I’m baack?

Bondo told me someone was actually reading my stuff, and would I be interested in actually writing some more. Well my confidence level isn’t running all that high after getting disgusted and running dry a year ago. (1yr. I checked). A lot can happen in a year.  Riots, cities burning, Covid Commies closing down countries, crashing economies, and conditioning sheep to do whatever dance they want them to next. I am sitting in Illinois, almost in Indiana, and there is not much difference, just a few more snowflakes.  Tiny towns are about the same, but governors are following a plan, and it’s not the people’s.  Covid has been proven a farce with less than 10,000 deaths (CDC said so) yet lockodowns and mask madness continues.

     The powers that be want to hang the kid that defended himself with a semi automatic rifle to the proud boys got jail time for fighting back, and corrupt judges are still sitting on the bench.  Should we expect justice to prevail??  Grab your popcorn, but keep your bugout bag close.  Antifa and BLM are getting a pass on violence, mayhem and murder, while politicians are allowing it, and the federal has no power or authourity to remove anyone for Treason or Insurrection.  I’m sorry I ain’t buying it.  Local Sherrifs could put a stop to all this just like they could illegal immigration.  Still not a peep, and everybody’s hands are tied??  We are expected to believe no one figured who wrote checks for those caravans?  Now we see Apple,Google,Wal Mart, and several others are donating millions to BLM, ANTIFA, and others to keep the mayhem going.  We need to see who is profiting from the essential businesses making a killing.  Through all this GOD keeps his eyes on his sparrows.  If we educate no one about this madness, we can expect to stand alone, or be turned in by them, if we refuse to conform. Keep the conversation going.  It will be a bitter pill at first for some, but not many want to be related to the idiots that think burning the country is going to bring more free stuff.  Indeed the madness continues, and the landslide covered up in 16 will be just a glimpse of the fraud and corruption planned for 2020.  Bullets and beans brothers and sisters!  They are promising a war, and the old, young and vulnerable are already being targeted. Get strapped or get clapped.  They will be trying to make examples of Christian Conservative types defending themselves, so don’t expect justice in an honest courtroom unless something drastic happens.  Oh, how will I know if I have a reader or two if no one ever leaves one comment.

Nothing much

 from mangledman:

Things are going along so, so.  There is a new alternative free speech platform that took off just over a week or so ago, and seems to be doing quite well.  It is pretty neat that moral, conservative, Christian people are showing up in droves.  There seems to be a huge lack of immoral trolls wich I f IP and puzzling so far.  If anyone wants to leave FB, Twitter type data mining, censored sites behind, head on over to USA.LIFE.com and check it out.  People showing up say positive things, and me not knowing any other social media, couldn’t know better.
Going to war in Venezuela didn’t go over well, but the propaganda band plays on.  Even the NY times picked up on the Molotov cocktail that was thrown to start the aid caravan on fire missed by mile, but the fire started on cue anyway.  Imagine that!!  Rubio screaming evil horrible socialists out one side of his mouth, but nothing about the ones in his chamber, while supporting RED FLAG UNCONSTITUTIONAL gun grabbing out the other.  I would like to think everybody knows Bolton’s job for politics is dirty for all to see in Nicaragua, and we’ll put him in charge of smuggling in weapons disguised as aide like before.  Hey it worked once and he got no jailtime!  I am so disgusted by with the same names wash, rinse, and repeat.  Nobody is facing charges, getting indicted, going to jail.  Is this not past pathetic?
I have been in the process of moving again.  Doctors and Pain management process is a shameful process, that I pity any sane person  endure.  If I hadn’t been down this road for decades, maybe, but doubtful any sense could be made.  Having been away for almost 5 years the bizarre is mind-boggling.  It seems like medicine went back to 70s standards, where everything was addictive.  What I wouldn’t give to find a good honest Doctor these days.
I did find a brighter side, and a positive note.  USA.LIFE has a lot of Christians and Pastors showing up, and it looks like an Island of Conservatives.
Doing family type things has me putting road miles in for the kids and moving too.  I’ll be durned if two Indiana Whitetails didn’t cross my path the other night.  There probably wasn’t two feet between them, and all I got was a headshot on the second one with the headlight.  Well our boy is tinkering with the headlight, so as I am looking for the critter to make sure it’s not lying there suffering. This County Mounty shows up. He’s got about 40 lbs on me, and as I am gimping down the road in the dark he wants to get face to face with me after we deduce my auto damaging vittles decided to decline the offer of my table.  I might not have been quite so offended if his hide wasn’t hanging out in traffic, so I straightened up looked him straight in the eyes, and kept right on talking.  Don’t know what it was, but if my posture was slouched he was practically touching me before I straightened up.  This intimidation tactic grates my craw, and by refusing to be intimidated and being  friendly with him he asks my kids if I am alright.  I guess I kinda feel sorry for some of these guys.  Thinking it is safe to be that close to somebody they don’t know, just met, requires far more bravado than common sense.  Police officers didn’t used to act this way.  They stayed arms length for safety sake.  We had a trooper shoot a man in the face and killed him about 6 weeks ago, and my wife today says no charges will be filed.  She brought it up just after it happened, several weeks later she said he is back on the job, and I said WHAAT!!  So I go read about four or five articles all say the same vague thing.  Then there was that one article with a witness statement.  The man was on his knees, officer knew he was legally armed, was in the process of disarming him, he gets shot in the face. Nothing to see here, Killer is back on the job, case closed.  So now in this day and age, Rural BIBLE BELT Indiana is no longer immune.  Maybe things will be stranger next week, who knows.  Get your bullets and beans in order, maybe find out where your like-minded people are, maybe even join or find a local militia.  Strange days ARE ahead.  Keep your Steel sharp and your powder dry, and GO WITH GOD

