Since it is the creation of Taylor Sheridan, who already has under his belt the script of Sicario and is the creator of both Yellowstone and The Mayor of Kingstown, I decided to pay for Paramount+ and take the chance it was in the same pedigree.

Holy crap, it is damned good. It tells the story of the Dutton family crossing the plains with a caravan. It is narrated by the Elsa who is the daughter of James and Margaret Dutton played by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. And if you are wondering if a couple of Country singers can pull a good acting job, holy crap they do amazingly well. And then you have Sam Elliot doing perhaps his best acting and that is a lot to say if you have followed the guy’s career.

First, amazing script. No punches pulled and great story which makes for good watching. This quote is from the last episode “Fangs of Freedom”:

I think cities have weakened us as a species. Mistakes have no consequences there. Step into the road without looking, and the carriage merely stops or swerves. The only consequence, an angry driver. But here, there can be no mistakes because here doesn’t care. The river doesn’t care if you can swim. The snake doesn’t care how much you love your children, and the wolf has no interest in your dreams. If you fail to beat the current, you will drown. If you get too close, you will be bitten. If you are too weak, you will be eaten.

Production values, scenery, weapons, etc. so far to my untrained eye is top notch and accurate. It feels very real even if you know is all a made-up story.

With the total lackluster of decent TV in broadcast, cable and streaming, this is one of the few jewels for you to enjoy.

I was too young for the Venezuelan movie theater rating system to see it when it came out back way then. After that I saw it once or twice in crappy movie houses and I believe they were 16 mm copies rather than a full 30 mm theatrical release film. Other than that, I have only seen The Godfather in TV screens and I have The Godfather – The Coppola Restoration Blu-ray. So, watching The Godfather fully restored into 4K UHD in the huge screen is something I have to do.

Holy fucking shit!

Martin Luther King Jr was perhaps the most important civil rights activist of the 20th Century.

George Floyd was a criminal who ODed under a cop during a traffic stop and who’s death was used to foment riots for the malicious and calculated purpose of making Donald Trump look bad.

I guess this is a Freudian slip by Biden that shows he doesn’t actually care about MLK or civil rights, but whatever helped take out Donald Trump was most important.

It must be his senility that caused him to admit that.

But seriously, what the actual fuck?!

Just a few today

ALERT – @telegram channel exposes a young man who states “I’m a synagogue shooter” while holding up what looks like an AK-47, adding “I hate Jews and I hate ni**ers".

I have no additional information but it is important to take this shit seriously.

Be prepared.

Be armed.

Be on the lookout.

You are your first and last lines of defense.

Owner of the @warriors🏀 says he doesn’t care about the Uyghurs.

The conversation goes downhill from there.@chamath…

– questions whether a genocide is actually happening
– says the CCP isn’t a dictatorship
– says the US is no better than the CCP https://t.co/qAwi7hUPvo

He puts Chinese money over Uyghur lives.

As long as his team gets royalties from sales of merchandise in China he doesn’t care what crimes against humanity they commit.

We all knew this, of course, but the honesty he has in admitting it is freeing.

From now on, any time an NBA player shots on America and tires to manipulate us with Woke platitudes, simply refer them to this video and tell them to go fuck themselves.

I believe that armed self-defense is an extension of the Christian’s mandate to protect the innocent, to “watch over widows and orphans in their distress.” No one doubts that a policeman who carries a gun and watches over society can do such things and still be a Christian: Why, therefore, is there any doubt that an armed individual like me can carry a gun and watch over a small portion of society (my family) and yet still have a deep, abiding faith in God?

I like to say I am the most peaceful man you will ever know, but I am not a Pacifist.  Not understanding that difference can be hurtful to your health and ability to remain above room temperature. This does not counter the doctrine of the Catholic Church or any real Christian belief. It does piss off something fierce the Lefties using alleged Christian values and political jump points for the most antichrist behavior they can think of.
