2nd American revolution Part 1, Chapter 1 Some times it's the little things that set other things off that ends up something massive happening. Like a pebble coming loose from under a boulder, with it bouncing down a mountainside. With that ONE pebble now missing, other pebbles begin to move and soon, they too are rolling and bouncing down that mountainside following that first pebble which has disturbed other pebbles. And from that one little pebble in the beginning, so begins a massive avalanche wiping out everything in its path. And that's how the 2nd American Revolution started and is now known as The Second AR. But instead of a single shot, it began with 17. It was 3 years to the day that Hugh Krampke was ready for his day of reckoning with the terrorists in blue for killing their son and due to their actions, having his wife Mildred lose her mind, then committing suicide. There was not enough money in the world that the city could pay for their deaths, along with those involved still working as police even after being successfully sued, but not charged for the murder of their son. Hugh had what some would say a lot of “trigger time” having been deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq for 4 tours total before being honorably discharged with 35% disability pay from a misfiring IED. He saw both countries, along with others as “3rd world shit holes” that would never accept democracy, preferring Sharia law above all else. It took awhile, but the city did settle with Hugh selling or giving away all his possessions except for his lap top, camping gear, hand tools and family photos which were on several thumb drives. It was during this time he bought a class A motorhome and started modifying it along with buying and modifying an old, beat up VW camper bus from Craigslist which took him a year to do. Much of it was learning from how to Youtube videos. With nothing but hand tools and lots of time on his hands, it got done.
When both vehicles were ready, he sold his house which he kept as cash, but still leaving some money in his checking account. His settlement money was also kept as cash. Moved several states away in part as a shake down cruise for both vehicles, on and off road. The other was his new state (Nevada) was gun friendly unlike his former one. No problem renting a house for a few months while he made further preparations, along with getting a new drivers license which now gave him the opportunity to buy as many weapons as he wanted, along with ammunition because he easily passed the background checks each time. He paid cash for everything, every time. While there would be a record of him buying some of these weapons, the majority were bought thru Armslist which didn't require a background check. Besides, with his DD214 in hand and showing that he was receiving a disability check from the government for his time in the Army, it was good enough for every seller. And unlike California, he did not need a license to buy ammunition. He then went to Mina, where he followed a dirt road with it ending in a valley with nothing but an abandoned mine and several thousand acres of scrub and brush. After measuring out distances with his rangefinder, he'd mark the distances with several rocks. Water was his most precious commodity during this time because he shot without any shade for him other than his old Cabela's hat that he had stuck some Army pins in as remembrances. He altered refueling in Tonopah, Hawthorne and Fallon after first having a double cheeseburger meal in Mina each time. It was in Fallon he bought groceries in Walmart and Dollar Tree because of their lower prices and of course, all the ammo he needed to restock from his every day of target shooting. And always paid cash. It was during this time he did his best to exercise with a 25 pound pack on his back and that included going up hills which he hoped would simulate going up or down stairs in a building. He dropped 38 pounds, extra weight he knew he had, but like others would think, didn't realize it was THAT much.
Then the day came when he knew it was time to leave. He looked around what had been his “home” for many months, checked his range one last time with a large toy magnet to make sure he hadn't left any brass behind. It was between Mina and Lunning he saw the dog laying by the road, not moving. At first he thought it was dead from a hit and run, but when it lifted its head, he decided to pull over to check it out. The dog could barely lift its head as he approached and realized the dog had been abandoned somewhere and maybe trying to get home. Collar yes, but no tags of course. Using the metal bowl he had eaten cereal from earlier in the day, he poured water into it for the dog who greedily lapped it up. As in drinking a full gallon of water. He knew there was a dog pound in Hawthorne, remembering seeing the sign as he had passed thru town more than once. But maybe 20 minutes down the road, the dog started pawing at the door, so he pulled over with the dog quickly running out to take care of business. It came back inside and once again, the two started down the road for Hawthorne. But when he got into town, he realized the dog was something more than just a dog, but a physical symbol of what he had gone thru. That is, suddenly losing everything he had in life with the deaths of his wife and their son. In this case, no doubt the dog had had a home, but for unknown reasons, simply abandoned out in the middle of nowhere and waiting to die while watching car after car simply pass her by. And he KNEW what her name was now: Karma. He told her that her name was Karma and that Karma was a bitch....and really laughed for the first time since all of this started. At a veterinarians, he got a physical and all shots needed, including a dog tag for her. From Petsmart, he bought a large bag of dry & wet dog food, then had a dog tag made saying Karma's a bitch and couldn't helping laughing a little bit as it got finished. Now, for the ride back to his original state.
He pulled into a rest stop about 30 miles out of town, then unhitched the VW bus, standing there for several minutes thinking this over. Did he REALLY want to kill the cops and others who were either directly associated with their sons murder, those who tried covering it up and as an off shoot, his wife committing suicide? He did, because unless he acted he couldn't consider himself a man, husband, father and patriot which was a word he never spoke of. Patriotism comes from the heart, doing something about it and not just talking about it. He left Karma in the motor home as he hoped she'd bark if someone came snooping around. Forty-five minutes he was in town and scouting out the police station and it's lot with vehicles in the back of it. Reconnaissance and knowledge of his targets were the first things he needed as he needed to know when his targets would be going to and coming from work along with finding out where they lived. Never parking in the same place each day, but always with an eye on the building and its back lot while listening to his police scanner and listening to what the cops were doing, where they were going, then returning to Karma several times a day to make sure she and his motor home were safe. He'd move the motor home to a different parking spot before the day ended and after fixing supper for them both, take Karma for a walk around the rest area. After 2 weeks of reconnaissance and many notes, he was ready.
