Category: Gun Grabbing Fascists

Nothing gets the idiot class more spun up than a discussion about gun control. Take for example Harvard Constitutional Law professor Laurence Tribe who claims that, based on his own research, an AR-style rifle, fires 10 rounds per second, each bullet leaving the barrel at 2000 miles per hour.

I researched it; didn’t draw the 10ps rate from thin air. But even at 4ps, the devastation is staggering. Don’t get hung up on the immaterial details.

He didn’t pull that out of the air, it came from his ample ass.

In Maine’s Press-Herald, Greg Bates tries to make the case for civilian disarmament, but I couldn’t read past this paragraph;

But a fuzzy demand for “gun control” will likely squander this opportunity to save lives. To end gun deaths, we need to ban all civilian guns.

You know as if Prohibition worked because we banned liquor, as if the War on Drugs worked, etc…

Bates continues;

Reviewing shootings that occurred in public places and killed at least four victims, Lankford found that the U.S. had 90 mass shooters between 1966 and 2012, and we have some 300 million guns.

Thems pretty good odds. 90 mass shootings in more than 40 years and 300 million guns. I don’t think that says what he intended to say, even if his math is correct.

We know that at least four Broward County sheriff deputies didn’t enter the school to stop the gunman eleven days ago. The Broward County Sheriff’s Office didn’t do any thing to prevent the gunman from purchasing his firearms in any of the 39 contacts they made with him because of an agreement the sheriff made with the school system to look the other way. But, somehow, it’s the fault of the National Rifle Association, and the NRA has been adamant about making the NICS check more accurate to prevent dangerous people from possessing firearms.

I’m watching Pam Bondi, the Florida Attorney General on the news and she says that the BCSO hasn’t been honest with her while her office is investigating the BCSO and this incident. The governor has been asked to fire Sheriff Israel – it was his failures of leadership that influenced the actions of his deputies that day. One deputy not confronting the gunman is the result of him being a coward – four deputies not confronting the gunman is a failure of leadership. Israel, however refuses to resign, like a good little politician;

The Associated Press tries to denigrate NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch with quotes from her detractors;

In response, David Hogg, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, said students were focused on countering Loesch as they campaign for tighter gun laws.

“If you listen to her speak, she’s not really saying anything. She’s sounding positive and confident and that’s what she wants the people in the NRA to believe, her 5 million plus members,” Hogg said on CNN. “She wants them to think that she’s on their side, but she’s not. She’s actually working with the gun manufacturers.”

Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, said she was not in the least reassured by Loesch’s appearance at last week’s town hall, especially after she attacked the media the following day.

“She’s younger. She’s a woman and a mom. She’s television-ready,” Watts said. “But her rhetoric is just as radicalized, if not more, than Wayne LaPierre’s.”

Talking to David Hogg is like asking Nanny Bloomberg, Hogg is clearly in the pocket of Big Gun Control and Shannon Watts. In fact in this discussion, he’s the face of gun control.

The gun control crowd still haven’t been able to educate themselves on that which they’re trying to regulate since their last big push to ban guns. Someone should slap the key boards out of their hands before they hurt someone.

The days are gone when I tolerate lectures on gun control. We’ve been told that the country expects us to have a discussion about gun control, but mostly my side is expected to sit down and listen while we’re insulted and subjected to lies by people who don’t know the difference between stocks and flash suppressors. Now they drag children into this so-called discussion. The adults don’t know what they’re talking about, but we’re supposed to listen to children who, last week, we were lecturing about the dangers of eating laundry detergent.

A father of one of last week’s victims, Andrew Pollack, was himself victimized in the media when he showed up at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School wearing a Trump 2020 T-shirt. While he went through the grief process, goobers on the Left beat him up for his politics. He’ll get it again because he went to talk to the President and told the President that his focus should be on protecting students rather than get embroiled in the politics of gun control.

