Thoughts On A Sunday

It was a nice day yesterday, relatively warm with sun on and off throughout the day. Today is not quite as warm, with it being cloudy during the first part of the day with a few snow flurries here and there. In other words, a typical late winter weather cycle. We do have more snow on the way on Tuesday, but only a few inches.

The kids are heading back to school after last week’s February vacation. At least our town’s high school has something to celebrate with its Boys Basketball team winning a state championship on Saturday. Our Girl’s team was also participating in a state championship game but unfortunately lost. So, it was a 50:50 weekend to celebrate.

I have been taking in the news about the US and Israeli strikes against Iran all I can say about it is “It’s about friggin’ time.”

A lot of the people against this “illegal” war action weren’t alive back when the fledgling Islamic State of Iran declared war on the US, invading the US embassy and holding diplomatic personnel hostage for 444 days. That in itself was an act of war. That war never ended…until now. Time has also shown what a brutal theocratic dictatorship it was.

Ironically, as one post on ‘X’ put it:

Muslim countries that support today's U.S strike on Iran: Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, UAE, Bahrain

Muslim countries that DO NOT support today's U.S. strike on Iran: France, United Kingdom

If you don’t believe that Iran was a brutal dictatorship, look at this little bit of life in the Islamic Republic:

Now I want to introduce you to a brave Iranian woman who understood America better than you ever will.

Her name was Sara Saeidi.
Born and raised in Iran.
39 years old.
A mother of two daughters, 19 and 6.

She was hot in the head for the “crime” of peascefully protesting while wearing a sweatshirt that said MANHATTAN, with the American flag beneath it.

While you stood in Congress under that flag, she carried its name on her chest, not as symbolism for a photo opportunity but as a dream.

She was addressing Ilhan Omar’s tweet about “No War With Iran”. Talk about hypocrisy! Look up the term “hypocrite” and you’ll see Omar’s picture next to it as we know she’s been working hard to undermine America from within and has no intention of keep her oath of office.

This is something that has been brewing for a long time and I hope that it is the beginning of the end of brutal Islamic Republic of Iran.

Do we need any more proof that Virgina Democrats don’t really believe in the US Constitution, particularly the 2nd Amendment?

Virginia Democrats are advancing a bill that would prohibit adults under the age of 21 from owning, purchasing, or transporting certain types of firearms in the state.

Virginians aged 18–20 will no longer be allowed to possess handguns or any guns liberals have decided to call “assault firearms.”

The National Rifle Association pointed out that the prohibition would apply to “those who already own such firearms.”

So first they restrict the right of 18- to 20-year-olds to own, buy, or carry handguns and “assault firearms” unless they are in the company of an adult. However, Virginia law defines adults as anyone who is at least 18 years of age. Talk about a contradiction. If they redefine adults as those who are at least 21 years of age, then does that mean that 18- to 20-year-olds would no longer be allowed to vote? After all, they would no longer be adults under Virginia law.

If they manage to weaken the 2nd Amendment, I expect they will go after the 1st Amendment next.

To quote the Instaprof, “They Aren’t Even Hiding It”:

Think about this:

Leftists cheered the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and condemned the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Good. Evil.

They chose evil.

‘Nuff said.

And that’s the news from Lake Winnipesaukee, where the weather is trying to make up its mind, Town Meeting is getting closer, and where Monday is returning to ruin our weekend.
