    Flea threw a spanner in the machinery.
    The legionnaires were Teresa’s idea,
    so she can’t be tooooo upset.
    Can she besides she will be
    miserable for awhile herself.
    She has a conscience.

      Oh, Teresa will be pissed.
      I’ll let you guys figure out why,
      Mistrial will explain on Monday.

        Aside from Dumcan finding out it was a scam?
        Because they basically broke the same law
        that they did with the O’blama’s princesses,
        and at some point she’ll have to rescue him.

    As has been stated numerous times, she can be gentle, when
    she is allowed to be. And that gentleness does NOT like
    having to do what she just did. There were most assuredly
    children in the homes of the parliament members’ families
    who died.

    So, episode 1305, panel 4 forward through episode 1308
    would have been real, if not for Flea’s entry?

        He still might, once he finds out the rules. Not that
        he’d get away with it, but he might try. Flea might
        have jumped the gun, for all she knew, part of
        the trial might have been for bad “behavure” on
        Lamia. Granted Cassie did tell her the basics, but
        never assume…

        Did Flea just Name him? I always thought Legionnaires chose their own.
        How much authority does Flea have? Can any Legionnaire just take in
        whoever they want based on a statement of intent? Looks to me like
        logistics could become an issue quickly.

          Plus the way both the girls and boys are treated by the Muslims,
          if they weren’t brainwashed, they soon would be. Lets face it,
          out the hundreds if not thousands of men that were fought off,
          only one had the sense to stop it and accept that the demands
          they were obeying were wrong. Those are very bad odds…

    I see that Flea has already given DumbDude (Duncan) a nickname,
    Turtle”. And apparently he’s not SO dumb that he doesn’t know,
    and take, a golden opportunity when it’s presented to him.
    And it will be interesting to see Borogrove’s explanation of
    what’s gone wrong with the mock trial “sentencing”.
    My thought is that, now that he’s in the Legion,
    and all past sins (and sentences) are washed away, he’ll
    start talking again about Operation Top Secret Ultra,
    and all will come out about the trial being a sham.
    Oops!
    Maybe Borogrove can put a bee in Flea’s ear, and she can
    ride herd (psyops) on the big guy to keep him hushed.
    Flea is about as subtle as a brick through a glass window.
    If not Flea, then maybe Doc’s ear.
    In the words of a favorite scifi author, “waiting is”.

      It’s a sad comedy of errors, starting with Dumcan.
      I’m sure it’d be a simple thing to yank him out if need be,
      but I think putting him in the Legion for a short while
      might be good for him.
      Let him see the beast he’s claiming to see on Lamia,
      it might change his tune.

      I think there’s a loop-hole that could be used to get him out of
      going to the Legion and getting off scott-free, he committed an
      “act of treason” by blabbing what he did, I believe that would
      exclude him from Legion service.

    Slight continuity error: In 1307 Dumcan was advised of the “verdict” and
    “sentence” and “temporary set aside” and then led back upstairs. In 1308
    the two girls whose pants Dumcan was trying to get into are apprised of
    the truth. But here in 1309 Flea intervenes before Mistral can “set the
    sentence aside”. What gives?

    A dead body was found at Obama’s house
    A male prostitute was found at Pelosi’s hoise
    An illegal server was found at Clinton’s house
    So the FBI raided Trump’s house!

    We live in a society where
    Homosexuals lecture us on morals,
    Transexuals lecture us on human biology,
    Baby killers lecture us on human rights,
    Communists lecture us on economics, and
    Satanists lecture us on religion.

    A country run by banks will always be in debt.
    Healthcare run by Big Pharma will never cure disease.

    A nation run by media will never know the truth.

      Clearly someone that doesn’t speak english, a simple
      check with the bank would debunk this, a call or login
      their website. I’ve gotten a few like this too, just some
      idiot that doesn’t know how banking works, just
      targeting the older/elderly in hopes of an easy mark.
      My medicare was hacked, I’ve been getting a shit-ton
      of calls, all scams, at least 5 a day. If someone pretending
      to be me tries to sell stuff, shoot me an e-mail and we’ll
      change my password, I had to do that with my e-mail
      and bank passwords.

        When I get a call about my Medicare coverage I first ask if I know them.
        Then I ask why I would even consider buying something from an
        anonymous voice on the phone. They pretty much always wind up
        ending the call. If they don’t then I flat out tell them they could not
        sell me a drink of water in the Sahara at high noon on the hottest
        day of the year. Even the die-hards hang up then. I don’t buy anything
        I don’t already want.

          Most of the time when I get an unknown call, I’ll answer
          if I’m not too busy. Most of the times they’re robo calls
          that hang up before pickup. On the rare occasion when
          someone picks up on the distant end, I’ll respond to their
          “pitch” in either German or Korean. I remember just
          enough to be dumb (ya! Grus gott. Vas merchtan se?)
          or insulting (dumkoff! shizekoff) or both.
          I have a Korean insult that’s an automatic assault
          if I were to say it over in Korea.

        I learned real quick to tell when it’s an auto-dialer,
        there’s a quiet beep, then someone speaks. If it
        was legit, there would be a person to answer
        right away. One of these calls I get is offering
        to “help me choose a Medicare provider”, I did that
        8 years ago! Just because I turn 65 at the start
        of the year.

