Proved It Again!

Again and again I point out to anti-gun fools the complete idiocy of their position, and they routinely ignore me and make their useless, unenforceable laws limiting the law-abiding people’s ability to own and use guns in self defense, getting them KILLED by law-breakers, who routinely ignore their laws. They think if those law-abiding people were to be armed, they’d “go nuts” and “shoot up the countryside.” Which completely ignores the fact that the law-breakers DO. I tell them and tell them that law-abiding people with guns can stop crimes. Well, it happened again in Chicago, fergawdsakes! Several carjackers tried to jack the car driven by a woman when her husband, who was one of the few legal “concealed carriers” in Chicago, began firing on them, causing all but one of them to run. He held him for the cops, who found and arrested others later. This AGAIN proves my contention that law-abiding armed people can do what the cops can’t do, because they are THERE when it happens. They do not “arrive later” like the cops, who can then only document the crime and MAYBE later catch the criminals, AFTER they have maybe killed their victim. Th sorry thing is that there are so many stupid people making and enforcing laws and getting people killed. We need to “vote the fools out!” Gun crime is actually going down, as more and more people are allowed to carry guns for self defense. Now gangs only kill one person a day in Chicago. Not a success story, but a step in the right direction. (Bearing Arms)

Won't Make Schools Safe

It makes me crazy when I think of the sheer stupidity shown by anti-gun fools when they want to make schools defenseless against mass shooters who see them as a favorite target. The concept is simple: you do NOT disarm yourself for self defense. In the old West, a man who did not carry a gun was a prime target for outlaws because they knew he was defenseless. The same is true of today’s schools. Whenever some fool goes into a school and murders a few students or staff, the anti-gun fools “jump all over it,” demanding they make themselves completely defenseless against the next fool. There is ONE SURE WAY to put a stop to mass shootings in schools. That is to let teachers and staff who are “concealed carriers” with proper training bring their guns to school with them. Just the existence of guns in schools is NOT a danger to the students. Like guns, fire can kill you. But fire can also be warming, and keep you comfortable. The existence of fire itself is NOT a danger, as long as it is under control. The same is true with guns. They can be used for ill, or used for good. And we need to have them THERE to stop ill use of them. (Zero Hedge)

Ignoring Reality

Is it any wonder there are so many mass shootings? The anti-gun fools that permeate our law-making bodies not only ignore the reality that the absolute best defense against a mass shooter is to allow the law-abiding to carry their own guns with which to defend themselves, they move quickly, every time, to further DISARM the law-abiding and make life easier for the shooters to kill defenseless people. The way to self defense is NOT to disarm yourselves. That’s a fact. Not supposition, and not just my opinion. It is proven many times in cases like that Texas church, where two parishioners who were acting as volunteer security “took out” a potential mass shooter before he could kill more than a couple of people. These were not professional security guards. They were just people who were legally allowed to carry guns who jumped up and instantly “put down” a would-be mass killer, in seconds. The anti-gun fools tell you the cops can protect you—and they can—AFTER they get there, minutes later, after the shooter has killed many people. Having armed people THERE, on the scene, instantly, can make all the difference, as was again proven at that Texas church. (Seattle Times)

"No Legal Effect"

The Virginia Attorney General is now saying that those ubiquitous gun sanctuary resolutions “have no legal effect.” Seems to me they want to “have their cake and eat it, too.” Liberals agree with the “sanctuary city” movement when it supports something with which they agree—like illegal immigration creating more Dumocrat votes. But they then say a similar thing supporting something with which they do not agree is “not legal.” For my part, both are illegal as a matter of law. If a county sheriff doesn’t want to enforce unconstitutional laws, he has but to NOT do so. He doesn’t have to announce it. But a sanctuary city that will not obey the law MUST announce it, to tell the illegal aliens where they will be safe from ICE. Or reasonably safe. Looks like lawmaking to suit themselves, not to suit the law. It amazes me how politicians can twist the law to suit themselves. But in this case, they can’t. If a sheriff doesn’t want to enforce an unconstitutional law, he has but to not do it, and all the state can do is take him to court, where they will lose. (Virginia Mercury)

