Overnight Open Thread (8 Jul 2017)

Who incites more violence, Trump or the left? Ima gonna go with the left. Democrats paid folks to start fights at Trump rally's, they have shot multiple folks including a Congressman, tried to run another one off the road, riot on college campuses. Yeah. Gonna pick the left on this one.

Obama Legacy

German intelligence: Iran seeks nuclear weapons technology. Everything about that Iran "deal" should be declassified and shown to the public for what a total disaster it is.

Leakers

This is exactly what is wrong with the media and our intelligence community. The media wants these leaks to continue national security be damned and the intelligence community wants to keep throwing a temper tantrum and try to ruin folks they disagree with politically. Why on Earth would cracking down on leakers send chills through the national security world? It is exactly the right response when you have numerous instances of very sensitive leaks of highly classified material that have endangered our sources and collection methods for political gain. If you have a clearance, you should be afraid and very careful as to how you handle it and who you share it with in your normal course of business. If you aren't, you aren't taking your responsibilities seriously. If you're doing your job right, you have nothing to fear.

I wouldn't be surprised if those docs that Maddow got last week that she said were forged are part of a honey pot type of op trying to find out who is leaking stuff. Someone might be sweating bullets now.

Dunkirk

Hans Zimmer has released the first track to the movie score for Dunkirk.

Video Games

We're losing a whole generation of young men to video games. I don't know. I do enjoy playing some games and spend a few hours a week doing it but I'm also doing many other things. As with anything you do, the key is to balance it. Bottom line, I put real life as the priority over video games.

I've actually just started to live stream some of my clans SWBF private matches and will be doing that again tonight (2 matches after 11pm EST). They do tend to be fun and usually occur after the kiddies have been tucked into bed.

CNN

Brilliant!

Suppressor Meltdown

This is what a 700 round burst out of a M249 SAW does to a suppressor.

Hamburg Rioters

Hamburg's G20 rioters are 'crazy' in the eyes of Arab refugees. Oh they noticed the police restraint did they? Something tells me we'll see this tested soon.

Europe is 'underestimating' scale of migrant crisis and could be flooded by millions unless urgent action is taken.

Western Civilization

It's true: liberals hate Western civilization.
