Get Rid of Public Schools Now, by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

Posted on June 13, 2022 | Leave a comment

Here’s an idea whose time has come. From Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. at lewrockwell.com:

The recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas has led brain-dead Biden and his cohorts to try to take away our guns. It has also led to proposed legislation to investigate and take action against “right-wing terrorism” and white supremacy, even though not even the lefties claim that the Uvalde shooting had anything to do with such things.

It’s worth pointing out that the Uvalde shooting leaves many questions unanswered. As L. Todd Wood points out, “From an outsider looking into the situation surrounding the Texas school shooting, there is much confusion and many curious facts.

We know the World Economic Forum and the Chinese Communist Party are pushing for tyrannical control of humanity. Just this week the WEF was looking to pass ‘health amendments’ to give the WHO sovereignty over America, enabled by the Biden regime.

The only thing standing in the way of this in North America is your personal weapons. The Second Amendment was not just for self-defense, it was designed mainly as a bulwark against a tyrannical government, that our Founders gave us.

Hence my question about the criminal acts in Uvalde…

Will the Supreme Court put a stake through the heart of gun control? By Frank Friday

Posted on June 8, 2022 | Leave a comment

You don’t have a right, as a matter of right, to bear firearms if onerous and discretionary permitting allows government to deny you the necessary permit. From Frank Friday at americanthinker.com:

The irony is rich.  Old Joe Biden, floundering in the polls and needing a distraction, seized on the recent mass shootings to launch a gun control push.  Many conservatives are panicked by his talk of an “assault weapons” ban, whatever that means, and outlawing all 9mm ammunition.

Yet, without any compromise on badly needed school safety provisions, it is hard to see even modest federal gun restrictions going forward.  In fact, the Republican proposal is starting to look like no more than what McConnell, and even Trump, was offering the Dems in 2019.  Meanwhile, the constitutional conservatives on the Supreme Court are going to hand down another important decision on self-defense and the Second Amendment.

The looming SCOTUS decision everyone knows about is the expected overturning of Roe v. Wade in the Dobbs case.  But also coming this June is the Bruen case, which should strike down the granddaddy of all American gun control laws: New York’s 1911 Sullivan Act.  Sullivan was a corrupt Tammany Hall politician, and there are many scholars who think Sullivan’s motives in essentially disarming law-abiding citizens of their pistols was to make life easier for his many criminal compatriots.

Why We Need Our Guns, by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

Posted on June 6, 2022 | Leave a comment

Guns are the last defense against government tyranny, and history has demonstrated repeatedly that governments will tyrannize defenseless populations. From Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr., at lewrockwell.com:

Make no mistake about, brain-dead Biden and his gang of criminals want to take our guns away. And these efforts didn’t start with him. As James Bovard pointed out in 2020, ““’Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15,’ declared ‘Beto’ O’Rourke at a Democratic party presidential candidate debate in September. Compelling Americans to surrender their so-called assault weapons is ‘the newest purity test’ for Democratic presidential candidates, according to the Washington Post. O’Rourke and other Democratic presidential candidates, including Cory Booker, Kristin Gillibrand, and Bill de Blasio (now withdrawn from the race, as are Gillibrand and O’Rourke) have all endorsed mandatory buy-backs of assault weapons. Though such proposals are momentarily politically profitable, they could start a cascade of public-policy dominoes that ends in civil war.

When Australia and New Zealand mandated buy-backs of assault weapons, most gun owners ignored the decrees despite politicians repeatedly ratcheting up their threats. Similar noncompliance to laws requiring surrender or registration of assault weapons has occurred in California, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, and elsewhere.

Congress passed an assault-weapons ban in 1994 that lasted for a decade. The original assault-weapons ban protected Americans from being shot with rifles that included features such as grenade launchers, bayonet lugs, or other detailing whose primary impact was to fuel the phobias of gun haters.

Video: Tucker Carlson Warns “Disarming You Is The Point” Of Biden Gun Control Push, by Steve Watson

Posted on June 5, 2022 | 1 comment

The gun controllers have always wanted to take away the firearms of those who don’t toe their line. From Steve Watson at summit.news:

Video: Tucker Carlson Warns “Disarming You Is The Point” Of Biden Gun Control Push

“The point of this, of course, is to disarm people who did not vote for Joe Biden”

Responding to Joe Biden’s announcement that he intends to institute unprecedented gun control laws, Tucker Carlson warned that the intention is to disarm those who didn’t vote for him.

