So the New York Times now thinks the truth is actually some code word. Hey progressive idiots. They are not code words. They are the factual truth. We have numerous examples from history of normal governments morphing because of one tyrannical individual that gets control of the top executive position (Chavez, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Morsi, etc.). In each of these cases a somewhat benign government was quickly transformed into a tyrannical government oppressing its people. And guess what is usually the very first thing that happened in these countries ? The local MSM ignored the tyrannical movement and actually encouraged the tyrannical movement.

People should ask thenselves “What is the only conceivable use for a registry of guns” if it is not to locate them for subsequent confiscation?

Blacks and Hispanics commit more than 75% of the gun murders in America.

On a per capita basis, white people in Switzerland actually commit more gun murders than white Americans.

It has become common place in my county for agency meetings to include armed fish and game wardens around the walls. Fifth generation ranchers Doug and Gail Jenner can speak to the armed federal agent and state game warden complete with flack jacket who visited their home and read them their rights. Purpose? They were investigating a complaint that their irrigation had resulted in some dead endangered coho salmon.

Or three generations of Carver women ranchers who were visited by two armed fish and game wardens to coerce them into signing up for an “incidental take” permit for salmon which would have signed away their water rights.

Armed citizens are not as easily intimidated as those who have been stripped of their means to defend their families and their homes from a tyrannical bureaucracy.

The Democrats, the Obama Administration and the Brown Administration have gone too far in forcing policies and regulations down our gullets without our consent. Half of the country does not agree with the vision of the other half. That does not give the winning half the license to use force to destroy the lifestyle, values, families, communities and property of the other on a national or statewide scale. Nor does it give them license to introduce vicious predators into their communities on one hand, while taking away their rights and abilities to defend themselves on the other.

As the ghouls swoop in on Blow’s infamatory rhetoric promoted by The New York Times with directionless rebuttal or meaningless responses laughed at by its staffers .

Not one word will be there about Blow’s mindless contribution to the solution which ignores the gangland murders and shootings using illegaly obtained mostly handguns and revolvers not “assault” weapons .

Blow certainly can’t critique a system created by his ilk and ignored by his publication that when once caught, perps get set free with lenient sentencing from “liberal” judges or sob sister plea bargain prosecution promoted by The New York Times. There’s certainly no criticism of “no snitch” mentality partcularly in areas where these shootings are rampant.

What do you expect an honest look at the problem from The New York Times ? They’re incapable that’s why they’re going broke...Printing tripe from people like C.M.Blow

You’re just on fire of late.

That Solzhenitsyn quote has been on my FR profile page for several years.

The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.

I hope the “rhetoric” gets ratcheted even higher. To the point that control freak leftists pee their pants.

Dear C em Blow
Didn’t members of your race threaten to kill whites if Obama lost? ... and what was your position on their opinion?

If we demanded multiple “acceptable” answers be given prior to abortions, gay marriage, or medical marijuana use the ACLU would be going nuts and these leftist would have a well organized march on DC.

History repeats.

Our revolutionary era commissioners in Europe, among them John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Jay, were astounded at the grinding poverty of the masses and the wealth of the nobles. That the princes feared the peasants was evident by their heavily armed security entourages. Government buildings were also stoutly defended by muskets with bayonets fixed.

They were relieved that in our fledgling republics, where the people were sovereign, and government was servant and not master, the specter of standing armies to protect the government was an irrelevant impossibility.

In the 1970s I saw much the same in various Navy liberty ports in Europe; soldiers always posted at various points throughout the cities. I thanked God that would never happen in America.

Now, in my tiny county in north Florida, (population 15,000) I must go through a metal detector manned by an armed deputy to enter the courthouse. To enter the county commissioners meeting room within the courthouse, I must do the same; empty pockets and submit to a search.

I refuse to fly on an airline for the same reason I will not again enter my county courthouse; I am not a criminal, I am not dangerous and refuse to conduct myself as if I were.

I don't think the ruling class understands they are fast losing all legitimacy. When that happens, order can only be maintained by pure force, and not reason.

They will never take my guns.
