Trying not to start the public floggings
Yeah, this is going to end well:
Fortunately, this little experiment is taking place in Finland, so the fallout won’t be too bad. (And I always thought the Finns were the sensible Scandinavians…)
Can you imagine this bunch of ingenues sitting down to negotiate anything with Vladimir Putin or that Commie asshole from China?
World’s gone fucking crazy.
So the Britishland elections are over, and Boris “The Babe” Johnson has absolutely routed the evil Communists and Europhiles who opposed him (see link for body counts).
Of course, the Left has responded to their loss in typical fashion:
Yup… anyone who opposes them and their Marxist dogma is eeevil, raayyycisss and shellfish.
Kinda like our Lefties Over Here, huh?
Fuck ’em, and the class envy they rode in on. And to the Stout Bulldogs among my Readers: wave buh-bye to the EU and their minions:
…and allow me to share some of our favorite 2016 vintage with you:
Sayonara to Kamala Harris, you evil incompetent bitch.
Only a dozen or so more, then, who have to commit suicide errr fall over a cliff ummm slip on a bar of soap ehhh fall up a flight of stairs whoops drink a gallon of antifreeze I mean quit — until you-know-who decides to insert her foul presence back into the polity.
What I like most about the gun control movement is how ignorant (not to say dishonest) its proponents are. Cue Joe The Moron:
While attending a private campaign event in Seattle, the former vice president reportedly called for a ban on 9mm pistols.
…
While speaking to attendees of the latter event, Biden claimed that he supports the Second Amendment. The 77-year-old then went on to ask “Why should we allow people to have military-style weapons including pistols with 9mm bullets and can hold 10 or more rounds?”
…
In targeting 9mm pistols, Biden has called for a ban on one of the most popular firearms in America.
…
In its annual report on the U.S. firearms industry, Shooting Industry reported that 9mm caliber pistols are the most commonly produced pistol and have been for many years. In 2017 alone, there were more than 1.7 million 9mm pistols produced in the U.S. Cumulatively there are tens of millions of 9mm pistols in the hands of law-abiding Americans.
…
The 9mm pistol is the choice of the nation’s leading civilian law enforcement agency, the FBI. Moreover, 9mm pistols are used by countless other federal, state, and local civilian law enforcement agencies. Biden alluded to the 9mm handgun’s military applications, but these agencies are not tasked with waging war on the public, but rather defending the public. This defensive application is the same reason that millions of Americans have chosen a 9mm pistol as their self-defense firearm.
So now Clueless Joe wants to ban 9mm pistols, because they are “weapons of war and have no application in civilian life”.
As Longtime Readers know, I have long held the opinion that the 9mm Europellet is a marginal self-defense cartridge, certainly in its full metal jacket variant, less so with a proper expanding bullet — although even that’s a stretch.
But if Gummint (in Biden form) wants to ban the guns which shoot them, allow me to offer this advice (with my favorite pictured):
…or of course my perennial favorite (once again with my recommendation):
Let’s not forget the only 9mm pistol I own (I mean used to own, before that terrible Canoeing Accident On The Brazos):
(sadly, most are out of stock at the link — I wonder why?)
…and there’s always this option, for my ex-military friends (with all the rest):
And of course, because this is Joe Biden, he never thought (or didn’t know) that a jillion cops (along with a few misguided individuals) use this Austro-POS 9mm pistol too:
(no link because Glock, ugh)
Now I know the question on the lips of all my Readers will be: “Kim, why did you feature the Kahr 9mm pistols first?”
Simple answer: I like Kahr pistols. I think their action is superior to Glock’s, and their guns sit better in my hand too. Your opinion may vary, as may your choice in 9mm pistols, and that’s perfectly okay.
But as I said earlier:
I think y’all know what to do. And if you already own one (or two, or three, or four…) then you know what to do next:
…or even better:
Have at it. Make Baby Vulcan smile.
From Gates Of Vienna comes a “tl;mr” (too long / must read”) post by a teacher at the sharp end — probably literally so — of the effort to get newly-arrived immigrant children to integrate into the host society. As you can well imagine, it’s going to fail dismally:
I know I will be called a “damned whore”, “damned pussy”, and I know I will hear, “You don’t decide for me.” There will be mess and noise in the classroom, the hallways, the schoolyard and the dining room. Changing rooms where classes change for physical education classes will, as usual, be places where girls don’t dare change since boys will show up and sneakily photograph the girls.
Showering is not on the world map for girls and even for some boys in school. It is enough that one or two pupils refuse to follow the instruction and scream “shut up” at me every time I am going to say something; thus is the lesson destroyed for 28 other pupils who want to learn something.When I call parents in for a conversation, I hear that I don’t have the right to tell their children off, that I should be careful so that I won’t be reported to the principal or school inspectors. They know where my family and I live, what car I drive, and I know that the risk is great that my car will get scratched or destroyed in some other way. I know that certain pupils threaten other pupils, but I don’t dare get in the middle because I risk being beaten.
Read it, and don’t weep; get angry. Because this (and the mindset which enables it) either has come, or will soon be coming to a school near you.
Found via Insty (thankee, Stephen) these words of wisdom come from Bill Maher:
“Lately we’ve been hearing more and more about a second civil war which sounds impossible in this modern, affluent country. It is not. We talk about Trump as an existential threat, but his side sees Democratic control of government the exact same way. When both sides believe the other guy taking over means the end of the world, yes, you can have a civil war.”
…
“We are going to have to learn to live with each other or else there will be blood.”
Well, we conservatives have taken over (sorta), and the world hasn’t ended. Much to my disgust, cops haven’t started shooting down Pantifa rioters in the streets, the editorial board members of the New York Times haven’t been sent to the guillotine and we haven’t planted millions of landmines along our southern border — to name but three areas of disappointment.
Something else Maher said:
“And never forget, the single shining truth about democracy: it means sharing a country with assholes you can’t stand.”
Which would be absolutely true, except that we have Democrats trying their level best to subvert democracy with massive voter fraud and a sham impeachment of an elected President — and we’re not even going to mention the disgusting attempts to make America a land of popular majority government instead of the representative republic that it always has been, as laid down in the Constitution.
And speaking of subverting the Constitution, we also have Democrats attempting to end our First Amendment right of free speech with nonsense like hate speech codes, and we all know that Democrats everywhere want to overturn the Second Amendment by disarming Americans — to name yet another two areas of conflict where the Left and conservatives are irreparably separated.
Simple truth for the Left? I don’t want to live with Leftists, Communists, Progressives or whatever you call yourselves today. The essence of the matter is that the two sides have radically different perspectives as to how this country should look, and the two are mutually contradictory. Your side leads to Venezuela and Cuba, even though you say it leads to Sweden. Our side just wants us all to live as the Constitution promises.
So why should we live together? For fear of revolution?
Don’t make me laugh. We already had one Revolution in 1776, and the Constitution won. The Russians also had one in 1917, and the Bolsheviks won — but only readers of the New York Times could possibly think that Russia ended up better than we did.
Don’t even think you can emulate Lenin in the U.S. because you can’t, and you won’t.
We don’t have to learn to live with you; you have to learn to live with us. Or else you can go and live in Sweden, Russia or Cuba because this is our country, you Commie bastards. This is the country of the U.S. Constitution, not Das Kapital.