Political Atheists

 from mangledman:

What does it take in this day and age to become a political Atheists?  Well since Bondo mentioned the term, I think I caught it too.  Absolutely fed up?  Yeah, I think that describes this madness quite well.  If you vote for these guys, you are going to get absolute, complete immorality, and they are not afraid to show you the depths of depravity you voted for and will shove it in your face as fast as they get control of a microphone.  Oh, you voted for the other guys?  WHEW!!  What will you get for your vote??  Well quite subtly you will get a ramped up police state complete with Gestapo tactics that would send the THIRD REICH into giddy enthusiasm!  We thought DT would be different, an outsider, uncontrollable, his own man, not bound to party politics.  Well that mask fell right off when the NDAA was put in front of him, and he signed it, patted himself on the back about how good police protection is, while putting Tracked vehicles (Tanks) on American soil for police protection.  (POSSE Comitatus would ask who will drive them)  This being so wonderful, with all the unrest we don’t have, these fine Officers need machine guns and 50 calibers too.  Is that for the Machine Gun??  True to form opposite of defending the 2nd amendment, he decided to attack the 4th too in one fell swoop: “TAKE THE GUNS FIRST, THEN DUE PROCESS”!!  Two birds with one stone, so to speak.
When we look back General George Wesley Clark, I think it was warned us about Arab Spring before little o took office, and the age of drone bombings took off in several countries.  We had no clue bombs were being dropped all over the place in OUR  name, but that is how it happened.  We shipped tons of refugees to our shores most of military age.  This is all in the name of democracy for all, never considering we do not live under a democracy.  CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!  Our children have no clue.
Back to being a POLITICAL ATHIEST!!  Who actually represents WE THE PEOPLE!!  We want the right to protect ourselves.  Having a shotgun in the corner, or a pistol in the nightstand, is our business.  This has nothing to do with government unless they are very scared of law abiding citizens.  You now need padlocks, gun safes, and bullets stored separately, for what purpose?  When and if someone kicks down your door in the middle of the night, only seconds will count.  In minutes it will all be over.  How many times can one get stabbed or hit with a machete in 60 seconds.  The fully automatic UZI used to be a gangsta weapon of choice.  This weapon shoots around 600 rounds per minute.  A thirty shot clip means 20 reloads.  Who wants to be working a combination to a gun safe in the dark, because you can go to jail otherwise.  Not one of these laws will stop crime, victims shooting back does.  If you think RED FLAG sounds like a good idea, consider the political opponents of Russian policy that ended up institutionalized.  The opposition is already disarming your fellow citizens.  Veteran, let someone else pay your bills?  I go to the doctor, and Everytime there is a paper wanting to give me a representative.  They act like I am just supposed to sign and hand it back.  Red flag law will take in every one with anxiety, depression, or even a death in the family where Dr. writes a prescription.  Next the Journal of Psychiatric Medicine writes in a new diagnosis, and every GOD FEARING, gun owning, Trump supporter is mentally ill, you better already have your bullets bought, because your Dr. is no longer your friend, because everything about you is archived, and computerized.
I thought things might be different.  Just maybe, DT would be different.  He definitely is, with 289 good things to his credit, but war rages on, with calls for more, soldiers didn’t come home, Syria is still going, the border is still wide open, welfare for illegals still flows, veterans are still on the streets, and the standard of living is still falling.  The party on the left wants to offer free stuff, but free stuff will only get more expensive, taxing the middle class ever closer to lower class.
No politician addresses Chemtrails, Vaccine mandates are flowing through state legislatures, Roundup is waiting on spring, while the environment dies.  The dance for war in Venezuela had been going on for years, but starving kids eating from a dumpster once plays repeatedly.  We have such problems here.  The protests from some safe place are said to be in Venezuela, and the band plays on.  These people in office are representing someone, and it’s not us, unless we believe the talking heads on the news without question.  This game is getting old, old folks don’t believe everything on the news.  When all you hear is how bad Socialism is, look at these guys, and both sides agree something is strange and smells like a dead fish, we should all do the homework.  Political Atheists, yeah, I think I caught it too!!

