🇺🇸 Andrew Jackson wasn’t the only President in a duel. Abraham Lincoln almost fought one to the death with SWORDS.
In 1842, a rival politician challenged 6'4" Abe over a mocking newspaper letter.
Because Abe was the one challenged, he got to choose the weapons.
His opponent was an expert marksman with a pistol. So, Abe smartly chose heavy cavalry swords and made a rule that neither man could cross a centerline.
Right before they started, Lincoln casually reached up and sliced a tree branch clean off above the guy's head.
The rival looked at Lincoln’s insane arm span, realized he couldn't get close enough to land a blow, and immediately called it off.
I’m gonna be real with you, I don’t think it does. People become obsessed with learning the lore of infinite fictional worlds. Most kids today know more about Middle Earth than Earth. The feelings you feel towards Aragorn were felt by medieval men towards Charlemagne. How much more useful the latter is in preserving a civilization, I’ll leave you to ponder.
Louisiana pastor beats up a man who allegedly threatened to r*pe and kill his wife and grandchildren.
Pastor Tony Spell of Life Tabernacle Church says he was working on a church bus when the neighbor's son started shouting at him.
Spell said that it is his job as the natural protector to protect his church and family.
"He said, 'Tony, I'm gonna r*pe your wife, I'm gonna r*pe all of your grandchildren,' and he said, 'The next time you go out of town, I'm gonna kill them, and what the F are you going to do about it?" Spell said.
The neighbors, the Sherwin family, claim Spell is not telling the truth, but during a press conference, Spell was backed by members of his church who say they've made multiple complaints about the Sherwin family to police.
Spell's attorney says the Sherwin family has "a large, industrial-scale camera that could see from across the street all the way into the pulpit."
Spell was hit with multiple misdemeanor summonses in 2020 during the COVID lockdowns when he refused to close his church.
"The Central City police are friends with these folks across the street. When Pastor Spell was being surveilled 24/7, it was with the help of the man across the street," Spell's lawyer said.
The pastor was reportedly arrested and booked for second-degree battery.
@HasanabiProd I've spent hours covering the UK grooming gang reports.
I have zero sympathy for people who are downplaying it and calling it bullshit.
The atrocities against those children and the years of authorities covering it up is disgusting
@HumzaYousaf “Muslims - across the UK - no longer feel safe in the only country they call home.”
And how exactly do the millions of British girls feel at home?
Vile attempts by Zack Polanski, Humza Yousaf and many others to demonise me following the release of our rape gang inquiry report will not work.
For decades the mass rape of vulnerable white girls by gangs of Pakistani Muslims was covered up exactly because of efforts like this.
It will not work anymore.
There is a clear link between religion and these abhorrent crimes that have stained on our nation for so very long.
That religion is Islam, and other politicians must finally find the courage to say so.
Threats, abuse and intimidation will not work.
We have held our hearings, the report has been published and now we move onto the private prosecution phase.
Our aim is to put rapists and their enablers in prison.
That is now our objective.
"Oh so they walked up and put a gun against that sweet baby boy's forehead and pulled the trigger as he wailed?"
"No the cop shot at a car that was coming right at him."
Democrats are literally now the pro-pond scum party. The seemingly supernatural ability Trump has to get his political opponents to defend ridiculous, indefensible positions will never cease to amaze.
