In Bedford, Massachsetts, they again demonstrated their stupidity,
not only by holding a “gun buyback,” but also getting mostly BB
guns, and they’re still very happy about it. Never mind the only
real guns that get turned in are old unreliable guns that are more
likely to blow up in the person’s hand. Or guns that have been used
in a crime and were destined for the deep lake or a river, anyway.
These
events are always “no questions” events, where no questions are
asked of those turning them in. I remember a “Blue Bloods episode
where a couple of cops noticed that one of the guns being turned in
had been used in a murder and got in trouble for pursuing it.
Never mind that money is fungible, and that gained at these events
will most likely be spent to obtain newer, working guns to use in
victimizing the law-abiding.
Gun
buyback programs are like “gun-free zones.” They are a good place
to “dump” a “dirty gun” because the cops are restrained from
pursuing charges against those turning in “dirty guns.” In
gun-free zones, criminals freely bring their guns in and victimize
people, being pretty sure none of the law-abiding there will be
armed, and able to fight back. They SEEK OUT such areas for that
reason. Gun buybacks are just a good way to get rid of “dirty guns”
and those that are no longer reliable to get money to buy newer,
better ones. Anti-gun fools don’t know this, just like they don’t
know their other laws are USELESS, and unenforceable. (Bearing Arms)

What SHOULD We Do?
Anti-gun fools constantly blame the NRA and other pro-gun
people for all the deaths attributed to ILLEGAL guns in the hands of
the lawless, whether they be simple criminals, crazies, or Islamic
terrorists. Yet, truth be known, it is the anti-gun fools who make it
worse by limiting the number of guns in the hands of the law-abiding,
making them defenseless. They decry the “fact” that we “do
nothing” to stop “gun violence,” but I have to ask them, What
the hell would they have us do? My granddaddy always said, “If you
complain about something, give us an idea what to do about it.” Now
I’m the “granddaddy,”
and anti-gun fools are complaining that “we do nothing about gun
crime,” but never make any suggestions that WORK. They only
complain that WE don’t do something. It’s easy to complain that
“somebody else” does nothing, but a little harder to actually
come up with something that will work. So far, nobody has come up
with anything that WILL work to reduce “gun crime,” because all
the anti-gun fools are getting laws passed that actually make it
worse, under the PRETENSE that they’re actually DOING something. If
somebody ever comes up with a REAL solution, I’ll be right there
with them. But I’m not holding my breath, because the anti-gun
fools scoff at the real solutions, such as allowing the law-abiding
to have their guns so they can defend themselves. The cops can’t do
it, because they’re at least minutes away, while the law-abiding
citizens are THERE. (CNBC)

No Updates Tomorrow
I won’t be updating this blog tomorrow. I will be “taking it
easy” and spending
some time with my
family, and stuffing my gut, as all people should be doing.
Hopefully, the world will not “go to hell in a handbasket” (any
more than usual) tomorrow
because the handbasket will be full of turkey. Happy thanksgiving,
folks!
Why're They So Stupid?
Gun control does not work. Everybody knows that. But anti-gun fools
operate as if they didn’t know it, and by so doing, make it worse
by disarming the law-abiding so they’re defenseless in the face of
the illegal guns used by the lawless. You ask them why they continue
to be so dense, and continue to insist on passing more and more of
those useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws that don’t work, and you
get no answer. They immediately start calling you names while
ignoring your question. They can’t be that stupid, so what is their
ultimate purpose? Outfits like the Presbyterians
are simply dupes who have bought their garbage. The anti-gun fools
are the ones to blame for all the “gun crime” that is rampant in
our society, today.
They
SAY it’s rampant, but it is actually going down. It’s not nearly
the problem it was, because of the increase in the number of “carry
permits” gained by the law-abiding. They don’t like that because
it proves them wrong, every day, as “good guys with guns” even
things out by killing many lawbreakers as they try to victimize them.
The more legal guns there out there, the less those with illegal guns
can successfully victimize then law-abiding, and they hate that.
Almost
all “gun crime” is committed by ILLEGAL guns, but all they want
to do is get rid of LEGAL guns.
I think the politicians are just frightened of those legally
“carrying” because they count themselves as “kindred spirits
with those lawbreakers. They’ll deny it,
of course, but that’s what it is. They just don’t want to meet
guns when they come to take what is yours. (Presbyterian Outlook)
Complete, Absolute Stupidity
In the Old West, most men carried guns, because to not do so left
them open to the marauding bandits that rode the countryside. That
way, they at least had a chance to defend themselves against them. If
anybody had suggested that they “get rid of their guns,” they’d
have laughed in their face because, the way to self defense is NOT to
make yourself defenseless, and they knew it. Somewhere along the
line, people lost that knowledge and many are now blaming the gun for
“gun violence,” and pushing to “get rid of the guns,” making
themselves defenseless against the “bandits” that still abound,
with their ILLEGAL guns. Whenever some fool shoots up a school, or
other “gun-free zone” with an illegal gun, the anti-gun fools immediately clamor to
get rid of more LEGAL guns, and make ourselves defenseless. That’s
sheer stupidity! But they don’t know that. Stupid people have no
idea they ARE stupid. They think they’re the “smartest people in
the room,” and all the others are stupid. I don’t know about
others, but if some fool comes at me with a gun, I want to have a gun
to use to stop him. That’s just common sense. (Just common sense)

