Honestly, to me that would make a good "start" outfit, kinda like "The Teacher" at Mons Venus in Tampa a while back (I think it was Mons Venus, I've been to so many strip joints over the years I can't recall for sure. Plus, I don't cloud my memories with such triviality as the location of the place, just the outstanding butts and boobs I saw!). However, towards the end of the show, I would expect her to be wearing much less...

Then fuck it, have two events. Basically, you've been told by your dickless leadership is to have a dining out with a few shenanigans (yes, I said "shenanigans" as well) thrown in to make it "fun." In other words, lame. So have this event, and make sure no colonel's wife gets pissed off about anything; then arrange a real dining in that pays homage to the great traditions of the Air Force. The secret is in the planning, as if you execute properly there should be no one with any memory of what actually occurred (other than whats stated in the official police or hospital reports) Oh, one last bit of advice...still drink heavily before your combination dining in/dining out as you will be absolutely bored to death otherwise... Cheers! M2

Naw, this needs to be aired out. Plus, over 90 people responded to the poll, so obviously it is of interest to some folks... But the bottom line is that is all an exercise in futility, as there will be no restricting of any particular group on this forum as far as I am concerned (and I think BaseOps and the other mods will back me on this one). It is much easier to weed out the douchebags on an individual basis, especially the dumbasses who get into pissing contests with moderators. Seriously, how fucking stupid can someone be? So this thread is pretty much pointless, but the discussion will remain open as long as folks want to talk about it. Let nature take its course and it'll die out once the interest in this topic does the same... However, unless some of you nutbags get off your asses and post some more De-Motivational posters with tits and guns, I am gonna delete every fucking thread in this forum! Got it?

First rule, never post your TiB pics to your Facebook page. Gentlemen, I present one Katie Badowski... How do I know it's her? Well, she's a "fan" of the "Tops In Blue 60th Anniversary Reunion 2013" And before anyone else says it, I will..."I'd hit it!" But I've always had a thing for snooty, know-it-all but relatively cute babes! I always enjoyed the challenge of baggin' 'em! Secondly, apparently she's a Beaver! Well, she claims to be an Oregon State alumni from 2008...anyone here know/recognize her? I know we have some current/former OSU'ers...

Here's a question for the bar, is Peyton Manning a poor sport because he left the field after the game without congratulating the Saints? This blog says no, but I disagree. Sure, Manning wanted to win; but who was there that didn't? It isn't a matter of whether Manning is a good sport or not, it's more of the example he is setting; and I don't buy his excuse for not doing so...

Agreed, if there is any music to be added to this game, it should be the O'Jay's For the Love of Money, Pink Floyd's Money or even Abba's Money, Money, Money (although I think Madness' version was better); not this shit!

Again, WTF?

WTF? Men at Work ripped off Kookaburra? And here is Men at Work's Colin Hay's statement on court battle over Down Under and Kookaburra in full.

Y'knew someone would post this in response... Cheers! M2

Slack Never too much, with all the threads on gays in the military and Pagan worship alters at the USAFA; someone has to uphold the high standards of boobs and guns! Cheers! M2

WTF? No posters for almost a week? Fail! Here's some to get things back on track... Cheers! M2 Had to add this one...

Wouldn't matter to me, after reading some of the “Commie-fornia” laws concerning ARs/AKs, there is no fucking way I would buy any weapon that complies with them if even on principle... No wonder that state is so fucked up! But the bigger problem is that a large number of the liberals from there are making their way to Texas, and are trying to fuck up this state the same way they did their old one. Go read about the recent debacle up in Austin, where the BATFE and Austin PD forced a gun show sponsor to sign a contract requiring all transactions at his show be done through a FFL. Texas law allows private sales to other Texans without going through a FFL, but this decision was a clear and dangerous precedence to violate that right! Needless to say, it will most likely result in the end of gun shows up in Austin; but I am happy to report that the shows down here in San Antonio have not been similar threatened, and it is business as usual in the Alamo city! Cheers! M²

