Thank you to all those that have served – Happy Veterans Day. If it were not for the brave who have protected this country we would not have the freedoms we so often take for granted. Thank you!

I know everyone’s tired of hearing about the election but it is very relevant and will be for some time.

Now we have people in the streets protesting – and even getting violent – due to the results of the election. These are the very same people who have been calling Trump a racist and that he would bring about violence, hate, and division. Um….yeah….right. As it goes with Liberals the hypocrisy runs deep. All over social media people are calling for Trump to be killed and numerous celebrities are promoting violence.

The above video represents the mindset of a certain segment of the Liberal populace.

Folks – this is just the start.

I heard reports from within the firearm community that AR’s will drop to prices NEVER seen before around February. Manufactures and gun shops had stocked up expecting Hillary to be elected and a run on guns and ammo shortly after.

Hey – I hope everyone has a great weekend. Be safe!

    Hope you’re right about the drop in AR prices. I might be able to convince the wife to let me pick up another one or two and/or some .22LR versions for training and plinking.

    Off Topic but hilarious post from one of the news sites concerning Oregon’s ballot measure to secede from the US:

    “Only HALF of Oregon can secede. The US owns 53% of the land in Oregon.

    … [snipped to get to the good stuff]

    Let’s see, you have 2 air force bases, 1 army base and 1 coast guard base which will all be leaving if you secede leaving you vulnerable to invasion by some other country…like the US. Maybe, we’ll take you and give you to Idaho. They could use a beach.

    Better rethink it.”

    HAHAHA

    If we’d have known all it took for the West Coast to secede was electing Trump, we’d have put him in the White House 30 years ago!!

      Unfortunately, none of the West Coast will secede. Any natural disaster will have to be funded from their own budgets. California is supposedly broke. I can see it now. California, Oregon and Washington having to fund reconstruction after a major quake. They declare it a disaster area. Now the fun begins. No FEMA, no Red Cross, and no federal tax dollars spent to help them recover. Oh well. Tough. Maybe the bozos calling for secession will hurry up and go to Canada or where ever they want to go. I’m tired of listening to all the “fruits and nuts” from Hollywood especially.

        I laughed at the line “…no FEMA funds…”

        Since that new west coast country would be owned by the bankers, they could print all the fiat currency they want.

        Problem solved, same as it is now…

    Still perilous times in the USA. Guess until there is a conflict to settle it, it won’t end.
    Revival and Spiritual Renewal would be better (2 Chronicles 7:14) but while nothing is impossible with God – it’s the hearts of men that’s the problem! Happy Veterans Day to all. – Keep Looking UP

    Yesterday a DNC staffer angrily confronted Donna Brazile over her failures and that his life expectancy had been cut by 40 years because of climate change… He’s 20 so he believes that the world will be uninhabitable in 20 years because of global warming. An example of how brainwashed these people are. All these protesters suffer the same. For over a year they have been told that Trump is a monster. Hopefully over time reality will take hold….

    I think the biggest problem people are having with Trump is that he isn’t a lifelong politician skilled in talking out both sides of his mouth. He has an opinion, so he expresses it. We all say and do things at times that we wouldn’t have if we’d known the cameras were rolling and that someone was going to psychoanalyze our mood at the moment and use that against our whole being. Electing him was a step in the right direction. The younger generation is so used to everything being handed to them on a silver platter that it’s beyond their comprehension that the “gimmes” are going to be the downfall of our country.

    Single Mom hit the nail on the head. This generation of “Everyone gets a Trophy” doesn’t know how to deal with loss. The DNC and main stream media are not helping either with their promotion of social division and violence. The actions in the video are not a protest. This is criminal behavior, it’s a hate crime. I doubt it will be treated as such. We are in for a rough time.

    I guess I’m a sicko. I have been enjoying watching all this gnashing of teeth and liberal heads exploding. It’s very entertaining for me to watch all these liberal babies melting down. This country needs an enema and it looks like the hose just got shoved in!

    Totally random info… Most people are familiar with the fact that God has a preference for the number 7 (and 12). Donald trump was born June 14, 1946. As a result, he will be 70 years, 7 months, and 7 days old when he takes office.

    The morning after the election, some of the media commentators seemed to understand that not only was a huge part of the population not happy with business as usual in Washington, but had sent the media the same message…..one sided reporting was NOT acceptable either. Yet nothing seems to have been adjusted from what i see……it almost seems the broadcasting of the violence and demonstrations is an invitation to the liberal mobs to continue and more to join in.( Though, there have been a few commentators brave enough to go on record saying these demonstrators are throwing tantrums and having a “modern form of the vapours” that shows no self control…. wonder if it was partly due to the riotous celebration they had planned being called off and they had to”celebrate”and act out one way or another…….) There are probably MANY facets of anger/disappointment leading to the violence displayed so recklessly and without consequence. Today we celebrate Veteran’s day and the people willing to sacrifice all for the freedom we enjoy. The protesters seem to have no understanding of the fact that this includes allowing others the right to disagree. They would have been condemning our disappointment had the election gone as THEY expected. I CAN’T say with certainty there would have been no protests or demonstrations, orderly or not. As i see their lack of coping with this unexpected loss turn ugly in many cases, it is becoming clear the weekend and it’s free time will bring more. Thinking of the possibility of a REAL crisis in the lives of those demonstrators who don’t blink at crossing “lines” provided by RULE OF LAW, i am realizing the lawlessness they could/would resort to if life did not provide them with the normal provisions, let alone conveniences. Everyone stay out of their way this weekend….keep safe…..

    Rourke-I am not tired of hearing about this election at all- its cause for celebration !!!
    Thank you to my husband and all the vets out there for keeping us safe and free!!
    This younger generation has been brainwashed by the left-radical professors and “community organizers” .They dont know what real stress is. How dare they cause
    destruction and damage by violence to others and to others property.They have a right to voice their opinion thanks to the freedom of America-but they do not have a right to commit crimes and need to be punished for this.Since we now know that
    the majority of Americans wanted Trump in and change now we need to push forward
    to reclaim our values and “Make America great again” Greater than its ever been.
