Tired

Yes, I'm tired. Tired of this current life of mine, tired of women, tired of politics, tired of working, tired of prepping, tired of most everything.

Tired of this current life of mine.
   I cannot find a decent job. I make decent money (for this day anyway)  but the hours suck. Open, close, mid-day they all get mixed up until I don't know what day it is. Broke all the time. I don't mean got a 1000 bucks broke , I mean I've got 10 dollars broke. Lonely all the time. Can't afford to go anywhere do anything, buy anything. And cannot find another job. Constant pain and discomfort. I have to work just to survive but that cuts me out of disability. Now, If I have disability, I can get a job, If I have a job I cannot get disability. FUCK! I make insurance payments yet cannot afford the out of pocket expense or put back enough money to live on while I'm off work for surgery.
Cannot afford to make repairs to my truck or my Harley. so the truck gets ignored and the Harley sits, waiting on parts and repairs, I have given up most of my hobbies due to physical problems. Basically, I work and go home and watch TV. And mow because I have too

Tired of women.
   Yep, fed up to here with them. The love of my life divorced me with no notice, no discussion, no nothing just gone. She took the house I paid for with MY 401K and  I did ALL the work on. She will take 1/2 of my union retirement. And she took one of my best friends as her new husband. I have had one date in the last year and she ranted for 2.5 hours about her ex. I cut dinner short and dumped her at her door, I recently asked a co-worker to go to a concert with me. I got the standard female response...Uhm, I don't know, let me think about it.  I cannot get any hits on ANY online dating site. I treat women good, respect them, honor them, look after them and protect them but I guess that is not good enough so, the hell with them.

Tired of politics
    They all tell the same story. And they are ALL LIARS! It's high time for the revolution from my perspective. The soap box and ballot box have failed so it's high time for the cartridge box. Time for a change. They had it right back in 1861.

Tired of working.
Do not get me wrong, I am one of those folks who really like to work. But, I do not like working for no gain. As in, I'm stagnating. I do not like retail at all. I do not make enough dough to do anything, go anywhere, do anything. I work in constant pain, and I'm under the effect of a handful of medication all the time.

Tired of prepping.
   I have prepped for years. Have put vast amounts of dollars into it. Yet now I'm alone, in a big city and no prospect for a bug out location or a group to join. I have had to eat most of my prep foods just to survive recently. I cannot afford to buy ammo anymore so I do not shoot anymore. At this time prepping seems pointless. I'm alone in a major city with nowhere to go to. So what's the fucking point? Shoot until I'm out of ammo then die in place I guess.

Tired of Most everything.

Nothing has any flavor anymore. Dull, lifeless. I have a type A personality. I like dangerous hobbies, Shooting, driving fast, motorcycling, biker bars, pyrotechnics, explosions, making things out metal and wood, riding ATV's.  Since the old lady split, nothing brings me happiness. Life has a fog over it.
The News is a drag, no REAL news, no REAL investigations. I'm tired of groups trying to remove all monuments to the soldiers and leaders of the South from the time of Lincolns War. Like the jackasses at the Washington and Lee College that had the Confederate flags removed from Robert E. Lees Tomb. For crying out loud, he was a major General for the South and fought for the Confederacy! And he was a founder  of that college. AND those jackasses CHOSE to go to THAT college.  Now dickheads are trying to remove Jefferson Davis's statue from the University of Texas. Let's see, Texas was a member of the Confederacy, right? And Jeff was President of said Confederacy, correct? Yet these misguided fools choose to ignore the fact that most major Eastern colleges were either founded by or had the land granted by, slave importers, ignore the fact that Lincoln was a liar, a murderer, destroyed the Constitution and started a war just to expand the federal governments power. I guess I'm just tired of revisionist history. It seems that a lot of stuff pisses me off anymore and I get little enjoyment from anything.

I'm hoping that my outlook will change, that I can improve my income, that my health issues will get better. I'm not hoping for a change in my outlook on women. They can thank themselves for that.

