Christmas 2014: All I Want Is Peace On Earth, Goodwill Towards Man And A Machine Gun
Townhall.com ^ | December 7, 2014 | Doug Giles

Posted on 12/07/2014 5:21:02 AM PST by Kaslin

I can’t imagine living in Ferguson or any of the other hot spots where the massive protests/riots are going down. Especially, if I had a family. And double especially if I was a single mom with kids. Good grief. I can’t fathom the fears that smack must spawn in the noggin of the concerned parent.

Yep, if I dwelt in any one of those locales, with my family, I’d be so on edge regarding the well-being of my brood I’d make Scott Stapp look like a chillaxed Gandhi smoking some strong ganja.

Look, wherever one comes down on the Ferguson issues, if you’re honest and you live in close proximity to that mayhem, you’ve gotta feel more vulnerable than a teenage girl being babysat by Lena Dunham, because the present mobs are three bubbles off-level and they’re indiscriminately breaking and burning crap and injuring innocent people.

Indeed, across this nation, not only in Ferguson, the fever pitch is hot and I don’t foresee this dying down anytime soon, especially when you have the likes of de Blasio and Oblasio passive-aggressively stoking this stuff with lies, half-truths and innuendo to the easily influenced, low-intel vandals who have way too much time on their hands.

So what does the concerned parent do?

Well, given that it's Christmas time, I’d ask Santa for three things, namely: peace on earth, goodwill towards man and a machine gun.

Now, parent, say for some reason Santa doesn't get your email or text or he doesn’t exist like some doubters claim, then I would do the following until peace on earth and goodwill towards man occurs:

Pony up the cash and get a gun or guns. It’s your job parent to protect your household. Period.

Get stacks of ammo (remember your gun is useless without ammunition).

Become crazily proficient with said weapon or weapons. Give the gift of burning lead at the range and hiring an expert to show you the ropes.

Make sure your sane and responsible offspring knows how to wield them effectively as well.

I’d seriously consider doing whatever it takes to physically remove your family from nutters who’ve got no problem whatsoever burning your house, or business, or car, or body down to the ground because some stooge like Al Sharpton told them to.

Yes, I know what I just advised costs a lot of cash in an abysmal Obama-economy and that moving is a pain-in-the-ass; but hey … such is life. God never said it was going to be easy and common sense dictates to the parent who’s worth their salt that protection is part of their job description. So get equipped.

Speaking of protection, my youngest daughter, Regis Giles, creator and owner of GirlsJustWannaHaveGuns.com, has just signed on to narrate and star in a new documentary, produced by the folks who brought us such great films as Hating Breitbart and UnFair: Exposing The IRS, encouraging women worldwide to become proficient in self-defense and be victims no mas. You can check it out here.

Merry Christmas.

I wonder if Mr. Giles knows how difficult it is for an ordinary citizen to obtain a machine gun. Low level peons, such as myself, have to settle for semi autos and revolvers.

“Massive protest/riots”? Are nothing more than what the media is hoping to create with all their hype.

Santa should bring a Glock instead. It is all that is needed.

In keeping with the Christmas season I suggest downloading your Glock 21 mags to twelve rounds.

“On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love gave to me - 12 rounds of HP ACP.”

My concern has typically been dealing with the threat of fire.
One can be armed, yet if the mob is big enough and the molotov cocktails are flying...that is a problem. Fires can leap building-to-building if the construction is sufficiently close together.
Further compounding the issue is that many homeowner insurance policies will not provide coverage if damage is due to warfare, civil unrest, riot, etc.

A reasonable step might be to flee a home for safer locales. At the same time...if one loses their home, their possessions, and everything they have toiled so hard to earn over the decades, it is not much of a life either. It is essentially starting from scratch again.

These kinds of threats call for tough decisions.
I definitely feel bad for anyone caught right in the midst of it. They must be feeling tremendous levels of concern for life and safety.

Same for me here in Montana. But I kinda wish some of this nonsense was just a little closer.

I’d like to do my part putting an end to it.

I was thinking a little further back than that...to 1934 to be exact.

Getting a Class 3 weapon isn’t really all that hard. I known several folks that have done it in less than a year.

Yabut .. '34 affected about 3% of the population ... the GCA68 affects about 30% of the population (a guess on the percentage)

I am one of about a third of my friends that are affected by this criminal law.

full auto isn’t all its cracked up to be anyway. Even the pros with full auto usually choose a 3 round burst. To hard to control full auto - the muzzle progressively rises and most people would resort to pray and spray, a waste of ammo.

Any type AR on semi auto is more than enough to get the job done.
