Regarding The Calculus

h/t WRSA

GVDL shared comments and thoughts at his site about the prospects for the upcoming sportiness.

One commenter shared his thought on how that will go. Go to Gerard's site, and read the exchange, then come back.

-----

1) The idea that LE, the Notional Guard, and the .Mil will work in lockstep is twaddle.

Read up on retired Lt. Gen. Russell Honore's memoirs regarding how that went during and after Katrina, then tell the class we're better, after Obama, at doing that now.

2) LE, all by itself, can generally fuck up a crowbar in a sandbox, unassisted.

I can only point to 5,000 news stories just in the last decade if you need references.

3) Their resources for handling a SWAT incident are neither comprehensive nor resilient.

Two bank robbers tied up the LAPD for most of a day. One Dorner tied up ALL OF CALIFORNIA for a week. One shooter at LAX, despite being downed by the airport cops in about 90 seconds, had LAX shut down for an entire day, and jammed up ATC throughout the country for days afterwards. And those are just three incidents from Califrutopia in RECENT times, let alone what would happen in 49 other states. 10 incidents in 10 states in the same week would cripple the country even if totally uncoordinated and random.

4) The Notional Guard, God bless 'em, regularly deploy to combat. Nonetheless, they spent 250 years earning their reputation as second-tier only after long and frequent evidence of same. It's great when they show up to help after a tornado or hurricane. Not so much if you think they're going to be the cavalry riding to the rescue, most times and places. They'd be better than the Mexican Army, sure. But even a decent Canadian active duty armored brigade would probably work them over. 1000 or 10,000 random actors in 50 states? Pfffft. At that point, the Notional Guard becomes a resupply point, not an impediment.

3) Active forces: As if.

a) The tooth to tail ratio is legendary.

b) They would be starting in the Green Zone, and are behind enemy lines from the minute they come out to play. Including their wives and families. You're sending the 1st Armored after Joe Blow? Tell me how that's going to work when he bombs their kids' playground, and shoots up the mall their wives shop at. They won't get 20 yards from post before they'll turn their turrets around, and RTB. Then the CG orders all dependents onto post, and locks the division down UFN, and laagers up the entire command inside his own wire. Game Over.

Air power? It is to laugh. Most of their flight lines are within effective range of .50cal sniper fire before they even get off the ramp. Their supply lines are all in occupied enemy territory. Food, POL, spare parts. They could fly for maybe a week, tops. Then they'd be grounded, if they ever even took off. And I don't even need SA-7s nor Stingers to get to that point.

4) Reality: Any commander would know that over half his troops would side with the insurgency, and not just a few commanders, who would all defect wholesale, with all equipment. Hell, that even happened in the Russian coup attempt, when it was still the Soviet uUnion, under the iron grip of the CCCP. You think good old boys in Texas, Georgia, NC, etc. would be less inclined to start stringing up generals, or more???

It's even odds that the minute you tried going all posse commitatus on American soil, Marines from Quantico and Lejeune would have already seized the White House, and be holding the entire NCA under guard before anyone else had a chance to stop it, and they'd be reinforced by the 82d AB division and Special Forces before lunch time.

5) There are more hunting licenses just in PA than there are all troops in the US Army.

By 50%.

There are more hunting licenses in the US (nearly 37M, last I looked) than the number of all soldiers in all armies of the world, combined.

Let's spot you that 3M of those are every active and reserve military member, and every LEO in the U.S.

So that only leaves hunters outnumbering cops and military in the country at 10:1 odds.

That war is over by breakfast on Tuesday the Monday it starts, and 90% of them don't even get to fire a shot before Team Oppression is extinct.

The second and third volley wipes out every Democommunist in these United States, and that's less ammo than those hunters used to sight in last year.

Seriously, the idea that this would be hard is risible.

9 out of 10 hunters would be skunked, without anyone but civilians to shoot at, and that's the biggest tragedy in the whole scenario.

