Over the past few months of the Covid-19 pandemic panic and Antifa/BLM communist insurrection, we have become aware of a few interesting facts, such as that gun sales are breaking records, and anecdotally, that many thousands of Americans are "voting with their feet" by moving from liberal Democrat-run cities and states to more conservative areas of the country.
On the night of July 29, ABR (Antifa, BLM, RevCom) went on a road trip 110 miles south of their Portland base and stronghold to the conservative Eugene suburb of Springfield. The locals were not having it. It seems like ABR can only get away with rioting when they have a Communist mayor protecting them by keeping local police forces out of the area.
As commented on the earlier post this morning:
I wrote this essay in 2012 for Western Rifle Shooters Association, where it quickly racked up over 400 replies and comments. I'm reposting it here in American Partisan on May 31, 2020, during the George Floyd riots, without revision.
So here is the solution I came up with, when I tried to salvage a decent pair of readers after the ear pieces broke off at their hinges. I used black bootlace string to replace the ear pieces, and glued the ends of the strings to the broken hinges with a drop of Gorilla Glue. Other glues or epoxies would also work, but the original GG has held up for a year. The string has no adjustment, they fit just snugly enough that the sides act as earpieces and the glasses stay in place. Just yank them down over your nose and shove them under your shirt to get them safely out of the way, but ready for another use.
Here is a way to make an effective mask using common household materials in just a few minutes. You will need a wire coat hanger or similar pliable wire, tape, rubber bands and a paperclip to construct a mask frame that conforms very well to your face. Then you can use any type of cloth or paper that you have available that will work as the filter. In a pinch, several paper towels are a lot better than just breathing in an invisible droplet of spit and Coronavirus recently coughed out by a passerby.

"The Chinese government is so goddamn smart, to know how to play the long game. They best thing that could have happened for China, is for this not to ravage China itself, but to spread it around the world, because now they can point fingers elsewhere. This is the nightmare, they're going to come out on top."
Under the current quarantine rules strictly enforced in Chengdu and other cities, the CFR can be kept to below 2%, but only at the cost of crippling the economy. Now, just imagine trying to enforce this level of quarantine in American cities. God help us as Covid-19 spreads.
