Uganda: We're from the Government and We're Here to Help You

While the United Nations works diligently to curb the Second Amendment rights of Americans, it is turning a blind eye to abused Karamojong tribesmen fighting a brutal government to keep their only means of self-defense.

"Esp. the Nigers!"

About a month or so ago, I noticed on my Technorati page that I was getting hits from a blog called "Guns Make Us Free." It was run by a blogger who called himself "NRAFourever," and it didn't take long to realize this was an anti-gun site designed to make gun owners look stupid and racist. So I did what I usually do with hate-filled people trying to call attention to themselves: I ignored it. No way was I going to link to it and give the guy any traffic.

Well now the page is down--not only that, but all record of the blog has been erased from internet archives, Google cache...and it appears this was not the only site run by this individual, and that they have all been taken down.

Why?

Perhaps it's because the racism went over the top, and the purveyor realized it could backfire and hurt him, badly, as well as damage organizations with which he is affiliated. That's my theory, and a YouTube posting that he couldn't delete shows just how bad he got.

At this point, I need to pause and cede something to political correctness--it's a shame that our culture requires it, but a charge of racism (even when fabricated, as in the case of the malignant dwarfs attacking Ron Paul) can damage or even destroy a person's reputation, so perhaps it would help if I presented the "inclusion policy" I drafted for the old GunTruths site:

We support the right of all peaceable people to keep and bear arms. Your age, race, sex, religion, political party, sexual orientation, or national origin are of no concern to us. Anyone who requires you to disarm is not your friend, and not our friend. Only when all peaceable citizens can freely exercise their inalienable right to self defense, and their right to keep and bear arms, will we attain the ultimate safeguard for our mutual protection, as individuals, as members of a community, and as citizens of the Republic. The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness extends to all human beings, and all who support the right to keep and bear arms are welcome here, period.

I bring it up because this post is going to contain some highly offensive racist rhetoric. So with that necessary measure in self protection out of the way, let's examine the tactics used by one sick individual before we go about the task of unmasking him.

Desperate to escape, and running from the light like the shamed coward he is, he closed his YouTube account, so his profile has now been deleted. That alone should tell you all you need to know about this wretch. Here's why, in comments I extracted from his posts on this page (bolding added to highlight racial slurs):

Yea, thats rite, but I think you got the stastic rong. I heard Wayyne LaPeare say it was 2 1/2 milloin! THat's a LOT more than you said hear! So I aggree, but lets get our numbers right to show that wer'e smarter than the gun GRABERS LIBS! GO NRA GO! If any of you getto nigers come to steal m y truck, I will PWN you with my rifel!

HA HA LOL LOL YOUR RITE, the libs are STUPIDE! NOT like us, we have smarte names like NRA FOUREVER and WHITECRACKER to show what we think clear and clean! Plus, we barricaede ourself in our house with guns b/c of our fear of the world! Esp. the nigers! Its not b/c were inseckure, its b/c its our RITEs gave by JESIS! Plus we love being intimete with our guns! GO NRA GO!

Not only that, but in DORFAR and in RAWANAD aprocksomately 5.5 MILLION poeple (mostly nigers) were MURDERDE because they had LOST THEIR GUNS (I think the NRA had a chapeter their too for a while). So you should put that i n your statstics next time! The LIB media never did say anything about that! GO NRA GO!

SINK95, your RONG! And probably A LI B too. GUNS have always SHRINKED all dying except for dumb and evil (and nigers). YOU ARE VICTIM OF THE LIB MEIDEA! Get educated--listen to the speaches of Mr. Wayyne LaPErro and Mr. Charelton H., they have all the staticsts and facts you need! JOIN THE PATRIOTICS! NRA ALL THE EWAY!

IF you try, I have up to 50 guns, armed and ready. YOUR the STUPIDE one who thinks that the studeys are rong, 2.5 milion is more than 2555 or whatever you think. I red it on NRA web sight, they are relyable. Stop cusing or Jesis will not love you (in non-homasexeul way). Guns is a tool! Use it for hamer or jug emptyer, or to shoot any minorety crimanal (or Zionest UN member) stealing your parking place. GO NRA GO!

YEA TRainer, were going to INGNORE you! GO NRA GO! Whitecrackerracist is RITE! WHITE POWER is the NRA WAY!

Among other things, he sounds quite illiterate, doesn't he? Actually, we're probably dealing with a highly educated creature, albeit one of questionable stability. And clues to his identity--the ones he's been covering his tracks over--point to a prominent member of an anti-gun group, one with academic credentials who parlays those to get his loopy views posted on "Authorized Journalist" editorial pages.

So who is this creep? That's not my story, so it's not my place to break it here, as other bloggers have done the compilation of evidence, complete with screenshots and emails. I'm not going to steal their thunder, but will link to their posts when they're ready to come forward with them. I've been in correspondence with several colleagues in recent days, and they've amassed some pretty compelling documentation.

Here's what I'm hoping to do with this: attract the attention of some civil rights groups and turn the evidence over to them so they can investigate. The principals involved will be less inclined to stonewall them, and more inclined to clean house and distance themselves from the central villain of this story. I'd also like to see involvement by the establishment media, and perhaps get some "official" reporters looking into this. And I think requesting a board of inquiry from the president of a certain university might also be in order, along with asking a certain alumni association whether this may jeopardize their mission...

Now here's an important caveat: I purposely haven't named names. Even though things appear to point to a certain individual, everyone deserves a presumption of innocence. So if it turns out that someone from the pro-gun camp is setting up circumstantial evidence to smear an ideological opponent, I want to see the perpetrator unmasked as much as anybody.

Two things should be clear to both sides in the gun debate: The racist rhetoric posted above has no place in it, and it is in the interest of both our sides to disassociate ourselves from anyone who would employ such vile tactics. That's why I invite people from "across the aisle" to join me in calling for an independent investigation, free of the "special interests" I admit as my motivation, to confirm the identity of the person behind the racist posts, regardless of whose "side" he is ultimately revealed to be on.

Dangerously Bad Form

At one point, Huckabee’s party turned toward a cluster of reporters and cameramen and, when they kicked up a pheasant, fired shotgun blasts over the group’s heads.

This, friends, is dangerously bad hunting form.

If what happened is as reported, I agree.

Besides which, I'm sick of politicians pandering to gun owners with hunting photo ops. I know Huckabee has a fair 2A record as far as establishment politicos go, but John Kerry wore me out on this tactic.

But what do I know about politics? Sadly, for many "sportsmen," it probably works.

Here is the latest story on our fight.

Have a great weekend and a happy new year. Thank you for your friendship and support this year,

This Day in History: December 28

This they have done, and are still doing, notwithstanding the base and cruel measures fallen upon by those in power, in Britain and America, to prevent their procuring the means of defence; in which, however, they have hitherto been unsuccessful, as the Americans have, though at a great expense, been supplied with ammunition sufficient to enable them to maintain a defensive war for many months, during which time they have used every method that could be devised, to prevail with the governing powers in Britain to repeal their unjust and cruel acts, and to revive that peace and harmony which formerly subsisted between Britain and America. Petitions, addresses, &c, have been sent to them, and that repeatedly, in hopes that at last they would meet with the desired and deserved success. But alas! Britons thirst for American blood!

We're not unique. Moral people try everything in their power to resolve things peaceably, and through "the system." It's only when all means of doing this have been barred that the potential for everything going to hell becomes likely.
