This is a placeholder for now because I have not had ads on this blog for years. In case I ever start up again, this will be the policy in effect:
The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don't think we're getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you're stupid, too. I have had a few ads on this site in the past and may do so again if I think it's worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn't buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don't mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now--you're not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer.
About "The Only Ones"
The purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it's also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they're involved in gun-related incidents.
Comment House Rules
Keep them on topic. No spam. No threats against anyone except me. Do not feed trolls--I'll take out the trash. Try to keep it clean. I'm the final arbiter. If you don't like the rules, start your own damn blog.
Link Policy
WarOnGuns reciprocates links with liberty-oriented sites promoting the right to keep and bear arms for all peaceable individuals. If you have linked to me and don't see your site below, it's probably just because I haven't noticed it yet. Shoot me an email via the "Contact Form" (see above in this sidebar) if you want to fix that.
As a general rule I remove links for blogs that have been inactive for over one year.
I know what that guy was thinking just before he was shot. "Hold the moral high ground, hold the moral high ground"..................
No Sean, not hardly. Is is actually this:
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. (Matthew 27:23-25)
Haven't you noticed throughout the last 20 centuries what evil has befallen the Jews, and how they seem powerless to stop it? No other race on earth just seems to give up and wait to die. Very, very few of the Jews in Europe fought against the tyranny.
One of these days they will wake up and realize the gravity and import of what their ancestors said on that eve of Passover . . . and how those folks condemned their children with the words "His blood be on us, and on our children."
That being said, let us be careful what we say, what we agree to, and what we lay upon our children.
Why such strong reactions to this "health" thing? Sure it's outrageous, but the income tax is "patently unconstitutional" and people still obey. Search "Irwin Schiff" and "Income Tax" if you think that's a conspiracy theory. And read the constitution. If "health care" is passed people will comply, but only if it is gradually, by degrees, phased in. In a few short years, health insurance "resistors" will be looked down upon as extremists.
I know it's got a lot of big words, and only a couple of pictures, but you managed a couple of complete sentences so I figure you can probably handle that too.
Educate yourself, and THINK. I've already done the hard work for you - all you've got to do is READ.
The constitutionality of the income tax is open to question due to the 14th Amendment. However, the constitutionality of nationalized health-care is not. It is patently (as you say) unconstitutional. It is a reach far beyond the scope of anything ever done in America before. Nationalized health-care will make us an outright communist nation. I, for one, cannot abide that.
The political leaders with power over the man in the photo simply, systematically, reduced the quality of life for him and millions like him to the point where death seemed a respite, a release, all the freedom there was left to hope for. Swing low, sweet chariot, crossing over Jordan, oh dem golden slippers when I lay my burden down. Argument of tyrants, creed of slaves, literally. Don't let the bastards wear you down.
I did read it, and I mostly agree. I say mostly because 8 years ago the Bushivisci passed a law that says the Executive branch can kidnap and you and kill you if it so desires. That's a pretty big deal.They can also spy on you, search your house, read your emails, see what you buy.. They can do anything. No judge, no jury, nothing. The 4th amendment is GONE already. But it was a Republican doing it so it's ok. The "health" bill just adds insult to injury. I hope they do pass this crap all at once because millions of people will tell them to shove it.
The part that disturbs me is that so many people seem to think things like this are wrong because the constitution didn't "authorize" it...
If the folks who want big brother government (a clear majority still) amend the constitution - it will suddenly be OK??
Not in my world. I do not recognize any "authority" of the constitution. I didn't sign it, I didn't agree to it, and I certainly will not stand by and be murdered because it says my rights have been canceled due to an "amendment."
Or do you have some pipe dream that only good and lofty things would be added by such an amendment? Remember prohibition, which set the stage for the "war on drugs," guns, and everything else.

Dedicated Dad has it exactly right.
"American in Name Only"
How appropriate. Shame that it's hard to pronounce.
Who's more un-American: Pelosi or Hasam?

Excellent read.
Sent it to everyone that I know.

That's why the amendment process has the unorganized-militia fail-safe backup system. Those afraid of the TEA Party-ers should take notice.
