Officer Down

Another Plague

I can feel sorry for the families of idiots who use drugs, not so much for the users. And it looks like there is going to be a lot more heartache for those families as dealers are cutting heroin with another drug - elephant sedatives. Heroin is a downer, I can only imagine what another powerful sedative will do in conjunction with a shot of horse.

Sweet dreams baby, go to sleep in the nice pretty box.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A drug used to sedate elephants and other large animals, 100 times as potent as the fentanyl already escalating the country’s heroin troubles, is suspected in spates of overdoses in several states, where authorities say they’ve found it mixed with or passed off as heroin.

The appearance of carfentanil, one of the most potent opioids known to investigators, adds another twist to the fight against painkillers in a country already awash in heroin and fentanyl cases.

Each time authorities start to get a handle on one type of drug, another seems to pop up, said Joseph Pinjuh, chief of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force and narcotics unit for the U.S. attorney in Cleveland.

“You feel like a kid with his finger in the dike, you know?” he said. “We’re running out of fingers.”

We need to enact laws like the Philippines did - just shoot the dealers wherever you find them. They did 300 last month alone.

Russian Navy Celebrates New Ships, US Navy Celebrates Sodomites

Russia is quietly rebuilding its navy. Evidences are their new nuclear subs and other surface vessels that are being built or have already become operational, like this submarine:

The Russian Navy’s first Project-885 Yasen-class nuclear-powered guided-missile submarine, K-329 Severodvinsk, is set to deploy on its first combat training mission.

The new submarine recently completed operational testing after being accepted into service in June 2014. Prior to that, the boat had been undergoing pre-delivery sea trials since September 2011.

[...]Severodvinsk and her more advanced Project-885M sister ships are capable vessels. “We’ll be facing tough potential opponents. One only has to look at the Severodvinsk, Russia’s version of a [nuclear guided missile submarine] (SSGN). I am so impressed with this ship that I had Carderock build a model from unclassified data.” Rear Adm. Dave Johnson, Naval Sea Systems Command’s (NAVSEA) program executive officer (PEO) submarines said during the 2014 Naval Submarine League’s symposium in Falls Church, Va. “The rest of the world’s undersea capability never stands still.”

The Russians are also introducing a new frigate into their naval forces.

The first in a new class of Russian guided missile frigate arrived on Thursday to Sevastopol marking the first time the Black Sea Fleet has seen a new blue water warship since the end of the Cold War.

The Project 11356-class Admiral Grigorovich arrived in Crimea, the first of several new surface ships the Russian Navy intends to base in the Black Sea.

“This is the first vessel for distant water operation, which the Black Sea Fleet has received over the past 35 years,” fleet spokesman Vyacheslav Trukhachyov told the TASS news service.

The 4,000-ton frigate delivered to the Russian Navy in March and is the first of a planned class of six based in the Black Sea.

Of course the US has built the incredibly expensive (over $3b each) Zumwalt class destroyer (seriously, we used to build aircraft carriers for less), which is of yet an unproven design, but two new LCS littoral combat ships, the USS Milwaukee and the USS Fort Worth, both suffered mechanical failures and had to be towed for repairs.

But never fear, the Navy has decided that in this time of world unease the best way to prepare our warriors for battle is to name ships after sodomites. The USS Harvey Milk is a vessel planned for construction that will be named after a man who was sodomizing minors and shot to death. (H/T iOTW)

This is our new navy that sends sailors "poorly led and unprepared" into dangerous waters on ships that may or may not be combat capable. God help us.

My Triumph

It was a battle royale, a grueling, tempestuous affair that tested me to my uttermost limits.

But I won.

I killed that stinking bat.

With a pillow.

It was a wild, brutal affair against a nimble, fast moving foe.

Again and again and again I swung my foam-filled Excalibur, knocking the beast down twice but twice he rose again to rejoin me in fierce aerial combat. Swooping and soaring from kitchen to dining room and back again. Mocking me as he evaded a dazzling blizzard of death dealing fabric.