Hugh parked on the second story of the cities parking garage which was 200 yards from the police station and out of sight of its building mounted cameras. Hugh popped open the roof of his VW bus camper and pulled back part of the velcro backed bug screen and carefully set his Savage A22 semi automatic .22 magnum rifle with its bi-pod on its roof and began his wait for the first of many targets he hoped to even the score with. Twenty minutes later, he got more than expected. He had expected to see John Askin and William Allen walking out of the station on their way to their cars munching on their doughnuts and drinking their coffee like he had seen them doing time after time with only 5 minutes or so difference of them coming out of the police station. But then there was William Agustus Bowles right behind them and when he saw there were no other cops in the parking lot, he believed it was karma making it so. It was easier and quicker than he thought and stood there for several seconds in shock. It wasn't shock from killing these three as he'd killed before in combat, but realizing how easy cops could be killed. He saw that his 3 empty rounds were inside the VW having practiced this before in Nevada. He quickly put his rifle on the floor of the VW camper, closed the bug screen and after pulling down the camper top, locked it into place. Two minutes later, he was leaving the parking garage, away from the police station and back to the rest stop where Karma and his motor home waited for him...with AC/DC playing Shoot to kill and hearing that one line of “got my gun ready and firing at will”, though the lyrics were meant as something else obviously. So much for those 3 killing their son with 17 bullets, saying we thought his cell phone was a gun and we feared for our lives. If it hadn't been for someone video recording all of this from their home and posting it on Youtube, it would have been swept under the rug.
After hitching the VW to his motorhome, when he opened its door, Karma was happy to see him and wanted to go for another walk, but he told her no and that it would have to wait. He then left the rest area, headed back for Nevada where he would stay at several hotel/casino parking lots and the 2 rest areas in Winnemucca for 2 months while keeping track of the news via his lap top and the free wifi provided basically everywhere. Once again with Nevada so wide open, it was no problem finding another place to continue his target shooting. He mainly kept checking on his former newspaper on news about the killings of the 3 cops. Of course, ALL were outstanding law enforcement officers, years of dedicated service, blah, blah, blah. Nothing about them killing their son or the law suits and complaints that had been brought against them thru the years. And of course, the major news people (CNN, NBC, etc.) carried the story for awhile, saying it was a copy cat killing like that black ex G.I. did in Dallas, Texas a few years ago. They TRIED making it a racist thing, but 2 of the cops were black, the other white, so that didn't last long. It wasn't until 4 days later the police figured where the shots came from and of course, found the three 1” blind lady of justice bracelet charms he had left on the parking lots wall. No fingerprints of course, having used nitrate gloves and rubbing alcohol to remove any trace of that. But his lady of justice didn't have blindfolds. Justice ignored would no longer be denied.
During this time, he learned whoever had Karma before, had taught her a few tricks such as begging, roll over, etc. and found she was an excellent guard dog as the one time he was returning to his motorhome, he heard her barking quite loudly. He started running to the motorhome, just in time to see someone making the mistake of opening the motorhomes door. Karma FLEW out of it and right at the wanna be thief. Karma really tore into him with him kicking the wanna be thief a few time, then he called her off and fussed over her, telling her what a great dog she was. The hotel/casino cameras in the parking lot saw everything, with security coming out to apprehend the thief until the 2 county sheriff deputies arrived. Hugh declined to prosecute IF he could have Karma provide a more suitable form of justice which they agreed to. The thief took off running and after being about 50 feet away, Karma was sicced on him for 3 minutes, then called back. Nevada law enforcement have a different sense of justice than what his former home town cops had....especially when it came to them hearing Karma's name. But now that he was known, the next day he bid adieu to Winnemucca, this time heading for Fallon. It was in Lovelock while refueling at a truck stop, he had a truck driver asking if he'd be interested in buying a cb. It was in excellent shape, worth $200 which he verified by seeing the same unit being sold in the truck stop store, so after some dickering, he bought it for $75. Cost him another $50 to have it and a antennae installed by one someone who did this for a living at the truck stop. This is when he decided to buy another cb of the same model and of course, antennae to be installed in his VW.
Two months after the first shooting, he was back doing reconnaissance again, this time on the cities district attorney who refused to prosecute those 3 cops who killed their son. Then there was the mayor who did his best to drag the lawsuits out in hopes of discouraging him and the chief of police who kept insisting that the video of the shooting wasn't being shown in full and it was a conspiracy by people(s) unknown to besmirch the good names of these law enforcement individuals and those nation wide. The chief was the first to go because when you cut the head off a snake, the body twists and curls, unable to do anything. With the camper top once again open, the chief was shot in the side of his head having finished breakfast and exiting one of the local diners as the skull bone is thinner on the sides of the skull. He was shot from 200 feet with Hugh using his Henry H001 lever action and with .22 short ammo used, there was no noise of the shot being fired. Hugh quickly left the scene simply by pulling out onto the street and down the road. Twenty minutes later, it was the district attorneys turn as he left his mistresses house. Hugh had the decency to wait until she was inside and the D.A. was unlocking his car which was parked “discreetly” several hundred feet from that house. That evening it was the mayors turn, who was killed as he walked to his home. None of his wifes Sloppy Joe's and fries for supper that night. Once he was back at the rest area and hooked up again, Hugh took off to be out of state asap, while making sure he was doing the speed limit or just under it. Cruise control made things so much easier.
Once again, 3 unblinded lady justice figures were left behind and this time, EVERY newspaper, tv news station, etc. were talking about it once they were found. Then things started coming out of the woodwork such as the D.A.'s infidelity to his wife and their 4 children. The kickbacks the mayor had been receiving from those with city contracts and the chief of police covering up more than one abuse by one of his “outstanding law enforcement officers”. The first pebble was rolling down the mountainside and with it, knocking other pebbles free.
---------------------------------- Thank you for your condolences on my Dads death. Since then, I've had NO interest in writing more The Shadow chapters, though no doubt I will some time in the unknown future. Chapter 30 on it is 3 1/2 long. Started writing this yesterday(?) and hope to make it a serial kind of story if you will. Note this one is part 1, chapter 1 and I may end up mixing chapters, so this character may not be heard from say, 4 different parts down the road. So part 2 may be a story about a woman, part 3 a retired cop and 4 a teenager, with me returning to Hugh as an example being part 1, chapter 2. Oh, and couldn't find an unblinded lady justice figure, so this one will have to do. Attachments:

Yea and verily, sir, a good start indeed. As far as The Shadow goes, hell, I've been hopin' that we'd see Manic Mechanic finished for how long now? If'n he hasn't gotten around to that one yet and I haven't given up hope, I can sure be patient about seein' what's gonna happen to them poor boys. Really, though, "Karma's a bitch" is pretty low hangin' fruit, ain't it? Sheesh... some guys got no shame. Maybe that's why you write so well.

