Monday Wrap Up 3-26

Monday Wrap Up is the last week in review.  What happened around the web that you may have missed.

In the News:

Systemic Failure of Law Enforcement 

Greg writes a great article on why law enforcement failed in Parkland where 17 kids where murdered at school.  This one was given to local law enforcement (county sheriff) and the FBI… but you know… don’t have time for that.  They where given everything but the date and time and couldn’t be bothered I guess.  Someone should have to pay with their jobs, this borders on Criminal Neglect.  Check out Greg’s take.

Some people:

Watch her commit a felony on Facebook.  Others where taken down and one was even apologized for… this one, still there.  Hello Facebook!  Your policies are attacking me, but you let someone commit a felony on your site and don’t care because… politics? If I didn’t laugh I’d cry.

15 Years ago I was a young Marine

15 Years ago this week the Iraq war kicked off and like most Marines I was on the tip of the spear.  Out in front fighting the good fight for my country and learning what true evil can look like and do.  It’s still scary today to think about some of the atrocities that where committed on their own people.  Below is the letter I got from (at the time) General Mattis commanding general of the Iraq Campaign.  And if you are interested here is a link to a bunch of pictures I have from the war.

How Americans See the NRA is beginning to be a problem

The media is definitely trying to kill off the influence of the NRA.  I think they are just afraid the NRA has more pull on public opinion then they do.  Mass media is a dying animal, a giant one.  And in there death throws it could be dangerous.  Check out the piece from Business Insider on what is happening.  And where they got their information.

How to Survive a Human Stampede 

The Art of Manliness is a great page that sometimes has some great survival and self defense stuff as well as fun manly stuff.  This article on Surviving a Stampede is worth the read and can help you if you ever get caught in a human wave.

Just for Fun… Because we need it right now.

Palmetto State Armory is selling #onemore stripped lower receivers.  It just looks like fun and who couldn’t use one more lower to build out?  Check them out here.
