  • All this at least shows us that Washington D.C. clearly identifies US soldiers as enemies of the regime.

    Kinda hard to take US soldiers guns away, so the regime seeks to demoralize and lower the overall fighting capability of the soldiers.

    So the next phase after securing power with martial law is a reverse night of the long knives, putting all of the armed forces under the direct control and full of the White House, its cronies and assorted bureaucracy.

    What they want, from generals to simple soldiers, are individuals who would obey absolutely and have zero talents of their own, anyone else is a potential threat.

  • Being this is going to be a Government Issue Item, expect the price to go from $30 to $1200 each, much like other tools like hammers, mops, and anything else the Government buys.

  • Allowing women to fight on the front lines with men is a backdoor way of degrading and weakening our military. In these subtle ways the evil ones are succeeding in weakening our forces and making us more susceptible to defeat.

    In a way, it's similar to how the anti-gun elites (Feinstein, et al) are handling the gun control issues. By grandstanding as they are about tough new gun laws in the making they are creating a huge demand for guns and ammo unheard of in generations. This is having the "intended" consequence of putting many gun shops out of business, for good. They can't meet the demand, orders for more are way to slow in coming and the shop owners won't meet the rent. Soon, all legit gun owners will have run out of ammo after trips to gun ranges and they'll be left with nothing but MT gun clips and mags.

    • It is worst than that, standards are lowered so women can passe, thus deliberately lowering the quality of the US fighting force.

      It shows us the US federale governement clearly views average US soldiers as ennemies of the regime.

      If gun shops sells Everything tehy have, then they make a lot of money before the real Obama taxes hikes hits the US economy and small businesses.

    • The guns and ammo are being manufactured as fast as possible, and all going through the same gun shop that were making fewer sales a few months ago. Even though there are fewer guns on the shelf, the gun shops are making money. Nobody's folding over making too many sales.

    • And for you, since I'm already in the corner

      How To Hold GoGirl

      "The best way to hold GoGirl is by using your thumb and middle finger, stretching from front to back. Because it's made of a medical-grade silicone, it's flexible and works with any body shape. Maintaining a seal on the back-end is key. It's best not to hold GoGirl from side-to-side.

      Applying too much pressure on the sides can cause it to collapse, which can break the seal in the back.

      Try it a few times at home to master your technique so you'll know what to expect and feel more confident when you need GoGirl on the go. Don't get discouraged if you dribble the first time or two. With a little practice GoGirl will work perfectly every time."

      Ruined one of my lines when I'd get one of those "such a guy" looks. "Well yeah, maybe, but at least I can pee outside without getting my shoes wet."

      • Why the middle finger? Why so specific about which finger? Are they assuming that finger is already nasty so no harm no foul?

          • How big is this thing? And here's the problem: if you're using your middle finger that means your index finger is pointing off in some random direction, which is liable to make one of your fellow foxhole residents think you're pointing at him. While you pee. Trust me, men don't like being pointed at by people who are peeing.

          • Heck if I know...I have no plans to ever use one so it ain't likely I'll find out either. Besides, I'm not dumb enough to pay roughly $13 for a funnel...I'll just go behind a daggone tree and squat if I'm that desperate to pee.

          • Which brings up an interesting point: is this thing even necessary? I was at a concert once where the bathrooms were doing their usual long-lines-for-women/no-lines-for-men thing and I was happily peeing all by myself when a girl came in, stepped up to the urinal next to mine, pulled up her skirt, tilted her pelvis a bit, and peed into the urinal while her friend guarded the door. I looked over at what she was doing, noted the pelvic tilt, scanned her body quickly with particular attention to her adams apple, decided she was definitely female, then looked her in the eye and said, "You can do that?"

            "Yep," she replied. "Big secret. Don't tell the other guys."

          • I accompanied my girlfriend into the men's room to void her bladder in the manner you've described at two different concerts at Milwaukee's Marcus Amphitheater. She was a tall girl with a great deal of verve, panache and grace, three black belts, too many tattoos and was also a dancer. Nary a drop dribbled. She got the looks from the guys everywhere anyway, but the men's room visits stuck in my mind for some reason...

          • Would stick in my mind too. I have accompanied ladies into the men's room for the same reason many times, however there were stalls available, so I never witnessed such an event. The closest I came was one Halloween, the guitarist from the band in the club was dressed in drag, and went into the mens room to use the urinal. Not very interesting.

