First to start, I'm a veteran. I served in the US Army from 2003 to 2006 and spent time deployed in Iraq. So I've fought for the flag, defended it, and understand its meaning very well. So don't try to pull any crap about me not understanding what the flag stands for. I'm appalled...

Here we have a united front of our NFL Teams protesting against this disgraceful nation of racists. I seriously hope the NFL tanks and these entitled SOB's get to work a real job at a real wage and see how they like that. About 15 teams participated with owner support. Check out the link, has...

During the election season last summer and continuing into today trump and his supporters have rallied around one salient point when it came to his opponent. That she was a criminal and should be in jail. Lock her up. All of his supporters and surrogates led the battle cry. They included claims of using a private server and email account for government business thereby subjecting classified or essential...

First, to avoid drive by posts, see sig for disclaimers... Unless you live under a frigging rock you know that yesterday N.Korea declared that they WILL hit the US with a nuclear weapon as soon as they are capable. They did this at the UN. You probably also know that the protest that began last NFL season continued...

So Trump has attacked athletes who are using their 1st amendment right to protest and his followers have followed suit. What did he have to say about this when Colin Kaepernick did this during the 2016 season? Trump has attacked military vets, which in essence is disrespecting America. Ghazala Khan stood silently next to...

The minute Trump dropped those Tweets and Roger Goddell replied I knew this whole thing would blow up... and in the best way possible. Once Steph Curry, and Lebron replied.. then all the NFL owners as well... IT WAS GLORIOUS!!!! Trump was right.. he will unify this country. The best way to unify people, is...

I am not looking to discuss the politics involved here because I am simply wanting to exercise my right to free speech to maximum effect. Regardless of political position I don't want ANY of it in my sports. Sports are my escape from politics or at least they used to be. I am already boycotting all things NFL this season. I haven't watched a game and won't...

Not much information yet, but there has been another shooting at a church in Tennesee. What a horrible incident in what is usually a peaceful place to gather!

Footnote: This thread isn't about which brands are better, just what you use and why. Time for CPL renewal again so Ive been at the range and doing some studying.

Last month a bulletin was issued by the Joint Regional Intelligence Center, regarding preparing California for a nuclear attack from N. Korea. I know Kim would be insane to start a war with the U.S. and unfortunately we all know he is insane. Things have ramped up since this was issued, and Im concerned that our President is pushing Kims buttons. Kim has...

Ri Yong-ho's comments to the General Assembly on Saturday mimicked Mr Trump's remarks at the UN on Tuesday, when he called North Korean leader Kim Jong-un a "rocket man on a suicide mission". Mr Ri said that "insults" by Mr Trump were an "irreversible mistake making it inevitable" that North Korean rockets would hit the US mainland. The US president, the foreign minister...

I'm someone who enjoys watching football, but with the cowardly stance that the NFL has taken allowing a platform for an anti-American, self hatred cultural change, I will temporarily and completely refrain from "anything" football until they get back to their senses. This to me is an easy decision,...

Was looking through some old images and thought this one was interesting. The right-looking angle, the rustiness, the regularity. Doesn't look a lot like any of the other rocks around it. Rocks, probably, but still interesting:
