Well, my efforts to unplug from politics for a couple weeks failed miserably. The situation in Charlottesville and pathetic responses to Trump’s comments regarding it are driving me crazy:

“We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides.”

“Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including KKK, Neo-Nazis, White Supremacists, and other hate groups are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans. Those who spread violence in the name of bigotry strike at the very core of America.”

Somehow the MSM, Liberals, and RINO’s are finding that Trump failed to appropriately respond and place blame in the events in Charlottesville.

Unbelievable.

Picked up this Ganzo G-736 Axis Lock folder from GearBest.com. It is really nice. While Ganzo may not be a well-known name in America it is gaining in popularity for a very good reason – quality at a lower cost.

Iran threatening to go back to its nuclear weapons program. Wonderful.

    I don’t ever think you can truly, “unplug” so to speak. I do think you can in passing, make one’s self not dive deep or starting researching the issue. You have to kind of, for better lack of words, use the AL-ANON saying. Let go, and Let God.

    Take a deep breath, tell yourself your going to let the Trump administration handle things, whether things go good or bad, because the media is always attacking him/us, and say some prayers. I find I can make it about 3 days to a week before having to really read something. Especially, since the mainstream media is Constantly pitching a fit like a 2 year child about everything. Or, crying wolf constantly.

    In fact prepping, is the one thing other than my family that gives me that break to enjoy life. :o)

    Kids are back in school. Wow, what a whirlwind summer. I swear this has been the busiest summer we’ve ever had. Speaking of which. Prepping topic? What to do if the grid goes down, EMP attack, etc, while your kids are in school. How are you going to get to them and once you do and even really more serious, how are you going to get them out of a locked down school?

    My best defense when the MSM comes on is hit the MUTE/power button. They will never change because they are plugged into the propaganda machine. I had hoped they would come around but I don’t think it will ever happen. The MSM is a big part of the problem and helps fuel this hatred!! So sad…

      Absolutely!! I was in the chair at the dentist yesterday at 0800. The Today program was on the screen in the room as they were prepping me for a filling. I asked them to please turn it to something more palatable. It was bad enough having to have a filling, I sure didn’t need the back drop of those clowns talking about nothing. The dentist agreed. MSM makes me sick. I turn the channel immediately.