2nd American Revolution Part 2 Chapter 1 Two months after the murders of 3 police officers in another state, another pebble came loose to start bouncing and rolling downhill of the mountainside. William (Billy) Prescott woke up in his home south of Bisbee, Arizona which is in Cochise county and 92 miles southeast of Tucson. His ranch (5 generations) was on the Arizona and Mexican border and 6 months earlier he and his family were to pay the cost of an open border that liberals were so fond of. On that day 6 months earlier, he had been repairing several sections of barbed wire fencing that coyotes (human smugglers) had cut thru so groups of illegal aliens could pass thru his property on their way to Tucson and other parts of America. When he returned home for supper that afternoon, he quickly realized something was wrong as there was no normal barking of Tojo who ALWAYS was running up to greet him. Billy always carried his AR-15 with him because sometimes the 4 legged coyotes were a problem messing with his cattle, especially at calving time. Not that they had that many cattle, with just under 1,000 feeding over their range which was a little over 8,000 acres. And of course, he lost at least one cow a year due to the 2 legged coyotes who would kill it for the food. Not that the entire cow was eaten, adding insult to injury. Inside their home, he found the bodies of his wife Martha and their maid/cook Maria who had been raped, then murdered. The place had been ransacked, with personal items taken such as the silverware he had bought Martha on the 1 year anniversary of their wedding. The 9 gold Mexican pesos his father had found decades ago and displayed in a glass and wood case were also missing. He covered Martha and Maria with bed sheets, telling them he had to leave and hoped they understood. He knew when he put his hand to his wifes shoulder, they had been dead for several hours at least, but there was still time. From the footlocker stored in the attic, he got his small Alice backpack he'd worn for 2 years in Vietnam and took things he knew he needed such as three of the old WW 2 metal canteens in their canvas holders with 1of them holding the butterfly metal cup he'd cooked more than one meal in or just a cup of coffee. The 3 uniforms he set aside, but his boots were still very use able and then of course, there it was....his Remington model 700 with its Redfield scope with Martha's name carved into the stock on one side, In God We Trust on the other. That Vietnamese wood worker knew how to do things right and only cost him $3 in American money. It always gave him comfort having Martha next to him in one way while doing 2 tours in Vietnam as a sniper. Then out came both Kbars, one issued to him by the Army, the other given to him by his father during his time in the Marines in south Pacific and later, Korea. He didn't bother testing the sharpness as he knew how sharp they were when he packed everything away decades ago. Two Smith and Wesson revolvers and shoulder harness were next along with ammo for them all. Then it was packing some items he knew he'd need, not that the pack was stuffed. From the kitchen, he went to the stable where he saddled their 2 horses (Whiskey and Scotch), adding 4 large water bags to Scotch as he knew the 3 of them could quite possibly consume a lot of water until it was over. Several bags of oats were also taken. He thought the horses some how KNEW they were not going out for a normal hour or so ride. Leading them from the barn, he saw tire tracks which were different than the normal ones his few vehicles had, which lead in the direction of federal land to the east. He quickly hooked his horse trailer to his Travelall with its 4 wheel drive and locking hubs, then put the horses in the trailer. Who ever they were, they were not using the regular roads, but paths pioneer wagons had made back in the 1800's on their way further west. He wanted to go balls out, but couldn't because of the horses in the trailer. Shortly after being on federal land by at least 5 miles, he came across several water barrels that the liberals from Tucson would fill to help illegal aliens attempting to get into America along with canned food. With his 2 collapsible canvas buckets, he watered both horses from these plastic barrels and did his best to drink as much as possible himself while also wetting down his clothing to help him cool off in the still scorching heat. He dug holes under each water barrel so that hopefully, the animals in the area would have a chance to use the water. He lined the holes as best as he could with the plastic garbage these people seemed to just casually throw on the ground, then with his Kbar, he stabbed the barrels draining them of water making them useless. Naturally there was no food to take, but he did find 3 empty bottles of liquor, brands he recognized and used to have in their home. This made him smile (which was not a nice one) because he knew drinking alcohol and being in the hot sun, they would sweat profusely, making them even thirstier. Those tire tracks he had been following lead off to one direction: Mexico which was only 2 miles away. He found their high lifted Jeeps radiator impaled on a metal stake that had been pushed over from the Mexican side. He thought the driver had been drinking and could see where the Jeep had skidded a bit in the loose sand and veering to the left for impalement. Seeing sets of footprints headed for the Mexican side, Billy quickly unloaded the horses and started following their trail which showed them weaving back and forth probably from drinking his liquor. This was confirmed when he found 2 more empty bottles of liquor. It was about 2 hours later while checking the country from a hillside with his binoculars that he saw them...6 laying in the shade of several large saguaro cactus 500 yards or so away. Using his laser range finder, he was glad to find out his original guess wasn't that far off as his targets were only 492 yards away. From his saddle scabbard, he drew his loaded his Remington 700. After making himself comfortable on the hillside, he shot each man with none having a chance to run away or conceal themselves from his shooting. From the shots he made, he knew they were dead men and all he had to do was wait an hour during which he gathered his expended rounds and then calmly walked to the bodies. He took his possessions back, along with what money and pistols they had. After pulling down their pants, he cut off their cocks and balls, leaving them in each of their mouths, then cut an ear from each of them which he put in one of their shirts. The ears and shirt were laid next to a large ant hole about 75 feet away, then dragged each body so they formed a circle around the ant hill. As to the remaining 3 bottles of empty liquor, they went with him to be disposed of by throwing them far away as possible and hearing them break. He rode his horses back and after watering them again, he put them in the trailer and he headed back home where he called the sheriffs department which took almost an hour for the first unit to arrive. Of course, the perps as the deputies called them were never caught, but Billy wasn't satisfied and started thinking things over and planning. Their 6 kids came out for the funerals with Martha and Maria being buried in the family plot as all of them had been since the 1800's. Tojo was buried next to Martha which he figured she would of liked since eventually would be too. The boys patrolled the range and the countryside for 2 weeks with all of them telling him it was too dangerous for him to continue living here, especially alone considering he was 72 years old for Gods sake. He had money in the bank but figuring he'd need more, so after they left he started rounding up his cattle and selling them, most of the time at a break even price, maybe a little more. He was paid in cash, then started with drawing cash from his savings account where his social security and Army retirement checks had been deposited thru the years. He had a satellite dish installed on his place close to 30 years ago, mainly for the kids an d their cartoons and for him to watch the news to find out what was going on in the world. Then came the internet which while slow, it got the job done which was gathering information about crimes illegal aliens committed in the U.S. along with those liberals and their open borders; no wall needed between the U.S. and Mexico attitudes. His school size notebook got filled with names, addresses and photos of these people either directly or indirectly involved aiding illegal aliens. This was all done over a 2 month period and in the evenings he'd be in his rocking