Making Excuses
I get tired of hearing the city of Chicago blaming “lax gun laws in
other states” for their major “gun crime” problem. The fact is
EVERY big city could likewise blame guns coming from other states
because, unless those guns were manufactured IN Chicago, they came in
from other states. Not just the ones with what Chicago calls “lax
gun laws. Making this claim excuses them from their own
responsibility in
the burgeoning “gun crime” rate in their city, which stems from
not only their own lax enforcement of gun carry laws on their own
books but
their refusal to prosecute illegal gun carrying.
They have recently confiscated 10,000 guns from criminals, and
prosecuted them rarely. Usually waiving prosecution to gain
convictions in other crimes. That’s just lax law enforcement,
generally. There are other ways to get convictions other than
“looking the other way” about illegal gun carrying. Their very
tight gun laws also have an effect, by disarming the law-abiding,
making it easy for the law-breakers to victimize them. If they
allowed the law-abiding to be armed in self defense, they would get
rid of a lot of illegal gun carriers when they killed them as they
tried to victimize a “concealed carrier.” But they will never
hear of that. They aren’t intelligent enough. (WBBM)
Biden Blames the NRA
Senile Dumocrat presidential candidate Joe Biden is blaming the NRA
for the fact that a 15-year-old CHILD got a gun ILLEGALLY, and killed
a couple of his fellow students in California the other day. How the
NRA, who only champion the American’s constitutional RIGHT to be
armed, is responsible for a kid getting a gun ILLEGALLY and killing
some people is beyond my muddled thinking. But hey! I’m only an old
blogger who is still able to see things clearly. Not like “Ol’
Joe, who speaks to walls instead of the audience. Damn!
How the Dumocrats think such a man is capable of running this country
is something else. Of course, this senile old man would be easy to
control. Of
course, Joe is not alone in his stupidities. Every Dumocrat running
has similar views on guns. They all think the way to self defense is
to make yourself DEFENSELESS. I don’t know. Maybe it’s something
in the water I DC that promotes stupidity. Of course, such stupidity
is not, in any way, limited to those in DC. They’re EVERYWHERE that
Dumocrats congregate. And they spawn anti-gun fools like one former
congresswoman who got shot in the head and not killed, who really
thinks if nobody had a LEGAL gun, she wouldn’t have gotten shot.
How
ANYBODY can think keeping guns out of the law-abiding can do anything
about guns in the hands of the lawless shows a stupidity beyond
belief. (Bearing Arms)

"Good Guy With Gun"
Anti-gun fools confidently tell you that the “good guy with a gun”
thing
is something that’s only in the imaginations of pro-gun people.
Then a guy enters a known “gun-free zone” on a WalMart parking
lot and kills his former wife and her new boyfriend. Whether or not
he intended to kill any more people there is not known, because a
legal concealed carrier was there with his gun, also violating
Walmart “policy,” and it’s good he was, because he threw down
on the killer, making him stop. Whereupon
the killer turned the gun on himself, committing suicide, before
anybody could stop him. Both men violated Walmart’s “policy” of
not allowing guns on their property. They’ll probably ban this guy
from entering their stores with his gun in the future. They’re
short-sighted, that way. But this is a good example of one violation
canceling out the other. If that “good guy” hadn’t been there
with his gun, this murderer might have gotten away with a double
murder—and we don’t want that. And this whole thing graphically
shows the fallacy of Walmart’s “gun-free zone” policy on their
property, which makes their customers and staff vulnerable to such
people. (Gun Watch)
3-2-1 "Gun Control!"
In other news, “Water Is Wet.” The anti-gun fools are out in full
force demanding more and more of their USELESS, unenforceable gun
control laws that never do ANYTHING to stop, or even slow down “gun
crime” after the latest school shooting in “gun-free”
California. Each and every one of their stupid laws is in effect
there, but somehow this 15-year-old student still got hold of the gun
he used to kill two fellow students and almost himself. His actually
HITTING those students must have been an accident because he is the
only person I know who could put a gun in his mouth, pull the
trigger, and miss. Naturally, the anti-gun crowd automatically want
to do more to keep guns out of the law-abiding while completely
ignoring the fact that the gun he used HAD to have been gotten
illegally since he was too young to buy one legally. So how the hell
would their laws stop him? The way to self defense is NOT to make
yourself defenseless. The anti-gun fools have to know that, yet they
keep on insisting on doing the same things, over and over again,
hoping for a different result. That’s the very definition of
insanity, but the insane have no idea they are insane. (Breitbart)

