Committing National Suicide

I can’t believe the incredible STUPIDITY of the people (including some politicians) that support defunding or disbanding the police! The police are the first and last barrier we have against the takeover of the country by criminals and malcontents. Yet the politicians (mostly Dumbocrats) who favor “getting rid of the cops” just can’t see that. They’re totally incompetent and irresponsible. Or they’re part of the problem and want to disband the police so THEY can join the other criminals in victimizing us. They will get millions of people killed, by removing the best line of defense we have, since those selfsame politicians have worked HARD to disarm us, making us even more vulnerable to the outrages of those law breakers. I’m sure they also do not realize that they, themselves, will also be vulnerable to attack by those ILLEGALLY-armed law breakers. Of course, they can afford to hire their own armed security. they’ve got our money, after all. We can’t afford our own armed security because they’ve taken too much of our money. If these fools ever do succeed in “getting rid of the cops,” I don’t want to live in the world they will have created, and I suspect I won’t have to, because some out-of-control thug will probably kill me in the absence of any deterrent to his crimes. (Just common sense)

It's Another Coup

Just like in a “banana republic,” we’ve had at least three attempted coups in this country, all disguised as legal events. Two failed, and the most recent will fail, too. They are disguised as “legal actions” and a “dog and pony show” was had to make it look good. I don’t know if the first one had any basis in fact, but the second one definitely did. Bill Clinton demonstrably LIED to Congress. He was fined many bucks and lost his law license for five years—which didn’t mean anything to him because he hasn’t practiced law for years and doesn’t plan on it in the future. If I kept making the kind of money they pay former presidents, I wouldn’t worry about trying to make any, myself. Besides: he’s got those millions gullible Dumbocrats sent his phony “foundation” until they figured out neither he, nor his wife, could ever do anything for them and the money stopped coming in. Nancy Peelosi has promised many more impeachment attempts and the only way to stop her is to send her back to San Francisco with her tail between her legs, along with the rest of the stupid Dumbocrat House members so they cannot do it again and again with YOUR money. (Just common sense)

Bernie the Nominee?

I shudder to remember when he was a serious candidate for president. I remember a time when being a communist or a socialist was “the kiss of death” for a politician, and rightly so because socialism, and communism, are different forms of collectivism, which is a system BASED on the theft of the fruits of the production of new wealth by a producer, for the benefit of the NON-producer. In other words, stealing the property of those who EARNED it and giving it to those who did NOT. Their very motto reveals this: “FROM each according to his ABILITY, and TO each according to his NEED.” Making need a DEMAND upon the EARNINGS of those capable and willing to earn their own way by those unwilling to do so. That’s STEALING in any man’s language, and those who propose it should never be allowed to run for office, much less the presidency, in a free country. Bernie Sanders “bad mouths” rich people by being rich, himself.

He hates the free market while benefiting from it. He is a hypocrite. The only reason I can come up with to see that this abomination is no longer a “kiss of death” for a politician is that liberals in our education system have been systematically brainwashing their students for years to believe collectivism is the way to go, even though many countries whose government is based on collectivism have failed, big time, while America has prospered beyond anybody’s wildest dreams. The free market is why millions of people want to come here and take part in the economy it has produced—while people just emerging from their teenage years, who haven’t been on this Earth long enough to know anything, LOVE collectivism. They will learn better the longer they live, but they don’t know now—and by the time they learn, we may be the next Soviet Union. (American Thinker)

Not For A Minute

Do I believe the polls that are coming out all the time saying “Sleepy Joe” Biden is leading Trump in so many polls, while hiding in his basement. Meanwhile, President Trump is routinely filling large stadiums with thousands of eager supporters, in spite of the “doom and gloom” warnings from Dumbocrats about attendees getting the virus. I think the old saw about Dumbocrats polling other Dumbocrats in the DNC Lobby is a lot more true than anybody imagined. They poll in Dumbocrat strongholds, among Dumbocrats, who can be counted on to lie about whatever the DNC tells them to lie about. They ask questions that are guaranteed to elicit answers they want to hear, true, or not. When I see a photo (not Photoshopped) of Biden standing at a lonely lectern, giving his standard speech to an almost completely empty room that held only about 20 people, who didn’t even notice when he entered the room, I find it hard to believe he can ever garner enough votes to win out against the “Trump Train.” (Just common sense)

