On July 31, the Army officially announced that a new camouflage pattern, known internally as Scorpion W2, will be named the Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP). Not only will this new pattern replace MultiCam, which currently acts as the OCP, but also it will replace Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP) as the official ACU pattern.

The original Scorpion pattern was developed by Crye Precision as part of the Objective Force Warrior program more than a decade ago. The Scorpion W2 variant was modified from the initial pattern by Army Natick Labs. Similar in design to MultiCam, the chosen pattern could be used in the field by the summer of 2015.

After a four-year intensive camouflage research and testing process, this selection couldn’t have been more anticipated. For more than a decade, the Army has relied on the widely unpopular UCP as the official standard-issue pattern.

FK – It’s incredible that it takes so much time and money to do such a simple thing. Not it’s not, it’s the government.

The old woodland cammo was fine for temperate and tropical climates but too green and dark for winter in the Eastern Woodlands. The Military really only needs 4 patterns: summer woodland, winter woodland, desert and snow. Multicam works much better as an all around but it’s still a little too green for winter for my taste.

Meanwhile the Marines focus on other things:

Speaking in Sacramento on his second day in California, Peña Nieto said that California has allowed Mexican migrants to have a chance to prosper, and he hoped California is sending “a clear message to the United States and the rest of the world” about the importance of diversity and embracing “migrants.” He also, as he did on Monday in Los Angeles, said Mexico supports “migration reform”–or comprehensive amnesty legislation–because it is just for illegal immigrants, especially those from Mexico.

On Monday, Peña Nieto called for “justice” for illegal immigrants, scolded governors who did not believe in more open borders, and said America was “the other Mexico.”

Brown said that all illegal immigrants from Mexico “are welcome in California.” As Breitbart News has noted, though Peña Nieto thanked California for all it has done for Mexicans, especially migrants, the Latino Caucus wants even more. For instance, even though the University of California has accepted a record number of Hispanics, the Latino Caucus had said bilingual education and bringing back formal affirmative action policies will be top legislative priorities going forward.

FK – Commiefornia will have to be re-conquered.

Johnson is the Obama loyalist who, weeks after getting the nod, made it clear to the United Conference of Mayors that, in his opinion, “the approximately 11 million people who are in the country illegally have ‘earned the right to be citizens,’” meaning when that happens, the ranks of Democrat voters will swell, allowing more anti-gun politicians to be elected and more anti-gun judges to be appointed. The 5 to 4 Supreme Court majority that ruled in Heller and McDonald will become a thing of the past. As far as anti-gun laws being passed and upheld, we ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

Coburn’s belly-aching to the press belies a culpability he shares, along with some other prominent names gun owners have been encouraged to support.

Topping the list for Johnson’s “Aye” votes was Lamar Alexander, A-rated by NRA, and confident he could vote for confirmation without any worries that would jeopardize his Association endorsement. Next giving Johnson her approval was Kelly Ayotte, someone NRA ran ads for. Also giving a thumbs ups were NRA A-raters John Barrasso, Roy Blunt, Richard Burr, Saxby Chambliss, the aforementioned Coburn, Thad Cochran, Bob Corker, Mike Enzi, Jeff Flake, Orrin Hatch, Dean Heller, John Isakson, Mike Johanns, Ron Johnson, Jerry Moran, Lisa Murkowski, Pat Roberts, John Thune, Patrick Toomey, and Roger Wicker.

FK – The No Rights that aren’t Allowed group might as well be working for the opposition… Maybe they are.

FK – Haven’t verified these numbers but one wonders how many understand the real histories behind these parties, where the ‘yellow dog democrats‘ came from and that the Republicans were the original party of big government?

Now thanks to the commie mainstream newswhores they refer to ‘republican’ states as ‘red’ and democrat states as ‘blue.’ How ironic, yet how true. The lies change but the results remain the same.

Yet Hannan is in the minority — and not just among high-profile figures. While a recent BBC poll showed that 95 percent of Britons believe multiculturalism is a failure, few will speak up without anonymity’s protection. Under UK “hate speech” laws, citizens can be charged with a “racial offense” for criticizing Islam and may suffer punishment. As a result, reports Roger Scruton at Forbes, it doesn’t matter that white girls were specifically targeted by Muslim perpetrators in Rotherham who do not treat them “with the respect that they treat girls from their own community” and who see “English society not as the community to which they belong, but as a sexual hunting ground.”

“Let slip the mere hint that Pakistani Muslims are more likely than indigenous Englishmen to commit sexual crimes and you will be branded as a racist and an Islamophobe, to be ostracised in the workplace and put henceforth under observation,” writes Scruton. In fact, when one father went to the police demanding justice for his abused daughter, the writer tells us, he was “arrested for obstruction and charged with wasting police time.”

FK – Who wrote and voted for these ‘laws?” Ragheads elected to the Brit parliment? No. “Liberal”(commie) trash just like the trash in our own governments. Now who and where are our real blood enemies? Hint: They ain’t hiding in a cave on the other side of the world.

FK – And without an extensive and thorough “Liberal”(commie) trash season it will happen here.

He has lots of links to stories on this.

How New York’s New Gun Control Law Is Working Out (Hint: Not Great)

FK – How do they always manage to skirt around the big issue: Why the authoritarian trash wants us disarmed – so we can’t kill them when enough finally wake up to the necessity of doing so?

Let’s see this ‘law’ passed in every state and on the federal level:

Any elected public servant who votes for a law without reading it is immediately arrested, tried for treason and executed.

And see every wanna-be elected public servant make this promise:

“If elected, I will not vote for any law I haven’t read and will vote against any law I haven’t been given time to read.”

Let’s not hold our breath. We’ll be breathing hard on many occasions before this happens, in the process of doing what will be required.

The Obama administration has released a huge majority of illegal immigrant children who poured over the U.S.-Mexico border earlier this year into dozens of tony counties without notifying the public, while deporting just 280, according to new reports.

The Health and Human Services Department released a list of 126 counties 29,890 of the kids were placed into, sometimes with their parents who are also in the United States illegally.

Those counties include some of the most exclusive in the nation, including the Washington suburbs of Fairfax and Loudoun in Virginia and Howard and Montgomery in Maryland. Fairfax received 1,023.

FK – What they do matters, not what they say. And it’s ‘dissuade.’

FK – Time for these neighborhoods to organize their own community militias.

FK – Maybe some of the Canucks are smart enough to realize if this country goes down so does theirs.

We recently noted that ostensibly “conservative” David Frum blames the militarization of police on widespread gun ownership by private citizens (or by “the policed”–Frum’s term for theoretically free citizens). This is becoming a popular theme of late, to the joy, no doubt, of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence.

Writing for the New Republic, Alec MacGillis has jumped enthusiastically aboard that bandwagon, with his “Libertarians Who Oppose a Militarized Police Should Support Gun Control—But They Don’t, of Course.”

MacGillis’ explanation as to why libertarians should support the violation of the right to the means of defending one’s liberty is a bit convoluted. Basically, the fact that most Americans can own firearms–including guns well suited for rather “unsportsmanlike” activities like self-defense and resisting tyranny–makes cops “on edge” (MacGillis’ term) . . . and thus apparently justifies teargassing and arresting journalists, aiming sniper rifles at citizens with their hands up, and screaming obscenities at them:(click on link above)

FK – We the People are their employers, they are supposed to fear us.

FK – The sheeple need to learn how to pay attention and how to help themselves and not wait on some fairytale to come save them.