Colton Haab, an 18-year-old survivor of the shooting said that he refused to take part in CNN’s town hall-style program because CNN producers rejected his planned remarks that didn’t focus on more gun control;

“Colton wrote questions about school safety, suggested using veterans as armed school security guards but claims CNN wanted him to ask a scripted question instead so he decided not to go,” Stanwood reported.

“CNN had originally asked me to write a speech and questions and it ended up being all scripted,” Haab said. “I don’t think that it’s going get anything accomplished. It’s not gonna ask the true questions that all the parents and teachers and students have.”

CNN denies that account, but Michelle Malkin reminds us of CNN’s record of deceit in their “Town hall” programs.

The media is focused like a laser on banning so-called assault rifles, a product that they can’t even define. There were tons of failures going back years which caused the shootings last week and we still don’t even have answers to simple questions like “How does someone who has been forbidden to come on school grounds with even a backpack get a long gun in the hallways without someone noticing?” Yet, we’re going to listen to children about policy decisions. Beyond the frightful appearance of the guns, what characteristics should we ban and still remain true to the Second Amendment?

There are hundreds of things that will make students safer in their schools that are easier than trying to ram gun control down our throats.

Every sissy who ever fired a gun uses that experience to tell me to get rid of my scary black rifles – shut up, you’re coming off as a bunch of fear mongering pansies with your “The Time for Civilians to Own AR-15s Is Over” bullshit. You have your right to an opinion, but I have a right to call you a pansy, too. In fact, it’s time for journalists to be required to background checks and psyche profiles before they write. Don’t like me imposing on your Constitutional Rights? Well, now you know how I feel.

We’re not being told the entire truth about the events of last week, yet, I’m being lectured on gun control in nebulous, knee jerk platitudes. No, I won’t sit still while students lecture me. And the NRA can stop calling me – three times they’ve shook their tin cup at me since noon yesterday.

And, oh, a preemptive “F*** you” to Mountain Climbing Colorado Joe who has been haunting gun control posts all week.

CNN reports, happily, that the president has asked his Justice Department to propose ways to ban the sale of “bump stocks”. Bump stocks enable a gun man to pull the trigger on a semi-automatic once and the recoil of the weapon is used to more quickly fire the weapon – faster than the person would be able to pull the trigger without the device. As you can imagine, the weapon is difficult to control and it is less accurate than it would be otherwise.

n fact, if it was up to me, I’d make it a requirement that criminals had to use bump stocks and 100-round magazines. Large capacity magazines are notoriously subject to jamming, so used in conjunction with bump stocks, semi-automatic weapons are less likely to hurt people. But, hey, what do I know?

Congressional gun grabbers see an opportunity;

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a California Democrat who submitted a bill last year in the Senate that would ban bump stocks, welcomed Trump’s support for a ban but cautioned that new agency rules could fail because of the ATF’s past stance on the devices.
“If ATF tries to ban these devices after admitting repeatedly that it lacks the authority to do so, that process could be tied up in court for years, and that would mean bump stocks would continue to be sold,” Feinstein said.
“Legislation is the only answer,” she said. “Words are one thing, Mr. President, but we need meaningful action.”

Of course, gun grabbers in Florida tried to effect an “assault weapon ban” in their state and the measure failed yesterday, according to Associated Press.

Less than a week after 17 people were fatally shot at a Florida high school, the state House has voted down a motion to take up a bill that would ban assault rifles, effectively killing the measure for this session.

The motion failed by a 36-71 vote.

Well, I think the next school shooter already has his gun and his ammo. In Illinois, a 15-year-old from Round Lake Beach is cooling his heels in jail because he made threats on social media. In Everett, Washington, 18-year-old Joshua Alexander O’Connor’s grandmother reported him to police when she discovered his plans to use bombs in a school.

