There are so many new reasons why I am always armed when I venture off my secure sanctuary this is one. I live in the Soviet of Washington that has legalized all personal consumption of hard drugs. Seattle, Tacoma and the northern parts of Pugetopolis all have open drug markets, open stolen items shopping kiosks and more drug vagrants with their “camping” on public sidewalks and every park and green space than imaginable. Weird too because everyone loves the outdoors and the leftards treat it as a religion yet the left say nothing about the desecration of their “church” by the filthy drug vagrants. There’s several parks in the uber leftard areas in Seattle that cannot be used by the citizens. (They get no sympathy from me because elections have consequences)
Then you add the moronic, evil purging of prisons supposedly because of the Chinese germ warfare attack we have been subjected to, when in reality the Marxists just want chaos and who better to do it than convicts, including felons with weapons charges. Then they passed the worst police reform bill in America and finally this last session out of desperation because they too see what’s coming, here in November, more gun control laws on the honest citizens.
We have just shy, by this much 🤏of 1,000,000 concealed carry permit holders in this state and we are a Constitutional Open Carry state since the beginning. Most of the new gun owners in this state and probably yours too, are women and young families who have lost faith in the government to protect themselves.
They see everything this group of grifters politicians are doing to public safety, the parks and outdoors areas that makes this state one if not the most beautiful state in America. Our idiot governor is in competition with governor nephew in Kalifornia and Katie Lezbo Brown in Oregon to see who can attract the most drug vagrants and criminals into their state. We’re probably second only because Kalifornia has better weather.
The dimocRAT party OWNS every last bit of this. We have not had a Republican governor in over 40 years and the reprobate dimocRAT’s have had a supermajority in both state houses for four years. That all changes in November and even the most obtuse dimocRAT sees it coming.
I guess what I’m trying to say, is keep your head up, organize your neighbors not just only politically but strategically too. Convince everyone in your circle of influence to vote for Liberty and Freedom, make sure they vote even if you have to help them by driving them to the polls or whatever it takes. Lastly follow the instructions on my tagline, please. We love most of my Freeper family.
Roger that!
The other day in my NextDoor app a blind lady (with a blind husband) complained bitterly that the homeless had blocked the sidewalk in front of the bus stop where she exits to go home -she said her husband had to step into the street and was almost hit by a car. (this is in California where the homeless have far more rights than citizens, handicapped or not).
She asked the homeless to not block the sidewalk and they flat-out refused.
She had called the 311 number repeatedly for weeks - to no avail - and reached out to the local pols - also without result.
She was at her wit’s end and didn’t know what to do - she said she couldn’t afford über or another private car system and the bus is what she and her husband knew and knew how to use to get around.
There were people in the comments section, of course, telling her she needed to have more “compassion” for people down on their luck. It is absolutely infuriating.
In the old days - men like my late dad, would have gone out there with a few other men and cleared out that sidewalk and made damn sure it was cleared out permanently.