Another Church Shooting

It’s not unique. It happens all then time, and nobody (except the victims) is surprised. One day, there were THREE church attacks. Two on Jews, one on Christians (so far). The one in Texas was stopped by an armed security guard before he could kill any more people. Which again proves my thesis that the BEST defense is an armed resistance. There is no telling how many more people would have died in Fort Worth if that security guard had not been there—and been armed. In New York City, the weapon was a knife, which will not dissuade anti-gun fools from clamoring for more and tighter gun laws, while KNOWING they do NOTHING to stop such killings. New York authorities talk a big game as they “condemn” such things. Meanwhile, their laws tend to make things worse because they “coddle” the criminals who do such things. In one case where a Hasidick Jew was beaten almost to death, the perp was released the same day. That’s just wrong. (NBCDFW)

Continuous Elections

It may seem like we have one permanent election cycle. Is that true? YES! Back in the sixties, Nixon “announced” for the first time his wish to run for the presidency at about this far in advance of the election—about a year out. Today, the Dumbocrats have been “running” for almost TWO YEARS and having many, many “debates” where Dumbocrats fight with each other and the news media (including Fox) obsess over them, as well as the “polling numbers” until the voters become so tired of it, many of them simply begin to ignore it, and that causes a noticeable drop in the number of voters. This began before people had “recovered” from an earlier election cycle. This year they’ve given the media something else to obsess over: the impeachment of President Trump, which is doomed to failure because they didn’t have a case, but they went ahead, anyway. The voters in this country are getting so much “election coverage” they’re becoming bored with it, and this might work to the advantage of the Dumbocrats—which will NOT get them elected in 2020. And I am saddened by the fact that the candidates are ALL swindling donors out of millions of dollars, each. Even the last place candidate has raised millions from gullible donors. The idea of spending millions of dollars to gain a job paying only $200,000.00 a year is ludicrous. But gaining the presidency gives them POWER, and that is what most politicians are after. Some are after the money such a position can give them from corruprion. The stories of politicians who are just about broke when gaining election who later “retire” as millionaires are rife. And nobody asks how they got so much money. Worse yet, they keep on paying them as long as they live. (American Thinker)

"Chilling" the Cops

Because an out-of-control cop murdered George Floyd by kneeling on his neck for almost nine minutes (a completely wrong method of controlling a suspect who was not fighting). They now want to punish ALL COPS for the damned fool actions of one cop and a few “newbies” he was “training.” In doing so, they are condemning many people, maybe even including themselves, to death at the hands of the illegally armed criminals and other kinds of law breakers because the cops will no longer be there to keep tings under control. The real fact is that 99% of cops are “good people” who are only doing a thankless job, and doing it well. Then there are the kind of cops that killed George Floyd, which we could eliminate if the politicians would just do their jobs competently. Disbanding the cops is “throwing out the baby with the bath water.” It is an overreaction, and will not only NOT solve any problems, it will CREATE some deadly ones. And even if they don’t disband the cops, if the public second guesses every time a cop has to make that split second decision to shoot or not to shoot in a stressful situation, it will make some cops hesitate too long and they will get killed. (Just common sense)

Bloomberg's Outrageous Claims

He said, since crime rate went down while he was mayor, he should be credited with saving 92,000 lives. Poppycock! Numbers can be made to say anything you want them to say, but there are not any numbers available as to how many people DIED because of the stupid anti-gun laws in New York. They don’t keep those numbers so they don’t have to report them. It amazes me how politicians like him can “cherry-pick numbers” to prove something that didn’t happen at all. And they BELIEVE their numbers! Bloomberg MUST be aware that his silly gun laws DO NOTHING to stop, or reduce gun violence; that all they do is give ILLEGALLY armed criminals and crazies an unlimited supply of unarmed victims, but you’ll never be able to pound such facts into the heads of fool people like him. (Politicker)

Well, Here It Comes

The “October Surprise. The “last minute” surprise accusation they’ve been saving to use if they lost on the impeachment. The Dumocrats couldn’t prove their impeachment, so here’s the last minute unprovable accusation for the Dumocrats to treat as if the accusation, without any kind of proof, is as as good as gold. Trump is guilty in their minds. They will now tout this as “proof” that Trump is a rapist. And the reason this woman never said anything until she might be able to get a sitting president impeached (again) is a question not asked. It’s the same thing as the “second and third” rape allegation against that Supreme Court nominee they brought up at the last minute in their attempts (plural) to derail the nominee’s affirmation. An attempt that failed because of the lack of any kind of proof. The accuser couldn’t even say for sure it was him. It was only an accusation, based on a hazy drunken memory of SOMEBODY raping her at a “frat party” she attended, many years ago.

Of course, the reason, as in this case, why she waited until she could derail this Supreme Court nominee’s approval was not asked. Nancy Peelosi infamously said, “Proof is not necessary. The importance of the accusation is what must be considered.” Which is completely contrary to the way we do things in this country. Even a murderer is given more protection against unfounded accusations than is this president. In this case, she can’t even remember when it happened. But of course she’s absolutely sure Trump is the man and is insisting on getting his DNA (without a warrant) so she can prove it. Never mind the accused is not required to prove his innocence, the accuser is required to prove his guilt—in the real world. The whole process in sexual misconduct accusations is unfair BECAUSE it requires no proof to ruin a man with an unproven accusation. (Headline Health)

How Does Socialism Survive?

It has failed everywhere it has been tried, and a number of socialist “experiments” still hanging on will soon fail. Socialism failed in the USSR after 75 years of misery for its citizens. It is in its “death throes” in Venezuela right now, with riots to find anything they can use, including toilet paper—of which there isn’t much. They have to use leaves off of trees. In a socialist state that is a little newer, in Cuba, socialism is “winding down” after about the 50 years it took them to deplete what was a busy, prosperous nation’s reserves. Today, the average age of all cars not in the possession of the government is the fifties, held together with chewing gum and duct tape. It will soon fail, along with the other socialist nations. But people are still selling socialism, based on the idea that some can live at the expense of others, and that the government won’t take too much out of the hides of those still working and earning for themselves. There are apparently still enough lazy people out there to make selling socialism profitable—for those selling it, not for the people. But it takes a while for them to notice what they’re losing, so socialism works—for a while, before it collapses and those selling it scamper off to sell it somewhere else, taking their profits with them, leaving misery and death in their wake. I’m seeing socialism rising, even in this country, where the free market was the vehicle for its prosperity, and that makes me glad I won’t be around much longer to have to live under it. (Just common sense)

Background Check No Effect

One of the most popular measures loved by anti-gun fools is the background check. And it is the LEAST effective. In California, where background checks are “the norm” when buying a gun, they had NO EFFECT on the number of gun deaths, according to a recent study. And researchers are “puzzled” at why. Can these people be that stupid? I’m just an old man at his computer and I can easily figure out why. Law-breakers do not OBEY laws, and do not stand for a background check when they get their guns illegally. And it is the law-breakers who are the problem, not the law-abiding, who DO stand for background checks when they buy their guns LEGALLY. There’s no real reason for such laws, except to give the politicians something to brag about at today’s cocktail party. Of course, they have a ready excuse for their “surprising findings.” “Incomplete data and flawed criminal record reporting” are responsible, of course. Naturally they discount the whole idea that criminals don’t obey laws. And, of course, this study got little media notice because it did not fit their preconceived notions. (FEE)

It Doesn't Matter

The news media has a dilemma: which thing do they tout? The Dumocrat primaries, or Covid 19? It’s funny to see them talking about the Dumocrat rivalries as if they were important, while on a Covid 19 set. The Dumocrat race for the nomination is of little importance, since there isn’t a single Dumocrat candidate who can beat President Trump. So it just doesn’t matter which Dumocrat presents himself (or herself) to be soundly beaten by the “Trump Juggernaut.” Each and every one of them who are considered to be more important than the others are promoting policies that are so outlandish and extreme that none of them will ever gain enough support to even get close to the number of votes Trump will get. This time, there will not be a Dumbocrat “wining the popular vote while losing in the Electoral College.” The voters know Donald Trump this go-around, and he will win in a landslide, as Ronald Reagan did in his re-election. In the 2016 election they did not yet know him, only HOPED he would do what he promised, and “drain the swamp.” Since he has been making progress I doing just that while causing an economy that has broken many records, this time they will vote for him, KNOWING he is the man they want, and not the “freebies” the Dumbocrats have promised, using money they have STOLEN from the EARNERS of this country. (Just common sense)

Irresponsible Idea

That’s just one word that is applicable to those who want to dissolve the police departments in the country. Other words are, stupid, idiotic, short-sighted. Think about a rich country that had a strong army to defend itself with, that dissolves that army and disarms it. What do you think will happen when another country that wants what they have discover they are now completely defenseless? They will attack it and take it over. Trash it, and kill its people with no opposition. We’re looking at a similar situation with the cops. They are the only real defense we have against those who want to “take us over,” steal our property and money, and lord it over us. To defund or disband the cops is folly because it is an engraved invitation to the bad guys to come after us because there will be nobody to oppose them, since the government has taken away a lot of our guns and made us wonder what would happen if we used then guns we have to defend ourselves. Would they charge us with a crime for defending ourselves? The basic thing is that you do NOT get rid of your main defenses when threatened by the bad guys. That is stupidity, and therein lies DEATH. (Just common sense)

Ignoring Reality

It really amazes me how many stupid people there are out there, and how many of them have the money to push lawmakers (who don’t require much pushing) into making laws that are USELESS for reducing gun violence, but actually cost many people their lives through not being able to defend themselves against ILLEGALLY armed criminals and crazies. They’re aware of this, but they keep pushing these INSANE gun laws that keep getting passed by ignorant legislators. You don’t defend yourself by DISARMING yourself. And keeping honest people (who obey laws) disarmed in the face of the ease with which criminals (who don’t obey laws) get their guns is criminal in itself, and CONTRIBUTES to gun violence. This is REALITY. But these fools ignore it. Gun control, the way it is now known, KILLS more people than do ILLEGAL guns in the hands of criminals, by itself. I can’t believe there are so many STUPID people out there who ignore this REALITY. (High Plains Leader and Times)

"Most Mass Slayings"

California, with its very tight anti-gun laws, is the state which has had the MOST mass killings in the country in 2019. That should tell the anti-gun fools something, but it won’t. They look at studies like that which came out from Johns Hopkins that show NO EFFECT on gun crime for their highly touted background check laws and ignore the truth, making excuses for the stats that don’t include the reality that background checks, like all their other anti-gun laws, just don’t work. The biggest reason gun crime is so rampant IS their anti-gun laws, which only serve to give law-breakers an easier life because it keeps their intended targets defenseless against their ILLEGAL guns. Previously, I have been confounded by their complete ignorance of the fact than NONE of their laws work as intended. Then I look at the real result of their laws—defenseless law-abiding people who do obey them, and I see that’s what they really want. A defenseless population they can push around at will. If that is the intended result, they’re working perfectly. (Flag and Cross)

Taking Stupid Pills

Apparently, the latest drug of choice is the “stupid pill.” Many people seem to be taking them, and often they are politicians who can enact some stupid things and make them stick. Like de-funding or disbanding the cops. That’s “cutting of your nose to spite your face.” The cops are there to protect them, and form a barrier to the criminals and other law breakers who want to victimize the law abiding. They SAY they’re doing that to “make us safe.” But you don’t make yourself defenseless to make yourself safer. Now they’re talking about getting rid of school resource officers so there will then be NOBODY left to defend your children when a fool comes in with his illegal gun and kills a few. All over the country there are measures taken to REMOVE all means of self defense, for everybody. People are doing it to themselves. Taking guns away from the law abiding is just part of the move to make us all defenseless against the bad guys. And the bad guys are loving it, because it just makes it easier for them to victimize us without worrying about anybody having the means for defense against them. One important question: Who do you call when crooks come when there are no cops? Getting rid of all cops because of one or two bad apples is insanity. (Just common sense)

Did You Know?

Chicago, New Orleans, Detroit, and Washington, DC, the four cities with the toughest gun laws in the nation, put us THIRD in the WORLD in murders. Without those cities added, we’re 4th from the bottom of the list. That’s not conjecture or opinion, that’s FACT. But a fact IGNORED by those incompetent politicians who make laws that do nothing but present ILLEGALLY armed criminals with more unarmed citizens than they can rob or murder. These are hard facts. You’d think the people why SAY they want to “curb gun violence” would “tumble” to that and aim their efforts elsewhere than on the guns themselves. Guns, without evil hands holding them, can do NOTHING. They need to make laws to “Curb” the PEOPLE who USE those guns for evil purposes by giving them longer sentences for using guns to commit crimes. Don’t ban the use of guns for honest people who OBEY laws by MAKING laws to disarm them. But these incompetent politicians ignore reality and continue to make more and more USELESS laws that kill innocent people by disarming them. What will it take to make these incompetent politicians see reason? Nothing, I suppose, because reason is not part of their lexicon. (Just common sense)

Mass Stupidity

That’s the only way I can describe those who think thy can eliminate guns entirely from the world, and that to do so will eliminate violent crime. The real evidence shows absolutely that anti-gun laws have never worked to prevent “gun crime” and, instead, INCREASE it by disarming the law-abiding, making them defenseless against those who use ILLEGAL guns to victimize them. But they ignore that and continue to insist on making even more of the useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws, while people die because of them. And it’s not just those I call “anti-gun fools.” It includes politicians who buy their silly notions and make those laws. It is the news media that promotes “gun control” that controls nothing. And nothing ever dents their “stone brains” with logic. They have bought this silliness as if it were real, and they just can’t see anything that denies it. They blame the guns, period. Never mind finding out why so many people want to victimize people, with, or without guns. It just does not get through to their little brains. We keep showing them the evidence and they keep ignoring it, while continuing to make their stupid laws that just get more people killed. Everything I’ve written above, I’ve written before, but it’s as if I’ve never written a word, to them. (Just common sense)

Sorry Folks

No updates today. didn’t get a chance to get any work done since I spent most of the day in the ER because of acute heart failure. I AM an “old fart,” you know. Back to work tomorrow (I hope).

The People Know

Gun control is NOT the answer to defending yourself against the fools who riot and declare they are “coming to the burbs to take what’s ours.” You can’t depend upon the cops. They are overwhelmed as it is, and even so, they can’t be everywhere at once with their guns. So the only real answer is a gun in the hand of the intended victim. The people know that, and that’s the reason they are flocking to the gun stores to build up their arsenal so they can properly resist those fools when they come for what THINK is theirs, but which is NOT. The anti-gun fools think a gun in a man’s hand will automatically make him a crazy shooter, which it will not. Their entire goal is to get rid of guns, period. And that’s never going to happen. They will never get rid of the millions of ILLEGAL guns already out there in the hands of the law breakers. That way, they can reduce “gun crime,” one criminal at a time, by killing the criminal when he comes for their property. If ANY of the laws the anti-gun fools have caused to be passed did ANYTHING to limit gun crime, I’d be right there with them, But they don’t, and instead INCREASE it by disarming the intended victims. (Gary Varvel)

Actions of Fools

2013 was a year of fool actions, to be sure. But will 2020 be any better? Not with the anti-gun fools being still in office. The problem is not the very EXISTENCE of guns; it is that people with bad intentions GET guns. Lawmakers THINK making laws against criminals having guns (which, unfortunately, includes good people having guns for self-defense) will stop the crooks from seeking out illicit gun dealers who sell their guns out of the trunk of their cars in back alleys. They will NOT. But that never deters these fools from making their useless laws that do nothing but give ILLEGALLY-armed criminals a steady stream of unarmed VICTIMS; which makes crime rates rise, and, more importantly, makes the number of gun deaths also rise. Nobody seems to be able to get through to these ignoramuses. They’re “tone deaf” to logic. Some even deny the very EXISTENCE of logic. Maybe some day these fools will “wise up.” I hope it happens before some criminal shoots them with an ILLEGAL gun. (Just common sense).

