I wonder

We all know that Obama, Lynch and Clinton pulled James Comey into a room and put the screws to him, in order to ensure that he understand that Hillary Clinton would not be persecuted for her multiple felonies that she committed.  We don't know how he was threatened, but only an idiot would think that he wasn't given a talking to like some mob flunkie that the boss needed to "chat" with.

So he goes out, and for all intents and purposes flushes the FBI's reputation and integrity down the shitter, so that Hillary can keep campaigning.

I wonder if this re-opening of the case is James Comey's revenge?  I wonder if Comey saw his chance to hit back, and took it?

Boston Butt in the smoker

Five and a half pounds.  It's been sitting in there, bathing in smoke from cherry wood since 1100 this morning.

Finished casing and packaging the bratwurst.  Eighteen pounds, or thereabouts.  It's grilling season again!

Tomorrow after church - more bottling and brewing.  The cider we bottled and primed last weekend is ready to drink right now, and the Mrs. loves it.  It's more of an Irish cider than an English cider; somewhat sweet (but not sugary sweet) and full mouthfeel.  She's in love.  I might just get a little extra "thanks" tonight!  Depends on how much she drinks....

Always double-check

So, I went to go get some ammo.  Among the boxes I purchased was a box of .38 Spc for the Mrs.

Or so I thought.  Because when I got it home, I found out it was a box of 38 SUPER, not 38 SPECIAL.

Anyone in the Richmond area, or close to it, shoot 38 Special?

I'm dying laughing here, boss!

It's NSFW.  It's not safe for polite company.  It's not safe around women, children, and people who heave never been in the military.

And I'm just about crying from laughing so hard, and my wife can only shake her head...

Well, yes!

If the Media investigated Hillary like they did Nixon, we wouldn't need WikiLeaks.

It has now been more than four decades since the Washington Post and New York Times led the charge to bring down Richard Nixon and his administration’s massive web of corruption and political subterfuge schemes. They did so by aggressively and tirelessly seeking out the truth, and reporting back to the American people clearly and comprehensively. 

Today, both publications have become willing accomplices in suppressing the same type of information they worked so tenaciously to expose all those years ago. By openly and unapologetically acting as institutional surrogates for the Clinton campaign, these same institutions, and nearly every other mainstream media outlet in America, have gone hands-off in exposing what may very well turn out to be the most explosive and damaging corruption scandal in American politics since “Tricky Dick” was reelected back in ’72. 

Not by coincidence, Julian Assange and WikiLeaks have stepped in to fill the void. And boy, are the “truth seekers” mad about that!

If you create a vacuum, something will come to fill the void.  Since the media in this country is now nothing more than the propaganda wing of the Democrat Party, other parties have come forward to fill the vacuum left by the media abandoning all principles and integrity.  Don't be shocked if they're a bit less than savory.  They're doing the job the media refuses to do.

That said, a paradox exists that cannot be ignored. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and the mainstream media are all telling us that Putin and Assange are the bad guys. Bad guys they might be, but in effect they are providing information to the American people that Clinton and Obama do not want them to have, because if the American people have this information, they would not approve of what Clinton and President Obama have done. 

Color me reactionary, but I don’t think Putin and Assange are the folks we should be most concerned about right now. They are only influencing the election based upon larger disclosure of the facts. Clinton, Obama, and the media are influencing the election based on attempts to suppress and distort the facts.

I'll take the lesser of two evils right now, and that's WikiLeaks.  As Clinton and Obama have proven over and over and over,. they are domestic enemies to the US Constitution, and they are a greater evil than WikiLeaks could ever possibly be.

The Political Left are thugs, plain and simple

From the start of Marxism to now, the Left is thuggery, over and over and over.

Yes, the man running a direct confrontation street thug operation on behalf of the Democratic Party had direct, personal and apparently unrestricted access to the highest levels of the Democratic Party which right now are the highest levels of the U.S. government.

