Joan Doubles Down

She Tweeted it Yesterday, and then doubled-down with a blog post. Lately Joan’s blog posts have been nothing short of an embarrassment. They’re disjointed, mostly quotes from other anti-rights shills, and really don’t follow any one train of thought. This one is a little more coherent, so I’ll reward her with a post!

Raise your hand if you think it’s a great idea for these Michigan militia members to get their arsenal of weapons back after serving time in jail. Really, where is common sense? I submit to my readers that when something like this can happen, there is something seriously wrong with our system. Yes, these 3 folks were acquitted while other members of their group were not. But really, what were they planning with all of these guns? Did they really have what was claimed to be a gun collection? Does one also collect ammunition just for fun if one is not planning to use it someday?

What an idiot! But it gets better with this!

Remember now, these are the very same people that the NRA and its’ minions want to become a “protected class” ( see my last post). We should worry about protecting these folks?

Well given that you want to take rights away from innocent people JUST because you don’t like them, YES! YES WE DO! Because Evil bitches like you exist, and you are so consumed with hate, that yeah, we do!

I had a really interesting conversation last night with a man who drives a security truck for pick-up of cash at businesses in town. He is armed every day because of his job. He leaves that gun at home when he goes out and about in the community because he, like many other gun owners, does not buy into the NRA’s version of America. The idea that gun owners could become some sort of “protected class” of people seemed ridiculous to him. Like so many other gun owners, he believes in background checks for all guns sales. I know this because I asked him. He does not believe in the loose conceal and carry laws and is very opposed to Stand Your Ground Laws. He supports the restrictions on ammunition magazines so that “only” ten or twelve bullets can be shot in one round. He finds it ridiculous that anyone thinks they need more than that. He is a hunter. He is reasonable and told me he would never join the NRA. And he finds the organization to be irrelevant in today’s world and understands that we should be trying to stop some people from owning and carrying guns.

First, who knows if this is true or not. Still one must question this security driver. He carries every day at work. How many ND’s has he had? How many people has he shot in error? So what’s the big deal carrying off duty?

Also gotta love Joan applying this gun owner to “many gun owners”…first no Gun Culture 2.0 gun owners would tolerate Joan, and certainly Joan doesn’t associate with anybody but “Progressives”, so maybe she THINKS this is common, but she’s self-selecting.

Again no rational is given for any of this shit, just that its “Common Sense”….well just because. Sounds like common sense to me!

But, as it turns out, all kinds of people who shouldn’t be carrying guns in public do so anyway. In Florida, according to one gun permit “instructor”, it’s “pretty freaking easy” to get a permit. Great. How reassuring. Raise your hand if you think the following is O.K. with you

Shouldn’t be carrying in YOUR eyes (again with taking rights away from people you hate!), I’m all for Vermont Style carry. Why should I ask permission to exercise a right. Oh you can tell Vermont, Wyoming, Alaska, and Arizona, because THE STREETS ARE RED WITH BLOOD!!!! (or not)

So good job at an *almost* coherent blog post. She’s already done another one, so her coherent streak was broken at one.

This is the VERY BEST the anti-rights side has. No wonder we’re winning!

“Gun Death” Stoop

Not only do anti-rights people talk about “Gun Death” as a danger to the general populace, but also against Police Officers.

A man accused of shoving a city police officer off a stoop to his death during a domestic violence arrest last year was convicted Wednesday of manslaughter….Police Officer Alain Schaberger was responding to a domestic violence call made by Villanueva’s girlfriend, who claimed Villanueva had threatened to kill her, on March 13, 2011.

Officers tracked him to another apartment and stood with him outside on the stoop. While Schaberger was trying to handcuff Villanueva, he shoved the officer over a railing, prosecutors said. Schaberger fell nine feet, breaking his neck.

Bet he wasn’t threatening his old lady with a gun either! But like the majority of police officers who die in auto accidents, those who fall to their death, or are beaten or stabbed to death aren’t relevant to the debate. Only the “Gun Deaths” count.

More from Martin/Zimmerman

Lots of Documents and photos released from the Zimmerman Martin case.

The documents are a little small for my eyes, but the photos strike me as nothing but consistent with Zimmerman’s side of the story. His face is busted up…his hands are uninjured, and there is one spent shell.

