Urgent Action Alert!

Friend Laocoön shared his reply to another of those inane Call Your Politician advocacy group emails:
In Lieu of lobbying a politician who might be receptive, you ask me to call Comrade Ted Lieu (F-, aka Henry Waxman Jr.), Comrade Diane Feinstein (F), and Comrade Barbara Boxer (F).
Even on Pearl Harbor Day, you have your troops attack the ocean instead of strategic targets. Pass. My time is valuable. If you want me and my list to call, give us an option to lobby a focused list of legislators, outside our districts, who might be receptive or vulnerable. If we can volunteer or donate for or against someone outside our districts, then we can lobby them and they have an incentive to listen. They would have still more incentive, vastly more, if you stopped making excuses for not organizing and targeting a focus list at election time.
If I call a legislator, his staff better damn well at least pretend to listen or my next check will be to his opponent. We're losing our country. Why in God's name are you leaving power on the table? Because politicians tell you they don't want to hear from us? And you take that at face value? Of course they don't want to hear from us. That does not mean they ignore potential donors and activists who can make political survival easier or more difficult. And they will ignore anyone, even in their own district, who isn't organized and focused, who isn't a credible threat or ally -- such as your members, since you insist on keeping them harmless.
*        *        *        *        *        *        *
Put your hand out in the sun on a cool day. Feels good, right? Now focus the same energy through a magnifying glass. How's it feel now? Diffused and dispersed use of limited power is worse than harmless, it aids, assists and gives comfort to the enemy. To attack everything is to attack nothing. - Laocoön, Mutual Defense
This is something more and more are waking up to, and those who play a cynical numbers game to create an illusion of relevance are going to find more and more of their emails automatically relegated to the "junk" folder, where they belong.

The Continuing Crisis

 That’s not to say that any have been proved. They’ve barely been investigated, whether at the federal or state level, in the courts, or by the media. For it’s quite clear that most of the people who really run America don’t want to know what really happened. More to the point, they don’t want you to know ...  Irregularities that our own State Department considers sufficient proof to declare third-world elections fraudulent are, here at home, not even enough to quality as “evidence.” [More]

As good a postmortem as any I've seen...

His assessment of future options for those who are persecuted with no means for redress seems a bit insulated, and Mr. Kennedy's observation about inevitability comes to mind.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Infringement' Is

 


Comments from WarOnGuns Correspondent Laocoön:
"NICS, the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, exists to prevent felons from purchasing guns and I have no problem with that."

Wrong.  O'Keefe needs to research and THINK about this issue.  His own experience shows it's not a criminal background check, and it does not exist to prevent felons from buying guns.  It's a system that enables government to register gun owners, punish and leave dissenters defenseless.

"Bottom line is the FBI should've never put me on that list."

No kidding, Sherlock, but they DID, and they are NOT accountable.

"So this week, I'm announcing I'm going to file a lawsuit in federal court to have my name taken off the list to correct the absolutely false claim that I've ever committed a felony."

Good for him.  Unfortunately, most of us can't afford to file a federal lawsuit if falsely denied.
And, of course, the antis are all about expanding it to include "No Fly Listers."

Funny, how some who say they're on "our side" pushed "Fix NICS" instead of condemning the damn prior restraint as an unAmerican Intolerable Act.

Hope Against Hope

Tucker: President Trump's hope for re-election [Watch]
That might buy some time, but I note nobody's talking about the only hope for "the security of a free State."

Especially the "gun lobby" groups...

Male and Female Created He Them

You don’t make men good by softening them, just like you don’t make a knife better by dulling it. [More]
No wonder these weaklings resent their betters so and try to tear them down with the only weapon in their personal arsenals -- bitchiness.

Meanwhile, California is dictating how toys must be sorted and the destroyers are increasingly emboldened to reveal where they're going with all this.

You get the feeling Who they're really at war with...?

Close Enough for Government Work

 



The CDC Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System appears as reliably authoritative as it is easy to use, meaning it's a mess. I can't give you a direct link to this because you have to go to the CDCWONDER site (and what a wonder it is) and click "I agree" before you can get into the Data Search function. 

