A woman in Seattle is suing the Blue Angels. Lauren Ann Lombardi has “sued” three Navy personnel, two Blue Angel pilots, and the Blue Angels’ social media admin in federal court. Why you ask? She claimed the Blue Angels killed her cat. Yes I am serious, and apparently so is she. The cat, that suffered from congestive heart failure, allegedly became physically ill from the sound of the squadron’s low-flying F/A-18 fighter jets.
The Blue Angels were in Seattle for an event called SeaFair when the feline took to the fainting couch. While I feel for mz Lombardi, if the cat was so fragile that a couple of flyovers did it in, kitty wasn’t gonna last all that long anyway.
Now, the nuts in Seattle want to cancel the Blue Angels altogether.
I dunno man, I just work here.
Emmanuel Macron just pulled the dumbest move of his presidency as far as I’m concerned. He announced France would recognize a Palestinian state. I don’t even know where to start with how bad and stupid this is.
I suppose I should start with the fact that there isn’t a Palestinian state to recognize. There is no Palestinian government, there are no Palestinian lands, and most important, there are no Palestinian people. There are Gaza Arabs (Egyptian Arabs), Judean Arabs and Samarian Arabs, (the last two are more properly called Jordanian Arabs). Until 1967 when Yasser Arafat and Fatah decided they needed to call Arabs living in the former Mandatory Palestine something else, they were simply known as Arabs.
It seems Macron is doing this to appease the Muslims that are taking over France right now. He thinks it is a way to improve his 19% approval rating. It is not. The Muslims will not thank him for this. Rather they will see it as a form of weakness.
The following was posted by the official Democrat party account and then deleted. I wonder why. . .
It is one of the biggest self owns in Twitter history.
The 9th circuit – yeah, shocked me too – delivered a solid 2A win in California. A three judge panel ruled California’s ammo background check law was facially unconstitutional.
This comes on the heels of another decision out of the nutty 9th striking down the one gun a month law in Cali.
It has not been a good couple of months for Greasy Gav and his minion AG Rob Bonta.
What started as a minor border skirmish has expanded into something more between Thailand and Cambodia. A section of their mutual frontier has been in dispute for decades and there have been minor clashes regularly, but the Cambodians started getting froggy in the last few days.
The conflict has moved into its second day of major fighting. I am not sure what Cambodia – the aggressor in this round – is trying to accomplish. The country still hasn’t recovered from the murderous reign of Pol Pot.
