Anybody who has a pulse can understand what the Trump bandwagon is all about. If you have ever even glanced at your income tax returns you should have an inkling of what it costs in terms of working hours to finance reckless tax-and-spend financial domination that our government hands us, without apology. If you have been around long enough, you probably recall times that were less invasive into your wallet, and it all becomes plain to you whenever you look at the taxes that show up at the bottom of every bill for everything you buy. Perhaps you start wondering why no one has ever done anything about run-abroad jobs that are even encouraged by law to head for foreign companies. Maybe you have watched U.S. spawned technology being handed over to third world countries so they can easily compete and beat us at our own game. Now even corporate headquarters are heading over seas in the corporate version of legalized tax evasion. Have you ever become upset over the new urban warfare from foreign sources? Does it make you want to have someone do something effective about it? You have the country literally imploding before our eyes, with government officials turning a blind eye, or even participating in it as it runs rampant. Do you take any note of the almost daily episodes of legislators involved in corruption and graft? Does that bother you? Have you reached the point where you are starting to feel helpless? Is it becoming clear to you that we are now working for the government instead of that system serving us? Well, I think most of the country has taken note of the impending demise of this country and are basically shouting out their window, "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" That is what explains Trump. Every election comes down to Tweedle-Dee vs. Tweedle-Dum. It is always choices between career politicians whose only differences are which one can dig up the most dirt on the other. You always have to hold your nose and vote for the lesser of two evils. Well this election is different. There is a candidate that is not part of the political status quo. This guy comes from outside the establishment and is prepared to do open battle with them (something we all wish we had the time and resources to do ourselves). Yup, he stumbles and bumbles his way along because he has not been trained by the party hacks. He sometimes make us wonder if maybe he is a bit too much. But the bottom line is that he is putting muscle to the issues that bother us daily. Desperation drives us to support someone that will take on the system and break the cycle, if for no other reason than a protest vote to let the politicians of the country understand that we really are mad as hell and unwilling to passively take it anymore. This will be the "shake-up vote" that sends messages that the country's citizens are getting restless and are ready for change and for heads to roll. If you are a business-as-usual politician, take note. Someone is coming for you and your world may never be the same (or as comfortable). Take time to understand what explains a Trump candidacy. Love him or hate him, it would be prudent to understand exactly where he is coming from and why he resonates with such a huge quantity of people.

Lets see some of the sign that gets you all excited about next season. I've got a ton of pics like this, but never had any use for them other than gawking over myself. Found this one today that got me thinking about the topic. The view from the front isn't too uncommon here, but the wrap-around 2'nd pic got me all buzzed up, and it was almost identical on the other side!

Didn't have anything to do today so I took Jenny skinny dippin' down at one of my favorite watering holes! She was dripping wet before I even got started with her. She just loves hanging out in nature with me!

"Fear mongering hate filled bigots". PC bullsh** buddy. Open your eyes. "Defend all amendments to the Constitution". It's called being a Patriot. I agree that it's not really about religion, but that's only because I agree completely with Geert Wilders' assessment of Islam: "Islam, rather than a Religion, is primarily a totalitarian political ideology aiming for world domination." A Muslim adheres to Islam. The Islamic text, the Kuran, is the only widely accepted 'religious' text on this planet that explicitly instructs it's adherents to kill all non-believers, and encourages lying and other duplicitous action in order to infiltrate and achieve that goal. This makes those adherents extremely dangerous to American values and the American way of life. We tend to be an accepting group of people. Oftentimes stupidly so. The open-borders policy of the professional politicians and the establishment elites around the world meshes quite well with the 'domination' theme of Islam because of their globalist, New World Order aspirations. "Succumb to Dominion" is the mantra. "Let the Islamofascists do the initial heavy-lifting" has been the strategy. It's been working, and it sucks for Western civilization. But don't think for a moment that Muslims won't be crushed underfoot alongside Christians in the end. Fortunately, many free Western citizens are becoming aware of this, and are proactively working to stop it. Trump is a serious player in the US, Merkel will be gone from Germany, Brexit will happen, Le Pen is gaining support in France, Wilders is coming on in Holland... Belo,you're far too young to have your head that firmly buried in the sand. Kasich is a good man with many honorable qualities and I admire him, but he's been swallowed by the system that has pushed everything to the left of center over the years. Go along to get along is not going to help save the people who desire freedom.

i thought it was baked at first but apparently it was poached!!