Days of MADNESS!!!

 from mangledman:

While I told Bondo I hadn’t had any experiences that let me see Beelzebub himself, I have been in the presence of abject EVIL.  Well he had to bring up cheap trick.  Cheap trick was a brand new band, and kinda where part of this story was taking root.  Cheap trick hadn’t made it to Indiana, but a friend and I needed to swap cars with his sister in Melbourne Florida.  I think I was led to believe that we were going to Florida to party with a couple hot chicks to find out when I got there his  sister was a devout lesbian these days, and quite jealous when her partner threatened to climb in my bed in the night.  We being white good looking heterosexuals, clubbing with them probably would have not gone over well.  Suddenly awkward already a serious beerdrinker, I drank 10 cases of beer in 9 days pretty much by myself.  Less than 2 weeks later, I would be pulling out of a coma, having been paralyzed in both arms and one leg.  Well being in chronic pain back in those days, the doctors knowing the pain I was in would only prescribe anything for a couple of months.  So here I am only 20 years old, trying to get back up on my feet to be a productive member of society, and the only tools at my disposal are alcohol, weed, and whatever I can beg out of the Doctor for very short intervals.

Well, after several years I am working doing odd jobs, because money is what helps me keep up a destructive lifestyle where I drink, manage to stay on my feet, get paid, and do it again.

It is a serious blizzard going on, I have a temporary licence, that lets me go to work.  Today I get to go to the license back, and I walk right straight across the street to the bar and sit down and order a quart of beer and drink it from a small glass in about 15 minutes.  So I order another one.  I have been sitting there about 50 minutes, and barely had a little glass left, and I left a tiny bit in the bottle.  A guy asks me which direction I am going, so I told him, but I had to run back to the house to get something, and it was about ten extra miles out of the way, and I would take him to Illinois (where I was headed) and be on our way. It is extremely cold the road has about 2 inches of packed snow on it with 2 ft. Piled along the sides, and no one in sight.  I am driving a big old Ford luxury sedan with great tires, so 50 did not seem unreasonable having the road to myself.  I came up a grade and as I get a little closer, a pickup is turning, he is about 400 yards ahead, and he is inching left, and getting ready to turn left in the oncoming lane.  I am now about being 200 yards and closing on a snow packed road, and he is in the other lane, and slides past his turn!!   I am still trying to slow down crowding the snowbank on the right, and getting over as far as possible as he inched past center and I still hasn’t seen me.  I clipped about 6 inches of his bumper, went through the snowbank.  Well the trooper shows up, I am only about a mile from home, and headed to jail for a breathalyzer.  My passenger didn’t seem hurt at all until the cop got there.  The time it took for the trooper to be done with the accident, my alcohol level is rising, and I was barely over the legal limit when I got tested.  Noon until the next morning the Sheriff that lets me out to go to court tells me, he had been looking for my passenger all morning.  The officer said  “he had stabbed some people, stole their cars, and raped somebody, he could have raped YOU”!!  I felt my knees buckle.  I get to court to find the first of January the second DUI carries maximum of class D felony, and I can be looking at 1-4 years in PRISON!!  Severely shaken up I decided that drunkenness wasn’t helping the pain any, and Jail, or by Prison was not a place I wanted to be, especially with limited abilities.  The possibilities were endless.  If I had made it to the house about a mile away, I could have been stabbed, possibly repeatedly, and the GOOD LORD had gotten my attention before, but this time REALLY shook me to the core.  I decided I was sick and tired of being sick and tired, and I was going to change things, and the journey began.
A quick recap, lost my license, the day I get it back, I lose it again.  I picked up up a stranger who probably had Ill intentions of leaving me at home dead on the floor (being nice probably meant very little to such a person) and figured very the continuous drowning in alcohol was not making life fun, or less complicated.