          • The first time I pretty much expected her to visit a stall, there were some open. She explained the logic. Easier to stand than try to avoid the urine covered seats and her ability to succeed in this approach was established, so hey, I was in no position to argue. I always think of her with kindness and sometimes miss her!

          • I don't know, but that list of concerts the guys were talking about has now turned into a "Go there for maximum WTF."

          • No it isn't necessary at all. You just gotta make sure you position yourself right so the urine doesn't go running down your leg ending up in your shoe or get on your clothes. Writing our names in the snow is a challenge for us ladies though.

          • Hey! Watch where you're pointing that finger! Somebody might mistake it for a gun, then you're in big trouble.

      • It needs to "seal" to the body?
        Sounds like it's only for those that shave regularly, which would be kind of tough to do in combat.
        In lieu of that, how about one of those long plastic funnels that they use for putting oil in a car?

  • I'm only asking because, well, its the Obama Administration, and you know they answer to code pink... but, is this real?

    I've been to the site, but it CAN'T be real!

    edit: My friends who've been down-range say they've seen them used... Wow! How have I not heard of this?

    • I added a question mark to show I'm guessing. But you watch, this will be standard combat gear. They have to do something... and I have no idea how women will deal with menstruation at the front. I'm assuming we're far enough along scientifically that we can stop menstruation in frontline combat troops.

      • Yeah, she can take the pill and stop that cycle. there are also IUD's or norplant implants that do the same thing. But not every woman can tolerate the hormonal therapies. I was puking my guts out...sure, that's helpful out on the front lines, right?

        • Even wit the pill they have a "period" at some point. If they takethe pills straight through, without the 1 week of sugar pills, most women experience break through bleeding at any time in the month, increasing the problem, not making it better.

        • Might scare the enemy. "Hey, I'm watching some woman through my binoculars and she's puking her guts out. Let's get out of here before we catch it!"

          • exactly, 'cept worse...had other side effects other than violent projectile voming, I also experienced bad headaches, blood pressure soared, vertigo. And I can't rememer what all else. Anyway called my doc, and he just said, "stop taking the pill. you just listed 5 out of 7 indicators that you are about to have a stroke." And I was just 21 at the time. So that was that. I took the pill for a whopping 3 days total...sick from the very first one. then later on I had endometriosis, which the easiest way to treat is taking the pill, but couldn't do that, so he gave me depot shots, which is still hormone therapy but at least it is human estrogen rather than horse estrogen. So I tolerated that better but still had issues with nausea and vomiting. But the vomiting was limited to car rides, even if I was doing the driving. So I pretty much stayed home all the time. But hey, no yucky time of the month for 7 months. That part was fabulous! Now I've had a hysterectomy so even more fabulous, and I'm done.

          • I couldn't tolerate them either. I turned into Linda Blair throughout the month. TOTALLY bipolar. My poor husband.

          • Well, the level of fabulous all depends on the reason for the hysterectomy, not always a good time when you find out you need one.

          • Best thing that ever happened to me! tumors, bleeding half to death, going anemic every month, yeah, it needed to go...pain free ever since, feel about 15 years younger, yee and haw.

          • Sorry but endometriosis is caused by mensus flowing in the wrong direction due to the uterus being tilted back, hormones have little to do with it.

            But he is entitled to his opinion of a woman with an hourglass figure to be noticeably more beautiful...flatterer ;)

          • It had to do with the balance of hormones, causing things that a ladies' body would normally take in stride to instead rip half her guts out.

            They made a good case for it, as well as pointing out that the majority of women who suffer from endometriosis also have pronouncedly feminine figures/attributes, and were noticeably more beautiful as a population segment than women less blessed with that problem.

          • Well now, I think I've hear it all...I don't see how diet can be blamed for this one. Unless, somehow "diet" forces the uterus to tilt back the wrong way so that at that time of the month, blood flows backword through the fallopian tubes and into the abdominal cavty depsiting endometrial cels on other organs, rather than flowing outward. But ok...blame it on diet rather than a tilted uterus.

          • Happened to my wife as well. Endometriosis is nasty stuff. Read an interesting book that claims it is our lousy Western diet that does it. It's entirely possible, but a woman going through that kind of pain isn't going to wait a couple weeks to see if it works.

      • I know now, during field exercises, they have to return to "civilization" for hygiene every 3 days. They also don't go out during their menses. The army guys i work complain about it from time to time.