Gun Control Is foolish

Why am I writing this again? Gun control, as written, is a damned fool action. It does not do what it is advertised to do, and only violates the Second Amendment rights of innocent people, leaving the field open to those law-breakers who ignore such laws and victimize the innocent. I have to keep writing this over and over again because when I do, like the gun laws themselves, I am ignored by the gun-grabbers in their zeal to disarm all Americans, for whatever reason. They DO work the way the politicians wish they would work. They do reduce the possibility that those politicians’ minions will run into a gun when they come to take our property under color of law. Hitler knew it. Stalin knew it, and Castro knew it. And every would-be despot, everywhere knows it: the first thing you need to do on taking power is to disarm your populace, Then you can do with them as you will because it will then be illegal just to have the means of self defense—a gun. So they cannot defend themselves against any criminals, even those wearing badges. Criminals love anti-gun laws, because it makes life easier for them as they go about victimizing honest people. (Bearing Arms)

Crooks Running Things

There’s one thing deadly wrong with our system. That is that we have no way of keeping criminals out of positions of authority where they get to make the rules for the rest of us to follow (of course, they always exempt themselves). One good example is the Dumocrat drive for “Medicare for All!” Meanwhile, every Member of Congress has a health care service we can only dream about, and that’s without paying a penny for it. They voted it to themselves many years ago and keep adding to it. Then there are the politicians (mostly Dumocrats) who want to disarm all Americans so we’re helpless against their “minions” when they come for our property under “color of law.” Don’t believe it? Check out the RICO Laws, which allow them to arbitrarily decide that this large amount of money you diligently saved up to buy something was “probably” illegally obtained, and just TAKE it, without any court action first. And the agency that took it gets to use it as they wish. Today’s dollars are designed with a “strip” embedded that allows them to stand by the sidewalk (or whatever) and “scan you” to see if you’re carrying enough cash to make it worth it to rob you. Yes, you CAN sue to get it back—IF you have some money left to pay the lawyers—AFTER they take it. They’ll usually agree to give you SOME of it back, if you agree to let them keep the rest. They SAY the anti-gun laws are to “take guns off the streets.” What they are really for is to keep the political “minions” from meeting too many guns when they come to rob you. (Just common sense)

Using the Left's Playbook

And it is making them dirty their drawers. They sponsored “sanctuary cities” all over the country where liberal city governments declared themselves “above the law” and would not help ICE in their lawful efforts to enforce immigration law. They said it was okay to refuse to follow the law. Then pro-gun people declared “gun sanctuary cities (and counties) where they would not enforce those UNCONSTITUTIONAL gun confiscation laws, and anti-gun fools lost their minds. The Virginia AG even came right out and “ruled” that they MUST obey those laws, because it “is the law.” But it isn’t. If ANY LAW violates the Constitution, it is NO LAW, no matter if it is written down and voted on by a legislature. It is not worth the paper it it written on. You just can’t make unconstitutional laws and insist they be enforced, even if you think you can. And there is another factor. The American citizen is used to being able to arm himself against law-breakers and, if they succeed in taking away all legal guns, there will be a revolution. The British tried it, and the revolution that created this great nation ensued. If our politicians think they can disarm this nation’s citizens without consequences, they are sorely mistaken. And if there is such a revolution, I will be in the forefront of its supporters. (Bearing Arms)

They'll Find A Way

Criminals are a resourceful lot. If you take away their guns (which, in itself, is an impossible dream), they’ll find a way. They’ll use a knife. Or a club. Or a tree limb. Anything with enough heft to put their victims down. The anti-gun fools think if they take the guns out of the picture they can eliminate crime. They’re wrong. There has been crime since one caveman hit another over the head with a club and stole his dinner. Taking away their tools doesn’t stop the law-breakers. They just find something else to use to victimize their victims. But the important thing to note is that “gun control” is NOT to stop crime. It is to HELP criminals. The ones who wear badges and come to take your property under color of law. And to better control YOU while they do it. Any politician who demands you give up your guns is suspect, and should never be elected to any office. Every despot in history, as one of the first things he (or she) did on taking power, was to make guns illegal for anybody but HIS/HER people. Hitler did it. Then went on to kill millions. Stalin did it, then murdered his own millions. Castro did it, and nobody knows how many innocent people he killed. Do you see a pattern here? Making guns illegal (except for those in the hand of the despot’s people) make their citizens defenseless against them. That’s the “bottom line” in gun control. It’s not about guns. It’s about control. Of YOU. (Just common sense)

It's Christmas Time

It’s also Hanuka, and maybe special days from other religions. It’s a time to be with friends and family, not for politics. So there will be no updates here until December 26 so I can spend some time with my family. I’ll be back then, going “full-bore.”

No Social Life Atall!

In Chicago, many would have no social life if it were not for attending the funerals and wakes for previous victims of shootings. Recently, in “tight gun laws” Chicago, 13 people were wounded while attending a “memorial party” for a previous gunshot victim. This shooting was described as “an isolated incident,” although how they figured that, I don’t know. This comes amid Chicago bragging that “gun crime” had gone down 14% so far, in Chicago. Only about 475 people have been killed through December. Not mentioned is the possibility this shooting was gang-related, but it was noted that it occurred in a “high-crime area,” which usually means gang activity. Recently there was a day in Chicago where NOBODY was killed by a gun, and politicians bought a lot of champagne to celebrate. Only in Chicago. I’ve got a nephew who lives in Chicago, and I’m always worried about him living there, even though he doesn’t live in one of those “high-crime areas.” Hopefully he doesn’t have reason to pass through one, though. Gang members killing each other aren’t very good shots, and they don’t care how many innocent people they accidentally kill. The Chicago cops attribute their problems to “too many guns on the streets.” But that’s wrong. The problem is too many FOOLS on the streets with ILLEGAL guns. (Mail News)

Anti-Gun Stupidity

I can’t believe the rampant stupidity that is represented by the anti-gun fool movement. Their very basic belief is stupid. They think, if they can “get rid of guns,” that will stop crime, altogether. They need to harken back to the middle ages, when the main weapon carried by bad guys and good guys alike was a knife or a sword. Crime was still rampant. Worse, in fact, than even today. They actually think they CAN “get rid of all guns.” But all their laws and regulations only apply to the LEGAL purchase and use of guns, which ignores the millions of ILLEGAL guns that are out there, in the hands of law-breakers. And there is NO WAY they can ever find, much less eliminate those millions of illegal guns. Nor stop the illegal sale of new guns to other law-breakers. Worse, their laws and regulations make it EASIER for the law-breakers to victimize the law-abiding, who DO obey their laws, even if they think they’re stupid. There’s one major flaw in their thinking: anti-gun laws only affect the law-abiding, while the law-breakers routinely ignore them and go right on victimizing the law-abiding. Law-breakers do not obey laws. That’s why they’re called law-breakers. So everything the anti-gun fools do is futile—IF you believe the phony reasons they give for wanting to disarm all Americans. Their real reason is obvious to intelligent people. They plan to come and take what is yours one day, and they want to be faced with as few guns as possible (Just common sense)

"Turn In Your Guns!"

That’s what we hear all the time. Every time somebody shoots a gun at another, even if it’s in self defense, the anti-gun fools and their dupes start yelling about “getting guns off the streets.” Which is an “impossible dream.” There is NO WAY you are going to get every gun in existence “off the street.” Every law they make will only be obeyed by the law-abiding, who are not the problem, at all. The problem is the law-breakers, who just ignore them and go right on victimizing the law-abiding, who do obey their stupid laws. In New Zealand, they instituted a national “gun buyback” program after a major shooting. People only “turned in” a few guns. It was (and is) a big failure because New Zealanders are smarter than they thought. Fact is, any politician who demands you “turn in your guns” is just trying to get those guns out of your hands so he (or his minions) can victimize you later. If you do “turn in your guns,” you will be defenseless when they come for your property under color of law. That’s the way they want it. The basic purpose of every politician is TOTAL CONTROL over you. Gun control is just a part of it.(Just common sense)

Arrested for 1 Shotgun Shell

Gun control gone completely crazy. They raided his home in military-style clothing, threw him and his girl friend on the ground, cuffed them like arch criminals, and tore his house apart, looking for guns. They found none. But they did find ONE shotgun shell he kept as a souvenir of a long-ago hunting trip, sent in cops in protective gear, and took it out, using tongs, very carefully. As if it was going to explode and kill them all. The raid was instigated by his estranged wife, who CLAIMED he threatened her with a gun, something he didn’t have, and which story was found to be unfounded later.

The raiders numbered THIRTY, all wearing “tactical gear,” all made up like soldiers. His 16-year-old son was in the shower, and they used a battering ram to get into the bathroom, cuffing him and putting him in a room with his siblings, all of whom were crying, wondering what was happening. He faces TWO YEARS in prison for having that useless shotgun shell. Such is life for the non-connected in Washington, DC. (Washington Times)

They Lie, and They Lie

Nancy Peelosi lied repeatedly about the number of kids 19 or younger having been killed by guns. The actual number is 7 children killed in a day, not 47, as she repeatedly “reported.” You have to really lie a lot to get “Four Pinocchios” from the Washington Post, but she did it. And gun control is not the only thing she has lied about. Unfortunately, I could write a book about the many lies she has told. When questioned about the disparity, she tried to make the questioner believe she just misspoke—many times. Another lie she tells—a lie of omission—is that most of those she lists were young gang members who were the instigators of their shootings and usually shot first, with an ILLEGAL gun. Frankly, I wonder how any of the “gun control” laws could have stopped that from happening. She touts all the usual ones, lists of legal gun owners she calls “background checks,” “gun lock safes,” and “gun-free zones,” just to name a few. “Gun buybacks” are just a way for bangers to get rid of their old, useless guns and have the money to buy new ones. Show me a single one of their anti-gun fool laws that has EVER stopped a single instance of “gun crime.” The biggest lie they tell is the one when they go on national TV and say they have. The Post says there’s no need to “goose the numbers” because “gun crime” is a serious problem. What is not said is none of the laws she touts does anything to solve that problem. (Truth About Guns)

Damned Fool Activism

These “activists” just haven’t thought things through. Two more cops were refused service at a California Starbucks. And Starbucks doesn’t seem to care. But who do they call when a thug with an ILLEGAL gun comes in to rob them, and maybe kill a few? The cops! They talked to Starbucks Corporate and they apologized, said, “The employees involved will not be scheduled for work while we investigate.” Well la te da! Typical corporate gobbledegook. Those employees were not fired (as this is written), and may not be. They just got a few days off. But listen to them holler if the cops refuse THEM service when some thug is robbing and killing them. This “anti-cop” activism is the stupidest thing I have ever encountered. These are the people who PROTECT us. To be anti-cop leaves yourself in persona; danger if they return the insult and refuse YOU service. The same thing applies to the “Anti-Trumpers.” They hate Trump supporters and Trump, himself, while he works tirelessly to improve their lives—and HAS improved the lives of many. There are many things like this that liberals promote. Things that are contraindicated and stupid. But liberals go right on promoting them, while they kill people. (News Channel 3)

Suing the Gun Maker

That’s about as stupid as suing the sun for you getting sunburned. If there is any competent judge in this country (or any country) who is not dedicated to pushing the liberal platform, I hope this gets in front of him/her. Frankly, if this is allowed to be adjudicated, then think about the thousands of lawsuits that are going to be filed against automakers because one of their customers did something stupid with their cars. There is nothing “actionable” in manufacturing guns. The only time the gun is able to hurt someone is when it is held in the hand of an evil-doer, and the manufacturer cannot be responsible for that. Yes, guns can (and do) kill people. Sometimes illegally, other times legally, by cops trying to keep us safe. If this suit succeeds, it will be a major miscarriage of justice, and will have a “chilling effect” on gun manufacturers everywhere. The person or persons filing this suit just want a “big payday” and they have selected this innocent maker of a LEGAL product to be the paymaster. It will also have a chilling effect on manufacturers of legal producers everywhere—not just gunmakers. they’re suing Smith & Wesson for not including “smart gun” technology in the manufacture of their guns. Which is abysmally stupid of them. Smart Gun technology is “iffy,” at best. And they have no right to dictate what is included in S&W products. (Captain’s Journal)

Are These People Insane?

In Charlottesville, Virginia, the police chief has previously called for the banning of all guns—in spite of the Constitutional Amendment that prohibits it. How do we get this kind of stupid people in positions of authority, so they can wish their stupid ideas on the rest of us? And this bimbo is not even elected! She’s an APPOINTED police chief who obviously had no business being in such a position. Now she’s demanding the removal of a police car” because it’s too scary.” It might frighten the crooks. Some people hate this particular car because it is the same model used in a well-known murder recently and they were “triggered” by it. And they can’t even get the name of the model right. This is a “Challenger,” not a “Charger.” People like this, with such stupid ideas, should be removed, immediately. Such opinions by a person in a position of authority are not “freedom of thought or speech,” and removing them from office because of them is legal and proper, before they can do some real damage—if they haven’t, already. (Law Enforcement Today)

Unworkable Gun Laws

Anti-gun laws don’t work. Surprise, surprise! New Jersey has some of the tightest anti-gun laws in the nation, but that didn’t stop the criminals who shot two civilians and a cop in Jersey City from getting the numerous guns they used in their mass shooting spree that was originally aimed at a Jewish synagogue. NJ officials blame imports from states with weaker anti-gun laws for the influx of ILLEGAL guns into New Jersey. But their so-called “lesser” gun laws don’t have any effect on guns bought ILLEGALLY in a back alley somewhere. Such guns are not covered by anti-gun laws, that only deal with those guns bought LEGALLY. Law-breakers don’t obey laws. That’s why they’re called law-breakers. So no amount of anti-gun laws are going to stop them from getting the guns they use, ILLEGALLY. And frankly, ALL guns come in from “out of state,” unless they are manufactured right there. Chicago uses the same excuse for the failure of THEIR anti-gun laws to “stop gun violence.” Neither state knows how to stop it, and they won’t even listen when we tell them about the ONLY solution to the problem, allowing the law-abiding to be armed, in self defense. The Founders realized it, which is why they put in the Second Amendment—which has been largely ignored by politicians, who should know better, but do NOT. (Mail News)

Anti-Gun Laws Fail

Again. I can’t count the number of times people who are not allowed to have guns by law, get a gun and shoot places up. This is ample proof that anti-gun laws just do not work, but anti-gun fools ignore that and keep making them, anyway. The Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Florida prohibited base employees and trainees from having personal weapons, making the Air Station a “gun-free ANTI-GUN LAWS FAIL: Again. I can’t count the number of times people who are not allowed to have guns by law, get a gun and shoot places up. That Saudi National who shot the place up was not allowed to have a gun, period. Not on the base, or anywhere else while in this country. He could not just go out to a gun store and buy a gun. So where and how did he get the gun he used to kill 3 people and wound 8 more? This guy violated at least two prohibitions to bring that gun onto the air Station and even more when he killed and wounded people. But the anti-gun fools ignore that and insist we make even more USELESS anti-gun laws for people like this to ignore. These people have to be dumb as rocks to do that, or they have to have an ulterior motive. In this case, the ulterior motive is to disarm all Americans, making them DEFENSELESS against the guns in the hands of those who ignore those laws, which will include people wearing badges. (Gun-Free Zone)

To Ban Self Defense

Anti-gun fools just can’t help themselves. They just have to keep making as many useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws as humanly possible, while law-abiding people die because they can’t obtain the means to defend themselves. And then they’re not even satisfied at that, they have to put “roadblocks” in the way of the COPS in their efforts to do the job the law-abiding can’t do without guns, and TRY to defend them. In California, they now made a law keeping the COPS and war veterans from being able to buy ammunition! Not directly, of course, it all has to do with sloppy entries into the database used to approve ammunition purchases. But that is sufficiently widespread to suggest those errors are purposeful, made by anti-gun fools who make those entries. All this proves is that they aren’t interested in “gun control,” they want to outlaw self defense entirely. They figure if they can’t stop us from getting guns because of the Second Amendment, they can make our guns useless by denying us the right to buy ammunition. They know their stupid laws do NOTHING to stop “gun crime,” but they don’t care. They’re “on a mission” to deny us the basic human right of self defense, by allowing law-breakers to get their guns illegally, while stopping us from getting them legally. (Law Enforcement Today)

Is the NRA Beaten?

Mike Bloomberg seems to think so. But then, he’s “dumb as a rock.” He actually thinks he has a “snowball’s chance in hell” to be elected president, on the Dumocrat ticket. He thinks he can eliminate all guns by making laws that only apply to LEGAL gun owners, while the lawbreakers just give him the finger and get their guns illegally. In his ads he talks about many things, including just 400,000 new jobs he says he was responsible for in in 12 years as New York Mayor—the last four being illegal. Like most politicians (mostly Dumocrats) he twists facts to suit himself. The NRA is far from being out of the fight to stop his unconstitutional efforts to disarm all Americans in the face of all the ILLEGAL guns there are out there in the hands of law breakers. Yes, they have some problems. Problems that will be solved, while continuing to stifle Bloomberg’s efforts to make all Americans defenseless. It’s easy, since his very goal is an impossible one. You CANNOT stop crime by getting rid of ONE TOOL criminals use to victimize people. Even if it was POSSIBLE to get rid of all guns. It is a pipe dream for him to even think he CAN. But then, common sense has never been part of his makeup. He may be able to “buy” the Dumocrat primary, but he won’t get past the “Trump juggernaut” that sent Hillary into retirement with her millions of dollars of ill-gotten money. She thought she had the presidency “bought” in 2016, but it didn’t happen. (CBS News)

"Sauce for the Goose"

Should be “sauce for the gander.” But that apparently doesn’t apply in the State of Virginia. They have there, many “sanctuary cities” that have pledged to violate the law and refuse to assist ICE in enforcing immigration law, and without comment. Which is a form of approval. But when it comes to their “sacred” anti-gun laws, it’s a little different. A few county sheriffs have decided to refuse to enforce their latest anti-gun law because it’s not only stupid and unenforceable, it’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL. So now they want to send in the National Guard to enforce their unconstitutional laws—which is yet another unconstitutional act—they want to put those sheriffs I jail for not going along with their stupidities. This is the kind of thing we get when Dumocrats get total political control, anywhere, as they have in Virginia. There, they control both houses of government and the office of the governor. It’s a lock They can pass anything they want and the governor will just not his head as he signs it into law. Then Virginians suffer as their constitutional rights are trampled. Something they swear President Trump is doing, but they actually ARE while he is NOT. (Washington Examiner)

Moving the Goalposts

The Dumocrats (and other anti-gun fools) know they can’t disarm America as long as the Second Amendment to the Constitution exists. So now they’re talking (again) about mounting a campaign to repeal the Second Amendment. I’d say, “Good luck with that,” if I wasn’t sure any effort to repeal such a basic right is doomed to failure, and should be. Why intelligent people would allow such a basic right to be taken from them is a mystery. But I’m sure there are people stupid enough to allow it, all of them Dumocrats. Fortunately, there aren’t enough to allow them to accomplish it. Another effort to move the goalposts is the drive to eliminate the Electoral College, that dependable method we have used for so long to elect presidents while keeping those liberal coastal states like New York, Connecticut, California, and a few other populous states from dictating who would be the next president, thereby disenfranchising the people in the part of the country they derisively call, “flyover country.” They think those people don’t matter, and SHOULDN’T matter, in their arrogance. (Just common sense)

Really Stupid Regulations

The military is not allowed to be armed on military bases. Even if they have a “carry permit.” They should NOT be defenseless when some fool who doesn’t believe in obeying laws comes onto their base and kills a few (or many) of them. This is not only deadly for those killed, but very embarrassing for those survivors, who are basically responsible for protecting us—but can’t even protect themselves because of ignorant rules and regulations. The very idea that the very presence of guns causes “gun crime” is stupid. And to refuse to allow the potential victims to be armed, and able to defend themselves is even more stupid. But the anti-gun fools have convinced way too many people that their way is the way to go, even though that way has PROVEN not to work, in any way, and has been responsible for many deaths. You can NOT defend yourself against an ILLEGALLY-armed criminal by throwing away your own guns! The anti-gun fools just cannot, or WILL not. Understand that, as they go about disarming as many honest people as possible, leaving the field open to the law-breakers who want to victimize us. They learned that again the other day in Pensacola, Florida, at a Navy base.(Just common sense)

Mexico Has Gun Control

Is it working? Not on yer tintype! Mexican drug cartels practically RULE in Mexico, and they shoot up the landscape, pretty much at will. All with illegal guns. They’re illegal because Mexican law makes it practically impossible to get a gun legally—unless you’ve got a lot of money to use in bribing some bureaucrat into issuing you a “gun permit.” But the cartels don’t bother with that. They just get their guns illegally, and “buy off” the bureaucrats and other politicians to “look the other way.” when that fails, they just come in and shoot the place up. They did that in the town of Villa Union, just about an hour’s drive south of Eagle Pass, Texas. They “Rolled in” like a victorious army. Like they “owned the joint,” which they do, mostly. The cops objected, and an hour-long gunfight ensued between the cartel “troops” and the cops, in which four cops were killed, as well as any number of cartel members. This in gun-controlled Mexico. Does gun control work? Not a bit, apparently. Everywhere it is in force, gun crime persists. Mexico and Chicago is proof of that. But do the anti-gun fools listen? Again, not a bit. The other day, nobody got killed by a gun in Chicago, and that was big news. That speaks volumes. (Steadfast Daily)

The Worst Law Ever!

It is the law requiring “gun-free zones” everywhere you look, but especially in schools, where innocent children will inevitably be, making them prime targets for the dummies who want to kill a few of them. There has not been a single mass shooting that did not occur INSIDE of a “gun-free zone.” So it’s safe to say that “gun-free zones” KILL. And not just children in schools. A recent “study” found what we already know, without wasting money on “studies.” Law-breakers don’t obey laws. So what the hell good do laws making it illegal to use a gun to do their other crimes DO? Anybody who thinks a “gun-free zone” does anything to stop, or even slow down “gun crime” is a FOOL. Unfortunately, there are a lot of fools out there making laws and regulations for the rest of us to follow to our deaths. WalMart parking lots and other property are gun-free zones, while stories of thugs shooting people in them are many. Other “big box stores” have followed their lead, making their property a “target rich” territory for law-breakers, since they can be pretty sure the law-abiding people there will not be armed, and thus will be defenseless against them, and their illegal guns. (NBC News)

Gun Control Futility

It’s a futile game the anti-gun fools are playing. They have to know, first of all, that the Constitution is against them ever being able to disarm all American citizens—so they have to find a way around it. Even so, every time anybody fires a gun “in anger,” even if it was a case of self defense or police action, they attribute it to “gun crime,” to inflate their numbers. They seem to figure each and every crime committed with a gun is done with a gun that was bought legally, while the purchaser stood for a background check—which is totally wrong—criminals almost always get their guns illegally, either by buying them out of the trunk of the car of another criminal in a back alley somewhere or stealing them—and don’t bother standing for a background check. Therefore, none of their highly touted anti-gun laws touch them unless they’re caught with the illegal gun in their possession. And then, half the time, the “authorities” waive the guns charges to get convictions in other crimes. And so it goes. With all their laws, law breakers still do their dirty deeds. This week, in Mexico, they shot up a church, and the cops were outgunned. In New Orleans, TWO shootings happened at the same time in different parts of the city, leaving two dead, and another ten injured. Meanwhile, in gun-controlled London, there was a KNIFE attack, leaving two more dead. In the Netherlands, another knife attack. The more tight anti-gun laws, the more or this kind of attacks continue. Futile, is the word for it. But they continue on, in their futile quest to disarm all America, making them defenseless against the law breakers. (Just common sense)

"Blame the Straw Man"

If you can’t do your job, just blame somebody else who had nothing to do with your failure for that failure. Which is what Houston’s top cop is doing after a KNOWN CRIMINAL who cannot legally get a gun under any circumstances kills a cop when he blames the NRA for it, rather than lousy policing, and useless anti-gun laws. What kind of twisted logic is responsible for that, I cannot fathom. The NRA simply stands up for the Constitutional right of law abiding citizens to be armed, to be able to defend themselves against such criminals, not for the right of such criminals to be armed when they do their dirty work. How that translates into “blame” for a KNOWN CRIMINAL committing murder with an ILLEGAL gun is beyond me. Of course, incompetent people need “straw men” to blame for their failures. Otherwise, intelligent people will “get wise” to their incompetence. This “top cop” needs to be replaced immediately, with someone who actually knows how to do the job, and not make excuses for failure. Unfortunately, there are far too many such incompetents “enforcing” our laws, and even MAKING them. They all need to be replaced with competent people. (Breitbart)

"Workplace Marshals"

It sounds like a bad idea, but it’s not. When I first read about it, I thought these “marshals” were like the old Soviet Union “commissars.” Put in place to watch the workers and report any action that was anti-government. But it’s not. It’s the best idea they can come up with to combat “gun crime” in government buildings, like arming teachers in schools. It gives them a “first line of defense” against mass killers come to kill their employees. Those “marshals” are simply regular employees who are legal “carriers,” and are allowed to bring their guns to work. A potential mass shooter would not know who they are, and thus could not “eliminate them” first, as they can do with UNIFORMED school “resource officers.” They would be able to “shoot you a lot,” as the writer of the item linked below wrote. Which would make it a lot less viable to come in and shoot people because you could get shot yourself, before you could get very far in shooting people. This is an idea I have been talking about for a long time, and they’re going to do it in Florida. Seems like Florida is way ahead on common sense these days. In Virginia, their response to a mass shooting was to make sure people were disarmed, making it easier for the next mass shooter. (Bearing Arms)

It Did Not Happen

As usual, the fanciful predictions of the anti-gun fools have not come true, as usual. When seven states made it legal for legal carriers to carry their guns onto school grounds, they predicted an “uptick” in gun violence on campus. Predictably, it didn’t happen. In many cases, “gun violence” on campus WENT DOWN because people were able to defend themselves against the ILLICIT guns that get brought onto campus, anyway, by people who couldn’t give less of a sh-t about their anti-gun laws, and just wanted to victimize somebody. And the LACK of legal guns in the hands of people on campus just made it easier for them to do so. The fact is, and this is something the anti-gun fools will never understand, is that responsible people don’t reach for their guns every time somebody displeases them. Allowing the law-abiding to be armed, as guaranteed in the Constitution is the only real deterrent to the illegal guns in the hands of the lawless, but they will not even entertain the idea. They have to know their laws do not work as they say they will, but they make more and more of them anyway, whenever some fool shoots up a school or other place with an ILLEGAL gun. They don’t recognize the difference between the use of legal and illegal guns, lumping them all together to inflate their numbers. (The College Fix)