SuperWSO You said an officer shooter is someone who "responding to a perceived injustice," isn't that what Hasan is claiming, that he was responding to the treatment of Muslims by US forces? As for the "voices in his head," I think that more aptly describes Hasan versus a suicide bomber who has been identified, indoctrinated and specifically chosen for his mission. Hasan did all this by his own choosing; he was not prompted or directed by a terrorist group. You also stated that "the office shooter typically goes to a location where he knows the victims and shoots those people," and again I think this perfectly describes the incident at Ft Hood. This isn't the Luby's massacre that occurred in Killeen when George Jo Hennard drove his pickup truck into a Luby's Cafeteria and shot 23 people to death while wounding another 20, subsequently committing suicide by shooting himself. Hasan specifically targeted those he felt were responsible for the injustice he felt. You listed a definition of “terrorism” as a premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents. Once again, this does not accurately describe Hasan; his targets were not noncombatants nor were his actions politically motivated. I compare him more towards Scott Roeder, the abortion killer who did not know the right way to address his grievances so he committed an act as despicable as the one he abhorred. I don't think McVeigh is a good comparison as his actions were politically motivated (he was responding to the government's action at Waco two years prior). He was known to distribute anti-government literature and denounced government agents as "fascist tyrants" and "storm troopers." He definitely displayed more indicators of his possible future actions that Hasan, who at most was a lackluster officer and psychiatrist. While an intern at Walter Reed, he required counseling and extra supervision; and despite press reports to the contrary, he did get a poor OER before being transferred to Fort Hood in July 2009. Hasan claimed that he had been harassed because of his ethnicity, which caused his disenchantment. He pursued several avenues to be released from military service, to no avail. The shootings appear to be the final option to his sick mind, or in other words, the guy snapped because he was being put in a position that he could not deal with (deploying to Afghanistan). He may have tried to seek some justification through his religious beliefs, but in the end I still contend his acts were personal and not religious radicalism or terrorist in nature. If it were the latter, than to what end? What were his goals and objectives in his acts? Was he considering the long-term impact of his actions, or was he simply looking for his own "last stand" as do most office shooters. Again, I believe it was the latter. Lastly, had this been a pre-planned terrorist act, then where is the follow-up? No group claimed responsibility for Hasan's actions (although several did applaud him, a sign that they were not directly involved). Suicide bombers and IEDs, two clearly acts of terrorism, are effective because they actually cause lasting fear in the intended targets. One of the long-term failures of the 9/11 attacks is that although they initially induced panic in American society, that fear has pretty much subsided and people are no longer afraid of flying as they were for the months following the attacks. The lasting effect has been more one of inconvenience (longer time getting through airport security) then fear of becoming the victim of a suicide hijacker. Personally, whereas the 11 September attacks could be considered successful in their planning, execution and impact; they are a failure as not only has al Qaida has been unable to follow-up on them to keep the terror level high, but they also resulted in the fight being taken to their backyard (the Middle East) and all the death and destruction has occurred on their soil. Despite all the criticisms levied on the Bush Administration, you cannot deny the fact that it successfully moved this battle from our shores to theirs. But I will admit that Hasan does represent a potential threat we must not ignore, one from within. Just because I don't believe his were terrorist actions, I do believe that those who seek to conduct such acts will try to replicate what he did. This, more than anything else, is what we need to plan for. Cheers! M2

