  FAKEbook is biased, big time This is a pretty damned good illustration of how biased left media really is.  What in hell could a sane person find offensive about this image?  What in hell is offensive about the script?  I damned sure do trust Kyle Rittenhouse more than Alex Baldwin, in any situation, armed or otherwise. This is ridiculous.  If you haven't lately, take a look at MeWe dot Com.  I have been there for 3 years, and have had nothing but good experiences there.  No jail, no petty liberal crime analists. (<<Sp.?  YES, as is). It was alleged that a crime had been committed.  A trial was held and a jury of his peers determined the defendant to be innocent of all charges.  That is as "American Justice" as it gets?  And the Anti American, Anti-Constitution, Left wing of this country are upset about it, with the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES saying that he wasn't satisfied with the verdict.  The President of this Nation disagrees with our jury system, onl

TRAIN, TRAIN, AND THEN TRAIN SOME MORE Some days are better than others.  Yesterday was one of those better days.  30 rounds inside a 3 1 /2 inch circle from 75 yards is acceptable.  If I didn't have the ability to shoot, from home, nearly every day, I couldn't produce results like this.  And, as can be seen by the target shot the next day, (bottom image), I was a bit looser as I shot an exercise of going from right handed shooting to left handed shooting, between shots.  These are the target I use, and are about the same size as a skull,  which shows that most of these would be "Kill Shots". I'll take it, proudly. In my shooting exercises, I use different tactics, different stances, and different positions.  In some exercises, I use this old stump as a crouch position, and fire from there, usually alternating with a standing shot, through the exercise.  Just seeking the most real training that I can use.

  What is Faith? Faith, to this paratrooper, is stepping out a door, 1,250 feet above ground, and believing that the Rigger that packed your chute, did it just right. Faith to this Infantryman, is believing that your fire team, your squad, your platoon would take the fight to the enemy right beside you. Faith to this HUEY Crew Chief, is believing that your maintenance of the aircraft will let it bring you back to base after the mission. Faith is where you find it, and once you truly know the "feel" of Faith, you will never doubt it again. Joining the Army and  becoming an Infantry Paratrooper, (And later becoming a "Crew Chief"), was the single biggest thing that shaped me for the rest of my life.  Airborne School, and all that it opened up to me, let me truly know "The Feel of Faith".

  I know good people     I know good People. The wife of this Lt/COL, (LTC), says: "Today was a BIG Day! One that was 29 years in the making… from long training days (weeks), multiple deployments in 4 wars, 350+ jumps out of airplanes, lots of schools… He has worked his butt off to get to this point and I couldn’t be more proud of what he has accomplished! From PVT to LTC is huge and you deserve to be celebrated today! 🎊 I’ve seen your dedication and passion for what you do. I see the men and women you have influenced and inspire. I’ve seen the advise and mentorship of your previous leadership play a huge role in the leader you’ve become. And again I couldn’t be more proud of you!" I met LTC Marsh when he was a Captain, assigned to the US Army Ranger School, Camp Rudder Florida, and renewed our friendship when he returned as a Major.  He is an impressive Leader, a great image of what an Army Ranger really is. I do know good people, and he is "of the best"

Gun control is being able to hit the target I love to shoot.   That shooting reinforces my personal feeling of being able to protect myself, (something that is NOT the mission of Law Enforcement OR Government), and give me great satisfaction when I see that I am doing well on the range. Some days I can do very well, and on others I do less well.  I found that yesterday, my aim wasn't quite as refined as usual, (both while shooting, and while driving nails with my hammer), making me realize that perhaps I needed to just settle down and take it slower.    Today, I did very well, shooting a much tighter, more disciplined routine, creating a very close shot group.   Having a home range allows me to engage in leisure activity that is both affordable and rewarding.  If I were to lose the rights affirmed in the  2nd Amendment, I would feel that life was meaningless. I do my best to stay informed on things such as "Constitutional Affirmation of GOD given rights", and stay as act
