Half-Ass Promises with Half-Ass Results. The Status Quo remains unchanged as always. So much for the President halting all immigration to the US during the on-going Chinese virus crisis. See yesterday’s post. Today we have Politico… 497 more words via Dear Mr. President, You Will Not Energize the Base with Half Measures on Immigration —…
The Viking “Great Army”
The Operations of the ‘Great Army’ in Britain (865–79) The term ‘great army’, employed by several contemporary sources to describe this unusually large assemblage of Norse raiders, implies a huge horde of perhaps tens of thousands, but it most probably was not. Although no precise figures are given, it is highly doubtful that it numbered […]…
The Viking Onslaught
Big fan of this guy’s blog, Weapons and Warfare. When you have some free time (like now) be sure to read through his selections. The Anglo-Saxons commonly called them ‘Danes’ or ‘heathens’. To the Franks, they were simply ‘the Northmen’. But history knows them as the Vikings, possibly derived from the West Norse word vikingr,…
Pandemic Drones?

Urban Guerilla Sniping v3.0
“History is nothing else than a long succession of useless cruelties.” (Voltaire) When you look at the situation in Syria, you see the logic in Voltaire’s prose. I suppose it is the hopeless romantic in me that wishes for a world that is not filled with asshole tyrants and despots that take advantage of…
Why the Average Civilian Should Study Asymmetrical Warfare
From the Archives, 2015. I got asked this question the other day by a close friend and it occurred to me that I had never really plainly answered that question on this blog, even though I talk about the subject frequently. I think the best way to approach this subject is through historical precedent. It…

Court upholds Right of Armed Citizen to Shoot a Police Officer in Defense This man spent Five Years of his life in Jail for acting in Reasonable Self-Defense against a cop who did not follow the rules.