It's Never Enough

Drip, drip, drip. Until they attain total gun control. Then the law breakers will take over because they will be the only ones with guns. Except for the cops, of course, but they’re minutes away, and some of them are law breakers.. Minutes during which an illegal gun holder can kill many people. Yes, background checks canhelp them find the law breakers, IF (and that’s a BIG if) the law breaker bought his gun legally and stood for one. Which almost all law breakers do not do. They’re law breakers, affter all. They don’t obey ANY laws, much less piddling little laws that say they can’t be armed when doing their dirty work. Places like Chicago have all the “anti-gun laws” already. And they have extremely high “gun crime” rates to go along with it. Those laws don’t work to do what they SAY they are supposed to do. But they WILL eventually do what the crooked politicians want them to do, and that is causing those self-same politicians to face fewer guns when they come to take your property. Every time a new law (are there any?) goes into effect, they say, “It’s a good start,” which means tomorrow they’ll want to pass yet another one, and so on the day after, and the day after… until the only people who have guns will be the cops and the law breakers. And some of the cops will also be law breakers. And they still won’t be satisfied. (Truth About Guns)

Gun Control Is Dangerous

Gun control laws are dangerous. Every one of them has killed someone. Some may laugh at that, but it’s true. Many times when someone tries to buy a gun legally there is an important time element there. He or she has been threatened by someone, and that threat is real. The threatener may already have a gun, legally or illegally, so waiting periods, background checks, and anything else that delays him/her getting a gun can be responsible for their death, if the threatener acts before he/she can get a gun to use in self defense. I remember a case in Denver, Colorado, where a woman was threatened by an ex boyfriend, and tried to get a gun legally. She was forced to endure a waiting period before she could get that gun. So she went out and got one illegally, which was a good thing, because her threatener tried to kill her, and she killed him, instead. She was not charged with murder because it was a clear case of self defense. But she was liable for charges for having an illegal gun, and probably spent some jail time. But she was still alive, and that’s a plus. Mandated waiting periods, and the waits for approval of a gun purchase while a background check is made CAN get you killed, that’s a fact. Not just an opinion. It has happened. (Truth About Guns)

Another Lie Disproved

Anti-gun fools are fond of telling us there is no way the Founders could have envisioned guns that could fire more than one shot at a time. They try to use that to discredit the Second Amendment, Well, they did know. One inventor told them about his new invention that could fire 8 balls, one after the other. So the Founders ordered a bunch of them to “test” against their current enemies. Of course the whole idea that they couldn’t have envisioned multi-round firing weapons is beside the point, since the Second Amendment did not mention ANY sort of a gun. It merely guaranteed us the inalienable RIGHT to “bear arms.” No kind of “arms” were mentioned. This is s prime example of how the anti-gun fools twist things to suit themselves in trying to take away this guaranteed RIGHT. They know they can’t just BAN guns, so now they’re trying all the ways they can to make the guns we have useless. One way is making bullets (which they say aren’t covered by the Second Amendment) hard, or impossible to find, making guns just blocks of metal, useless for anything. Of course, the whole idea of targeting guns is silly and stupid. But when this is pointed out, they ignore it, and go right on pushing their stupid, unenforceable laws. They’re really stupid that way. (Truth About Guns)

Drip, Drip, Drip

Remember the old story about “How To Boil A Frog,” where you put him in cold water, and bring it to a boil with him in it. He will never notice until he is boiled to death. That’s the same way corrupt politicians and anti-gun fools are slowly taking away our right to self defense, one small right at a time, until one day we wake up to realize that self defense is now ILLEGAL. If we do ANYTHING to defend ourselves from predators, we can go to prison with the criminals. One such effort in Virginia (a well-known anti-gun state) is a new law they’re considering to make just teaching “gun safety” a crime, by REDEFINING it as “felony paramilitary training,” and thus grounds for imprisonment. This is how despots work. Redefine the law to suit themselves, and thus “get around” the Constitutional prohibition against making ANY law that “infringes” upon our constitutional RIGHT to “bear arms.” Guns are no good to you if you don’t know how to use them. They’re “regulating” ammunition sales, too, knowing that a gun is USELESS without bullets, and bullets are not protected by the Constitution. That’s their contention, anyway. But logical human beings disagree, as banning ammunition IS an “infringement” on our gun rights, since it makes guns into useless lumps of metal. (Law Enforcement Daily)
