  1. Keep in mind this picture captured the first time Kyle was chased/knocked down, kicked in the face, stomped and hit in the head with a skateboard. He did not fire his weapon, he got up and ran again. He only fired after the 2nd and 3rd time he was knocked to the pavement by a child raping lunatic and 2 armed felons who had their weapons pointed at his head. If this isn't a cause to use lethal self-defense, I don't know what else is..... This is from testimony in court. That the mainstream press hasn't reported on for some reason....
  2. DE: So when Joe Biden calls for the rest of the world to up their production of oil but not America you know it's not about the environment it's about collapsing the American economy Tell me I'm wrong - and explain how.
  3. QE - One of the most famous "World Dictators".....😅
  4. So it doesn't occur to anyone on the left (DE) that the FACT that more fuel efficient vehicles on the road are actually bringing the use of fossil fuels lower (as demonstrated by the lower revenues being collected)? Or maybe it doesn't fit their narrative that we all need to be driving EV's? (Without the consideration of how much this move will pull from an electric grid already taxed pretty hard in many locations) AND - in case you are wondering - we are not "running out of "Fossil Fuels"..... https://www.investors.com/politics/commentary/we-are-not-running-out-of-oil-earth-produces-crude/ Ever since M. King Hubbert in the 1950s convinced a lot of people with his "peak oil" theory that production would collapse and we'd eventually exhaust our crude supplies, the clock has been running. And running. And it will continue to run for some time, as technology and new discoveries show that there's still an ocean of oil under our feet. Engineering and Technology Magazine reported this week that BP — the company that once wanted to be known as "Beyond Petroleum" rather than "British Petroleum" — is saying "the world is no longer at risk of running out of resources." "Thanks to investment into supercomputers, robotics and the use of chemicals to extract the maximum from available reservoirs, the accessible oil and gas reserves will almost double by 2050," Engineering and Technology said. A BP official told the magazine that "energy resources are plentiful. Concerns over running out of oil and gas have disappeared." Things are so good, in fact, that Engineering and Technology says "with the use of the innovative technologies, available fossil fuel resources could increase from the current 2.9 trillion barrels of oil equivalent to 4.8 trillion by 2050, which is almost twice as much as the projected global demand." That number could even reach 7.5 trillion barrels if technology and exploration techniques advance even faster. This information backs up the idea that Earth is actually an oil-producing machine. We call energy sources such as crude oil and natural gas fossil fuels based on the assumption that they are the products of decaying organisms, maybe even dinosaurs themselves. But the label is a misnomer. Research from the last decade found that hydrocarbons are synthesized abiotically. In other words, as Science magazine has reported, the "data imply that hydrocarbons are produced chemically" from carbon found in Earth's mantle. Nature magazine calls the product of this process an "unexpected bounty " of "natural gas and the building blocks of oil products." So don't feel guilty about exploiting this "bounty." There seems to be plenty to go around — and there will probably still be a lot left when technology, not hurried by government mandates and subsidies but guided by market forces, produces practical and affordable renewable energy. But for now, enjoy our cheap, abundant and efficient "fossil" fuels. OR - Invest in lithium company stocks.......(The new crude oil) https://www.forbes.com/sites/danrunkevicius/2020/12/07/as-tesla-booms-lithium-is-running-out/?sh=54355c951a44
  5. See Impartial Observer's post from 11/4
  6. In 2007 - Joe Biden explaining what happens when you pull out of a war AND WORSE - What happens when you leave billions of dollars in weapons behind......
  7. Does anyone else see the irony when the States are easily accepting federal dollars in the latest infrastructure bill they despise because the tax dollars from gasoline sales is actually down due to the higher gas mileage in the newer vehicles?