6) A couple of years before his untimely death, WeaponsMan estimated (with copious supporting records and documentation) that the oft-cited hoary statistic of "200M guns" in the US was off and understating things by a factor of 3, minimum. (Common Core grads, that means there were 600,000,000 guns.) That was several years ago, and recent events and sales lead one to the inevitable conclusion that there are probably circa 1 BILLION firearms in private hands in the U.S., and several trillions of rounds of ammunition for same.

7) The idea that we couldn't defeat Iraq and Afghanistan is ludicrous. Our military couldn't, certainly, under Marquess Of Queensbury ROE that required them to extend their pinky fingers, and wait to be shot at before returning fire. But if we simply turned hunters loose on those two countries, and issued bounties, you could move in lions and buffalo to restock the human deserts they'd become, if we'd taken that approach, and it wouldn't have taken more than about a month. And both former nations' populations would be as extinct as Carthaginians after the Third Punic War.

"But Aesop, we'd NEVER do that!!"

Perhaps not. More's the pity.

Now tell me the average hunter wouldn't decide that in a civil war, all bets were off, and human life was too precious to shed blood on behalf of liberty and freedom.

Bear well in mind, you'd be selling this to people who kill a deer every year, and already like guns.

I haven't even brought in the other 200M gun owners with no hunting license, who just want to be left alone. So please, tell me they're all going to sit this one out. I think it far likelier they'll settle that shit with one magazine expended apiece, and then go home in peace for the next 100 years, because they could at that point.

And some of them would take the time to mount the heads on pike poles at the city gates afterwards, pour encourager les autres.

8) I'm supposed to be afraid of Big Tech, and neighbors, because reasons.

a) Tech runs on power. If you forgot that, you're an amateur, and should get back on the porch. If you didn't know that because you never thought of it, shame on you. And kindly STFU. Adults are talking.

b) Neighbors run on food. Right now, "snitches get stiches". In civil war, snitches get body bags. And it's tough to tattle if you can't phone it out. Those Karens are going to learn to MYOFB, or they're going to be an endangered species in about a heartbeat. Some will figure it out after the first time they get cold-cocked like Moldylocks did. The ones who keep yapping after that will resemble Eddie Adams' portrait of a VC in Saigon, just as his mind was opened to a new way of thinking. Suture self.

Bug? Feature? Depends which side of the muzzle you're on.

c) How did big tech, a military machine, and snitches work for TPTB in Saigon, Beirut, or Sarajevo?

How about in Baghdad or Kabul? Are we winning there, or not? Show your work.

So yes, things will get sporty, then they'll get ugly.

But anyone that thinks this is going to be a losing proposition for Average Joe are trying to wargame army men against Indians, thinking the cavalry's carbines are insurmountable.

Tell that to Custer.

That's the correct paradigm to look at a civil (which will be anything but) conflict between the people and the .gov in this country.

Team Oppression can make an example out of the brave but stupid, certainly.

But in the end, they're going to be a dead elephant making a meal for jackals, buzzards, and ants.

Ozymandias said to tell them "Hi".

And in case no one told you, this war - and that's what it is - kicked off at 8PM Hawaiian time, 11/3/2020. Much like WWII started for the US the day the Japanese carrier fleet sailed for Honolulu. Not on Dec. 7th.

You are in the battlespace prep phase of things.

Get busy, and start getting your crap in one bag.

Why I Call Him Gabbin' Nuisance...

PALO ALTO, Calif. (KGO) -- Bay Area nurses are expressing concern over an ICU training plan announced By Governor Gavin Newsom on Monday.

"We're looking at training RNs, this two-day, very effective, focused to training to speed up opportunities to bring nurses into the ICUs to help out patients that's being rolled out as well," Newsom said at Monday's press conference, detailing the state's strategy to prepare for surging COVID-19 numbers.

Subtitled:

"How To Convince 50,000 Doctors and 200,000 Nurses That You're So Dumb You Don't Know How Blisteringly Dumb You Are".

Apparently next week, CA Gov. Gabbin' Nuisance will also roll out his 5-minute EMT course, his 1 hour paramedic class, and his 5-day brain surgeon program. But this explains how he became governor by collecting enough soda cans and boxtops.

I'm also pretty sure that for going on 30 years, if you have an IQ over 80, you're not allowed to go into politics in this state.

