Boob Armor

One last thing…

Just so that we are clear, historical artwork of Queen Isabella of Castile and Queen Elizabeth at Tilbury shows them in boob armor.

 

Today, poor-fitting body armor is a problem for female police officers.  Armor that doesn’t take into account boobs fails to cover correctly and puts the officer’s life at risk.

So much so the NIJ certifies male and female armor separately.

Modern female soft armor is almost a corset, with a built-in sports bra like system.

It took until 2020 for the US military to start fielding female-friendly body armor

Quite a lot of engineering goes into it.

So yeah, boob armor is real and not just the machinations of horny, neck-beard, virgin fan-artists.

More Mandalorian controversy bulls**t

Things have really gotten ugly on the Gina Carano vs. Woke Twitter front.

#FireGinaCarano was a trending hashtag earlier Sunday.

The Left has appointed itself the arbiter of what is an acceptable view to hold and what’s not, and that wrongthinkers should be driven from society.

Again, what did she do?

She refused to put her female pronouns in her Twitter bio and when pressed on it, put “boop/bob/beep.”

Honestly, is that any more ridiculous than zie/zir/zim or any of the other solipsistic newspeak pronouns that have been foisted upon us by Tumblr and Women/Gener/Queer Studies professors?

It is only because everyone knew she wasn’t serious about them.  She mocked their religion.

One point that keeps coming up is that Disney asked the star of The Mandalorian to take down one of his posts from after the election.

If you are at all curious as to what Pascal posted and was asked to take down, this is it:

 

Well then…

Associating 73 million people, and by popular opinion, nearly half the country with Nazis seems a tad bit overblown.  Generally, insulting half of your fan base is a bad idea in any medium.  Just ask the NFL.

You probably didn’t hear about this because Conservatives are so used to be called Nazis that it barely fazes us anymore and we don’t take to social media to get an actor fired for doing it.

That leads to perspective-free bullshit like this:

Well, I enjoy watching The Mandalorian despite knowing that Mando is a privileged Socialist who thinks I’m a Nazi.

Pascal is the son of two doctors who were supporters of and relatives to Marxist Chilean President Salvador Allende.  They received political sanctuary in Denmark before moving to the United States.

But it’s okay to be a Marxist who hates half the country if you’re Latino and don’t have problematic views.

 

I think The Mandalorian is exceptionally well done.  Despite the politics of the cast, I watch the show.  The Left is totally incapable of doing that.  They demand total ideological conformity at every level.  But that makes them tolerant and everyone who disagrees with them a Nazi.

Your mission should you choose to accept it…

Become a Certified NRA Range Safety Officer.

I am right now doing the self-review of what could have been done better at the SWFla Blogshoot and at the top of the list is Get More Safety Officers.

Kevin Creighton and yours truly were the only ones with the credentials and one of the requirements from the range (and a lot of other ranges) is that you need to have an NRA  RSO to be left alone or at least, not under draconian rules.

I was done in in less than 2 hours because of the heat (I am heat sensitive after two dances with heath strokes) and basically we ended up having a RSO and a half keeping an eye on the shooters who all acted very safe give or take a thing here and there.

Take the plunge. It is a one day course and amazingly, you will learn a lot of stuff. Do it for events like the SW Fla Blog Shoot that may pop up or that you now can help create because you have your certification.

Find a class and get your certification.

Not all criticisms of masking are equal

I haven’t seen anybody on the Left criticize Michigan Imams for this?

Shutting down Synagogues and welding the gates to Jewish cemeteries, on the other hand, is just fine.
