In the Bataclan Theatre Massacre, there were 8 off duty police, but none of them had their guns.

Interview with Eagles of Death Metal vocalist Jesse Hughes, who discussed the Bataclan attack in Paris that killed 89 of his fans.

We had eight police officers in our audience that night. They all had the same conversation with their wives, which was “Should I bring my gun or not?” All of them said no. When we went back and played Paris again they stood in the same places they stood at the original show and they opened their jackets and showed me their guns as if to say, “Not tonight, motherfucker.” It was beautiful. . . .

This is why depending on the govt for security is a bad idea. Like San Jose you never know if theyll actually provide any protection exc for perhaps themselves alone.

Why the left wants to disarm the honest, law-abiding non-violent citizens and leave guns in the hands of violent criminals.

A real policeman always carries, on duty or off. They couldn’t have been real policemen.

Self-Reliance-—what the American ideal has always been about and the Natural Duties that entail actions. With Natural Rights comes the Natural Duties-—which encompass taking care of ALL your biological offspring (and committing to future existence).

We are destroying self-reliance in our children by putting them into a system of indoctrination (group think, dependency embedded systems, only) and “watching” screens where they never master Real Life skills and literally stunt the brain—destroy integration of the left/right sides, where they can acquire Excellence.

True self-reliance-—always “controlled” in artificial environments away from the Natural family paradigm, so they will be easily warped (and brainwashed/ all emotions/desires can be unnatural, directed towards the irrational like Slavery is Freedom, Up is Down and Boys are Girls (pure Marxism embedded).

Natural Rights from God are not negotiable—EVER.

You can’t depend or believe in any person, just God (Jesus Christ)...and the Founders fully understood that ALL government is Evil and that is why it is to be extremely LIMITED and CONTROLLED by the individuals who HAVE to retain their INDIVIDUAL Natural Rights from God (unalienable-—can’t give them away).

We understand this-—and all these unconstitutional rules and regulations are “Null and Void” (enslave us), as Justice Marshall reassured the people——that ANY LAW that is antithetical to the Supreme Law of the Land-—(like income tax/where Virtue is punished and Vice rewarded)-—is unconstitutional and we and the judges have a DUTY to declare it so, and disobey unjust laws, as Nuremberg Trials and MLK, Jr. reiterated.

Rights are granted from the Christian God only-—no other and are UNALIENABLE. Our Natural Rights (the whole Theory which is embedded in our Rule of Law (Higher Laws) can NEVER be infringed upon.

(But the evil, psychopathic sodomites have flipped our “Justice” System to a Vice System of slavery.

Our “legal” system is an utter irrational JOKE, today (evil Justice Holmes took “Virtue” out of “Justice” a hundred years ago)...

..removed Just Law from Right Reason (truth/logic/science) and Natural Laws ( (science) foundation of Lockean philosophy of Natural Rights/private property rights/Laws of Nature and nature’s God)....and it is totally unconstitutional.

We need to teach Truth to children again and embed self-reliance/Truth/Reason (Classical Christian curricula only embeds the ability to be critical thinkers (truly human) and able to discern Good and Evil (true Wisdom/Cicero).

The schools and MSM blur Truth and destroy moral formation in young children if you allow them to embed their ethics (Marxist, Satanic worldview where people sodomizing others and killing their own genetic offspring is “Good” and “Natural”-—like in satanic Ba’al Rites.)

Correct. Women continue to treat their subjective "comfort level" as an organ of cognition. That is a reliance on innate female psychology that MUST be suppressed.

Conservatives led the way in the United States... defending the people's right to protect themselves.. now it's spreading to the world.

Thank God for John Lott and the NRA.

My daughter in law, who used to live next door, called me to tell me a man came to her door wanting to use her phone. (At night, we live in the country). She wouldn’t let him in (smart) and told me he was headed to my house.

What was my first reaction? Put on the tea kettle? Open my front door? NO, it was to go get my, already loaded, 12 gauge shotgun.

While I did offer to make the call for him, he insisted that he need to make the call himself. At which point I advised him to leave, he didn’t. I told him to listen, then I racked my shotgun. I said, “did you hear that? I’m calling the police now”. He left.

I don’t know about Paris, but the Police Metropolitan in Nice carry revolvers that are probably .38 or maybe .357, with lanyards. I always get a chuckle out of it, but then I think “man, these poor saps are seriously under-armed if something goes down. I’m better armed (when in USA) than they are.”

The Police Nationale carry Sigs, I’m guessing in 9mm. You see them around, too.

We were there a few weeks ago, and I saw a French Army infantry fireteam (4 men) in full battle rattle, body armor and FAMAS rifles, wandering around near Place Massena (!).

Just about everyone should carry a knife at all times unless legally prohibited, and sometimes even then. Just about everyone should be permitted to carry concealed weapons, including firearms, and should do so most of the time.

There’s nothing wrong with a .357

I’d be happy to have one if the SHTF, with a few speedloaders.