Handcuffing the Police

Are we going to second-guess them every time a cop is forced to use his gun in self defense for himself or for others? We’re going to make cops afraid to use their guns, even when their lives are threatened, and that’s going to cost cop lives, and incidentally, the lives of those they are supposed to be protecting. There’s a move afoot to disarm the cops, and what we’re doing today accomplishes that, by making them afraid to use their guns for fear of being fired, and worse, imprisoned themselves, together with the very people they have put there. The killing of George Floyd was NOT “righteous.” He was NOT fighting. He was already “under control,” but then had THREE cops put him down and kneel upon him, one with his knee on his neck, killing him. In Atlanta it is not quite so clear. This subject was actively fighting, and getting the better of several cops. He had stolen one of their stun guns and was using it on one of the cops. That stun gun could be a deadly weapon in the right circumstances. And then there’s the fact that he could have taken that cop’s gun while he was “out of it” from the stun gun and killed one of the other cops. The knee-jerk action of the mayor in firing that cop within hours was an overreaction. If she files charges against the cop that will be a tragedy. (CNN)

Making Anti-Gun Bigots Angry

It’s easy to do. Just try and argue LOGICALLY against their pet ideas like putting locks on guns in locked gun safes in the house so when an ILLEGALLY-armed criminal comes calling you’ll never be able to get your gun into action quickly enough to keep him from shooting you with his ILLEGAL gun. Of course, his gun is not subject to such STUPID laws because he doesn’t OBEY laws. Of course, that makes your gun USELESS, which is their goal, anyway. Or their propensity for “registering” all guns so the government will know where they are, and who owns them when they get ready to come calling and confiscate (steal) them. They get angry because they know they can’t ANSWER your logic. So they just walk away in a huff after calling you nasty, vile names. Names that would have gotten them shot 100 years ago (which was a GOOD thing). Fools like that ALWAYS get angry when people attempt to confront them with logic. (Just common sense)

It's A Damned Lie!

Every time you see a criminal on TV in one of the “cop shows,” he’s shooting at the cops with a full-auto Machine gun. Which paints a very different picture of what happens in reality. The instance of crooks using machine guns is only in the imaginations of the writers and “prop masters” of those shows. Most criminals can’t even afford a machine gun, much less use it properly. The only way they even get one is to steal it—which is not inhibited in the least by anti-gun laws. They’re shown spraying bullets in all directions while those “intrepid cops” patiently wait until they have to change clips, then kill him with one shot. Yeah, right. Fanciful thinking. The fact is, most criminals are lucky to have a “Saturday Night Special” which today is a 9mm Glock, or something like it. It’s very rare when they have a gun anything like a machine gun. The idea of a criminal walking around with a machine gun under his coat is ludicrous, but the TV writers don’t care. Gunmen spraying bullets everywhere is very exciting, and it builds viewership. So they continue to write their scripts that way, and nobody can stop them. It IS “fiction,” after all. But it does present a very twisted picture of what real cops are up against. And politicians like “Horse-Face” John Kerry talking about “knowing all about AR-16s because I hunt” after sponsoring useless anti-gun legislation doesn’t help any.

Abolishing the Police

What an abysmally stupid idea this is! Only total stupid politicians would go along with this stupid idea. You don’t protect yourself by getting rid of the very people and things that defend you. The same is true of one of the best defensive tools, a gun. Getting rid of the cops on one bad idea, but getting rid of guns just compounds the error. Guns are like fire. They can help you or hurt you, depending on how they are used. But if you eliminate them, they can neither help NOR hurt you. Getting rid of the cops and getting rid of the guns are both getting rid of your ability to defend yourself, and that is the main goal of those who want to get rid of both. To leave you completely defenseless against those who do not get rid of their guns so they can more easily victimize you at will, without worrying about your ability to defend yourself. Those who push such ideas are those who will be the ones coming at you to victimize you, one way or another, later. And I include politicians in that. In any case, getting rid of then cops is one of the stupidest ideas to come down the pike. The cops are the first and last line of defense for you. Fear of the cops is the only thing that limits the criminals in what they think they can do to you. It’s what keeps them “at bay.” And punishes them when they come to victimize you. (Just common sense)

These People Are Stupid!

