Laocoön Speaks

In re LaPierre at CPAC:
There's a reason Bloomberg and other anti-gun billionaires are spending hundreds of millions of dollars for amnesty and over-immigration, and it isn't "cheap labor".
Over-immigration and government-sponsored invasion-occupation-amnesty pose a looming, ultimately fatal threat to gun rights by overwhelming the relatively conservative native born citizenry's voting control of our country. It's an indirect coup d'etat really, without a shot fired. Yet many gun rights supporters claim that the NRA can't oppose amnesty because it's a single-issue group. Fairly bizarre, if you think about it, that a gun rights group can't even acknowledge a massive indirect threat to gun rights that is near the point of no return thanks to that group's gross negligence and passive-aggressive complicity.

But the NRA has never been a single-issue group, certainly not in our lifetime. LaPierre champions all sorts of conservative issues, all except the one conservative issue that if lost will irreversibly defeat all the other conservative issues, the one threat that is soon to lock down the victory of the full Bloomberg gun control agenda, the one that will give the Dems permanent supermajority control of the USA and every institution within it. There is no such thing as a pro-gun Democrat. The D party is an anti-gun institution, led by gun grabbers. *All* Dems are anti-gun regardless of superficial positions and phony NRA grades. They all support anti-gun leadership, all support anti-gun candidates like Obama, all confirm extreme anti-gun nominations, etc. Don't worry though, there will still be RINOs around providing Kabuki hope for chumps.
Only GOA has had the courage, diligence and integrity to acknowledge amnesty as a gun rights issue and try to do anything about it. In fairness, the gun rights intelligentsia is very, very busy on higher priority items, like congratulating themselves on all the legal victories Bloomberg & Co will have ratcheting power to begin rolling back within a decade. There will be plenty of time for the gun rights intelligentsia to discuss this threat once it's too late to stop. Convenient thing about waiting until it's too late is that then they won't have to even try to stop it. And that's very convenient indeed for those "gun rights champions" who passive-aggressively support Bloomberg & Company's immigration coup d'etat.
An addendum to anti-illegal immigration activists:
Please read David Codrea's article and forward. He has other articles that need to be given some exposure. Why, for Heaven's sake, is the immigration control community neglecting or burying this unique angle on the immigration issue which -- if these groups were willing to lift a pinkie -- they could easily use to make allies with 110 million gun owners and probably compel the most powerful citizen group to stand with us? I haven't seen a single immigration group forward or discuss any of David Codrea's articles or Gun Owners of America's alerts, even as news. These groups wouldn't have to take a partisan or pro-gun stand, but there's nothing stopping them from reporting it as *news* for cripe's sake, to let their members discuss it and *study* it on blogs and so forth. Not only is nothing stopping them, it's their duty.
Then again, these groups have long behaved as if our side has the luxury of leaving huge amounts of potential power on the table. Mindlessly lobbying the enemy, no credible election organization, claiming that subversion and gross dereliction facilitating invasion and carnage are "discretionary" and not impeachable, etc. Which is why they need to get used to losing big, beginning soon.
That's pretty much what we're dealing with. Smart and principled activism is the key element missing between organized internet fleecing and people saying "Screw it, bring it on."

I would like to thank my friend and adviser for his wisdom and support.