It's Coming

Lately I've been thinking a lot about the War of Northern Aggression and what it means to us today. I have read several books, mainly about the Missouri/Kansas border war that preceded the War for Southern Independence.
   In the Border War violence was rampant on both sides. Murder, theft and terror were hallmarks of the day. Action, re-action, reprisals were frequent.
By the time the entire nation erupted into a war promulgated by Abraham Lincoln and his cronies, the emotions of the day were running very hot. Battles, skirmishes, raids and naval actions, all pitting Americans against former Americans. I say former as the Southern states involved had invoked Constitutional Rights and legally seceded from the Union. So, all participants from the South were Confederates. Which is ironic as the United States was formed as a confederation of States.
   From the start the Confederates had decided to fight under the time honored practice known as the Just War Doctrine. In contrast, the Lincoln apparatchik extolled the concept of Total War, which is well known today. Total War pits soldier and armies against women, children, livestock, infrastructure, property and the very means to sustain life. Even when faced with atrocities committed by the North, specifically, Sherman and his bummers, General David Hunter and General Philip Sheridan, the South with a few exceptions, fought under the Just War Doctrine.

All the while bullets and shot were flying, Good Ol' Abe was hard at work issuing orders directly to military leaders, completely bypassing the chain of command.  He violated the first, second, fourth and fifth amendments. In fact he personally ordered the arrest of hundreds of pro-south, pro-secession editors and had them imprisoned. He ordered newspaper offices destroyed and even had some folks "disappeared". He even went as far as to order the arrest of one Supreme Court Justice. Habeas corpus was suspended and no fence sitter or secession supporter was safe from this evil man.

When it comes to the issue of prisoner of war camps, horrors abounded on both sides. Astounding death rates, disease and torture were all present. The Northern camps did this willingly or on orders from Washington. The South however had little choice in the matter. Take the infamous Andersonville into perspective. The guards themselves lived on the same rations as the prisoners did, had the same death rate of the prisoners. Conditions were unimaginable. To top it off, the North had destroyed all agriculture so there was little to no food. The North refused to accept any released prisoners, even sending thousands BACK to that hell hole, all calculated to play into the hand of the remaining press, all Lincoln supporters.
When you look at HONEST history, you will see systematic conditions of evil on the part of the North from the President to his Cabinet, to many military leaders to the common soldier.

We then come to modern times. suspension of Constitutional rights is the norm. States Rights are basically dead. The President(s) act independently without Congressional involvement. The Government "allows" us First Amendment zones at the things we are protesting. We have foreign troops in this country training to disarm civilians. We have a police force that is increasingly militarized and much evidence shows they are going wild, beating, shooting, torturing and killing people over nothing. We get no response from our legislators. We have government departments that HATE the American people. We are imprisoned and killed over tax issues, We have had many military leaders fired in the last couple of years and replaced with the Presidents cronies. It is rumored that they were replaced because they refused to say yes to the question of whether they would order troops to fire on US citizens. The list of wrongs perpetrated on us, our families and friend goes on and on.
The venerable, honorable battle flag or any that may relate to it is looked at as a racist banner, even though it was patterned after the St. Andrews and St. Patrick's crosses. It stood for honor, law, respect and defiance. Most do not know that many thousands possibly as many as a million blacks WILLINGLY fought for that flag, side by side with their white brethren.
Today were are at a precipice waiting for that certain trigger that will once again pit brother against brother. And it seems that we have a Government that is willing to enact Total War on a group of people that only want to exercise their God given rights to create a government they can live with.

Coming To America

http://freenorthcarolina.blogspot.com/2014/05/rebel-militia.html

These scenes will soon be a part of the American history. If the current style of government does not change for the better and soon, there will be a flash point that will ignite the hearts and spirit of the American Rebels. Think the Bundy Ranch was a big thing? I predict the next encounter will have a bloody out come and segue to a bloody future. We are lied to, stolen from, shot, beaten, ignored and have had our freedoms quashed in every way imaginable and it cannot go on. We actually cannot take a piss with out violating some kind of law. We are regulated, taxed, fined, imprisoned and spied upon. We cannot make a phone call or send an email or text that is not recorded or analyzed. Our own cars, cell phones, TV's, and gaming devices send out information about us. The very ones that are supposed to protect and serve, the Police, beat and kill us with impunity.
   The government allows the country to be flooded with illegal immigrants, then allows them to utilize our social services networks and get free schooling. People from certain countries can come to American and get government loans to start a business that are not offered to you and I. And we are expected sit still and shut up. We are expected to take every thing that is shoved down our necks and ask for more, please.
And then they act all surprised when a few hundred armed folks show up at a remote desert ranch to protect and defend a rancher. Well, I believe that was just a practice run and the next encounter will not have the same outcome.

A Great Wind

Last night I went down the street to see my mother and step-father. When he and I get together you cannot get away without talking and discussing politics, knives, guns and the Civil War. So while some inane TV show was playing, he and I were talking about knives and this came into my head. I grabbed my new Varsity el cheapo fountain pen and an envelope and jotted this down. I kinda like it, maybe it'll lead to longer prose.