The IndyStar reports that “10 Indiana districts have investigated either a real or rumored copycat threat since Feb. 14.” According to Virginian-Pilot “five students have been charged: a Virginia Beach Middle School student; a 17-year-old from Smithfield High; a 14-year-old from Norfolk’s Lake Taylor Middle; and two children, ages 11 and 13, from Norview Middle in Norfolk.”

The West Virginia Gazette reports that “Thursday’s alleged threat against George Washington High School by a student was followed by more statewide threats, news releases, criminal charges against students, fears among parents and increased burdens on law enforcement. The majority of threats were unfounded, investigators said, but at least four were serious enough to warrant criminal charges or other discipline.”

Cleveland, Ohio’s Fox8 reports threats at four area schools. The Detroit Free Press reports that school security has been increased at city schools due to threats.

The problem isn’t guns, it’s cultural, banning guns won’t stop killers from killing by any means necessary.

According to the Associated Press gun grabbers are working over time to raise money in order to target legislators who don’t share their agenda. Shannon Watts, who recently said military personnel are white supremacists, says that “many of our lawmakers have failed us, but that’s why we have elections.” The Bloomberg-funded Everytown for Gun Safety says that the received $800,000 in unsolicited donations;

Everytown for Gun Safety says it has received $800,000 in unsolicited donations since the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. It calls it a precursor for midterm elections in 2018, which it hopes will turn the tide in gun politics.

John Feinblatt, president of the Everytown group, says “it’s time to elect leaders who will finally act to save lives from gun violence.”

The five-point action plan includes pledging to vote according to candidates’ positions on gun safety, letting leaders know the money they’ve taken from the National Rifle Association will determine one’s vote, registering friends to vote, getting candidates to state their conditions on the record, and finally, running for office to become a champion for sensible gun laws.

Yeah, good luck with that. The last election turned on a few issues, one of them was gun control. The gun-grabbers are promoting fake news. They claim that there were 18 school shootings this year – there have been three. Their number includes one incident where someone shot a BB gun at a school bus. Americans don’t like being lied to, you’d have thought that the 2016 election would have taught the other side that lesson.

According to USAToday, some guy name Jimmy Kimmel addressed the President from his stage;

“Tell your buddies in Congress, tell Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell and Marco Rubio — all the family men who care so much about their communities — that what we need are laws, real laws that do everything possible to keep assault rifles out of the hands of people who are going to shoot our kids,” Kimmel said. “Go on TV and tell them to do that.”

“That is a perfect example of the common sense you told us you were going to bring to the White House,” Kimmel continued. It’s time to bring it. We need it. Tell these congressmen and lobbyists who infest that swamp you said you were going to drain, force these allegedly Christian men and women who stuff their pockets with money from the NRA year after year after year to do something now. Not later, now.”

Yeah, the NRA isn’t the problem, it’s blivet-heads like you who want Congress to “do something now” and you don’t have any real suggestions, just platitudes about “something”. The NRA represents the interests of millions of Americans who can’t afford armed protection for them and their families like you. Stick to videos of women in bikinis on trampolines.

The Huffington Post reports that New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco are joining in a lawsuit against the Pentagon charging that the Department of Defense was negligent in their failure to report service members’ crimes to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, or NICS.

Together, the cities will “stand up to the Department of Defense and demand they comply with the law and repair their drastically flawed system,” New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said in a statement. “This failure on behalf of the Department of Defense has led to the loss of innocent lives by putting guns in the hands of criminals and those who wish to cause immeasurable harm.”

Yeah, it’s all based on one case in Texas where Devin Patrick Kelley was able to purchase firearms because the Air Force didn’t report him to the NICS system when he stood a court martial for domestic abuse. That case didn’t affect any of those three cities, but, of course, they have to appear to be doing “something, anything” for their constituents. Even if that “something, anything”, doesn’t do anything at all.

While I agree that the DoD needs to come into compliance with the NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007, it’s pretty childish of the leadership of those three cities to blame their gun control problems on something that doesn’t affect them.

For example, San Francisco’s sanctuary city status has killed more people in that city than the DoD.
