Facebook Implements Chinese-Style Censorship/Snitch Policies

Borrowing a tactic from the police state playbook, Facebook’s “No Guns” enforcement will be dependent on an army of citizen snitches. Based on comments on gun-grabber social media pages, their fascist members are eager to do what they can to get gun owner accounts closed out for “violations.” [More]

Nobody thought it was ultimately about just controlling guns, did they...?

Turning Lemons into Lemonade

Under the new Facebook "No gun ads" policy, there’s nothing to stop you from posting a picture and details about a gun you own and inviting inquiries about it. If someone contacts you asking how much you want for it, just tell them Facebook policy prohibits using their platform to solicit gun transfers, but if they’re interested in more information about your gun -- for educational purposes only -- they can contact you via email.

If, after establishing a relationship separate from Facebook, you wish to change your mind and consider selling to the person, do what you’d normally do to make sure you’re not being set up by a stranger. And if it turns out that person was a gun-grabber troll, by that time you ought to have validated enough personal information to release it and “out” them as the punk snitch they are, complete with email address, phone number and more. In any case,you won't have transacted any business in violation of Facebook rules.

As a matter of fact, those of us without guns to sell could still set nets up for gunsnitches to blunder in to, as per this example:

VCDL on the McAwful Reciprocity Deal

#3 - Persons subject to a PERMANENT domestic violence protection order cannot possess firearms until the order expires
* The ONLY permanent protection order this restriction applies to is one for domestic violence and NOTHING else.
* The subject of the protection order must have had his day in court along with any legal counsel. Temporary protection orders do NOT affect possession of firearms.
* If the judge, after hearing the defense, decides to issue a permanent protection order anyhow, the subject of the protection order will lose his gun rights for the duration of the order (MAXIMUM of two years), and automatically get those gun rights back when the permanent protection order expires. Note: a new permanent protection order could potentially be issued when the perament protection order expires if the judge thinks a danger still exists.
* The subject of the permanent protection order will have 24 hours to turn his guns over to a person of his choice, as long as that person can legally possess firearms.
* The above is basically federal law already, and state law already prohibits a person with such a permanent protection order from purchasing or transporting a firearm. [More]

Here's where I'm coming from:

Has the person been convicted of a crime?  Did he have a jury trial where he was proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?

That's all that matters to me.

Along with an undeniable truth.

How to Harvest a Migrant Worker

Mass immigration into America, legal or not, is primarily about importing customers to replace the aging Baby Boomer consumers who are leaving the economy at the rate of over 10,000 per day.  They need to be replaced if businesses are to continue earning their profits, and businessmen, obviously from the three examples above, don’t care who the customers are, regardless of the changes and damage that will ensue to the culture and our country.

Rick Oltman ties in what's going on with a movie review. He knows whereof he speaks.

The movie sounds interesting and important. The book even more so. And your library may have it, like mine does.

Too bad Steve Carrell is a typical Hollywood Prozi.  I guess if you want to be on the A-List, you need to play ball, "regardless of the changes and damage that will ensue to the culture and our country."

I guess I'll wait for Netflix...

Malheur SITREP – 1900L 29 JAN 16

There's plenty of bad information out there.  This is validated information. [More]

Also of vital importance -- Ammon Bundy's statement:

My message still remains. Turn yourselves in and do not use physical force. Use the national platform we have to continue to defend liberty through our constitutional rights in an Article 3 Court with an Article 3 judge.

If you think you know more about the situation and better what needs to be done now than he does, feel free to share your personal qualifications and make your case for why people should follow you.

We're the Only Ones Hacked Enough

Private files belonging to America’s largest police union, the Fraternal Order of Police, have been hacked and posted online.  The file is said to contain names and addresses of officers including various contracts with cities and private forum posts. [More]

Gee, that's really too bad. Especially since this is their position on ending private sales/universal registration:

Jim Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, said in an interview that he now supports extending checks to gun shows and other venues where they are not required.

"Closing that gap would make it much more difficult for criminals to obtain firearms,” he said.

They can't even keep their own files secure, and they want to add ours?

Oh, but NICS requires destruction of records?

Note the FBI acknowledges that as "Current destruction of records..."?

Things change, and there's no shortage of those who would like to change them. And when that happens, you can count on the records being as secure as, say, Hillary's emails.