There’s the eyewitness report that also corroborates the story.

Really the only real surprise was there WAS a can of tea! Not sure if it was bought from a Seven-Eleven like alleged, or simply brought from home, but honestly I had assumed the tea and candy was a myth invented by Trayvon’s family, along with the idea that this troubled youth was a “Model Student”.

Of course there is nothing here that shows who started the fight….but so far that would have to be the ONLY lie Zimmerman told. Occam’s Razor and all.

The racists won’t be happy with this. Keep your mags loaded, and your powder dry!

We’re going to see riots!

Lake Walk

Should have lifted weights today, but I’m still running a little slow from yesterday’s fever, and the weather was PERFECT so I went for a walk around the lake. Brought the good camera along hoping I could get shots of the baby geese, but it appears the town already gathered them up. Pretty fast work given that I first saw them on Monday.

Still I got some pix.

Would have walked right by this guy until he started calling.

There were a lot of racket-makers.
This Killdeer was doing his full display.

Didn’t get any great shots of him.

There was this duck having a snack.

Then HE started quacking at me!

Speaking of Eating, got several shots of this guy for the SQUIRREL REPORT!

And we has CARP!

Saw a pile of them feeding on the surface, but I couldn’t get a shot of them that looked like anything. Never seen them do that. Just saw a bunch of black dots on the surface, then you’d see the white of their mouths gulping stuff at the surface, and they were all piled together. NEAT!

Last, there’s an old Cemetery on the lake. The stones in this section are from the late 1700s and early 1800s, and this stone is now INSIDE a maple tree

So no baby geese, but fun afternoon!

And That’s Your Solution?

The Brady Campaign is pushing this video.

So this woman’s husband died in the line of duty. Sad and tragic. But are we REALLY talking about guns, and illegal gun sales. (I haven’t looked up the original story of the case because the obviously skewed and biased video is damning enough)?

We have a girlfriend buying a gun for a felon. I assume the straw buy was because the GF could have passed a background check.

A law wouldn’t have stopped this. Its already illegal!

A Nine-time Felon who was out on Parole who was armed and committing crimes.

A law wouldn’t have stopped this. Its already illegal!

A man engaged in a gun battle with police and committed murder!

A law wouldn’t have stopped this. Its already illegal!

Sorry Brady Bunch, I know you love blood dancing, but this is a problem with letting monsters walk among us (monsters you support)

Sorry Bradies, but not only is their blood on your dancin’ shoes, but that red stuff on your hands? Yeah, that’s what that is.

You should be ashamed, but you aren’t!

Anti-Freedom, NOT Anti-Gun

Of course we know that anti-rights activists view the 2nd Amendment with nothing but spite, and would repeal it if they could. Given that they can’t, they just push laws that violate that.

Sebastian and Miguel talk about CSGV’s active hostility to George Zimmerman receiving a fair trial by a jury of his peers. Why, because he’s a lawful gun owner, and they hate him. Further the new evidence presented again all agrees with the story we heard on day one from Sanford Police. Zimmerman took a documented beating that night, and all evidence points that Martin was doing all of the beating. Overall I’m standing clear until all the evidence is released at the trial (specifically Martin’s blood toxicology, which is the one piece of evidence that would explain why things went down the way they are claimed by Zimmerman…ie that Martin ran off, and then doubled back and ambushed Zimmerman) It appears that every piece of concrete evidence agrees with Zimmerman’s story. The “Evidence” for Martin’s side all seems to be hearsay, or even pure fiction. Certainly all I’ve seen points out that Sanford had no reason to Arrest Zimmerman, and his later arrest and trumped-up charges were all at the bidding of the racist, violent mobs. There WILL be riots nation-wide, I suspect, and Zimmerman will likely get murdered by “Street Justice”, so arm up and be ready.

Here’s another great anti-freedom example from Joan Peterson:

.60-plus guns going back to 3 members of Hutaree militia http://on.freep.com/IXgC0f via @freep- more dangerous people with dangerous weapons

Ummm, from the story:

Now that they’ve been vindicated, three Hutaree militia defendants are getting their guns and ammunition back.

