Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

I've posted this before, (just back on July 9th), but since we're sharing, I once got off of a Murder trial. It was so high profile that they had all prospective Jurors fill out a 3 or 4 page questionnaire before they ever started actual interviews. One of the questions was about hobbies or groups you were associated with. I answered that I was a member of the NRA, GOA, the Single Action Shooting Society, and a faithful listener of Rush Limbaugh. Never heard back from them.

The new "Supergirl" movie is even worse. Hollywierd keeps trying to make movies for their mythical "modern" audience, and then wondering why nobody goes to see the movie. They keep wanting to put their "spin" on the story, while not understanding the the Source Material is what people that like it want to see. So far they've killed Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Marvel, Willow, and now D.C. Probably more that I can't come up with right now.

I'm going to get in trouble for THIS!: Bulverism, see "Democrat".

https://www.ebay.com/str/barsonyholsters Well, here is a link to their ebay page. You can try the "Contact Seller" button and ask questions. I've never dealt with them, so I have no idea what you'll find. I've looked at their page before, and to ME they look like many other cheap holster makers that make more or less a generic holster that "fits" multiple guns of similar build. Good Luck.

That last season of the show they were basically just phoning it in. WB told them to shut it down to make room for the new DC movie series. Which is a BIG flop. If that scene hadn't just been a plot hole to reveal Superman's identity, he probably could have turned aside just enough to have the bullet miss him while at the same time deflecting it with his hand enough to not hit the waitress behind him.

I know that this isn't what you want to hear, but they sell on ebay.

Any injury sends the injured into Shock. To combat Shock, you keep the person warm. The injury itself might be best treated by cold on only that specific area.

"Smart money says that 90% of their people want the mohammedan warlords and their thugs gone and be able to return to the prosperity of pre-revolution Iran, but without the brutality of the Shaw." I'd like to think that you're right. But most of the Muslim world, no matter where they are, (Mandami), looks at the U.S. as "The Great Satan". Even if the Iranian people ARE freed from the Mullas, what makes us think that they will be a friend to us? One of the primary tenets of Islam is to kill the Infidels, which we are. "Like in Puerto Rico, when their government banned the US Navy from using a gunnery range. We closed the base because it's only real purpose was a base for our ships who were getting in gunnery practice on that range." The Philippine government did the same thing back in the late '80s. Then they got all butt hurt when we left and took literally everything except the buildings with us.

Stolen from Fake Book. Redneck Chainsaw.

Iran will NEVER become a "member in good standing" of a civilized world. They're like a rabid dog. The "rightful place" for 90% of their people should be the same.

I don't think it's about oil as in the oil supply for US, but rather a steady supply of oil for much of the rest of the world. The whole thing hasn't affected OUR oil supply so much as the instability for everybody else has caused prices to rise. Once the region is stabilized, prices should go back down. That should stabilize everything else. And I'm guessing that our companies being there will stabilize it even more because our guys will want their own people there to "keep the piece" as it were. Also with American companies there, any future problems WILL be our concern. Again guessing, maybe the thinking is that anybody thinking about starting anything there might just think again knowing that.

It generally seems to work out that way for him.

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he is replacing his proposed 20 percent reimbursement fee on cargo ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz with trade and investment deals involving Gulf states Full article here: https://www.breitbart.com/middle-east/2026/07/14/trump-drops-20-strait-of-hormuz-reimbursement-fee-says-gulf-states-will-make-massive-u-s-investments/

I'm not sure that they can do that. I don't think that 4473s are public information. They may be basing their conclusions on NICS checks. Just a guess.

My point exactly.

Not saying that NATO has anything to do with it. NATO has done pretty much nothing except be a threat to bullies in the region. And the threat has only worked because they had the U.S. to back it up. Until Trump started pushing them, the rest of NATO was coasting along not even coming close to paying their part. The alternative is to let Iran take charge of it and control the flow of Crude flowing through it. THAT would be Piracy. The U.S. taking charge is akin to a Cop stopping a bully from beating people up. The Cop gets paid to do so, why shouldn't we? I'd bet that our charging 20% is a lot less than Iran would charge.

They may have the resources, but not the courage. I'm sure that when this thing IS over, they'll gladly take advantage of the result while at the same time somehow blaming the whole thing on us. Sounds like another example of NATO at work.

My old Landlord was around back in those days. He told me one time about a trip he was taking back in the '30s, between here in Tucson and somewhere in California. The road was a Plank Road only wide enough for one car. When two cars met going opposite directions, the drivers would get out, move several of the planks to go around one car, who would use it to do just that, then the drivers would replace the planks and both would continue their trip. Obviously these planks weren't the 8 X 12 planks referred to in the original article, but something smaller.

But you ARE a Certified Horses Appendage. That's why we love you here. Besides, you make a lot of sense, mostly.

Makes perfect sense to me. We're the ones doing the work, we should get paid for the work. Same reason I won't use the self checkout at Walmart. There isn't anybody else that COULD do it anyway.

In general, whoever hires the outfit that performs the survey is looking for a specific result. The survey company will do everything they can to get that result. Which includes surveying people they think will answer the way that they want, and disregarding answers they don't like.

You could just about say that about ANY "survey" that comes out.

I was thinking the same thing, but I don't have a patch.
