Coming Soon, to a Caliphate Near You

Dissident: ‘Iranian women are furious’ over headscarf death [More]

Meanwhile, stupid American women can’t wait to put theirs on as a sign of solidarity.

At least Iran is “easing up” on guns with “commonsense tyrant safety laws.”

Back when I lived there, I could ride my bike right into a market scene from Indiana Jones with my Daisy strapped to my shoulder and no one hassled me. It came in handy on more than one occasion to discourage the bolder jube dogs from coming any closer.

Spoken Like a True Orwellian Totalitarian

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern called for tighter regulations on Internet speech, suggesting that “disinformation” should be treated like gun control. [More]

When you control all the guns, you can control it all.

I think I’m going to write this one up sometime this week to relate an experience I had several years ago with New Zealand’s arbiters of truth.

We’re the Only Ones Totalitarian Enough

…25 to 30 fully-armored FBI agents stormed their property early Friday morning, aiming their rifles as the children screamed in horror. [More]

I guess it’s not fair to judge them until you’ve goose-stepped a mile in their jackboots.

Funny, how the ones who strive to keep their oaths are the ones portrayed as the domestic terror threat.

Hey, looks like a hit!

Supes to Big Brother: Hold Our Beer

“In a 7-4 vote on Tuesday, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors agreed to test Mayor London Breed’s controversial plan to overhaul the city’s surveillance practices, which will allow police to access private security cameras in real time.” [More]

I’m surprised that’s not challengeable on privacy grounds and also as a kind of unfunded mandate since the government doesn’t share in the costs.

If You’re So Inclined

On Saturday, September 24th from 1-4 pm, patriots will gather in Washington, D.C., at the corner of Constitution NW and First St NW, North of the Reflecting Pool, to stand united against the political persecution of the January 6th political prisoners. [More]

I was thinking of titling this “Calling All Provocateurs,” but don’t want to be seen as discouraging honest efforts.  That said, I’m staying away from politically-charged crowds these days, especially ones monitored by corrupt feds planning on coming for you in force afterward at a time and place of their choosing.

Then again, some will counter, if we give our right to peaceably assemble up to that, in a way the enemies have won.

Me, I’m thinking a developing “wartime” footing makes the idea of a peaceable assembly a wishful thinking illusion, we’re beyond that now, and the new rules are, let the other guy be the one who’s vulnerable.

Anybody heard any online chatter about this?

Case-Sensitive

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine says in a new court filing that Metro is too sensitive a place to allow regular commuters to carry handguns, because trains and buses carry large numbers of federal workers and also D.C. school children on a daily basis. [More]

Karl must drive to work.

What’s “a historical understanding” say about this?

Newspeak is Ingsoc and Ingsoc is Newspeak

Ari Dodge Sheehan, the counseling secretary for the Seattle-area Lynnwood High School, in March sent an employee-wide email to promote “Transgender Visibility Day” and provide guidelines on how to work with transgender students. The message included a section on “terms to avoid” that listed “born a man,” “born a woman,” “biologically male,” “biologically female,” “biological boy,” “biological girl,” “genetically male,” and “genetically female.” [More]

Like Orwell wrote, “The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect.”
