When you gotta go, you gotta go. And this is something the people of Kingsland, Arkansas, are learning the hard way after a mural of Johnny Cash adorning the water tower in his hometown received the unwelcome attention of a prankster with excellent aim. Now the mural has a bullet hole in a, er, “sensitive” area, and the high-pressure leak spewing from the tower makes it look like the “Man in Black” is relieving himself in the most indecent way possible. “Somebody shot our water tower, shot the silhouette of Johnny Cash in a very sensitive area,”

The guy who shot the Man in Black was merely creating a 3 dimensional art expression from a 2 dimensional representation. If the town was smart, they'd put a tank down in the waterfall and pump it back up the tower to create a special destination for Route 66ers to deviate from the concrete whales and snake farms next to the Indian Trading Posts and adjacent casinos and cheap smokes stands.

It’s $200 each day but to drain, fix the hole and refill it’s $5000.

Seems to me a threaded bolt with Teflon pipe seal will fix it cheap. No need to drain the tank.

Humorous, yes. But the horse's ass should pay to have it repaired, plus a fine for lost water, plus some time in the county jail for being a total jerk.

The video is hilarious. But the shooter did the town harm. That place is anything but flourishing. Kingsland Council Hall (140 2nd St Kingland AZ 71652) is a tiny converted bungalow - google. I believe them when they said $5,000 is a big chunk o' change in their orbit. Given the amount of amusement this story has generated, I sent them a check toward the amount. Seems only right.

A 69-year-old-woman in Florida remembers telling a home invader to “back off” before shooting him dead, she says, as she recalled the day of the alleged invasion. The United States 2nd Amendment and Florida’s Stand Your Ground state law once again helped save two innocent lives, potentially; they certainly helped stop an alleged home burglary in progress. “Back off, dude,” are the words Orange County-based homeowner Virginia Morrison recalled shouting at the man who broke into her house in an attempted but botched robbery, according to WESH. “I fired a shot above him,” she recounted. “‘Back off, dude, I’ll shoot you.’ And he just keeps coming toward me. So I shot him.”

A pregnant Florida woman found herself in “McTrouble” Thursday after a messed up fast food order drove her to become a twerking “hamburglar.” Tiannis Jones, 22 of Lakeland, FL, had arrived at a local McDonald’s drive-thru Thursday to pick up an order placed online when she learned an error had occurred. Though the staff asked her to pull up to the next window while they corrected the mistake, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd explained that wasn’t acceptable to Jones who instead parked her car and entered the restaurant to complain face-to-face. “She didn’t get her Happy Meal or her fish sandwich or her chocolate shake, or her sweet tea,
Biden's shocking betrayal of veterans

The Biden administration’s handling of the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border is an ongoing disgrace, and recent reports suggest this White House still hasn’t reached rock bottom. The White House is considering diverting doctors and other personnel from the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) to the border once Title 42 ends (at whatever point that may be), in order to help handle the expected influx of migrants. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas confirmed this possibility during testimony before the House Appropriations Committee late last month. "The resources that the medical personnel from the Veterans Administration would allocate to this effort is under the judgment of the secretary of Veterans Affairs,
A New Kind of Child Abuse 10 replies

Until only a few years ago, child abuse was thought primarily to be hitting a child, starving a child, confining a child in a closet, not properly feeding a child, or engaging in sexual practices with a child. Now child abuse has taken a quantum leap. Child abuse now includes poisoning and mutilating a child to make him look like a member of the opposite sex, often by taking advantage of the child's trust in a parent. Stealing a child's childhood should be a crime punishable by grievous measures. Every human being has normal stages of growth. Generally speaking, those stages are infancy,

The state of Florida recently issued an emergency order to suspend operations at a Pensacola abortion clinic after a pro-life watchdog group uncovered three incidents in the last nine months in which patients had to be hospitalized with serious injuries. Florida’s Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) issued an order on Friday closing American Family Planning until an administrative hearing can be held. The order came after Reprotection, a nonprofit dedicated to catching abortion providers breaking laws and using local authorities to bring them to justice, began investigating the clinic. In all three cases, the abortionist and clinic staff failed to report patient hospitalizations within the ten days required,

One thing Democrats in the media sure know how to do is beat a word to death, and they do so collectively. In 2000, when candidate George W. Bush announced his selection of Dick Cheney as his Vice-Presidential running mate, “gravitas” was the word of the day. There wasn’t a news outlet or reporter who didn’t spend the next week belching out “gravitas” to describe why Cheney was picked, with the implication being Bush was too stupid and needed someone smart on the ticket with him. Reporters uniformly used it to death without really ever having used it before – the hive mind does not need to be ordered,