Trust

 from mangledman:

The firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, durability, or strength of something or someone.
Who or what can we as people trust these days??  Are prospects getting thinner these days?  I learned awhile back I can’t even trust myself in some areas or things.  I think I mentioned before somewhere that if it has a throttle,  wheels, and dirt, or a wheelie, or getting a little air is involved, NO, I don’t trust ME at all!!  One would think that at my age, shouldn’t I know better?  Well, is it an adrenaline addiction?  Chock full-o-stupid, or still just a KID at heart.  Well I am rolling up on 60, and I still ain’t figgered it out.  (I do catch myself singng “I won’t grow up, I won’t grow up)  Seriously folks, HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!  DT just waffled  again, he said he wasn’t gonna sign another bill full of CRAP, but he just did.  I have made this analogy a couple times this week.  If we take away the gingerbread cottage, we shouldn’t need a wall after that.  That darned bill took away a whole bunch of  ICE power, if an anchor baby lives there the whole house is immune, and just grab any kid and head for the border, and you’re in like FLINT.  This junk is just for starters, on the thousand pages delivered at the last minute.  It got around 66% approval house and Senate.  THESE PEOPLE DO NOT WORK FOR US!!!  HUNG OUT TO DRY!!  FLAPPIN IN THE BREEZE!!  IS THIS NUTS???  Is it any wonder the AMERICAN people are feeling quite sore?  I am getting so sick of Mueller, McCabe, Comey, Abrams,Hillary, Obama, Pence, Trump, and the whole lot of them.  Topping off the TREASON, we have the antics of the junior socialist, green, godless morons section.  Disgusted yet??  Nobody goes to prison in that crowd.  BENGHAZI will see statute of limitations this year unless it’s murder!  Whatever happened to lock her up??  We tried to fill those places with Republicans, now they are going to stab us in the back too, when it comes to CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS!!  the revolution is about to start.  If you thought about it a little, maybe it dawned on you that the Pope kissing the Imam and uniting two religions, did a lightbulb go off that these two are our favorite imports.  Both these groups don’t care much for BIBLE believing Christians.  Once we manage to get our soldiers busy, they won’t know to get on a plane to save mom,pop, baseball and apple pie!!  I don’t know about you all, but that clock seems closer and closer to midnight!
The Question, WHO do YOU TRUST??  In this old man’s humble opinion, we best be finding out!  We need to start making alliances.  Friends, neighbors, like-minded people, Church, whoever.  Join a dadgum Militia, if I want to have a militia on hand around here, I will have to start one myself, at my AGE.  Things are shaking up fast enough that having like minded people close is going to be necessary.  These are things we need to be discussing.  Watch both sides of the story on this one.  The joker the US picked the Venezuelan people did not vote for.  This place is a jungle, and they have 1.5 mil. Militia, I haven’t seen the figure on the army yet.