chair on the porch, looking thru the Bible for some kind of help and guidance. Now Martha (God bless and rest her soul along with Maria's and Tojo's) was big into the Bible, but he never was after seeing the inhumanity man had for each other in Vietnam. Now it was time for payback, first starting with those who had replaced the water barrels and placing food for those illegals. He was on Whiskey when he came up upon them that day because they had a schedule of coming out every week to replenish everything. After making sure no one was around, he simply rode up to them and without saying a word shot all 5 (3 women, 2 men) with his AR-15. Then after dismounting, calmly shot each in the head with his .38. He took all their money including their wallets, purses and jewelry, then calmly mounted Whiskey leading him into Mexico and eventually back to his place. He wasn't worried about horse tracks as he had made and placed gunny sack socks for Whiskeys hooves along with his own boots. With the socks on, no hoof or boot prints were made that could actually be followed. And again, no brass was left behind. Two days later, one of the sheriff deputies came out, asking if he'd heard any gun fire, which Billy hadn't heard of course. Then after being told what had happened, he told the deputy said it looked like Mexicans again and that's all he said. It was enough as the deputy agreed with him. The money he kept to buy supplies with, while the wallets, purses and jewelry went into his 55 gallon burn can. Now he was ready for the second stage of his plan, with him buying a Barnett .50 caliber, bolt action rifle which he bought in Phoenix along with 2 boxes of ammo. At other gun stores and Walmart, he bought 600 rounds total ($5 per round), along with 2 scopes. One for the Barnett, the other an infrared one for his Remington 700, both costing over $9,000. For the next two weeks he practiced with both weapons day and night, killing coyotes and rabbits up to 3/4ths of a mile away while writing down everything in his new range book. When the .50 caliber round hit either animal, basically nothing was left. Then while checking out Youtube, he started watching videos about things called drones which not only sent you pictures of what it was seeing, there were those with infrared ability. From Ebay, he bought everything he needed along with one of those smart phones so he could fly it. It crashed more than once before he got the hand of it, but the drone was able to take the damage from the crashes, but still keep flying afterwards though he had to order 3 props to replace the damaged ones along with 4 more as spares just in case. Had his Travelall serviced, then had his boys take turns to look after his place as he said he wanted to take a couple of weeks off if they didn't mind. They didn't. From Bisbee, it took him several days before reaching Sacramento, stopping either at a rest stop or an exit ramp on the freeway. He got showers for $10 while refueling at several truck stops on his journey. With free WiFi basically everywhere he went, he kept updated on what Nellie Popsi, head Democrat was doing in thwarting the Presidents constant push on deporting illegal aliens quickly as possible and of course, building a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. Thru the net and Youtube, it was no problem finding out where she and her husband lived in the Bay area, along with having a cinder block wall surrounding their home. Apparently what was good for her was not good enough for America. He was cutting it close time wise as he only had 2 days before she was going to have a fund raiser for some liberal friend of hers. Among the guests would be the newly elected governor of California and the former governor, both liberals who didn't mind giving illegals all the benefits of citizenship while hundreds of thousands of Americans were homeless and living in tents when not being rousted by the police to leave. He was shocked to find that San Francisco paid $35,000,000 in 2018 clean up trash, human waste and drug paraphernalia from its streets. Billy found a dirt road which took him to the top of a hill and in the distance, he could see the Golden Gate Bridge. It was no problem in flying his drone from a distance to get a better view of Nellie's home and security which took 2 trips because the batteries were only good for 15 minutes. The next day he was back waiting and ready to go about 45 minutes after the fund raiser had started, this time with his Barnett loaded. In 2 minutes, Nellie, her husband and both governors (current & retired) were dead. In 3 minutes, he was down the road and in 7, on the car jammed freeway headed for Sacramento and stopping in Reno where he stayed at a Motel 6 to watch the news. Along with the designated targets being killed, 6 others were killed, including that traitorous bitch Julie Fondo and her trip to North Vietnam. The others he didn't know, but apparently were liberals also supporting Nancy's no wall policy which made him feel even better. All he cared about was making sure none of the hired help would be hit by his shots. The next day he went to Pep Boys where he bought 5 new tires and a set of ramps. They offered to mount his tires, but told them he had a friend who could do it. Taking the Travelall to a car wash, he popped the hood, then proceeded to wash the entire interior of the engine compartment to remove any and all dust that may have been picked up on that hillside road by Nellie's home. Once satisfied with his work, drove the Travelall up the ramps, then proceeded to spray the entire undercarriage, wheel wells, etc. When that was done, he finished the exterior, then after washing the ramps, loaded those into the Travelall and proceeded down the road to south of Hawthorne where he pulled over for the night. In Tonopah, he had his new tires mounted which had a different tread pattern than the ones he had been running with. They were disposed of simply by driving down a dirt road and tossing one tire after another about a mile apart and 30 some feet from the road where they would never be seen. It was during this time he checked the news and of course, the police found the 4 blind lady of Justice he had left hanging from a bush. He thought it would be a good idea to leave a false trail for the cops to follow after hearing about them from the earlier news casts about the mayor, etc. being killed. He couldn't find the same ones the killer had used, but the ones he had bought would do just fine. Now the media was saying a rogue assasin or a group of conspirators was roaming the countryside killing innocent, law biding people willy nilly. Seven days days after the shooting, he was home which took him a little longer than expected because he felt tired for some reason. Not trusting himself to drive while feeling that tired, he'd pull over to take a 30 minute or so nap before continuing. His youngest boy was there waiting for him. Billy told his son that he'd gone to a desolate place and able to do some soul searching. His son offered to help him unload the Travelall, but Billy told him to get back to his family, which he did. The next day, Billy unloaded the Travelall, putting all the weapons and ammo in his foot locker in the attic except for the Barnett. For that, he used an old piece of canvas to cover it up in which he wrapped his notebook and range book inside of it. The drone he left in the livingroom as he'd had a lot of fun with it and planned on playing with it some more, something he was sure was going to surprise his kids. And of course, the grandkids would want to play with it too. Then he went to talk with Martha, telling her what he had done from the beginning and he felt a breeze touch each cheek. It was like Martha and Maria caressing him and telling them in their limited way, thank you. That evening, he was going thru her Bible and this time found what he was looking for: Proverbs 21:15---When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers. He liked that so much that he underlined it with his pencil, though he knew if Martha had been around, she'd of raised hell about desecrating her Bible like that. Three days later, his 3rd boy came by to see how he was doing as several voice mails had been left on Billy's phone, but no one had gotten a reply back. It was then he found their father dead from a heart attack, but with a look of peace on his face and the Bible being opened with that one verse underlined. Attachments:

No, bathrooms have running water, hot and cold. This is the modern day version of the old wooden outhouses, but not biodegradable along with no Sears & Roebuck catalog for reading entertainment and "paper work".

