This needing an explanation is a very sad commentary on our education system, at least when it deals with history.

And don't forget the suppressor shown in the picture.

I believe the sentiment, but not the attribution...
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2 ... and-germa/

I note that they very carefully did not say that Herzog never said this. They started by saying they could not imagine him saying this and then segued to all the fake accounts named after him. They pointed out that he is not on any social media, by his own statement.

But the meme did not say where or when he said it, nor did it claim he posted it on social media. So we have NO proof that he did not say it and only a claim that a Politifact editor could not imagine him saying it.

I do not have an opinion on whether Herzog said it, said something like it, or said nothing anywhere near the claim, but it is for a simpler reason. I have never heard of him and had to look him up to see who he was.

But I will point out that in this article, Politifact admits to being a partner of Facebook, which would make anything they say doubtful in my eyes anyway. Of course, I knew that part before they admitted it.

I knew there was a reason I wanted one of those.

Excaliber wrote: ↑Fri Mar 26, 2021 8:45 am Unless I'm reading it wrong, the chart appears to show the USA with about 112% per capita gun ownership.

That may take a little explaining.

Current estimates are that there are 400,000,000 guns in the US among the citizens and only 330,000,000 guns. I did not know it was up that high but Colion Noir cited that figure when talking about the Democratic push for gun control the other day.

So roughly 11 years, 255 days, 12 hours to make the trip...
Meh. A .45 ACP would take 18 years, 116 days, 19 hours, but it would make a bigger hole...

But wouldn’t both melt and then vaporize well before they got there? You know, science.

Well, if you are going the science route, I would have to point out that I don't need to hold over because of the strength of the pull of gravity the sun has.

Wouldn't that give a whole new meaning to the term Barbecue Gun?

Now that made me laugh. At the same time I think of all the big dummies dropping their used gloves in parking lots and grocery buggies. The fricken bear has more respect for mankind.

Trying to protect his food supply.

treadlightly wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2020 10:45 pmGood advice, but too late for me. I married an Appalachian dream. When my mountain gal brings home a squirrel, it's shot from one eye to the other. That way, she didn't waste any meat and the pelt is in good shape.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I married above my status. I'm a lucky guy. I have to behave, but I'm a lucky guy.

Sounds like the secret to my marriage lasting 44 years so far. I met my wife in college while we were both on the Army ROTC rifle team. She could always outshoot me. I don't know if she gets jealous or not, I am afraid to find out what happens if she does.

We used to have a saying in the Army that you could tell you were a lifer when you started pointing out the errors in war movies. I found the same is true of cops and police shows.