 " A great wind blew across the land and it carried the voice of anger and dissent.
This wind kindled the fires of rebellion and that in turn became the conflagration of revolution.
Men and women across this land dropped their books and tools and implements of peace. Their empty hands were soon filled with the arms of freedom."

It's amazing the way the human mind wanders and can do so many things at the same time. And what brought those words to my fingertips? My anger? My frustration? Or my desire?

We have used these in a failed attempt at freedom


And it seems podiums don't work for shit.


So maybe its time for these.....



 
 
 


Hone your skill, prepare your hides, be ready to take in a sudden short term boarder, just be ready.

To Much Talk

I tried to watch the morning national news and couldn't. I tried to read the national and world news on the computer and I couldn't. I am so sick of all the talk, talk, talk and not a fucking thing happens. Politicians run amuck, cities fail, retirement plans disappear, cops hand out beat downs regularly, the government (local and national)steals our money, we are imprisoned for speaking out. We suffer losses of our rights every day. And the talking goes on. No one is willing do make the changes this country needs. No one is willing to be the first to say, That's IT! I've had enough! And take the first action to start the revolution. Everyone, you, me, we are all far to complacent with our recliners and big screen TV's. Far to many are satisfied to accept their monthly check and buy another case of beer or another bag of dope. What you don't thing people receiving a government check don't buy dope with it? Wake up. The time is ripe for a separation in this country. The USA can go on living the way it is and the NEW CSA, The New USA, the Redoubt or The New what ever can return to the original constitution and bill of rights and begin a nation of truly free men and women. But someone has to stick their neck out first, be the trigger, the catalyst, the martyr. You, me, who? I think it will take a major action for anything to happen, Like a third term for this clown in office, martial law, gun confiscation or severe restriction.
I urge everyone to read the book "Unintended Consequences" and the Matt Bracken Trilogy as well as James Wesley Rawles "Patriot" series. Not only do they present triggers that seem true to life they offer many fine suggestions for anyone willing to make a change.
 Until the time comes for trigger pulling, stock your larder, your armory, your tool shed, your medical chest and your knowledge.
And one other thing, if you re not going to be a trigger puller, be ready and prepared to support those in need with sudden, deep and immediate shelter. Be ready with information, funds, transportation or first aid.
Quit listening to the talk, talk, talking and make yourself ready.

Good Ol' Abe

Who said this? Do you know?

"I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races . . . . I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong, having the superior position. I have never said anything to the contrary." (CW, Vol. III, p. 16).

If you guessed Abraham Lincoln you would be right. He was not the antislavery good guy history credits him as being. And the Democrats and Liberals want to hold him on a pedestal. Click here to read more of his political commentary from his days in the public service.
  The Liberal ride the coattails of this man? And today's Tea Partiers, home schoolers, NRA members and gun owners are called racist?

This once again proves that the Civil War was not about slavery but about states rights as defined by the Constitution. The Federal Government was sticking it's nose into a place it didn't belong. Slavery was dying out, the shipping lines had already stopped importing slaves, the rouge captains that continued the practice were hunted down, slavery was an unsound economic practice and would not continue to stand on it's own. The emancipation proclamation only freed slaves south of the Mason Dixon line. Slaves North of that line were not truly freed until well after the War was over. This horrendous War marks the true beginning of the over powerful ruling of the United States Government and continues today. There is not one aspect of our lives that is not controlled, regulated or taxed by the Feds. How long will we, as a people , put up with this usurpation of the law of the land, The Constitution for These United States?

Uncle John

I found another picture of my great, great, great uncle John McCorkle, the scout and sniper that rode with William Quantrill and the Missouri Partisan Rangers. The picture is copyrighted so the site will not let me copy the image. Here is a link to a picture of good 'ol Uncle John. My family hero, that rode under a black flag of no quarter. He and his companions adopted the black flag after Johns sister, my great, great, great aunt was killed in the infamous Kansas City Jail Collapse in which Charity McCorkle was killed. This was also the impetus for the Lawrence Kansas raid. The man body of the preceding link is from my uncle's book "Three Years With Quantrill".

A Walk In the Past

Today my step-father took me on a short driving tour of a Civil War battle field/site here in Kansas City called the Battle of Westport. We looked at several monuments and bronze placards that told the story of this fight. It is a really interesting site but needs to be developed a little further. For instance on of the markers, complete with a period correct Napolean cannon is on the grounds of the Kansas City Water Department. We walked on the grounds wear my state bretheren, on both sides shed their blood. It was a very thought provoking trip. After the battlefield we went to a nearby cemetery that has a section dedicated to the Confederate soldiers of many states that gave their lives in this battle. Here are some of the very interesting head stones I looked at today.