Good stuff, sir. As you may've noticed, I seem to bear more than a slight bit of resentment towards that commie bitch.

Yeah, kind of, sort of figured that one out. Was stationed at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma first working the base pbx, then comm center where my bud & I were the only Air Force guys working there. The others were all civilians. Volunteered for Vietnam, not because I wanted to kill a commie for mommy, but find out what was REALLY going on vs the slants the newspaper, tv and military was giving out. Working the comm center was like working at Western Union (anyone remember that company?), but with a lot of classified information being distributed to various units on base. I read what I could while on working graveyard. My family lived in Calif. at the time, while his was only 2 hours away north of Tinker. So he was home every weekend. HE gets chosen for Vietnam, while I'm not?! We both tried getting his orders changed since I was volunteering and he wasn't....forget it. Once the military decides something, it's engraved in stone.
Working on part 3, chapter 1 which is 3 pages now. When it'll be submitted, no idea. Just adding things to it, then will have to read it several times so my ducks are in a row along with checking some things out on Google and Youtube. Part 4 MAY be a husband and wife story...not sure about that as thinking of already altering what happens to them and only a vague idea on why they turned "terrorists". Already have a list of good/bad guys (31/27) which includes women for many chapters and have many more available.
Remember "we were dead broke when we left the White House"? "I did not have sexual relations with that woman". DOJ smuggling guns into Mexico. Senators/Congressmen who have made payoffs for unwanted sexual advances to women, using taxpayer money for this? And of course, never reported to or by the news media. Crooked/bad cops...lots of examples on Youtube. How about illegal seizures of money by cops because it may be drug related when (for example) one guy won it big at a Nevada casino, but it was seized in another state. Cops attacking someones home, killing someone only to find out they were at the wrong address? Cops killing the family dog even though videos show the dog was NOT aggressive. So called "good cops" doing their best to keep another cop on the job even though they know he's guilty. And of course, there's no civilian review board checking these cops out and police always have "things under investigation" in these matters. As you can imagine, with all this going on, there's potentials for hundreds of stories. And cops that do get fired, they simply find another cop job in another city or state....just like the Catholic Church as done for its pedophiles, sending that Father to another parish so he can molest more children.

Actually, WU is still in business. Just a few years back, they took my credit card info over the phone from somebody else, to the tune of $2500, plus almost 100 bucks in "currency conversion fees" but I never found out to which country the money went. Noticed it just a couple of days after it happened (check your bank stuff frequently, folks) and my bank took care of me, but it ain't a good feelin' to see that show up when you go online to keep track of your expenditures.

I have a Visa from Citi and they stay on top of questionable transactions. They'll be on the phone to me in minutes of anything out of the ordinary.
"Did you purchase something in the gift shop at XXX Motel in Podunk, Iowa?" "No." "We'll take care of it."
If I had reserved a room at that motel in advance, they wouldn't have questioned it because 99% of the time, we reserve and guarantee rooms. No room guarantee on the card? They will call to check if it's me on any other purchase at that location. Sometimes it's the hassle of them having "Toll Free Call" as their Caller ID - which we always ignore. Unlike the sellers with toll free numbers, Citi does leave messages about unknown transactions.

Have been with Wells Fargo for 20 years or so, basically because their branch is a mile from home. Use the credit card for what I call brownie points. You get points for every time you use it, redeemable at many places. I've used my points only on Amazon for silicone ($24.99) to make molds with for my model building. Was checking Ebay with the thought of ordering something from my wish list, or previous orders as I couldn't remember where it was at. In previous orders, find someone's gotten my credit card info and ordered a little over 5K worth of merchandise?! One was a digital camera for example. Immediately contacted EVERY seller saying I had not authorized that purchase, then to Paypal, saying the same thing. Next day at the bank telling a manager what had happened. Took a week or two for the bank to clear everything up and get me a new credit card.
Now one thing I do after using the credit card, is pay it off immediately from my checking account. This way I am debt free and get the brownie points. I also check it to make sure the payments have been accepted because sometimes it takes 2-3 days for the bank to process this payment. Bought something and 4 days later, find someone's charged my new card for $19+. Now, some times I forget to pay and was going to write this off until I saw it was used at Food Supply, a supermarket chain in the west. Hadn't used the card in those 4 days and also had NEVER used it at this supermarket. Once again, call the bank and another week or two before new card arrives and charge taken off my credit card.
Only problem I ever had was driving otr, using my debit card. Buy something in Utah, then something in Illinois for example where it was declined. Talked with banks customer service and told them what had happened. Once they understood I would be using it all over the U.S., no further problems except from time to time. At least the banks customer service was available 24/7.

When I've had to have a card replaced, Citi has gotten the new card to me in 24-48 hours. I currently have the Visa as my primary card because it's the Costco ID and it gives 1-2-3-4% cash back on various types of purchases at many locations. Typically that's about $200/year. We pay the card in full each month, on-line and a week+ ahead of the due date.