Recently a deranged individual went into a US military base featuring UNARMED military personnel and killed a few, before some ARMED men from OUTSIDE the base came in and dealt with him. The MINUTES between the time that fool started killing innocent military personnel and the arrival of the armed men who dealt with him meant DEATH for a number of them. So what happens? They reinforce the UNARMED situation on other military bases, making them DEFENSELESS against such fools. They immediately told other military personnel they didn’t care if they got murdered. These are people who are RESPONSIBLE users of guns. They are TRAINED to be. So what earthly reason do you BAN the carrying of firearms by base personnel when you KNOW that makes them prime targets for those deranged people who want to kill a few of them for whatever deranged reason they have in mind? The action by the “powers that be” at Offut Air Base is just the OPPOSITE of that which should be taken. Base personnel should not only be ALLOWED to be armed, but REQUIRED to be armed, with weapons supplied by the military. Security should be STRENGTHENED, not weakened. What fools there are running things there! (KETV)

Twisting the Facts

That’s how people promote ideas that are stupid. Just lie about them. That’s what Bloomberg was doing when he claimed that 2,900 CHILDREN die by gun violence every year. Of course, his “definition” of child includes young adults up to 19 years of age. Most of which are gang members and are shooting back, adding to the total. His figures also include suicides as well as homicides. What he is doing shows plainly that he KNOWS he is lying about “gun control,” and doesn’t care. He paints himself as a “brave advocate of public safety who is not afraid of the gun lobby.” As if the gun lobby is going to actually physically attack him. As with most anti-gun fools, he wants us to think that, just because they have guns, they will use them on people like him, so his opposition to the “gun lobby” is a “dangerous position.” This is a typical scam used by anti-gun fools to prop up their numbers: quote a fanciful number inflated by misleading the figures, and tout it to the skies. Even the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) uses figures that include “children” up to 17, many of which are shooting each other. Even so, that brings the number of “children’s deaths by gunfire” down 73%. With only 2 years’ difference in the inflated numbers. (Reason)

Disgusting Editorial Cartoon

Many editorial cartoonists are genius in the way they portray the news. Others disgust me. This one, by Gary Markstein, is one of the worst I’ve ever seen. In it, he shows a guy listing the names of every thug and criminal ever accosted by the cops on a wall, in 3” letters to fill up the wall faster. The list includes everybody ever accosted by the police for any reason, claiming police abuse of power. In those, he includes black men shot and killed by the cops for any reason. Good shoots, bad shoots, self defense shoots, where the cops are dodging bullets sent their way by the bad guys. Also included are instances of “suicide by cop.” The obvious intent of this carton is to “fan the flames” and make things look worse than they really are. And it does a good job of it. The latest shooting in Atlanta, GA, is billed as “being because he was sleeping in a Wendy’s drive-up line, asking if that should get him a death sentence, which is a serious twist of the facts. He got killed because he was fighting the cops, taking their weapons and using them on them. He could have “Tased” one of the cops with his own stun gun, taken his gun, and shot a cop with it. He was in the act of shooting a cop with that stun gun when shot. They’re saying he only resisted because he was afraid of being handcuffed, remembering that George Floyd was handcuffed when murdered by a cop, which is only a guess. I’d like to see a similar cartoon listing the names of all the cops killed by thugs, both from hiding, and while resisting arrest. The names probably wouldn’t fit on just one wall. (Gary Markstein)

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)

The Party of Fools

That’s the Dumocrat Party. Oh, not necessarily all those who count themselves as Dumocrats and vote that way. Most of them are just not paying attention, and vote the way they’re told. And the Dumocrats are ready and willing to tell them how to vote. First of all, the Dumocrats are socialists, which, in itself, is stupid. Anybody who really LOOKS at socialism wants no part of it, unless they’re promoting it to gain power over others. It’s a system BASED on the theft of the fruits of production of new wealth from the producers, for the benefit of those who, for whatever reason, do NOT produce, but only consume. And then there are the silly ideas they promote, such as that there are more than 2 sexes. They insist on it in the face of biological proof that it would be impossible.