Bloomberg Cities Make Top 50 List for World’s ‘Most Violent’

As for the U.S. cities that made the list, they also share undeniable commonalities. For instance, they’re all dominated by Democrats. They all champion “progressive” policies.  And every single one of them has been an enthusiastic member of Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns... [More]

What we need are common sense despot safety laws as only Everytyranny can impose 'em!

Playing Right into Their Hands

Somebody needs to pull this man aside and see if he realizes what he just did here, and what he needs to do to fix it.  [More]

To Be or Not to Be

For pharmacists, the bill would add a required six-hour training course to their accreditation process. Gun store owners would be eligible for a tax credit after completing an online training course. Both trainings would focus on how to spot people who might be suicidal, how to talk about suicide, and how to encourage people to store both medications and firearms safely. [More]

And they'll be indemnified against lawsuits if their attempts turn out bad, or if someone they sell a gun to offs himself and it's proven the FFL declined participating in the program?

A Surprising Moment of Compromise

Personally, I'd rather not have due process stripped away based on allegations by an interested party. [More]

Vanderboegh Work Weekend/Barbecue Update

This still leaves much to do in both outside jungle removal and inside organization and packing (books and papers that I am donating to the Vanderboegh collection at the Birmingham Public Library Archives), not to mention help carrying out the logistics of feeding those folks who show up during those three days. [More]

If you can go, go. If you can't, share.

That last bit isn't too much to ask, is it?

I trust everyone who has derived value from Mike's work -- except for a very small number of people in similar desperate straits -- has made their gratitude offering, even if only a widow's mite?

Coming Out Blazing

Advocates of gun control raked in $3.6 million over the last two years to place an initiative to tighten background checks for gun purchases and transfers in Nevada on the November ballot and ensure it passes. [More]

Here's why YOU should care:

The initiative is part of a broader national push to establish universal background check laws state by state after an effort to do so on the federal level failed in 2013. 

Think they won't be advancing into your neck of the woods if they break through the front lines?  Speaking of which, the troops there could use some immediate support.

And while you're at it, you might want to tell Wynn and Caesars to go to hell.  I'm sure their mucky-mucks have plenty of muscle protecting them.

With SHOT having wrapped up, I wonder what kind of effort -- if any -- the guys making all the money put into defending against Bloomberg and alerting visitors in need of accommodations where NOT to stay...

The Bully Pulpit

Instead of concerning themselves with federal issues, they are using the Federal Government letterhead to harass a state level association (Connecticut Food Association). This is a bully tactic that is being deployed by legislators that in reality have little to say about Connecticut state laws. [More]

Since when have "progressives" ever been concerned with limits on their power or, for that matter,minding their own damn business?

Call to Action

Calling on any and all Americans to come to Burns, Oregon to come to the aid of the American people standing against these violent, malicious and deceitful tactics. [More]

And what is proposed if the demands aren't met?

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise

Gun Baby Gun’s broad thrust is that firearms ownership in and of itself is a worldwide evil and that gun control, in the American sense of banning everything, is the only answer to this perceived problem. [More]

And who better to believe than a disgraced "journalist" (kind of a redundancy) who falsely accuses people he politically disagrees with of being a kiddy-diddler?

As an aside, I though no one was talking about taking away our guns...

All You Need to Know

When asked who she thought the best candidate was on the Republican side she cited Jeb Bush saying he is 'the only voice on the other side that is demonstrating strong American values'. [More]

They share values? Besides giving Mommy that Constitution Center Liberty Medal?

Oh. They do!

Yeah, listen to Princess Prozi on who the GOP candidate should be. I'm sure she only has everyone's best interests at heart.

Because It's All about Michael Savage

“I’m demanding an investigation,” he said. “I’m demanding the attorney general send a task force into Oregon.”

And if the feds won’t, the United Nations ought to look into it, Savage said. [More]

Yeah, that's just what the Patriot movement is all about, you fraudulent carnival barker.

Physician, Heal Thyself

I saved a patient's life by telling him about seat belts! He'd never heard of such things before! And now I'm going to give you a prescription on guns! [More]

What? My qualifications, certifications and credentials establishing competence? And you want to know about malpractice coverage should my unqualified advice result in a negative outcome...?

Why...why...why I'm a DOCTOR!

And we know about everything.
