    I'd like to know more about those solar generators.

    Sounds like a good thing to have.

    On a very sad note, my friend and fellow blacksmith George Dixon was swept away in the flooding in Asheville. His body was recovered a couple days later. God rest his good soul. He was deeply talented, highly skilled, intelligent, smart, and had a very good heart. I will miss him sorely, sd will many others. He touched many lives.
    May God look over his friends and family in their grief and suffering and ease their pain.

    I've just read that 200 people were found in a church in Candler NC, ALIVE!!!

    God bless those good people and the ones who came to their aid, and may God smite those filthy stooges of the Tyrant who have endeavored to thwart the efforts of those who endeavor to save life from destruction.

    I believe that with this latest example of "government" contempt for me and all my good fellows, I am now fresh out of tolerance and so am become dangerous. Few things as precarious as facing an old man devoid of any appreciable fear. I suspect I do not stand alone, and if that day comes, the wicked will rue my existence, for I will show none of God's mercy. And if that precludes my entry into the good place, i will just have to live with it. God wired me and shaped me and i will not betray the Voice with shows me the narrow way. I'm fed up and no longer give even the least shred of a $#@! what others think of me.

    No, I'm not going out on a shooting spree, but I surely am gearing up in my mind for the sorts of dance no good man ever wishes to see. But when the alternative makes that dance look inviting, I will make the choice, come what may.

    Death to all tyranny. May God's peace reign in the hearts of good men, and may we keep evil on very short leashes. As the "left" was so busily repeating to the nausea of the world, "enough is enough". Thank you, Captain Tautology.

    Democrats are not trying to throw an election.

    They are trying to destroy a country and doing a damn good job of it.

    The reason they have gone so far "over the top" is they reckon they have, or are just on the cusp of having, a majority of the voting public that agree.

    And they are probably right, between Marxists, women and migrants, they probably have a winning combination.

    And now ask yourself why.

    Consider that as stupid as lefties tend to be, functionally speaking, they are nonetheless very clever and crafty. I had a neighbor whose daughter had been poisoned with chlordane dust - long story. Lisa was functionally retarded, but boy oh God was she ever slick. She was unable to tell time, but she could machinate and manipulate and get what she wanted. Thus we find it with lefties in general, Democrats in specific to this discussion. They are functional retards who are adept and scheming and $#@!ing around.

    My suspicion is that the Democrats know they are in a corner in a very broad sense. Everything they have worked toward has failed wildly. Whether they believe in their own bull$#@! remains a matter of speculation. But either they do, or everything we see is a put on for the sake of peddling a deeper evil. The results remain the same. In their case, the results have been and stand to become further disastrous. They see this. They see that we the great majority are becoming significantly perturbed by it all and that if thing come to a head with Democrats at the helm, we may not be particularly kind to them. Being the filthy cowards that they are, not to mention pragmatists who are hell bent to have their vision realized, they understand that when this thing flies apart as it eventually must, they do not want to be in the position for blame to reach them.

    And so they put the most absurd stooge imaginable up for candidacy, along with another nitwit as her running mate. In the meanwhile, the current administration goes pedal to the metal to sow as much wild insanity as is possible just in time for Trump to inherit an utter disasterland. I'd suspect the thinking is that the Democrats see themselves as standing at the corner of "You're $#@!ed" and "We're Gonna Have Our Pound of Flesh". They are now strategically retreating to avoid plausible culpability. But that's not all. Buy in the next five minutes and receive a double whammy! The whammy here, to the considered benefit of the left will be that Democrats, having lost, will be able to wail, moan, and gnash their teeth most noisily over Trump. They can assume the role of victim, something at which they hold some non-trivial experience and expertise. They will almost certainly claim election interference and fraud, and will say Trump stole the election, wholly ignoring their previous howlings of "conspiracy theories" and "election interference" when Trump made the same assertions in 2020. And ANYTHING that goes wrong, regardless of how inconsequential and irrelevant can be blown out of proportion (sky's falling) and pinned on Trump.

