Tuesday News and Whatnot...........

Hanging out here at the GrumpyUnk Command and Control Bunker this morning checking out the InterWebs.
Can't do a hell of a lot more than that as I'm still of limited mobility.
So here's a few things for ya to peruse today.

The Feds continue to keep us safe from those Damn Evil Amish who continue to try and poison us all with real food-

Feds shut down Amish farm for selling fresh milk
"The FDA won its two-year fight to shut down an Amish farmer who was selling fresh raw milk to eager consumers in the Washington, D.C., region after a judge this month banned Daniel Allgyer from selling his milk across state lines and he told his customers he would shut down his farm altogether."

It must be those strange beards and funny hats.
That's only a halfway joke. The message is becoming clearer everyday that nonconformity of any kind is NOT gonna be tolerated much longer. The activities that constitute Suspicious Activity of all you Damn Domestic Terrorists out there now even include Paying with cash for a cup of Coffee. So maybe the funny hats and beards don't matter anyway.

Especially if you allow your unconventional views to be filmed for TV.
Doomsday Prepper Declared Mental Defective…. Government confiscates his Guns
"Just days after appearing on the National Geographic TV Show Doomsday Prepper, a prepper from Tennessee has been declared Mentally Defective and his guns have been seized by the government. The Prepper, David Sarti is a character to say the least, but his story is somewhat disturbing and should be a wake up call for everyone."

I did not see this show, so I have no idea just how goofy this dude really is, but TV is NEVER gonna show preppers in a positive light and it surprises me that anyone would willingly put themselves at the mercy of the film editors and expect to be shown as anything but BatShit Crazy.

With the Election Season coming on strong now the Bullshit Factor, which seems to have a default setting of 7 or 8 anyway, is soon to start maxing out the dials.



But don't you worry, President JugEars Hussein Obama has an answer to that problem-
Obama To Unleash “Truth Teams” To Counter Negative Coverage

Yes, I know they tried this same BS a couple of times before without much luck, but trying the same lame ass shit over and over is just what these folks do. It must be easier than actually telling the truth and fixing problems or something.


And for you History Junkies out there.......

Life on the front lines: Extremely rare colour photos of U.S. troops before and after D-Day show World War II in brand new light
"Extremely rare and striking photos of the days leading up to and after the historic D-Day invasion have been put on display, nearly 70 years after World War II's dramatic turning point."

These are nice and there's sure to be a bunch more of them available eventually. I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Gratuitous Picture for a Tuesday Afternoon-