 The three pictures above are the Confederate memorial to all the soldiers that died at the Battle of Westport. It is topped by the stone rebel. The whole thing is over 20 feet tall.

 Yes, General Joe Shelby is buried here too. With his family around him.

 Somebody has a long memory. And a little bit of a grudge too.

 One of our honorable state leaders.

 This is the back side of Waldo Johnsons monument. It's a massive piece.


 These flags adorn the markers of all the soldiers graves. We found a few tombstones the someone had tried to chip away the Confederate flag. Truly sad.

These gents rode with my, lets see, my great, great possibly three times great uncle. The design at top center of the stones is also found on the top center of Quantrills tombstone in Higginsville. I'm going to try and find out what it means.

All in all it was a very moving day for me. Walking the grounds where people of my ilk fought and died and then looking at the graves of many of them brought many thoughts to my mind.

More info here and here. This a very good site with a ton of pictures.

Family Ties

Here's how my family rolls, I have historical cousins that rode with...Quantrill. Yep, THAT William Quantrill, one of the original bad boys of terrorism, murder and mayhem back in the 60's. The 1860's that is.
Here's the Wiki on him.

Here's one of his tombstones, this one in the Confederate Cemetery in Higginsville Missouri. This grave contains recovered stolen bones!



His group was responsible for the sacking of Lawrence Kansas and other towns and farms. He copied the tactics of the Native Americans and introduced guerilla warfare to the Civil War or rather the War of Northern Aggression. Two of his disciples are rather well know, Frank and Jesse James.

Here is another write up about this particular devil.

I don't agree with all of Bill's actions but we can learn from his tactics.
 After 5 years of warfare on the Missouri/Kansas border before the actual start of the War, Kansas and Missourians were well versed the fine art of death.
For more information on the interstate warfare that went on during 1854 to 1865 period find a copy of Jay Monaghan's book " Civil War on the Western Border 1854 to 1865". Read this book and see how many names you recognize, men that cut their military teeth on the Missouri/Kansas border war.



Here are some links to the Confederate Cemetery and Memorial in Missouri.

Here is a nice article.. http://www.richmond-dailynews.com/2013/05/higginsvilles-confederate-home-cemetery-has-strong-ray-ties/
Indecently this is the only state park in Missouri where it is legal to fly the Confederate Flag officially and that only came around a few years ago.

WWYD. What Will You Do?

I was watching Fox News this morning and then a little later on too. There was a lot of talk about the upcoming gun regs or suggestions of regs. All the shows had speakers form the left and the right of the gun issue. Both sided talked endlessly about, the hunting aspect of guns rights or the constitutional right to have them. Not a single person had the balls or the vajajay to say what the second amendment is actually for. It is to prevent an overly strong government from bending you to its will. Oh, wait we've passed that point. So tell me what are the gun owners of this country going to do when Obama writes some executive order that ban over 10 round mags, or semi auto firearms or declare us gun owners to be domestic terrorists? So tell me what will we do? Tell me what will you do? I know what I will and pledge to do. I will not go down alone. I have no club, no group, shooting buddies to back me up. When the day comes that my door is kicked in I will die along with several others. I also pledge to take action if I see confiscations or arrests of gun owners. This is the time to decide, what the fuck will you do? What will you do? The time is coming. The leftist are actively calling for our deaths, the President is wanting his hand picked group to suggest rules, laws and regs that will strengthen his position, we have an attorney general that has stated he wants to confiscate all guns, we have a media that supports every thing this government does, illegal or immoral. It doesn't matter. In the medias eyes the government is right and anyone that talks of the constitution, gun rights, or love of country is wrong and needs to be taken care of. Or taken out. They don't care which.
By the way, did you notice we had another school shooting today. It didn't result in a high body count or the death of the shooter, so it's kinda low key in the "news".
 
The second amendment has not one thing to do with hunting. It has everything to do with checking the governments actions. Thankfully it is starting to sound like the police forces, in the main, are supporting us, it is sounding like many military personnel are supporting us and the constitution. So, I guess the big question is what is the government going to do? With three percent of armed citizens and help from police officers and a lot of help from the military, we could pull of a defeat of any illegal moves the government may make. But will NATO decide to enter the fray or even Communist China? Those commies have been calling for the disarming of Americans and they are stocking up on material and have fielded a huge new aircraft carrier that I bet they are itching to use.
 In regards to the upcoming possibles, like the suggested registering of semi autos, limiting ammo, banning over 10 round mags again, tuning millions of gun owners into criminal, think about it. What will you do?

