Raising boys or raising Men?
I think this Lady, (please note the capitalization of that) has an idea of why young men either become useless fops, or angry bitter rebellious teens. I will only excerpt a small section here.
"We live in a society of angry young men. You see them everywhere - slouching, defiant, rebellious. Is this just a natural "stage" of development, or are we creating these malcontents?
As our sons have gotten older, my husband and I have given these questions a lot of thought. We have witnessed many friends sons grow from being sweet, fun-loving ruddy little boys into being angry, rude, disrespectful "teenagers". We have watched godly parents lose their sons in fits of rebellion, leaving mangled remnants of families to stagger onward. Is there any hope for us? Will our sweet sons be fodder for an angry world?"
And I will direct you to her blog to read the rest. She makes a very insightful point about how mothers need to step aside at times in the raising of their male offspring. And her reasons for that thought.
Also I am adding her blog to the Emergency Preparedness/Survival links section on the right as well.

Two Teen girls killed near me
I have been keeping an eye on this story but I haven't posted anything until now. Just to note, this is about 15 miles from my house.
"PORTLAND — Two teen women were found shot in the head about 25 yards beneath a scenic overlook deck at Violet Andrews Park about 9 a.m. Saturday by a couple visiting the park, police said.
Mollie Judith Olgin, 19, raised in Ingleside and living in Flour Bluff, was dead, said Police Chief Randy Wright. Olgin’s vehicle was found near the crime scene, he said."
That was the first story about this heinous crime.
Then we find out some more information.
"PORTLAND — There is no evidence that the shooting of two teens last weekend had anything to do with their romantic relationship, Portland Police Chief Randy Wright said Tuesday.
News organizations have brought nationwide attention to the shooting of two women at a Portland park late Friday, emphasizing their relationship. Many have questioned if the teens were shot as a hate crime."
Now we have the automatic assumption by some that this is a hate crime based upon the sexual orientation of the victims.
So of course we then get various special interest organizations involved.
"PORTLAND — Organizations from California to Washington D.C. planned vigils in the memory of two teenagers found shot in a Portland park.
A call to honor the girls, one who survived and the other who died, went out on Facebook earlier this week.
On Monday, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender civil rights activist and founder of the AIDS Memorial Quilt, Cleve Jones, posted a plea for the nation to get involved by hosting vigils."
Nationwide candle light vigils...... what about other crime victims?
"ARANSAS PASS — Hours after a fisherman discovered the body of a young girl Thursday, authorities identified her as a 16-year-old missing since Monday.
Jenna Hernandez, 16, of Aransas Pass was found Thursday about 9 a.m. by a fisherman visiting from San Antonio, police said."
Where is the candle light vigil for her? This happened only 6 miles from my house. Where is all the outrage for her? Where is all the support for her family? Where is the manufactured outrage for the the rest of the ordinary people who are murdered? Ohhh, I see they aren't special enough, unless they belong to a select group of people. What hypocrisy. There should be outrage for anyone who is murdered. However for certain groups, it doesn't fit the agenda.
Well I'll start taking those groups seriously when they start acknowledging that ANY murder of ANY person is heinous. To have their "Candle Light Vigil" only for persons who meet their criteria is the same as waving a flag soaked in the blood of a martyr is for terrorists.
Oh and a description of the suspect in the Portland shooting/murder has been released.
"CORPUS CHRISTI — Portland police released a description of a suspect Thursday in the weekend shootings of two teenage girls who are being mourned in vigils this week across the country.
An eyewitness described the suspect as a white male in his 20s with dark hair standing 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing about 140 pounds."
Once again the police say they do not believe that the girls sexual orientation was a factor in their shooting. Try telling that to certain organizations, looking for their "Martyrs".

Missing posts.
I'm pretty sure those posts are gone now. I"m not entirely certain but what I believe happened is this.
Blogger/Google upgraded me to the new template/interface, it took several posts that I had published and put them back in draft. I delete my draft posts every month as I just use draft for a notepad you might say. So I deleted the posts that I had written, after they were snafued into the draft section.
That is all I am going to say on this matter other than if that is truly what happened I need to kick myself for not checking the draft posts before I deleted them. In my own defense however, I have never had this situation occur before.

Oh bother
with the issues of posts of mine disappearing I just went and changed passwords for 6 of my accounts. Now as long as I don't lose the post it note on my monitor until those passwords become ingrained, I'll be fine.
It is official
About 20 of my posts are GONE, MISSING, NOT HERE. most of them were rather critical of the Government, in particular they were critical of the President. And they are no longer on my blog. They are not in the Draft section, they are not in the scheduled section, they are not anywhere. I have been trying to find a cached version of my blog from february or march. I think what happened is when blogger rolled out it's new version many posts got mangled. And of course the archive.org server has been down any time I try to access the cached version of my blog. It says there is one from april 30th, but all day I can't get to it or any cached version of my blog.
What really chaps my but is the posts I want to see have links in them to the misdoing of the current resident to 1600 Pennsylvania and his henchmen/women. and it is for the most part only those posts.
Has anyone else lost any posts? Or am I imagining/hearing things?

Delegitimizing the Supreme Court
I have posted twice before about Obummer and his cronies attacking members of SCOTUS. First it was Justice Thomas, then it was Justice Roberts. (I had a post on it, but for some reason after going through 5 years of my blog it is not there) Then there is Obummer making his own edicts. Now all his attacks against the members of SCOTUS have a reason.
"OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — President Barack Obama's campaign has recruited a legion of lawyers to be on standby for this year's election as legal disputes surrounding the voting process escalate.
Thousands of attorneys and support staffers have agreed to aid in the effort, providing a mass of legal support that appears to be unrivaled by Republicans or precedent. Obama's campaign says it is particularly concerned about the implementation of new voter ID laws across the country, the possibility of anti-fraud activists challenging legitimate voters and the handling of voter registrations in the most competitive states."
If Obummer has delegitimized the SCOTUS, he can make spurious arguments to have several Justices recused. If that happens, He wins. Got that? If he can further delegitimize the conservative Justices of the court, he can steal the november election.

The desperation of democrats
is showing. How else would you explain this?
"MURPHYSBORO, Ill. (WLS) - A Democrat-controlled election board in a southern Illinois county has kicked four Republican candidates off the November ballot for using paper clips instead of staples on their filings.
The Jackson County GOP calls the action by the county's election board undemocratic.
The appointed board is comprised of State's Attorney Mike Wepsiec, Sheriff Robert Burns and Clerk Larry Reinhardt. It disqualified GOP candidates for county board, circuit clerk, coroner and state's attorney."

Women in Combat Arms
Stormbringer has it:
"This was inevitable - the Department of the Army is seriously considering allowing women to attend Ranger School.
Anybody who has ever attended that hellhole will know this is beyond a bad idea, this is insane.
The hero named Grim over at BlackFive has a great analysis of this PC-gone crazy:
A better argument: women are structurally at least four times as likely to be seriously injured in this kind of intense physical training, and possibly -- if the British army's experience is telling -- as much as eight times as likely.
This leaves three options for implementation, all of them bad."
I don't want anyone to think I'm bashing female soldiers, I am not, but except for a small minority of women, there is NO WAY they can meet the same physical standards as male soldiers. That is a certifiable incontrovertible FACT. Not a guess not a conjecture a FACT. And for the current administration to try to force this on the armed forces shows me that they are more concerned with "Looking Good" than in actually doing their jobs.

I hope they put the perps in general population
"For nine years the FBI and National Center for Missing & Exploited Children have partnered on what’s called the Innocence Lost National Initiative, during which law-enforcement agents combing truck stops and websites for kids working sex trade have “recovered” (their word) some 2,200 children. To that total add another 79, per today’s announcement — six of whom were in Dallas."
Prison inmates REALLLLLLLYYYYY don't like people who hurt or molest kids. So I hope the pimps and their associates all get put in general population.

Ohhh what an idiot
This recently happened in my neck of the woods.
A guy wanted to get off work early, so he called in a bomb threat. One leetle problem, he works at a refinery.
"CORPUS CHRISTI — A 26-year-old Robstown man pleaded guilty Monday to enticing another man to make hoax bomb threats to a Corpus Christi refinery.
During a hearing in federal court, Luna admitted he convinced his cousin to make several calls Oct. 25 and Oct. 28 to the Valero Refinery claiming there was a bomb on the property."
Uuhhmmm I thought any type of threat against our infrastructure, such as a refinery, is considered as a terrorism threat. I hope he like prison.....

Immigration Dissent
To go along with Obummer's "Targeted Assassinations" he also has a problem with his immigration policy and his instructions to the prosecutors.
"In a stinging, 22-page dissent to Monday's decision striking down most of Arizona's tough anti-illegal immigration law, Justice Antonin Scalia criticized President Barack Obama's announcement earlier this month that he would stay the deportation of young illegal immigrants and suggested that the federal government does not want to enforce its immigration laws.
"The president said at a news conference that the new program is 'the right thing to do' in light of Congress's failure to pass the administration's proposed revision of the Immigration Act," Scalia, a Reagan appointee, wrote in his dissent. "Perhaps it is, though Arizona may not think so. But to say, as the Court does, that Arizona contradicts federal law by enforcing applications of the Immigration Act that the President declines to enforce boggles the mind."
Scalia went on to write:
Arizona bears the brunt of the country's illegal immigration problem. Its citizens feel themselves under siege by large numbers of illegal immigrants who invade their property, strain their social services, and even place their lives in jeopardy. Federal officials have been unable to remedy the problem,and indeed have recently shown that they are unwilling to do so. Thousands of Arizona's estimated 400,000 illegal immigrants—including not just children but men and women under 30—are now assured immunity from enforcement, and will be able to compete openly with Arizona citizens for employment.
Scalia also repeatedly referenced Obama's policy of prosecutorial discretion, which directs Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to prioritize deporting the illegal immigrants who are frequent border crossers, have committed crimes, or recently entered the country illegally. The Obama administration has deported a record number of illegal immigrants, but its prosecutorial discretion policy still draws the ire of illegal immigration hawks.
Scalia directly referred to Obama's immigration enforcement policy as "lax" at one point."

It really is telling, just how idiotic Obummer's immigration policies are, when a Supreme Court Justice calls him out on it.

You know it's bad when Jimmy Carter is calling you out.
Former President Jimmy Carter, is calling out the Obama Administration on it's use of drones for targeted attacks.
"A former U.S. president is accusing the current president of sanctioning the "widespread abuse of human rights" by authorizing drone strikes to kill suspected terrorists.
Jimmy Carter, America's 39 th president, denounced the Obama administration for "clearly violating" 10 of the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, writing in a New York Times op-ed on Monday that the "United States is abandoning its role as the global champion of human rights."
When good Ol boy Jimmah starts calling you out for your abuses of targeted drone strikes ie: assassinations, you know you dun goofed. Add to the reports of "The One" watching all of the video from the strikes, it leads me to believe Obummer gets off on the power he has in authorizing the strikes.
Just what we need a narcissistic, egotistical wannabe with the power of life and death running the show.

Fast and Furious Pod Cast
David Kopel from The Volokh Conspiracy has done a 47 minute podcast about the history of Operation fast and Furious. I've tried twice to listen to it through Firefox and it crashed Firefox both times. So now I'm downloading it to listen to it off line. It is a 22 MB MP3 File and if you want to d/l it your self the link is: http://audio.ivoices.org/mp3/iipodcast551.mp3
I think you should give it a listen. To save it to your computer right click the links and choose Save As, then decide where you want to save it. Mine is on my desktop and I'm cuing it up right now