Gun-Grabbers Piling On
It’s what they do. Regardless of facts, they always do the same
thing. Any time somebody fires a gun at somebody else, even if it’s
in self defense, or a police action to protect us all, the anti-gun
fools scream for more of the same useless, unenforceable anti-gun
laws to be made. Never mind they not only do nothing to stop, or even
slow down “gun crime,” they make it worse, by disarming the
law-abiding, so they are defenseless against the lawbreakers, who
just ignore their insipid laws. I really get tired of writing these
same words over and over again, while being roundly ignored by the
anti-gun fools. The Saugus killings, for instance: numerous laws were
violated by the killer, and the shooting happened in a state with
very strict anti-gun laws, already on the books, that were useless to
stop this killer. “What the Saugus High School shooting may
underscore, according to gun rights activists, is the failure of
strict Golden State gun control laws. It’s against the law to have
a gun on a school campus, illegal for a teen to be carrying a
concealed handgun, illegal for a minor to have a handgun and for
anyone to obtain a firearm without a background check in California.
It’s also against the law to shoot people and commit murder. None
of these restrictions prevented the Santa Clarita tragedy.” But
anti-gun fools, true to form, are jumping up and down, demanding all
kinds of anti-gun laws be “piled on top of” existing laws—which
do NOTHING to stop such tragedies. For instance, they demand “assault
weapons bans,” when assault weapons did not enter into the
killings. (Just
common sense)
Yes, They're That Stupid!
In Oklahoma, at First Union Baptist Church, they put up signs that
might as well say, “We’re defenseless. Come on in and kill us.”
Actually, what they say is, “We are a gun-free zone.” Churches
all over the state are following suit, as they rush to make sure
their parishioners are totally defenseless if a gunman comes in to
kill a few of them. It’s the usual stupid response to “gun
violence.” Make yourself defenseless against the lawless, who
ignore such signs and bring their guns, anyway. Anti-gun fools bemoan
the very idea of several people in the congregation “packing,” as
if they are going to bring their legal guns and those legal guns are
going to kill a few people. Lost on them is the whole idea that it is
the ILLEGAL guns that are the problem, not those legally owned. That
the way to self defense is NOT to disarm yourself. The lawless will
bring their guns there, anyway, no matter what those stupid signs
say. They might as well post “No Wolves” signs on a sheep ranch.
The wolves aren’t going to pay any more attention than will the
lawless, if they want to bring their guns.(KTUL)

"Only Racists Own Guns"
That remark was made by Dumocrat presidential candidate Pete
Buttcrack...er, uh, Buttgurgle. Or is it Buttgaggle. I can never
tell. Such a crack is ample evidence that Dumocrats simply want to
control access to guns for ALL Americans so they can do what they
want with them if they get elected to office by gullible voters. They
will never be able to
control access to ALL guns, but they don’t worry about that. The
ones they can’t control are in the hands of lawbreakers, and they
feel a definite kinship with them, since they are lawbreakers
pretending to be the government. Slamming people who simply wish to
be able to defend themselves against those lawbreakers is a common
ploy used by would-be demagogues to “criminalize” a legal action.
And having guns for self defense IS legal, and NOT racist. That is
only true in the “fevered imagination” of such fools as
ButtGiggle, and is used only as a means of demonizing those with whom
he disagrees. Frankly, just making such a declaration shows a certain
racism on his part. A racism that should never be allowed near the
White House. We
need to stop electing such people to office where they can make many
attempts to usurp the Second amendment to the Constitution. Being
against gun ownership should be a bar to being elected to anything,
for our own safety. (The Moment)
Ignorant, Stupid Fools!
That’s the best description I can give to the anti-gun fools who
insist on making more and more anti-gun laws when they have to know
they don’t work worth a damn to limit the number of guns in the
hands of criminals. All they do is limit the number of guns in the
hands of the law-abiding, most of whom are NOT the problem, anyway.
They only make the law-abiding, who are the favorite targets of the
lawless, defenseless against the millions of ILLEGAL guns out there
in the hand of the lawless. The very idea on which the anti-gun scam
is based is illogical. First, you can’t eliminate crime by
eliminating guns. Next, you can’t stop the lawless from getting the
guns they use to victimize the law-abiding by making laws. They just
ignore them. They ARE criminals, after all. They don’t obey laws.
Period. So why would they bother to obey a piddling little law that
says they can’t be armed while they commit their other crimes? I
think their main goal is to criminalize self defense for everybody
but those working for the government, one way or the other by first,
making guns very hard to get for the law-abiding, while criminals get
their guns easily in a back alley somewhere. They
call their laws “common sense gun laws,” but they’re anything
BUT common sense. They’re ignorant, stupid, and illogical, but the
law-abiding DO obey them, making them “easy targets” for the
lawless. (Just common sense)

