Reason # 1,635,921 That I Don’t Watch The NBA

“Kerr appeared in a pre-game press conference ahead of Game 2 wearing a Vote for Our Lives shirt. The shirt is meant to convey that people should vote for representatives who will support gun control measures.

Steve Kerr explains his ‘Vote for our lives.’ Felt appropriate in the wake of the mass shooting in Virginia Beach on Friday to display his desire for gun laws. pic.twitter.com/dXEy6fI8gD

“The shirt’s a reminder that the only way we can get out of this mess is to actually vote and to vote for people who are going to be willing to create some change in our gun laws, in our country,” he said.”The March for Our Lives generation has really inspired me…Hopefully, we can create a change where we won’t have to walk around scared that we’ll get shot.”

STFU and run your ball team.

Hey Kerr, any thoughts and ideas about the gangbangers that do most of the murders in America? The guys that many pro basketball players dress like and emulate?

 

A Walk In The Woods

 

This is a post continuing the “Park” series:

Sorry, Park’s Closed

Weekend At The Park

Another Day In The Park

Sunday In The Park

My dad still lives in the house (for now) that my great grandfather bought about 1890.  Separate from that house property is a small piece of land that is wooded about a mile away.  It was fairly common back then to have a plot of woods for firewood, lumber and  hunting.

The red square is my dad’s land, and the yellow, is the pathway.  One of the downsides is that there is no direct access from the county road.  We have been using that pathway since about 1890.  Now, about five years ago, the $@#!^$@ jackasses that were leasing the land that had the pathway on it put up a gate at the county road entrance and locked it.  They also plowed up most of the pathway and were preventing access to my dad’s land.  About $5000 later in court, we had access to the pathway legally back. (Access Easement).

We used to go out to “the woods” when were kids with my dad to get firewood or dig up a tree to replant, but I hadn’t been out there for probably 25 years.  My brother on the other hand deer hunts out there every year.  Since the little piece of woods in yellow, just next to the red square, is not our property, it is not maintained by the %#@*!&@$ jackasses.  It’s not a long walk to park off the county road and walk in, but the path in through the little piece of woods was not passable.  (The court order also prohibited us from parking on the ^$$@*#^ jackass property.)

Soooooooooooooooooooo, I can stand at a firing line at the range or at my brother’s ALL-DAY-LONG, but I want to take my skills up a notch.  I wanted to set up a shooting course in the woods. (Plus it would be just dang fun!!).  Since I wanted something, I would have to do the work to get it.

This video is the “Before” shot.

I had shorts on so I did not go in too far for fear of any of about 30 plants that would result in me being very itchy.

Now, I planned on shooting the same day and brought my IView glasses and GoPro for filming, and I was planning on documenting myself working.  Well, once again I greatly overestimated my ability to do manual labor.  The work itself was not really that hard, but since it had rained the night before and the woods were so dense that no wind blew through, it was like being in a tropical rain forest.  Added to that I was wearing a hoodie with the hood up to keep the mosquito’s off.  While the mosquito’s were not a problem  I left the hoodie on just so I wouldn’t waste time swatting bugs while I was working.  After about 30 minutes, I was literally soaking wet.  I finished after about three hours of work and was in absolutely no condition to do any shooting !

The above video was the “After” shot of me driving in the next day

This is the drive from the county road to the woods:

 

I drive a small crossover and is not really made for four wheeling.  But as long as it’s dry, it should be OK to get in.  This video was the day after I cleared the path.  The video is at 2X speed to make it a little less boring.

I hauled in a weed wacker and chainsaw to do the work.

Just waiting for the next weekend to get out to the woods again !!

 

Chicago Sun Times Beclowns Self X2

More examples of the horrendously poor state of “journalism” in not just the world, but here near Chicago.

WOW !!!!! Trump’s lawyer owns a company that might have ordinance violations !!!!

“Ordinance violations.”

FUCK YOU DEMOCRATS !!!