We cannot let them win.  Because if they do, this will be our political future from now until I die, which will probably be on a pile of brass behind a wall of American Brownshirt corpses.

Huh. Random "youths" go on a rampage

Anyone want to peruse this and tell me the color of their skin?

A slew of vicious, “flash mob”-style attacks at Temple University left at least six students beaten and bloodied over the weekend, along with a cop and a police horse. 

More than 150 teens, spread out in groups of 20 or 30, descended upon the campus at around 8:30 p.m. on Friday — wreaking havoc for nearly two hours before eventually dispersing, according to NBC 10.

If these kids had been white, or Oriental, I'm pretty sure we would have read about it.

The horde seemed to be targeting people at random during the attacks — pummeling them, destroying their personal items and even robbing them in some instances. 

In one incident, a female student named Christina Laulette was beaten to a bloody pulp and hospitalized after a group of youths ganged up on her and two others.

Beaten to a bloody pulp.  And young Miss Laulette's father lets the cat out of the bag:

“Her and her 2 male friends where badly beaten by a group of 30-40 black teenagers on their way home from the Temple football game,” her father, Joe Lauletta, recalled in a Facebook post on Saturday night.

It's hard for me, when I work with people from all over this country, to shift into a "me-vs-them" mindset just based on skin color.  But do you EVER see mobs of white kids issuing beat downs?  Do you see Korean kids running down Wilshire Boulevard playing the Knock-Out Game?  Do we have gangs of Scandinavian kids running wild through Minneapolis-St. Paul?

No.  We don't.  What do we see?  Black mobs attacking people at random.  Mexican thugs assaulting people at Trump rallies in California.  Every liberal "favored" group, destroying the civilization that other people have built.  And quite frankly I'm getting tired of it.

I love my black co-workers, and I'd defend them to the death.  But I wouldn't go into their neighborhood, and for good reasons.  Hell, even some of them don't go back to the neighborhoods they grew up in!  I worked with a guy who had to deal with "He ain't a real niggah!" every time he went home!

A country cannot live like this.  You cannot have one group of people consistently committing violence against another group, while simultaneously calling the group being attacked "racist" and telling them that they have "privilege".

Yes, the system is rigged

Kurt Schlichter lays it out, and does it well.  He also points out that when the game is rigged, we have no obligation to honor the system that's rigged against us.

The system is manifestly rigged – even Heap Big Chief Warren used to say so until a memo informed her that this meme is now inconvenient – so spare me your sanctimonious crap about our sacred system. Our loyalty is properly only to the Constitution, not a perversion of it. Just because you hold office under Article I, II, or III doesn’t mean we still owe you respect or deference when you treat your obligations to the People like a teenage Thai boy at one of Raymond Burr’s Halloween parties. 

We owe the system nothing. Nada. Zip. Instead, the system owes usfairness and honesty, and without them it has no right to our default acceptance of its results. That acceptance must be earned. This means that the system must aggressively police its own integrity, and this year it has utterly failed to do so.

And that's about the most succinct assessment I've heard in a while.  How many times have I pointed out that the law is the replacement for violence, and if the law no longer functions, or if the law itself is used against the law-abiding, we have the right to return to the violence we gave up?

I only give up my right of retribution if the law appropriately punishes the criminals.  This is no longer the case, as proven by the fact that Hillary Clinton would be in jail if it weren't for her political connections.

Is this dangerous talk? Hell yes – but the danger doesn’t come from us pointing out the corruption. The danger is the corruption. I walked through wrecked villages in the aftermath of a civil war, so I sure as hell don’t need your lessons about what lies at the bottom of the slippery slope your ruling class is tobogganing down. I know – and as my new book predicts, it’s really bad. But the solution isn’t to try to shut us up when we dare point out the truth – nor will it work. As the hep kids say, we are now hella woke. The solution is to demand the system do its damn job and root out corruption and earn back the default acceptance we would love nothing more than to be able to offer again, confident that the system is unrigged. Too bad if our refusal to simply acquiesce to your scam is inconvenient.

