A deputy WAS IN THE SCHOOL during the time of the Florida shooting!
This same sheriff has the audacity to say that AR's should be banned. I assume that he thinks his deputies will protect the public.
WELL ONE OF HIS DEPUTIES WAS IN THE SCHOOL! That deputy failed to engage the suspect.
Side note. This one is for law enforcement in my ranks. What percentage of officers that you work with would you classify as being "cowardly"? How many would do their best to avoid an encounter. Let's say they were doing traffic and they got notified that the plate they just ran was armed and dangerous. How many would blow it off and say that they ran it by mistake? If that scenario isn't possible I hope you get the gist of what I'm trying to ask.
The war in Syria has brought out the criminal element...in uniform that is...
Thanks to Drinas for the link!
We haven't talked much about it but the barbarity that the people of Syria, and Iraq are going/have gone thru because of the fighting is off the scales.
The weird thing?
The people directing all this carnage don't seem to care either. The video is graphic and I'll put it in the comments section but if you choose to watch it, it educates.
Some farmer was out on his tractor and a group of gunmen came up to him, stole his tractor and executed him.
Pretty horrific but I'm sure just part of the daily rhythm of the place now.
There is a special place in hell for people that are pushing this thing. We need to punch out. This has long ago become NOT worth it. Not for us or the people that actually live there.

PAK FA armament graphic...yeah...it DOES air to ground!
I've been monitoring the comments on my blog post about the SU-57 going to Syria. More than a few people have stated that the SU-57 is suppose to be the analog of the F-22. Pure air to air.
How wrong can they be!
I don't think anyone has noticed but the Russians don't build "pure" fighters. They build a rock solid fighter platform and then do what we used to. Employ it to go air to ground. That was the secret sauce of the F-15 and F-16. They were not a pound for air to ground but because they were awesome fighters they were great attack platforms too. That wasn't the first time in history either. The P-51, F4U Corsair and A-4 SkyHawk all flexed between roles with aplomb.
WTF am I getting at?
The PAK FA SU-57 will be dropping bombs and firing rockets in Syria. They designed it to strike and I believe it'll get the job done.
Don't hate, respect facts! The Russians got their SU-57 stealth fighter to a war zone before we did the same with the F-35...
I am watching the internet with a bit of amusement and much frustration. The facts are simple and stark. The Russians sent their SU-57 stealth fighter to a war zone before we did the same with the F-35.
It's as simple as that.
They declared the F-35 combat capable. They said that it was ready to lead the charge against North Korea if necessary.
They sent it to the Pacific, quiet so far, instead of the blazing Middle East.
Instead of respecting the Russians for doing what we refused to do, many are seeking to minimize it. Deride it. Mock it.
They're fools.
This is simple. The Russians are about to do what we have yet to see the F-35 accomplish. They're gonna drop bombs in an active conflict from their new jet.
I respect that. You should too.
First it was the Combat Endurance Course, now its Hikes...USMC Infantry Officers Course because a Disneyland ride...
via Marine Times
Faced with towering attrition rates, the Marine Corps has steadily modified its grueling Infantry Officer Course ― changes that top Marines say are not attempts to water down standards, but to more accurately replicate today’s real-world requirements.Story here.
Recent changes include the number of evaluated hikes required to pass the course, and the removal of the physically demanding Combat Endurance Test as a strict requirement to graduate.
Under the new requirements, only three of those nine hikes will be evaluated, and Marines will have to pass all three evaluated hikes in order to graduate.
A boot Lt had one thing he could hang his hat on. He left IOC as a PT God. He would hit deck and he would be able to out PT anyone in the unit.
Now?
Dumb ass Lts can't PT and don't know shit?
What good are they?

The SU-57.
Supposedly the Russians deployed it to Syria.
Meanwhile we have the usual idiocy, stalling, cheerleading and outright lies about the F-35 in US service.
Sensor node? You can use a UAV to act as a sensor node. Advanced sensors? Put an AESA on anything that flies and you get the advanced sensors of the F-35. Fusion? A computer program and SAAB has it down better with the Gripen.
The only "5th" Gen capability the plane has is freaking stealth and that's becoming a non-factor.
Our military leadership miscalculated. They thought they had a 20-30 year lead on the competition. That lead got whittled down to where 5 years ago they thought they had 10 years. Today? They talk about potential threats being equal in tech and ahead in some fields.
We deserve better! Get out of your normalcy bias. Authority is to be challenged, not worshipped!

THANKS TO MY READERS (especially Asmi!)...MISSED WHAT YOU GUYS WERE TELLING ME!
Just plain wow.
They did what my vaunted Marine Corps would not. They sent their stealth fighter to an active war zone. We have ours in the Pacific instead.
How long do we crawl before we run if we're being told that the F-35 is combat capable now????