It is eminently patronizing for liberals to repeat the now obviously discredited claim that religion is not the unifying factor behind the global Jihad. Not all Muslims are a problem, but Islam is the problem. It is a deadly serious ideology that will brook no dissent and is intolerant of all other views. There are no Muslim dominant countries where Christians and other minorities are not persecuted in one way or another. Islam is a complete social system. It does not and cannot conceive of separation of Church and state. It seeks full spectrum dominance of all areas of law, politics, finance and social behavior. The religious and social imperative for Islam is to eventually takeover all territory it finds itself in. This is the concept of Dar al Hareb (House of War - the west) coming under the sway of Dar al Islam (house of peace). There are various stages in this process, but eventually, when numbers are large enough, war and violence is the favored method of conquest. There are only 2 options for non Muslims in an Islamic state. One either lives as a dhimmi, a second class citizen forced to pay the exorbitant Jizya tax (designed to force conversion) , or one converts under threat of death. That is history, that is reality. Anyone fool enough to think otherwise, is just that, a dangerous fool.

forget about the legal ramifications, if i did that at 16 my dad would've given me all the punishment i could handle

If you're old enough to decide to run from the cops then you're old enough for the punishment for running from the cops.

I figured if anyone could comment about having a snake in the can, it would be you

If she puts me on her list I won't be thinking of selling my stuff anymore. LOL

I've been feeling kinda left out of this thread since it took this "classy" turn. You guys will be seeing more of my adventures with "Jenny" in the coming weeks, whether you like her... or not! We'll go all kinds of places together this summer,lol I actually bought a 24oz'er of something I'd never even think of trying today just because of this thread. I'll post a negative review of that if I throw cookies tonight,lol

He has my vote Same with my son, with fear comes respect and a conscience. I was raised with morals as I will do the same with my kid. When we were spanked it wasn't often but we deserved it.

The ongoing disrespect/disregard for law enforcement. I just don't get it No matter what the circumstance is, stop like a gentleman, let law enforcement do their job and if you're not doing anything wrong you should be on your merry way shortly, if you are doing something wrong pay the mother-effing consequences/fines etc. Unfortunately, this officer now has to lose time from work, pay out of pocket medical expenses, etc. All because some douche decided to try and get away. Rant over....thanks

Note the application. It works very well in medium capaity cases W/medium for caliber bullets. I use it in 30/40 Krag, 7mm-08, 8X57IS & plan to use it in 7X57. It will attain about 100fps average Mv @ similar chamber rpessure to the old stand-bys. The Norma MRP has shown astounding results at moderate chamber pressure in 280 Rem W/140gr bullets & I am planning on using it in my 8-mm-06 Ackley.

First, I'm not married. 2nd, my kids are on their own. 3rd, I wouldn't go anywhere that did not have the best interests of the US in mind, nor would I take anyone along that didn't have a reason for coming along. Being President of the United States is not a celebrity position, nor an all expense vacation to be milked to the max. It is the most difficult position to be bestowed upon anyone in the world. It can be used to accomplish great things, or suck the life out of the fools that put you there. Too often, the latter is the norm, but never quite as awful as the current occupant.

When you transition from the thinking that everyone is a friend, to thinking that everyone should be excused for their behavior because we would like them to be a friend, there's a problem. How many times do you need to be punched in the nose?

Not calling you and idiot by any stretch. but I think this letting kids out of personal responsibility is one of the keys to why the country is so f'd up. Where is the line for giving a pass. DUI and a wreck? street racing and running a kid on a bike over? I can use the "he didn't intend to hurt anyone" argument for sooooo many things that are illegal.

we aren't talking about a speeding ticket or even a wreck where no one was injured. This is a felony assault charge. If his record is clean he could end up with just misdemeanors, probation and ACD.

I was looking at myself in the mirror this morning and I was like....yup, that's a gun.....Nobody has said anything though. I think I might try an ankle holster....I will see how it goes....As long as I don't hear....is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me...

I'd have to agree. At least he's not in Cuba at a baseball game kissing ass. Obamas leadership is ignore and pretend it's all OK. Trump at least seen it coming and has a plan. Now I wasn't a Trump supporter but, we will see.Sent from my XT830C using Tapatalk