They say sex is “assigned” at birth, which is false. It is DISCOVERED at birth by observing which of TWO sex organs the baby has. Nothing else can “assign” a sex, no matter how much they protest. They claim, transsexualism (where a man dresses like a woman and pretends to be a woman, or likewise a woman dresses like a man and pretends to be a man), is a different sex, but it is NOT. It is a mental aberration. They claim bigotry if men pretending to be women aren’t allowed to compete against real women in sports, and even SUE to get their way. Too often liberal judges agree with them and they prevail. But that doesn’t make it so. As Ayn Rand said, “A is A.” A can never be B. It is foolishness to try and make it B

Just as it is foolish to try and say there are more than 2 sexes. They try and convince us of other foolish things including believing they can stop violent crime by eliminating guns—which is an impossibility. Especially in this country, where we have the Second amendment guaranteeing the fact that we have the inalienable RIGHT to “bear arms.” Even so, the millions of ILLEGAL guns out there makes it an impossibility. Even if that were possible, violent crime would continue, just using something else as a weapon, as they did before guns were invented. They try and convince is that “there are no absolutes” so they will not be bound by an absolute. But their very statement SAYING there are no absolutes is a “statement of an absolute.” They refuse to believe it and continue to insist they are right. Stupid. (Just common sense)

Playing Into His Hands

Barack Obama hates this country. How he ever got to be president is a shame, and an insult to the electorate. He is a racist and a Muslim who hates Christians and Christianity. That is proven by his own words. Yes, he as a right to be Muslim, but that doesn’t give him a right to discriminate against Christianity, even though the Koran specifically tells all Muslims to KILL non-Muslims. The very fact that this man could get elected president shows a weakness in our system. Such people should be barred from politics and I’m sure people knew that about him BEFORE he even announced. There needs to be a system of vetting candidates to find out for sure what they really stand for before they’re ALLOWED to run for office and if they’re found to be an advocate of un-American ideas that should be brought out, not necessarily by their opponents, but by the publishing of the vetting results. Obama had been actively working to destroy this country as we know it as long as he has been alive, and people needed to know that BEFORE he was elected. He says this country is racist when it is Obama and his ilk that ARE racist. (Daily Headlines)

"Worried About Fairness"

Nancy Peelosi says the reason she is holding up sending her “articles of impeachment” to the Senate after making many noises about the “need for speed,” is that she wants assurance that it will be a “fair trial.” I think she should have thought about that before those boring, useless, “investigations” in the House, where they denied President Trump any kind of means to defend himself, and “slammed through” their “articles” without any kind of proof of any wrongdoing on his part. She has no room to talk at all when it comes to “fairness” after that dismal performance. I think the real reason she is holding onto her “articles” is so she can hold them over Trump’s head during the upcoming election, hoping to ruin his chances for re-election. But is is NOT going to happen. The amazing increase in his donations is ample evidence that the American people have already made up their minds, on the basis of FACTS, not suppositions and innuendo. They are GOING TO re-elect him, in spite of everything this bimbo can do. They elected him to get rid of the sort of politician that is represented by Nancy Peelosi, “Pencil Neck” Adam Shiff, and “Fat Boy” Jerry Nadler. And they’re working hard to blunt his efforts before he exposes them for the political hacks they are, and their corruption. (Just common sense)

I'm Repeating Myself

Every word I’m about to write, I’ve written before in this, and other spaces. I’m really getting tired of writing the same things over and over while being routinely ignored by the anti-gun fools. But I’m going to continue, in hopes that somebody will take my words seriously and cause them to stop making their useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws that nobody except the law-abiding obey. The law-abiding, who are NOT the problem, while the law-breakers just ignore them and get their guns illegally. A popular anti-gun law is the “background check,” which doesn’t do a single thing to stop people from killing people with guns, but just allows the cops MAYBE to apprehend the shooter—IF—the shooter got his gun legally, which most law-breakers—who ARE the problem—do NOT. In any case, it only would do anything AFTER the shooting happens and usually somebody is dead. “Gun-free zones” have NEVER stopped a single shooting in their “zones.” In fact, criminals and potential mass shooters SEEK THEM OUT because they figure they can be pretty sure the law-abiding there will not be armed, and thus will be defenseless. EVERY mass shooting has happened IN a “gun-free zone” for that reason. Meanwhile criminals, who just want to rob and kill people, do it more often than not in a gun-free zone. I could go on and on, but I won’t. I don’t want to bore anybody. In any case, maybe repeating myself will cement these things in the minds of people who read this blog so they can cogently argue against the misnamed “gun control” laws. (Just common sense)