When we went to the UK 15 years ago, my primary card was a Mastercard so we called them ahead of time and said we'd be there and traveling most of the time for 3 weeks. Never had a problem with the card while we were there.

Yep, credit cards can be a positive with $$'s back.... $$'s back were over $1,000 last year.... We pay for everything that we can on credit cards for the $$'s back.... Pay off every month...
Get text messages and emails when the our credit cards are used.... The text messages generally show up before I leave the store....
Bought a mixer this CHRISTmas as a gift and it was not delivered.... Visa credited my credit card back and sent me a new card.... The bad thing is having to change the card number on all of the automatic payments....
The biggest problem we ever had with a credit card was with a Discover card that I ordered new cards for my wife and I.... The wife got her card in the mail, but my did not show up.... The wife, the boys and I went shopping on a Saturday and I filled the suburban with fuel...
Got home and there was a message on the answering machine asking me to call Discover fraud department.... I called them and they said someone had charged nearly $15,000 in Las Vegas on clothes, getting money and other sundries.... I informed them that I had not been to Las Vegas and that I did not make the charges since I just charged fuel in Lewisville, Texas, which their computer would show.... I had ordered new cards for the wife and I and her card came in, but my card did not come in.... It had to be someone at Discover that grabbed my card and took it or sent it to Las Vegas.... Requested that they inform me what they found, but they never did....
Discover ate all of the charges and sent us new cards with new account numbers....
Credit cards are great if used wisely....

Texican… Tex, you sound like a disciplined consumer but in America, the marketers and the government have a vested interest in indebting the nations population. To that end they target all their advertising towards convincing consumers that they need whatever they are selling, NOW. Cheap easy credit is the method and in this the government is complicit. Ask yourself why the FED rate is so low? Indebtedness is bondage and should the government ever become insolvent, what happens to the millions who are also in over their head? Has anyone ever stopped to wonder why nations like Canada and the United states who owe more than their GDP and can barely pay their interest are still running deficits in the order of 10 percent of total revenue but still have a triple AAA credit rating. What would a citizens credit score be if they were in the same situation? Getting consumer loans, great but try to get a mortgage with this scenario. You see, the bank has only the house for collateral while the others have the individual for collateral. The government puts up its ability to tax as collateral. Both cases, the individual liberty is the collateral. I get my check, put in in the bank and take everything back out except for what is needed to pay my fixed bills and taxes. I pay cash for everything. No paper trail, no debts either. I save every receipt and write on it what and where the purchase is made for my taxes should my company get audited again. Do my year end income statement and balance sheet on paper and file a hard copy tax return. Our policy is if I don't have the cash to pay for it, we don't get it. We have one credit card to rent a car or reserve a hotel room if necessary but that is it. Because we have no debt, not even a mortgage we could go without income for six months and lose nothing. When I have enough saved I intend on installing a hybrid windmill/solar panel electrical grid sufficient to power several homes. Currently you can sell excess back into the grid but they just reduced the amount you can sell to discourage small power producers from enjoying the benefits of economies of scale and profiting from selling electricity.

The solar and windmill dealers will show you charts of "expected" solar hours and wind speed hours, but you need to find independent sources for those numbers.
My solar power system is a "Wait until daylight" backup generator, not full time power, so the fact that the useful sun hours at my location do NOT match what the sellers claim doesn't affect me greatly - it just means that I've had to work out how much solar energy we actually receive and make changes in the design to allow for that. That's not a problem (other than annoyance and a little $$) for me but it would be a major problem if solar was my primary power source.
You'll also encounter solar panels that only reach their "rated" power under factory test conditions and don't reach 75% of that rating in the real world. I've also encountered some panels that do very well in the real world (250 watt Jinko panels that deliver 235 watts in the sun behind my house - that's 94% of the rated power and probably the best I've tested).
Caveat Emptor - and do your research.

The 2nd American Revolution Part 3, chapter 1
With 2 pebbles now bouncing and skipping down the mountain side, came a 3rd which caused more to follow suit. George Rogers Clark was a grocery store clerk working full time at a Safeway market, restocking shelves, helping to unload trucks and stack groceries in the back of the store as they were delivered to the store every other day. With the high cost of living in the Sacramento area, he now worked almost full time as a cashier at one of the Golden Gate gas stations/convenience stores and just barely making it due to his landlord raising his rent a 2nd time in 3 years. More than once he wanted to leave the state he had lived in all his life because of laws passed by liberals. He had come to hate it, especially when it came to illegals getting free housing, food, etc. while he was busting his ass working, along with the former and current governors boon-doggles of a high speed train from San Francisco to Los Angeles and the tunnels which would drain even more water from the Sacramento Delta area so that Los Angeles could continue growing in size. When he heard of those murdered by “an unknown and cowardly terrorist”, he did the unexpected: going to a local bar he had never been to, to have several drinks as a way to celebrate. Fortunately, the bar was only a few block away from his apartment complex, but one he'd never been in before. Unfortunately, he was not used to strong drink and before finishing his first drink, got tired of the liberals bullshit telling each other what a great tragedy it was. That whoever so callously and dastardly murdered those great and outstanding Americans at Nellie Popsi's fund raiser, especially those now former governors and Julie Fondo, an actress of which no one could ever replace, should be publicly hanged, electrocuted, etc. He was savagely beaten by 9 of the patrons while the bartender/owner stood behind the bar making and serving drinks while telling everyone don't kill the white privileged male fascist bastard, just give him a taste of what's going to happen to him and others like him in the future at our next rally and when we run the government. What was “funny” was basically everyone there was white, like him.
George was found by a patrolling police car several hours later in the alley next to the bar with his wallet missing, which meant he had to replace his drivers license, social security card, etc. which took him almost a month, along with dealing with the California DMV clerk (Hispanic) who was quick to help several illegals in line behind him who could not speak English. Now he knew Spanish because it was required to learn how to speak it in school when he was younger as the state did not want to deny anyone a right to an education even though most of the time with so many illegals now in school, he was surprised to have learned anything in English. The trip to the hospitals emergency room via ambulance totaled $4,000 for his 2 days there and that was AFTER using Safeways health insurance deductible which was $1,500. He called the store manager who was great in understanding what had happened and made sure the hospital and ambulance people knew whom to charge for all of this. Both jobs did allow him to cash his paycheck at the jobs, something that wasn't normally done until he had his license and social security card which he had sent to Safeway as he had lost mail while at the apartment complex.
