Back at ya! I took the day off and stayed indoors. It was 104 (Heat Index-114) here no matter what it said at the airport 60 miles away. I think their gauges are Chamber of Commerce adjusted anyway. They did break down and admitted it reached 100 on the evening news though.

OMG Obama, what have you done to my country? HS

Sorry to hear about Dallas for you Texans. May God help us.

This was terrorism. "Black lives matter" now a terrorist group. Self radicalized lone wolfs, this is domestic terrorism. HS

I have watch a lot of the coverage of this shooting.
I have not seen it called a hate crime. I have not seen the shooter called a racist.
I have no doubt I would have seen that if it were a white shooter.
I have not seen an of the organizers come out and denounce or disavow the shooting, though community leaders have have said it is sad, regretful, and other disapproving words.
Black Lives Matters has not taken a stand against violence.

"Every time a militant Islamist terrorist shoots somebody up, what does Obama do and the Democrats? They come out and they demand that there be no backlash against Muslims. Okay. So any time a police officer shoots a black suspect, why doesn't Obama stand up and warn against a backlash against cops?" -Rush

`if you see a police officer, thank him or her for the job they do.. if you are in a store or restaurant, buy them a cup of coffee. Show them we the people support them. That's my plan.

Anyone who is interested in showing support for those who defend and protect us from wrong doers, please consider putting a "thin blue line" on the back of your vehicle. I have had countless civilians and LEOs stop me to say thanks for sporting the small simple wrap below. Now more than ever, LEOs of all races need to know we have their six...

God Bless our world, God Bless America, God Bless Texas, and God Bless Dallas during these dark times. PEACE brothers and sisters!

Here is a link. Greg Hopper is a Captain with Sugar Land, Texas Fire Department. He started the fund when Darin Goforth, a Harris County Deputy Sheriff , was assassinated from behind by a t*rd at a local gas station.

They've raised almost $65,000 firstly to help Deputy Goforth's family but now to help families of all first responders lost in action.