What Will Happen Then?
The anti-gun fools would dearly love to eliminate all LEGAL guns from
existence. They have no way to do anything about the millions of
ILLEGAL guns there are in existence, so what happens then? First off,
law breakers are “enabled.” With legal guns no longer in
existence, they can have “free rein” over the law-abiding, who
are then defenseless against them. But those lawless thugs will be in
fierce competition with the government, which will no longer be
constrained by their citizens being armed, and well able to resist
their efforts to take what is theirs. So millions will die, as they
have in other countries where guns were completely banned. A dictator
who has “taken over” in an unfortunate country sees, as his first
necessary action, the banning of legal guns from existence in his
newly-acquired country. Then he sets out to murder each and every
citizen who may, or may not, oppose him, in any way. He will have no
trouble doing that, for they have nothing to use in defense. That has
to be their ultimate goal, because all their anti-gun laws do NOTHING
to stop, or even slow down “gun crime,” and, in fact, INCREASE it
by disarming the law-abiding, making them defenseless. It’s a
tragedy, but one that is self-imposed, by
allowing their government to disarm them..
(Just common sense)
Why're Gun Sales Down?
It’s a strange reason, and not as a result of the anti-gun
hysteria—in a way. The gun industry had a real
boom going during the Obama administration, fearing that Obama was
going to somehow take their guns away. So they bought more and more
of them and hid them away so he couldn’t get them all. But
today, it’s a different thing. They aren’t so much afraid that
Trump is going to come for their guns, so they’re not buying so
many. It’s a reverse effect of gun control. The more they try, the
more guns we’re going to get. Obama was one of the biggest anti-gun
fools ever to become president. Or maybe THE worst. So inversely, he
was the bet gun salesman there ever was. The more he spoke against
guns, the more guns Americans bought, both legally, and illegally.
The result was more and more guns out there, not fewer. And that
makes things more difficult for the miscreants who use their guns
(legal and illegal) to victimize the law-abiding, because they can’t
be as sure that their intended victims will not be armed, and able to
defend themselves. Criminals
LOVE gun control, for that reason. They SEEK OUT “gun-free zones”
because they can be pretty sure the law-abiding will not be armed,
there. they’re law-abiding people, who OBEY gun laws, even while
knowing they’re stupid, and useless for reducing gun crime and,
instead, INCREASE it by disarming the law-abiding. (Prepared Gun Owners)

Felon Cops
When gunfire broke out in Santa Clarita, California school, the response
time for the cops was 16 seconds. How is that possible, you may ask.
Well. Cops are people, too, and several off-duty cops were dropping
their children off at the school when the gunfire started. They
rushed in and saved some lives by giving instant First Aid to
victims. I don’t know if one of them was the “armed civilian”
who put a stop to the shooter’s day, but they are heroes, even if
they did not get a chance to confront the shooter. But it they had
done this in Connecticut, they’d have been felons and could
possibly be sent to prison for “being on school grounds armed.”
Their law applies equally to simple citizens, AND cops. It’s an
idiot way to make a law, but that’s the way their law is written.
Believe it or not, California’s similar law does NOT apply to cops,
but I’m sure some simple-minded lawmaker will soon introduce a bill
to change all that. Anti-gun laws are DESIGNED to only apply to the
law-abiding, because lawbreakers just IGNORE them. The way the
Connecticut law is written illustrates graphically the STUPIDITY of
anti-gun lawmakers in liberal Connecticut. They still think the way
to self defense is to make yourself DEFENSELESS against the
law-breakers. (Bearing Arms)
Gun Control Insanity
The politicians have no idea what to do about “gun crime,” so
they PRETEND they’re doing something by passing incessant anti-gun
laws that shooters just IGNORE as they go about getting their guns
ILLEGALLY or just stealing them. Yes, anti-gun laws can help, AFTER
the killings. We must have laws making it illegal for a felon to be
in possession of a gun, and against USING that gun in an illegal
manner, so
we can prosecute offenders.
But they’re USELESS to keep that “gun crime” from happening, in
the fist place. That must be very frustrating for the anti-gun fools,
and the gullible legislators they convince to make their useless
laws. Their very approach to limiting “gun crime” is wrong, and
short-sighted. You can’s stop gun crime by taking guns away from
the law-abiding. You just can’t. But
since they have no idea what to do, they keep doing things that will
not, and do not work, and tell everybody they’re “doing
something” to end gun crime. But they aren’t. That is proven,
every day, buy the fact that where anti-gun laws are the tightest,
gun crime is at its highest. And where anti-gun laws are loosest, or
non-existent, gun crime is DOWN. Those are figures the anti-gun fools
routinely ignore. They just want to disarm America, for their own
purposes. (Just common sense)

