  1. Reggie Love departed AF1 soon after POTUS,
    apparently a guest for the weekend.

    Another Bible verse seen on a car license plate during my morning commute:

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalms%2037&version=NIV

    Mmm. Last week it was Proverbs 3 and Johnny Cash’s song “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” playing through my head all day long. Now Psalms 37. Wow.

      PG County never had any shows anyway, that I was aware of. . . ‘s why we always go out to Chantilly, when the Dulles Show is happening (every couple of months)

    This article means nothing. Nothing will change. Not one damn thing; they’ll still shill for Obama.

    VA Pizza Shop Offers 15% Discount to Anyone Who Brings in a Gun or Concealed Carry Permit

    If I ever make it back down to VA Beach, I’ll stop by this place. One of our local t.v. stations, that is more conservative than the other two, had a positive report on this place.

    University of Colorado’s Advice on How to Avoid Being Raped

    http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/340960/university-colorados-advice-how-avoid-being-raped-charles-c-w-cooke

    I can’t believe how stupid this advice is. These really anger me:

    “If your life is in danger, passive resistance may be your best defense.”

    “Tell your attacker that you have a disease or are menstruating.”

    “Vomiting or urinating may also convince the attacker to leave you alone.”

    Passive resistance?! Really?!!!! UGH!

    • This is just shameful. This is clearly predicated on all would-be attackers at UC-Boulder being high on weed and unable to be a decent threat. I don’t know what’s wrong with this state.

    • Bob says:

      And yet another Democrat offers some helpful advice to women who are about to be raped: Try Judo.

      These guys make Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock look downright brilliant by comparison.

    • Knight4GFC says:

      The audacity to proclaim to the world your lack of commen sense and stupidity in an authoritative manner, is just… beyond me. After such a show of little to no IQ, you would think they would be ashamed of themselves. Wow…

    Colorado Dem On Why Women Don’t Need Guns: You May “Feel Like You’re Going To Be Raped, When You May Actually Not Be”…

    “…that’s why we have call boxes, that’s why we have safe zones, that’s why we have the whistles…” Like call boxes, safe zones and whistles are going to prevent or stop rape. What the he!! has this idiot been smoking?

    • Coyote says:

      There are some alternatives for sane, concerned women who are trapped in liberal *gun free* zones:

      1) Raid wasp spray in a can. Aim for the face and eyes of an attacker. It’s brutal and nasty. Keep cans by the back door and front door and anywhere else you want.
      2) Stun gun
      3) Pepper spray

      • barnslayer says:

        All of the above will get you arrested in NYC. Self defense by the serfs is illegal.

        • Coyote says:

          no way. Pepper spray? Illegal? Stun gun too? no way. I don’t believe you.

          • barnslayer says:

            Stun guns are illegal in all of NY state. Pepper spray is legal in NYC but only some formulations and must be purchased from an authorized dealer (like a firearm). Spray someone in the face with bug spray and you’d better have a good reason for having the bug spray. You will get charged with possession of a noxious substance. You also cannot carry a pocket knife which:
            1- has a blade 4″ or longer
            2-can be opened with one hand and lock open
            3- is dangerous (I sh&t you not… it’s in the code)

          • You know, I’ve heard the thing about the wasp spray, but I’m not so sure it’s effective. Two years ago I was on a ladder hitting a nest in the siding of my house with the stuff, and a gust of wind knocked the stream right back in my eyes. I scrambled down the ladder and went to wash it out of my eyes, assuming I was probably going to go blind, but… nothing. It didn’t even sting. Maybe that one is an urban legend? I would go with pepper spray, personally.

    Missouri GOP Rep. Turns the Tables on Dems: Introduces Bill That Makes Proposing Gun Control Laws a Felony

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/02/19/missouri-gop-rep-turns-the-tables-on-dems-introduces-bill-that-makes-proposing-gun-control-laws-a-felony/

    • gfcinthatorder says:

      Great,
      Now if we could get a bill out there that would pass into law
      1) any person interested in running for the potus would have to pro idea us with proof of citizenship. I.E. original birth records, place of birth…. etc
      2) take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.
      3) transparency of collegiate records, places of travel, etc.
      4) not give away our top secret information.
      5) not be a part of any form of Treason to our Goverment
      6) …………etc

      Ah but we already have those laws in place!
      Oh well who cares!

      • Humph! Who needs laws anyway? The good wouldn’t break um and the bad will anyway! Sounds like a swim win situation, for the bad guy! Especially when our own leaders won’t enforce them! Unless your a conservative true Christian of course! :(