However, his landlord was NOT so understanding in why he couldn't make next months rent in full. He was told that if he didn't get it in full, the owner of the place would nail his hide to the wall and he'd be out on his behind too. This was a lie as George had found out that the landlord was also the owner shortly after moving in several years ago. All George could say was okay and gave notice that he was moving out when the “apartment manager” hit him with another one: he was required to give 30 days notice before moving out and since rent was due in 19 days, he would NOT be getting his $1,000 deposit back. Period. If you look on Facebook, Twitter and other social medias, you can find many people who are angry, when they're really not. A better term is upset. Now some people don't forgive and forget and when they get angry, they not only want payback, but demand it. Squared.
Now before all this started, California legislators had passed a law requiring everyone to have a permit to buy ammo. That's when he started supplementing his income by going to Cabela's on the outskirts of Reno, Nevada and buying as much ammo he could afford to, then selling it to people with a 20% mark up over what he had paid for it, including tax. While he didn't make that much considering his time and cost of gas in driving to Reno, every little bit helped his savings. Suddenly, he had a small business going. He always sold it to people he knew and sold it at places where if any cop was trying for a sting, they would stick out. While some complained about his higher than normal prices, he said fine....don't buy from me and get your ammo license so you can buy as much as you want. And enjoy the thought the state knowing how much ammo you've bought. Everyone continued to buy from him which increased his savings bit by bit but between that and his 2 jobs, it wasn't enough to cover his rent as his 2 paychecks wouldn't be given to him until several days after rent was due.
So he started going thru his few possessions, selling his 19” flat screen tv, original Xbox, games and other things he had been able to buy thru the years thru Craigslist. Maybe all these things weren't much, but it had taken him a lot of hours of working to buy them, even used. However, the one possession he would NOT sell was his recurve bow which was break downable as it had been a gift from his biological father before he had left home at the age of 14 after a final fight with his step father. It was rough those first few years, learning first hand what it was like to be homeless and killing 2 men on 2 desperate occasions when they tried raping him when he was just existing on the banks of the Sacramento River. He took what money they had, along with their I.D.'s, then rolled the bodies into the river. Between using trout lines in the river, scavenging aluminum cans and plastic bottles like energy drinks came in, he survived. What helped him during this time was finding an adults bicycle that someone had either left behind or more probable, stolen. With the bike, he was able to extend his search and carry more cans/bottles for recycling. He still had that bike and no intention of ever selling it. And the pigs were always a fuckin' hassle and always looking for some reason to thump you because they had the badge and gun. So he learned to always be on the watch for them and got to where it only took him a couple of minutes to pack what few things he had and haul ass down a bike path on his bike. Not much to show for living on his own for 9 years.
While selling his possessions, he started making plans for payback. First was getting a 3 part military sleeping bag which said it was good to -10 degrees according to the clerk. Then it was a frameless medium Molly pack from the same Army Navy surplus store, followed by some cooking gear from Walmart, then food from either Winco or Dollar Tree where he also picked up several painter tarps as cheap shelter for any bad weather. What he didn't eat at his place before being kicked out, also went into his pack not that he ever had a large stash of food in his place. At Walmart, he picked up 2 dozen arrows, along with broad head arrow heads to replace the target tips. Using a pillow case, needle and thread from Dollar Tree, he made a crude, but usable 2nd quiver. Via the libraries computer internet, he watched as many bushcraft/camping videos as he could, learning about things he hadn't known or thought of before. The landlord/owner being a dick, was knocking on his apartments door 5 minutes after midnight when rent was due, wanting his rent which of course he didn't have. He even had 2 off duty cops to back him up on his “eviction notice”. Once kicked out of his former residence, he lived in his car always parking in a different section of town, but more than once, a block or so from the 49'er a well known truck stop, where he took a shower every 3 days ($10) while working. After 2 months of working, he sold his car for about half of what he'd paid for it at a used car lot. That hurt a lot as it was his first car. He gave notice at both jobs, saying he wanted to try living in Florida. Once all that was done, he was ready to leave California but not before taking his pound of flesh with him.
Now during this time in getting ready for his payback, he found out the people in the bar were antifa's if that's the right word to use. He recognized several of them during their demonstrations shown on the tv news via the truckers breakroom tv. And while he had his car, he did all the target practice with his bow that he could at one of the outdoor ranges with the broad head arrow tips which he quickly found out had a different flight pattern than his normal target arrows. Then learning how to sharpen them after being used. He was questioned by several people about this, but he explained he was going deer hunting some time in the future and wanted to be ready to hit his target as he didn't want to wound the animal and have to chase it down. A quick, clean kill was his intent. They believed him. Wanting to know more about his former apartment manager/owner and the bar owner, he was surprised to see they both had the same last name. From city business records, he discovered they were brothers as owners of both places. Time to kill 3 birds with one stone. From a busted pallet, he made 4 wooden wedges which he hid by a dumpster along with a large rock near the bar. From Craigslist, he got 2, 3 gallon plastic gas cans for free with these also being hidden near the bar.
The bar kindly posted on the wall of the building there was going to be a meeting about the racist, white privileged people along with how everyone should have free medical care and schooling thru out college. With no one failing any course and the government paying for all of this. First one on his payback list was the bar owner. Bars closed at 4am, with the owner being the last to leave and close up the bar. The owner never thought of looking up, when George dropped from the bars roof onto the bar owners shoulders, then hitting him in the head with a brick just as the owner was getting ready to set the buildings alarm. He took everything the owner had on him, including the keys to the building. Took him 15 minutes inside the bars office to find almost $3,000 in cash which was held in a small metal cash box hidden behind several several books. Owner was too cheap to buy and use any kind of safe, thinking it was an unnecessary expense. When done, he returned to the still unconscious bar owner, using the brick to smash every finger on both hands of the bar owner. From the wallet, he got an additional $400.