While speaking at a Georgia Democrat Party gala event on Saturday night in Norcross, Georgia, Democrat gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams, as usual, managed to stick her whole foot in her mouth when trying to make her case for reelection election as governor, as the Gwinnett Daily Post reported. She pointed to a mantra Republicans have touted for years — Georgia is the No. 1 state to do business — and contrasted it to issues such as mental health care, maternal mortality, wages and incarceration. “I am tired of hearing about how we’re the best state in the country to do business when we are the worst state in the country to live,”

Apparently continuing the method he perfected during the 2020 campaign in which his aides kept him insulated in his Delaware basement for months on end, President Joe Biden has now gone 100 days without doing an interview with reporters — mainstream liberal or otherwise. The last time the President of the United States sat down to answer questions was February 10, when Biden did an interview with NBC's Lester Holt. Meanwhile, Biden has not been too busy to take frequent long-weekend trips to his homes in Delaware, head to Asia and Europe, or travel around the country touting his few legislative agenda items

On Thursday morning in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm repeatedly refused to acknowledge that the Biden administration's war on U.S. energy had caused gas prices to rise since the president took office and started cracking down on domestic energy production. Even after Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri laid out the proof of the Biden administration's anti-fossil fuel policies that have limited supply and driven up costs, Granholm still wouldn't accept any responsibility for the soaring cost of gas as the national average for regular unleaded hit another all-time high on Thursday morning.

George Washington University law professor and self-proclaimed liberal Jonathan Turley said Friday on Fox News’ “Special Report” that Hillary Clinton will probably avoid “direct responsibility” in the Durham probe because of her “Voldemort-like status.” Apropos of nothing, but since we’re busy comparing public figures to Harry Potter characters, I would like to point out that our short-lived disinformation czar Nina Jankowicz can be compared to similarly temporary-tenured Hogwarts Headmistress Dolores Umbridge. Just sayin’. But back to the story at hand. Appearing with host Bret Baier on “Special Report,” Turley predicted Clinton would escape consequences like she always seems to.

Donald J. Trump was the best POTUS in my very long lifetime. His policies were effective, making America prosperous, energy independent, and lowering minority unemployment to record low levels. Everything he did, with the possible exception of the COVID lockdown, was quintessentially Trump; competent, encouraging, and salutary for America and her people. We were blessed to have him in the White House. Although many Americans cringed, we nonetheless put up with Trump’s coarseness and his inflated ego because he gave America back to the people.

That’s not a rhetorical question, by the way. Seriously, it’s hard not to wonder how it’s possible that Whoopi Goldberg fancies herself to be an authoritative voice on current events. Quite frankly, I can’t understand how that happened. She says a lot of dumb things. Like on Monday, she went into hysterics about the archbishop of San Francisco banning Nancy Pelosi from Holy Communion in his diocese over her pro-abortion views. “The archbishop of San Francisco is calling for speaker Nancy Pelosi to be denied receiving Communion because of her pro-choice stance,” Goldberg noted. “This is not your job, dude.

Fayetteville, Ark.—Walmart will remove its ice cream, commemorating Juneteenth amid growing backlash. Photos of the product recently surfaced on social media. "Share and celebrate African-American culture, emancipation and enduring hope," the label read. The ice cream consisted of a swirl of red velvet and cheesecake flavors.

Warped mass murderer Salvador Ramos was a failing high school loner with an 'aggressive streak', who was bullied for being poor and mocked for wearing eyeliner.That is how former classmates and colleagues have described the killer, 18, who slaughtered at least 19 innocent children in the second deadliest school shooting in American history in Uvdale, Texas on Tuesday, before being shot dead in a shootout with a border patrol officer. Described by one pupil as an 'emo', his lisp also made him a target, according to the Washington Post, with classmates claiming he endured gay slurs. Another said he was mocked for his clothing.

The windows wouldn’t go down,” Jutha said. Smoke began to fill the interior. Although Teslas have a mechanical release for emergencies, Jutha said it was not easy to use, particularly amid the panic of a potentially life-threatening incident.

K-12 schools must allow boys into girls’ private areas to obtain federal funds for lunches, breakfasts, and snacks, the Biden administration announced this month. A U.S. Department of Education spokesman told The Federalist the Biden administration’s press releases from several agencies announcing this policy will be followed by formal rulemaking in June. “It seems to be playing politics with feeding poor kids, which is really unfortunate,” John Elcesser, executive director of the Indiana Non-Public Education Association, said via phone amid weeks of attempting to sort out these new demands with government officials on behalf of private schools in his state.

But I have a different theory: that she is really stupid, and having grown up as a hot chick, she suffers from hot chick syndrome. That is, she’s just not received an adequate level of negative feedback from male authority figures necessary to correct her behavior. I think that she doesn’t think in complete sentences, and when she begins a sentence during a speech or interview That would account for this level of ungrammatical inanity: “You know, when we talk about our children, I know for this group
