Having lived in the rural Southwest now for 13 years, I've had an opportunity to be around a lot of horses (sometimes just out hiking on trails).

I am ALWAYS amazed each time at their physical build, strength, and magnificence ... and understand now why, during the Civil War, U.S. Grant punished a Union soldier (had him tied to a tree for hours; too bad not whipped) for abusing one.

47 When I was a kid, we had 'pony pulls' at the local Grange now and then. Even though 'pony' was in the name, usually there were teams of draft or work horses pulling the sled. Beautiful animals. As it passed, the spectators along the lane would step on the sliding platform until the horses couldn't advance any more.

Lots of beer and betting on the outcome was involved. Great fun.

168 This is impressive. She really captures the musculature and movement of the horses. These aren't spindly race horse types. They are heavily muscled for farm work and hunting over rough terrain. Bonheur lets the viewer feel the sheer power on display. The landscape is not as dynamic, of course, but it is equally well done.

This is a painting that benefits from enlarging. That lets you see even more detail and the people in the scene. The humans are pretty much lost among the horses. It must be very impressive seen on site.

BTW, Bonheur was also a sculptress and her work is as detailed and lifelike as the paintings.

199 Someone call the sheriff. There's a-goin' to be trouble.

99%, this guy was acting alone. The hotel was still open to regular guests, only a section closed off for the function that evening.

Not everything is a grand conspiracy.

The entire leftist ecosystem is about getting lone wolves to act on their own without literal support from other sources.

All of the things the left has attempted to destroy Trump and some still think this guy was a lone wolf that planned buying weapons, booking the exact hotel and traveling across the country to murder him flabbergasts me.

He was a downwardly mobile thought worker (going from CalTech for his BS to an offshoot for the MS) who was drowning in BlueSky BlueAnon agitprop, convinced that Trump was ending the world because he is Epstein, or something, while deporting the very people the attempted shooter was competing for for jobs.

It's not a great barrier you're describing. Buying weapons? He did it. He purchased them himself (even went through the 10 day waiting period for all of them in CA) and hid them at his parents' house (without their knowledge). Buying train tickets? Booking hotels?

How stupid do you think normal people are that they would need financial and tactical backing in order to accomplish that?

You don't need Soros to make that happen. You don't need the Iranian government.

You just need to wake up and say, "I'm going to go to the place where I know Trump is going to be."

Why can’t they act alone? Besides, if you act in concert with others, the more likely a conspiracy can be caught.

It’s a mistake to ascribe absolutely everything to conspiracy. If you do that, you may as well be BurtTC, who never could grasp that basic truth.

The guy had a full time job for crying out loud he wasn’t a bum living under the bridge. And I believe living with his parents. Which means his entire income was basically disposable income. He had access to to a few thousand dollars for a trip to DC and a hotel room.

There are a whole bunch absolutely demented people in this country and they openly talk about killing their political opponents. People were laughing and joking about Kirk's murder and turned him into a monster that had nothing to do with the real Charlie Kirk.

And they hate Trump way more than they hated Charlie. They call him a fascist and Hitler to give themselves an excuse for violence.

Behind door #2 is a shithole where crime is rampant, criminal invaders from other lands come and steal your resources, murder you, you get taxed out the ass, told what to drive, how to live, etc etc. What do you pick?

The dems pick #2, they want to create whats behind door 2, and they want to force you to live with it every...fucking...time these motherfuckers wake up breathing and vote. Every dem is a defective human, a piece of shit. There is no average dem, there is only dem, and they are shit.
