Ahh, but can you get ordnance? There’s the challenge…

Well, I can through @rascal_crone but yeah, that is the challenge for mere mortals…

Potato guns never go out of style. Or out of ammo.

I’m partial to my auto-firing rubber band gun myself, but that’s just because I love the “thrummming” sound it makes on full auto…

I’m sure they said this kind of thing at Malheur. Then everybody started sending them dildos, the situation became more ridiculous than anything, and eventually the whole crew trooped on home sheepishly except for LaVoy Finicum, who thought he’d be a tough guy and died face down in the snow. These people survive encounters with law enforcement because the authorities have decided it’s more convenient to let them live. If they force the authorities to revise that view it won’t be pretty. But it will be quick.

No, I never saw this, unfortunately. I mentioned to someone else the other day that just having a warbird go by overhead is impressive, because they’re so much more powerful than ordinary aircraft of comparable size. I can only imagine what it’s like to be in combat and having all that energy and lethality happening around you. I’ve read in Vietnam the grunts called the AC-130 “Spooky.” It has a Gatling gun similar to the A-10 but two sizes of artillery as well, including the 105, which makes it the most powerful artillery platform in the air. The B-52, well obviously. I used to work in the Dover, Delaware area and you often saw C-5s in the air. Those things are ridiculous, so big that if you equate them with civilian jetliners you perceive them as not moving in the sky, because they’re that much farther away. It’s a weird optical illusion.

Thank you. 
Oh. It’s For Q Day.
Don’t forget to greet the local Qultists with a hearty “For Q!”
my initial response was thinking they were seeking body armor - which was already in evidence.
An armed personnel carrier, without a full-sized, operational cannon, just ain’t going to cut it…
Is a way to get people into a situation they can’t get out of.

A.C. Thompson, the ProPublica reporter (frequent PBS Frontline producer) who broke the story of Bush and Cheney’s “extraordinary rendition” torture scheme has a new documentary. In it, he connects the dots between Charlottesville, the insurrection, and extremist events in between, in the new PBS Frontline Insurrection. An eye-opener. It can be found here:
