RECCE ROOM

On October 5-6, 2024, this author again attended an Appleseed. Goals were as follows: Shoot a score of 210+ on the AQT - again with an AR-15.  Use the Magpul RLS sling in an entire Appleseed class.  Shoot alongside a friend, and encourage him on.  The shoot is in the books, and a good shoot it was. I fired less than 150 rounds and the entire shoot was less than 250 rounds total (For reasons that will be outlined below, I did not participate in every shooting drill). There was a LOT more instruction than the prior five Appleseeds I have attended.  For only the second time, the kneeling position was demonstrated. Appleseed correctly teaches that the kneeling position is less stable than sitting, and should only be used by those who cannot accomplish the sitting position. One shooter used the kneeling position instead of sitting in the second stage, and he used it to marvelous effect.  Not surprising, again, no certificates were given out to the four individuals who shot Expert Rifleman

And, in case Blogger decided to delete these pictures (they sometimes inexplicably do this), here is the text: In 2022, California principal Christopher Christensen posted a tragic su*cide note on social media before jumping to his death at Disneyland.  He started the post by saying: “I hate when people leave this Earth with so many unanswered questions. So, I hope this provides some insight and perspective...”  In the post, he shared photos with his wife, Marlena, revealing they had been privately married for 3.5 years and described their relationship as "amazing" until recently.  He recounted a heated argument with Marlena in front of her two daughters, stressing that he never hit or harmed anyone during the exchange.  Despite this, Marlena called the police, leading to his arrest.  Christensen expressed deep frustration with the situation, stating that he was unfairly jailed and suspended from his position at Newland Elementary School in Huntington Beach.  He also criticiz

Recently a woman was arrested for offending members of a city council.  Some replies that you really need to think about: 1. They absolutely will kick in your door, arrest you, confiscate your arms, your assets and laugh about it, when mayors and governors tell them to. Prepare to defend yourselves and your neighbors. You can't do it by yourself. 2. I keep telling people. Cops hold their oath to their slave masters. Not those who pay into their livelihoods. 3.  The cops who carry out unconstitutional orders should be treated like rabid dogs.  (Author's note: as should those cops who stand idly by and allow it to happen) 4.  The perpetrator of the attack on Trump was spotted and photographed on the roof by law enforcement nearly 30 minutes before firing To the invariable "bad apple" commenters, that I am certain will reply: I used to be 100% pro cop... then I saw how they ALWAYS arrest the wrong person.  The phrase is "one bad apple spoils the whole bunch. "

This author has many preppers for friends, due to obvious reasons . One of the topics that comes up often is comms in an emergency situation. I have decided the hill I will stop on is local comms - as can be had via normal handheld walkies or similar. To get more range, ham radio is about the only civilian option, and I will NOT be going that way.  It is a protest. And this is why .  From the tweets : "I hate to be discouraging, but I must remind everyone that even in a time of emergency, unlicensed operation is against FCC regulations. I know that personally I've received a few tattle-telling messages from hams over the past few days who have reported to me people sharing life-saving information over the radio without a license.  This is a constant reminder that for the overwhelming majority of the ham radio hobby, there is NO emergency so severe that unlicensed operation will be accepted. Sure, net control for formal nets can operate under emergency rules, but for most hams,

 Found online: "OK, we've tried women's suffrage and discovered their primary political concern is killing their own babies. Can we finally call this experiment failed and move on?" - Matthew Cochra Here is a graphic, showing that the top priority for young men is being able to get a job to support a family. The most important issue for young women is to be able to kill their baby.  These women kill millions of their babies every year out of convenience. It is, to them, and alternate form of birth control. They hide behind the lie that abortion must be protected for women who were raped, yet this almost never happens in reality - about once every two years in Tennessee per the numbers.
