Open house

Rifle zeroed. It now fires the first cold shot perfectly, then climbs 2″@1oo yards as the barrel warms up. Not unexpected. Now for some serious piggy business………

    12 killed, 100 injured at the Boston Marathon.

    One of the dead was an 8 year-old child.

    Limbs flying every where.

    Yeah, it was in all the papers, Findalis. We noticed. ;-)
    Latest I heard was two killed, 50 injured.

      Latest is 12 murdered 130 injured.

        Well, 3000 murdered didn’t result in a war on the rotten ideology and an admission that it’s incompatible with Western values. So 12 won’t do it. We’ll still keep importing murderers.

    135 injured now authorities now looking for more devices.

    I’m not surprised or even mad ,I’m tired of talking to people about the threat Islam brings,tired of warning them and being called a racist for simply pointing out the facts.

    I pray for the victims and their families,but the rest of the folks,all I can say is I told you so.http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_unsure.gif

    Forgive me if I don’t get too excited about terrorist attacks nowadays.
    Every terrorist attack–or the threat of them–is now merely an excuse for our own governments to place more restrictions, more laws, more oppressive regulations on law-abiding people.
    Obama’s promise to “bring them to justice” rings kinda hollow, given “fast and furious”, the Benghazi debacle and his Administrations gift of heavy weapons to the Islamic Brotherhood.
    Trash cans and manhole covers are routinely examined before major public events, but these bombs planted in trash cans along the route of the Boston Marathon were somehow overlooked?
    Pull the other one.
    If the perps are caught and brought to trial, and the turn out to be muslim scum, they’ll be given all the protections of the Constitution–those same protections this thuggish gang in power are happy to strip away from ordinary Americans.
    Excuse me while I yawn.

    Russian Self-propelled 6″Howitzer being fired up and ran after a few years being parked.Video title is wrong about the age since they went out of service in 1970,but still interesting-

      @Darin:

      Neat video!

      This was a Stalin Tank? The Soviet answer to the King Tiger panzer on the Eastern Front?

      • Darin says:
        April 16, 2013 at 11:50

        The Stalin was a heavy main battle tank,basically a larger version of the T-34.The Howitzer in the video technically isn’t a tank,since it doesn’t have a revolving turret.

        IIRC the T-34 was the tank that first got the Germans horrifed.After the battle of Stalingrad wire intercepts revealed that the German forward commanders were both shocked and worried that the Russians could build a tank that good and build that many of them.Two German Tank Generals described it was “the deadliest tank in the world”

        The T-34 was revolutionary in that it combined efficient design,sloped armor,large independently sprung road wheels ,horse power and a decent gun.It had the best overall combination of features of any tank in the war.The Germans IIRC only produced something like 6600 tanks of all types during the war.The Russians made 34,000+ T-34’s and about 18,000 of other designs.

        Some reading-

    ‘..The FBI, which has taken over the investigation into the outrage, announced that they were searching for a man they described as having dark skin, wearing black clothes and a black back-pack who tried to gain entry into a restricted area during the marathon. It was also reported that he may have had a foreign accent. ‘

    first info-
    suspect caught-a Saudi national-
    then- of course-
    disclaimers-and bho- saying-
    this is not a terrorist act–

    Hassan’s murders of our BEST at Ft Hood –”just a work place incident”–

    you all know what I think should be done to these evil dark siders–of the religion of peace!!

    This is the clearest video yet of the explosion, and to Wabbit’s eye it looks like home-made explosive. We’ll see what Oswald and Darin think:

      One hour after the finish in a restricted area with nearly no public. On the other side of the road it would have done MUCH more damage. A Very incompetent terrorist.http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_cool.gif

    I wondered if we could just await some facts before we blame anyone? No doubt the millions of prints etc… the TSA have taken will allow someone to be identified pretty quickly or CSI will fly there and, after enlarging a reflection in a photo of the crowd showing a reflecting water drop on a window down the street, threaten someone into a confession.

    Maybe Obama should ban bombs? And ball bearings, shards of glass etc…

      And trash cans, Brown. ;-)
      “I wondered if we could just await some facts before we blame anyone?”
      Well, we could, but facts (such as the fact that 99% of terrorist attacks are carried out by muslims) haven’t stopped the MSM from immediately suggesting that right-wing groups may be to blame. Here’s a few, within hours (or less) of the bombs going off:
      Russert: Boston Bombing May Be Connected to Waco
      HuffPo Blogger: ‘First Thought Was All These Anti-Gov Groups’
      Chris Matthews: Domestic Terrorists ‘Tend to Be Far-Right’
      Esquire Speculates: Attacks Domestic Terrorism
      Michael Moore on Boston Bombings: ‘Tax Day. Patriots Day.’
      CNN Analyst: ‘Right-Wing Extremists’ Could Be Behind Boston Marathon Bombing
      NYT’s Kristof Blames Boston Attack on Senate GOP Blocking ATF Director
      What’s more, NOT ONE of the bastards suggested it was likely – or even possibly – a muslim attack.

      We’re just providing some balance here, and the odds are on our side. :roll:

      @KG:

      The question I have is why we are even discussing gun control in this country, what with the economy getting ready to evolve into a Great Super Depression, and terrorists blowing up innocent Americans in the streets of Boston.

      Did I mention crazy nuke armed North Korea that may supply the “Balkan Incident” needed to start WW III with China and Russia?

      Yet all the Lamestream-Leftist-State Controlled-Propaganda Ministry (called it what you will) wants to report on is gun control and immigration!

      Well, we know why – two big agenda items on the Obama Communist Regime checklist that must be decided in the commie favor to advance the next big agenda item, which is complete totalitarian takeover of the the USA.

      Simply put: “Disarm the potential resistance, lock in control forever with vast numbers of third world pro-socialist voters.”
