Grooming, or not?

We keep hearing from the left that children are not being groomed by them into becoming obedient little sex slaves. Anyone who believes this is happening, we are told, is a sign that you are a bigoted, hateful transphobe. Then we see things like this:

Oklahoma State University hosts ‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ for kids as young as 2-years-old.

It doesn’t stop there. The Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle announced it will host a week-long summer camp titled “Drag-tastic Summer Camp: The Art of Drag,” slated to take place on August 8–12. During this camp, children ages 2 through 10 will learn about drag history and work together with local artists to make themselves into drag queens. These children will choose a drag name, learn hair and makeup techniques, and develop their own stage presence as drag queens. At the end of the camp, these children will put on a drag show for adults to watch.

What kind of sick fucking shit is this? How can anyone see this and not immediately recognize it for what it is? They are coaching children from two years old to become tranny porn stars. When is it time for us to say that we have had enough?

Bad Tactics

A guy is following your wife home. She calls to have you wait outside for her arrival. If you stand in front of the guy’s car with your phone out, he will run your ass over, breaking your back before driving away.

Or you can be out front with a weapon (open carry is legal on your own property) like an AR308, which will punch through that little shitbox of a car. All I know is that I wouldn’t be lying in a hospital, disabled.

Antigun Republican

Florida’s District 28 contains Winter Springs and Oviedo. Your state Representative is Davis Smith, a Republican. He is also opposed to open carry.

Open carry is publicly wearing a sidearm wherever you want in the state. … And there are some states that have it. I don’t believe open carry is right for Florida. Why? Because those European tourists spend, you know, seven times as much…South American tourists spend four times as much as American.

Our economy…does everybody like not having an income tax in Florida? Yeah. So we have a sales tax and our economy is tourism. And cultures that don’t grow up with guns, don’t have the NRA and gun safety…The NRA is the single largest gun safety organization in the United States. That’s why I’m a life member of the NRA.

And so, for business reasons, I don’t think that open carry is right for Florida. Constitutional carry, or permitless carry, is different and I’ll tell you, I’m undecided on the issue. I’m open, and if the bill gets filed and we’re gonna hear it, you’re welcome to come talk to me and lobby….

Just because the Democrats are your enemy doesn’t make Republicans your friend.

The Clock is Ticking

So now that I have had a chance to review the new ATF gun grab, I can say that I anticipated much of what was in there. However, there is one part that I must admit not being adequately equipped for. Upper receivers are now considered to be firearms, as are 80 percent lowers. This creates a national problem for the USA, as well as a personal problem for me.

Since uppers are now firearms, and any unserialized firearm that comes into the possession of any FFL must be serialized, this is going to be a big problem. Unless an FFL holder is an 07 (manufacturer), it looks like the serial number has to come from the ATF itself. This will cause every handgun slide and every AR upper to be serialized (registered) with an ATF provided serial number. This sets up a nationwide firearm registry.

If I am correct about this, this creates a real problem for every gun owner in the country. This kind of registration has only one purpose: confiscation.

Now I anticipated 80 percent lowers becoming firearms. The uppers, I did not. Over the past year, I have managed to amass a good number of 80 percent lowers and stripped uppers of the AR15, Glock 19, and the AR308 varieties. A <classified> number of them have already been converted into firearms. Due to supply chain issues, what I have is a mismatch between the number of uppers and the number of lowers. Some of that has been corrected, but I am stuck on others. I need a few Glock uppers (slide assemblies), and a small number of AR308 uppers. I can’t find bargains right now on either one. They are all out of stock or so expensive that I just can’t justify it.

The clock is ticking. I have just a few weeks to secure what I need, create the firearms, and cache them before it becomes a crime.

Not Censorship?

Many on the left are in an uproar because parents in Florida now have a right to know what books are being used in schools, and can have inappropriate books removed from the school library.

When I was a high school biology teacher, my school had selected and used the Glencoe Biology textbook. Did that mean my school district was censoring and violating the free speech of other publishers? Of course not.

So the fact that the state has rejected large numbers of textbooks because they are inappropriate doesn’t mean that the publishers are being silenced. They are free to print all of the books they want. Florida schools just aren’t buying them, and that isn’t censorship.

So back to the complaints of censorship from the left. They complain that books like The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison are being “banned.” Read this passage from the book, and you will know why. The following passage describes a father raping his daughter:

The confused mixture of his memories of Pauline and the doing of a wild and forbidden thing excited him, and a bolt of desire ran down his genitals, giving it length, and softening the lips of his anus. Surrounding all of this lust was a border of politeness. He wanted to fuck her – tenderly. But the tenderness would not hold. The tightness of her vagina was more than he could bear. His soul seemed to slip down to his guts and fly out into her, and the gigantic thrust he made into her then provoked the only sound she made – a hollow suck of air in the back of her throat. Like the rapid loss of air from a circus balloon. Following the disintegration – the falling away – of sexual desire, he was conscious of her wet, soapy hands on his wrists, the fingers clenching, but whether her grip was from a hopeless but stubborn struggle to be free, or from some other emotion, he could not tell. Removing himself from her was so painful to him he cut it short and snatched his genitals out of the dry harbor of her vagina.

Like the last “banned” book I reviewed, “Lawn Boy,” this book is not appropriate for any school to have in its library. I’m not saying that the book should be outlawed. I’m saying that schools shouldn’t use tax dollars to make it available for children. I don’t care how many Nobel literature prizes the author has gotten.

Medical Stuff

In yesterday’s post on the MSM, I touched on the use of Ketamine. The first I heard of it was about 20 years ago when Ketamine made the news as a date rape drug. A couple of years later, we started using it in our EMS system.

I found that Ketamine is a useful drug for conscious sedation (for short painful procedures, like pacing or extrication) where pain needs to be controlled but the patient remains conscious, with the airway intact. It’s also very useful for intubations where you don’t need to make the patient unconscious.

Ketamine doesn’t have much of an effect on blood pressure, heart rate, or respiratory drive.

Seriously, Ketamine is one of my go to drugs for a wide range of patients.

Fact Checking the MSM

They don’t get anything right. I guess they assume that all of their readers are ignorant. From this article:

They found over a pound of ketamine, also known as “Special K.” It is used as an opioid.

Ketamine isn’t an opioid. Not even close. I’ve given it to dozens of people. I have given opioids to hundreds, if not thousands, of patients. Not the same. So you can ignore this part, too.

“The term ghost guns can be misleading because it implies that they are not traceable and can’t be tracked or serialized which isn’t the case,” he said.

Then why has the left and the MSM (redundancy alert) gotten their tits in a knot over them?
