One of the guys at the shop bought a used truck last weekend as his boys are about to reach drivers license age…
It’s a 2009 Chevy crew cab 2500… with a 2014 GMC long bed out back…. It all lines up pretty well and is a nice truck for his kids. Clean and a good runner.
Of course it took about 30 seconds for us to name his new truck “The Mullet!” All Chevy business in front and a GMC party out back.”
I’m having a sticker made!!

Good words. The second leading cause of death on the Oregon Trail was Indians. They killed thousands of settlers. The Comanche were horrible. They defeated and then depopulated Spanish New Mexico and wiped out many Indian tribes tribes including the Apache. The Cherokee Civil War lasted for almost 200 years and in contributed to the poorness of the South. The Sioux wiped out a number of tribes when they took the Black Hills. Look up the Crow Creek Massacre. They also violated several treaties at the start of the civil war and massacred over a thousand settlers.
The point is that North America has been at war for thousands of years. And there was enough hatred and bitterness to fuel atrocities on both sides. gained a lot from the Indians. And they from us. Our first and second amendments and local democracy are part of that.
A lot of renewed scholarship is out now looking at what both sides did and gained and lost where Indians are seen as equals not victims and as both opponents and friends where cultures merged and took the best from each. And the massacres as momentary rages by bitter people. And the genocides as necessary where survival required it.
Does not make it right by today’s standards. But by yesterdays yes. And who among us would have done things any differently? Or any better?
We all know fools like Fetterman and Shakopee. And leaders like Tecumsah, Chief Joseph, and Ranald Mackenzie who made some very hard choices and did some amazing things and lived with tragedies. The full retelling of those times has yet to be done except in a few cases.
Not feeling it........
I'm more likely to be wowed these days by a Mom standing up without a mask than any of those in the painting.
Fair enough. That picture is old though and I like the sentiment even if doesn't always ring true.
A police officer radioed in to the station.
"Sarge, we have a situation here."
"Yes? Go ahead" comes back the answer.
"A woman has shot her husband for stepping on the floor she had just mopped clean."
"Have you arrested the woman?"
"No sir. The floor is still wet."
"Sarge, we have a situation here."
"Yes? Go ahead" comes back the answer.

Iirc there was a version of this with all the superheroes looking up at first responders reflecting in the smoke of the twin towers and Superman says “wow”.
Does anyone here have that image and can post it? Much more poignant imho
Actually I'd piss on it if I saw it in person.
Total bullshit, and if you buy into that, your a head in the sand dumb mother fucker.
And the black white and blue stripe American flag, that's over the top disrespect for our flag by a bunch of sheep that should know better.
Believe it or not, the way cops are wearing black or green fatigues as a uniform and that flag, did you in...
There's a real massive trust issue w you guys and you did it all yourself. The tides are turning.
We believe in a society w law and order, we believe in law enforcement officers,
We do not believe in your flagrante abuses, tides are turning and if you keep it up w those faggot portraits, the tides will turn faster.
And keep fat disgusting women w superiority problems on the force, ya, that's doing right by us.