Overwhelming evidence that the previous administration illegally spied on a presidential candidate and YOU DON’T CARE !!!!!!

FUCK YOU !

Hillary says :”We are living through a war on truth, facts and reason.”

The irony burns like a thousand suns.

FUCK YOU HILLARY !

The piss poor newspaper called the Sun Times thinks that’s a statement that’s worth printing on the front page?  Granted, They’ve been running cover for her for 25 years.

Overwhelming evidence that the previous administration illegally spied on a presidential candidate and YOU DON’T CARE !!!!!!

FUCK YOU !

Sunday Afternoon In The Park

I spent Sunday afternoon at the gun range, also known as “my brother’s backyard.”

My brother lives out in the country and one advantage is that your neighbors can have some distance.

In a couple of days when the rest of the beans are harvested, he is going to dump a few logs 200 yards out so we shoot the .223.

I started shooting before my brother set up.

This would be my first 120 rounds:

 

Good, but not great.

That’s why it’s called practice.

I do believe though had this been an actual shooting situation, I would be alive or cooking whatever I shot for dinner.

And after all the practice, we get to have the real fun.  Old style shoot out:

Next time we are going to cheat and shoot from the 2o’ line

 

 

 

Hilarity and Irony Abound !!!!!

Animal rights group says drone shot down

A remote-controlled aircraft owned by an animal rights group was reportedly shot down near Broxton Bridge Plantation Sunday near Ehrhardt, S.C.

Steve Hindi, president of SHARK (SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness), said his group was preparing to launch its Mikrokopter drone to video what he called a live pigeon shoot on Sunday when law enforcement officers and an attorney claiming to represent the privately-owned plantation near Ehrhardt tried to stop the aircraft from flying.

“It didn’t work; what SHARK was doing was perfectly legal,” Hindi said in a news release. “Once they knew nothing was going to stop us, the shooting stopped and the cars lined up to leave.”

He said the animal rights group decided to send the drone up anyway.

“Seconds after it hit the air, numerous shots rang out,” Hindi said in the release. “As an act of revenge for us shutting down the pigeon slaughter, they had shot down our copter.”

OH CRIKEYS !!!!!

You put up a small flying object at a place where there are people with guns shooting at small flying objects………….

According to the report, Hindi told the responding deputy the group’s remote-controlled aircraft “was hovering over U.S. 601 when he heard a shot come from the wood line. The shot sounded to him that it was of small caliber.”

The incident report went on to state that “once shot, the helicopter lost lift and crash landed on the roadway of U.S. 601.”

Story starts to sound fishy now:

In the first quote, “numerous shots rang out”

Second quote, “they heard A shot, and it sounded like small caliber”

Hmmm.

Also, what was the timeline between when ” law enforcement officers and an attorney…” were there and when “The deputy noted in the report that he was unable to speak to anyone at Broxton Bridge Plantation following the incident.”

I find it strange that law enforcement wouldn’t have been there the entire time.

AHA !

A video !!

http://www2.wspa.com/news/2012/feb/14/2/sc-animal-rights-group-video-aircraft-shot-down-ar-3230154/

Well, it looks like Mr. Hindi’s group are lying.

“Second after it hit the air, numerous shots rang out…”  In fact it was over 30 seconds.

“was hoovering over US 601…”  I think the video shows that it was encroaching on private property.

The “S.H.A.R.K.” idiots need to get a life.

Count the number of animals that get KILLED AND EATEN everyday.

For just Wisconsin alone, almost 45,000 (known) deer killed by motor vehicles:

I don’t think that it’s an illogical step to jump to the conclusion that this group are “Leftists” and most likely EXTREME leftists.

I can only imagine the high pitched squeals from THEM if either a private group or even a government agency flew a drone to observe their  legal activity on private property.

I also have to add that it’s not too bad of shooting to be able to hit a small, flying object from the ground in dense wood cover with a small caliber rifle !!