In Gun-Free California
What?
This should never happen, according to the anti-gun fools in
California, because they have some of the most oppressive
anti-gun laws on the books in liberal-run California. But in the
THIRD mass shooting in California lately, four people are dead and 10
more injured when a gunman opened fire on an innocent backyard party
being held to watch a football game. “It is the third mass shooting
in California in less than a week. It follows a school
shooting in Santa Clarita that left two students dead, and a
domestic
violence incident in San Diego, in which a father shot his wife
and four children before turning the gun on himself.” My question
is this: how is it possible for this to happen ONCE, much less three
times in less than a week, in a state with such draconian anti-gun
laws? Liberals are quick to tell us those laws PREVENT such killings,
but they do NOT. They are not stupid. They have to KNOW their
anti-gun laws are USELESS and, contrary to their claims, INCREASE
“gun crime” by disarming the law-abiding, leaving the way wide
open for the lawless, who just IGNORE them. There has to be an
ulterior motive, and it is POWER. The power to tell us what we can,
and cannot do in all things. (Time)
Knee-Jerk Reaction
That’s what happens after every “gun crime.” Most gun crimes
are committed by people who get their guns illegally, but after a gun
crime, stupid politicians immediately clamor for the passage of more
laws to control LEGAL gun ownership and use. What the hell good that
does in keeping criminals, who obey NO laws, from getting and using
guns, I don’t know. They call their anti-gun laws “common sense”
laws. But nothing could be further from common sense. They have to
know they don’t work worth a damn, but they keep making them,
making the law-abiding “easy targets” for those who get their
guns illegally before committing their other crimes—with their
illegal guns. I know what drives the politicians—it is the
knowledge that they will someday come for your property, and don’t
want to get shot when they do. But the anti-gun fools? That’s
impossible to figure. I think it’s the fine salaries they pay
themselves out of the money given them by the fools who “buy”
their lies. And lies they are, because they can’t tell the truth
and still promote controlling LEGAL guns while criminals go wild
using ILLEGAL guns. (Just common sense)

Ignoring the Warnings
In just about every mass shooting (mostly in “gun-free” schools),
the shooter gave off
many signals that such an event was imminent. One shooting at a
military base in Kentucky, the man who became a mass killer gave off
many signals. He was supposed to be a “counselor,” but was,
himself, in need of counseling. He dressed like a Muslim, spouted
Muslim terrorist pap, and generally made a nuisance of himself before
he took a gun and killed a bunch of people. In another case, one mass
killer was “contacted” by the cops 69 times before going into a
school and killing some students, In all these cases, the shooter
gave off many warnings, all of which were IGNORED. The anti-gun fools
predictably target the guns, and ignore the whole idea of NOTICING
such warnings and doing something about them. They also refuse to
allow one of the best defenses against such school shootings, which
is allowing teachers and other staff who are already legal gun
carriers to bring their guns to school, as if those people will “go
wild” and become mass killers, themselves. Actually, having guns
there in the hands of people who are not in uniform and can’t be
located and killed FIRST would be the first line of defense against a
mass killer. But they refuse
to credit that while
kids get murdered. (Bearing Arms)
Gun Control Equals Death!
“If your government tells you that you don’t need a gun, you need
a gun.” I don’t know who said that, but it is a truism. Adolph
Hitler had complete gun control, and then he went on to murder
millions. Not just Jews, other people, as well. And they had no
recourse, because they didn’t have guns to use to oppose him and
his “Brown Shirt” thugs. Josef Stalin had complete gun control in
Soviet Russia, and HE went on to murder millions of defenseless,
unarmed citizens. Fidel Castro made guns in the hands of his citizens
illegal on his first day after taking over in Cuba, and predictably
murdered many defenseless citizens. Disarming citizens is the first
step for a dictator when he takes over. No dictator wants his
“people” to be armed when he comes to victimize
them because he doesn’t want himself, or his thugs to get shot as
they victimize his citizens. All the Dumocrat candidates for
president want to “take your guns.” Doesn’t that tell you
something about what they have planned for you if you’re dumb
enough to elect them? You think it can’t happen here? They want to
repeal the Second Amendment. What do you think they’re going to do
if that ever happens? (Just common sense)