Yea, he rose again twice, but not thrice and I was able to end him. First a series of devastating pillow jabs, thrusts and blows artfully delivered, then a dining room chair leg for the coup de grace and he was done. No flaming Viking vessel accompanied him to Valhalla; his journey across the River Styx was guided by Moen - the porcelain ferryman.

I fought all alone, abandoned ... my wife having fled the field of honor in terror and locking herself in the bathroom.

Still, I emerged victorious.

My arm is killing me.

Charges Dropped, Cops Still Sue

From NBC News:

Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby may have dropped criminal charges against the remaining officers in the Freddie Gray trial, but she remains entrenched in a legal battle in civil court.

Five of the six officers charged for the death of Gray are suing Mosby, as well as Maj. Samuel Cogen of the Baltimore Sheriff's Office, in civil court for a gamut of causes.

In several lawsuits filed earlier this year, Officers William Porter, Edward Nero, Garrett Miller, Lt. Brian Rice, and Sgt. Alicia White alleged defamation, false arrest, false imprisonment, and violation of constitutional rights, among others.

This reminds me of the Duke lacrosse players who sued the university and the district attorney, Mike Nifong, for that screwed up rape case. I hope Ms. Mosby suffers the same fate.

Go get 'em guys.

Clinton Foundation Under Investgation

Quite frankly, I am somewhat surprised that Obama gave the go ahead to the IRS. Then again, maybe I shouldn't be as Obama is just as treacherous as Hillary and a better liar.

Whatever. This is long overdue. I am particularly interested in Bill's $500K speakers fee furnished by a Russian bank and a two million dollar payoff  to the Clinton Foundation that allowed the Russians to purchase the company that controls 20% of the US uranium production. Hillary's State Dept. okayed the sale after these funds were safely stashed  under the Clinton mattress.

From the Daily Caller:

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen referred congressional charges of corrupt Clinton Foundation “pay-to-play” activities to his tax agency’s exempt operations office for investigation, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

The request to investigate the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation on charges of “public corruption” was made in a July 15 letter by 64 House Republicans to the IRS, FBI and Federal Trade Commission (FTC). They charged the foundation is “lawless.”

The initiative is being led by Rep. Marsha Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican who serves as the vice chairwoman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, which oversees FTC. The FTC regulates public charities alongside the IRS.

The lawmakers charged the Clinton Foundation is a “lawless ‘pay-to-play’ enterprise that has been operating under a cloak of philanthropy for years and should be investigated.”

More from Breitbret:

The Democrats’ newfound paranoia about Russian influence on American affairs was certainly nowhere to be found when Hillary Clinton was cheerfully selling them a huge chunk of America’s uranium stockpile, right after a Russian bank paid Bill Clinton $500,000 for a speech.

The Uranium One story is among the incidents detailed in Peter Schweizer’s Clinton Cash. A quick recap: Uranium One was originally a Canadian company, bought out by Russia’s state atomic energy agency, Rosatom.

What Does Trump Know?

Donald Trump is not the reckless, shoot from the lip guy that the media wants us to think. You don't amass a fortune - and keep it - by doing stupid things. So when Trump says that Russia should locate and release the 30,000 missing emails from Hillary's server ... I wonder, just what does he know?

From the NY Post:

Donald Trump on Wednesday called on the Russians to hunt down and release Hillary Clinton’s missing e-mails — an extraordinary move that led to charges he was encouraging a foreign power to meddle in US politics.

“Russia, if you are listening, I hope you are able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” he said of the messages Clinton didn’t turn over to the State Department when she left office.

“I think you would probably be rewarded mightily by our press,” he said, adding the trove would likely contain “some beauties.”

Germany Starts To Wake Up

Armed police officers have launched a raid on a mosque and several homes belonging to a group believed to be radicalising Muslims in Germany.

