CHAT What troubles you the most if "they" decide to . . .

One must ask oneself, “What is the goal?”

If the goal is simply to avoid death, that becomes a hard puzzle indeed to solve. On the other hand, if the goal is to both live and die honorably, or righteously, that goal is attainable.

A metaphor of sorts:

Many years ago, back in my youth, I played some competitive chess. In one tournament I ended up playing the PA collegiate state champion. Everyone there (myself included) knew I had no chance of winning. This guy was mowing down everyone he had previously played in the tournament. He actually had an official global ranking, though I can’t remember now what that number was.

So, how does one approach such a situation? What is the goal?

Well, for better or worse, I decided to go down fighting. I refused to resign, even after the outcome of the game became more or less obvious on the chessboard. He would eventually beat me, but I wasn’t going to make it easy. The champ (an oriental kid) won the match in 56 moves, which is an eternity in a chess match. He was very frustrated and angry, though he was “the winner.”

I walked away from that experience quite happy and content.

So, again, what is the goal?

Only thing that would trouble me is how far we all fell from what we could have been collectively as a nation that it had to get so bad in the first place. That is and will be a bitter disappointment. I pray that it doesn't get that bad.

As for the rest of it well I think bracketquant already has the right idea.

What troubles me the most.....

Leaving family(dogs too!) who I live for behind after I'm shot dead for simply being a independent individual. Who's going to take care of them? Probably my men (sons) will step up, that's the plan anyway.


Muse...

Really, I think about it. In a socialistic system no one should be independent of the system. That's why we are penalized for working hard and the more we make the more we owe.

Enemy of the socialist is a non socialist who is fined, mandated, taxed, and regulated to death. So when money(fiat) becomes worthless and let the independent individual is still not in their camp....enemy number one.

In the TV series Deep Space 9, at one point Miles O’Brien is sitting at the bar talking to a cardassian soldier. It’s clear that O’Brien hates the cardassian. After a little back-and-forth, Miles says, “I don’t hate you cardassian. I hate what I BECAME because of you.”

Applies perfectly to our present situation.

I worry about what will happen to my grandchildren. They are the sweetest kids and so well behaved with good manners. Sometimes I think we should have raised them to be little hellions.

Sit through Mel Gibson’s “Braveheart”, with them, a time or two, with explanations and teachable moments made the most of, all the way through.

Then do the same with “Patriot”.

Living On A Prayer
Our faith is strong here at my home.

One such example is that my wife and I both decided against the cv Vax, together, as well as agreed ahead of time that should one or both of us become ill and test positive, no matter how bad it got we would not go to the hospital for a vent tub and be guinea pigged to death.

Early this year, she did test positive and was very ill. We were doing everything we could do get her to her through it. All the way along she kept saying how she prayed for me to not catch it, and reminded me often that our pact still stood. No hospital. Faith, prayers, and a vigorous regimen of vitamins, supplements, bootlegged meds,, and priceless life saving guidance from a dear nurse friend got her through.

All that to say this...

For us, we will not surrender without a fight.

Well. From my mountain top view we are winning and nothing can stop that. The Deep State is running in desperation. That is why THEY are procrastinating in Arizona. Why THEY raided Trump. THEY are afraid and it smells good. THEY know THEY can’t win a gun fight and that is about all THEY have left. So sit tall in that saddle. We had our Alamo now San Jacinto is ours.

In y'alls opinion, would BB, #2, #3, or #4 shot be best for drones? Asking for a friend.

Well I would also consider a good full choke on a long barrel. And try to find a good reloader to reload your own with lead.

Geese over 70 yards can still be taken, I've seen 100 + shots. Experiment and hunt with it. Geese are not that bad eating. Even if you do need to strip the meat, soak in buttermilk and fry in butter, dogs will love it!

A quick read and sales add on chokes, IDK about this brand, but there's some information to get you started....

The gaslighting and lies, psychological warfare tactics, i.e. repeating lies so that they will be believed, and being subjected to a society where a lot of people have succumbed to Stockholm syndrome bothers me quite a bit. The whole thing is so surreal.
We have to stop and think: who is to blame for this mess we are in? It's us, We the People, who don't care enough to go and vote IN PERSON for the right people to lead us in the correct direction. We the People who would rather go to a movie than learn who would do what if/when elected. We the People who let the leftists dismantle our country little by little until there is nothing left of the original. We the People who now wonder how to fix what we let crumble. When will we wake up?

The wicked Witch of the West had flying monkeys that nobody could stop and countless troops of guards in a castle that seemed to reach the sky.

But you get rid of that pussy Witch and the whole thing falls to pieces.......

We are at war with wicked Witch of the West........aka the elite Global central banking money changers............and the government with its armed forces/weapons are nothing more than flying monkeys and troop guards.

If they come after you.....................take out the Federal Reserve in this country as it is the US branch of that world central banking system............not the government or armed forces.

This is what troubled me about the Jan 6th thing.....................the wrong target folks..........they should have been at the Fed Reserve building not the capital building.

Kill the head of the snake.

When I was in Jr highschool, I was a skinny tall kid. We had to play Dodge Ball in gym class. I had no chance of competing against some of the big, stout kids that could really chunk those dodge balls. Being the fearless little person I was/am, my goal became to be the last one on our side standing. If you got hit and didn't leave the court, the coaches would give you swats in their office. I remember one time, I had a ball in my hands, and like a little monkey dodging around, fending off all these big kids trying to nail me. They were laughing and trying to get me good. It went on for several minutes with me being the last one on our side. I felt it was a Victory on some level. I could have just thrown the ball and be over, but where's the fun in that. It didn't hurt that bad to get hit, unless you caught one in the face.

So, you're saying a total idiot who could not find enough supporters to fill a public restroom somehow won an election against a man who could not find a stadium or venue large enough to fit his supporters in? This was the case with not one but every rally. Not only did Trump supporters travel from all over America but also on their own dime. Compare this to not just china joe but crooked clinton who in many instances had to pay people and provide transportation to attend her rallies and still had a hard time filling a small high school gym. But yet we are supposed to believe one was an actual contender and one was a winner? I have seen mountains of evidence of the fraud and there are still mountains of evidence left to see. The fact that neither had enough true supporters to win a presidential election let alone a small rural towns mayor's race tells me the fraud is at levels unimaginable to everyone except those committing the fraud.

It was not an attack. It was an actual peaceful protest with a small percentage of federal agents and paid informants unsuccessfully trying to incite an actual riot. Think what the devastation would have been if the J6 group would have been armed and committed to stop the blatantly fraudulent election. Then think as millions of other citizens heard about the battle to stop the theft of their votes and a righteous cause to restore and preserve our nation. How many millions more would have joined? Every image and story of someone's mother, father, brother, sister, wife, husband, son, daughter, and other relatives as well as close friends being murdered by jackbooted thugs while defending our nation would have been the equivalent of pouring gas on a fire.

Living in a bubble like that makes one wonder what your O2 sat was by the time you finished typing.

Regardless.............its barking up the wrong tree to think the government is the problem.................they are the patsy and conduit......part of the problem yes...........but if you eliminate them without getting at the source then the next government will end up the same.

Capitalisms and Communism are pretty close to polar opposites but they both accomplish the same thing (which is wealth and control for the elites and economic slavery for the masses) when central bankers control it all.
