    well….David DID slew Goliath with a rock…maybe.

    The superintendent of Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania’s Blue Mountain School District says his students avail themselves of rocks with which to defend against mass shooters.

    WNEP reports that superintendent Dr. David Helsel told a Pennsylvania House Education Committee, “Every classroom has been equipped with a five-gallon bucket of river stone. If an armed intruder attempts to gain entrance into any of our classrooms, they will face a classroom full students armed with rocks and they will be stoned.”

    Helsel explained how the plan to throw rocks came about: “At one time I just had the idea of river stone, they`re the right size for hands, you can throw them very hard and they will create or cause pain, which can distract.”

    He stressed that doors have been re-enforced, making them difficult to break through, and students have also been trained in “barricading the doors” to make breaching them even more difficult. But the students are armed with rocks in the event that a shooter does get through.

    An unidentified Blue Mountain School District senior indicated that he likes the plan, saying, “It matters because it will help protect the schools, anything helps, rocks are better than books and pencils.” And at least one parent supports using rocks as a defensive measure as well.

    But others in the district mock the idea. An unidentified parent called the idea “absurd” and said teachers ought to be armed.

    Dr. Helsel says the district has no plans to arm teachers for school safety.

        They will probably assault the teachers. No, let’s not arm the adults. Let’s give the children weapons instead.

    Actors at Casting Call Are Surprised by Real Gun Facts They’re Asked to Read

    https://pjmedia.com/video/actors-casting-call-surprised-real-gun-facts-theyre-asked-read/

    Here is what happens when people on both sides of the gun conversation in America are able to be heard. The producers of this video had a variety of actors cold read statistical truths about guns and crime in the United States. Much of this is known to pro-Second Amendment advocates but not to the general public. It is difficult to have a fact-based conversation when the largely uninformed anti-gun left is running around screaming “ASSAULT WEAPONS” all of the time and the media is always there to amplify their panic. One of the younger actors admits that he just “blindly chose a side” in the gun debate. Another says she is now inspired to do more research. At the very minimum, the video is full of good information for pro-Second Amendment people.

    The struggling socialist Venezuelan regime, a global hub for crime-terror convergence, has been harboring criminal and terrorist groups such as Iran’s proxy Hezbollah, Chinese Triads, the Russian Mafia, and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia.

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:
    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

    Stella, I made the challah bread today. It was surprisingly easy to make the six strand braid, it is delicious and not too sweet at all, It way more than doubled in size during cooking, and this was after letting it rise.

    The recipe I chose called for sugar, the King Arthur recipe called for honey, so I used half and half. I am so pleased with the result. It is quite good. Oh, and the recipe I used said it was for two loaves. It actually makes more than that, and they are very large loaves.

    McCabe : I was “confused” in interview with investigators

    https://nypost.com/2018/03/24/mccabe-i-was-confused-in-interview-with-investigators/

    Ex-FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe admitted Saturday he was “confused and distracted” when he talked to investigators about alleged misconduct during a 2016 investigation of the Trump campaign.

    McCabe “lacked candor” in that interview, Attorney General Jeff Sessions determined, and fired him March 16th, two days before he would have been eligible for a pension.

    “Some of my answers were not fully accurate,” McCabe admitted in a Washington Post op-ed, but insisted, “I did not knowingly mislead or lie to investigators.

    Dear McBaby,

    Hmmm…..

    There is a word for that, let me think about it, what is the word I’m looking for……. 🤔…….perjury!

    Suck an egg,

    Lovely

    So the 6′ 8″ goober James Comey, the Director of the FBI, almost wet himself when President Trump was alone in a room with him then McCabe was so nervous and distracted by things going on around him he couldn’t think clearly enough to give give honest answers.

    And these folks have the audacity to call President Trump a rube.