Apartments belonging to eight board members of the radical German-speaking Islamic group DIK were searched by officers in Hildesheim, Lower Saxony.

It comes as part of a crackdown on the group, which is thought to have been encouraging people to travel to Syria and Iraq to join ISIS.

The group ran sermons, seminars and lectures entitled 'the hatred of infidels', according to German media.

BERLIN — Bavarian officials on Thursday pledged to hire hundreds of extra police officers and urged tougher background checks on asylum-seekers as they presented an anti-terror plan following four deadly attacks in the country in a week.

Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said his state — where three of the four attacks took place — would hire some 2,000 additional police officers by 2020, improve police officers’ equipment and create new offices to fight Muslim extremism and cybercrime.

He also called for tougher background checks on asylum-seekers and new strategies to deport criminal asylum-seekers more easily. Three of the four attacks were committed by asylum-seekers.

The Russians Ate Hillary's Homework

In a CNN interview with internet master leaker Julian Assange, it is reported that there are even  more election leaks in the offing. Democrats are being advised to tighten their convention's lugnuts.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange said Tuesday his whistleblowing website might release "a lot more material" relevant to the US electoral campaign.
Assange was speaking in a CNN interview following the release of nearly 20,000 emails stolen from the Democratic National Committee by suspected Russian hackers.

However, Assange refused to confirm or deny a Russian origin for the mass email leak, saying Wikileaks tries to create ambiguity to protect all its sources.

Assange also criticizes Hillary Clinton regarding her penchant for avoiding responsibility.

Hillary blames everything and everyone else for her cock ups. Instead of placing the blame for the Lewinsky affair on her husband's dick,she blamed mystical evil radical right wing extremists. For the murder of US Ambassador Stephens in Benghazi, she blamed a film maker that no one ever heard of much less saw the anti-Islamic film he produced..

And she's doing it again. She blames those pesky rooskies for the 20,000 hacked DNC emails that are humiliating the Democrats.

From CNN:

Speaking from the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where he faces extradition over sexual assault allegations, Assange told CNN that Democratic Party officials were using the specter of Russian involvement to distract from the content of the emails, which have had tumultuous affect on the party at the start of its national convention, where it is expected to make Hillary Clinton its presidential nominee.

"It raises questions about the natural instincts of Clinton that when confronted with a serious domestic political scandal, she tries to blame the Russians, blame the Chinese, et cetera," Assange told CNN.

"Because if she does that while in government, it could lead to problems," he added.

We've already got the problems she created Bucko; she's going to create more.

Satan Is Her Master

Lies, lies and more lies. Satan, the Father of All Lies, is very proud of his new BFF, the Democratic Party.

Hillary Clinton, Satan's prom queen, is sprucing herself up for her coronation as the Demon Queen of America.

Our nation's founders realized the dangerous path they had set upon when establishing a republic and made the 2nd Amendment one of the bedrock principles of the Constitution. Without the force of arms, free men cannot dissuade a tyrant from imposing his will. Therefore to those who would enslave us, the 2nd Amendment has to go.

The latest video from Project Veritas shows Mary Bayer, a former Democratic delegate and a volunteer organizer for Hillary Clinton’s campaign, admitting that the party is using “common sense” gun control to trick America into supporting a ban on all firearms and effectively repealing the Second Amendment.

[...]“Right,” Bayer agreed. “You got to say you want ‘common sense gun legislation.’ … you say you want to ban guns altogether, that’s just going to piss everybody off.”

“You have to take that sort of moderate, ‘we just want to have common sense legislation so our children are safe!’ You say shit like that, and then people will buy into it.”

Additionally, Bayer responded, “for sure,” when asked if Hillary would support and press a full ban of firearms.

You Can Have My Appendix When You Pry It From My Cold...

Scientists are finally getting a sense of what the human appendix does besides leaving scars when removed.