FTR, as stated in the news report, (which amazingly contains actual news) it does, indeed, take a minimum of 6-12 months to train a nurse to function minimally in the ICU, and 2-3 years of practice there to be fully competent at that job.

Suggesting, even if one were high on crack and drunk as hell, that any nurse could be turned loose in any ICU after 2 days, even if they meant a full 48 hours of training, is so asinine as to be beyond even my encyclopedic command of profanity to adequately describe. (But in my defense, if I ever come face-to-face with this asshole, I'll give it a herculean effort.)

Gabbin' Nuisance, Alzheimer Nancy's obviously retarded nephew, demonstrates yet again that no amount of shit will adequately substitute for brains, and this is just the latest proof of concept.

Random Thoughts On Sporty Times

I have an extensive and well-thumbed library of militaria, including guerrilla and unconventional warfare. So do many of you. But always remember some timeless concepts, as the chances for a quiet and orderly society are evaporating by the day.

___________________________

C-A-R-V-E-R. Google it. Learn it, live it, love it.

You can't get ballistics off of buckshot. You're also going to have a tough time getting fingerprints off of expended molotovs.

IEDs can be made out of anything. The VC used to put a bullet in a piece of bamboo over a nail in a board, and it worked just fine. Hollywood explosions are a modicum of black powder substitute in a baggie with an ignition source, sitting under a gallon of unleaded in a trashbag.

Indians used to cut telegraph lines, then ambush the wire repair party. Some ideas never get old. Except now we also have water mains, fiber optic cables, cable TV, cell repeaters, etc., ad infinitum.

If a few cubic yards of concrete accidentally get poured into an underground vault, you ain't repairing that for some time.

The same is true if you weld manhole covers and service plates to their rings.

If you shoot the boss, they can replace him in 15 minutes. If you hit the truck with the tools and supplies, that takes days to weeks to replace. But if you take out the guys who fix the stuff, they take months to years to replace. And the other ones don't want to show up for work either, afterwards.

BLM and Antifa already have a rep for burning things, and trying to derail trains. They should get 100% credit for anything like that going forward, forever.

If someone shoots a guy driving a truck, there's a body. But if someone drops a letter off with pictures of his kids at school, and he decides maybe he ought to call in sick, there's no body, and little to follow up on. (One might even have the envelope delivered at a truck stop, and suggest he uncouple, and return home without his load.) Same result.

A train track missing a rail on the outside of a medium curve will usually derail a train. (With modern rails, you have to bridge the contact between the section with wire or something, which BLM has figured out, per recent news reports.)

If that derailment happens to interfere with a major industrial plant, arterial roadway, etc., that's a two-fer.

This is the same reason military manuals recommend dropping tall objects (trees, towers, smokestacks) over roadways, bridges, and power transmission lines. Half the effort, twice the result.

Magnesium burns at 3100°. Thermite (which is equal parts rust dust and aluminum powder or flakes) burns at 4000°. Liquid and natural gas pipelines, cell towers, and telephone block boxes are rather fragile.

ATMs are nowhere near as robustly protected as banks.

You should have maps of solid blue areas, and the downtown hubs, which would essentially become free-fire areas in sporty times. No sense inconveniencing your own people or their neighborhoods if a precision attack would do a much better job.

If a HVT has a back-up generator, they probably don't have two generator back-ups.

Find single points of failure, and exploit them.

Backgammon depends on luck. Chess is for planners.

Going head-to-head against armored vehicles is bad.

Getting the guys inside when they come out to take a piss is much easier.

At modern ordnance counts, it would take hundreds of attacks to cripple a battalion. The same thing can be accomplished with bad food and bad water, and a few hundred cases of the trots.

Armies march on their stomachs. Logistics caravans are always more lightly defended than they ought to be.

Even Samson was defeated by first being weakened, blinded, and hobbled.

Achilles' strength, too, was legend, but the moral is the same: find Achilles' heel.

If you're asking questions of prisoners, remember the immortal words of Dennis Miller:

"Red is positive. Black is negative."

