Outing the Gun Owners and the Left's New Savagery
American Thinker ^ | January 4, 2013 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 01/05/2013 8:14:36 AM PST by neverdem

As Michael Walsh noted last week at PJ Media, the Westchester Journal News has published the name and addresses of legal gun owners in Westchester County, New York...

--snip--

A Leftist journalist named Nathan Lean, the editor-in-chief of Aslan Media, who has been published in the Los Angeles Times, Washington Post and New York Daily News, has sent me several tweets and emails containing personal information about myself: where he thinks I live, who he thinks my wife is, and more.

The purpose of these messages was unmistakable: Lean was signaling to me that he thought he knew my whereabouts (and that of my family), despite my attempts to conceal them because of the many death threats I receive. And why would he want me to think that he knew where I was? So that I would be frightened into silence, afraid that one of his many violence-inclined allies might do me in if I continued to speak out for freedom and human rights. Yet despite his appetite for menace, Lean had no trouble getting published in flagship mainstream media outlets -- which tells you a great deal about them.

In the 1930s, when the National Socialist German Worker's Party, aka the Nazi Party, was consolidating its power in Germany, its storm troopers regularly terrorized its opponents: showing up when they spoke to shout them down and intimidate them, vandalizing their messages, and sometimes attacking them outright. We are rapidly approaching the same situation in America today, as the Left's demonization of its opponents descends to this menacing new level.

The Westchester Journal News does not have the moral high ground, and never did. Any doubt about that was removed when it published the addresses of the gun owners. But soon thuggish demonstrators outside the homes of those gun owners...

Liberals view themselves as moral and intellectual superiors and therefore entitled to dictate to and control the "feral savages".

These are self-righteous people who believe that the ends justifies the means, hence their viscious tactics against all things conservative are justifiable in their own distored minds.

One of the most perfect descriptions of the liberal attitude I have ever read.

As long as they’re dry & cool, they’ll store for many, many, many years wo/ corroding. If you can get some packs of Silica Gel (don’t eat!) to drop inside the ammo cans, all the better.

Once upon a time, political opponents could agree to disagree, then go out for a beer together after the vote. They all had the same goal, just different ways to approach it.

Those days are decidedly gone.

We are at war. The two sides are so far apart, and so committed to their way of thinking, that this cannot possibly end well.

Of course, once upon a time we all accepted the Constitution as the baseline for all political discussions in America. Those days are gone, too.

Hey Steely its not G-d.Its G O D. Why you treat it like most do cuss words here?

Because I'm not comfortable typing it, for reasons I can't really articulate.

I don't know how "most do cuss words here." I thought most people write them as *%$^# or some such.

Where does Nathan Lean live? We should know that. A good place to start is property records which are public and free in most counties.

When confronted with a similar comment from a scum bag I was investigating one time my comment to him was: bring six people with you because you will go out of here feet first. Please don’t back down or show weakness to any vermin.

Orthodox Jews do not write out the whole Name out of reverence - not in Hebrew, and not in English.

Read about it YHWH.

Hope that helps. Try to ask a little nicer, huh?

I dare them to start protesting in front of my home.

Get a laser pointer, preferably red, and from behind your curtain, place the dot on the protestor's chest.

They threaten, you reply in a "non-violent" manner.

I don’t see the big deal. I don’t care if people know I own a gun - criminals will leave me alone and go after my neighbors instead. As for a lefty approaching me - he does it at his own risk. I see no down side.

What they should be deathly afraid of is when the “Civilized” population sets aside that facade and unleashes the wolverine that has been leashed.

Therein lies the issue ... 'civilized' (i.e. conservatives) turn the other cheek, then turn it the other way, then turn it back again. Boehner "negotiating" with Obama is a great example. Wimpy legislators letting Leftists have an inch on gun control and then watching them take the proverbial mile is another. This cr@p with the newspaper publishing info on legal gunowners, even if public info, should be slapped down and hard. Protests in front of gunowner homes? Hell no ... it should be the other way around. Two quotes ... and yes, it's time for some ball ripping and if that doesn't work, the Leftists will continue to push until bullets will likely be next:

"Son, you don't poke a wolverine with a sharp stick unless you want your balls ripped off." -- Grandpa Vanderboegh.

"You see, truth always resides where brave men have ammunition. I pick truth." (John Ransom)

Wasp spray (the CRC stuff anyway) hurts like hell in the eyes, never had the pleasure of pepper spray.

That is a TERRIFIC graphic! Not sure if you found it somewhere or if you photoshopped it yourself.

If the latter, respectfully request you perhaps consider adding two Muslim organizations at the bottom, down there with NAACP: CAIR (Council on American Islamic Relations) and ISNA ( Islamic Society of North America), as they are very much part of the “network.”

Again, thank you (either way).

With four more years of Obama coming, there is no stopping them now.

And yet, they MUST be stopped. Dark clouds on the horizon.

This is so Naziesque. It’s really important to our rulers that our guns be taken. They will do it any way they can. Intimadation seems to be their first plan.

Winning the argument doesn’t work anymore.

>>>I don’t know how “most do cuss words here.” I thought most people write them as *%$^# or some such.<<<

You’re right. One of the reasons Free Republic remains a place I like to go to is the relative absence of commonly written vulgarisms. Not that I’m a prude; I have tossed a few F bombs around with the best of them. However, it’s nice to have intelligent discussion in which people actually use adjectives and adverbs that have nothing to do with excretory or sexual function or questionable parentage. Or all three.

I can also respect you typing “G-d” as you do. I’m Jewish, and those of us I know about who are faithful are asked not to mention the name of the creator - and your wording is quite like their own.

I sometime act in the role of grammar police - I’m a high school English teacher in my real life - but how you worship and express it is your business alone.

If someone wants vulgarisms and swear words, pop into any liberal website like the Daily Kos or the Democrat Underground. It’s excruciatingly dull with the constant repetition of swear words, as well as demonstrating a lack of intelligence. IMHO

I saw an interesting phrase today, in a source I don't normally read: "Right now the resistance is a saturated solution, waiting to crystallize around an incident."

Where do you think the criminals acquire their guns.... from the local Wally-world or pawn shop?

So.... unless you tote them around with you or stay at home 24/7, you are now a mark.

How’s that for a downside?

Wake up America.
