  the latest issue of the watchtower shows a man with a beard praying.. .

  i fully expected to see him 'progress' to clean-shaven in the following pictures, but instead he is still bearded when 'applying bible principles'.. .

  i then realized that he was already featured on the cover itself.. .

  That bearded man and wife are the ones in paradise too. Note the children have grown a bit. We will wait to see if he ever gives a platform part.

  I can do ok with a pump shotgun, deer rifle (sniper), revolver, bow and arrow, or a good old winchester 3030. A 7.62 x 39 is a good round if I ever find an AK or SKS . Drums are illegal here, so it is the 7, 5 bolt, or 12 in a mk2. 15 in a pistol, In a given situation i will not last very long anyway.

  Pistols are easier to conceal, or carry, but have less firepower and accuracy compared to a long gun. A pistol or revolver is my usual choice for taking on a weekend drive. Goes in the trunk or glove box, depending. Wife usually doesnt know, only once got scared by a bear warning sign and asked if I had put one in. I had.

  i agree with people who say all lives matter.

  i think blm is a racist group.

  if white people pushed an agenda saying white lives matter, some people would have a conniption..

  There is a reason young black males are feared: they act on a learned culture behaviour. There is the same uneasiness felt toward hillbillies, Irish on st Patrick day, drunks in general.

  There are socially accepted norms being ignored by tribes. I saw a clip of protesters banging on a car, the driver came out with a club. What did they do? Hollered for the cops!

  Economic Recovery after COVID-19

  by Simon in

  it feels like we've really turned a corner, this morning especially.. the covid lockdowns are ending and medical systems were not overwhelmed plus there are existing treatments that have been proven to be effective (like hydroxychloroquine) and new vaccines and medicines in the pipeline.

  a week or so ago the dems were dead against opening things up but since they are encouraging protests (which often turn violent) they can't continue that stance - thus proving trumps claim that it will soon be gone.

  the majority of the deaths were politician-assisted (which i hope people are prosecuted for) so it's not the big risk we were led to believe and (over) reacted to.. the bls reported this morning that the us economy just added a huge number of jobs (most on record) and will undoubtedly benefit even more from a drive to source local production and supply chains going forwards.

  Restaurants still limited, access to any recreation being rationed. Any pos camper sells overnight, tents are moving fast, even without the homeless buying them.

  IF good jobs come back we need to get back to wanting one good quality item instead of quantity of junk. Learn a skill instead of burger flipping. There will be an upheaval in 3rd world countries though.

  BB. You should hear the recent comments locally on dirty beards. No way a past feeling among the elders.

  As for narcissism standing looking in front of a mirror to cut all the little hair off your face surely is

  Has anyone looked on jw talk?

  I know a couple elders whose heads will explode. These beards are just starting past the homeless look. The one thing i don't like is the dyed beards.

  How Can So Many Protesters (George Floyd) Be From "Somewhere Else?"

  by RubaDub in

  i hear every mayor, every politician, claiming that the protesters are coming in from "other states".

  at some point, with about 130 cities that had protests over the last weekend, where the hell are people coming from???.

  there are only 50 states (57 per obama, but that includes us territories and kenya).

  How in hell can a brickyard deliver bricks to a place with no work going on. If you ever looked ,a pallet bricks will not fit in your trunk and is too heavy for a light duty pickup

  hello, i am in the beginning stages of a slow fade.

  over the years i have become more and more dissatisfied with the beliefs, teachings, and organizational practices of the organization.

  i no longer have faith in it.

  The moment you question things you are already out. Either continue fading, play the game for family, quit cold,OR immerse yourself with a blank stare and pioneer

  what a wonderful time to be a jehovah’s witness!

  for the most part you don’t have to go and preach you don’t have to go to meetings and you can stay home and watch what happens on your ipad.

  these are the glory days!!

  Nagging to do zoom text every day, complete with an added video. Dress for sitting in your own home.

  CO seems to think we all sit home afraid living on our extra $600 unemployment.
