Real Men...
In
May 1943, Office of War Information photographer John Collier traveled
to the timber holdings of the Brown Company in western Maine near the
New Hampshire border.
There, he camped out with woodsmen who were tasked with guiding thousands of heavy, slippery logs on the spring pulpwood drive down the Kennebago River and Mooselookmeguntic Lake toward distant pulp and paper mills.
In addition to making portraits of the workers at rest, he captured the men in action as they deftly used pikes to maneuver the pulpwood, even riding the logs themselves to usher them through treacherous waters toward their destination.

I found the above article and images from a link that FIREHAND had posted about
a VOLCANO IN A CORNFIELD. I'm sure you can spend some time over at MASHABLE.

Thought For The Day....
If CNN is posting so much fake "negative" news about Trump, what's the chance that
they were reporting lots of "positive" fake news about Hillary or Obama?
ANTIFA Plans To Burn Confederate Flags And Desecrate Graves of Confederate Soldiers During the 154th Anniversary Celebration of the Battle of Gettysburg
ANTIFA protestors really do not know what they are protesting and what they represent. I say they are really ignorant of real American history and have my doubts as to whether or not they really even care. ANTIFA is supposed to stand for anti-fascism, but in reality ANTIFA protesters are about as FASCIST as one could be. My view on the ANTIFA crowd is that their ranks are comprised mainly of college age young folks who have been programmed by the pro-communist liberal media to hate wealth (any white person who owns more than them) though many of the ANTIFA come from money and are white. Through their pro-Leninist glasses they see hard working people with "things" as RICH. Most everyone understands how the "divide and conquer" strategy works. "Class" division has been promoted in this country by pro-commie forces for the last fifty years or so to work in conjunction with the RACISM aspect of "divide and conquer". Most ANTIFA do not understand that when they are attacking what they have been taught are symbols of "white privilege" (whatever the hell that is supposed to mean) such as Confederate monuments that they are only doing the work of their masters behind the curtain by pushing an agenda that promotes anti-white and anti-private property. Communists, when overtaking a country, almost always obliterate the symbols of which a native people identify with in that land. This is to aid in erasing the past of the new host country so a new "made-up" history can be put in place to further the design of the regime. ISIS forces, though not communist, use this same strategy when overtaking new territories throughout Persia. ANTIFA is threatening to desecrate graves of Confederate soldiers. Well, good luck with finding those at Gettysburg or any other National Cemetery ANTIFA.
Sadly, Gettysburg is like most National cemeteries adjacent to or near National Military Parks where major battles took place in that "marked" graves in National Military Parks and National Cemeteries are for Federal soldiers (key word is National). After large and horrific battles such as Gettysburg, the dead on both sides were quickly buried. Sometimes years would pass before the Union dead were disinterred and neatly re-buried in the "marked" graves that we now recognize with the rows of white marble stones we see when we visit battlefields such as Gettysburg, Shiloh, Chickamauga, and even Arlington.There was not any effort to remove and rebury the remains of the majority of Confederates from any battlefield by the United States government. If they were removed from the battlefield, it was years later and the effort was made by the state for which they fought (i.e. North Carolina removed about 3,200 of their dead from the Gettysburg battlefield). There have been instances where Confederate burial sites have been turned into WalMart parking lots, etc. Even though in 1958 a law was passed declaring all Confederate soldiers, sailors, marines, United States veterans, the gravesites of Confederate dead are not always afforded the protection given of Federal soldiers and American veterans resting in well manicured National Cemeteries. The boys who wore the gray and butternut often lie in unmarked graves not far from where the fell. I sincerely doubt most ANTIFA know or even care which side was which. Their gammit is hype and destruction 'ala ISIS anyway. If there is an "attack" at NMP's, ANTIFA commies might attack monuments honoring soldiers who participated in those not-so-long-ago battles. By the way, those beautiful monuments, honoring both Confederate and Union soldiers were placed by the states from which a particular regiment, Army, company, etc. hailed. The United Daughters of the Confederacy and The United Daughters of the Grand Army of the Republic held huge fundraisers and lobbied their respective state governments to raise vast sums of money to commission the sculpting of such monuments and having them placed on the fields of honor. We do not need ANTIFA commies rat bastards anywhere near such places. So, with all of that said, the ANTIFA trash who is threatening to protest at Gettysburg may have to get history lesson the hard way. I doubt things will get "sporty" should ANTIFA really follow through at Gettysburg this weekend, but if this rabble continues to "poke the bear", I predict they will get the fight they think they want and it will not end well for ANTIFA.

