General "Mad Dog" Mattis

Let the man speak for himself.

A few of my personal favorites, which should inform our operations as well.

Mad Dog
Just your average, fun-loving Marine


2. “The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot.”


3. “I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all.”


6. “Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.”


9. “There are hunters and there are victims. By your discipline, cunning, obedience and alertness, you will decide if you are a hunter or a victim.”


13. “You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn’t wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain’t got no manhood left anyway. So it’s a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it’s quite fun to fight them, you know. It’s a hell of a hoot. It’s fun to shoot some people. I’ll be right up there with you. I like brawling.”


.... and my personal favorite, having spent in the Persian gulf and surrounding area ....

14. “I’m going to plead with you, do not cross us. Because if you do, the survivors will write about what we do here for 10,000 years.”

What Does #EWorHW Mean?

It is a tag, short hand for we can do this   " THE EASY WAY or the  HARD WAY " Common phrase, you hear it often in the military. Sometimes it refers to understanding the better technique, "the easy way". More often the phrase is a bit more menacing, it means the subject is going to do it, the ONLY question is which way is it going to be done. Thus, when we talk about Making America Great Again (#MAGA), the Easy Way or Hard Way (#EWorHW).

A Better Way .... Kill People and Break Things

Based on the well documented collapse of the US University system , one of the better (less bad) options is the "Trade School" approach. I say better, because if you end up with a globalist, police-the-world CIC, you run the risk they will get you or your classmates, or your men dead. Yes, I said Men. Like it or not, when it is time to do dangerous things, overwhelmingly, it will be the men who will bleed, be maimed, marred, or dead. Like others, before and after me, I choose to go to a Service Academy. We held up our hands, swore an oath, and gave years of our life doing sometimes dangerous things. Along the way, I got an engineering degree, and a big dose of life. We joked that it was trade school, because our "Trade" was going to far off lands and "Killing People and Breaking Things". That was before the elitists turned the military into  AWWW (Aid Workers With Weapons). As my own grandchildren grow, I'm not sure I recommend that path to them,...

Shock Therapy - the wisdom of Conan

Feeling suddenly afraid because Trump was elected? Is life triggering you? Uncontrollable tears and hysteria? Do you feel like your world is collapsing? Does #MAGA and #DrainTheSwamp make your mind reel? Take comfort in the fact that the strong, determined men millennia ago observed a mindset that struck fear and dread in women and weak men. This is not a new concept, hopefully that historical tidbit will help. As is often (falsely) said, don't worry, you are just going to feel some slight pressure. LOLZ You have to watch Arnold deliver it here Mongol General " This is good, but what is best in life?" Conan  " Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women." See, it is really simple, you have been lied to, you have been deceived, and now the light will shine into the darkness.