Gangs Won't Surrender Guns
Surprise, surprise! The “police commissioner” in New Zealand met
with a number of “gang leaders” in an effort to get them to give
up their guns. Not unexpectedly, that effort fizzled. The gangs
refused to give up their guns. They know that the new anti-gun laws
are a boon for them, as they disarm more law-abiding people, making
it easier for them to be victimized by those gangs, who will still
have their guns. I doubt if it’s much different here, since most of
the “gun violence” is committed by gangs. Especially in Chicago,
but in any big
city you could mention, too, and
even in some smaller ones..
The
lawless are the lawless, no matter what the laws. They ignore them.
In the US, one of the worst places for mass shootings is a school.
Every school in the nation is a gun-free zone, and the lawless SEEK
OUT places like that, where they can be pretty confident there will
be no guns there they don’t know about. Any uniformed “resource
officers,” they can locate and “deal with (kill)” early on,
before they start killing children and other staff. The anti-gun
fools have to know this. It is obvious, even to the most ignorant.
But they keep them that way, while wondering why people go there to
kill children. (Gun Free Zone)
California Gun Killings
Wait a minute. California has some of the toughest anti-gun laws on
the books, so how is this possible? Someone had to have either gotten
his guns illegally or passed a background check and got them legally
in order to bring off this outage. I thought all these tight laws
were supposed to STOP things like this? Why weren’t they able? The
truth is, this is yet another proof that anti-gun laws are useless to
stop, or even slow down “gun crime.” Only the law-abiding obey
them, and they aren’t, for the most part, the problem. The problem
people are criminal, crazies, and Islamic terrorists, who regularly
kill innocent people to make a political point. And they couldn’t
care less about anti-gun laws. They are bent on violating much worse
laws than those insignificant prohibitions on their use of guns in
committing their other crimes. Laws are for those who obey them.
Thus, the only people to whom these laws will apply are the
law-abiding, who obey them. Completely ignoring the lawless, who
routinely DISobey them. So what the hell good are they? They merely
make it easier for the lawless to victimize the law-abiding. The
anti-gun fools have to know this, but they ignore it and keep making
their useless anti-gun laws, then ask in wonder, why gun crime
persists. The news articles are still reporting that 5 people died in
this California killing spree, but the death toll has risen to 6. So
what are California lawmakers going to do, now? Make
more
useless anti-gun laws for them to ignore? (People)

"Common Sense Gun Control"
That’s what they call it, but nothing about gun control is common
sense. The very basis for gun control doesn’t track. You CANNOT end
gun crime by taking guns away from the law-abiding; and there is NO
WAY you’re ever going to do away with every gun in existence. You
may take some legally-owned guns away from gullible owners who
believe your guff, but the criminals, who are the ones who ARE the
problem, are not going to give up their illegally-gotten guns. They
are, after all, a staple in their “toolbox.” You can establish
all the “gun-free zones’ you wish, but the lawless merely regard
them as “target-rich areas” where the law-abiding will not be
armed—thus giving them an “easy ride” when robbing, raping, and
killing innocent people. The way to self defense is NOT to disarm
yourself and make yourself an “easy target” for the lawless, who
routinely IGNORE gun laws while committing their other crimes. The
anti-gun fools, who push all these useless laws must have an ulterior
motive because they have to know they don’t work worth a damn in
doing what they claim they want to accomplish. (Just
common sense)
And Do What?
Dumocrat Kamilla Harris bemoans politicians not doing anything about
“gun violence” after that shooting at a Halloween party. So next
is the question: “Do what?” What the hell does she want us to DO?
She doesn’t say, because she doesn’t know. And neither does
anybody else. Because the ONLY thing we can do is make it legal for
the law-abiding to have their own guns, so they can dispense with the
users of ILLEGAL guns by killing them when they come to victimize the
law-abiding. That is a sure way to “reduce gun crime,” one gun
criminal at a time. If we stop one shooting by so doing, we will have
done more than ALL their anti-gun laws have ever done. She, and other
anti-gun fools are quick to condemn us for “doing nothing” to
reduce gun crime, but, like the others, have no idea WHAT to do. So
she only gripes about it and thinks she is “shaming us” into
doing something. But what she wants us to do is the impossible. We
know how we can help, but, like all other anti-gun fools, she won’t
hear of it. It involves letting the law-abiding defend themselves by
letting them have guns to use to do that. (NRA-ILA)