Also remember, it's not technically "waterboarding" if you use diesel.

It takes one bad election to make an insurgent; it takes 10+ years to make another communist. When in doubt, always remember, every dead communist is one less communist. Don't be squeamish or sentimental.

#################

These are by no means comprehensive nor exhaustive in nature; merely a few thoughts to keep me warm inside on a cold night.

I mention all this not to unleash havoc, but because evidently one side has clearly forgotten what a high-trust society this is, and thus has absolutely no f***ing idea what happens when you use any means available to undermine the most basic trust in the electoral system, and everything else disappears almost instantly as a consequence.

Read up on what happened in places like Beirut, Sarajevo, and Caracas.

Or just wait awhile, and see it firsthand.

If You See Something...

Many, if not all of you, have probably seen part or all of this viral video:

It's justified distilled rage, and absolutely heartbreaking.

Some dimbulbs might even think this is the sort of fiat jackassery I approve of, but nothing could be further from the truth.

I said months ago, back in May, that the time to end blanket lockdowns was over. We've long since passed the time when that sort of extra-legal unconstitutional horseshit could be justified on the grounds of an "emergency".

Two days in? Sure. Even two weeks. Maybe even two months.

But ten months into this, it's not an "emergency".

FFS, we're already delivering the first wave of "COVID babies": the kids conceived when people were first stuck at home, with nothing to do but make babies.

So trying to claim "emergency" actions are justified at this date is pure undiluted rose fertilizer.

But, having a few decades in The Biz, I know how movie production locations work.

And those location tents for catering for the crew are usually watched by 2-3 unarmed rent-a-cop security guards. Ditto for the production trucks, with hundreds of thousands of $$$ worth of equipment needed to make a TV show, commercial, or movie.

Lighting, cables, wardrobe, camera and sound gear, etc.

And if I were losing my restaurant, business, livelihood, life savings, my very existence, due to the arbitrary, capricious, and wholly unjustified whims of the assholes who think they run the world, I might be inclined to think outside the box. Or, at least, outside the bottle.

"Hey, that's a nice movie you got there. Be a real shame if anything happened to it."

Just saying. Not advocating.

Hollywood, for all its talk, is run by pussies. If a couple of locations spontaneously combusted, that'd be it. They'd run and hide, or fold up.

They might even be shamed out of living separate lives, and maybe they'd contract with restaurants like the one in the video being run out of business, and buy their meals directly from them, instead of catering companies. Win-win.

But at any rate, the system of two sets of rules, one for the protected benighted Special Snowflake buddies of TPTB, and one for the little taxpaying peons, would end after the expenditure of less than $20 worth of Regular Unleaded and a few glass empties.

Artillery delivered by the fifth or by the beer bottle is pretty hard to stop, not just with Kung Flu injustices, but with certain electoral shenanigans.

"Hey, that's a nice banana republic you almost stole. Be a shame if anything happened to it."

Government is only legitimate if it derives its existence from the consent of the governed.

When that consent is stolen forcibly and non-consentually, one thing's for certain:

There are a lot of ways for the violated peons to be a real flaming pain in the ass.

Aren't there?

Debunked? NOTHING Has Been

No one's explained why a USPS truck driver was trucking 20-30 pallet-sized cartons of already-completed PA ballots into PA from NYFS.

No one's explained why all poll watchers and press were lied out of the Atlanta counting room.

No one's explained why after that happened, multiple cartons of ballots were pulled out of hiding and counted, God alone knows how many times.

No one's explained why the woman responsible for that explained on her social media page that she admitted to stuffing the Atlanta ballot boxes and throwing the election victory from Trump (when the rules were being followed) to Biden (once the ballot stuffing began).

No one's explained satisfactorily why Dominion voting machines are pre-loaded to count a single vote for Trump as .87 votes, and a vote for Biden as 1.13 votes (which was why you had the ridiculous fractions of votes showing up on live tallies all night).

No one's explained why all the key swing states all decided, independently, to stop counting votes after 2AM, nor why when they resumed there were magical swings in votes suddenly giving Biden just barely enough votes to win every single state.

