Musicians are known for their creative endeavors. So when a legend like Carlos Santana speaks about something he truly believes in you’d think the vast majority of people - left and right - would praise his honesty and integrity. Sorry no. Not in the clown world of TQ+. Instead this legend is attacked for his heart-felt opinions while an underwhelming talent like T-Swift is held in high esteem for her inclusiveness in what is termed as music. What a laugh.

She just had the highest grossing tour in history.
If it’s true that “children are our future,”
we’re ducked.

I can wiggle my ears 
So kids pay for indoctrination and love it, she should run for president.

I’ve watched this kind of stuff since childhood. “You’re our Friend, you agree with us…” “OMG You worthless piece of crap you don’t agree with us…”. I’ve actually met some of the Hollywood ‘A’ listers, not much positive to say about that. Santana has just as much right to say what he has to say as the queer nation has to say what they have to say. I like Santana always have, this changes nothing for me.

As some of you know I 'assisted ‘A’ (often B and B+) listers when they had …um ‘Social Issues’
with their ‘Fans’ and people who wanted to either attempt to make a name for themselves
or extort money or the MOST Popular category of just plain kill them for whatever broken brain reason
that made sense to only them.
Mr. Santana speaks the truth and in today’s Broken World he is shouted down. He probably knew he would be but did it anyway. THAT TAKES GUTS! In today’s climate of Prosecuting our real President there
seems to be no rules apply anymore. The fix is in and the dementors seem to feel they can do whatever they want. I am extremely grateful this morning I had no children. I have said this before but at a party last night somebody was stupid enough to bring up politics and I was once again grateful I was Armed!. These weren’t all my friends ( just a really close pair of friends and my sister) and with a few quiet words they felt the same way I did and we beat feet out of there. There were probably no incidents after we left, No active shooter or Democratic public hangings of anybody who didn’t agree w/ them but TODAY
I will not put up with the Bullsh-- anymore. They have the right to say whatever the hell they want, persecute whoever they feel is their enemy and WE don’t. This world, this society is BROKEN. I have zero idea who ‘T-swift’ is and I don’t care, I don’t care if you want to waggle your weenie @ children during story hour or if your plan for mass indoctrination of the next couple of generations is your goal. This is somebody else’s fight. I am done. Let the next Generation of Warriors have the frontline. This country is circling the drain and I could care less. You people are the voice of Reason for me but I think i wish to back track and say “Fellow Gunners, somedays lets just post threads about GUNS and leave it at that”. I once said something like talking about social issues, lively discussions. debates is what I come here for but somedays like this morning I feel I just want to hear the comparisons or preferences between Red dot sights and tritium sights…
MIM vs. CNC Machining sounds like something I could wrap my brain around and feel I accomplished something today. I like you people (most of you 
anyway) I have the day off ao I am going to reboot here and just play with the topics listed before I have to go out in the crazy world again tomorrow. ‘T-swift’ Indeed…

Brother as long as we all use our brains, don’t go to stupid places, talk to stupid people, and do stupid things, KEEP our Situational Awareness up when we venture out we should survive this current craziness.
I watched Newsmax last night for the first time @ that party and the vitriol seemly overnight has been ratcheted up considerably in just a few day’s. Left part of my brain say’s it’s all just "talk, Talk, Talk like all these committees and congressmen and senator’s who could be just playing the game for show and never really amount to anything. Right Brain say’s (as usual) this could get UGLY for our country.
Either way I am as ready as I am going to be. Another gun (@ this time is unnecessary), More Ammo?
I find it difficult getting into my spare room as is! 
…but another 1,000 rounds of .556 doesn’t take up THAT much room really, and often you get free ammo boxes w/ certain suppliers. Hmmmmm.
Cool then!
Anyway, I’m just going to live as best I can, Go shooting as time allows (like today!) , Because you HAVE to keep yourself sharp! No matter what. A Dull shooter is a dead shooter. No sense having 600 guns if you are dull and get popped in the head right off the bat right?. What a waste that would be,
I want to live to see how this movie ends.
A WARRIOR is never trained to retire.
Rock on Mr. Carlos Santana !
We will prevail!

People confuse entertainers as individuals who have political opinions that are somehow better informed and worth listening to by virtue of singing songs (singers), telling jokes (comedians), pretending to be someone else (actors), or playing a game (athletes).

TRUTH!
The sad fact is they Believe they have a voice just because they Act, sing…
Like these suits and skirts ‘Commentators/ news folks. They got hired
because they look good in front of the camera, can read a teleprompter
(that leaves Puddin’ in a cup out for a second career don’t it! 
)
A Lot just understand they are ‘doing a job!. I am an actor, singer etc.
most of them say.
I’ve seen people get all made up like ready to go to an Oscar event!
I wanted to ask…really ask, What are you doin’? you’re just going to the
Piggly Wiggly!
It’s like Whoopie Cushion, She sway’s …be nice here, followers, who are
addicted to daytime TeeVee just because she did some notable work (20+) years ago.
The truth is she is DANGEROUS and her vitriol towards ANYTHING she doesn’t like
can get people hurt.
Carlos Santana has had a Long and wonderful career making music, simple as that!
He’s incredibly talented and he doesn’t even sing! He once said his voice makes him wince!
So, maybe (not knowing him) he is @ an age where he just needs to say something
about what’s going on or bothers him. He has that RIGHT!
It’s the Performers who DON’T talk ALL the time that their message has weight (myopinion only)

We are all entitled to our opinion and to the life style of our choice. Carlos is speaking what he believes. Right or wrong is not for us to decide, we are not his judges. Agree or disagree is another side. Truth is I have never heard of any harm done by a transgender individual to anyone. As long as they are not causing any harm they can do whatever they want, my opinion. In the end, God will sort it out.
I’m confused here. Please elaborate. Audrey Hale, the Nashville mass shooter, who killed six including four children Identified as a Transgender according to news outlets. Are you purposely omitting this fact and other reports of transgender shootings because it constitutes killing as opposed to routine violence? Just askin.

But it is for us to decide or else how do you learn to decide who you are or want to be? Individual truth isn’t true truth.

Kurt Russell said it best. He said that actors should keep their political opinions private, he said that he is just a court jester, and would like to keep it at that.

Carlos Santana should say what I would and will say and that is " Am I not allowed to have my opinion or does that right only cover you?" And BTW it sounds like your anti hispanic to me. ( or whatever he is) People need to tell these trouble makers to shut the cluck up, I have the right to say what I want, like or dislike who and what I want and if you dont like or approve of it go cry in a corner somewhere. Ppl need to stop kissing these trouble makers butts, h3ll with them and they need to be told that but guess what? WE LET IT ALL HAPPEN NOW DIDNT WE?

I am not one to point fingers 
or mention names. I know this is not Carlos’s fault. Because I don’t want to get anyone in trouble I will tell you the initials of the person who instigated this. 
🏽 his initials are Dave Chappelle .
