Anti American left

Good

Colorado has proposed SB25-003, a law which would ban the manufacture, distribution, transfer, sale, and purchase of any semiautomatic firearm that has a detachable magazine, with the exception of .22 rimfire. First offense would be a misdemeanor, second offense a felony.

Exempt from this law is the government, colleges, and armed security guards that work for companies operating armored vehicles.

It also appears to establish a requirement to have a firearms license with required training that expires every 5 years and must be taught by a sheriff department approved instructor.

I hope this passes. This is so blatantly unconstitutional that there is no way it makes it through the courts.

Mindless

Here is what the left has to say about Europe, Russia, and Ukraine:

1. Europe Calls Putin’s Bluff

  • Macron and Scholz, backed by Poland, the Baltics, and Finland, make a historic decision: “Withdraw from Ukraine or we’re moving in.”
  • European forces begin massing in Poland, Finland, the Baltics, and Romania—fully armed, fully mobilized.
  • Putin shits his pants. But, of course, he threatens nukes, because that’s the only card he has left.
  • Europe responds: “Our nukes are locked and loaded, motherfucker.”
  • France and the UK together have around 500+ modern nuclear warheads, and their delivery systems outmatch Russia’s aging Soviet-era bullshit.
  • Reality check: Russia’s nukes? Aging, unstable, and probably not even fully functional. Meanwhile, Europe’s nukes are modern, precise, and READY.
  • Before Russia could even launch a full-scale attack, Moscow, St. Petersburg, and every major Russian military hub could be vaporized.

2. Putin Realizes He’s Cornered

  • Unlike dealing with the U.S., Putin suddenly faces an enemy that doesn’t give a fuck about “red lines.”
  • He tries to call China. China says: “Nah, we’re good.”
  • He turns to his generals. Some of them start looking for an escape plan.

3. What Happens in the U.S.?

  • MAGA Still Thinks It’s a ‘Liberal Hoax’
  • MAGA will believe whatever Trump tells them, and Trump will say: “Europe is acting reckless. We need to stay out of this. Russia’s not our problem.”
  • Fox News and right-wing media will blame Europe and call it a “deep state” NATO conspiracy.
  • Some MAGA morons will actually cheer for Putin.
  • The Military and Security Establishment Lose Their Shit
  • The Pentagon, CIA, and U.S. Generals will PANIC.
  • Because if Europe goes in and wins, it proves that they never needed the U.S. in the first place.
  • Europe goes in and nukes start flying
  • The U.S. gets dragged into WWIII no matter what Trump says.
  • Wall Street and the Economy Freak the Fuck Out
  • Markets CRASH.
  • Oil prices SKYROCKET.
  • The dollar tanks because nobody trusts the U.S. anymore.
  • Europe starts looking at China for financial stability.
  • The American Public Finally Wakes Up
  • Millions of Americans will realize that their country has become a joke on the global stage.
  • Anti-Trump protests erupt.
  • Independents and moderates start turning against him, realizing they’ve been gaslit by his “America First” bullshit.

So that is what the leftists who are analyzing this think is going to happen- they believe that Russian nuclear weapons are not going to work, and that Europe is going to win any nuclear war that happens, and once it is over, the US military and US people will turn on Trump and depose him. They are delusional.

All Show, No Go

Check out this Trantifa warrior. LOL

No spare magazines. I guess the plate carrier is too heavy if there is actually a plate in it. The little plastic condom is still on the charging handle. My guess is that the only equipment that this thing uses on a regular basis is the megaphone and the radio.

Rules For Radicals

Let me start this post with a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon from 1988.

Have you ever played Monopoly? What if one of the people who is in the game is also the banker, and you know that he or she is giving themselves interest free loans from that bank? Would you do as Hobbes did and fight back, or would you simply refuse to stoop to their level and maintain your principles?

Participating in today’s society is a lot like that. The left has no principles or morals whatsoever, as long as they win. They define a win as imposing their will and desires upon others. That’s it- all that matters is that they impose their desires and will upon you. If you refuse to play- they win. If you stick to your principles and refuse to fight back- they win.

Every society in history that has fallen has done so because they refuse to stoop to the level of those who would destroy them. Sure, they call them names- things like barbarian, heathens, whatever the label, but those who refuse to play by any rules are the ones who win by the only rule that matters- winning. Vince Lombardi is credited with saying “Winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing,” and there is a lot of validity to that.

In Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals,” Alinsky lays out ten rules for defeating an enemy in the political arena. One of these is “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” That’s what the left does- this is why you see them quoting the bible and screaming that you aren’t being a good Christian whenever you say that you don’t want the government to care for an unlimited amount of illegals, or see your tax dollars spent on poor transgenders in Somalia. They are trying to shame you for abandoning your ideals, they are using your own morals as weapons against you.

That’s why the left hates Trump as much as they do, and why they are willing to get along with others on the right. Many on the right do one of two things- they cave in to the left’s desires, or they stick to their ideals. In other words, they accept defeat. Trump doesn’t do that, because his overwhelming personality trait is to win. That is all that matters to him, winning.

