Religious Views by Political Position

Islam was created by Mohammad around 650 AD.  (That’s 650 years after Christ shared His view with the world.  Which, was impressive enough to cause the world to restart the calendar!)  But today Islam is viewed to often the same as Christianity.

What you may find surprising is that democrats view Islam as no worse than the Christianity!  What are the stats, you ask?

Democrats Say Islam, Christianity Equally Violent

One should wonder what it is about that group that causes such thinking?  Admittedly in the 80’s there were actions against abortion clinics by a handful of nut-cases.  But since, the number of ‘Christian based’ violent acts has been minuscule.

To share a few facts which come from ‘the Obama State department’ regarding violence in this world, consider who were the deadliest religious groups in the world in 2015.

  • Taliban — 1093 incidents resulting in 4512 dead
  • ISIS — 931 incidents resulting in 6050 dead
  • Boco Hiram — 491 incidents resulting in 5450 dead
  • Mao Party (communists in India) — 343 incidents resulting in 176 dead

Note that the top three on Obama’s list were Islamists.

But of greater import, Christians (not atheists) don’t even show up on the list!  So how does that add up to equal?

My question is, where do we go from here..??

Refugees — What Is The Truth?

Leave a comment

Just about any source of information today is suspect — for good reason.  Too many sources do not reference where they get their information and do not vet them properly in the first place.  Besides, with the advent of ‘political correctness’, there is no universal truth!!

But, there are a few sources worth checking — e.g., Pew Research.  The following article shows that we are ‘giving away the farm’ more than we have in years!  Check out the statistics in their article:

Key facts about refugees to the U.S.

 

Considering the crazy numbers of people we’re bringing into America, we’re not even close to what the ‘feel-gooders’ are doing in Europe.  But hopefully we won’t ever!!?  Who wants to be afraid to go to your local coffee shop?  Or relax in a movie theater waiting for some idiot to come in and shoot the place up or blow off a bomb?  It’s all a matter of probabilities as to the likely hood of another significant attack.  It’s about numbers.  The estimated minimum percentage of ‘radical Muslims’ (terrorists) is 13% worldwide.

But here’s the good news…  We are waaayyyy behind the rest of the world regarding the import of crazy people from the middle east.  Check out this other report from Pew.  But do the math with that 13% and see how many estimated dangerous people we have in America!!?  But we’re still better than Germany, that’s for sure.

Now see!!  I do put out good news occasionally!?!

America’s Warriors?

There’s been a lot of news regarding our military and how it has been downsized.  OK, so quantity has taken a hit.  But at least we have good quality right?  Wellll…  maybe in some units.  Apparently the Air Force has been weakened substantially.  Says who?  A retired academy graduate!  Read his personal observation years after graduating the academy.

Imagine how this caliber of ‘officer’ will motivate his troops in the future..?  Good grief, men who graduate a police academy don’t behave this way!!?

Who’s Side Was The Last POTUS On?

I’ve said from day one that Obama was a Muslim communist — and many argued otherwise.  But as the years passed, the evidence of his actions grew significantly.  Just because his father was a Muslim communist, his mother a communist, his grand-parents communists, I guess it’s just assumption that he is..?

Although my opinion/perspective is irrelevant to some, Clare Lopez is a widely respected expert on Islamic terrorism.  Read her opinion below.

Out with the old!!  Yeaaa!!

I don’t know about you, but every time I saw the #$%^& president sitting in front of his Islamic drapes, etc., I wanted to puke!  But of course I had a problem with America “no longer being a Christian nation”.

It looks like the new sheriff in town has decided to do some house keeping.  I must admit, I had my reservations on Trump, but they are fading.  A matter of fact, ya gotta love this guy in many ways.

If you have the time to watch/listen to this video, it is a fountain of knowledge and common sense worth hearing.  Two speakers are engaged on stage with questions.  Both give their responses which are very encouraging to hear.  I highly recommend your listening to this Q & A lecture.  My guess is, if you’re like me, you’ll hear the first 5-10 minutes of it and get hooked!  Two very smart guys.

Dennis has his website which is DennisPrager.com and his educational site which is PragerUniversity.com.  Both are very educational websites worth checking out.

Bringing a Knife to a Gunfight

1 Comment

Intriguing title, yes?  But this topic is worth reading.  Everyone wants to get a CCW (CHL) so that they can carry a concealed gun.  But what about a knife?  Watch the following video and consider two things:  1)  Why not carry a knife as well a gun?  A knife never runs out of ammunition;  2)  Consider different tactics based on this video.  If you see a knife, you’d best get ready (draw your weapon) early if you want to survive.

Gun vs. Knife Training

 

So the next time you see someone with a knife looking threatening, do one of two things — draw or run…   quick!!

Wishful Thinking?

Now that we’ve gotten rid of the ‘old’ and brought in the new, there are changes on the horizon — lot’s of changes!!  Some may not be all that surprising.  But there are changes potentially coming that are, for me at least, hard to believe.  But, you never know!!?

One of those changes is the possibility of the ATF being disbanded!  Hard to believe?  Read the following article on House bill H.R.1329.

Abolish the ATF?

Consider the impact of such a move.  If nothing else, the economic implication!  Not to mention the potential elimination of scary incidents as we have seen in the past regarding the ATF.
