Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
This is a memo to the Democrats from a Left-wing polling firm:
It has nothing to do with science or health.
It has everything to do with polling numbers and perception.
The polls have turned against severe Covid restrictions so now the Democrats will as well.
It was never about your health but their political agenda.
I want a reckoning.
And the Brady Bunch remembers it a bit distorted, so I had to intervene.

Ukraine is being invaded.
We are on the verge of major war in Europe.
The Ukrainian President and former President are defending the capital city with AKs.
Our President is taking the weekend off.
I wonder what America would be like if we had leaders that were as resolute in defending our country as Ukraine’s are.

What kick my funny bone is that the Russians are supposed to be the experts on urban combat resistance given their history with the Nazis. I guess they forgot those lessons.

I do believe they are here to stay next door. They sound like European rush hour traffic.

I have heard about stuff like this since last night. Why are they not having fuel supplies coming with them? Why are they running out of fuel? My uneducated guess is that the Soviet Russian army thought they would be unopposed and refueling from the local supply by the end of day 2. Plus, something they must have learned watching the Taliban fighting the US is that if a ragtag POS army could take out fuel supply convoys without much trouble, their own efforts to send fuel would be decimated by trained Ukranian soldiers.
So, either right now fuel is being sent from the rear at the most expedited way and screw the casualties and loses or the thought of going full razing the towns and salting the ground is being decided. I do believe Putin is the kind of asshole that would go “If I can’t have it, nobody can.”
Even before my coffee.
Next thing you know, Pedo Joe will be sending them a couple billion bucks in aid and the obligatory pallet of meth pipes for their continuing efforts for world peace and understanding among humans.