OK, you asked, so here ya go... What do I disagree with in Peters article? Basically everything. For one, Peters knows jack shit about what happened except for what he has read in the press. What true or firsthand knowledge does he have of the events at Ft Hood. None. What access does he have to the classified reports on the incident. None. So what knowledge does Peters have that makes him such a fucking expert? Secondly, he is very judgmental like he's some fucking expert on the topic. Sorry, no matter how people are trying to label it, the Ft Hood shooting was "another office shooting," except this one was perpetrated by a Muslim and it happened on a military base. Sorry, I don't care if Hasan exchanged emails with UBL himself, this was not a coordinated, terrorist attack as some are making it out to be. It was a lone shooter who is/was a nutjob. He may have had radical thoughts, and he may have conversed with others that thought the same; but he was not supplied weapons, funded by or received operational guidance or assistance by any terrorist group. Had he not been a Muslim, this would have blown over by now. Thirdly, the attacks on the officer evaluation system--and how it should have identified him as a problem--are a joke. Does Peters think that Hasan was the first person to get evals that were better than he was? I've seen so many inflated OPRs, OERs and FITREPs (I was the exec for a two star who dual-hatted as a joint organization commander, so I've seen them from all services) and Hasan's case is no different than the hundreds of "my top officer" reports that flew across my desk. You want an honest evaluation system? Then get some honest commanders. But there are too many careerists who are more worried about their next promotion then actually giving out honest ratings to their troops. Hell, I tried to put comments in an OPR about a captain who was severely overweight and get so much pushback that I almost filed an IG complaint about it. I should have made it out as a referral OPR, but I had enough trouble getting what I wanted to put through the Army colonel that was my rater and his additional rater so honestly even I caved in a bit. It only shows that no matter what happens, no service will ever get close to an honest evaluation system although I will admit at least the Navy tracks and limits the number of ratings any senior rater can give (something the USAF needs to look into). Next, "protected-species minority?" Fuck Peters for even insinuating this bullshit. Do you really believe that minorities are that protected in the military? Yes, I've witnessed numerous instances of "gender protection" but no matter how PC the military has gotten, to make such an accusation is ludicrous. I am beginning to believe that Peters was one of these Army LTCs who didn't make full bird, and now blames it on some minority quotas or some other bullshit instead of his own limited abilities. I've seen nothing that convinces me he was some stellar soldier, he had a good career just like millions of other Army officers before him. Nothing wrong with that, but it doesn't qualify him to be an expert on everything. Lastly, Peters acts like there were all these "signs" that Hasan was going to snap and start shooting people. Honestly, anyone whose spent time on G-series orders knows that many individuals show similar dysfunctional traits but don't end up killing 13 and wounding 30+. Hell, I imposed disciplinary actions on several people who I was concerned may have posed a threat to me; and I've met lots of people in uniform that could easily be labeled as "unstable," but it doesn't mean they'll actually do something and in some cases it makes them better at their job. Sorry, Peters claim that "all the intelligence was there" and that there was clear warning prior to the shooting is just more of his bullshit. Peters can easily criticize, he's one of a mass number of media whose expertise lies in "Monday morning quarterbacking." It is easier just to print a brilliant opinion of what should have happened after the fact, and act intellectually superior to military authorities; but the bottom line is that he offers no tangible recommendations to what could be done to prevent such an incident from occurring again. Arm more personnel on base? Stricter inspections of POVs coming through the gate? Kick all the Muslims out of the military? What does he offer? I also wonder how Peters "suddenly" became this huge military expert when these exceptional attributes seem to not exist when he was in uniform. If this Peters is so brilliant, then why didn't he achieve a much higher rank while he was in the Army? I think I know why... Just my opinion, others may vary...

I've said it before and I will say it again...Ralph Peters is a fucking moron! Seriously, anyone who believes that he can redraw the borders in the Middle East has no concept of reality... And this article just confirms once again that his opinion of anything is worthless.

Lackland BX is now selling limited quantities of handgun and rifle ammo. Mostly self-defense pistol ammo, but also some shotgun shells. They also had some Golden Tiger 7.62x39, but not nearly as cheap as I have found elsewhere. Still, it's a positive sign!

A reporter covering the incident later made a backward, over-the-shoulder shot from around mid-court! It Appears Everyone Can Now Make Half-Court Shots At Olathe Northwest's Gym They are saying the court is "possessed!" Cheers! M2

Actually, this is pretty funny... Prank goes awry when coach hits blindfolded shot Cheers! M2

Just heard about this, it's not a bad deal! Sig-Sauer is offering a $300 off rebate on their 556 rifle (excludes pistols) for 45 days (Jan 23-Mar 8). Click on the link for the rebate form. Cheers! M2

Dang, Slack, you really want to see a pic of his sister, don't you?

It all depends, is your sister hot and stacked? And we can't take your word for it if she is, you'll have to post some pics, preferably in a bikini (her, not you)...

Really show the love...DONATE!

Interesting, but it won't find a spot in my pistol safe... Most comments are complaining that it is not a .22LR! Cheers! M2

Aww, could be; but it's still wrong... Dude on the left has got it right; but both are holding them homeboy ghetto like! Plus, I am getting kinda bored with all this white bread rap...too many wannabe Eminems out there! I mean, at least the Gringos had talent!
