“I think Dmm is trying to tell us something”.
That he to has a fetish for redheads as do I, it must be an Irish thing.
The story behind the last pic is interesting
ps ps Cederq if you would not do Alex Zedra on weekends you must be gay.
Yes, and not at all what the liberal media tried to represent.
Say what you want about Jimmy Carter being a shitty president, and there certainly was a lot to be said, when a bunch of Donks got together and tried to kick General Loan out of the country, Carter stopped it.
Of course, the current occupant of the White House has set a whole new standard about how being a shitty president is defined…….
#29 is a Union siege cannon, not a mortar. You can tell by the slanted gun shield and the barrel sticking through it. Direct fire, mounted on a rail carriage. The tracks were advanced behind the siege lines as the Union moved closer to whatever Confederate target they were going after.
A siege mortar on a rail car wouldn’t have a gun shield as it was designed for indirect fire.
That last picture was NOT an “assassination”, it was an execution.
Let’s be accurate, please.
