yeah, when the "news" reports on a mob of "teens" rioting or looting, i immediately assume it's the amish again.It's kind of like the line... "By claiming to be non binary, you're putting everyone into two groups, binary and non binary, therefor making yourself binary." By refusing to identify their race, you're identifying their race.![]()
Yeah, I actually have, from growing among clans of Scotch Irish hillbillies whose first instinct was to use a knife over a gun, to working as a bouncer to actual training.
I've witnessed actual knife fights where the attackee survived getting his throat slashed or disemboweled at the onset and managed to get his own knife out and it always ended up in a bloody affair with both sides cut up.
I carried and still carry a fighting knife. But somewhere along the line I got smart and learned the art of the pistol, which includes creating space. You might cut me on the leg when I kick the fuck out of you creating distance as I introduce my G19 but I'm going to do a mag dump in your chest for your trouble.
Probably for the same reason I don't travel more than a hundred yards in the woods from my ATV when deer hunting.
Sure I might get a deer if I walk 200-400 yds into the woods...but then i have to carry it 200-400yds out.
You lived an uneventful, dull life did you?Lemme guess, you flew fighters in Nam, trained with Hathcock after, and once beat up Chuck Norris just because?
You forgot the prayer the Germans said. "God protect us from the fury of the North man".They would attack 'each other' when people pissed them off.
They mostly did raiding when things were going 'bad' at home. A few cold years of crop failure. A famine. Disease. Fishing was bad... AND when things got to the point where they were running out of land and space. They needed Lebensraum, too. So getting good arable land was another reason to raid.
But you are right... the Norse were 99 percent about trading. And very little about raiding. Unless messed with.
BTW, it is the Norse era. They are the Norse People. Norsemen... Men of the North. Viking is the word for a Norse warrior or raider. As one of my friends put it eloquently: Viking is a job title, not a people! Only when the norse picked up their 'red shields' (their war shields) did they become Vikings.

Work smarter, not harder.You lazy inbred goat lover! ……

Eat good all year.
Got an easy elk last year.
Dropped the carcass on the truck tailgate with a loader, slowly, sliding it in as we lowered it.
Had carried out a huge bull a few weeks prior though.

That was an early prayer. I'd be happy to trace my lineage so you know I'm not kidding. Maybe not tonight. But tomorrow. My uncle wrote a book I think k I have a pdf. Anyway, my dad is 96% Norwegian and my mom is 95% Norwegian with the other 4% being other northern European.Was that from 900? Or March 1945 when the Red Army was about to level half of Germany?

I have read your posts for awhile. I think you are a smart and interesting guy.No need… Sako guys are trustworthy!
And I know it was a early prayer… but bet it was dusted off for Zhukov!!

The Rus were descendants of vikings/norsemen too, no?No need… Sako guys are trustworthy!

Hard to say. There was cross breeding of course, how much I don't know. We all know there are no pure Irish or English. I'm not gas lighting anyone. Just a fact. I'd like to hear from someone who knows more about this.The Rus were descendants of vikings/norsemen too, no?
My lineage on my father’s side is from one of his 22 concubines and the illegitimate results. Mother is Irish.I'm actually a descendant of King Haarold through his sixth wife.
I'm curious if Ragnor Lothbrok was actually executed via a snake pit as legend has it as England has virtually no native venomous snakes except for one adder.Was that from 900? Or March 1945 when the Red Army was about to level half of Germany?

Yeah, I'd like to see her Ancestry.com DNA.She kinda looks like a lizard face.
Just gonna leave this here..
What we got? A .50 cal...suppressed M240... a f/a MP5... some AR's.. a minigun... auto 12 ga. ... and @TheHorta tier NV/thermal kit. Should do the trick
Fuck me. I wish i could get a deer in a couple hundred yards! I am usually MILES, and to top it off, steep, loose, jagged terrain with hundreds of feet of elevation change way too often, most of the time with small canyons in the lows! Did i mention every fucking plant there wants to stab you to death just for existing! To make it worse i PAY to do this! And hope to win the lottery my state so i can do it every year!Probably for the same reason I don't travel more than a hundred yards in the woods from my ATV when deer hunting.

I killed the biggest buck in my life at 16 when I hiked five miles over rugged Hill Country with no light, waded across a creek and was in my tree stand when the sun came up.Fuck me.

Your pic needs a naginata.Everybody gets cut...
However, stand-off weapons existed long before gunpowder.
It's just kind of a bitch to carry a pike into Popeyes...

Lest one thinks these went out with the Romans and the Knnnnnn-i-gits, "Polearms" were widely carried by Continental Soldiers throughout the Revolutionary War. Confederates made limited use of them in the Civil War as well... And the Japanese issued millions of them on the home front prior to their getting microwaved and giving up without shish-kebab-ing our Marines and GI's.

I believe so and at least one region deep inside Russia is named (like Normandy) for the Northmen! I just can’t remember what it is!The Rus were descendants of vikings/norsemen too, no?
I'm curious if Ragnor Lothbrok was actually executed via a snake pit as legend has it as England has virtually no native venomous snakes except for one adder.
In the series The Vikings it showed them dumping all kinds of snakes into the pit, mostly boa's and other non venomous species. If they imported venomous snakes just for his execution or they captured bushells of native adders, it would have taken forever.
Then again, I've read Ragnor himself was a myth.

Must be where my oversized junk came from? LOLWhat’s that red spot at the bottom of the wood pile?
Even bullshit has to have a limit manand once beat up Chuck Norris just because?
Try killin a handful of caribou deep in the Alaskan tundra and having to walk it all out. Minimum hunting distance from the road is 5 miles and it’s walk it pack animals only.I killed the biggest buck in my life at 16 when I hiked five miles over rugged Hill Country with no light, waded across a creek and was in my tree stand when the sun came up.
After I killed a big 8 point, I gutted and stashed it, hiked back to our base camp, saddled my horse and rode back to pick up the buck. I had it hanging in the barn by 2 p.m. I figured I had walked, ridden over twenty miles for that deer.
The furthest I walk to see a deer now is my back deck.
Uh oh gentlemen... we gotta hi yeller in the ranks.What’s that red spot at the bottom of the wood pile?
Uh oh gentlemen... we gotta hi yeller in the ranks.
Know what that means... the "one drop" law and all that. Hands off our women boy!
I wonder if the thought ever crossed his 'activist' smoothmind "damn I wish I had a pistol right about now"..?sheeeit
And then you beat up Chuck Norris.Try killin a handful of caribou deep in the Alaskan tundra and having to walk it all out. Minimum hunting distance from the road is 5 miles and it’s walk it pack animals only.

Not only expect to get cut, but if it's a Case Yellow Handle pocket knife, you might be replacing in. The one I saw after some hillbilly I knew got in a barfight with one was it was bent like an L at the handle and encrusted in purple black blood. He ended up underneath his opponent but the other guy's arms were cut up so bad they were useless.As I recall, lesson one was, "Expect to get cut."
Don’t fuck with Chuck. End of storyAnd then you beat up Chuck Norris.
