I'm a big fan of " The Ace of Spades H.Q. Blog "... A bit pithy at times for " tender eyed " readers; but pretty much on target. I urge ya to read the first few paragraphs of " The Morning Report, 9.15.2020 by J.J. Steffington "... I think he is dead right for the most part... Please read to the " Above the Fold " section. We have devolved into a loose confederation of states. http://www.ace.mu.nu/ leroy, the radical isolationist...

I think everybody needs to be watchful and armed to the teeth. We have simply not seen anything like this here in the US in modern times. As to " Trouble near us "... i have asked myself and orhers the same question. My thinkin (... notice i said " thinking "... which is a combination of hope, analysis, prayer, n experience...), is that " Red States " will stay relatively calm due to the to the law n order influence of " Red State State Government policies ". Blue States will more likely burn due to the same effect. It is my thinkin that the over-arching " Federalism " of US gubt is dead or so weak, it will never be " authoritarian " again. You simply will not see the US military escort kids to de-segregated schools anymore, like i did as a young person. Things are simply too polarized. I do not think that the federal gubt is gonna meddle in any law enforcement (.. Nor lack there of...) in any state... period. It's simply too risky. We have become a loose confederation of " Red " and " Blue " states, where law n order is either provided at the local or state level, or by vigilantism, which i expect to break out in both " Blue " and " Troubled Red " locations (... You know where they are...)... Like others here; im concerned that we seem to be returning to " Dodge City "; but ive come to believe that is exactly where we are. Like others have opined, im somewhat concerned about the effect on the overall economy, and our personal finances as the banking and financial systems sort this division out. We are no longer the " United States "... The "rights without responsibilities crowd of the 60's" and " the children of lower estate " have murdered it; along with plenty of help from the insider political class, and the ultra wealthy plutocracy we have allowed to run wild here in the US. We are now " armed birds of a feather flocking together "... We have no sense of unity. Our concern for our brothers largely depends on where he or she lives, along with our personal ties to them... It is, indeed, very sad and very dangerous. Sigh... sad leroy, the militant isolationist...

It's been pretty quiet here a bit north of Knoxville. The further north ya get here, the calmer things get. The " Rustics " don't like BLM or " AnnyFannie"... They best stay home. leroy

Am waffling back n forth on red dot vs irons on a 300BO ... I tend to like the irons... 100% reliable, rugged, n my overall familiarity. Any observations/ recommendations as to type n brands would be appreciated... These sights are for possible " real " use, much like the old time lever guns were with the man hunters. Large two legged predator control. Thanks in advance. leroy -
Never expect the media to cover news that doesn't fit the narrative. They simply will not do it. There is no attempt at " fair and balanced ", there never was... The good news is that more people are noticing. Remember the God-Man's words : " There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed "... It's a universal truth with a capital " U " and a capital " T "... listenin n watchin leroy.

Just rejoined the discussion. Trebike makes an excellent point. I find myself toting my 938 plus 1 mag on me, plus a 1911 in my tote bag in the truck, maybe even a big 15 rounder glock; but i tend ta like the 1911 trigger. I aint sure its not time to add a riot gun or an AR for " bushwhack protection "... Im thinkin churches need ta move up to an AR of some flavor near at hand n out of sight. We are living in dangerous times. Sigh... leroy...

I used ta love ta fly fish... It's the only " real " fishing i think... I'm too old n wore down to do it now, but i would offer ya the same advice an old fishing buddy offered me 50 or so years ago: 1... Dont worry about how far to cast, just get the line out there. Ya will finally learn how to do it by practicing. Just get the bait out there. 2... If you can look into a pool and see a fish, he can look up abd see you. They are wily, so you need to " hide" from them as much as ya can... 3... Your bait needs to look natural and like its not attached to anything. Cast it and leave it alone. The big ones are smart, they know the difference. 4... This one is completely illegal lotsa places... Use live bait if ya can...HEHEHE... The lesson is that whatever fly ya use needs to look and act " real "... 5... To practice, there is nothin greater than catching bluegill on your fly fishing rig..! Its fantastic, and teaches ta lots about fly technique. 6... Pay attention to where ya wade n walk. Poison snakes like the water too. Have fun..! Its a great hobby, and the absolute pinnacle of the " fishing craft "...! Heres to great fishing adventures... " Lunker " leroy..

It seems appropriate to post this: "... .Musings upon the true meaning of the Fourth of July and it's relation to today's culture... I've noticed that several of my well meaning friends have made various pronouncements as to what " everybody should do " and some of em have passed out backhanded denigrations of those who dont see things their way... They have said they were " selfish, uninformed, ignorant ", etc... This country was founded on the proposition that all men are equal and that government draws its authority, not from kings, experts, well meaning tyrants, despots, mobs, bureaucrats, politicos, and, yes, even well intended individuals; but from the consent of the governed. I say to all ya'll, in the kindest manner possible, your opinion is just that, an opinion... You or I have no warrant to do anything other than to voice that opinion. The truth is that some folks may not see things the way you do... At the end of the day; "... You are responsible for you "... " ...I am responsible to me..."... No individual private citizen has the right to demand that his opinions be imposed on others... We can debate the merits of opinions, nothing more... Remember, there is, indeed, uniformity of thought in the tyrannical lands, as its dangerous not to parrot the " official propaganda line", truthful or not.... We have " The Arena of Ideas " and " Consent of the Governed " here... Lets keep it that way... That, Brothers and Sisters us what the Fourth of July is really about...." That is all... leroy

I'm one of em Brother... I intend to vote with my dollars and do business anywhere other than in Knox county... Anderson County is right over the ridge from me, and Blount County is just south...