No one's explained how, in states that were split 51/49, there suddenly appeared whale-choking gobs of ballots that were 98% Biden, and 2% Trump.

No one's explained why Republican poll watchers were systematically excluded from all the states where such obvious and massive shenanigans occurred, and why the windows were blocked, and why, when they were allowed to watch, it was from half a football field away, through binoculars, providing anything but an actual view of the proceedings.

None of this has been "debunked', no matter how many times the lying sonsofbitches at Communist News Network et al keep repeating The Big Lie, and trying to gaslight the entire country on the real score, when they talk about it at all.

Because there is no explanation, except to acknowledge that election fraud and stealing, not on an Industrial Age scale, but on an Information Age scale, took place in plain sight on Election Night, and for days afterwards, cheered on and abetted by an anti-Trump and pro-communist media, exactly as described by the president, and just as anyone with two brain cells has seen with their own lying eyes.

People were willing to shoot federal agents over one old thieving geezer's range land grazing fee thefts in Nevada. They were one wonky trigger spring from opening the ball, and that was years ago.

Everybody that thinks 70M people now - who know in their bones they've been cheated of a landslide election victory - are going to roll over for wholesale presidential election theft, and do nothing, signify that by standing on your head.

So let's forget that line of appeasement horseshit, and get down to the hog-killin'.

If TPTB try to brazen this out, and install an unlawfully selected leader over this country, they're going to get one helluva shocking surprise. And it's going to leave a mark.

And it's also going to spread faster than Kung Flu once it gets rolling, and make Team Commie wish for the good old days of just being content with their share of the graft.

I'm trying to see a downside to this, but it's getting harder every passing day to even care, and easier to just want to get down to it.

Through The Looking Glass

Biden obviously won.

Trump is delusional.

Theories of election fraud have all been debunked.

Global warming is real.

You can print money forever without consequence.

You can tax your way to prosperity.

To the Leftards, these and dozens more recockulous lunacies are all self-evident "truths".

They're as sure of them as they are that the sun will rise in the morning.

Their soothsayers at ABCNNBSeeBS all assure them of the immovably true truthiness of all of it, and ignore everything that doesn't fit that narrative.

Not content to merely exclude opposing views, they now try to eliminate all trace of them, and then go after their families.

And in about 7 weeks, if not sooner, this is what happens:

They're going to be stunned, gobsmacked, shocked, their flabber will be well and truly gasted, and they will have the unmistakable imprint of a cod on their faces when they get codwalloped.

And some of them are going to be the first ones on their block to be the guys prying that IED out of the ground.

Play stupid games: win stupid prizes.

But they really and truly live in an alternate reality, and have no idea exactly what they've been prying on this time, and won't until their minds are opened.

Generally, by pieces of steel and exploding Composition B, at about 4000fps.

Those terms are acceptable.

Sunday Music: Find Your Way Back

Bog simple kick@$$ rock anthem from a mature band with nothing to prove, and got them their first charted single. I was never a fan of J.A. (because I didn't drop acid in the '60s), but this one from the re-organized J. Starship iteration is timeless, and sounds as good now as it did nearly 40 years ago. if anything, it underlines how humble and simply untalented most modern schlock rock is.

Wounds My Heart With A Monotonous Languor...

You. SOON. Is that a good look for you?

"If...If...

We didn't love freedom enough. And even more - we had no awareness of the real situation....We purely and simply deserved EVERYTHING that happened afterward."

Those words ring down through all time. And they really do wound my heart with a monotonous languor. And yes, I chose that phrase a-purpose. Capice?

Sound familiar, people? You don't feel like you understand what's really happening?

You don't love freedom enough to stand up for it at the only chance you're ever going to get, consequences be damned? Burglars and despots rarely send out appointments. It's come-as-you-are. Ready or not. You think you're going to magic your way out of that date?

If so, you can expect to deserve the same EVERYTHING that Solzhenitsyn and his fellows received. In spades.

Too harsh? Try it in a lighter vein:

"We're afraid! We might get in trouble!"

Well you can just kiss my ass.