Anyway, it's nice to know that part of the COVID/"vaccine" death tally involves a one-year-old who committed suicide with a gun!

The Voter Watchlist


Regulars here know about my little truism.

Let's adopt the "logic" of the left for a moment and come up with a corollary:

Anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted to vote.

And as long as "progressives" are on a roll, why not extend the voting ban it to all those on the secret "terror watchlist"?

Shouldn’t we demand "rigorous security screening"?

My God, do we want criminals and terrorists deciding our elections? I guess that's the wrong question to ask those who depend on them (along with the dead).

No, of course they wouldn't go for it. But why not ask it loudly anyway?

Blasts from the Past

I can't do justice to the info here with a simple link to today's updating aggregator post, so this one gets to be standalone. WarOnGuns Correspondent Laocoön sends via email:

First thing banana republic coup traitors do is grab radio stations, etc. Our coup traitors already had the media (including Fox News) grabbed much of the internet and social media alternatives and began progressively ramping up censorship years *before* the coup. “Fair and Balanced” Fox suspended Janine and silenced McEnany for trying to discuss vote fraud. Appears they’re backing off somewhat in the face of permanently pissing away too many viewers to One America News, etc. The Murdochs prioritize money grubbing first, globalism second.

Dindu Nuffin Republicans knew about all this and did ... tah dah ... NOTHING.  Now many are acting like vote theft is something new.

So Much for Being "Owned by the Gun Manufacturers"

Even CNN admits  the money comes from the grassroots, making this a good link to have the next time you run across a Prozi troll spreading lies. [More]

That said, the bit about the computer programmer from Texas tithing to Fairfax, the subject of another CNN piece, elicited a response from WarOnGuns Correspondent Laocoön. I don't see where his comment was allowed, so I need to post it here rather than link to it: :
What a sucker.
1. The NRA raises $400 MILLION dollars a year, most of it wasted and stuffed into the pockets of greedy staff, sweetheart vendors, corrupt directors, phony "pro gun" politicians, and other parasites who don't give crap one about 2A or are actually working passive-aggressively to destroy 2A and the USA itself.
2. Wayne LaPierre's "package", the disclosed part of it anyway, is over $2 million; Pepe LaPew's pay alone is about the size of the entire budget of Gun Owners of America. 
3. There is no such thing as a pro-gun Democrat politician. ALL Democrats are working for gun control and the destruction of the USA. Every last one. There is no such thing as a Dem who never supports openly anti-gun Dems for other offices (e.g., President), never votes to confirm anti-gun nominations for judiciary and enforcement positions (e.g., Sotomayor, Kagan, Holder), never votes for gun grabbers for leadership positions (e.g., Pelosi Galore, The Harry Reid), never votes for the cultural terraforming and takeover of the USA through over-immigration, invasion, occupation, de facto amnesty and de jure amnesty. 
4. The NRA passive-aggressively works for the permanent destruction of the Republican party, 2A and the USA in countless ways. For example, the NRA donates millions of dollars, alongside Michael Bloomberg and Rupert Murdoch, to defeat true conservatives in the primaries and re-elect corrupt RINOs. For example, NRA donated hundreds of thousands defeating Chris McDaniel in Mississippi & re-electing corrupt RINO Thad Cochran, and trying to defeat Dave Brat & re-elect Cantor in Virginia. 
5. Bloomberg collaborator, Islamophile, open-immigration/amnesty subversive, Left-"Libertarian" phony tax reformer Grover Norquist is the darling of the NRA board of directors. 
6. The suicidal immigration policies passive-aggressive supported by the NRA and actively supported by Norquisling are in the process of causing irreversible cultural and political terraforming of the USA. Within 20 years the Dems will have permanent supermajority control of the federal government and a supermajority of the states. Enough to win every key legislative battle, nomination battle, judicial battle and enforcement battle. Enough to control all arms of government including executive, legislative, judiciary, police, "security", spy, and military. Enough to legally change the Constitution at will. So say goodbye to your guns, liberty, country, quality of life, culture, property, standard of living, etc.

