How Do We Protect Ourselves From Guns?
« on: August 28, 2019, 01:39:22 am »
Mike the Gun Guy 8/26/2019

This happens to be the question which at the moment appears to be driving the 2020 campaign. Even the noisemakers who are promoting Trump seem to think that he can only help himself renew the lease at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue if he comes out with a legislative package that will at least appear to contain some kind of gun-control ideas.

Now it comes as no surprise that The [failing] New York Times is urging passage of a gun-control bill. Big frickin’ deal (to quote Trump’s use of a time-honored expletive right out of any barroom in Queens.) But when The New York Post runs a lead editorial which tells Trump to make gun control Priority Number One, that’s not just a horse of a different color, it’s a different animal altogether and shouldn’t be dismissed out of hand.

The last time I looked, the two ideas which appear to have the best chance of winding up on the President’s desk are a ‘red flag’ law, which just about everyone seems to feel will make some bit of difference to controlling the carnage even though no doubt there will be the usual whining about giving the courts the ability to ‘steamroll’ the Bill of Rights.

I don't care what this guy calls himself, the proposed 'fixes' won't fix things, they will just add a minefield of crap for legal owners to go through. THe criminals won't pay any attention anyway.

Keep in mind they want to ban body armor, too. So they are after the active means of defense (a gun) and the passive means of defense (armor, at least enough to stop a 9mm).

Bottom line is that TPTB want the sheep helpless.

I ain't gonna go there.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

From the article: I’m not against either comprehensive background checks or red flags, not one bit. I just hope everyone realizes that the problems that may be solved by these laws are just the beginning of ending gun violence, not the end.

Needs to change his name to Mike the anti gun guy.

Not much of a "pro" gun guy anyway.

But ... but ... Gun-Free Zones are so effective! :chairbang:  :chairbang:  :chairbang:  :chairbang:  :chairbang:
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

No you constantly remind the poor dumb criminal bastard that has no conscience that his crime will usually end up hurting him way more than it is worth risking.