The court concluded that they are entitled to get their 60-plus guns back, along with hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition…”Since they didn’t engage in criminal activity, their lawfully maintained weapons and ammunition should be returned. The government has no basis to keep law-abiding citizens from exercising their Second Amendment rights.”

Of course Ms. Peterson and her Brady Campaign, and Joyce Foundation masters see ZERO need of INNOCENT people getting their property back. You see they see no reason for lawful people from owning guns. (Well except for whatever they consider “legitimate guns”….but I suspect Joan would toss her own Husband’s hunting rifles under the bus if she could)

These people are Anti-Freedom, and guns are just a small part of that. They will ban whatever they feel they can, and they will eliminate ANY freedoms they can. They do NOT believe in human rights! They do NOT believe in due process! They do not believe in laws or justice!

What they WANT is to control people. And the term “Useful Idiots” was coined because people like Joan Peterson, and Dan Gross, and Ladd Everett, and Jason Kilgore, and every other person pushing a “Progressive” agenda feel that once human rights are removed, only the people they perceive as “Other” will be harmed, and they will survive. Of course they will be the FIRST to be destroyed.

All you need to do is look at any Socialist State. The teachings of Marx, and the uprisings by his students were NEVER about altruism. It was ALWAYS about piracy and looting of the “Others”, and the “Others” were NEVER the people listening to speeches or fighting for the cause.

Just look at this whole 99% vs. the 1% of the Kill the Jews Movement. Do you think the people who were starved by Stalin or Mao, or put into death camps by Pol Pot or Hitler, or even the people who were killed by sub-standard hospitals in the UK Socialist Healthcare system thought they were the people who would feel the knife of the revolution?

They ALL thought it would be green pastures and the Big Rock Candy Mountain, while the object of their spite (be it the “Rich” or the “Educated”, or “Jews and Gypsies” etc) would suffer their fate.

Beware!

Quote of the Day

From Ambulance Driver.

It isn’t a “line of work” for me. It’s who I am. Don’t want me interfering in your decision to off yourself? Fine. Don’t. Get. Me. Involved.

It’s that simple. My number is 911. Don’t call it, or don’t make spiteful threats that spur other people to call it. Just get on with your business, preferably alone and in private.

Some people are taking offense on a Libertarian level for the instances where AD legally (and I’d say morally) can’t take “No” for an answer.

He’s made similar remarks about giving Jehova’s Witnesses blood transfusions. Its a mortal sin for them to “Consume Blood”, but in many instances not administering blood products means they die right there, which to Kelly (and myself) is also a “Mortal Sin” (quotes because I don’t actually ascribe to Mortal Sin on the religious level, and I never really took the time to talk faith with Kelly when we hang out…we’re generally too busy talking medicine, politics, funny stories, and guns. I do believe there are certain things that would haunt me for the rest of my natural life, such as letting somebody die that I KNEW I could have saved. Hell I’m still haunted by the suicide of a friend who I hadn’t talked to for months before she died. I doubt I could have “Saved her”, but I will always wonder what might have happened if I could have had a hand in her life at that moment in time)

Again, you want to get your full-wookie on, don’t involve others.

This is also why there are so few Libertarians in big cities. You just can’t be a REAL Libertarian in a dense urban environment because privacy and self-sufficiency only exists in the most tenuous sense. If you listen to music when you come home from the bar at 2am, you stand a good chance of waking a neighbor up. When you throw out your trash, you depend on somebody to haul it off for you, when you take a crap it gets flushed into the public sewers. Even in the suburbs, the classic car you’re restoring in your back yard, or how often you paint your house, or mow your lawn impacts the value of the other houses on the street.

I still admire the philosophy, but also I see that it simply cant be unlimited. In the case of the man threatening suicide, he was the proverbial man who decided to swing his arms near AD’s head.

Sorry, bub, you decided to get others involved in your personal choices, its on them too.

He gets called on the carpet for his claim of accountability on the economy he made when he was first elected. His answer? Well he needs just a little more time.

This is why I fear Obama less than Romney as President. He’s a staller. He’s a guy who votes “Present”, he’s a guy who goes on vacations. He’s a guy who can’t be be bothered to draft budgets, or propose legislation.

Romney is a guy who passes bills, and gets things done. Do we really want that?