  8. It almost appears the Prosecution is now doing all he can for a mistrial. He certainly ticked off the judge. https://100percentfedup.com/judge-in-kyle-rittenhouse-case-clears-jury-shouts-at-woke-prosecutor-for-grave-constitutional-violation-video/ During Rittenhouse’s testimony this afternoon, Judge Bruce Schroeder lashed out at Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger. Rittenhouse attorney Mike Richards objected when ADA Binger questioned why the 18-year-old decided to remain silent after the Kenosha shooting incident that left two dead and one injured, hooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Before he lashed out at the inept ADA, Kenosha County Judge Bruce Schroeder paused the trial and sent the jury out of the room. “I was astonished when you began your examination by commenting on the defendant’s post-arrest silence,” Schroeder shouted. “That’s basic law. It’s been basic law in this country for 40 or 50 years,” he said, adding, “I don’t know what you’re up to.” The judge admonished Binger, “You’re an experienced trial lawyer, and this should not have been gone into.” Watch the heated exchange here: MSN – Schroeder also chastised Binger for discussing a piece of evidence that Schroeder had previously banned from being brought up at trial. Binger was attempting to question Rittenhouse about a video recorded weeks before the Kenosha shootings, The video was apparently filmed from inside a car, across the street from a CVS Pharmacy, where several hooded people could be seen rushing out and clutching items. A voice that sounds like Rittenhouse’s could be heard saying, “Bro, I wish I had my f—ing AR. I’d start shooting rounds at them. Binger had previously argued that the video showed Rittenhouse “was ready and willing to use deadly force in a situation where it was completely unjustified,” but Schroeder ruled against him, barring it from being discussed at trial. On Wednesday, Richards called the situation “ridiculous,” saying the prosecutor was ignoring the judge’s previous rulings. When Binger said Rittenhouse’s testimony opened the door to the questions, Schroeder again raised his voice. “Don’t get brazen with me!” he shouted. “I don’t want to have another issue as long as this case continues, is that clear?”
  9. Gonna be a little Nippley in Middlebury Friday night, windy with some potential rain.
  10. The President doesn't have influence on gas prices? The very people who during the Obama Administration where gas prices were up for so long said that the President doesn't control oil prices and who were silent when President Trump opened up drilling in the US and encouraged the US to become more energy-independent resulting in record low pump prices - are now begging President Biden to help. While he's considering shutting down a major supply line in Michigan. I don't think he can be this bad for the country by accident...... https://nypost.com/2021/11/08/11-senate-dems-urge-biden-to-ease-soaring-gas-prices/ Among the senators who signed were Vermont’s Patrick Leahy, Connecticut’s Richard Blumenthal and former presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren. This call for action comes after the White House admitted during a press briefing Monday that the president is considering shutting down the L5 pipeline from Michigan to Canada. Deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre admitted Monday that the Army Corps of Engineers is “preparing an environmental impact to look through this.” “This irresponsible action will hurt farmers, businesses, and families,” the letter says. “President Biden has already done enough to weaken America’s energy security and international alliances, and the consequences of terminating Line 5 would only heighten these growing challenges.” Politico reported Thursday that the Department of Energy has opened an “ongoing discussion” about the impact Line 5 would have on energy markets. White House climate adviser Gina McCarthy met with environmental groups on the matter last month where an attendee suggested a decision could occur following a vote on the trillion-dollar Build Back Better Act.
  11. Proud to see the Raiders back on their game considering the injuries this season. SF won't make the game Friday, but will definitely encourage the out-of-towners to pop into the Essenhaus before the game. It is literally walking distance to the field and worth it.
  12. However - If SF had uttered your original statement, the racist/sexist moniker from the left would certainly apply - and don't deny it. Let me surmise - She's a BLACK, FEMALE, CONSERVATIVE, brandishing a firearm (that SF is sure she is licensed in the State of Virginia to carry)
  13. What an absolute and obviously racist/sexist comment!! Oh wait - I forgot, liberals can say anything they want......
  14. Actually she is a liberal's worst nightmare. Black, conservative, woman, former Marine, gun owner. And now the Lt. Governor of Virginia. Liberal's minds are exploding.......
  15. Really? A former Marine that carries a weapon is an insecure lunatic? Now that's funny right there - I don't care who you are......😅
  16. Green Bean Casserole IS a SF household staple on Thanksgiving Day.
