I was recently triggered by an article (linked by Insty) which contained this little gem:
Here’s the actual bullshit, in its entirety:
“We stand in solidarity with the Red Guards and principally Maoist collectives who are working towards the creation of the Maoist Party. We stand in solidarity with Maoist parties across the world who are committed to building socialism and fighting revisionism through People’s War!
“What needs to be done is the concentric construction of the three weapons of revolution: the Maoist Party, the Maoist People’s Army, and the Maoist United Front. What needs to be done is to militarize the masses and all the pre-Party Maoist formations!
“We must prepare today, yesterday and tomorrow for the prolong confrontation, the protracted war, against the capitalist state. We must carry out military actions against the enemies of the people!”
Ummm when I said I was “triggered”, that doesn’t mean I was offended or whatever the snowflakes normally mean. What happened is that I burst into great shouts of laughter which frightened the neighbor’s cat off the fence.
Listen, you little Maoist pricks: do you know that the “masses”, as you call them (about a hundred million people), are already pretty militarized? More to the point is that when you start carrying out “military actions against the enemies of the people”, tens of millions of your “enemies” will probably shout in a single voice: “The day has come, hallelujah! It’s Zombie Killin’ Time!” whereupon you sorry little bunch of insects are going to see exactly what “violence” means.
Do you actually have any idea what kind of whirlwind you pathetic Commies are going to reap? Do you have any idea how many goobers (like me) have been just waiting to settle that old argument once and for all? (The old argument being: “which would be more effective in killing Commies: the AR-15 or AK-47?”)
The problem is that you Communist tools are still stuck in the past, when the peasants were unarmed and only a few of the “vanguard” were necessary to terrorize the population (with the help of the army). Now, however, after over 100 million deaths caused by Communism, we know exactly who the enemies of the People really are: they’re the Communists, and the army is on the side not of you Commies, but on the side of your supposed “enemies” — the capitalists. If you don’t believe that, you have a rude awakening coming on the Glorious Day. (It’s gonna be glorious, all right — just not in the way you think.)
So good luck with that, assholes. Me, I’m off to the range. My sniper rifle isn’t going to zero itself, nor will my AK be able to dump a full mag into the sweet spot of a (human-shaped) paper target without the shooter (that would be me) being completely “regulated” in its use. (You may want to look up the actual meaning of the word “regulated” in its original placement in the Second Amendment, by the way.)
Don’t get me started on my 1911, which has been looking at me piteously for two whole weeks, begging for an outing.
Hmmm… maybe I was “triggered” after all; certainly my trigger finger started to itch uncontrollably as I read their little manifesto.
Maoist collectives? Pathetic twerps, more like.
Kim, everyone knows .308 is the proper caliber for disposing of commies. If they would go ahead and kick-off the war, I’d prove it to you.
Bram, your statement is absolutely spot-on, and I stand corrected. Unfortunately, my anti-personnel cartridges currently consist of 6.5x55mm Swede and 7.62x39mm (and a few others, but that’s for another time). Now, the latter has been proven to be effective time and time again — lamentably, mostly on the good guys — so what I would seek to do is redress the imbalance, so to speak, by using it on the aforementioned Commies.
The Swede, however, is totally untested in the field of battle (because the Swedes sat out all the major conflicts of the early 20th century), but I’m not worried. I think it would do just fine.
6.5 is a sweet spot. I have a 6.5 Jap, which isn’t a practical rifle and the ammo is expensive when available.
I wish all the Creedmor, Remington .260, and Swede shooters could agree on 1 cartridge and start selling them cheap.
But alas its not to be (killing commie wannabes) because if that particular group ventured too far from mommy and daddy’s mcmansion, they would likely starve.
The 6.5×55 will do just fine, I have read where the Finns brought in a lot of them in 1939 and used them on the Russians, killing a lot of Russians before being over run by the Rats-assed, Red, Commie bastards. I also understand the Swedes had a requirement for excellent Swedish steel to be used in the barrels.
Between old battle rifles from World Wars and lots of decent deer rifles sold in the past 100 years gun owners do have the ability to reach out and make big holes in those who would do us harm. Lots of dusty and some slightly rusty guns in the hands of good decent people who will keep them.
Only on my website could a post talking about shooting Commies turn into a discussion about optimal calibers.
I love you all.
“…you sorry little bunch of insects are going to see exactly what “violence” means.”
Such a confrontation may be precisely what the insects’ handlers want. The minute-by-minute history of the event may already exist on thumb drives in newsrooms everywhere. Unlike the random school shootings, this Slaughter of the Innocents /Reichstag/ Haymarket could be scheduled and coordinated to validly justify nullifying One, Two, Four…. many things. A thousand behind.
So – when it comes, aim for the back ranks.
I am triggered by exclamation points!!! ;^)
I’ve pondered such a scenario. I think 6.5×55 and 7.5×55 might be good for distance, then falling back on the semi-autos for closer work. Though I considered myself more of an AK guy, I did join the AR poodle shooter club years ago–if the S truly HTF, an AK could be considered a bad guy gun.
