Had a pretty good weekend. Started writing an American Reformation scenario post to publish today and it got out of hand. What started as a short “what if” has turned into a “chapter”. Hope to finish it soon.

Just read an article discussing movements within multiple states to succeed from the Union. These states include California, Texas, Oklahoma, Maine, Utah, West Virginia, and New York’s Long Island. All for various reasons and with different levels of popularity there is an upward trend of interest.

I wish South Carolina would get added to the list.

When it comes to smartphones I am an Android guy. I picked up the new Samsung Galaxy S8 plus and so far love it. The NSA says I come in loud and clear.

From the “This is Complete Insanity” Files: A Middle School boy was suspended for 10 days for “liking” a picture of a gun on Instagram. Seriously. Not kidding. After meeting with the parents – and getting some negative publicity – the school canceled the suspension. Unbelievable.

Went to start testing the Freedom Ordnance FX9 I recently received from ClassicFirearms.com and found the range was taken by a local shooting club. I went down and watched and was impressed to find a man competing who had no arms! He shot with his feet. Much respect!!!

shooting, competition, no arms, feet, shooting with feet,

There are many reasons why so many love their Kindle and Amazon Fire tablets. One huge advantage is you could literally go years without every buying a book to read as there are tons of free eBooks available. Don’t have a Kindle or Fire? No problem. There are apps that can be installed on most any cell phone or computer for free. No excuses!

Today’s Freebies

     

“Almost” Free Survival & Preparedness Ebooks

     
 

NOTE: If you see a free preparedness eBook that you’re interested in get it now. Prices change often and there is no way to tell how long the book will remain free. Before purchasing a free Kindle book on Amazon make certain the book is still free by making sure the price is $0.00. If it lists a price or says “read for free” or has a price for prime members the book is not free anymore.

    Galaxy S8?Awesome Rourke. I barely,..and I mean I’m barley hanging on. I want to get the S8 so bad, but now the rumor mills confirmed the Note 8 will be released this fall. Even though the Note 8 will be almost completely similar to the S8. I really enjoyed and used the Stylus pen a lot. There are a few other geeky upgrades that us geeks will enjoy like the 6GB RAM on the Note 8. Otherwise…just another clear device for the NSA. “Hoping” when it hits the fan I can turn off all GPS and network connectivity so I can keep using it. Airplane mode? Meh.

    I remember how close Texas came to having the vote for secession put on the ballot. I would’ve voted yes.

    I noticed on more of the “normal” websites the comments under antifa idiot videos. The comments are now becoming more vocal about a possible civil war. Likewise…almost all the comments say what we’ve said here. It might happen, people are not worried, if it happens Patriots will die, and likewise…it will be the end of the liberals.

    The majority of France voted that socialist centrist pig Macron as president. Every single comment under the reporting sites say close to the same thing. You made your bed, now die in it. Which is exactly what will happen. This time the USA does NOT need to bail them out. Let the radical Muslims thin them out.

      Thanks Capt. I loved my Note 4 and still have it. Was going to wait for the new Note but just couldn’t do it.

    My grandfather was a retired Chief Petty Officer out of the Navy. He joined as a “cabin boy” when he was 11. He lied about his age and told them he was 12. He would spin the dirt off of his grave if he were to witness / hear what is happening in this country today. It was out of respect for him and his memory that I joined the Navy in ’66 and volunteered for duty with the Seabees in Vietnam.

    Very disappointed in France, but not surprised. France, like Greece and a few others, are based on the socialistic myth. Greece has already collapsed. France will also. They instituted a massive tax on the wealthy….75% on all income over 1 million euros. It resulted in a number of the wealthy leaving the country. Not to worry, they knew better than coming to the US.

    Couple the social agenda in France with their massive influx of Muslim immigrants, the country is on a sharp slide to the bottom.
