Blog Issues With Sidebar Updating
A few people have commented or emailed noting that the side bar list of
Blogs has not been updated to the most recent post at said site.
I just tried changing some of the settings to see if that would make a difference.
Didn't seem to work.
Has anyone else on blogger had this issue?
Right now, I don't have the time to research so I guess it will remain elusive.
Thanks to all who brought this up.

Regarding Those Flock Cameras ..... Nothing To See Here..
LYNN, Mass. — The Lynn Police Department is changing how officers can access Flock cameras after an audit found a “concerning pattern in searches.”
In fact, many departments are now reviewing how officers are using their own Flock camera systems.
Police Chief Christopher Reddy addressed members of City Council Tuesday night on the policy changes.
It will include conducting mandatory monthly audits, having enhanced access controls, and reducing data retention from 30 days to 7 days.
“We have found this very effective audit assistance tool, and we have used it, and we have demonstrated that we’ll take action and that we’re going to continue to use it and take action. We ran the new tool, we saw the anomalies, we investigated them, and we initiated an internal affairs investigation,” said Chief Reddy.

Who Is Watching The Watchers?
Homeland Security Agent Charged With Rape, Sodomy, and Incest
Above shown is Kent Blacklidge who faces charges of multiple sexual crimes. At this point there is not a lot of information being released, but reports of a press conference/more details are forthcoming. This, and similar incidents are a biproduct of what we have been dealing with since the .gov overreach known as The Homeland Security Act of 2022. Known predatorial agencies such as DHS would make great subjects for "flock" cameras. Perhaps the American version of the STASI should have been monitoring cats like this rather than spying on and collecting covert data to be potentially used against law-abiding American citizens. Someone that would contemplate and carry out such a heinous crime would not think twice about breaking another "rule" (i.e. thou shall not use flock cameras for personal gain). I wonder if this perp used the Outdoor Prison Camera system to track his victims or if the OPC system was utilized to help "investigate" Mr. Kent Blacklidge before he turned himself in to Spanish Fort, AL authorities. I suppose we will have to "wait and see" what evidence the state has against Mr. Blacklidge and whether a court of law finds him innocent or guilty. Read more HERE. and HERE.

Make This Shit Make Sense..... Proof We Are Living In Bizarro World..
Great Rant By This Woman.. watch the volume
More on the story:
A mom of five was convicted last week of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Her offense: allowing her 5-year-old son to walk about a half-mile by himself in their gated community.
Until very recently, Karyann Parkinson lived in leafy Williamsburg, Virginia. She and her husband, Dallin, moved there from Utah so Parkinson could attend William and Mary Law School.
In June, when Parkinson was preparing for the bar—and also happened to be eight months pregnant with her fifth child—she and her then-youngest, Sam, went for a bike ride, as they often do. They stopped for her son's favorite activity: collecting goose feathers from the path near their community pond. When they got home, he asked if he could walk back and get some more. LINK HERE<<<

This Is A Tourist Attraction In China...
A description from when it opened in 2024:
The newest of these not-for-the-faint-of-heart structures is called Tianti (“Sky Ladder” in Chinese). It clocks in at 551 feet long (168 meters) and stretches between two cliffs at a height of 5,000 feet, according to Chinese state media.
The attraction is located on Mount Qixing in Zhangjiajie Nature Park, in southwestern China’s Hunan province, an area famous for its complex terrain and diverse landforms.
This particular climbing trail is via ferrata-style, built on the rock wall of a mountain using steel handrails, footrests, tethers and cables to enable people to climb the steep rock walls.
Here is a another video that I found. This couple documents the whole journey along this climb.

Full Sturgeon Moon Timelapse....
I took this last night around 9:00pm. The clip does not in anyway capture the amazing scene
as I sat there and watched it unfold. There was a strong breeze, low humidity and the moon
waiting to appear from behind the clouds that moved sideways in a few directions.

Something To Consider
Dr. Taylor D. Rhodes: Flock cameras are quietly tracking Alabama gun owners: Opinion
On any given Saturday in Alabama, a guy can leave his driveway, gas up, run by the ammo store, spend all morning at the range, and be home for lunch. He hasn't broken any laws or bothered a soul. And in more of our towns than you'd guess, a camera on a pole photographed his truck at every stop and filed the photos in a searchable database owned by a private company in Atlanta. Read more
If this kind of stuff is going on in Alabama, I would assume larger urban areas have higher concentrations of the OPCs (Outdoor Prison Cameras). I live in a remote area or as some say, "in the woods". I'd never dream there was a traffic/flock/opc camera anywhere near me, but even the nearest small town to me has one "redlight camera" on one of the two traffic lights in the entire town. Plan accordingly. There will be an exam at some point.

