Children of Men

"The WOU student who was falsely arrested and charged with possession of a firearm in a public building, had all his criminal charges dropped by the Polk County DA tonight."

End of story, right?

Well, uh, no. The gunhaters must have their pound of flesh. [More]
Extra-legal tribunals, extracted confessions, forced recanting--even though no crime was committed. This is the state of "higher education" when it comes to gun owners exercising their unalienable right to keep and bear arms.

Here is today's Gun Rights Examiner column.

Tell a friend. Or at least click on the link and read it.

Read it, twice over. This is disgusting; 'ordered' to take psych screen; write an 'apology'; no man puts up with such merde. These pinheads need a tune-up or one way tix to Fidel's workers' paradise.

Hehe. I posted an draft outline for that ten page paper. I invite others to have fun expanding on it. We should have a working rough draft for Mr. Maxwell to submit in short order.

Idiots. They are going along with
what gets them noticed by TPTB.
We'll be sorry. Two points:
1. In recent years, more than one
self-described conservative with
a professional background has
floated the notion that "liberalism" is a psychiatric
disorder. I thought then, and do
now that this was really a bad
idea.
2. I fear we'll be seeing a lot
of recanters (former adherenets
of some sort or other of gun grabbers) It might be worthwhile
to think up a typology along the
lines of one about the varieties
of those against the RKBA, which
I saw recently but did not
save the correct cite.

This is a good a place as any to
recall that Exodus 17:13-22 (Parshas Beshalach, last week's
selection) reads: "The children of Israel were armed ["chamushim"] when they went up from Egypt. Page 367 of the Stone/Artscroll Chumash
One of the lessons of which being:
ain somchin al ha-nes: do not rely on miracles

by Rabbi Yirmiyahu Ullman - www.rabbiullman.com
http://ohr.edu/yhiy/article.php/3768

Ideally, a Jew would rather have peace than war. However, not only history, but also the Torah, teaches us that a Jew has to be willing and able to fight - and win.

Rabbi Ullman instances Avraham's in Bereshis (Genesis 14:13) war to free his Lot and other captives and discusses the passage in Sanhedrin 72a (the Babylonian Talmud), and the Shulchan Aruch's comment, and the much quoted passage in Eruvin 45a on attacks or ostensible "mere trespassing" on Shabbat. Please read the full article for a fuller overview All

Yes, I included a link to that in my Examiner piece.

Certainly these impromptu secret tribunals -- "star chambers," for the ceiling decor of the judicial offices where kidnapped political prisoners were "tried" -- will vote us into the camps with equal enthusiasm.
Will it come to the point that people minding their own business will choose NOT to allow themselves to be arrested for doing NOTHING WRONG? It'll be the surviving cops' story that gets heard in the investigation, so the label will be "dead insane right-wing terrorist," but we're already considered that, only not actually physically dead yet. It is a way of life that they really want dead.

Having to write self-incriminating statements about your "crimes" has long been the provinence of the communist left. U.S. prisoners of war in Korea had to do this deed, at least those who fell for the b.s. of the captors. Those who didn't were called "reactionaries" and were made to work hard but on the whole were better fed, clothed and housed than the other prisoners.

Virginia Tech now has an online archive of documents, memos and such about the April 2007 massacre of 32 students by an unopposed Seung-hui Cho.
Particularly pathetic are quotes from parents hoping against hope that they will find their child in intensive care instead of the morgue. They didn't. They were left alone without support from Tech officials. Police handed out the numers of the nearby hospitals and the morgue and advised hundreds of frantic parents to "make your own calls." A man who did get through to the dean of students found no information about his child but was asked by her to call around and see if he could identify some of those taken to hospitals.
Tech president Steger called parents to express sympathy for their losses in the April 16 shooting -- on August 9th. It was the first contact many parents had at all from Tech.
Carry, and to hell with the law and POLICIES. And to hell with POLICE if they mandate helplessness, and the ones who make laws and policies. It was an ordinary snowy April day.
You line up to vote. Imagine lining up to be shot dead. That's what it was like.

The parent asked to help by calling hospitals? Turned out his son was wounded but alive. The father is Andrew "Million Moms" Goddard, president of the central Va. chapter, and the General Assembly knows him well. He argues that college students, if "allowed" to have guns on campus, would shoot each other while drunk, or over women or parking spaces. Meanwhile, famed poet Nikki Giovanni at Tech has Cho removed from her class because his strange behavior scares others, but there's no follow-up.

Ignorance is Strength. War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Death is Victory.

You have to laugh at these f***ers. Attempting to chide a United States Marine on "the importance of following the law," "the importance of accepting responsibility for one's actions," and "recognizing the impact [of] possession of weapons." That's really a riot.

In order to be suspended form the university, Maxwell had to be a registered student, therefore he could not be successfully tried for loitering as he had a right to be there. The original phone call to campus security was for Maxwell carrying a knife, which was not cited by university policy. The local police are not authorized to execute university policy, only local and state law. Time to consult a good civil rights attorney aas there is a problem with both the local police and the university.

If I was this gentleman I would refuse and tell them to take their petty games back to their play pen. Then when the University tried to suspend him, file a full civil suit and sue the University for violating his civil rights and discriminating without due process. To many students let the University get uppity about violating their rights.

I couldn't help myself. I have no desire to be considered polite or "reasoned" to people such as this. The only reason they understand is force. And they seem bent on making it the only reply possible. Here's my email to the bastard.:

I had determined to try to keep this message civil, but I doubt greatly I will be successful. You see, it is just very difficult for me to be polite to treasonous bastards. Not knowing your parents and assuming they are decent people, who are properly ashamed of you, I apologize to them for any negative connotations my previous statement may incorrectly carry.

If you are really interested in that 10 page paper as you and your four sycophantic unnamed students ( I assume they are unnamed for lack of legitimacy) you should instead look to your own actions and words for the exact purpose of the Second Amendment to the Constitution. Its existence is predicated on the assumption that at some point persons of your low morals and lack of ethics gain positions of power in government and attempt to abuse free citizens who have done nothing either morally wrong or illegal. Its existence is further predicated on the belief that it provides the means to permanently remove them from those positions.

You sir are a criminal as well as a practicing petty tyrant. You have punished a man who did nothing wrong or illegal. You have done so, even though you lack the standing to do so. You are far more dangerous to this nation and its inhabitants than 100 young men like the one you just pilloried.

I suggest you show some guts and do such on your own hook without any bestowed authority to the next man you meet.

Just sending this to you and acknowledging your existence has made me feel dirty. You puke.

P.S. I warned you I might not be able to be polite. That's sort of what happens when one deals with the contemptible.

FYI : The Examiner seems to think the term "Piss-ant" is inappropriate.

I did go back and clean up my comment. It appears however that the term "silly-assed" is acceptable.

David Codrea said...

Yeah, they have some rules there that are automatic. I've never seen it invoked--did it give you a message?

SamenoKami said...

So David, are we going to get a post of your answers to the three points of the 10page punishment? Can you get Mike Vanderboegh to do one too? I'd love to see wordsmiths give an answer.
