RECCE ROOM

Found online: this photo with the following paragraph - I was just thinking . . . There are four living former Presidents (two Democrats and two Republicans) as well as the sitting President. None of them support Donald Trump. That's called bipartisanship. Perhaps America should pay attention to the people who actually know what the job entails. Yeah... because each of these guys did such a great job. And while we are on the subject, what has bipartisanship brought America that Americans actually wanted???

Once I rented a car to a woman who had 3 wrecks in a single week. Over the weekend, she'd wrecked her car and she came in Monday morning to get her car in the shop, and get a rental vehicle. I rented her a car. Her car was ready Friday afternoon. So, she dropped off the rental with me around 2 pm on Friday afternoon. I gave her a ride to the collision repair facility. About an hour later, I got a call from the collision repair facility. The same lady was needing another car. I asked the Repair Writer if the shop had messed up the repair... some shops did, from time to time, miss some part of the repairs. No, I was told, she had been in another collision on the way home. I picked her up from the shop, and rented her a car again. In the process of turnig right onto the main road, she pulled out in front of someone and collided with them. She was, of course, in the rental vehicle at that moment. Her 3rd collision in a week. Posted via Blogaway

Dear feminists, "Feminism is about equality." Or so the saying goes. I don't buy it. I don't buy it because I can show you how feminism is not about equality. Child Support / Alimony All over, men are forced to pay alimony and / or child support to women who refuse to work, or are willfully underemployed. The anti-family courts consistently rule against men, regardless of her facts. Often, men are ruled against, regardless of their ability to pay. Feminists ought to be calling for the elimination of such barbaric practices. Instead, they scream violently that men need to "man up." "Man up" - feminist speak for requiring a man to do something that would be never asked of a woman, much less required of her. Posted via Blogaway

Dear feminists, "Feminism is about equality." Or so the saying goes. I don't buy it. I don't buy it because I can show you how feminism is not about equality. False Rape Accusations Feminists want men accused of rape to lose all rights, regardless of the veracity of the allegations. So much for "innocent until proven guilty." Meanwhile, women who destroy men's lives with false rape accusations, then later drop charges against him, rarely face prosecution. He might have been locked up for years, lost wages, his family broken up, or lost potential jobs, opportunities, etc. She walks away, scot-free. If feminists were truly concerned about equality when it comes to justice, they would ostracize these women, and demand they face legal ramifications. Posted via Blogaway

Dear feminists, "Feminism is about equality." Or so the saying goes. I don't buy it. I don't buy it because I can show you how feminism is not about equality. Male Abortion As things stand now, a woman may get an abortion if she doesn't want her child. If the father doesn't want an abortion, he is SOL. His son or daughter can be killed at the whim of the woman. The other side of the coin, if a woman is pregnant, and the father doesn't want to be responsible for rearing a child, once again, he is SOL. It is solely up to the woman whether the child is killed for convenience. If the father doesn't wish to pay child support, he is SOL. Some countries are investigating "male abortion" - the idea that a father can sign away his paternal rights, and in so doing, his responsibility to provide finances for the woman and child. Of course, feminists are screaming mad about the proposal. They want men to "man up." "Man up" - fem...

There's a myth in America, and other "1st-world" countries. It's the myth of the single mom. Sure, there is the occasional widow... there always has been. But that's not the bulk of single mothers out there. Sure, there's the occasional wife who suffered physical abuse... there always has been. But again, that is not the bulk of single mothers out there. Remember, too - it's not abuse until the man hits back. Most single moms out there are single moms by their own choice. They chose to have sex, have a child, and then put their ex on the hook for the monetary support as awarded by the anti-family courts. * Many of the women who have done this have done so with that singular goal in mind. They were out to scam a man from the beginning. * Many other women in this situation are there because they fell for the lure of "Divorce Porn" - the modern pushing of acceptance of divorce as not only normal and healthy, but desirable in many cases. * Many ...

Almost all liberal responses could be honestly reinterpreted to convey the following two thoughts: 1. "There is no logical rebuttal to your conservative argument, so here's some feelz to the contrary." Or... 2. "I have run out of logical retorts, so here is a red herring. " Posted via Blogaway

I recently attended a class by a friend and fellow patriot on combat first aid. This is the summary and review of that class. The Instructor LPN. Combat Medic - US Army Summary Topics covered include, but we're not limited to: Basic triage Casualty extraction Overwhelming return fire Fundamental diagnosis of wounds Treatment of common combat wounds - gunshot, cuts, broken bones, etc. Use of a tourniquet Making a basic bandage Making a basic splint Clearing of airway - oral and nasal At the end, we did a live simulation of a recon patrol being ambushed. Several team members were "injured" (kayfabe) according to design. Other team members had to provide cover fire and extract the casualties. Combat first aid was rendered. Naturally, no live rounds were used, nor were participants actually shot at. Firecrackers and a smoke bomb were used to simulate the stressful environment, and a CS grenade was launched into the middle of the recon group to add realism to t...