I don't care if you puss out. I don't care if Trump even throws in the towel. (And I don't think he will, but even if he did, it wouldn't matter.) This ain't about him, nor simple partisan shoving at the trough. It's about the entire idea of America. You're willing to wimp out on that? Enjoy your boxcar ride, and see what coloring inside the lines gets your Quisling ass down the road.

There isn't going to be another chance in 2022, 0r 2024. Or EVER.

This was the last election where you had a shot.

I repeat:

This was the last election where you had a shot. There will never be another.

There won't be another free election in your lifetime, for anyone who reads this, unless this gets addressed, and I mean but now.

Not in a minute, next week, end of the month, nor 6 months, not in a year, not in NeverNeverLand fairytales somewhere down the road.

This month and next. By them. Or by you. Or, please God, by Us.

And the absolute final expiration date on that is Jan. 20, 2021. At noon, EST.

That's the absolute Go To Hell date.

If TPTB won't fix it before then, they have no reason to fix it, ever.

And they won't, nor show any sign of doing anything other than ignoring you, wholesale.

And if they don't do it RFN, what're you gonna do about it?

Vote at them?

That's risible, and derisible, simultaneously.

Any fucktard sumbitch talking about "regrouping" and "continuing on forward" for "next time" that hasn't factored in ropes, bullets, and napalm in their calculus is talking out their ass.

There isn't going to BE a "next time".

That outcome was the whole point of THIS time.

"Imagine a boot stamping on a human face, forever."

Absolutely god-damned right.

That's the message, delivered with precision, clarity, and finality.

If you don't get that, in your bones, you're self-selecting to be collateral damage.

And about you, if you wallow in that amidst your self-pity, IDGAF.

"This could never happen here. We're a democracy." - Venezuela, 1998

Nobody is coming to save you. This ain't the movies, and you ain't John Wayne.

Why? "Because we're here, lad. Nobody else. Just us."

If you have a leader, follow them.

If you don't, BE one.

If TPTB go through with this, if they think they can brazen the theft of an election, a presidency, and an entire country, simply because they don't care about what it costs them, there's but one answer to that.

In the absence of orders or direction from higher authority, find someone or something Communist, and destroy it. Lather, rinse, repeat.

That's going to be the Prime Directive for some good time. Count on it.

If...if...

IF you love freedom enough.

This Is A Man To Ride The River With

Pull quote from the last paragraph of POTUS' national address last night.

"Gets it"??

He just threw down the gauntlet, and dared everyone from SCOTUS on down to try and pull a fast one on this election.

Sphincters inside the DC Beltway just tightened up to an 11.

This one's for all the marbles, the head, the tail, and the whole hide.

God may have mercy on anyone who thinks they're getting away with this fraud.

The rest of us won't.

Breaking: No Evidence Of Voting Fraud

USPS trailer driver brings two yuuuuuuge boxes of completed Pennsylvania ballots from Bethpage, NY, to Lancaster PA.

Federal mail. Crossing state lines.

But AG Barr, with his head clenched waaaaay up into his @$$ cheeks, says he sees "no evidence of election fraud".

Move along.

Nothing to see here.

The people who orchestrated this election steal need to be beheaded (with a dull rusty chainsaw), drawn, quartered, burned, and their charred remains carried and displayed on an open trailer to the four points of the country.

Yes, actually.

Pour encourager les autres.

PSA: Just A Refresher

Mainstream Pravda has pretty well fornicated up any hope of getting straight information, and remains nearly 100% fact-free, for going on decades now, so for those keeping score at home, we provide a few handy reminders to remember, as you go about your lives.

How BFYTW Works When You Redline It

If someone is a politician or public employee in on the Big Con, from any party, at any level above deputy assistant dogcatcher, after the coup is fully enabled, they're going to be a high value target.

Nota bene: I'm not calling for this. That's just what happens. It's inevitable.

If someone is enabling the coup and gaslighting the reality of election fraud, via anything from twaddling on tweeter, to reading the nightly ABCNNBCBeeEss propaganda, they're going to be a target.