Faith!

 from mangledman:

I am once again falling behind in life.  We get up each day thinking life is going to carry on like yesterday with zero glitches and no shortfalls just like before.  People manage to travel through life thinking “I got this”!!  Nooo problems.  I’m a good great and wonderful person everything is sunshine and roses.  Then IT happens.  The parade gets rained on.  Tragedy happens in one form or another.  Some people are so wrapped up in the delusion of self, that it only takes ONE small bump in the road to go into crisis mode.  If you think this sounds extreme, think about the reaction over a presidential election.  We are all just one heartbeat away from the next life.  A lot of people just keep moving plugging along, and when this life is over its like”oh I’ve been a good person GOD will understand”,  If HE don’t then I didn’t like HIM anyway.  Our world has been filling up with these kinds of people while we slept.  A GOD of justice and judgement is what everyone wants and seeks, but they put all the FAITH of knowing who GOD is from a Human point of view.  The GOD that used to work for Mom n Dad, and Gma and Gpa, and the people that started this country is outdated.  The TRUTH, and FAITH in it always coming to LIGHT, being exposed, and bringing JUSTICE, is an outdated concept.  I don’t know about everybody else, but I am the slow learner type.  I believe in GOD, the TRUTH, JUSTICE, and JUDGEMENT.  I have been on this path since I was little, but, I was living a deluded life, thinking I’m tough, I got this.  One day, I woke up and that entire world was shredded, destroyed, and I looked up and told everybody GOD’S got this, and picked myself up and kept moving forward MY WAY.  My ways were diminishing.  I look back, and the creature doesn’t much exist that I used to be.  I have no clue how I ever made it this far, but here I am.  I have been living from one apocalypse to the next, and my strength doesn’t even seem to come from me.   Faith is what keeps us going.  Faith that GOD has got this no matter what.  Justice will come, in this life or the next.  This is what keeps us from meting it out ourselves.  This world is going to face what it has earned.  Faith is what keeps us waiting for the TRUTH to finally come to light for all to see, so
that those that are blind might finally see.  I, myself have a hard time grasping what a life without TRUTH, and things ABSOLUTE could possibly be like.  Having been a student of the truth for a long time.   ABSOLUTE, and TRUTH hasn’t let me down.  JESUS being TRUTH, never changes, and remain after I am gone.  Having FAITH that Justice will see the light of day has me waking up day after day, certain of absolutely nothing but these simple facts.  I don’t know if the roof will be over my head, if food will be available, if I will even be able to stand up, or even crawl.  We have no clue as to who will be alive, or if our world might end in a flash.  We all wake up each day with some measure of faith.  We have hope that things will continue.  I have that FAITH that when I close my eyes for the last time here, I am going to wake up on the other side.  It  is Faith that leads me on, and FAITH that will lead me home.  I know I still can’t live up to my own standards let alone someone that can say “LET THERE BE LIGHT” and it is up there until he says otherwise.  The awesomeness and power is wild, let alone FOREVER.  There is so much about this life and world we aren’t meant to understand.

Once most of us figure out that the TRUTH is  the way to go and that a CREATOR can speak a world into existence, and breathe a soul into dust to create any dadgum thing he wants. We start to appreciate that FREE WILL in a world full of good and bad choices, we can escape the consequences by FAITH that HE created just such an escape.  In a world full of sinners, some of us were experts.  I guess that is why human nature is not surprising to some of us.  Some of us have been practicing how not to be experts for a good while now.  I heard somewhere some guy says:  “I’m so wholesome I make ME wanna puke”.  I feel like this some days.  Faith is what keeps me out of a lot of trouble.  Faith in the fact that the truth sets us free, and keeps us free.  Especially from the consequences of disobedience  of straying from what I know to be true.  I have weaknesses, give me wheels and a throttle, temptation is always there.  Getting older,  we figure a lot of mistakes require some healing processes.  We also have FAITH in the fact there might be an unforseen bump in the road.  Beware the road you walk upon.  Some old grayfaced ex hippie might come along and ask you if you know the TRUTH, or do you have FAITH,  will you already know it, or want to know more?

TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!!