    Now get this twist. Imagine that rather than flipping votes for Harris, they actually do so for Trump, guaranteeing his win. Not only do the Democrats dodge the bullet, they then have the opportunity to go on the offensive by suddenly getting all religious and $#@! over "election integrity". "We've conducted an exhaustive forensic investigation of the election results and have found at least twenty five million falsified ballots, every last one in favor of Donald Trump. This could be used as impeachment material. It could be used to gin up anger, rage, and ultimately violence on several fronts. It would certainly be used to put a spotlight on Trump, call is integrity into question, and perhaps see him off to Gitmo for a tribunal and the rope. I put NOTHING past Themme, Democrat OR Republican, the latter of whom have plenty to fear from a second Trump administration if the Donald is to be taken at his word regarding draining the swamp. Thousands, perhaps far more, stand to go to prison and I daresay that a great raft stand to face the gallows, as they ought.

    All of this could possibly lead to the establishment of precedents I would assume no sane and decent American would ever welcome. Just imagine in the wake of such events the shrieking calls of rage for something to be done. Imagine the scoundrels in Congress circling the wagons and finally deciding that they don't give a rat's flying $#@! what the people want. They've got to save our democracy! With that, draconian measures are passed and we the people get to suck it even more.

    Believe you me, the possibilities here are manifold and I would be surprised to find that Theye have no brainstormed all this well in advance.

    After all, this campaign with Harris is so weak as to all but shout that they don't want it. But if perchance they win by whatever virtue fortunate or otherwise, Theye go for the brass ring this time because either they need to go for the coupe de grace quickly in a shock and awe campaign in the face of a very angry majority, or they will meet with zero resistance and simply march over us once and for all.

    I really feel we are at a very critical nexus, but who can really say. If we the glorious just schlep along as we have since forever Theye may choose to push those risks off to another day and press merrily on as has been the custom for even time. We will know when we know.

    As for me, I still maintain that there is little to no hope for proper change to be affected using the broken system to correct itself. Assuming current conditions, when the choice can no longer be avoided, it will be war or capitulation. Theye will allow us no other alternative. Theye have no incentive to offer anything more generous and they have made it clear that they hate us with copious raw bile and venom.

    Get yer popcorn, things stand to get interesting pretty soon. Break out the whiskey too. No sense in soft-shoeing this dance with crummy beer.

    Reminds me. I have several rifles I need to sight in - an AR10, a .338 bolt gun, a pair of 17 HMRs, my 338 Spectre (AR), and I need to reconfirm the zero on my M1A match rifle. So much to do, so little time. And I need to build the fookin' greenhouse.

    As unpleasant as all this is, they're just marking time. The massive human experiment is already yielding results. These will accumulate and accelerate. This massive loss of life and ability will make most of, perhaps all, of this moot.

    It's a sad intermission. And kudos or blessings or whatever currency your divine accepts to everyone still trying to help each other.

    But an intermission none-the-less.

    The same thing that always makes sense still makes sense. Find like minded people and quietly prepare.

    Wow you really are an unhappy lad, so to help you we will say that you're smarter than I, and a better person. I sincerely hope this makes you feel better, because attempting to have a civil and adult conversation with you apparently does not.

    A civil and adult conversation tends to avoid a paternalistic tone.

    Try to tell me that you've never once in your life bridled at such an elementary suggestion and I'll happily call you a liar.

    The funny thing is, you've participated in the thread. You've critiqued my own answers to that question you think I haven't asked. You know I've asked myself that question. Have for months.

    As we age and our memories get weaker, it's wise of us to pause and consider that we can no longer be certain people haven't already tried our suggestions -- and we already know they have (at least on a good day).

    They call things like that aging gracefully. And such habits make all conversation more civil. Some consider it the very difference between conversing with and preaching at.

    A sharp tongue gets you nothing but people afraid to give you feedback. That never improved anyone's writing style. Nobody on earth has such a magnificent writing style that refinement is impossible.