“This is about saving the children, Joe Biden just told us, but how many lives would this new law save?” Carlson asked.

“Well, we know the answer. Zero. Not one,” Carlson ciontuned, explaining “We know that because there’s precisely no evidence at all and never has been that larger magazines somehow inspire mass shootings. But of course saving lives is not the point of this.”

“Disarming you is the point,” the host further urged.

“The point of this, of course, is to disarm people who did not vote for Joe Biden”

‘We Gave Up Our Guns And It Turned Out Fine For Us,’ Says Australian Man Who Couldn’t Leave His House For Two Years

Posted on June 3, 2022 | Leave a comment

From The Babylon Bee:

SYDNEY—As opinions on gun control have filled the news following violent shootings caused by guns and nothing else, the non-authoritarian democracy of Australia has shone like a beacon of hope for proponents of strict gun control.

“We gave up our guns and it turned out fine for us,” said one Australian man who couldn’t leave his house for two years. “I mean, look how safe we are under the protection of the kind government.”

“The government would never shoot up a school,” said an Aussie grandmother who was beaten by a horde of policemen and women for venturing outside of her home to feed her starving pet kangaroo.

One young woman, who had been tased and imprisoned for allowing her face mask to fall below her nose for three seconds, emerged from a re-education camp praising her people’s decision to give up their ability to defend individual rights, “As a citizen of a gracious and benevolent society run by noble and generous leaders, I proudly give all to my new family, the Motherland Down Under.”

The young woman then proceeded to rat out a family member who suggested lockdowns may have slightly hurt the world economy.

The Final Exam, by Eric Peters

Posted on June 3, 2022 | Leave a comment

Does anyone really doubt that without Americans’ widespread ownership of firearms, they already would have lost whatever remains of their rights? From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:

 
 

Attempting to get people to “mask up” was the first test. The second was attempting to get them to roll up their sleeves for the Jab. Many failed both tests. Now comes the most important test – the final exam, so to speak. It is the attempt to get them to hand over the one thing that, so far, has probably prevented anyone – in the U.S. – from being forced, at  gunpoint – to submit to masks and Jabs.

Those two latter words in italics to convey the Cliff’s Notes essential points of this exam.

They were able to get most people to put on that vile device styled a “mask” – using the cudgel of denial of service, travel or employment. But it was not universal denial as there were alternatives, including places that would serve an “unmasked” person or work with them. Or you could work (and travel) on your own. It was inconvenient to not submit to “mask” wearing – but it wasn’t all that hard, either.

And it wasn’t forced.

Similarly as regards the drugs styled “vaccines” that were pushed by the government, using the corporations and other “private” businesses that no longer are, in the sense that they are only allowed to be in business if the government says so. And how so. As such, they have become proxy agents of the government. Some – like the creators of the drugs being pushed – use this symbiotic relationship to get the government to pressure people who work for these “private” businesses to take the drugs they make and which they make a great deal of money by pushing.

Recent Events Only Reinforce Our Need For Gun Rights And Community Militias, by Brandon Smith

Posted on June 3, 2022 | Leave a comment

The gun controllers pretend not to notice, but those of us who defend the Second Amendment do so because we don’t trust either the gun controllers or governments. Would anyone like to make the ludicrous argument that we should? From Brandon Smith at alt-market.us:

I want to stress a very important point first and foremost, because I don’t think the political left and the average gun grabber understands the gravity of the situation and they need to be educated:

Liberty advocates will NEVER give up their guns. It’s not going to happen. We have drawn a line in the sand when it comes to the 2nd Amendment and we are not going to move, not even an inch. It does not matter what legislation or executive orders Joe Biden promotes, and it does not matter if there are future criminal events involving firearms. There is no scenario in which we are going to hand over our ability to defend ourselves and rely on the government alone. All the indignant wailing and preaching from anti-gun leftists is for naught; they will get nothing.

