Obama's Middle East

Thank you Obama for what you have given us - war in the Middle East.   No defense in Libya, unarmed Marines in Egypt.  Now we are attacked in multiple other countries.  Obama set us up.  And this is an act of war folks.  An Embassy is US soil, and an ambassador was killed.  I know the Liberals don't get it but this is the start of the next big war. .  . and you can't blame Bush for this one. . . .

And they want Obama to apologize to them for the movie.

I am all for freedom of religion but why is it only the Islamist that kill folks over movies?  You don't see any other religion killing folks over a move or a drawing.  Time for the savages to learn fear.

Obama needs to get some guts and say NO, IT FREE SPEECH, deal with it!  Then he needs to park a carrier group or two within striking distance of these places.  You don't have to like the movie, you don't have to watch it, but you can not ban it, and you can not apologize for it.

They seem to only understand fear and force, so it is time to show them.  We need to get rid of Obama in November and put in someone who will defend us. . . but I guess we will have to do with Romney.  The US is now seen as weak by our enemies in the Middle East and this is proof of it.

It is time for the drones and the air force to make an example of a town or two for killing our Ambassador.  They need to pay and dearly.  Don't risk ground troops, we don' t need boots on the ground, we need flattened buildings and to tell them we will do it again if they attack us.  They want to live by fear, we can do that.  Obama has shown once again appeasement does not work it only makes our enemies brave and willing to attack us.

Time to introduce the middle east to MAD even if it will really only be one sided.  Whet do you call one sided assured destruction?  We need to show them, they can name it later. . . .

Obama or Carter 2

I would like to take a moment and thank POTUS Obama for making the world a much more dangerous place, and doing his best to support our enemies in the Middle East.

His actions have directly led to further de-stabilizing of the entire region.

His actions, or lack of them as POTUS have shown the thugs over there that he will bow to them and be more concerned about hurting their feelings than protecting our interests and people in the area.

He has failed to do his primary job. . .

Now they know him, they have attacked two embassies and nothing has happened. . . Hell in his speech he never said a thing about Egypt.  He is weak, they know it. . .

His failure to show strength and to support Israel have now put us on the edge of war in the Middle East.  I am surprised it took this long for them to move against us.  I am sure more is coming folks. . ..

Obama will make Carter and Iran look like the good old days at this rate.  Just wait, gas will go up, he will not act, we will lose more folks over there, lose more governments friendly to us, and be much worse off when this is over. . .

And the media and Obama supporters will find a way to not admit the truth. . . their god can not be wrong but he is.  And we will pay the bill.

Add to this that he is sending millions if not billions of our tax dollars to Egypt and Libya to buy their friendship.  They are taking our money and killing our people. . . and Obama will now apologize to them for getting in the way of their bullets because it has to be our fault, not theirs.

He is still unfit for the job, and it shows.  The big question now is how much damage can he due to us before November, and how can we fix it after he is out of office.  Romney is not my first choice to deal with all this, but he is the only other choice we have. . . face it, a third party still can not win in the USA, so we need to get Obama out of office, and hope Romney can show the back bone needed to get us some respect in the world.

The world is not a nice safe place. . .  you can't buy friends, only share interests and keep the rest aware that we fight back if they hurt us. . . they know Obama can't fight and won't fight.  He is one of them, not us.

Pray for our troops and the Americans that are in the Middle East now.  Be it for our government in an Embassy or private business Obama has put the bulls eye on them and shown he will do nothing for them.  He has put us all at risk. . . . remember in November because he has just set up the next 9/11.  It is not an if, but a when.

9/11

I am not to involved in today for all the ceremony. . . . What it means to me is all about coworkers.
I worked with two brothers, one was on flight 11
Today is about a lost coworker, brother, husband and father of two. . . . Gone now 11 years
May God watch over the victims whatever name you call him by.

Democratic Convention

Gotta love the Dem Convention. . . so far they have had to backtrack on their platform. .  now they will mention God and we will back Israel. 

Folks keep in mind they are not putting this stuff back in because they want to or will do it.  They put it back because they want to keep power.  The whole point of taking it out was to see if we would let them get away with it.

And to top it off they want to put the Assault Weapons ban back in place – you know the ban that was not really on assault weapons, but did ban the most popular rifles in the country and standard capacity magazines?  And did nothing to prevent crime or make any difference in any of the data tracked for crime?

The more I see of the Democrats the more I understand that the root of the party is so far gone it is not recoverable.  They are anti-American and proud of it.  They must not be allowed to win this year.  They must be stopped or our country will be unrecognizable. 

4 more years of Obama and they will succeed in making us a third world country-complete with them as the dictator. . . 

NY Shootings not possible

They say 5 people were shot in front of the Empire State building. . .. Not possible.  Guns are all but outlawed in NYC so how can folks have them and shoot people?

Same goes for Chicago where 13 folks got shot in 30 minutes. . .

These are all gun free zones so how are they getting shot????

Could it be gun control does not work????

Batman Shooting in the news

Now that the news and talking heads are on the case as you can expect the facts have gone out the window.

