When the world comes to you

Israel is in the process of turning Iran into an ashtray, like Jimmy Carter, may he burn forever in hell, should have in 1979.

Unfortunately for Israel, they have to do it with conventional weapons.

The normal blood vultures are out in force, screaming about Israel is killing babies.

Unfortunately for us, this raises the possibility that Iran will activate terrorist cells in the United States (and other countries) to attempt to harm us. Keep your head on a swivel.

Here, in my sleepy little rural town, the mostly peaceful protesters are planning to riotprotest this morning and afternoon. I’m hoping they stay on the peaceful side of things.

We are not in the town center, but we are on one of the main roads leaving downtown. Yes, we call the two traffic lights, “downtown”. The rifles will be loaded and ready. The LBV will be out and ready.

Just because you live in a small town that is patriotic doesn’t mean that you won’t see protests. At issue is the high probability of outside agitators being bussed in.

Keep your head on a swivel.

If your particular state requires a permission slip to exercise your rights, attempt to get one. And make a decision, which is worse, to be carried by six or judged by twelve.

Final note. Before you put that firearm on your hip, decide if you are willing to take a life. If you are willing, in what circumstances? I re-evaluated my principals after I watched the George Floyd video. My initial response, when watching the video, was “I’m glad I wasn’t there, I don’t know if I would have killed the cop or not.” Today I know that the cop was in the right.

    Good advice! If you need to be out & about, exercise good situational awareness to avoid getting caught up in the festivities.

    “My initial response, when watching the video, was “I’m glad I wasn’t there, I don’t know if I would have killed the cop or not.” Today I know that the cop was in the right.”

    That, right there, is why my self defense plan is to leave the area.

    The only time I will use deadly force against anyone is to protect myself and the people directly under my mantle of protection. I will not engage in a conflict, unless I saw the start of the conflict. And, I better be damned well, absolutely, 1,000%+++ triple sure I understand what started it, and who was in the wrong.

    I will never tell anyone what their self defense plan should be. But, mine starts out with a mission statement of “get home alive, make sure my loved ones do as well.” Engaging in conflicts that I have no skin in conflicts with that mission.

    I do not care if it is a 88 year old grandmother, or a fit/strong mid 20s man that is in the fight. Not mine, I get out, call police/authorities, and survive to see tomorrow.

    Today, I plan on hiking. I am planning on taking the route out of town that avoids the city. I will be miles into the woods until evening. Avoid it. I will not go to “see” it. I will not counter protest. I will let the morons who want to destroy western civilization have their day. I need look no further than the attempt to destroy Kyle Rittenhouse to see the logic in this choice.