Black Bellamy Here are some more facts for you to consider: "Barack and Michelle Obama have traveled more than any other first couple — doing Spain, Africa, China, South America, among other distant spots. Often they’re accompanied by friends and Michelle Obama’s Mom, Marian Robinson, who’s been living in the White House at taxpayer expense since her son-in-law’s inauguration. And in some cases, Mrs. Robinson’s friends tag along." "By one accounting, as of last July the Obamas had spent more than $44.4 million in taxpayer money on travel for 31 international trips lasting 119 days. For comparison, at the same point in his presidency Ronald Reagan had made 14 trips lasting 73 days" "Michelle Obama and three of her family members stayed in a $8,350-per-night Beijing presidential suite." The 3,400-square-foot suite included a private steam room and in-room dining for six. "Air Force revealing that Michelle Obama’s 2014 trip to China cost American taxpayers $362,523.53 in air travel expenses alone. The first lady, her daughters, and her mother spent March 19-26 in China." (2014)

Not true....With things the way they are in the world I would be more concerned about them being safe and secure in the US instead of them & the mother in-law getting to tour the world on taxpayer's dime. Now it is off to Argentina with the whole crew and who knows where to next. Aren't the "children" supposed to be in school or do they have their teachers with them. Still seems to me like an abuse of taxpayer money. What the hell do we need to be in Argentina for anyways. Oh I forgot we have to find ways to combat the Zika Virus. That will probably do more harm than ISIS.

Trump has already displayed a good deal of leadership just with his candidacy. Example: He's started taking apart 'political correctness', which has stifled the free exchange of ideas in this country for a couple of decades now. This alone is considered a big win for many of us. The term "illegal aliens" is still considered hurtful by those on the left, but it's becoming acceptable again to thinking people because it's an effective descriptor that needs to be used. Thank you Mr. Trump.

I'm the guy on the street that will walk a few houses either way of ours and pick up cans or garbage or branches in the road . The neighbor however let's her garbage can blow over and let stuff blow down the street and leave the can for the garbage men to pick up. Worst thing I've witnessed was a McDonald's bag full of trash on the 290 from the car in front of me and then the drink cup followed. I couldn't believe it.

The countries don't breed terrorists. America doesn't breed terrorists. You sound like Obama. The religion is breeding them. While many Muslims don't subscribe to the radical teachings. The radicals are getting direction from their faith. Moderate Muslims are culpable though. They are doing nothing to stop the radicals. The power to stop this is with them. The Catholic priests were raping boys all over the world. You didn't hear anyone say that America was breeding rapist priests. What we heard was the condemnation of the church for protecting their priests and turning their backs on their parishioners. The actions of a "few"don't reflect everyone? How about the ignorance of all Muslims to condemn the actions of your so called "few"?

Metal head here too. I don't listen to the doom and gloom metal anymore these days though. Slipknot has been my favorite band since '99. I also like the pre-Corey stuff. Check your PM's. Burgers on the grill tonight with asparagus and simple potato chips. Not a lot of sleep lately, so it was w/e was quick tonight.

No sheds today, but I did find another dead buck. Spotted something that didn't fit in about 50yds away and didn't know if it was worth going out of my way to investigate. I should know better by now, but just goes to show even when you don't know what you're looking at, it could turn out to be just what you're looking for.....ANTLERS!!!

The only thing I want to see returned from Cuba is Joanne Chesimard. If you don't know, she killed a NJ State Trooper in May 1973, was sentenced to Life in prison in 1977, escaped in 1979 and has been living free in Cuba ever since. Obama doesn't seem to think it's of any importance.

You don't worry about how she was raised. We are extremely close. She is aces as far as any 20 year olds I know. 3.9 in a very hard major and still loves to spend time with Mom and Dad. I know things like manners, personal responsibility and hard work are foreign to you. I would bet you don't see and issue letting a your kids spend time under the crack mentors on your street for career tips and that would seem perfectly acceptable you.

basic medium red and ladino or alice white. I would invest in a quality sprayer - if you are doing it all by hand you can get functional plots (not necessarily photogenic) with timely sprayings of glyphosate and then some seeding of winter rye or brassicas and some basic top dressing of fertilizer. People get hung up on how pretty plots need to be. I've seen some pretty ugly plots - including the one me and Moog did last year, that I've got a fair number of deer on cam munching away.

Haven't been out much. Did give a friend a tour of my small property near beans behind the house. Showing him what I did and planned on doing for habitat stuff. We walked up on this rub. Seen bigger but don't have pictures. This was almost end of the season and I have good reason to believe he's still running. Notice the tine marks high above the main rub area where he was rubbing with his bases.

Only small scale compared to some producers on here. Hope to have 14 gallon of syrup, come seasons end. We ran out from 9, last season. Once family and friends get a taste, it seems you never have enough, LOL. Pics are from 11 oclock this morning. I had to count how many taps I did put out; 61 total. This whole maple thing can become addictive, as others have warned.