The establishment wants to rule us.  The Democrat voters want to be ruled.  We conservatives refuse to be ruled.  And we have most the guns.

It is to laugh

So a gay man writes a tongue-in-cheek note to his local paper about women wearing yoga pants, and the usual suspects are up in arms, and...  Just....  wow....

“Women are fed up with the notion that we have to dress for people’s visual pleasure,” said Jamie Burke, parade organizer.

Ladies and gentlemen, that statement there shows a such a complete lack of any sense of the obvious that I really don't know which of my meters just blew up.  Irony?  Bullshit?  Who knows?

Just in case you don't quite get it:

Yoga pants on a woman outside of a yoga studio are ENTIRELY for a man's visual pleasure.

"But Dave, they're so comfortable!"  Yep, uh-huh, sure they are.  They also happen to show off a woman's ass and legs to such an extent that I can normally tell of a woman is waxed bare, has a landing strip or sports a natural bush.  I see a woman wearing yoga pants, all I have to do is imagine them in skin tone and I know exactly what they look like naked.  Skin-tight spandex and lycra have their place.  That place is in a gym.  If I step out of my house wearing a pair of shorts that are tight enough to tell if I'm circumcised or not, and strolled down Main Street with my johnson displayed in it's full fabric-covered glory for anyone to see, I would be called a pervert, a sex deviant, what have you.  But I would be doing it for the express purpose of showing off my wedding tackle, and everybody would know it.  There wouldn't be any stupid SJW statements being made, or coy statements about how it "wasn't for people's visual pleasure".  Hell, other people might not enjoy it, but the intent of wearing such clothing when you wear it outside of a gym is showing off your body.  Much like a push-up bra, or Daisy Duke shorts, or skin-tight shirts, the whole object of that clothing is to have people LOOK AT YOUR BODY.

So for a woman to walk around in yoga pants and squeal "it's not for people's visual pleasure!" means at least one, and possibly two things:  That person is a flat-out liar, and there's a possibility that you're just not their intended audience.

In any case, let's just call it what it is, and avoid the fake, sanctimonious blather that dribbles from these SJW's lips like vomit from a baby that's just been burped.  It's a cry for attention.  It's someone saying "LOOK AT MY BODY!"  And it's entirely for the visual pleasure of SOMEBODY.

Europe is finished.

You can now simply call it "Europistan" and be done with it.

An Iraqi refugee who raped a 10-year-old boy at a swimming pool has had his conviction overturned because a court didn't prove he realised the boy was saying no. 

The rapist, identified as Amir A, 20, violently sexually assaulted the boy in the changing room of Theresienbad pool in Austria claiming it was a 'sexual emergency' because he had not had sex for four months.  

But an appeal court in the country accepted the defence lawyer's claim that the lower court had not done enough to prove he knew the schoolboy was saying no and overturned the conviction.

You want some stomach churning news that will make you want to drop a bomb on where ever this court sits?

The higher court said it should have been ascertained whether or not the victim agreed to the sexual act or whether Amir A had acted against the will of the boy.  

"acted against the will of the boy".  So apparently, in Germany ten year old boys have buttsex all the time!  So much so that a court of law couldn't tell if the sex acts that left a TEN YEAR OLD BOY HOSPITALIZED AND SUFFERING FROM PTSD was "consensual" or not.

This is the sort of thing that SHOULD get that court and all the people responsible for this travesty drug out of their homes and hung from lamp posts, right along with the rapist.

Europe is done.  Germany is done.  They've given themselves cultural AIDS.  They've injected Ebola into their civilization, and they're proud of it.  They've become so open-minded that their brains have fallen out of their heads and rolled away.

Tell me, dear readers, just what would you be doing if that ten year old boy was your son?
