Invictus
BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.
“Live free or die. Death is not the worst of evils.” - General John Stark.

It appears that the murder rate inside prisons is ten times higher than that outside prisons. It must be due to all those Kalashnikov rifles that are issued to prisoners upon their incarceration. Jeff Cooper
To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.-Richard Henry Lee

If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim. Jeff Cooper Colonial Cooper had some good ones. I sold him a Rifle once. A Steyr Scout in .376 Steyr Caliber. I thought it odd that Steyr didn’t gift him one.

I can't believe I almost missed this!! the AR15 is a soulless weapon for feckless people. I am a 75 year old life long Republican. Last week I early voted for Biden, sometime when you hire some one they don't work out, that's the way I look at Trump. As I said I voted Republican far more than democrat. Just couldn’t vote for this guy. Trump fought against the vaccine because he knew that's what his base of dumbasses were easiest to be hoodwinked on. Joe has been working to save those dumbasses, that I hate to say. No, Biden is clearing up the chaos caused by Trump. You guys are comical in your fear of Obama. He's not gonna go after your guns. The Dems have learned their lesson on that one. No, I voted against the incumbent Biden is a mush-brained geriatric. I agree. Trump is worse. Where are the moderators? Because I don`t like trump does not make me anything other than anti trump. Being anti trump does not make me anti Republican. Getting vaccinated is not a political issue, or a freedoms issue, it is a public health issue. I consider anyone that is refusing the vaccine as stupid. It’s free insurance against a potentially fatal disease. [bleep] trump, all that needs be said I don't think either Trump nor DeSantis is the best choice. I'm kind of liking Nikki Haley. After all these years I can pick a phony pretty easily, and the biggest one so far is Donald Duck. He thinks more of his ego than his country, can't accept losing, even when told so my his inner circle and the courts. Thinks the Constitution is for others, not him, why else would he encourage a Insurrection and make such a damning statement about the safety of his Vice. The guy is a looser, will do what I can to see anyone else win in 24, ANYONE !!! Trump has convinced me his moral foundations are flexible enough to be non-existent. A liar who is telling you what you want to hear is still a larr.