          Scars – It’s open enrollment season for Medicare. The time
          of year when the various insurance companies can poach
          from each other. I got beaucoup offers prior to turning 65,
          then nothing for the last nine months. The “pick us instead”

            I know, but I’ll be damned if I’ll let someone on the phone talk
            me into something. These are scam calls, mostly from the same
            people. They have a pre-recorded American woman reading
            from a script, and then you’re told to press a number to learn
            more, if you do, someone with a heavy East Indian accent
            starts talking. And WON’T let you talk until the sales pitch is done.

      Monday went okay – mostly – but today has been very, VERY trying. Only
      way to get around San Antonio in on the freeways and there were several
      work zones on the way to the big VA hospital here where I get my most
      of my medical care. It’s a 50 mile anyway and when they’re futzing with
      the freeways shit gets serious. It took me over 15 minutes to go a mere
      3 miles. Plus they had part of the way we’d normally go coming back
      down to 1 (slow) lane. If that wasn’t enough the freeway exit I needed to
      take in the terminal area was closed due to maintenance. Lucky I know
      a back way to get to the VA. I checked in with 5 minutes to spare. They
      were working on the freeway on the return route – 5 lanes down to 3 but
      it didn’t slow us down too much. I got an infusion of cash from the study
      I’m participating in so I took my lady to lunch at a fairly nice Mexican
      place we’ve gone to forever. I got 5 bites down and my stomach yelled
      “NO!”. That was it for me for lunch. I was able to drink my Diet Pepsi.
      When we got home my wife had an urgent appt. on the throne. And to
      cap it all off the nuts in the pecan candy we bought were about half
      stale! Ain’t eating there again EVER!

    So, the Puffti was going away, off to his reward, at the conclusion of his
    part in this recorded performance. I have a feeling Teresa did this this
    way to create this video, his part and hers, and it will be broadcast. I’m
    not sure she is going to be happy with all aspects of the image of herself
    she is creating. I see her adversaries accusing her both of hypocrisy and
    cowardice, since she is killing relative innocents along with the guilty
    from a secure distance. Her primary defense is that this is return fire,
    she didn’t start it. She’ll have to take the spin that the Caliphate put their
    own people at risk by their actions, and are the real authors of their deaths.

      That Puufti has been attacking innocence’s everywhere for bragging rights and to

      to be under his control. Killing and raping the lands and the people along the way.
      Teresa saw this and with the attack on the Empire, she was left with no choice
      but to end them, it’ll take years for Islam to recover to try again, maybe this time
      with smarter leaders? I doubt it…

      And your solution would be?
      How does one fight a murderous religion which believes that
      helpless civilians make the most desirable targets?
      A religion that gives a big thumbs up to finding the most
      horrible ways of killing it’s enemies (anyone not of that
      religion) such as locking them in a cage and soaking them
      in gasoline… then lighting it?
      How do you fight someone like that?
      You have to totally destroy them, or totally destroy their
      will to fight. You can’t go halfway and then stop.

        Read some of the atrocities that have been committed by Christians,
        Jews, Hindu, Shinto, and on and on. I will not condemn people in any
        group for what others in that group have done. People who do the
        things you list? Light ’em up and the sooner the better. But don’t
        become them. Don’t target others that happen to speak the same
        language or worship the same version of Deity, unless they show
        themselves to be the same sort. I am not guilty of My Lai or Wounded
        Knee. Or many more I could mention. Anything short of complete
        annihilation leaves a future enemy, and genocide is not acceptable.

          and seeing it first hand… this “murderous religion” believes just that.!
          ‘no infidel shall live.’ … and they are Christian,, but not. if not muslim
          then death to you infidel.! your laws (any country not theirs) Don’t
          apply to them.!!

          Most of the religions you mentioned have become enlightened,
          while some people cling to the old ways, Islam is still in the dark
          ages, they feel the more horrific the “punishment,” the better.
          The kuron depicts the same events found in the Hebrew bible.
          much less the KJ version, just names and places changed.
          Infidels are not people to them, only lessor beings that risk their
          way of life and religion, hence the “Demon” names for women.
          They won’t be wiped out, but the few that survive won’t be able
          to do much harm for a long time. Islam covers 5 nations on 3
          continents and number in the billions, not even the Empire could
          find them all. But they will take care of any that tries this crap again.

    We got some bad news about my wife, her breathing has gotten worse.
    She’s up to 6 liters of oxygen and we are getting a new machine to handle
    the demand. Her current one only goes up to 5. She’s (understandably)
    refuses a permanent ventilator, so she may only have a few years left, I
    guess it’s time to start making arrangements.
    Sorry guys, it’s been rough.

      I feel for you both, Scars. I’ve been there. In my wife’s case it was
      calciphylaxis.

        I’m sorry to hear that Jochi, that’s pretty bad. It’s a rare side-effect
        of the calcium shots my wife takes for her brittle bone disorder.

      Update, we got the new machine today, that thing is LOUD.
      Can’t hear the living room TV over it, Ill have to get some
      extra hose and put it in the pantry I guess.

        Maybe run the hose overhead and/or through some plastic conduit,
        at least through the hard-to-reach spots so that you don’t have
        to dig out any awkward cat-chewed parts of the run?
        Or have you enclosed it in braided steel wire sheathing?