Recently, I took my children to see Captain America: Civil War. It was a good flick, as I've come to expect from Marvel. If you haven't seen it, you will want to stop reading right here. Spoiler Alert. The underlying theme was centered around gun control. Not literally, as most of Marvel's superheroes do not use firearms. But figuratively, as events in this film and prior films lead to the UN wanting control of the Avengers group. Of course, some of the Avengers agree, and some do not. On one side, there was Iron Man. Tony Stark was approached by a lady who blamed him for the death of her son during events of Avengers: Age of Ultron . Stark, ridden with guilt, wants the Avengers to be "registered" by the UN, and only allowed to operate within the guidelines and at the orders of the UN. Gun control. On the other side was Captain America. Steve Rogers felt that freedom to operate was critical to the successes the Avengers had been experiencing. Furthermore, he arg...

Recently, I instructed a   marksmanship clinic . My wife was one of the participants. She was impressed to be one of the few riflemen of the group, but I was not surprised. So, during a recent range trip, I gave her a few challenges.  This was an evaluation she shot. She scored 45, the minimum score to be a Rifleman. However, this target was shot at 100 yards, not 50. So that means the target was to scale with a 600 yard target. This was a 100 yard group she shot (on the same target - scaled 600 yards) using Federal 69 gr match ammo. Sub 2 MOA group. This was a group she fired from 200 yards. Again, she used Federal 69 gr match ammo. Again, a sub 2 MOA group. Now that we had her precision down, we decided to do some other challenges. Her first time shooting with a red dot. Even though it is not centered, the small group is proof she maintained the same sight picture each time. A few clicks of left windage and elevation would have had her dead center. And next... This is my w...

Some time back, I instructed a marksmanship clinic . A couple of astute readers noted that I did not shoot, yet there was an evaluation at the end. Just how would I fare in this evaluation? I went to the range, and posted two 400m scaled targets. The evaluation I gave had a 300m and a 400m target, so this one was harder. In the clinic, shooters had upto 5 minutes to complete the evaluation. I limited myself to 30 seconds. As you can see, perfect score. But what about the time? Less than 30 seconds: Recap: * Perfect score * Less than 30 seconds * Harder evaluation.

Some conversations I've had in person this political season with leftists: Gun Law Leftist: " I supported   Makayla's Law  and I think all reasonable gun owners do. " Usagi: " Nope. Not even close. " Leftist: " Why not? Do you not wish to punish parents that enable children to kill people? " Usagi: " If we do start punishing people for things they didn't do, can I just make a law to punish you when someone gets shot with a gun? " 2nd Amendment Leftist: " I believe in the 2nd Amendment. In the militia. In the right to bear arms. " Usagi: " Cool! I belong to a militia. Wanna join?! " Leftist: Election Leftist: " Would you consider voting for me? I'm in need of some Republican supporters. " Usagi: " Then you came to the wrong person. " Presidential Politics Leftist: "I can't imagine any intelligent people voting for Trump. Now you, Usagi, you're a pretty smart gu...

"Usagi, the government can kill you if they want. They have more manpower. If you have a gun, they have 100 guns... bigger guns. They can drone strike you. They have air support. If they want you dead, then there's really nothing you can do about that." - several people I've met over the years. To an extent, this statement is true. But, it ignores several crucial fact. Most notable, the government and elites need a populace that will support them. They are not hunters, farmers, or fighters. They cannot survive on their own. They must live off of the work of others. This meme sums it up well. Want to know a secret? The government could kill us all. But they don't dare. Not for fear of retribution, but for fear of having to do all the things man has done for thousands of years. Things they are not equipped to do: hunting, fishing, farming, building, working, fighting. The tool they are forced to use is occasional violence and much intimida...

Ok, watch my buddy, Tommy, do a commercial for ammoatcost.com Tell me this isn't the funniest thing you've seen all day: By the way, Tommy does not normally speak with an Australian accent that occasionally dips into North London.

"Girls mature faster than boys." Ok, that statement is not completely accurate. A better way of saying it would be: "Girls mature earlier than boys." This is acknowledged fact. But there are always two sides to every coin. Here's what's not said, but what is still true: * Girls also stop maturing earlier than boys. They are usually done by age 20. * Men continue to mature into their 30's, 40's, and beyond. * Women have a greater emotional intellect. * Men have a greater logical intellect. Many Red Pill sources have claimed that a man should talk to a woman as though she were about 20, regardless of her actual age. This works wonders, and I utilize it myself to great success. I was reminded about the same during a recent conversation at church. We were between early service and late service. Several of the teen / early 20's guys were hanging around, talking cars. I like cars, too - as does a fellow member of the security team. So we spoke...

