Here's an interesting side bar. After the Japanese decimated our fleet in Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941, they could have sent their troop ships and carriers directly to California to finish what they started. The prediction from our Chief of Staff was we would not be able to stop a massive invasion until they reached the Mississippi River. Remember, we had a 2 million man army and war ships in other localities, so why did they not invade?
After the war, the remaining Japanese generals and admirals were asked that question. Their answer....they know that almost every home had guns and the Americans knew how to use them.
1. The world's largest army ... America 's hunters! I had never thought about this....
2. A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and arrived at a striking conclusion:
3. There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin .
4. Allow me to restate that number.
5. Over the last several months, Wisconsin ’s hunters became the eighth largest army in the world.
6. More men under arms than in Iran .
7. More than in France and Germany combined.
8. These men deployed to the woods of a single American state to hunt with firearms, and no one was killed.
9. That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan 's 700,000 hunters,
10. All of whom have now returned home.
11. Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally establishes the fact that
12. The hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world. The number of Hunters in the state of Texas would be the largest standing army in the world by it's self.
13. The point?
14. America
15. Hunting -- it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's a matter of national security.
16. That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed.
17. Food for thought when next we consider gun control.
@DerLindwurm@Dodgers Dave Roberts is a below average manager who just so happens to manage the Dodgers….if he managed the Rays, Twins, Reds he would be a no name manager
A searchable database of over 20,000 individuals celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder will soon be available on our website.
It will be searchable by general location, employer, and industry type. Political violence can never be the answer.
@DodgersNation Dave Roberts with all his managerial blunders and missteps has hurt this team 100x what Sho has, he has NO standing to say this about our SuperStar. #FireRoberts
Since @ESPN won’t stop yapping about the Devers trade (he’s not even with the team yet) I recommend muting that, and tuning into AM570 on the MLB app and listening to the always great Tim Neverett 😎
ESPN broadcasts are always the worst. They easily have the worst national MLB broadcast, even worse than Apple TV. They muted an entire inning for a Jeff Passan interview and have spent the entire game talking about the Devers trade. I hate the mic’ed up players & in game interviews.
