A Frostback’s Case for Disarming YOU

In any case, in what follows, I argue (I strongly believe, soundly) that not only (i) owning, carrying, and/or using guns, but also (ii) The 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution, and (iii) their necessary consequence, gun violence, are all rationally unjustified and immoral on broadly Kantian ethical grounds, and that therefore, (iv) Gun Abolitionism is rationally justified, morally right, and what we ought to do, by means of (iva) repealing The 2 nd Amendment, and then (ivb) universally banning owning, carrying, and/or using guns.

Thank you! I was afraid not enough gun owners would take this seriously.

Funny, he should represent himself as an ideogical follower of Kant:

Kant called for the gradual abolition of standing armies (professional armies maintained in peacetime) and for their replacement by citizen militias.

What a hoser, eh?

Oh, and look at this:

Just send money. I have to laugh at juxtaposing these “serious” academic citations against the memory of the letter from the dean telling me to shape up or ship out.

An Unexplored Opportunity

Education is another area where the perceived “need” for high tech work visas actually reflects the underlying failure of Democrat-dominated teachers’ unions and school administrations.

Take a look at per capita spending in public school systems, then compare it to how much is comparably spent in, say, India, and it makes fair the question of how and why so many can outperform U.S. students, many of whom graduate unable to read at the fourth-grade level, and are effectively unemployable. Ditto for those who aren’t qualified to use DEI degrees in anything the market is willing to pay for.

Why aren’t establishment education policies and curricula geared toward producing what the domestic market demands, to where the need to hire a foreign national over a qualified citizen candidate is one of special circumstances involving individual exceptionalism? Is flooding states with H-1Bs to enrich tech billionaires really the best way for the interests of We the People to be advanced?

Look at the Democrat-dominated teachers’ unions and tell me there’s not a political opportunity to capitalize with voters justifiably objecting to economic displacement by pointing out academia establishment failures due to willful educational malpractice.

And it’s no surprise these Marxist sell-outs want a “pathway to citizenship” for illegals, too.

Speaking of Seditious Conspiracy…

It’s time to accept that the US supreme court is illegitimate and must be replaced [More]

Imagine what a state reconstituted in the image of what these Marxist ivory tower academics propose would do to you for not obeying its disarmament diktats.

Hey, you had your “fair trial,” citizen.

Does anyone capable of rational thought still believe the culture war is not existential?

Can We All Get Along?

Professor calls White men ‘dangerous animals,’ says Kirk’s murder was ‘karma’ [More]

That means yours and mine would be, too. And dehumanizing us as “animals” is the first step to greater possibilities.

Good thing it’s impossible for black people to be racist.

So, what does Nuchelle want us to do?

Speaking of Seditious Conspiracy…

UNC professor on leave over ties to far-left gun club once headlined Harvard panel on armed activism… “I’m here to smash White supremacist capitalism, not defend civil society”… [More]

Yeah, we’ve talked about these communist insurgent domestic enemies before.

Seems there ought to be a Constitutional remedy for dealing with insurrection…

And the cool thing is, if the government ever gets tyrannical and goes “extra-Constitutional,” participation can be assessed for enforcement worthiness.

Everybody knows about the memorial to John Brown’s black victim, right?

So the Problem May Not Be White Christian Hetero Men…?

At the University of North Texas, courses such as “An American Demonology” and “Introduction to LGBTQ Studies,” are part of the Women’s and Gender Studies program. [More]

We’re not the ones saying they’re interrelated– they are.

Let’s ask Hillary who we need to watch.

Behold, a God Who Bleeds!

Faking Wokeness to Fit In – 88% of students report pretending to hold more progressive views than they really do [More]

Motives probably include everything from just plain cowardice, to wanting to avoid struggle sessions, to wanting to get a good grade, to wanting to get laid, and more. In any case, it hopefully means the David Hoggs of the world have overestimated their political clout.

There’s also the potential– once they discover they don’t need to pretend in order to keep ideological bullies at bay — that they’ll resent those who pressured them to, realize they’re neither invulnerable nor unassailable, and undergo a Salish Epiphany.

It’s Academic

Maine: Anti-Gun Professor Tries to Silence Pro-Gun Student – It Backfires Badly [More]

Like many bullies, she’s great at dishing it out but gets all psychically fragile when someone stands up to her. Let’s hope all the uproar sends her home quivering and reaching for the Xanax, box wine, and cat between outbursts of self-pity and rage.

The community college professor continued to heap insults on the student: “And think again about Jesus packing heat. Really. You and your ilk drive me nuts with your hypocrisy. Guns kill. Own it.” [More]

Jesus didn’t, but his disciples did.

Meanwhile, Over at the Religion of Peace…

Claremont McKenna’s Muslim Student Association had criticized the college’s choice of Rushdie in a May 2 statement, calling it “disrespectful” and out of line with the college’s commitment to inclusion. [More]

And nothing says inclusion like issuing ideological fatwas.

So much for “an open and welcoming space for everyone“…

Ah well, “misdirecting” on that is supported by history, text, and tradition… and I’m sure the word “rigorous” appplies to all those friendly faces.
