9mm vs 7.62

Posted on July 24, 2015 | 2 comments

Two of those five slain Chattanooga military recruiters apparently were not defenseless. They were risking their careers carrying at least one unauthorized 9mm pistol and another kind not identified. They used them to defend themselves and others in returning the Jihadi’s AK-47 semi-auto rifle fire.

Of course they were at a disadvantage because they were ambushed. They didn’t know their lives were about to be on the line. And they were outgunned. The 9mm round has a slightly larger diameter than the  7.62 rifle bullet but the latter has more than twice the muzzle velocity and consequently more than four times as much hitting power. Explained here.

Nice to see post-attack gun sales rising and gun-owning citizens protecting recruiters while Barry Hussein’s Pentagon dithers (what else?) about legally arming them. It took him five days to authorize flying flags at half-staff. So far, all the recruiters who don’t carry illegally have got are those weenie “gun-free zone” decals on their front doors, which only impress the gun-grabbers.

UPDATE:  Barry Hussein’s “soldiers” ask the civilian guards to stop it. Good thing they can’t order them to stop it.

The 12th Man vs the 12th Imam

Posted on July 18, 2015 | 1 comment

While they’re busy building nuclear bombs under an appeasing American president’s new agreement, the Iranian mullahs need to finally own up to a flaw in their theology.

Their hidden 12th Imam is a corruption, a foolish misunderstanding of the 12th Man at Texas A&M University. That’s why the 12th Imam is hidden. He’s a long way away from Iran.

Now that they’ll be getting all the nukes they want, plus billions of American dollars to help them buy conventional arms to keep up the terrorism they support worldwide, the least they can do is admit their theological mistake.

It’s time for them to bow to the superior Aggie concept of the 12th Man.

“Obama negotiates like a Care Bear”

Posted on July 17, 2015 | 2 comments

I’d post this video if I could figure out how.  For now you’ll have to go here to see it. Don’t miss it. I’m pretty sure it’s a Spanish parody. If so it’s a pretty accurate one.

The Europeans hated Bush. They’re laughing at Obama,

Terrorism in Tennessee

Posted on July 17, 2015 | 5 comments

Another blood-thirsty jihadi, another sha’ria lover and wannabe kiddie diddler, goat-f**ker and wife-beater. And four dead Marines and a dead sailor at a military recruiting center.

More talk and bureaucratic promises you can bet will come to nothing, swept under the federal rug by the usual suspects. Since, as Gov. Jindal says, we can’t defeat Muslim evil without first recognizing that it exists. More raucous decrying of modern leftist practice of putting up gun-free signs—effectively inviting killers not to worry about armed self-defense—while declining to surreptitiously allow arms inside.

Reminded me of when I managed Army recruiters in 1970-71 from a 4-state recruiting command headquarters in West Virginia. None of us were armed, even at that time of heightened anger at the military over the Vietnam War thanks to lying public testimony by the likes of John Kerry.

But we were not stupid enough to advertise the fact to every idiot who might come calling—like everyone from Navy and Marine recruiters to kindergartners is forced by stupid politicians to do today. Damn their eyes!

UPDATE:  The jihadi schmuck might have been directed by ISIS. More. And you can probably thank both of them for a continuation of this noted increase.

MORE:  Meanwhile, the Democrat news media and the bureaucrats pretend the killer’s motive is still a mystery. Does anyone respect these idiots any more? Anyone with a grade-school education? They have no shame. At least Ted gets it.

Obama helps Iran get the bomb

Posted on July 14, 2015 | 2 comments

Our Little Barry Hussein and his pal Lurch have pretended for months that they were drawing up a treaty with Iran to stop or at least slow their acquisition of nuclear weapons.

Instead, as is increasingly becoming apparent, they are consistently covering for Iran, almost acting as if they were Tehran’s defense lawyer against the West. Thereby helping the Iranians get the bomb. Appeasement that could very well lead to a nuclear World War III

Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu says the deal is “paving Iran’s way to many nuclear bombs and gives it hundreds of billions of dollars for its terrorism and conquest machine, thereby endangering the peace of the entire world.”

That’s about right, since the “deal” mainly depends on the word of dictators whose word has never been good.

UPDATE:  They will cheat, we will do nothing. An Iranian victory; a Western catastrophe.

MORE:  From military historian Frederick Kagan: “…the agreement says nothing about Iran’s terrorist activities, human-rights violations or role in regional weapons proliferation—all of which were drivers of the embargo in the first place. Iran makes no commitment to change its terrorist or oppressive ways, but the international community promises to eliminate those sanctions anyway.”

Barry dithers while ISIS crucifies

Posted on July 7, 2015 | 2 comments

Crucifies and burns.

While Our Little Barry tells us—from a Pentagon platform, of all places—that guns have never defeated ideologies. Only superior ideas can do that.

Ignoring, as usual, the facts. Such as Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, the Confederacy, and etc. And when you consider Reagan’s buildup of “guns,” in the Strategic Defense Initiative, Soviet communism.

Obama priority: diversity not security

Posted on July 6, 2015 | 1 comment

“At a time when global terrorism is resurgent, when the Middle East is burning, when Russian boots are marching, when China is ramping up its military and Iran is on the verge of going nuclear, is it really a good idea to ask the CIA to concentrate on achieving a 30% minority quota in the agency’s leadership ranks?”

Sure it is, when your name is Barry Hussein Obama and going easy on ISIS and other jihadis and hard on the Kurds and Israelis is your game. After all, even NASA has been instructed to spend its time “reaching out” to Muslims. And the new CIA director is the scowling John Brennan, an Arabist, career bureaucrat and longtime specialist in obfuscating the Islamist threat.

Because turning the U.S. inside out is what our Little Barry is all about. He was, after all, a red-diaper baby, and so, as Judicial Watch has lately discovered, was his longtime chief adviser Valerie Jarrett. And they don’t seem to have lost any of it.