If anyone gets between the Coup and The People, to defend the former from the justified wrath of the latter, they're going to find out what feeding their jangly bits into a wood chipper - slowly - feels like, and deservedly so. (Doubt it? Go watch any number of videos of Ukrainian riot police getting hit with a shitstorm of Molotov cocktails in their APCs, and subsequently toasted alive, and get back to the class.)

ZFG.

Those desirous of collecting any pension should stand down, stay home, or switch sides. No warning shots will be fired. And after the first one, the rest are free, and there's no point in moderation once that Rubicon is crossed. 

If anyone is cheering it on, they're going to be in play as well.

And their businesses, goods and chattels, and if it comes to it, their own relatives and relations will be so much collateral damage. {Google: Bombing of Dresden In World War II)

Except the offended parties aren't liable to be as precise* as Norden bombsights were.

Nor to GAF about the niceties.

Sh*t happens, kids. Sherman knew: "War is all Hell."

This sort of thing doesn't require a savior, nor a general, nor even a Robbespierre or Rasputin, to happen. In fact, the less Command and Control that exists, the hotter it burns, and the wider the napalm splashes. Because if there's no one to turn it on and aim it, there's no one to turn it off, nor keep it pointed in any specific direction.

(And if you think anyone and everyone won't use "Weapons Free" Spicy Time as an excuse to settle any number of private grievances, from legit to petty, because Marquess Of Queensbury Rules, I've got a bridge for sale to you, cheap.)

"Bosnia x Rwanda." - Matt Bracken

Think Three Stooges pie fight.

With land mines.

In a gasoline refinery.

And it isn't about who gets elected.

It's about whether elections matter at all, or not.

It's about whether the republic stands, or falls.

It isn't Trumpistas against Never-Trumpers.

It's not going to be Democrats vs. Republicans.

It's going to be constitutional republicans vs. banana republicans.

And they won't be Goldwater republicans.

They're going to be LeMay republicans.

FTR, the most elegantly simple way to know one side has reached that magic value for "enough", is when there aren't any more left to kill.

At all.

The Democrat communist Left (but I repeat myself) is running their locomotive full steam in the red zone, right at the bridge over that chasm, to get the coup they've huffed and puffed and salivated for, since 2015 (if not 1933, or 1912).

And that bridge they're counting on getting over? 

Not there.

Dear DNC: Drive like hell. You'll get there.

Everything that happens after that last inch is crossed is simply gravity, working.

BFYTW.

*(FTR, the Norden bombsight was so accurate it enabled B-17 and B-24 pilots to drop 500# bombs to an accuracy of minute of grid square. Sometimes, minute of city. And that's when they were even trying. What's coming is going to be more like a flamethrower duel in a toilet stall. And the courts at all levels including SCOTUS fumbling - accidentally or on purpose - their upcoming part in the ongoing coup is going to accelerate that, not mitigate it nor quench it. Bet your @$$ on that. And this isn't going away just because it pisses you off, nor even if you click your heels together and repeat "There's no place like home. There's no place like home." You're not in Kansas anymore, Toto. Best wrap your head around that Reality, soonest.)

A Time For Choosing

"Today you will choose..."

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new guards for their future security." - Declaration of Independence, 1776

When last I looked, that declaration signed by the Continental Congress in 1776, has never been subsequently revoked.

If TPTB swear Biden in, knowing full well the scope of fraud was so enormous as to be visible from space, there's no reason not to raise the black flag, and start slitting throats.

I am not speaking metaphorically nor in parables.

From that moment forward, it's on like Donkey Kong, and anything that happens after that is fair game.

Wrap your heads around that fact: there is no law restraining any conduct once all law has been thusly violated. Period.

Marquess Of Queensbury Rules will be notable by their absence.

Yap all you want about who will or won't play.

You're beating your gums and your keyboards in vain.

Some people will, and when they do, they'll be entirely within their rights as human beings for doing so.

Anyone and everyone too timid to join the fray at that point deserves whatever happens to them afterwards.

The only question germane to discussion at that moment is

"Will you be a serf, or a free man?"

The only Rule Of War is simple:

"Don't lose."

"Dear DNC: The only thing missing is you..."