The appendix has long had a reputation as a redundant organ with no real function. Doctors often remove it even in mild cases of appendicitis to prevent future infection and rupture, which may not always be necessary. But new research on the way innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) protect against infection in people with compromised immune systems may redeem this misunderstood organ.

[...]While the appendix is not required for digestive functions in humans, Belz tells mental_floss, “It does house symbiotic bacteria proposed by Randal Bollinger and Bill Parker at Duke University to be important for overall gut health, but particularly when we get a gut infection resulting in diarrhea.”

Infections of this kind clear the gut not only of fluids and nutrients but also good bacteria. Their research suggests that those ILCs housed in the appendix may be there as a reserve to repopulate the gut with good bacteria after a gut infection.

See? God knows what He is doing even if we don't.

Coming To America And Why I Carry

Trump is right, halt all Islamic immigration into the U.S. until they sort themselves out - which they haven't been able to do in 1400 years. If they're not killing nonbelievers, they're killing each other.

This morning a Catholic priest was beheaded by Muslims in Normandy, France.

An 86-year-old priest has been 'beheaded' by two ISIS knifemen who cut his throat after bursting into a French church and taking nuns and worshippers hostage before being shot dead by police.

Five people including the priest, two nuns and two parishioners were held by assailants who raided the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray near Rouen in Normandy at 9am.

The clergyman, named as Jacques Hamel, is believed to have been beheaded during the attack while another hostage is fighting for life in hospital.

The two attackers were 'neutralised' by marksmen as they emerged from the building, which is now being searched for explosives. French president Francois Hollande said the men 'claimed to be from' ISIS.

There were reports the attackers shouted 'Daesh' – an alternative name for ISIS often used by the French government – as they ran into the church while at least one of the men was dressed in Islamic clothing.

It comes as it emerged that the building was one of a number of Catholic churches on a terrorist 'hit list' found on a suspected ISIS extremist last April.

It's only a matter of time before we see these bloody-minded savages perform the same deeds in our schools, churches, cities, towns and villages. They will attack the most vulnerable segments of our population and yet the Obama administration is letting thousands of possible terrorists into the country. This is one of the reasons I always carry when I attend a religious service. Hell, I always leave the house armed.

The primary reason for the existence of government is to promote a peaceful coexistence with other citizens and to protect us from foreign incursions. Our government and the governments of Europe have turned their backs on this responsibility. The 2nd Amendment enables us to do what the government now refuses to do.

When do we wake up and smell the felafels?

She's Coming Back For The Martha Washington Steak Knives

Now we know why she's running for President.

Actually, the Clintons returned or paid for about $114,000 worth of property that they appropriated from the White House.

From the ABC News Way Back Machine:

Former President Clinton and his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, have sent $28,000 worth of household goods back to Washington after questions arose over whether the items were intended as personal gifts or donations to the White House.

[...]After they were criticized for taking $190,000 worth of china, flatware, rugs, televisions, sofas and other gifts with them when they left, the Clintons announced last week that they would pay for $86,000 worth of gifts, or nearly half the amount.

Their latest decision to send back $28,000 in gifts brings to $114,000 the value of items the Clintons have either decided to pay for or return.

The government is still negotiating for the return of several cases of toilet paper and a kotex dispenser.

Obama's Brother Will Vote For Trump

From the NY Post:President Obama’s Kenyan half-brother wants to make America great again — so he’s voting for Donald Trump.

“I like Donald Trump because he speaks from the heart,” Malik Obama told The Post from his home in the rural village of Kogelo. “Make America Great Again is a great slogan. I would like to meet him.”

Obama, 58, a longtime Democrat, said his “deep disappointment” in his brother Barack’s administration has led him to recently switch allegiance to “the party of Lincoln.”

The last straw, he said, came earlier this month when FBI Director James Comey recommended not prosecuting Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton over her use of a private e-mail servers while secretary of state.