I recently posted about Stephen Smith making racist, self loathing remarks. The response was that we shouldn’t care what he says. I disagree. Using the left’s own tactics against them would be to hold them to their own rules- if anyone on the left makes a racist remark- you hammer them for it. Ridicule them, for that falls under another of Alinsky’s rules: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. There is no defense. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.”

Let’s do to them what they are attempting to do to us. Hammer home the advantage, press the attack. No respite, no quarter. Winning the battle of ideas is easier and less costly than having to go out and kill one another in actual battle.

Keep up the fight.

Racism of the Left

Leftist pundit Stephen Smith on Trump:

“The way that the Trump administration is handling it—’we want the most qualified, we want the smartest’—what you’re really saying is we want White dominance again. That’s what you’re really saying. You want White dominance!”

Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to be a racist if you aren’t white. In this case, Smith is racist against his own race. This type of self loathing is the end result of decades of Democrat policies telling blacks that they can’t possibly make it unless they are given an affirmative action boost.

Also in the same clip, Chuckie Schumer has the audacity to call out President Trump:

“For [the President of the United States] to throw out idle speculation while bodies are still being recovered and families still being notified.”

Like you and your party have done after EVERY SINGLE MASS SHOOTING over the past three decades? Ass.

Caetano v. Massachusetts

The next time some brain dead moron tries saying that the Second Amendment only applies to muskets, please refer them to Caetano v. Massachusetts 577 U.S. 411 (2016). In that case, the US Supreme court held 9-0 that the Second Amendment applies to all bearable arms, not just those that were in existence at the time that the Second Amendment was ratified.

In that case, the Massachusetts Supreme court had ruled that stun guns are not protected [by the Second Amendment] because they “were not in common use at the time of the Second Amendment’s enactment,” that stun guns are “dangerous per se at common law and unusual,” and that “nothing in the record to suggest that [stun guns] are readily adaptable to use in the military.” 

The U.S. Supreme Court, per curiam, vacated, reiterating that “the Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the founding,” and that it has rejected the proposition “that only those weapons useful in warfare are protected.”

This line of argument will eventually be the one that kills both the NFA and the GCA.

I am the law!

Oklahoma Senator Regina Goodwin famously demanded that Trump be “locked up” because no one is above the law.

So it comes as no surprise that she refused to show her driver’s license when she was pulled over for running several stop signs, escalating the traffic stop into a shouting match, simultaneously proving that she believes herself to be above the law, and disproving the claim that all cops are just looking for a reason to shoot black people.

If it weren’t for double standards, the left would have no standards at all.

Good, GTFO

Every winter, Florida gets overrun by rich assholes who flock to our state – people who own multiple homes and want to dodge the shitty cold weather from more northern climates. They bring with them their northern political opinions and attitudes. States like Pennsylvania, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, and Ohio as well as the nation of Canada send us millions of old, rich assholes that force our cost of living higher, fill our hospitals, and make it impossible to get into a restaurant without waiting an hour or more for a table. The regale us with tales about how they “do things up north” and tell us how backwards we are down here for the way that we like to live our lives.

It seems that the Canadian Dollar weakening in relation to the US Dollar, and combined with increasing costs of living in Florida, this is causing Canadians to sell their property and go home. Good. GTFO and stop pushing Florida towards being the socialist shithole that Canada has become.

The asshole in this story, a man by the name of Jasmin Gosselin (what man is named after a Disney Princess?) is saying that the financial burdens of living in Florida has combined with Trump being an asshole is making him move back to Canada. Really? It’s Trump’s fault? Then why didn’t you leave in 2017?

“Trump doesn’t respect snowbirds who spend their money during four, five months in Florida. We feed their economy and he doesn’t respect us.” 

What’s really going on is now that Canada’s money isn’t doing as well, he can no longer afford to take advantage of Floridians and is now returning to his home. Good, GTFO. We don’t want you here. Our emergency room sees twice as many patients during the winter, and more than 80% of the excess patient load are people over the age of 70 who don’t live in Florida full time. You aren’t really helping the economy- you are taking advantage of it.

The story claims that he has been living each of the last 20 winters in Boynton Beach. Snowbirds are killing the economy there. The average cost of a new home in Boynton Beach is about $360k, but the average income there is only $66k. Even with the low salary, Boynton Beach is considered one of Florida’s most affluent zip codes. Why? Snowbirds buying up all of the beachfront property and causing housing prices to rise. While Florida’s cost of living is 3% lower than the national average, the cost of living in Boynton Beach is 10% more than the national average.

Snowbirds don’t help the local economy- they destroy it. Their throwing around money from outside of the state for 4 months of the year raises prices and puts a strain on local resources. Then they leave for the summer, but the high prices remain. The employees who are hired to work in the businesses that support the snowbirds need jobs for the other 8 months of the year, but the money to support them isn’t there.

No, GTFO and go back to where you came from. Interstate 95 runs north as well as south. Take your leftist politics, a friend or two, and your illegal immigrant housekeeper with you when you go.
