    Everyone wants to say this was Biden, Biden and Biden.

    I say bullchit, this was Obama, Obama and Obama. It started with Trumps' rise in 2016 against Hillary(and Obama). Who was President then letting the caravan's infiltrate the Southern border before the presidential transition took place?

    Shut down from 2017 to 2021, and opened back up under the new President, Obama. Not Biden, but Biden took the hit.

    Los Angeles right now needs to do one thing:

    Announce "cease and desist and disperse or you will be met with force".

    Fill some fire tankers with pepper spray and extinguish the "fire".

    Our own countrymen are mad that we are enforcing our immigration laws. Weird.

    "No one is above the law"---every politician with an emphasis on Dems saying that
    "Follow the science"=Dems on everything--meaning follow the facts

    "illegal migrants" are committing illegal acts by just being in the country ---Dems--we don't care they can break the law
    "illegal migrants" are bringing fentanyl into this country and are committing human child smuggling amongst other criminal acts.--Dems, we don't care about the facts, forget all the evidence.

    How people can defend what's going on in LA is beyond comprehension.

    "Screw you ICe, you're animals for re.oving illegal migrants!!!"

    "Hey, hey, ho, ho Trump has"..... oh look, a 75" flat screen and a pair of Jordan's......

    I live rural small population, everybody knows everybody in town, zero to no crime. I drive into the suburbs everyday and see the difference, suburbs are crime infested, you do not dare leave your vehicle unlocked even when you are just running in the store.

    Had a friend who is trying to chat with state reps, he was trying to get in contact with a state representative and was having a hard time getting in touch, granted special session the guy was busy. I told my friend I would text the representative for him to contact my friend. Sent a text, the rep called him today. My friend asked how connected I am to Minnesota politics that I can get a response, the representative lives just on the other side of the lake I have his cell and we have ice fished together during our Friday night fishing parties.

    That being said he is a politician and he wore dress shoes in a fish house once, I mocked him but he came direct from the capital and wanted to get out to the house before the pizza was gone.

    Talking about wanting to up the penalty to 1yr incarceration for burning the American Flag.

    I'll go one step further, no jail time. Instant deportation regardless of place of birth. You burn the American Flag you automatically denounce your citizenship. American born? Not an American anymore.

    The only times an American Flag is to be vurned is when it has weathered so bad it must be replaced or the flag touches the ground. There are processes on how it is to be done.

    Sadly the touching the ground one has prrtty much went by the wayside as Olympians and other sports figures dawn it as a cape and parade themselves around with it dragging the ground. Think I complained about it here a Winter Olympics two or so ago, name escapes me at the moment, but the prolific American male snowboarder did such and it pissed me off.

    I don't want pre Covid prices, I want pre Obama prices.

    5.56/.223= 27 cents a round

    .22lr= 2 cents a round

    Picked up 100 rnds CCI HP's 36gr for $9.99 at Bass Pro Sat. I'm checking the zero on the 22-250 Sunday so I can start nailing those woodchucks, so I figured I'd check the .22 squirrel rifle also .... still have around 900 .22 rds left, 400 22-250 ...

    I am not so sure I feel like I am a Minnesotan any longer. I saw a poll this morning 58% of Minnesotans approve of what Tim Walz is doing as governor.
