The Poisoned River

The seemingly benign connotation of socialism today as democratic and altruistic would be a source of laughter to the innovators, namely, Karl Marx (1818–1883) and Friedrich Engels (1820–1895), and to the actual applicators like Vladimir I. Lenin (1870–1924), Joseph Stalin (1879–1953), Mao Tse-tung (1893–1976) or Fidel Castro (1926–2016). If one visited the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) website, or read the Collected Works of Lenin, or listened to the speeches of Fidel Castro, one would quickly realize that all communist demigods use the terms socialism and communism interchangeably.[More]

Miguel A. Faria, M.D., who has lived under and escaped communism, shares some important lessons elaborated in Stalin, Mao, Communism, and their 21st-Century Aftermath in Russia and China.

On with the Show!

Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners in parallel cases challenging California’s ban on gun shows held on public property have filed an emergency application with the U.S. Supreme Court asking that a Ninth Circuit Court mandate be recalled, and a stay be issued pending an appeal to the high court later this year.

Having personally seen California gun show attendees ignore attempts to preserve RKBA, I have to say their apathy has brought much of their plight upon themselves. The same ones probably haven’t contributed a dime to this case.

We’re the Only Ones De-Listing Enough

“I’m a [r]ealtor, I can show my badge—I can show my ID; give me a chance to show my ID,” Salem allegedly said repeatedly, according to the ruling. [More]

Nah, it’s more fun to terrorize you and take you hostage without probable cause.”Officer safety” is what this country is all about, you know.

Wait for It

Whether we’re talking about 2 minutes to register to vote or 10 or more minutes or even 30 minutes to vote these are a drop in the bucket compared to the months and months and months that some Americans in anti-gun jurisdictions have to wait to be able to get their carry permit to exercise their Second Amendment right… [Watch]

I’ve never applied for one so I wouldn’t know.

Hey, if it only takes two minutes to register, what’s all the phony brouhaha about disenfranchising voters because it’s too hard to prove eligibility?

We’re the Only Ones Retracting Enough

“This is something that was mistakenly enacted. Once we learned that the emergency order was not the order that we intended to declare, we immediately terminated it,” Det. Jarret Romanello, Public Information Officer for the Okeechobee City Police Department, told CBS12 News on Monday. [More]

How may revisions until you came up with the weasel words you thought were least laughable, Jarrett? Tell us you people are inexcusably incompetent without telling us you people are inexcusably incompetent.

And then they posture like the injured party:

“He’s not here today because he was subject to personal attacks all day from all over this country,” Romanello said, referring to Chief Hagan. “Most of the noise is coming from people that live outside the city of Okeechobee.”

So nonlocal opinions aren’t valid? Which logical fallacy is that again? And you’re sayingdeserved criticism is a valid reason to hide under the desk?

To paraphrase Rhett Butler, Boss Hagan deserves to be so attacked, and often, and by people who know how. As do his stooges.

We’re the Only Ones Corporal Enough

Illinois state trooper and wife arrested in child abuse investigation [More]

See, I might have tried “whipping with a belt, choking, excessive corporal punishment with a treadmill and hair cutting” when raising feral sons Uday and Qusay, but I realized I didn’t have the requisite professional training.

And my elderly mother-in-law passed away before I had a chance to smack her in the face…

We’re the Only Ones Alien Enough

The Minnesota Police Dept. has reported that Lesly Vera, a native of Somalia, was sworn in on Thursday as the department’s first non-citizen officer. [More]

So, foreign nationals can officially disarm citizens on U.S. soil.

What does she swear to?

And who needs blue helmets when “we” can import “our” own?

Hey, the last thing you want is enforcers versed in a Bill of Rights culture.

It’s like they’re rubbing our faces in it.
