Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Will history repeat itself?

There are barriers that common sense tell you should not be breached. But when you are living in the era of the Politicization Of Everything, some don’t care and will go through those barriers because they think it will advance their cause.

Sports used to be one of those things people would put their political differences aside and just watch for the sake of pure enjoyment.  In the US that meant that the NFL games would be a respite from the idiocies of Washington, the politicians and assorted pundits. But since some crappy quarterback with an even crappier Afro decided to bring into the field what should have remained outside, now the escapism of an afternoon of football has been shattered.

But at the risk of destroying the image of what was supposed to be a New Era in race relations and struggle for the good and daring Circumstances (and assorted bullshit) I need to remind people that this path was already walked upon in the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City.

The Civil Rights Movement was at that moment was popular and well supported. But the fact that those two idiots went political during the games that were designed from the beginning to bring people together while ignoring politics and warfare was seen as despicable and out-of-place by many, but not all and some important voices supported their actions even gong as far as threatening to convert every sporting event into a political demonstration.

Four years later at the Olympic games in Munich, when we found out that somebody else found the idea of injecting politics to sporting events to gather attention very much appealing: The terrorist organization known as Black September.

The gates were destroyed after that. Later on we had the boycotts by both the US and the Soviets and the appeal of a politics-free Olympic was shattered forever. The aura of the games being above the mundane and daily events, that we could somehow place ourselves in Olympus and watch pure sports for the sake of sports itself was dead and would never come back. I fear the NFL is already on that path…and they deserve it.

Not saying that we will be attacked by terrorists, but at the same time I cannot say it will not happen. It is too tempting for some deranged assholes not to take  chance to disrupt an event or something related to the NFL or even MLB because the OK and blessing have been given by the Intelligentsia and even the NFL itself.

I would say that future games are to be officially considered Stupid Places which we must avoid to visit lest we win a Stupid Prize.

The A-Team (Millennial version)

Blame J.Kb. for this one. Feel free to share.

If you have a Social Justice “problem.”
if no one else gives a shit about your stupid problem, 
you can probably find them in a Starbucks,
maybe you can hire the A-Team: Millennial Version.

Moving the Goalposts over a Minefield.

According to the source, “peaceful protesters” in Berkeley are handing this to people.

I like the veiled threat of “for your safety.”  But it is more than just a restriction on the First Amendment Rights but also they are trying to reduce the gathering of evidence that can be used against them. One example is the Bike Lock attacker:

Eric Clanton was outed by members of 4Chan (or as they call themselves “weaponized autism”) and eventually he was arrested by the reluctant Berkeley PD and charged with four counts of assault with a deadly weapon, a felony, with the special allegation of causing great bodily injury.

So, it is in their best interest to threaten you with bodily harm if you take pictures or videos of them behaving badly. They are already after the MSM, much to the popular Schadenfreude which are somehow behaving like the first time a wife gets a dose of backhand from her obviously abusive husband. And as such, they will still defend them because they are nice but misunderstood kids fighting for good thing.

Screw ’em. I have pity for the real abused wives. They can beat the shit out of all the Media Idiots defending Antifa for all I care.

Praise the Lord and Church Carry.

One person was killed and eight others wounded Sunday after a man in a ski mask opened fire following a church service in Antioch. The shooter, identified as Emanuel Kidega Samson, a 25-year-old Rutherford County man, accidentally shot himself after he was confronted by an armed member of the congregation and is being treated at the hospital, according to Metro Nashville Police.

The #Gunsense idiots like Shannon Watts and Ladd Everitt keep Fake Asking “Why would anybody need to carry in Church?”

We wish we wouldn’t have to, but there are always idiots that  will not respect the House of God and needed to be reminded that they are not only not free to do the Devil’s Work but there will be Righteous People ready to stand and defend His Children.

And that is why we carry.

Fixing the Federal Fix in Jerry Cans

With Hurricane Irma a bad memory and Hurricane Maria past our latitude and no prediction of turning to South Florida, I decided (read: the missus ordered) to start putting crap away  and return to normal madness.

The generator is already cleaned, emptied of gas and with fresh oil, but the jerry cans of gas not used went to refill the family fleet. If you have one of the new federally mandate jerry cans and have used it, you have cussed plenty to the bureaucrats who one day decided  “fuck the laws of physics, we are doing it my way”  and made the cans a pain in the ass to use. You cannot pour gasoline and not think the poor container is choking itself to death from all the gurgling. And it is a slow transfer of fuel as a reply from a Freedom of Information Act or an NFA stamp.  basically the Federal Government in another moment of bureaucratic stupidity reformulated the gas can into something that makes it almost impossible and even dangerous t use.

I am not a traditionalist so I enjoy the plastic containers. Something about bouncing around, not rusting and light weight appeals to me.

I found a fix for the struggling pour & lack of speed in Amazon: Fuel Gas Can Jug Vent Cap.

If you look carefully, there is a small section on the back of the handle that is flat or very close to it. You will need a 1/2 inch drill bit or spade bit (they tell you use one step lower, but trust me you will need the 1/2 inch) and a plastic or rubber mallet to drive that sucker home.

It takes but a couple of minutes to install and saves you a bunch of time and aggravation.

Of course, you should mind your local and federal laws regarding the proper use of the jerry cans. This post is for informational purposes only and what you do with the info is up to you.

The SHARE act seems to have a good chance to become law.

Why I say that? Check the latest blatant lie from Bloomberg’s Everytown:

This gigantic pile of dung is so fresh is still steaming.

They do hate HR 3668, don’t they? It looks like a pretty good bill that concentrates several bills into one and I have to admit I am not up in all of it other than a quick glance. Nothing raises flags with me, but I’ll leave deeper research for later or foe somebody who may have been keeping an eye on it.
