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.

And it got the scope

At the end of the day, I went with the SIG Whiskey3, 4-12X40mm BDC-1 and the SIG rings.

Some of you had recommended to go that magnification and then I got a fantastic deal directly from SIG Optics for both well under the $200 limit and I could not pass that up.

And no the scope is not properly mounted. I just set it for pic purposes and I will have my BiL do the dirty work sometime next week…. well, he did volunteer of sorts.

Report to follow.

PS: This is the reticle.

UF or when you are a whore of the Fed Gov, you do what your pimp dictates.

UF Health to Comply With Federal Executive Order on Vaccination mandating all its employees to be vaccinated by Wednesday, November 24, 2021.

What caught my attention is their excuse/explanation for doing so:

The issues UF Health is facing is that Governor DeSantis has called for a special session of the Legislature to counter mandates and has initiated litigation against the Biden administration. UF has let itself a sort of “way out” that really is not if they fire somebody because of the jab.

I truly love that sentence:

In the meantime, thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and for doing your part for the Greater Good as we follow the federal order.

Now the question to be asked is What is the “Greater Good? The health of the people, the rights of the employees of the $1.6 billion of taxpayer’s monies going into the treasury of UF Health?

The New Stupid/Crime magnet: Airbnb rentals.

Stories like this are slowly cropping up more and more.

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) – A 21-year-old man was shot and killed during or after a big party at an Airbnb in East Nashville late Thursday night, Metro Police said.

Police said at least four people were shot at 210 North Ninth Street. Police confirmed the man killed in the shooting was 21-year-old Robert D. Howard, who was found dead at the scene.

I understand the appeal of Airbnbs: Cheap, conveniently easy to rent and more “private” than your hotel room and lacks the control a hotel chain would have over your behavior and less hidden charges. And I am sure that 99% of all parties held in locations like this are without incident other than a pissed off neighbor complaining about the noise.

But bad stuff will happen if a party goes out of control and for some reason, incident s in these rentals seem to be on the rise. Any “house” part will attract the less than desirables which may lead to somebody taking a trip to the morgue.

The other thing that bothers me about Airbnbs is lock security. Hotel locks get (or should) automatically reprogrammed every time a guest’s check-out time is reached but I doubt that very expensive hotel system is applied to short-term rentals. So, unless the owner has a new digital lock with a keypad and bothers to change it after every rental, you are talking about standard hard keys for a lock I doubt pretty much it will be changed which means any previous occupant could have made a duplicate. And that ain’t kosher in my book of paranoia.

If I am forced to stay at one for more than one night, I’ll observe the locks installed and make a beeline to the nearest home improvement store, buy a couple of lock cylinders and change them just in case

Anyway, I will add Airbnbs to the list of “Stupid Places.”

So what will happen to Alec Baldwin?

So far what the investigation is showing points to a monumental and repeated collection of avoidable crew ups that led to the death of one person.

My prediction? There will be a great show in the Media but he won’t be going to jail anytime soon or ever.  As for Hannah Gutierrez Reed, (the set armorer) she will be legally sacrificed to appease the public. Mind you, she is also responsible for the death and wounding, but she is not the only one truly bearing blame. She is young, took on a responsibility she was clearly not prepared to take and people died: She must ne punished, but should not be the only one.

Have you noticed that Gun Control groups have gone silent or very muted on this incident? At bets they have released some milquetoast statement about the danger of guns or simply gone dark about it. The furious voices that keep demanding lengthy prison times for any negligent shooting suddenly remembered that they had an appointment with the Vietnamese manicurist and could not tweet an equally demanding post against Baldwin. Then again they do depend on the Hollywood Dancing Monkeys for access and donation, so they are very reluctant to crap n their beds.

I believe that we won’t be hearing about this case by thanksgiving.

And that is the country we are living in: Two different Justice systems now rule the land and do not expect the same kind mercies if you screw up.

New York City’s vaccine mandate is a pile of trash

These city employees think Mayor Bill de Blasio’s vaccine mandate is pure garbage — and they should know!

Sanitation workers outraged over the order to get inoculated against COVID-19 are letting trash pile up across Staten Island and in parts of Brooklyn — and the head of their union said Wednesday that he’s on their side.

The protesting workers are engaging in a rule-book slowdown that includes returning to their garages for things like gloves or gas so collections don’t get finished, sources said.

A neighbor who identified herself as Julie added, “What the city is doing is unfair.”
“I am coming from Russian federation and this is deja vu,” she said.
“People should not be forced by state to take medicine, because state says, ‘Do this or starve!’ They should be free. That is why I came here 20 years ago.”

Trash is piling up in NYC and sanitation workers blame de Blasio’s vaccine mandate

And while they are about to fire people left and right in states belonging to the COVIDreich, Florida is singing a different tune:

 

I still believe he won’t run for President just yet, but then again another year of Pederast In Chief may drive the country deeper in economic and societal disarray to the point he may have to step up to the plate.