Gun rights are integral to a free society because they act as a deterrent to potential government over-reach and authoritarianism. Tyrants might infiltrate politics and take over governments, and they might even THINK they have the ability to oppress the public, but they will never be quite sure they can get away with it as long as the public has the means to “reach out and touch them” from a distance. They will always have doubts and this is vital for freedom – When tyrants have doubts, liberty prevails.

Gun Control Narrative Omits Cases Where Guns Save Lives: Erich Pratt, by Mimi Nguyen Li and Steve Lance

Posted on June 2, 2022 | Leave a comment

The mainstream press generally ignores stories about when guns actually save lives, but it happens all the time. From Mimi Nguyen Li and Steve Lance at The Epoch Times via zerohedge.com:

The left’s push for more gun control omit the many cases that go against their narrative, such as instances where guns were used to neutralize shooters, according to Erich Pratt, the senior vice president of Gun Owners of America (GOA), a gun rights advocacy organization that represents more than 2 million Americans.

“The left is all about pushing gun control. It’s absolutely disgusting what they’re doing. They’re pushing gun control, they’re fundraising off of this within hours of the shooting,” Pratt told NTD’s Capitol Report, referring to the May 24 shooting that killed 21 people at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.

“And really, it’s despicable because it becomes clear they only care about certain deaths,” he said.

Politicians and activists pushing for gun control neglect to talk about cities that already have the policies they want to implement for the entire nation, he said.

“For example, more than 40 people have been shot and killed in Chicago this month. In the last 30 days, in Baltimore, there had been 20 people shot and killed. But the left is not talking about that. They’re not fundraising off of Chicago or Baltimore because they already have very strict gun control,” Pratt noted.

Don’t Trade Real Liberty for Phony Security, by Ron Paul

Posted on May 30, 2022 | Leave a comment

Those who exchange their liberty for security invariably end up with neither. From Ron Paul at theronpaulsintitute.org:

Authoritarian politicians wasted no time using the recent shootings in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas, to justify new infringements on liberty. Just days after the Buffalo shooting, the US House of Representatives passed a law creating new domestic terrorism offices in the FBI, the Justice Department, and the Department of Homeland Security.

This is a step toward achieving the longstanding goal of many progressives of focusing the national security state on “domestic terrorists” and “right-wing extremists.” Supporters of these efforts have used the Buffalo shooter’s mention of “replacement theory” in his “manifesto” to attack prominent conservative commentators, most notably Tucker Carlson. Carlson and others are accused of spreading the replacement conspiracy theory because they have pointed out that the Left has for years celebrated the coming “replacement” of the white majority population. The goal is to stigmatize, intimidate, and even criminalize those expressing views or facts that contradict the cultural Marxists or the Democrat party establishment.

‘Guns Should Not Be In The Hands Of The Mentally Unstable,’ Says Senile Man With Nukes

Posted on May 29, 2022 | Leave a comment

From The Babylon Bee:

WASHINGTON, D.C.—A senile old man in Washington who has a deadly nuclear arsenal at his fingertips is calling for dangerous weapons to be taken out of the hands of the mentally unstable.

“Listen, folks, this shouldn’t be difficult,” said the yammering old geriatric to a duck in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. “The mentally unstable shouldn’t have guns! It’s dangerous! Think of what could happen, Jack! They could fire it blindly through their front door because they heard a noise, or leave it right out in the open where a Taliban terrorist could pick it up, or accidentally kill innocent people they thought were bad guys but turned out to be foreign aid workers!” The man then dove face-first into the pool because he thought he saw an ice cream cone there.

Many Democrats are warning of chaos and death if mentally unstable people such as themselves ever get their hands on a firearm. “It would be a disaster,” said one Democratic strategist. “Think of putting weapons in the hands of people who can’t even define what a ‘woman’ is! I shudder at the thought! Please disarm us immediately!”

“It’s real simple,” said the old man as he climbed out of the Reflecting Pool, disappointed to not have found any ice cream. “Guns, tanks, drones, nukes—all that stuff—we gotta take those away from people who aren’t mentally fit!”

At publishing time, the man was on the run after taking an ice cream cone he mistook for a handgun out of the hands of a tourist.
