What's the Difference Between a 'Mostly Peaceful Protestor' and a 'Rioter'?

You know what they didn’t do? They didn’t kill anyone. That was reserved for someone who shot through a door sidelight at a protester.  You know what else they didn’t do? Use live ammo.  You know what else they didn’t do? Trample the flag, which the capitol police did, while being begged not to. You know what else they didn’t do? shine lasers in cops eyes, set fire to the building, loot it, or shoot fireworks at people. [More]

I see the "moderate" Republicans are doing their utmost to suck up to their Democrat overlords. A special "Cuck for Law and Order" award goes to CPAC’s Matt Schlapp, who looks like he'd also be Blubbering Cellmate Bitch of the Month if he ever runs afoul of the authoritarianism he so enthusiastically takes two knees for.

We're the Only Ones Sick and Tired Enough

...and if you're the ones that are out there spreading the rhetoric that police officers are the enemy, well just know that we've all got your number now, we're gonna be keeping track of all y’all and we’re going to make sure that we hold you accountable every time you stir the pot on our police officers.” [Watch]

I can help with that.

Because some of us are sick and tired too, and reject the lie that exposing and criticizing wrongdoing under color of authority is something we dare not do lest we become targets for retaliation.

And we're especially sick and tired of hearing crap like "epidemic of gun violence" used to demand new edicts that won't make a damn bit of difference on the dangers not just "Only Ones," but we all face.

Many Moving Parts

There are many moving parts to make the nation safer from gun violence. It will take reforms big and small, and the concerted effort by public officials to follow through on laws and regulations already aimed at keeping guns from the wrong hands. [More]

Those would be your hands.

And as admitted, they'll take each scrap offered and then demand more.

Sure

They initially met resistance from a small, but boisterous, group defending Second Amendment rights. However, each side listened to the other's position, and support for taking guns away from domestic abusers gained an ally. "We support the moms in this. We are all against domestic abusers. We believe they're criminals. They shouldn't have handguns, or guns of any kind," said one Second Amendment right's activist. [More]

Unclear on the Concept

Christianity demands action. It insists on the protection of the innocent.  [More]

Right.

So why demand and insist on giving the advantage to demons lusting after their blood?

And if looking for learned theological insights to heed, might we find superior alternatives to a secular "progressive" establishment journalist with no apparent scholarly religious credentials?

How about this guy?

"He that suffers his life to be taken from him by one who has no authority for that purpose, when he might preserve it by defense, incurs the Guilt of self murder since God has enjoined him to seek the continuance of his life, and Nature itself teaches every creature to defend itself."

If you really want to know why such caution exists, blame the damn gun-grabbers.

The Infringement Continues

The Supreme Court on Monday declined to take a case about the boundaries of the Second Amendment's right to keep and bear arms, by saying it will not review a California self-defense law. The petitioners in Peruta v. California who asked the Supreme Court to review the case called the controversy "perhaps the single most important unresolved Second Amendment question" left to come before the Supreme Court. The high court's action on Monday will leave that question unresolved. [More]

Meaning Americans will remain disarmed or face the risk of having their lives destroyed.

Everybody knows who thinks they're the boss, right?

It's for damn sure legislative remedies have been exhausted. And now the high court has sided with the power elites.

So what do you do?

I know what I did for over 20 years when I lived in California.

I plan on commenting in more detail later-- I'm waiting to see what SCOTUS does with the foreign travel restrictions so I can do a twofer piece.

UPDATE: Watched about 2 minutes of prefatory excuse-making bullshit from whoever the dj is and just have no time to suffer fools. If he really believes "absolutism is a bigger threat" and that we have to unify with quislings, he's irrelevant to freedom. The same weasel words are used all the time by politicians to swindle gun owners. Besides which, even if this involved a total mea culpa and apology, look at the number of podcast views and don't expect it to do a thing to mitigate the damage done via mass media.