Already there is calls for gun control and I listened to one say we should ban standard capacity magazines because of this shooting - News flash - the "assault rifle" (it's not an assault rifle) had those mags and it jammed. . . so that was not how he got the high body count.

My bet is most got hit with the shotgun.  A 12 ga with the right shot is in will hit more than one person and he can spray it around as he shoots. . .

And lets not forget that he had months to plan this and get around the law.  And would have gotten around them as the real experts agree.  Gun control is and should be a dead issue.  It is not effective and does nothing to make us safer - just the opposite it encourages nuts like this since they know there will be no resistance to the attack.

Folks, don't let them lead us off the path.  We need to forget the tool and the quick fix (more laws) - they don't matter and don't work.

We need to know how this guy thinks, what was he thinking, why did he do this and how did he avoid anyone learning about his plans for the months he was working on this. . ..

And to anyone that wants to blame the gun I ask this simple question - Would you rather he used the bombs he obviously knew how to make?  Would it be better if he blew up the people or used Molotov Cocktails anyone can make to burn them all to death?  Probably would have got him a higher body count . . . is that what you want?

Gun control and Bloomeburg and Batman shooting

Here we go. . . . Bloomeburg is showing he is a fool again and calling for gun control like it would have done a damned thing.

Look you idiot he had a bullet proof vest/ body armor, helmet, tear gas and gas mask. .  .his apartment has been rigged with booby traps.  Do you really think the tool is the issue here?  You think he would not have used pipe bombs or Molotov cocktails instead?

Active shooter in a gun free zone full of victims is the issue here.  You made them helpless with your gun control that the criminal does not care about. . .

The problem is the shooter, not the gun.  Easy answers won't fix this. .  ..

Deal with it

Batman Shooting

Folks I am really getting sick of watching the news dance in the blood of these poor folks.  I am sorry there was a shooting, and I grave for the families, they are in my prayers but really now can we have a reality check?

This guy put a lot of thought and prep into this. . . .no one noticed?  And the news folks are taking about Columbine. . . Like it has any connection other than being in the same state.  I am sure the calls for gun control will be quick to follow as if that would have stopped this.

Folks stop focusing on the tool.  We need to know why he did this and how he kept it secret. 

The gun is not the issue.  He had tear gas, gas mask and bullet proof vest. . .  I am told the theater was a gun free zone, so it's illegal to have a gun in the theater. . . Ya, that worked about as well as the other gun free zones we have. . He was going to do this no matter what.  Would you be happier if he used a pipe bomb or Molotov cocktail?  Killing is illegal and he had no problems planning that - you think he would have cared if his weapon of choice was illegal too?

As for the gun free zones, when will we grow up and admit that a gun free zone has never saved a life, and if anything puts us all in danger since these nuts know that if they attack there no one has the tools to stop them.  Reality time - a gun free zone does nothing but insure the attacker gets free time to shoot until the cops can get there. . .  .nothing more.

I pray for the victims and their families. . . And I pray that we will not let the anti rights crowd use this to distract us from the real issue of what was wrong with this nut that caused him to do this.  The tool used is irrelevant.

Gunny 101

Spent about an hour or so in one of them EVIL GUN SHOPS over the weekend.  I was in there to look at a couple of .22s that I wanted so I could get more trigger time with less cost. . .  and being that I am in MA when you tell me you have a pre-AWB Ruger 10/22 available with scope, folding stock and flash suppresser I am all over it. . .

Anyway while I was in there it hit me.  These gunny folks are still some of the friendliest I have ever met.  The shop was packed, folks calmly waited in line, no problems, comments or other issues.  Folks actually said excuse me when walking in front of you to get to the other part of the store and move out of the way if they notice you were trying to see something in the display case. . . .Once you got up front the staff was great to work with and quick to help with suggestions (I was also looking for a pistol in .22).  They did not have the used .22 Smith I was looking at but asked what I was looking for and my goals for it.  After a bit of a talk he took out a new Ruger SR22 and let me give it a good look over.  Nice gun, small, same sights as my full size M&P 9mm which is my carry gun. . . fit my needs and looked like it would be great for my wife to shoot to.  Win win!

While looking at the various guns I got talking with the customer next to me who was looking at an AR-15 platform.  We traded some range stories, Taking our kids to the range stories. . . I gave him my $.02 on the AR I have and we got along well. . . I had never met the guy before.

After jumping through all the Fed and State hoops I got my guns, a used 10/22 and a new Ruger SR22.  Range reports for both to be posted later (once I get to the range).

I have said it before as have many others – gun folks are good folks.  If you ever read a piece in the paper and they bad mouth the gunnies they met I can bet you they either 1- made up the story, or 2- brought an attitude with them.  Sure there are always a few bad apples out there, but I have yet to run into any real issues with any of the gunnies I have met, even in the few gun stores with a rep for attitude I have been in. . .

Be it at the gun store, a blogger shoot or just talking with folks that find out you are a gunny too I continue to find them to be great folks.  Usual with a good sense of humor, a few stories to swap, and more than willing to share advice, talk about guns they have, or let you put a few round down range to try out one of their guns you may be looking at.  I know I am a better person for the gunnies I have met and call friend.
