Time to come out of Hibernation...

Think I will buy and wear a kilt. Not that I have the legs for it, but I feel free, freedom and Liberty under the LORD.

As I have been analyzing my coming back to fuller strength and will, it goes along with the slowing down of my heart rate. My cousin noticed my resting heart rate is close to closing all systems down, I normally just fall asleep until Spring shows up, but I do remember my doctor telling me that he was giving me a medicine that would slow my heart rate and he didn't want it to shut down completely. Maybe I will have to look into getting that changed soon. Appointment is in March with him.

Now that the world is completely under the spell of the President's charm and promise -- I expect the total meltdown much sooner than later.

My list of things to do since I am up and awake: reload all my brass, clean the garage, cut the lawn, start hunting moles, keep my wife smiling, prep the garden.

Normal items will remain: shoot straight, stay armed and alert, constant prayer and daily devotions and thanks to the LORD. Y'all be good out there. Any advice on footwear, combat gaiters, proper headgear for balding kilted man -- is very welcome.

Armed? why yes, I have two, too...

If you are a person of law abiding sanity and not a gun owner nor worried about your government - then you are part of my problem. You will likely say, what does anyone need such a firearm for and so many rounds of ammunition? Looking at the civilian population that you think you represent. But the question should be asked of your armed forces - which includes the police and regulatory enforcers.

But you don't ask, although the 2nd Amendment is all about all of us, you won't ask.

So why do the armed forces, the police, the regulatory enforcers need all those weapons and ammunition? Well, to do their job poorly.  Ruby Ridge, Waco, Texas, are just two examples and this fine group of excesses done in the name of the government gone so wrong. But then you could have looked at what happens when a community of law enforcement officers think they are being hunted by one of their own-rejected. Don't deliver newspapers in the early morning, ladies.

Objective opinion

Watching the MSM (CNN) cover religion in the choice of a new Pope, is like watching the President and Vice President tell you which firearms would be better for less Gun Violence.

So I went to support the Pro-2nd Amendment

At the rally, at the Capital in Olympia, Washington. Since I have nothing better to do and I was free to attend. I went and parked and walked to the campus.

Very few people, because it was Friday, a casual work day, no one in Washington State is going to miss work dressed down for a demonstration... 

There was a large group of State Patrol officers, but that is normal while the government is working. The host stood up, the microphone worked and he got the rally started and thanked the right people. Then he got to the meat of the subject the 2nd Amendment being under attack and what we had to do about it. When he finished I took the microphone and told the story from my side and what I saw, what  I believed and I did mention being part of Appleseed and teaching safe marksmanship and our American heritage. I must have said many of the right things, people thanked me for what I said (no, I have little idea what came out of my mouth, but it was true) and several wanted more information about Appleseed shoots, where to find more information and made me wonder why I didn't have more business cards or trifolds to pass out.  

 
As others got up to speak I noticed much anti-the Presidents, the current one, the latest gripe from the news coverage or failure to cover. Lots of anger, lots of passion and lots of fumbling and grumbling.  That stuff doesn't grow without fertilizer and water - wherever it comes from. Still a mostly positive message to get with your representatives and act on our rights. Two Legislators, Elizabeths both, came and talked to us, one had some solid ideas for protecting the children in schools. Nice of them to come and speak during their lunch recess.

I did go back up to cover the positive ideas and things one could do as a shooter, a responsible gun owner, and I covered the third safety rule.  They all need to meet and talk politely, logically and sanely with the opposition, that only seems to know what they fear, not why they fear it. There were lots of television crews and reporters, the crowd didn't look like it got to five hundred total, but the expectations had been fifteen hundred.

I am very happy that I went, met some great people, was able to present the world from my point of view and promote safe shooting, safety and Appleseed. Another great day to be an American, volunteer Rifleman.

Hey, it is Cold outside, the frost would be on the...

pumpkin, but we ate those for Christmas.

Today is totally unremarkable, except I have some new cool stuff to wear for Appleseed, and it fits, now if I can get slim and good lookin' I could have a job modeling. 

I am off to Olympia, Washington, for a Pro-2nd Amendment Rally.  A smaller repeat of the 19th of
January, that was on a three day weekend, and today is a work day, although it is dress casual day.

I did mention that it is cold? Not that cold.

I am the Gun Owner

 I learned Gun Control in Junior High School Rifle Club: Safety and Marksmanship, 1962.

I study History, read widely and have a lifelong love of libraries.

I go to church and I go to the firing range.

I vote in every election and write to elected officials and editors.

I have my Grandfather’s revolver and my Father’s rifle and his war trophies.

I served the United States of America in Korea, Germany, Vietnam, Panama, Saudi Arabia and Iraq.

I have a license to Carry Concealed a pistol.

I own four pistols with multiple magazines for each.

I own four rifles with extra clips and lots of brass and ammunition.

I am responsible and I expect better of everyone.

I have read the Constitution and have memorized the 2^nd Amendment, I know what full citizenship means.

Rifleman William Earl Dungey, I AM A Gun Owner

Heard it on Maimed Stream Media

So it must be true.

They mentioned that it would lead to insurrection if the government came out with a gun ban.

Hmm, don't think that was what was happening. I wrote the Constitution of the United States of America, and the 2nd Amendment was vital to the health of a trust between government and the governed. Vital.

The American People have not violated that trust, they stand ready to defend their free state. The government has violated it by infringing on the right of the People to keep and bear arms. So the government seems to be in the wrong.

There is no right granted by the 2nd Amendment, there is one mentioned, but the right was there before there was a United States of America under this Constitution, I know, I wrote it.

So, no insurrection needed, just a cleaning up of the paper trail of the government infringing on the right of the People, the ones that designed the government and need to trust it. Have at it, and by the way, someone send the Main Stream Media to school - most of them are as clueless as that English fellow on CNN. He never studied American History, he was still wondering how King James was bounced from office.

I still need a firing pin for the above Stevens Model 414 Armory Model, thank you very much.