Airbnb: No More Parties
Not surprisingly, Airbnb has banned rentals of its properties for
parties after that mass shooting in Orinda, California. Not
a lot different from banning guns, hoping to eliminate gun violence.
Word is, that the property owner himself told the renter “no
parties” and was told the rental was for a small gathering of 12
people for a family reunion. Meanwhile the party was advertised on
social media and hundreds showed up. So the party was shut down. The
motive for the shooting is still unknown, and nobody has been
apprehended. So if course Airbnb blames the party, before even
finding out why he shooting even happened. This rather than finding
out why the customer lied to the renter while advertising the party
widely. It’s not the party, it’s the PEOPLE. Who wanted to kill
people at that party, and why? Was it a gang killing designed to kill
a certain victim, that got out of hand? We don’t know yet, and may
never know. This is California, you know. Where some of the tightest
anti-gun laws in the country are in effect, but somehow
didn’t stop the shooter, or shooters, from getting their guns.
What’s
next? In the future, when a house is rented for a honeymoon and
someone gets shot, will they stop renting for honeymoons? (KTVU Fox 2)
Gun Control Is Deadly
I like to talk about Chicago, where gun control is tight, while
criminals have no trouble getting their guns, and the gun crime rate
is the highest in the nation. But Chicago is not the worst example of
the fallacy of anti-gun laws. Every large city with tight anti-gun
laws has correspondingly high gun crime statistics. But that’s not
the whole story: In Mexico, where
the anti-gun laws are really draconian, and where only ONE PERCENT of
Mexicans can legally buy guns, the gun crime rate has DOUBLED since
those laws were written and imposed upon the people. This is but one
more
instance
that proves my point. But the anti-gun fools, as usual, are not
listening. They have a “tin ear” to facts that disprove their
ignorant theories. They see these things, and then go on to make more
and more stupid anti-gun laws they SAY reduces gun crime, while they
do
NOT. They
only INCREASE it by making “easy targets” of the law-abiding, who
DO obey their laws, while criminals (who obey NO laws) predictably do
not. What
drives them, I don’t know. I only know their ideas are worthless,
and deadly to those who obey them, while they make it easier for the
lawless to victimize the law-abiding. (John Lott)

Everybody Gets A Gun
Anti-gun fools are quick to tell you their laws “keep us safe.”
But they don’t. They make us much LESS safe by disarming us in the
face of all the millions of illegal guns there are out there in the
hands of the lawless, who do not obey laws—ANY laws, much less
those that say they can’t be armed when they commit their other
crimes. The people who think they can “eliminate gun crime” by
passing a law against it are fools. And they must be willful fools
who have to be aware that their laws do not stop, nor slow down
anybody who wants to victimize us with their illegal guns. And the
lawmakers who go along with them, passing many useless, unenforceable
bills into law to take away our right t be armed for self
defense—something that is guaranteed us by the Constitution—are
worse, because they ought to know better. Each and every Dumocrat now
running for president is an anti-gun fool, and most are fools
otherwise, too. More reasons never to vote for a Dumocrat. (Bearing Arms)
"Common Sense Gun Control"
That’s one of the biggest contradiction in terms I have seen in my
many years of life. What is “common sense” about laws that do
NOTHING to “stop gun crime” and, instead, PROMOTE it by disarming
the law-abiding, making them “easy targets” for the very gun
crime their laws pretend to stop? What is “common
sense” about creating many “gun-free zones” that become
“killing zone” for potential mass killers who SEEK OUT such
places in which to do their killing? What is
“common sense” about making all schools gun-free zones when to do
so makes them tempting targets for mass shooters while prohibiting
legal gun owners from being able to bring their guns to school so as
to have some chance at not only self defense, but defense of their
students? The entire concept of targeting the guns is so far from
being “common sense” as to be ridiculous. Criminals don’t obey
laws. So making laws against them carrying guns is so silly, it’s
sublime—and far from being “common sense.” And it is based
completely on the IGNORANCE of those passing such laws. They can’t
be intelligent ans support the passage of such laws. (Just

What Fools Thy Be!
I don’t know what drives anti-gun fools, but their every move so
far has been stupid. Now Elizabeth Warren wants to eliminate all
armed school resource officers, making school students ABSOLUTELY
defenseless against any fool who comes in wanting to kill a few
children. She
must really hate children to want them to be killed so easily.
The very idea that the way to self defense is to make yourself
defenseless is pure stupidity! But they continue It, and call it
“common sense.” Being so stupid should cause them to be BARRED
from running for ANY office where they can actually personify their
stupidity by making laws that get law-abiding people killed.
Dumocrats vie with each other to come up with the stupidest laws, and
anti-gun laws are only part of their stupidities. Warren wants
“Medicare for All,” which is a pipe-dream. The cost ($52
TRILLION) over
just ten years will absolutely BANKRUPT this country. She thinks she
can finance it by taxing the rich. She really thinks the rich will
not take steps to avoid any tax she levies, even if they actually
made enough to pay this stupid theft
of their earnings.
Where we get such stupid politicians is a mystery to me, but we get
them in large quantities, mostly in the Dumocrat Party. There are
some in the GOP, but not nearly as many. (Truth About Guns)
"Leftist Policies At Fault"
Andrew Pollack, whose daughter, Willow, was murdered along with
others, at the Stoneman Douglas High School, in Parkland, Florida. He
rightly rejects the idea that anti-gun laws will, in any way, prevent
such shootings, in the future. What will prevent them is actually
PUNISHING students for their criminal acts instead of refusing to
punish them to “reduce juvenile arrests.” You don’t “reduce
crime” by refusing to punish the criminals. The shooter in Parkland
PASSED a “background check” when he bought the gun he used in
that massacre, because the school ignored previous criminal acts, so
his record was clear, and he was able to pass that background check.
Refusing to punish criminality among students to “reduce juvenile
arrests” is a left-wing idea, and CONTRIBUTES to law-breaking,
including mass shootings. Punishing student law-breakers is a good
start, but allowing legally-armed teachers and
other staff to bring their guns to school would be a good thing, too.
But anti-gun fools will not hear of that, while they remain
defenseless when somebody comes in and starts killing their students.
Their ideas haven’t worked, so why not try something that WOULD?

