Weer'd World

…When the Daily Kos bans you.

I won’t lie, before today I never read Kos. I didn’t like the format, and I had been told it was a site vastly to the left of places like the Huffington Post.

Well it seems that even a far-left place like that doesn’t have any tolerance to the lies of the antis and their methods.

Again a rule for the ages, if you’re gonna be a jerk, you aren’t going to have an easy life….

…and when life gets hard for you, good people will point and laugh because you’re an asshole!

As many of you know my buddy Waldo works at the gun counter at the Cabellas in Maine. When reading this post where I mention the general ignorance of firearms law of the general population he responded with this:

As for people being largely ignorant of local and federal regulations regarding the purchasing of firearms, I think even you would be surprised how many people from both Maine and New Hampshire call or stop in to ask us what they’ll need to purchase a gun. I can understand the Canadian tourists who wander by and ask just out of curiosity, but I get a surprising number of locals who don’t know if there’s a waiting period, or if they need a license, or what sort of documentation is required, &c. I also get a large number of people from Mass who either don’t know Mass state regulations, or have a selective memory when they walk into the store, since I’ve had several who wished to buy an AR or have a Glock shipped to their local FFL.

I think anybody who has stood behind a gun counter has experienced all of this and more, and most people like myself who can lose an afternoon milling around the gun shop shooting the breeze when they only stopped in for a box of .22s and some cleaning solvent, have heard most of that.

Now the hilarious side of it is that most of the anti-rights advocates have no idea what their local laws are, or what the laws in other states are. I suspect even some of the highest paid shills don’t even trouble themselves much with the petty details of the subject they make their living at.

That being said, these are also the majority of the voting block. They don’t know what the laws ARE! They don’t know if you need a waiting period, or if you can buy such-and-such a gun, or even if carry is legal, or what is required to get a permit, or where one can and can’t carry.

When various foolish laws come up the pike, these people have no frame of reference, and no idea what is reasonable and unreasonable. This is why we need to engage the public. The advantage of this is GUNS ARE COOL, and GUNS ARE FUN! So we don’t need to bore people or scare them. Just engage their interests and help create people friendly to the cause.

Bob just put up a LOT of work compiling quite the compelling case of the violent criminal past of one Michael Bonomo (AKA Mikeb302000).

However you feel about the troll its worth a look, its a sordid tale of addiction, depravity and violence, as well as disgusting hypocrisy against those who didn’t live a brutal life preying on, and victimizing the innocent.

Also if anything, Mr. Bonomo is living proof that all the gun control in the world won’t stop the very people who should NEVER have guns from getting them.

Now couple that with Joan Peterson’s defense of her murderous Brother-in-law as the Joyce Foundation Meme of “A Law Abiding Citizen until he pulled the trigger”. Despite the late Russell Lund Jr. being known for his violent temper (unknown if domestic abuse was also prevalent, but Barbara Lund would have been at a high risk of physical abuse, but Joan doesn’t want that known) and being in-and-out of Jail and court for some very serious and bizarre crimes, and possible complicity with the local police.

It would appear that most people who advocate for tighter restrictions on lawful citizens keeping and bearing arms are covering up for criminals known to them, or they are criminals themselves.

The very people we should be wary of are telling us how to protect ourselves.

“Step into my parlor, said the Spider to the Fly”….

Good work guys.