Speaking of Spiritual Wickedness in High Places

 Fr. James Altman: You cannot be Catholic & a Democrat. Period. [Watch]

Brave man.

A bishop agrees (and note the hive insects trying to swarm on him, including by raising hypocritical IRS arguments their side flouts as a matter of course).

It doesn't matter if you are a Catholic or not. Forget religion and focus on the logic. The argument here is you cannot call yourself one if you reject and undermine fundamental tenets of the Church. Period.

Like "Father" James Martin does.

So naturally, the DSM is out there doing damage control to stem the introspection by mass-disseminating the deception that "Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden is well-known to be a devout Catholic..."

Sure he is.

We Have Top Men Working On It Right Now

A search of publicly available material suggests several of Surgisphere’s employees have little or no data or scientific background. An employee listed as a science editor appears to be a science fiction author and fantasy artist. Another employee listed as a marketing executive is an adult model and events hostess. [More]

Turnabout Verboten

NFL to play Black anthem before national anthem [More]
I wonder how the mob will react if an individual, be it player or fan, refuses to stand or takes a knee. Forget ruined careers: They'll be lucky to make it out of the stadium alive.

NFL?

Do any gun owners who aren't total Fudds or kapos still go to these things?

UPDATE (via Laocoön): Some much-needed perspective:

They Zap Horses, Don't They?

You know, well-heeled donors to the Opposite Day "progressive" party of animal rights, electrocuting horses in order to collect the insurance money... [More]

Nice to see aptronymic Obama functionary Bobby Schmuck copied on the discussion of whether it's safe to take campaign contributions from equicidal maniacs.

And there's plenty more DNC hypocrisy on parade, which in-the-pocket media has no intention of sharing with the useful idiots who self-limit their information intakes.

Gimme That Old Time Religion

Received via email:

 If you haven't read Jonathan Mayhew's 1750 sermon trashing the Catholic Church/Church of England dogma of unlimited submission to authority based on self-serving misinterpretation of Romans 13 etc, it's very compelling.  The American Revolution likely wouldn't have succeeded or happened without it.  Every Christian should read it today.  Over the years I've seen many so-called Protestant conservatives online parroting the unqualified obedience doctrine... OBEY. [More]

Been a while since I got into an "angels on the head of a pin" argument...

I'll need to find time to read it thoroughly. What I've seen so far pretty much agrees with a 1747 Philadelphia sermon I cite from time to time:

"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 [it]self."

Trump's Pettiness Could Be His Undoing -- and Ours



I've done my share of criticizing Jeff Sessions, specifically over the way he did not use the full power of his office during the phony smear job coup attempt. That said, Trump rubbing Tuberville in his face is pure vindictiveness, and working against Sessions works against the president's stated campaign pledges on guns (Sessions earned an "A" from GOA) and immigration (Numbers USA calls Sessions a "true reformer" based on his performance and Tuberville won't say what he'll do).

I've said before 2020 is Trump's to blow, and when I see him doing stupid sh!+ like attacking Thomas Massie and guiding his policy decisions with direction from Jared Kushner, what I see is him dousing the fire in the bellies of those who want to support him.

3-D chess my ... eye.  If he loses, I'll be madder at him than at anyone.

Breathtaking!

 “Any person with a history of a significant allergic reaction to a vaccine, medicine or food (such as previous history of anaphylactoid reaction or those who have been advised to carry an adrenaline autoinjector) should not receive the Pfizer/BioNtech vaccine. [More]

Well, I guess that leaves me out.

UPDATE: WarOnGuns Correspondent Laocoön  sent some expert testimony from Canada asserting "This is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public."

Reminds me of a saying I occasionally repeat around here...

The public suspects, at least some of us do suspect -- the same ones, by and large, who don't much see why we should believe these same people on election results.

All in the Families



If you are a California Democrat and not retarded, and this doesn't turn you against them, you are criminally complicit.

And before dismissing this as "Infowars," first examine the truthfulness of the relationship claims.

Paul Pelosi Jr. – like Hunter Biden, was given no-show jobs for which he wasn’t qualified in an effort to buy influence with his politician parent.