War??

 from mangledman:

Here it comes folks!!  I have been hoping to find something to say, a lighter note.  Gloom and doom is getting old, and it is getting to the point the Madness is almost never ending.  Bizarre, deplorable, despicable, and disgusting is getting beyond comprehension.  This idiotic junk has been coming at us so fast and picking up speed, we don’t know which way to turn!!  Beware the hidden hand.  We just got hit with a rush of gun control law, DT made the statement “Take the guns, then due process”!!  Within two week a flood of laws are popping up all across the land with mayor’s and governors trying to see who can commit TREASON the fastest.  Throw in a week or more of bashing MAGA HAT wearing pro life white religious kids, just in time for the babykillers to traumatize and condition the horrified populace.  DUDE!!  WHAT A MONTH!!  Oh didn’t you hear about the ships headed to South America in time to tell you some random guy named Juan decided he gets run Venezuela??  Oh, yeah the duly elected representative is supposed to start his Presidency, and the warmongers told Juan he can be President and convince the voting Venezuelans they didn’t really vote, Random guy named Juan says so!!  YOU BLEEBAT!!  We can go into the performances of the AMERICAN ACTORS, I want y’all to pay real close attention folks, WE ARE GOING TO WAR!!!  This very exact same thing happened in Syria. Remember that clip where “o” put on the performance of how mad he was because Putin told him he wasn’t gonna do spit in Syria???  Well it happened again in January, Putin told Trump to leave Venezuela alone, China said it too this time!!  So the next time you catch the news it is all systems GO!!  You wanna talk bizarre CNN actually agrees with TRUMP!!!!  This enough to make make JOHN McCAIN sit up in his grave salute and make the peace sign!!  Bolton is giving long press releases saying Maduro BAAAD!!  Then we have Pence on TV saying the same, and High impact Flix showed his news clips, and for someone that is supposed to be such a fine upstanding Christian, picnnochio’s nose would be shorter!!  Remember little GW going to church??  All part of the act.  Being from Indiana, Pence did us no favors.  I couldn’t stand Evan Bayh, despised, loathed entirely, but I was more glad to see Pence go!  When DT PICKED him for VP I knew we were in for it.  With what I’ve learned,  watch when He goes on about Venezuela, now watch the solemnity, the conviction, and imagine he is LYING through his teeth. (He is)  This is worth an Oscar, and two Academy Awards!!  I have only covered a bit of JANUARY, but these little distractions are getting us ready for the big one.  Venezuelans are not going for this.  Check out HIGHIMPACTFLIX and FLORIDA MAQUIS on YouTube.  FM has been watching this he said two years.  Remember, after Putin told little o to stay away from Syria, he did but Saudi Arabia was there in a month on our behalf.  PLEASE, DEAR PEOPLE!!  Watch this like a hawk they just sent by 5000 soldiers somewhere, and Russia sent 400 heavily armed MERCENARIES to help Maduro about two weeks ago.  Do we want to go to war??
Our future is at stake.  If you think I have finally lost it, terrific!!  Hopefully you will seek the information that proves it, or you might see what I see and tell people.  I sincerely hope I am wrong, but if you see what I see coming, maybe we can all be united.  Go check out Florida Maquis!  This is one of those cats that won’t stay in the bag forever.

Disgust!

 from mangledman:

I have been truly saddened while searching for something to write about this week.  Yes I am running late.  The state of our country, and the attitude is appalling.  While on the one hand we have supporters of wall funding standing behind DT while they keep working without paychecks, feeling national and neighborhood security is at stake.  DT caves in and the opposition are rejoicing like the bullies that just stole your lunch.  Is this way past pathetic??
Blame it on BONDO!!  Yep, it had to be him!  He is the one!  He brought up the term “POLITICAL ATHIEST”  It has got to be somebody’s fault, because I am sure I have caught it too!  Do you think it is because I read too much?  Keeping track of current world events shouldn’t be this depressing, but with EVIL on the winning team, IT IS!!   We are in a world of  hurt children, they are working to steal our rights, import enemies, stealing our hard earned money just to enslave us, and voting only ever makes it worse.  A revolt seems to be in the mix, and there is no pause button on the remote.  There are States demanding you give up your tools of self protection, or tell them where they are at.  New York just decided that babies can be killed, as long as they are still inside.  It is now being exposed that most vaccines contain cells and DNA from these deceased children.  I guess the word cannibalism never occur to some.  Measles vaccines kill 63X more people than measles.  Planned Parenthood has less Customers here in the good ole USA, but hey they only profited $224,000,000 last year, even after DT forgot to stop funding their worldwide operations.  It’s an AMERICAN thing!  (pauses to hurl).
If you are paying attention Venezuela is going to be our next Syria.  Just like Syria Mr. Putin has just said “USA has no business in Venezuela” while the CIA is making paid dissidents prosper in a land of starving people.  Florida Maquis on you tube is watching this closely, and RT is showing the crap being spewed from DC.  Watching YouTube it ran to the next video, and it was from VOX I don’t know if I have even heard of VOX, but their take on Venezuela was right out of a DC manual.  The comment section was filled with trolls refuting any and every talking point  that didn’t go along with US intervention.   I read a headline that very said “RUSSIA JUST SENT 400 ARMED MERCENARIES TO VENEZUELA” and I remembered Florida Maquis video showing shipping movements of Ships off Venezuela.  The one I am in the middle of, he was saying the resources belong to the republic according their CONSTITUTION.  Somebody should tell Conoco.  He has been pretty Sharp so far.  The DT regime is going to put us right in the middle of this.
I watched a video from an INDIANA Sheriff showing how fast someone could get off 30 shots with one clip, or three.  There was a difference of 5 seconds with their unskilled female shooter.  If you had to worry about a family member at home in fear for their life, would you want your wife kids or grandma have to worry about reloading?  No?  When my hands get older, more arthritic, and shaky, do I want to think about reloading.  When that but guy grabbed his AR, and headed next door to the church, did he have to take 5 magazines and a box of ammo?  Letting the government regulate your rights is insanity isn’t it?

CBD

 from mangledman:

What would you give to feel normal, stable, grounded, less pain, less anxiety.  This stuff hasn’t been legal in my state very long.  I tried it, it works but is still too expensive to reach the therapeutic levels to maintain my particular needs.  It improved and decreased a little pain but tapered as dosages should have been increased.
Dear people, I rarely talk about this anymore, but the medicinal benefits of marijuana are MAGNIFICENT!!  It will be 40 years ago this year, I messed myself up GOOD!!  I have nerve damage, I have spasticity, I have degeneration starting in my hip and my ankle, and I am in HUGE Amounts of Pain.  It was summertime, so probably a year after the accident, and I am riding in the back of the car, and I have no idea how long I have been praying for this ride to end before I start to give in to the SCREAM!!  Well the ride finally ended, and I walked the 1/8th mile home limping extreme dragging my left foot, and it probably took me 20 minutes or more.  I sat down, smoked 3 hits, hit the bench press and ran back across a freshly disked field barefoot.  How long does it take to run 250-300 yards?  It was two different worlds in less than a half hour.   I told my parents, they told me I had lost my mind.  A farmer needed some one to sit on a tractor and so that is where a paralyzed kid gets his first job back to work, and that kept me supplied, and the only direction to go was up.  The mission was on, smoke weed lift weights, and get better.  I took the piano lessons back up having learned to play a little bit years earlier to work on finger dexterity.  I got kinda good.  Well about a dozen years later I am working as a union hod carrier and get my foot caught under a mortar tub, and the doctor will not release me to go back to work because my ankle joints are so deteriorated they want to know if I were an intravenous drug user or could I be a late stage alcoholic, and I left alcohol alone 6 years earlier.  The orthopedist says no clue, but says I know a neurologist that would love to see you.  Away I went.  Neurologist takes one look at me and said “You’re a mess”!! says the steroid shots to bring me out of the coma is where degenerative joint disease came from.  Started me on narcotic pain medication and sent me back to work.  The ankle joint being shot we tried to clean it up, but fusion became necessary.  Well me and the weed drifted apart as I kept a very low profile.   The down time after fusion, and no longer indulging my exercise program, I went down fast.  By not pushing my marijuana consumption back up to therapeutic levels, I have managed to get a lot worse, and having been on a run with the narcotics for 22 1/2 years, I still feel that if I could be get my marijuana consumption back up to a reasonable therapeutic type level, I might be able to get ahead of this once again. Having spent a bit lot of time smoking and lifting weights, Everytime i would smoke being so far out of whack there would be cramp, an uncomfortable muscle group and the thought would come that I need this exercise or that one and after doing them it went away for awhile.  It has been a perfect cure for a headache every time.  I have never seen it fail.