Conditions in New Orleans Are Really Improving Since "Symbols" of Racism Have Been Removed (Not)
Two Boston tourists were brutally beaten and robbed by a gang of "didndunuffins" as they were walking in the French Quarter around 9 P.M. on Saturday. Closed circuit surveillance cameras recorded the savage beating that left the two Boston men unconscious. After knocking the men out the gang can be seen pilfering through the victim's pockets and taking their cellphones and wallets.
I am sure Demokratic Mayor Mitch Landrieu will blame Confederate Monuments for this ferocious attack by these feral savages.
For some reason the foxnews links don't work no matter what I have tried.

"Hey, That's Good Shootin"
Canadian sniper shoots ISIS bad guy at 2.2 miles/11,316 feet/3,450 meters. The fatal shot is a new world record.

The quote in the header is from the 1971 John Wayne film Big Jake. That was the first thought that popped into my head after I read the headline. To view the scene click the caption below (CAUTION: One might end up watching the whole film).

Introducing This Kind Of Legislature Can Bite You In The Ass Mo Brooks
After the attack on Republicans last week, representative Mo Brooks of Alabama has decided to introduce legislation which would allow congressmen to carry firearms in the "gun free zone" known as greater D.C. Sadly, these "fair weather" champions of 2A either do not realize that being armed and properly trained could have prevented this debacle entirely or they chose not to exercise their Second Amendment Right. All rights guaranteed by our Constitution should apply to all American Citizens equally.
For the most part, I like Mo Brooks and he does a good job but there is no way in hell that I could ever support any legislature which grants special rights to congressmen over regular "citizens" (one law for me and another for thee). It is time for all these so-called conservatives who run for office on the notion of and who claim to support the 2nd Amendment to put their asses where their mouths are and plainly state that the "right of THE PEOPLE to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" Laws such as these stupid "feel good" laws in D.C. and many other places throughout our land (i.e. metro D.C., Chicago, and thousands of "parks, schools, etc.") do not offer any protection from CRIMINALS. I bet the pitiful marksman (I don't think he qualifies to bear that title) James Hodgkins was well aware that the area he was targeting was a "gun free" zone. I was really disappointed that while this shooting was taking place that none of the representatives who were on the ball-field didn't pull an iron from concealment or a gym-bag and dispatch this crazed liberal. A person has the right to self-defense. Gun-free zones and these "feel good " measures have no effect other than revealing to bad guys that the zone should be an "soft target" and to expect zero resistance. Also, a congressman who feels the need to pass a law that is already a RIGHT guaranteed by the Constitution really needs a history lesson and a remedial crash course in Constitutional Law. The thought of introducing a law which would grant special privileges to legislators is hateful and another example that there are those in both houses of congress who are ignorant of the laws of this nation and out of touch with reality and the average American "citizen". I hope Mr. Brooks rethinks this position.

Would This Song Be Considered Racist In Today's Day And Age of SJW's?
Well the South side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man named Leroy Brown
Now Leroy more than trouble
You see he stand 'bout six foot four
All the downtown ladies call him "Treetop Lover"
All the men just call him "Sir"
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
Now Leroy he a gambler
And he like his fancy clothes
And he like to wave his diamond rings
In front of everybody's nose
He got a custom Continental
He got an Eldorado too
He got a thirty two gun in his pocket for fun
He got a razor in his shoe
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
Now Friday 'bout a week ago
Leroy shootin' dice
And at the edge of the bar
Sat a girl named Doris
And oo that girl looked nice
Well he cast his eyes upon her
And the trouble soon began
And Leroy Brown learned a lesson
'Bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
Well the two men took to fighting
And when they pulled them off the floor
Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle
With a couple of pieces gone
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