R.I.P. Dolly Parton
I grew up seeing her on the Porter Wagoner Show, etc. before she was famous. I liked s few of her early songs, not so much afterwards. She was a very talented person, but I thought her and Kenny Rogers had conspired in a plot to destroy country music back in the day. I admired Dolly's fortitude. She was born into a very poor family in Appalachia and achieved much. She was benevolent and supported many causes. She was also an advocate for taking the COVID vaccination, writing a jingle to the tune of "Jolene" promoting taking the vax. I'm not implying that is what got her, just stating a fact. She made some films, but like Elvis, she was a better singer than an actor IMHO. She was/is a "fixture" of Americana that will not be forgotten anytime soon.

You Can't Make This $hit Up!
Salman Ahmed Elmi, "Outstanding Refugee Honoree" Charged In A $1,500,000.00 Fraud Scheme Tied To Sex Trafficking and Brothels
I was not surprised to learn Elmi was part of the Tampon Tim's gang. Everyone of these people who have aided, or gained financially from this social experiment gone "horror show" and/or helped bring these military age fighting men intentionally mislabeled as refugees, along with a few women and children, into the country illegally, should be held accountable. This scam has gone from grift disguised as humanitarian aid to a black eye on our government. I would wager a lot of this money is going to Commie/Socialist candidates as we read about these outrages. It is incognizable. The rubber-band is wound too tight. Criminals need to be behind bars.

$26 million is a figure most families could not ignore, but Ida Huddleston and her daughter, Delisa Bare, decided to turn down that offer recently. I am not sure what I would do, but I can say "more power to them". It is their land. They can do with it what they will. Story

When things are going so smooth, you have to have to pay your "enemies" to be bad,,,,,,,
,,,,you know for propaganda purposes and such (i.e. Biden's most dangerous and exaggerated threat in America, "white supremacist", etc.)
Maybe the caption should read, "GENERATED Hate in America". The DOJ arrested Heidi Beirich, $outhern Poverty Law Center employee on Wednesday for being "in bed" with some neo-nazi. I hope there are more arrests followed more arrests followed by lengthy jailtime and I truly hope these commies get what they've got coming to them. This is a group of leftist pot-stirrers who have sewn the seeds of dissension for far too long.
"What in the wide, wide, world of sports is going on here?"
My wife comes in from taking the grands to school the other morning and informs me that I need to turn the police scanner on as fifteen law enforcement vehicles had a pick up pulled over, bed cover raised, and with multiple coolers on the ground around the truck being opened and searched. This was about two miles from where I live. There were a couple of state troopers, a couple of Dept. of Fish and Game vehicles and the rest of the LEO wagons were county and local police. A couple of days later I came across this story of the "turtle bandit". I can recall several such incidents of turtleknapping in recent years. We also see arrests of the "root diggers" (people who roam the woods digging plants such as Ginseng, Yellow Root, Star Root, etc. for profit) in our national forest.

How Does Chaz Chandler Say This With A Straight Face?
"My client is only 18 years old," defense attorney Chaz Chandler said. "All these allegations are impulsive in nature. Naturally, until he's 25, his prefrontal cortex in control of those impulsive behaviors will not be fully developed."

About a year ago a story broke about the above pictured spa owner/operator who faced a myriad of charges (Spa Operator /original post ) and her story and photos went viral in the melee that followed. She has been back in the news lately in two different stories. I remembered she drew a lot of comments here back then and I figured inquiring minds would want to know. Below are a couple of links:

The Wit and Wisdom of Ol' Remus
James Wesley Rawles of The Survivalist Blog fame posted a fitting tribute to blogger and commentator extraordinaire Ol' Remus. For those who knew Ol' Remus and followed, I do no have to explain. For both the un-initiated and once followers of Ol' Remus, fear not as Remus' family maintains his blogsite and many of his posts/commentaries are archived there. Rawles does an excellent job describing Ol' Remus and his style of writing. I could not add anything more that was not written by Rawles other than these links. Enjoy.Jeffery in Alabama

Give Those "Bureaucratic Hobgoblins" Hell Son!
Jacob Rockwell makes some excellent points about the use of "outdoor prison cameras" vs. American citizens.
This might work with varying degrees of success (Rust-Oleum 214944 ). A Sawz-all or a suppressed .22 likely could offer more preferable results.

Widener's Headed Out To The Range With NASCAR Cup Series Driver Chad Finchum...

Hi Irishman,
We recently headed out to the range with NASCAR Cup Series driver Chad Finchum. Our goal was to put together a detailed guide on armor-piercing ammunition that covers the differences between standard .308 Winchester and true AP rounds, how AP projectiles actually work, current legal considerations, and real-world body armor testing with NIJ-certified armor.
I thought it might make a useful reference for you or a resource for your readers. You can read the full article at the link below:

Or, you can watch and share the full video at this link:

Either way, I always enjoy your content and appreciate the work you put into it.
Thanks for taking a look, and keep up the great work!