This reminded me of a book
in particular a certain statement by a certain character. The book is part of The Vorkosigan Saga, written by Lois McMaster Bujold. If I am remembering correctly the quote is by the Komarran who Emperor Gregor has his eyes on where she discusses how people want to "Eat their seed corn" when it comes to taking taxes out of the planet Komarr. If I could remember exactly the quote I would link you to the book at Amazon, but my brain has failed me. However back to the article I read. It discusses some issues with our current economic situation.
I will excerpt just a little bit, then direct you to the original article.
"I have frequently admitted to being simple minded. While the world's economic and financial systems are enormously complicated, it seems to me that the bottom line is not complicated at all. Governments, like private corporations and individuals, have assets and liabilities. When the first is larger than the second, the question is what to do with the surplus. When the second is larger than the first, one must do one or more than one of three things: somehow increase assets and/or diminish liabilities, or default (or declare bankruptcy), or borrow the difference.
The last is the least painful in the short run, though it means increasing liabilities over the long run. That requires that there is someone you can borrow from right now. That in turn means that someone has to be running a big enough surplus to cover your shortfall. The current world crisis seems to be the result of a simple mathematical fact: there is simply not enough surplus in the world economy to cover all of the world's debts."
I strongly suggest you click the above and read the whole thing.

More back door Government Regs to limit the Second Amendment
Over at the Volokh Conspiracy David Kopel has the story of OSHA citing a Gun Store/Range for so-called "violations", such as:
"A gun range instructor conducting shooter instruction was observed reaching down on the range floor to collect a loaded handgun cartridge. The employee was not wearing any hand protection such as gloves. The gun range floor was contaminated with lead. The gun had misfired and it required manual cycling of the barrel slide to remove the defective round which then fell on the gun range floor."
Uhhh, that is what you are supposed to do. If you clear a misfire you pick up the live cartridge from the ground. Uhh Common Sense...... Ohh that's right this is the GOVERNMENT......... Anyway go click the click above or below and RTWT, you really really need to know this stuff.

The Omelet I created
has some other fans. Many years ago I created the 5 egg, Ham and Cheese Omelet. I originally ordered it at the Denny's restaurant on Natural Bridge Road across from Lambert Airport. I could only get it at night when the manager wasn't in.Now for the third time, the IHOP in Corpus Christi has made it for me, and this time the person who was with me ordered it as well, and then the gentleman sitting over in the next booth asked for it as well. Heck if this keeps going, it might become a regular menu item.
A 5 Egg, Ham and Cheese Omelet is simply a 2 egg Ham and Cheese Omelet, that is folded into a 3 Egg Ham and Cheese Omelet. The extra melted cheese goodness when you cut into it with your fork and the texture of the eggs, hmmmm I'm making myself hungry again just thinking about it.
So try it sometime. If you aren't a large person like me, you can always share it your friend or sweetheart.
Me? I eat the whole thing by myself, plus a shortstack of buttermilk pancakes, crisp hashbrowns and wheat toast with strawberry jam.
The best thing about it though, is that IHOP, could have charged me for 2 omelets, instead they just charged me for 2 extra eggs. I will DEFINITELY be going back there to get it again. And IHOP, if you DO decide to make this a regular menu Item, could you kinda name it for me? The Grey Locke 5 Egg Ham and Cheese Omelet, or Mark's 5 Egg Omelet, or The Texas Fellowship 5 Egg Omelet or something like that.
k'tanx Bai!!

Strong Winds of change - From my inbox
Winds of Change....
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.
In three days, most of the people in The United States of America will have the message.This is one idea that really should be passed around.
*Congressional Reform Act of 2012*_
1. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.
2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 12/31/12. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congressmen/women made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive the message. Don't you think it's time?
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.
In three days, most of the people in The United States of America will have the message.This is one idea that really should be passed around.
*Congressional Reform Act of 2012*_
1. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.
2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 12/31/12. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women.

Very Interesting Observation
over at The Jawa Report, about "Palestine"
What's Missing?
The link shows a map from the Ottoman Empire, and no where on that map does the word Palestine or any possible derivation of it appear.