This a very condensed version.  I believe in the medicinal benefits of this plant.  I do not care for the initial rush immediately after smoking it.  I found after eating a brownie once I felt great for 3 days.  I have read people have cured late stage cancer using this product.  I have never said i quit, or I don’t do it anymore, but lately I haven’t done it for a long time.  Dealing with Doctors and drug screens it isn’t worth the hassle.  Well, in pain management in a non medicinal state they will  toss you right out on the street.  I just came off almost 5 years taking aspirin.  I am still quite certain that if I could manage affording a cannabis regimen, I might manage to get back up on my feet once again.

I tapered off back about the time medical marijuana came on the scene.  There is some that will make you a couch potato, but others with a different balance of CBD and THC, that gives you energy to get up and move around instead of melting you into the couch.  Yes, I dream of going to a state where I could spend enough time to find a couple compatible strains to start on a regimen that will lessen my problems.

Lions, Tigers and Bears!

Which one will it be.  Someone said that if I see conspiracy in more than 10% of things I might need medication.  A conspiracy is more than one individual conspiring to do something.  It is usually EVIL, but not I don’t know if it has to be.  With a year like last year to look at, a lot of people were performing all kinds of evil acts all over the place, incessantly  all year long.  One bad thing after another.  When the facts come out, somebody is playing with the money.  The head of the Fed. Reserve stated opposite opposite of what he is doing now to prevent recession.  We have a big fight over a wall, against common sense!  A Paradise fire displacing 50,000, and less than 100 dead, but 1000s are unaccounted for.  FEMA barges moving around.  Still only one lone gunman since the first hours of the Attack on concertgoers at multiple locations, many dead witnesses.  There was video of a uniformed guy that looked like he drew a pistol, and went into a shooting stance, but I couldn’t really see a gun or a flash.  We have a government shutdown moving from last year to this year, and this one has multiple players too!  We have wars, we have troop movements, we have drills, and ships and exercises going on in South America too, and no coverage except for YouTubers. (Florida Maquis) There is way too much bizarre business going on for us to not find Evil lurking in the background.

William Casey CIA (Director I think) Said “when everything the American people believe is false, our disinformation program will be complete.
Donald Trump has made several very ominous statements that leads me to think he is part of the swamp.  Could he be part of a disinformation conspiracy??  Maybe??  We have Kennedy and Trump exposing vaccine facts, while more laws are whittling away more rights.  There was a supposed assassination attempt last week.  I still can’t forget video about the Simpson’s cartoon having Trump getting elected about a decade ago.  They showed Trump in a casket and several identical clips of events.  There is an Evil conspiratorial group that shows what they are up to in advance.  But hey it was just a cartoon.

We have a shocking 2018, and 19 is starting off like a rocket.  What will be the first FALSE FLAG?  The truth will be hid, or hit and miss limited hangout edition.  Myself, I am getting too old for this.  I have almost new grandkids, and another on the way.  I Cringe at the thought of children in this mess that is coming.  I saw several little kids at the pediatrician’s office the other day,. They were behaved, but their eyes looked quite hollow.  There were twins in a wagon, and they both looked like they could have had Downs syndrome, but the whole group of four looked like they had hollow eyes.  We refused to vaccinate our granddaughter, and she has very bright inquisitive ornery eyes that beam and sparkle.  I see a lot of children that, it tears me up that they act like something is missing.  There is no conspiracy here either.  Guys like BILL GATES can own a bioweapons lab, be in the vaccine manufacturing business, and claim on live TV that vaccine agendas will be used to cure overpopulation.  Why someone like this escapes justice is insane.  Why anyone could hear his statement and not look into vaccine injury is beyond my comprehension!!  So what do you think will be first??  Lions, Tigers, or Bears?!
