June 8, 2018 -- A Quick Run Around The Web

"Where time stands still: Haunting beauty of abandoned mansions, shuttered asylums and deserted amusement parks across the world are caught on camera"--Daily Mail.

       Why would anyone want to carry a gun around in public?
          Why would anyone feel the need to go to a gunshot wound first aid class?
            This article explains why. The cops aren’t coming to save you. Those same cops won’t allow the (willing to enter) medics to go inside to save you either.
        “By the time the whole building was deemed safe for them to enter, there was no need — everyone had already been brought out by police or was dead.”
          You simply can’t rely on emergency services to rescue you in a crisis. You are on your own. Prepare accordingly.
          “It’s haunting,” Scot Peterson said in a Washington Post report published Monday. “I’ve cut that day up a thousand ways with a million different what-if scenarios, but the bottom line is I was there to protect, and I lost 17.”
                   An unarmed security monitor in a golf cart was the first person to see Nikolas Cruz step out of an Uber, a large bag in hand, and stride toward Building 12 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High just before the worst school shooting in state history.
                     Cruz, however, was no stranger to staff.
                       "Nikolas Cruz. I knew the kid," security guard Andrew Medina told Broward detectives in a sworn video-recorded statement released by prosecutors on Tuesday evening.
                         As soon as Cruz began walking "like on a mission" toward the building, Medina followed and began frantically texting fellow security guards. "We had a meeting about him last year and we said if there's gonna be anybody whose gonna come to this school and shoot this school up, it's going to be that kid," Medina told detectives on the day of the Feb. 14 shooting.

                  Some Firearm Drills:

                  Other Stuff:
                  • "Accuracy Profile: Ballistic Advantage 16 Inch SPR"--The New Rifleman. The author recounts how he performed the accuracy testing for this particular barrel. The process is interesting, even if you don't have any interest in getting a barrel. The author uses a 10-round group, eliminating any outliers. He explains:
                    •       For posterity sake, here is why I omit the distant outliers: suppose we measured the above group by the two furthest points. In doing so, the reported group size is 1.33 MOA.  By only measuring the two furthest points, we are losing much of the statistically significant data. Even if the two outliers were the barrel or bullet’s fault (much higher likelihood that they are shooter error) we still see that 80% of the shots will land within .18 MOA of group center.
                               Since we have a high degree of precision and a group size of 7 or more shots (which represents statistical significance) then I am happy to say that the barrel wowed me the second session out with a .59 MOA / .18 MOA mean radius with 80% of my shots. 8 Rounds, .59 MOA. Fantastic.
                      • And the debate over appendix carry continues after a video emerges of someone whose firearm discharged apparently just from the act of him bending at the waist:
                      • And the rebuttal: "In Defense of Appendix Carry"--The Truth About Guns. The author's a woman, so she doesn't have any junk to worry about. (You're supposed to laugh).
                      My two cents worth is this: if you want to use appendix carry (which has some definite advantages), but you are concerned about an accidental discharge, use a double-action revolver as your carry piece.
                                Now to tie all my maps together and summarize. The highway bloodline of i-15 is critical to the movement of drugs, weapons and humans. All along i-15 Obama placed the Mojave Trail Monument. (to read more about this placement please refer to Mojave Trails National Monument. Read carefully the 'Protected in Perpetuity')
                                  What they have done here is place national monument protected land all along the route between LA and LV. This means you probably need a permit from the Government to have a picnic let alone carry protection.
                                    To say it another way by placing protected lands between the two sanctuary cities of LA and LV a 'gun free zone' now 'protects' the entire corridor.
                              He even is able to tie in the Bundy Ranch debacle, as it lay along this route and was a key piece in the trail. 
                                       Berger, of Huntsville, Alabama, posted the comments as he tried to defend the owner of an Indianapolis CrossFit gym who canceled a special workout in honor of Pride Month.
                                          'As someone who personally believes celebrating 'pride' is a sin, I'd like to personally encourage #CrossFitInfiltrate for standing by their convictions and refusing to host an @indypride workout. The intolerance of the LGBTQ ideology toward any alternative views is mind-blowing,' Berger tweeted.
                                          'The tactics of some in the LGBTQ movement toward dissent is an existential threat to freedom of expression. The lack of tolerance for disagreement, which has been replaced with bullying Twitter mobs promising 'consequences', should be a concern regardless of your political stance.'
                                           Before he was fired, Berger also tweeted: 'Allow me to double-down. I believe @indypride is a celebration of sin, as do most Christians. I deleted this and reposted to a different version to make sure it's clear these are my personal beliefs, you know, since the Twitter mobs are hard at work trying to get me fired.'
                                    Think of Berger, and others like him, as the canary in the coal mine. These people--the liberals, progressives, and their ilk--plan on ruining your livelihood, and would probably take away your liberty and life if they could. As it makes clear in Revelation 13:16-17:
                                           And he [the Second Beast] causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
                                             And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