Time went by with George waiting to get his next pound of flesh. Thing is, the apartment owner did his best to collect ALL rent in cash, something George never did, preferring a money order so he always had a transaction as the landlord would many times try giving him his “I forgot” to give him a receipt. George figured the owner wasn't paying income taxes (state or federal) on money made from his complex since it was in cash. He never thought to be aware of his surroundings as George had come to learn living on the streets, so it was easy to hit him from behind and take everything he had. From that action, he got a little over $25,000 in cash, plus the mans wallet, watch (Rolex), etc. A funnel and a pound of sugar was poured into his BMW's gas tank. Now George had gone back to living on the banks of the Sacramento river, where some of the people he knew still lived there. So he caught up on things, learning several of the cops had severely beaten several of the homeless...with no prosecution of them which was par for the course when you're homeless. He got names and recognized 2 of them from the time he had lived on the street and before he moved into an apartment. More information gathered while going back to his collecting aluminum cans, etc. People just saw another homeless man going about, trying to survive. This is when he went back to the Army Navy surplus store to buy some camouflaged clothing and a heavy set of military style boots. Then practiced climbing trees out of sight of everyone which was quite easy.
Two hours before the day of the bars antifa meeting was to start, George filled his 2 gas cans at a gas station several blocks away. He wore a hoodie because of the cameras all over the gas station, paying cash. Then it was taking the gas so he wasn't that far from the bar, but out of sight of everyone. Three hours after the meeting started, he jammed the front and side delivery doors shut, using the pallet wedges he had made earlier, forcing them into place with his rock. After pouring gas all around the building, lit the gas with a match, retreating to a safe distance to watch it burn, though he couldn't hear the screams of those trapped inside. The Sacramento Bee newspaper said 135 people died in the fire and obviously it was arson/murder.
Now to deal with those pigs on river patrol. Hiding 20' up in a tree, he killed 2 of them in a place where he knew they'd be alone and out of sight of anyone on that path. Why? Because the word had spread among the homeless they were coming. Wallets, guns, badges and anything else of value was taken with the bodies dumped in the river to float down stream, minus his arrows in their bodies which dug out with his $5 “survival knife” from Walmarts sporting goods section. He found out that neck shots from 40' away were very easy, resulting in death very quickly and the 2 cops unable to or thinking of calling in to dispatch. Of course there was a massive hunt for them when they didn't respond to any of the calls dispatch made to them later. Now he could listen to police broadcasts via one of their radios. The other, after having been wiped clean of fingerprints, was left near a deserted homeless camp to be found by one of them. Four days later, it was 2 more piggies going for a bath, this time even more police searching the area and “questioning” those homeless they could find. But with the newly found police radio, the homeless got smart...they left the river area completely, going to other places only they knew of and cops didn't. Then the tv and newspaper reporters got involved, with several looking for the homeless on their view of these killings. Every one of the homeless would only be interviewed with no names given or if on tv, they were heard off camera. This is when a member of the ACLU heard one broadcast because what the police were saying and what the homeless said they had been doing to them for years were 2 different stories. A class action lawsuit was brought against the Sacramento police department which took several years down the road to reach not with just a financial settlement, but immediate termination of ANY cop who turned off their body cameras for ANY reason. People were starting to demand not only an open government, but having cops being reviewed by a panel of civilians. More than one cop was terminated, but able to find themselves a job as a cop in another part of the state or another state. Others were prosecuted for constitutional rights violations, many doing prison time where they were “warmly” welcomed by inmates at that correctional facility. Some time after all of this went down, there was talk of having ALL law enforcement personal having to have a license so they could be cops, much like truck drivers have to show on their licenses they are qualified to drive a truck and tow the different types of trailer cargo. So now, these bad cops found themselves without a job as cops when terminated as the new cops request had to go thru a federal data base much like one does when purchasing a firearm thru a store.
Two weeks after the bar burning, he checked the library's internet for websites and news to find when and where there was to be a public antifa demonstration about the murders of their friends at that bar, cowardly attack on the bar owner which was done obviously by those gun totting, bible clinging right wing nuts....and of course, how the pigs obviously deserved their deaths. One thing no one expected was to be shot on that day by someone with a bow and arrows. He got off 12 shots from a roof top in just over 3 minutes with mass panic by the former demonstrators. The cops lost interest in getting the antifa people under cover when 3 of them were shot in their thighs. No kevlar down there you know. Then after breaking down his bow, took off on his bike with a poster he had made with a piece of cardboard, saying down with fascists which was securely taped to his backpack and covered his bow, remaining arrows and quivers. I mean, who's going to look for some mass shooter not only using a bow, but a bike as a get away vehicle? Seven people were killed at the demonstration, another dying on the way to the hospital. The 9th was crippled for life, having been hit near the spine. Only 1 of the cops returned to duty months later, while the other 2 had to retire. He only shot those with masks covering their faces. There were NO antifa demonstrations in Sacramento for at least 8 months and as far as he was concerned, ALL piggies were bad.
With everything packed and ready to go an hour later, he was pedaling his bike down the various roads in Sacramento, headed east towards Reno. Very rarely did he have to ride the breakdown lane on I-80 and of course, the California highway patrol gave him no hassle as it was obvious he was someone going on a camping trip, maybe even on some long distance journey. When he got to Reno, he called his dad asking if he could visit and was told of course, that he'd be welcome as he hadn't heard from him since he and his mother divorced. Took him 2 months to travel to Montana, getting there on his bike just before winter started. He got a job at McDonalds, living with his dad and catching up on what each other had been doing since George had left home. But after 3 months he got very tired of Montana's winters having been used to Sacramento's “winters”, so he joined the Marines Corps with a mos of 0300 which was infantry. This was decided after reading newspapers and seeing on tv where people were starting to violently react against what they perceived as an oppressive government which did not represent the will of the people. He decided this would give him even more valuable lessons in surviving and actual weapon usage, especially after a tour in Afghanistan or Iraq which he knew would come with his future mos being what it was going to be.
---------------------------------- Around '84(?) or so, a Reno police officer was killed by a man using a bow and arrow. Frankly, it was a lucky shot as the kevlar the cop was wearing would have very probably stopped the arrow from really penetrating. But the cop was waving his arm around and the arrow entered his left arm pit, much like Reagan got shot. He was dead before getting to the hospital due to blood l
