U.S. Soldiers Eliminate Three Taliban Fighters During Ambush

FK – Combat isn’t sunday school. Finally they get some air support. Where were their grenade launchers? Some explanation was posted under the vid:

This patrol was a relief in place and I was on point leading the new guys in for the RIP. We hadn’t taken much contact in this area, and it was generally considered a “safe” zone in Logar Province.

We patrolled the area frequently, and the locals would regularly thank us for pushing the Taliban away from their village so they could live their daily lives without constant threat.

The Taliban that we came across during this patrol were actually setting up to shoot down our new surveillance balloon that was launched in the area. The balloon caught the entire fight on camera from above, which confirmed that we killed 3 Taliban fighters during this engagement.

I saw the first guy shoulder his RPG, take a knee, and point it directly at me from about 15 meters away. I’m not sure if it was luck, but I shot first and hit him twice. The rest of the team engaged immediately after.

At the end of the day there were no friendly casualties, and we had eliminated 3 Taliban fighters.

I wanted to share the video with the world because I was sick of hearing all the ignorant things said about what we are doing over there. People need to understand what it’s like on the ground for the troops on the front line, and see what we have to deal with on a daily basis without some political spin on the story.

Canadian feds overhaul gun laws with new ‘common sense’ firearms act

The act would limit the powers of provincial chief firearms officers, make all firearm licences possession-and-acquisition (PAL) licences, make it easier for legal gun owners to transport restricted firearms around their home province, provide a grace period to renew expired gun licenses, make the gun safety course mandatory for new shooters, and crack down further on domestic abusers owning guns.

“These measures would streamline licensing and eliminate needless red tape for law-abiding gun owners,” Blaney said. “Those who have shown a pattern of violent behaviour should not be able to possess firearms. These are the people we should focus our gun control efforts on.”

In 2012, the Tories scrapped the controversial long gun registry.

FK – It’s a right not a privilege.

If the sheeple had any ‘common sense’ they’d have long ago built the militia force necessary to hunt and eradicate the “Liberal”(commie) trash who want to disarm us all so we can’t kill them.

That’s what it’s about. That’s all it’s about.

Oklahoma City bombing: Claims of second accomplice and FBI intimidation

The core of the issue is that Trentadue claims the FBI has surveillance video revealing McVeigh carrying out the Oklahoma City bombing with an accomplice. The FBI adamantly denies that such video exists, and the government has insisted repeatedly that McVeigh acted alone in the event that killed 168 people.

The witness involved in this whole situation, John Matthews, was scheduled to testify regarding this alleged video in July, but withdrew at the last minute. Trentadue – as well as a freelance journalist named Roger Charles – stated that when he spoke with Matthews about his absence, the former agent told them the FBI threatened him.

“He was told he should take a vacation and that if he did testify he should suffer from a case of the ‘I don’t remembers,’” Trentadue told the judge back in July, as quoted by local Fox 13 News.

More Than 1/3 of Americans in Households Receiving Federal Welfare

The Census Bureau numbers showed 82.7 million people living in households where people were on Medicaid, while 51.5 million were in homes receiving food stamps. Another 22.5 million were in households receiving aid under the Women, Infants and Children program and 20.4 million were living in homes with one or more residents receiving Supplemental Security Income. Public housing or housing subsidies provided shelter for 13.3 million residents and 5.4 million received Temporary Assistance to Needy Families.

To illustrate the extent of America’s growing dependency on Washington’s taxpayer-supported largesse, Jeffrey noted that the 150 million Americans receiving some form of federal assistance, not counting veterans benefits, outnumbered the entire population of Russia (142.5 million). The combined population of the United Kingdom (63. 7 million) and the Ukraine (44.3 million) is less than the 109.6 million Americans benefiting from means-tested federal welfare programs at the end of 2012. That 35.4 percent of the U.S. population also outnumbers the 103 million full-time year-round workers in the United States. There is some overlap, however, as some full-time workers at low-paying jobs are also eligible for food stamps, Medicaid, etc. But that raises the question of why we have so many underemployed and working poor in America.

Politicians on the Left and Right lament the growth of a permanent underclass and the decades-long decline in real wages, adjusted to reflect inflation, for middle class Americans. Yet government policies have for decades been driving away the jobs that once fueled the mighty engines of the U.S. economy and enabled working Americans to more than adequately support themselves and their families. The federal corporate tax rate is the world’s highest at 35 percent, with states adding levies up to 12 percent. That provides an obvious incentive for companies to move jobs and production to nations with lower corporate tax rates, including Third World countries that offer cheap labor as well. “Free trade” agreements make it easier for multinational corporations to produce goods in countries where the cost of labor is low and sell them in the United States where demand and purchasing power is high.

Army quits tests after competing rifle outperforms M4A1 carbine

Exactly how the eight challengers — and the M4 — performed in a shootout to replace the M4, a soldier’s most important personal defense, has been shrouded in secrecy.

But an “official use only report” by the Center for Naval Analyses shows that one of the eight unidentified weapons outperformed the M4 on reliability and on the number of rounds fired before the most common type of failures, or stoppages, occurred, according to data obtained by The Washington Times.

The Army did not respond to The Times. At the time, the Army explained the cancellation by saying none of the eight showed a huge improvement over the M4. In the past, the Army, with an inventory of 500,000 M4s, has defended the carbine as reliable, accurate and popular among the large majority of soldiers. It has been upgraded throughout the war on terror to improve its magazine, barrel and sights.

FK – Politics and pride and money and officers’ careers are more important than the lives of the pawns.

Huey P. Newton Gun Club Pushes #BlackOpenCarry to Protest Police Violence

FK – Who was Huey P. Newton?

Haven’t used this in a while but it’s still very appropriate:

Even if ‘gun control’ could be proven to lower crime it would still be evil.

The Second Amendment, as the rest of the Bill of Rights, is an
acknowledgement of our natural born rights, not a granting. The entire
Bill of Rights is about keeping the governments in their place. The
Second Amendment is about the common person’s right to own weapons of
war so that we can keep the governments in their place by keeping the
‘monopoly on force’ in the hands of the people where it belongs, as in
‘We the people.’ Remember that? It will not be infringed any further and
the ‘gun laws’ in existence will be repealed. End of discussion.

Time to repeal all of the ‘gun laws’ including GCA ‘68 and the NFA;
Shut down the evil BATF Nazis and try them for treason, and murder where
appropriate and distribute their retirement funds among their victims;
Then enforce the Bill of Rights on places such as Commiefornia and New
Yawk and Chigawgo and if necessary bring the troops home and have them
restore Liberty here and remove Amerika’s natural born traitors in the
process.

All ‘gun control’ is propaganda designed to condition the
sheeple to accept more control until the ultimate goal of complete civilian disarmament is achieved. Thus all ‘gun control’ is an act of war. Those who push ‘gun control’ should be arrested, tried for treason against Human Liberty and executed.
