joe Biden 2020 campaign commercial which was secretly recorded recently in Fort Lauderdale have been leaked. Fortunately, the DUmmie FUnnies was able to obtain portions of this commercial which are presented here.

It ain’t what happens here that’s important. It’s what’s happening back there. Lieutenant, you’d hardly know there’s a war on. It’s in the papers, and the college kids run around screaming about it, but that’s it. Airplane drivers still drive their airplanes. Businessmen still run their businesses. College kids still go to college. It’s like nothing really happened, except to other people. It isn’t touching anybody but us. —Staff Sergeant Gilliland, “Fields of Fire,” by James Webb. All of us in or recently out of military uniform have experienced the reflexive thanks of the nation. We are thanked for our...

We know that Bernie Sanders supporters tend towards the young. No surprise, the young have always leaned toward liberal ideas - and yes, even socialism – before being mugged by reality.But wait, this time there’s more. This generational cohort’s support for socialism, which keeps showing up with each new poll, is something more than youthful idealism. It’s the result of years of indoctrination disguised as education. The propagandization of America may well be complete.How else to explain this recent Zogby poll? Both Gen Z and Millennials think that diversity is more important than merit in the workplace.As does Gen X....

As President Trump threatens to transport illegal aliens to sanctuary cities, suddenly, many on the Left are feeling significantly less generous and magnanimous regarding illegal immigration. Colloquially, this is known as "skin in the game." When people have no skin in the game, then the issue is "no skin off their back." Cher, for example, was gung ho when it came to immigration, as she had no skin in the game. However, when she had some skin in the game, her position suddenly became more conservative.

Waco Biker Dismissals an Attempt to Avoid Millions in Lawsuits. In the interests of justice, on April 2, 2019 all remaining charges related to the May 17, 2015 Twin Peaks shootings in Waco, Texas have been dismissed by the newly elected McLennan County District Attorney Barry Johnson. These dismissals are a significant victory in the history of motorcycle club culture and the fight against motorcycle profiling and discrimination. Although this concludes the criminal chapter of Twin Peaks, the legal battles are far from over. There are currently over 100 civil rights claims pending and the official press release announcing the...

Most people go to college to get a job. Recreation is an added benefit on top of getting a job. Education comes second to recreation in terms of hours spent studying. That is the great secret of a college education. It’s the secret everybody within the walls of the university knows but isn’t allowed to really say. It’s the topic that’s covered over drinks at the campus bar, and it’s what the “cool” professor tells students in class. Whether or not university marketers and employees want to believe this secret is irrelevant. Maybe universities should be a place for liberal...

Monday’s horrific fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris shocked viewers everywhere, as they witnessed the horrific destruction and collapse of its iconic spire, before firefighters were able to get it under control. While many prominent figures tweeted concern for the cathedral sacred to over a billion Catholics across the globe, controversial Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) put out a bizarre tweet that rubbed many the wrong way. “Art and architecture have a unique ability to help us connect across our differences and bring people together in important ways,” posted Rep. Omar. “Thinking of the people of Paris and...

Think you can handle the recoil from the largest-caliber rifle in the world? Do you like shooting big cartridges that has a huge kick? Probably one of the biggest cartridge in the world is the .950 JDJ. It is .95 inches in diameter, and weighs a stout 3600 grains (8 ounces, half a pound) and uses 240 grains of powder to push this bullet at 2,100 fps. The bullet costs $40 a piece. (ouch!) The guys from "Knight Rifles" had a chance to take this out to the range to shoot one. This bullet generates 38,685 lbs/ft of energy. It...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Oh, noes, not predicaments! – Y’all, we have a bunch of really awful people finding themselves in “predicaments” today – aren’t you sad? So, so, so sad for these terrible, sleazy people? Yeah, me neither. The first bunch of execrable jackasses who find themselves in a predicament today are the leaders of the Democrat Party, and they’re in their current predicament thanks to what Bloomberg describes as “a sliver” of The Commie’s voter base, who are in what the media likes to call “Bernie or bust mode.” These voters are so embittered...

This is a pretty basic post. It covers a selection of micro-videos that I have collected involving Chinese weapons systems and their use and application. These are pretty short videos. If you want to obtain a more comprehensive study of these weapons systems perhaps you should go to Janes and check out the "official" published data. You-tube has some videos along these lines of course. Although, it's limited pickin's. As such, if you don't like what is provided herein you can go out to You-tube and see what they have to offer. It will be a little different from what...