Hmm…. Not a mention of God’s Own Rifle Cartridge: the 30.06. Surely, divine vengeance coming to the commies out of the barrel of John C’s greatest achievement is fitting for the job….
Don’t have it.
Although I think there may be some among my Readers who do… and its efficacy was well tested, and not found wanting.
Indeed, it was good enough for my father (WW II) and father-in-law (Korea), and millions of guys like them, it’ll do anything I need it to do.
Funny, I got my Garand thru CMP, delivered right to my door in NJ (NJ has since changed the rules and they have to be sent to a dealer), and it arrived the day Barack Obama was inaugurated the first time.
It certainly fits Jeff Cooper’s (RIP) criteria for a rife, in that it has the ability to make things happen decisively at extended range.
Well, gotta go with what I’ve got. That and a battle pack of 7.5 Swiss for my K31. Guess that would work….
No shit.
Yep.
While the Poodle Shooter or Shotty are what I’d go for in up close and personal encounters (based on .mil training and security experience), my Garand is my go to for reach out and touch somebody. Come to think of it, with the bayonet a good friend gave me and the steel butt plate, probably good to go for up close and personal as well.
And it does have a tradition of converting the rabid. As a large number of German, Japanese, Chicom and NORK soldiers could attest, if they were around.
The wannabe commie punks may talk tough, but like many millennial and post-millennials, they want someone else to do all the yucky dangerous fighting and stuff, then just hand over the power straight to them.
So, a poodle shooter is perfectly fine for this lot.
There is only one way to settle this debate, and that is with scientific, repeatable testing involving enough data points to eliminate individual variations in tests. How many Maoists did they say they had?
Commie control:
A properly suppressed standard velocity .22 long rifle is eminently adequate out to 50 ~ 75 yds.
Works well when applied to an ear or the base of a skull as does a .45 ACP or .38 spl. but they tend to wake up the fellow commies. For distances beyond 75 yds a wide range of tools is available.
Beginning with the old standby, .30 30 Winchester (.30 WCF if you want to be picky) moving to the venerable caliber 30 of 1906. Then when all else has failed, we resort John Moses Browning’s masterpiece, the .50 BMG. Please notice that there are no metric measuremented cartridges listed here. The Europeans invented metric dimensioned cartridges and Karl Marx was a european so we’ll us good ole American cartridges to control the population of commies.
Now for groups, installing some claymores inside the ‘safe spaces’ is highly effective.
No matter what, we all can agree that the only good commie is a dead commie.
Jeff Cooper (maybe Rest in Peace) recommended an suppressed 22 for riot control, find the instigator on put one in his lung. Not only will he stop doing what he’s doing, he will do so noisily enough to make the next potential instigator demure. And he’d probably live to stand trial.
Well, if you want to go old school, my little Marlin Guide Gun, made when Marlin was Marlin, in the 1873 wonderful 45-70 is perfect for commies in the brush. Nice fast handling lever gun just needs one shot per commie somewhere close to center of mass to make them not have a nice day. Think about that a 145 year old cartridge will still do the job but loaded with nice hot modern cartridges you line a half dozen commie anti-fas up, flank them and kill them all at once, if need be. Just a thought.
It’ll be one of those ironies of history, a generation of commie pinko wannabes, shot with weapons built by real communists a generation ago, since so many were bought up in the last 30 years.
May I suggest invoking Rule .303 for medium to long range work? After all, it has made it’s share of good commies over the years. As for 5.56 vs 7.62×39, I have embraced the healing power of ‘and’. 🙂
A whole lot of bullshit here.
Let me quote Twain, making mock of loud mouth Americans: “Whoo-oop! I’m the old original iron-jawed, brass-mounted, copper-bellied corpse-maker from the wilds of Arkansaw!–Look at me! I’m the man they call Sudden Death and General Desolation! Sired by a hurricane, dam’d by an earthquake, half-brother to the cholera, nearly related to the small-pox on the mother’s side! Look at me! I take nineteen alligators and a bar’l of whiskey for breakfast when I’m in robust health, and a bushel of rattlesnakes and a dead body when I’m ailing!'”
Leftists start killing people. Rightists talk bullshit about starting to kill people, yup, you’re all the old original iron-jawed, brass-mounted, copper-bellied corpse-makers, sure you are.
If it helps you sleep at night Fred, you keep telling yourself that.
Every time I read one of these declarations from “antifa”, I have to ask “Guys, if you’re such bad asses, how come James Alex Fields, Jr. is living fat and happy at the expense of the state?”
A lot of Antifa are rich white kids playing at being the “Vanguard of the Proletariat” as an outlet for their liberal guilt.
“One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that ‘violence begets violence.’ I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure—and in some cases I have—that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.” — Col. Jeff Cooper