Jews Hate Firearms
They always have, and for several silly reasons, among them the
Utopian thinking that, if you could eliminate guns, crime would
disappear, and the world would be safer, and the “Ostrich
‘head-in-the-sand’ syndrome.” But there is no way we are ever
going to get rid of all guns. Millions of guns are “out there,”
and they aren’t going to go away. It is that “Ostrich Syndrome”
that is responsible for the miserable deaths of six million Jews
during WWII. If they had had guns, the Nazis would not have found
them so easy to line up, put in rail cars, and send to the gas
chambers. Of course, there are some Jews who are not so ignorant, and
do arm themselves. They will not be so easily murdered as the
“victims of the holocaust.” The stories of civilizations that
allowed themselves to be disarmed, and then were murdered by the
millions by their own government are rife. The Jews were not the only
people the Nazis murdered by the millions. ALL dictators, and
would-be dictators disarm their people first thing, when they take
power because they know an armed population will not be easy to
subdue, and they don’t want to die. (JPFO)
Anti-Gun Hysteria
It’s as if any gun is a living thing, an instrument of evil, never
to be spoken of, by
anti-gun fools, and sometimes people who CLAIM to be gun experts. In
one case, the military called a bunch of soldiers together for a
“briefing.” They were taught many different ways to keep their
identities as soldiers a secret, including such things as never doing
the same thing twice, so nobody could predict what you might do, at
any given time. But there was one thing that was suspiciously missing
from they “briefing.” Mention of being armed when off base. When
asked why that was, the “briefer” replied with that age-old
anti-gun saw, that you’d be more likely to shoot yourself than a
criminal. This was being told to a bunch of SOLDIERS, who were well
trained in gun use. The instructor was then asked if HE was armed
when off base, to which he sheepishly replied, “Yes.” There it
is, the usual, “for me, but not for thee” of anti-gun hysteria.
In many cases, they recommend “running,” but I don’t think
that’s anything real, since you can’t outrun a bullet. As a LAST
RESORT, you can FIGHT, using anything you can get your hands on.
Laptops, scissors, knives, coffee mugs. Everything BUT a gun. They
just can’t get their minds around the idea of average people
actually being armed, and trained in gun use. Except for them, of
course. (National Review)

"Shoula Coulda Woulda"
This would be funny if it weren’t so serious. The mother of a
gunman who tried to rob a store and got shot to
death
for his
trouble, bemoans the fact that the store he tried to rob with his gun
was not a “gun-free zone,” so there wouldn’t be a chance for
the store clerk to defend himself. These parents are really angry
that the intended victim was allowed to be armed, completely
forgetting, of course, that their son WAS also armed, illegally.
Mom said, “If there was to be a death, it was not the place of an
employee at Pizza Hut. It was the place of the police.” Oh,
yeah—when they finally arrived, long after a pizza place employee
had been shot and killed by their son! Some people have strange ways
of thinking. To bemoan someone being able to legally carry a gun for
self defense because he killed a robber who was using a gun illegally
is really stupid. But they’re too damned stupid to know that. It’s
too bad for the robber that one of his intended victims was armed,
and could defend himself. Maybe Mom should have taught her son
better. Those
parents should be slapped
down for
even thinking that way. People have a right to defend themselves
against people like her son, who just ignore laws they don’t like.
You
point a gun at someone, you take your chances. He lost.

A Win In Montana
In Montana they did what should be done routinely all over the
country. The state Supreme Court
struck down an unconstitutional law passed in Missoula to limit gun
ownership and use early
in the process.
Such laws are patently unconstitutional and should be struck down
routinely. But unfortunately, they are not. The Constitution states
clearly that “the right of the people to bear arms shall
not be infringed.”
Such laws infringe on that right and, according to the Constitution,
are not laws, at all. But they are often enforced until the Supreme
Court declares them unconstitutional. That sometimes takes a long
time, and by the time it happens, lives and reputations are ruined,
families broken up and financially ruined; by an unconstitutional
law. In Montana, they ‘short-circuited” that, and declared it
unconstitutional before it could do much damage. Politicians who pass
such laws should be punished, but will not be.
They would have to themselves vote in a law for such punishment, and
they will not. The
Founders were geniuses in their writing of the Constitution,
but they were not perfect. They thought the embarrassment of having a
law declared unconstitutional would prevent politicians from trying
to pass such laws, They were wrong.