A November Suprise?

I have been a reader of Northeast Intelligence Network website for several years now. They are an investigation company that has provided information to several US agencies and the Armed Forces. They have documented Islamic schools training centers in this country and many other things that could affect our country. These guys have sources everywhere.They do not publish the information they pass to law enforcement but the stuff they do publish is very interesting. Perusing their site today I found a report from a source inside the Department Of Homeland Security (DHS). It's possible that all the ammo they have been buying is for more than training. I sure a lot of you have read or heard that there may be an incident that will keep Obama in power. I'm sure you have heard of the dirty  little circle inside DHS. All I can deduce is that there is something in the works. And it comes directly from the Oval Office.

   "My source continued, “I’ve been trying to get as much information as possible, but it’s not been easy. This is definitely a plan that has its origins at the highest levels of the White House, and seems limited to maybe a handful of the people closest to Obama. The only reason I know about this authorization order, or approval, or whatever you want to call it, is that there was a major slip up at the very upper level of DHS, and I mean the very upper level” he stated."

It seems the order has been green lighted and operations will depend on the sway of the political scene.

"It’s going hot. The plan, or whatever specific operation that was devised, is going hot, being put into motion. You’ve got to let people know that something is up, approval has been given, and unless somebody stops it, we’re going to have a staged event inside the U.S., and it’s being set up so that it gets real ugly real fast.” Obviously, I asked for clarification and more details."

And they want to target the same groups as usual, the white, christian, gun owners and radio talk show hosts.

"But the objective of the plan is that they want to portray Obama as a victim of racist hatred by the white gun owners, the people concerned about the Constitution, the people they consider fringe. They want to silence their critics, prove that talk show hosts are causing hatred, and that all gun owners are behind the recent shootings. That’s at the heart of the plan. But to understand just how insidious this is, you’ve got to understand the people who are behind it.”

You can read the full article here. Take a gander at it and consider all that has been happening lately.
I say it again, check your preps, check your ammo, check your family, friends and teams. I will be changing the daily load out of my transportation. You know, just in case. At this time I have no team or family to provide backup or help with defense. There doesn't seem to be any Threepers around here and not many people are interested in prepping based on the ad I place on Craigslist. So............

It's Coming

I have been a reader of Northeast Intelligence Network for years and I am always amazed at the information they dig up through contacts and good old intelligence work. Read this article about a conversation they had with a DHS contact. It seems "they" are further ahead in preparations than "we" are. Remember a short time ago, DHS ordered 40 million rounds of ammo? Well it sure fits in with this report. And Sheriff Arpaio should really watch back.

A civil? war, There's gold in them thar hills, Capiche?

With all the demands to pass legislation quickly, ignoring the peoples desires, violating the constitutional restriction on government and states rights some think that BHO is pushing the country to civil war. Hey, if it comes to that.........
______________________________________

Is the economy hitting you hard? Need some extra cash? Don't have a job? Do you know that gold is over 900 dollars an ounce? No wonder gold panning is being revived. Heck, dig some gravel, swish it around in a pan and wha la, you just made 900 clams! It's quite a bit more involved than that but panning is making a resurgence in this country as the times remain stagnant or, as most feel, continues to decline. As they say, there's gold in them thar hills!
______________________________________

I don't know how it has to be said, but Washington, DC can't figure the gun issue out. It took a Supreme court ruling to get the people the right to posses assembled, loaded firearms. Now that HELLER has gained their rights back the city says they can't carry them anywhere. As if the only crime that happens in DC is in the home. DC is the biggest cesspool of scumbags in the country. It's a shame that good people have to live there with the hoodlums, both uptown and downtown, and have to fight the city for the right to defend themselves.
_______________________________________

The rain finally ended yesterday and now we had a globull warming high of 78 today, in August in the Midwest. More of the same coming Saturday. Gosh I hate globull warming.
Made another batch of picante sauce today and it's MUCH better. I put up 3 quarts, 1 pint and 3 half pints of the stuff. I had a hell of a time getting 3 of the lids to "pop".
Off to the big box store o' goodies tomorrow. We'll pick up a few more storage staples there as well as some day to day groceries. With the kids gone and not much to do at my Dad's for a while it's been a long boring week. Maybe next week will shape up better.