Recently,   this article  on the "Wage Gap" came up in my Facebook feed. I read it, and had a few takes on it. So here goes, by category... by category of my take on it, that is! Factual We all know "Wage Gap" is a myth. It has been debunked over and over, by reputable outlets,   including Forbes - The official Bureau of Labor Department statistics show that the median earnings of full-time female workers is 77 percent of the median earnings of full-time male workers. But that is very different than “77 cents on the dollar for doing the same work as men." Sarcastic Well, women in the workplace don't even do 77% of the work, so in my estimation, they are still being overpaid! Diplomatic From the original article: "Ladies, you can officially not feel bad for those long lunches or that extra Facebook break." You know, that really doesn't help your cause... pointing out that you actually don't do as much work as men. Peanut Gallery ...

Did I ever tell you about the time I became a muslim? No? Well, pull up a chair and listen to this. Or read it. Whatever your pleasure. As you probably know, I read Return of Kings - pretty much on a daily basis. A man in question ("MIQ") knew spring of last year that I read it. I sent him a link! I sent him the link in front of a witness (" Mr. Alighieri "), who also reads ROK. Recently, ROK scheduled a meetup, which was attacked by feminists and social justice warriors. The meetings were eventually "cancelled." However, when MIQ and his girlfriend (38 years old, never married, no kids - read into that what you will) got wind of it, they wanted to meet the ROK readers with arms. I politely advised I would be in the ROK group and would similarly be armed. This set off the girlfriend. Behind the scenes, she whined, complained, and raised cain. Things were stirred up, and family was brought in, and much ado was made of nothing. At one point, one family ...

If you don't see the problem with these two pictures, then please do not become a parent in  the near future. Back in the old days, before female depression, obesity, and promiscuity were running rampant, people taught their daughters to be ladies. See, only a great fool tries to teach a fish to fly, then become upset when it cannot. Back in the old days, before men trying to go to ladies' rooms, spiking male suicide rates, and the divorce corporation world, people taught their sons to be real men... which included being a badass if necessary. Again, only a great fool tries to teach a fish to fly. Let's get back to men being men, women being women, and people being ok with that. Everybody will be much happier. Posted via Blogaway

Who built civilization? I don't think that was the question   Chateau Heartiste  was trying to answer, but they answered it anyways. ZFG. ... the formula for building advanced civilizations was, for thousands of years, organized testosterone: do more shit, get more/better pussy and respect from your bros. And that, dear readers, is how every major accomplishment has happened in the history of mankind. Posted via Blogaway

Recently, I came across   this link . Regardless your feelings on "militias," the marksmanship standards are decent. So, I decided to see if I was up to the task. Course of Fire 50 yards Three magazines, each prepped with 5 rounds. (15 rounds, total) Standing: 5 rounds / kneeling: 5 rounds / prone: 5 rounds. Mag changes between positions. Time: 45 seconds or less. Target: 8.5 x 11 paper. Scoring Hit = 3 points. 25 - 34 points = Marksman 35 - 39 points = Sharpshooter 40 - 45 points = Expert Equipment My SPR. Federal American Eagle 55-grain ammo. No sling, no bipod, no rucksack. I used my phone as a timer. I started the timer, set the phone aside to shoot, then picked the phone back up to turn the timer off. Total time was 39 seconds, so no time - reduction techniques were needed. Result As you can see from the photo, I scored a perfect 45 points. 7 shots hit the 10-ring of this target: all five from prone, and two from kneeling. The final three shots from k...

"I'm registered Republican. I'm not voting for Cruz or Trump. So I guess it's Kasich." More of a protest vote, or do you prefer a brokered convention? "Lesser of 3 evils." - A Pennsylvania "Republican" just prior to the primary. Posted via Blogaway

This past weekend, I taught a marksmanship clinic to 31 Patriots. Even though rain threatened us all day, we didn't get any more than a couple of drops until cleanup at the end. Despite the constant cloud cover, a few participants got slight sunburns. Here is my review as an instructor. If a participant has a review, I will link to it here post-edit. Safety We started with a safety briefing, and defined what we would call a safe rifle for the day (magazine out, bolt back, safety on, rifle on the ground, nobody touching the rifle). Of course, everyone is a safety officer. If any participant sees something unsafe, they are to call out in a commanding voice, "cease fire!" Line commands were also reviewed, so as to familiarize the participants with the nomenclature. Instruction We started with a brief talk about "Marksmanship: The American Martial Art," as well as why marksmanship is important. Then it was to the firing line to fire a 3-shot group at an Army 300...
