Cool to cold, clear, really really hope for no rain.\u00a0 We are supposed to continue clear for a couple of days.<\/p>\n
Wednesday was light jacket and long pants, but nice and sunny and clear.\u00a0 I hit a couple of errands, mainly checking in with my gun store buddy (he’s frazzled) and doing some pulling and organizing in one storage unit.\u00a0\u00a0 That was in preparation to taking another load to auction today, and maybe another to the other auction tomorrow.<\/p>\n
I really want to sell as much as possible before the shooting starts.<\/p>\n
And I don’t see any way around the shooting starting.\u00a0\u00a0 I could outline why but I think you all know what I’d say by now.\u00a0 Anyone who sees a path that doesn’t rely on the right either being all mouth and no ass, or being VERY restrained (and what’s the chance of that with covid cabin fever raging) feel free to lay it out below.\u00a0\u00a0 The left is demonstrating daily that they can’t wait to fire up the midnight raids and start running camps. \u00a0 Not right away of course, but it will get there. \u00a0 Look what they’re doing to Trump and people who have political power and money.\u00a0\u00a0 When they’re talking casually about taking kids away from their parents so that they can be re-educated, and it’s not Ted Kazinski in a cabin in the woods but respected people in management of everyday institutions like PBS, I think that’s indicative of worldview and mindset.\u00a0 It’s pretty much opposite of mine, and I’m not going to meet them halfway on that.\u00a0 The masks are coming off and the ugliness is astonishing.<\/p>\n
Once the shooting starts, I expect supply chains to literally blow up.\u00a0 The great TP shortage of 2020 is going to look like shopping at Walmart by comparison.\u00a0 I didn’t expect things to get started so quickly and I have revised my expectations accordingly.\u00a0 While there will be\u00a0 ebbs and flows in the pace of incidents, I expect some soon, and MUCH worse than I originally thought.\u00a0 I’m not thinking about the Monkey Wrench Gang\u00a0 so much as angry mobs tearing stuff up and burning stuff down. 100 John Lee Malvos, not one.\u00a0 100 Timothy McVeighs not one.\u00a0 As icing on the cake, normal crime is spiking and will continue and increase while the authorities are otherwise occupied.\u00a0 You may never see an insurgent,but I bet you’ll see home invasions, robberies, rapes, assaults, car jackings, etc increase dramatically.<\/p>\n
Maybe it won’t happen that way.\u00a0 I don’t want it to.\u00a0 Maybe it will be worse.\u00a0 Maybe it will take longer.\u00a0 I don’t see the emotions going away and it doesn’t take much to disrupt our world.\u00a0 And CV-19 is still killing people.\u00a0 How many of those 20K guardsmen will be infected, and bring it back to their communities when they de-mob?\u00a0 Wonder if they’ll call it a super spreader event and blame Trump? Nah, couldn’t happen.<\/p>\n
Keep stacking.\u00a0 It isn’t gonna be ‘back to normal’ anytime soon, if ever.<\/p>\n