Operation Fast and Furious
This video is getting posted all over the place. If you have a blog, please post it yourself.
Homeland Security Terrorism Study
The Department of Homeland Security allows it's political masters biases to color a report that could be very instrumental in keeping this nation safe.
"In an era of agenda-driven academic research, who watches the watchers? Or more accurately, who gets to designate and categorize the “objective” data? This is the question raised after examining a study and related dataset recently published by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) at the University of Maryland.
START was launched in 2005 with a $12 million grant from the Department of Homeland Security, and is recognized by DHS as one of its “Centers for Excellence.” In December, DHS announced it had renewed START’s funding to the tune of $3.6 million.
A recent START study titled “Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States, 1970 to 2008” puts the “excellence” description in question. A press release announcing the report states the study concluded that nearly a third of all terrorist attacks between 1970 and 2008 occurred in just five major metropolitan areas. The study was based on a START database called “Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism in the United States,” and both the report and database are supported by the DHS Science and Technology Directorate’s Human Factors/Behavioral Sciences Division.

No mention of KNOWN terrorist attacks? Read this little excerpt.
"Compare how the START researchers define “left wing” and “right wing” extremism. Left-wing extremism is defined at follows:
It should be no surprise that two subgroups identified in the codebook under “extreme right-wing” include “gun rights” and “tax protest.” Tea Party terrorists, anyone?
Again, this raises the question: who gets to categorize the data?"
I've got a really novel and unique Idea....... How about you guys concern with people who have said out loud on worldwide broadcast over the airwaves and the internet, that they intend to "Destroy" America. You know the Islamic Radicalists? People such as Hamas, Al Qaeda, Iran you know ADMITTED TERRORISTS! Oh, I'm sorry.. You call them freedom fighters or fighters against the oppression of the Imperialistic Western Hegemony.
Listen up IDIOTS! Get your Rectal Cranial Inversion cured and open your eyes to what reality actually IS. This isn't the time to define the "Is" as Former President William Jefferson Clinton did. We KNOW the definition of Terrorist, quit trying to change it to fit your biased and politicized ends.
IDIOTS!

"Compare how the START researchers define “left wing” and “right wing” extremism. Left-wing extremism is defined at follows:
Extreme left-wing groups want to bring about change through violent revolution rather than through established political processes. In addition, this category includes secular left-wing groups that rely heavily on terrorism to overthrow the capitalist system and either establish “a dictatorship of the proletariat” (Marxist-Leninists) or, much more rarely, a decentralized, non-hierarchical sociopolitical system (anarchists).Fair enough. Now, right-wing extremism:
The extreme far-right is composed of groups that believe that one’s personal and/or national “way of life” is under attack and is either already lost or that the threat is imminent (for some the threat is from a specific ethnic, racial, or religious group), and believe in the need to be prepared for an attack either by participating in paramilitary preparations and training or survivalism. Groups may also be fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation), anti-global, suspicious of centralized federal authority, reverent of individual liberty, and believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty. (Emphasis added)If you’re fiercely nationalistic (pro-American), anti-global (anti-UN), suspicious of centralized federal authority (like the Framers), reverent of individual liberty (like Patrick Henry), and believe in “conspiracy” theories (like the federal government allowing the sale of assault weapons to Mexican drug cartels to justify limiting American’s rights under the Second Amendment, a la Fast and Furious), then according to these taxpayer-funded researchers, you too are on the “extreme right-wing.” Many Americans would be surprised to find themselves so categorized by the researchers at START.
It should be no surprise that two subgroups identified in the codebook under “extreme right-wing” include “gun rights” and “tax protest.” Tea Party terrorists, anyone?
Again, this raises the question: who gets to categorize the data?"

Why are women of the liberal left
so mean and catty to any woman on the conservative right? Gay Patriot has some answers, especially in the comment section.
What explains Conservative Woman Derangement Syndrome?

It doesn't matter what caliber you use
as this repost of a Jim Higgenbotham post states.
"Surviving a gunfight isn't what you think it is. Don’t let conventional wisdom get you killed. A well place round to "center mass" in your attacker may not take him out of the fight. Lots of people stay in the fight after "center mass" hits, and some even win it. If you expect to win your gunfight, you have to make sure that you have effectively ended the threat of your attacker. One, two or even several well placed "center mass" shots may not do what you think it will, and learning to recognize this before you gunfight may save your life."
