Since I was raised a military ‘brat’, it’ll be no secret to anyone that my heroes are those who have served We The People in the military. Today we’ll look at a man whose most famous and difficult mission was the one being talked about today, 71 years later. If you look up Brigadier General Paul W. Tibbets online, you’ll find countless pictures and articles written (both good and bad) about the mission over Hiroshima. The following is from an obituary printed in the UK, from a website set up by Ret. General Paul W. Tibbets, and from an interview he had with Studs Turkel. W2

Brigadier General Paul Warfield Tibbets

“.. To our fellow veterans and the American nation we all echo one sentiment, “I pray that reason will prevail among leaders before we ever again need to call upon our nuclear might. There are no regrets. We were proud to have served like so many men and women stationed around the world today. To them, to you, we salute you and goodbye.”..” (more…)

We know the RAT’s will manipulate the event but we can fight through them by supporting The Rebel Alliance. They are close to their goal. If you can assist, lets put them over the top today.

We’re just a rag tag bunch of misfits without aptitude or technical skills to do much in the way of supporting the techno-wizardry of New Age Media.
However, that said, due to the absurd ideological manipulation/corruption within the MSM, and now with the infection spread throughout the formerly “conservative” media apparatus, the Rebel Alliance needs to support alternatives. Enter Wayne Dupree and Kambree Nelson:

Dupree and Nelson are working to fund a coordinated effort with Right Side Broadcasting, where they will be able to provide coverage of the Republican National Convention.

Our members (team of six) are traveling to the Republican National Convention for the first time to provide you wall-to-wall coverage of one of the most important election events ever.

We are not funded by a corporation or business. We are listener-supported. We want to give you the best grassroots coverage and promise you we won’t cut corners.

“I use a rope every day, that’s how I make my living. If it catches cattle pretty good, it catches a bandit pretty good.”

(Eagle Point Police Department FB) Oregon rancher Robert Borba was at the Eagle Point [Wal Mart]  store loading dog food and a camping tent into his truck when he heard a woman screaming that someone was trying to steal her bike.

The 28-year-old quickly got his horse, Long John, out of its trailer. He grabbed a rope, rode over to the man who was reportedly struggling with the bike gears and attempting to flee on foot.
Borba lassoed the man around the legs and when he dropped, Borba dragged him to one end of the parking lot.
[…] Eagle Point police Sgt. Darin May said officers arrived and found the lassoed man and bike on the ground in the parking lot.  Police arrested Victorino Arellano-Sanchez  (story)
