Let this sink in for a minute…..Hundreds and hundreds of small boats pulled by countless pickups and SUVs from across the South are headed for Houston. Almost all of them driven by men. They’re using their own property, sacrificing their own time, spending their own money, and risking their own lives for one reason: to help total strangers in desperate need.

Most of them are by themselves. Most are dressed like the redneck duck hunters and bass fisherman they are. Many are veterans. Most are wearing well-used gimme-hats, t-shirts, and jeans; and there’s a preponderance of camo. Most are probably gun owners, and most probably voted for Trump.

These are the people the Left loves to hate, the ones Maddow mocks. The ones Maher and Olbermann just *know* they’re so much better than.

These are The Quiet Ones. They don’t wear masks and tear down statues. They don’t, as a rule, march and demonstrate. And most have probably never been in a Whole Foods.

But they’ll spend the next several days wading in cold, dirty water; dodging gators and water moccasins and fire ants; eating whatever meager rations are available; and sleeping wherever they can in dirty, damp clothes. Their reward is the tears and the hugs and the smiles from the terrified people they help. They’ll deliver one boatload, and then go back for more.

When disaster strikes, it’s what men do. Real men. Heroic men. American men. And then they’ll knock back a few shots, or a few beers with like-minded men they’ve never met before, and talk about fish, or ten-point bucks, or the benefits of hollow-point ammo, or their F-150.

And the next time they hear someone talk about “the patriarchy”, or “male privilege”, they’ll snort, turn off the TV and go to bed.

In the meantime, they’ll likely be up again before dawn. To do it again. Until the helpless are rescued. And the work’s done.

They’re unlikely to be reimbursed. There won’t be medals. They won’t care. They’re heroes. And it’s what they do.

Taken from a well spoken dude just like most of us

Rape is the only crime I can think of that’s 100% inexcusable.  There’s absolutely no reason for it ever.  In any circumstance.  You can murder in self defence, you can steal to help your starving family.  Even doing illegal drugs can really help calm people down.

But rape doesn’t help anyone except the rapist.  And it just baffles me to this day the way people will excuse rape with, “Well he/she was drunk” or “What was she wearing?” or “He’s a guy though, he probably enjoyed it.”

it’s the one crime that everyone should find inexcusable and yet it’s the one that people try to justify the most often.

There are reasons people are skeptical at times. It's not that people dismiss rape, but it is used as a weapon and it is used to save face very regularly. Last month, a college student called the police to report a brutal rape saying she was taken in a parking lot from behind and never saw the guy. 2 interviews later, it was a guy she knew that she was in bed with whom she had remorse sleeping with. Rape has been used against men in arguments as as act of hurting someone. Rape damages and destroys careers and reputations. Rape is serious. I have a fiance that was in a brutal relationship of beatings and rape years ago. Rape pissed men off, too. Often, it is difficult to recognize the difference in a crime of this sort and a women who can't remember after a party night, has remorse after a mistake encounter, shows a vindictive side toward a man, or even looks for victim attention. If it is to be taken as serious as it really is, it must be used and reported on when it is real.

Perhaps in specific instances, but we have processes that must be followed. The means must be performed in accordance with ethics and law to reach the end.

The problem is we are not a democracy and was never intended to be one. A mixture of poor education, propaganda, and ignorance of our local and national political elections and candidates has created a belief system on inconsistencies and falsehoods concerning businesses, our leaders, and the role of government.

I have ignored so many of these but I can't ignore them all. I am sorry, but if you see nazi's and confederates as being the same, that is just wrong on so many levels. I hate being labeled a republican because I feel people I elected to represent me have done a poor job in doing so. The civil war was not about slavery. If it were, 4 union slave holding states would also be under fire. The counting slaves as 2/3 of a person was the north refusing to recognize slaves as people when denying the South government representation. Horrific bloody riots broke out in the North when black men were exempt from the draft, while poor whites where not. I recognize atrocities were committed in the south, but the Confederacy is judged and attacked while the North is looked upon as saviors and freedom fighters. The emancipation proclamation was signed only freeing confederate slaves and was intended to prevent foreign powers from siding with the South.

I was born and raised with respect to my southern heritage, and so I must be a racist nazi in many people's eyes. I am an educated man with numerous adopted children and grandchildren including I a black son who means the world to me and black grandchildren. I don't dress in white sheets nor disrespect any person based on their color. The south represents so much more to us than people recognize. People are willing to destroy statues and attempt to erase history without regard to what these people did, only what they have come to represent. If you wish to judge and hate, at least do so after educating yourself properly. Be informed and know the history you are trying to destroy. If you still feel the same afterwards, at least you will know what you are attacking and why.

Confederate monuments promote racial tensions... history is lost to so many and those who know are afraid to argue. First, the civil war was not about slavery. Lincoln freed slaves as a strategic move to help prevent foreign countries who were nogotiating to help the south from helping. Also, union soldiers had to march through union slave holding states to get to the confederate slave holding states because the emancipation proclamation ONLY made slavery illegal in the confederate slave holding states. The war was about the lack of representation of the south. The north refused to recognize slaves as people and the south pushed for them to be counted. True, this wasn't for the benefit of the slaves, but history will show atrocities on both sides, but only the south is credited with them.

If someone asks you if your “a Gay/Lesbian/etc” in That Tone™, its okay to say no, especially if saying yes is potentially endangering to you and puts you at risk for ridicule and humiliation.

You’re not denying yourself or misrepresenting the community, you’re protecting yourself and that’s your number one priority.

Don’t feel guilty for keeping yourself safe.

[robertatkins-blog]

So I have a serious question and I have to ask people to take your personal feelings out if the situation and look strictly from a constitutional point of view. Can the federal government attack or restrict an organization or movement that based on ideology? By that thinking, if the president or government officials disagree with other ideologies, it can publicly denounce them and cities and towns can deny these groups. As for violence, protesters (in part) arrived in organized groups with sticks and other weapons to confront this radical group. Protesters planned for violence. The radical groups thrive on this attention and if they were left to simply march with only peaceful protests, the march would have never been a story. Please be careful how we allow ideology to start using government power to appease the masses. One day, the movement may be something you believe in.

No-Bake Jello Cheesecake

This is probably the easiest to make, most satisfying sweet tooth killer.

2 8-oz packages of cream cheese

1 cup boiling water

¼ cup heavy cream

1 package of jell-o (in any flavor you want. I used cherry)

In a small bowl, dissolve the Jello in the boiling water, stirring for 2-3 minutes. Put the jello in the fridge or freezer to cool it – but just to take away the heat, not until it solidifies.

In a different small bowl, whip the cream until stiff. In a medium bowl, using the same beaters used for the cream, beat the cream cheese until fluffy. Gradually add in small amounts of the cooled liquid Jello to the cream cheese, beating well after each addition. If you add the liquid too quickly, it will curdle and that’s no good. Once all of the jello is mixed in, gently fold in the whipped cream. 

Spread in a 10" casserole dish and chill for several hours or over night.

Makes 12 servings.

Per serving: 60 kcal, 3g carbs, 0g fiber, 6g protein,  2g fat, 1g sugar. 3g net carbs.

Crackslaw might be the easiest dinner ever….brown up some ground beef and fresh garlic, then add a bag of cabbage slaw, soy sauce and some cayenne for heat

*Costco sells this bag of cabbage slaw for $3.99. It comes with two packets of dressing (which I toss because sugar), and also includes a bag filled with nuts, black sesame seeds and crispy wontons (which I pick out and toss because carbs)*

Cheesy Broccoli Soup

6 cups chopped broccoli

½ cup diced onion

2 cloves of garlic minced

Throw that into a large stock pot with some butter. Cook it a bit, add seasoning

Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth (I used homemade but any kind will do)

Simmer for ten minutes or until the broccoli is tender

Add in 1 cup HWC and continue to simmer

(I added a spoonful of chicken bullion to really enhance the flavors)

Add 5 cups of cheese and turn the heat to low

(I used 3 cups shredded cheddar/jack and 2 cups extra sharp cheddar)

Use immersion or stick blender to smooth out the soup as much as you want

You can eat it like that but I found the soup to be a little thin so I added a sprinkle of xanthan gum and whisked it in….just go slow, a little goes a long way

We topped our soup with grilled chicken, bacon and cheese. Super filling

Cauliflower Grilled Cheese

Nutritional Values

494 calories per grilled cheese (2 slices + cheese) 5g (net) carbs, 45g Fat, 10g Protein

Ingredients (make 2 grilled cheese -4 slices-)

300g riced cauliflower

3 eggs

100g grated cheese (I used Edam but mozzarella or cheddar would work as well)

2 slices of preferred cheese (I used emmental)

Dash of Himalayan salt and pepper

Olive oil for the frying pan

Optional - 20g wholegrain mustard

Optional - 2g Psyllium Husk Power (helps with binding)

Instructions

You’ll need a large frying pan and an oven tray. Heat the oven to 200c and line the tray with baking paper

In a bowl mix the cauliflower, eggs, grated cheese and then add the salt and pepper, and optional mustard and psyllium. you might have to mix the “dough” with your hands.

Pour two tablespoons of dough per corner on the oven tray then flatten it whil haping it in sort of a square/toast like form.

Oven bake for about 30 minutes or until slightly browning on the top.

remove from oven tray and put olive oil in frying pan, then fry 2 slices at a time on both sides before adding a slice of cheese on one slice and the topping it with the second slice. let melt for about a minute then trasfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining slices.

Note: as much as Delish makes it look easy on their video DO NOT believe for a second than just 2 eggs and frying in a pan will be enough for the slices to stick together, baking them is the best way to get as close as possible to an actual grilled cheese sandwich.

One of the easiest, quickest, and yummiest keto meals I’ve been regularly eating. BLT wraps!! Exactly what it sounds like, romain leaf with mayo and a little bit of tomato, and a slice of bacon on top. Sometimes when I’m feeling more bold I throw some avocado on there too. Three of these and I’m totally full and happy. They’re perfect in a pinch!

This is the lasagna I made this weekend. It has deli chicken “noodles” and to be honest, if I didn’t know that I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. It is delicious and was very easy to make once the shredded chicken was finished.

Ricotta Bake, it’s what’s for dinner! Super easy and extra yummy, this is a low carb lasagna lovers dream.

We follow this recipe except we add diced turkey pepperoni and make an double batch.
