The disassociation of Neely from his mental illness, actions, and the situation of his own creation, along with the association of Garcia with “White Supremacy,” along with the ownership of the language in use by nearly everyone that has anything to say on the subject, has again bogged down any thoughtful discourse in a Left/Right argument that is not just outmoded – but harmful and willfully misleading.

The 2nd Amendment, Mental Illness, Woke Culture, and Mass Shootings.
Can we stop pretending that this is a crisis of an inanimate object? Mass murder will happen regardless of mode – and many nations with some of the highest murder rates have the most restrictive gun laws on the planet. Mode is not the issue, even in mass murders - see also the Waukesha SUV Christmas parade attack, Yunnan province knife attack, and hundreds of others. We have a mental health crisis – and mass shootings are just one symptom.

We are something that those who haven’t been can never be. We have something that you can’t buy. We are the .45% of modern society that knows what war really means.
To support Ukraine or not – a year into the war.
Ukraine deserves support, and I hope they win. But it is incumbent upon Europe to do the heavy lifting, and it is incumbent upon the US to get our own house in order. Until then, material from existing stocks should be the order of the day.
Wearing Your Resume
I felt my soul come back into my body at that moment. Slab didn't come at me in a rage. He didn't make assumptions. He didn't pre-judge the situation. I have seen all of that happen before. I have been on the receiving end of ungodly rage from Senior Non-Coms - and knew I had not done anything wrong. This was different. It told me a lot more about who Slab is as a man, and I liked what I learned.

On this day – 1775
It is interesting how the times have changed, and the actors have different accents, but the motivations stay the same. Of course, if one rails against the tyranny that threatens to suppress a God-given right, protected as sacrosanct in the founding document of our republic today, one is labeled an extremist, or worse. However, is … Continue reading On this day – 1775
California – A Case Study in Failure
Why are these so-called Liberals, who pander to the perpetually offended, and act in ways that would make Il Duce and Goebbels proud, all while telling us how the very Capitalism that made them rich is horrible, and we should all live under the protective thumb of a never-been-tried-before “Democratic Socialist” utopia, suddenly packing up and moving to classically liberal states that have lower taxes, more freedom, and *gasp* support he 2nd Amendment?

The hypocrisy of Marxists and their supporters in the media knows no bounds.On the 6th of January this year, people stormed the US Capitol building, whilst Congress was in joint session, with the idea to protest the certification of the 2020 Presidential election. In some cases, the protestors broke in by smashing doors and windows, … Continue reading InSuRrEcTiOn!
Living in Nazi America
The United States is a true dichotomy. It is an oppressive fascist country, where a majority of patriarchal, racist, sexist, homophobic, white males voted for a Nazi, who hates gays, and people of color, yet people are literally dying in attempts to get into this terrible place illegally. Interestingly, there is no actual proof of … Continue reading Living in Nazi America
