Gabrielle Giffords: Professional Martyr, Predatory Victim

Misguided tool or the face of evil? You decide. I have.

Gabrielle Giffords: Professional Martyr, Predatory Victim

In the letters section of the 4-19-13 edition of the New York Times, there were ten letters in regard to the recent vote-down in the U.S. Senate on expanded background checks on prospective gun buyers. Only two of the ten could be considered pro-gun. Instead of five for, five against, it seems they wanted to give the impression of overwhelming support of new gun laws. A perfect example of media creating "consensus" in favor of editorial policy.

In one of the two pro-gun letters, a Mr. Laurence Frank summed up neatly as to what the so-called "gun lobby" really is:

"The gun control movement completely fails to understand that the "gun lobby" is not the despised National Rifle Association. It is the nearly 100 million Americans who are unwilling to be disarmed by frightened people who are for the most part wholly ignorant about firearms."

There are things I would like to add to the above statement but before I do, I issue this disclaimer:

I do not know Mr. Frank or of any opinions he might have further on this subject. The remainder of this article are my thoughts & opinions only.

Had I written such a letter, I would also have mentioned three other groups seeking the goal of unilateral personal disarmament. In fact, the very ones manipulating & using the above mentioned herd for their own gain &/or their misguided vision of the future. They are:

1. Media creatures - Those declaring/creating concensus where there really is none in order to further ratings & market share. Forget their stats & polls. My own obsevation/personal experience have shown they are bogus. Besides, a free man is a majority of ONE & not swayed by the emotional non-will of the mob.

2. Politicians - Both the "crusaders" & self serving. Their goal is in making people more dependent on them & expand government power.

By the way ... Where was government power during Newtown/Sandy Hook? Oh yes ... Doing its primary job of issuing traffic tickets between stops at the doughnut shop. To be fair, the police can't be everywhere at once. Like most cuckholds, they're really only good for "cleaning up" afterwards.

3. Professional victims - In the '80s & '90s we had the spectacle of James Brady being paraded about as the poster child for heaven on earth (Where the sun always shines & the lolipops dance.). Todays' advocate for "nirvana now" is none other than Gabrielle Giffords. She is the one we're instructed to gaze upon in awe & automatically concede the arguement. She has been touched by the gods & morally annointed from above. Woe to he who doesn't roll over, for IF he doesn't, then one can be then branded as an INSENSITIVE HEARTLESS BASTARD.

Well ... I have news for Ms. Giffords & her handlers:

I ... don't ... care. Why?

Because ... I have been ... & always will be ... an INSENSITIVE HEARTLESS BASTARD!

I am disgusted & repelled by the "irrefutable" example of the martyr as justification for me having to give up what is mine. I am revulsed by the imagined sanctity of those making a claim on me through their "sainthood".

A. Ms. Giffords' wounds are NOT some badge of authority cancelling out my standing in the arguement.

B. Her "martyrdom" & victimhood are NOT shields against my questioning her dubious motives.

C. Her past suffering is NOT a legitimate excuse for moving on MY rights, liberty & property.

She is not a hero.

She is, at best, only a victim.

She has now, willingly, made herself an adversary.

For the moment, I'm giving the greiving relatives of Sandy Hook a pass. As it is now, they are in too much of a state as to resist the attentions of those who would manipulate them. If, down the road, some of them are still allowing for it then I'll have to lump them with Giffords.

Ayn Rand called it "Tyranny of the victim". Those making a claim on you because of their victimhood.

DON'T FALL FOR IT.

Just sayin' ...

Well Isn't THAT Special! Barack & the Kiddies

Obama exploiting children for political gain.
Because he cares soooooo much!

Well Isn't THAT Special! Barack & the Kiddies


This reminds me of a minor non-incident from the mid 90s'. A Columbus (Ohio) city councilman decided to raise a little stink (He was a little stinker.) over those dreaded "ASSAULT WEAPONS(!)". Seems Rickenbacker air base was being used at the time by several civilian corporations as an entry point for foriegn goods (Some kind of NAFTA deal, I think.).

One company was shipping in older Russian small arms to sell to American wholesalers/distributors. This was back when the then cash strapped Russians were selling anything that could shoot & the U.S. was a more than ready market at the time. I remember well the brochures that came into the gun store/range I was working at the time. There was even litturature from Georgian & Armenian companies with goodies to sell.

Well this doofus got inspired by his pre-teen son & went on a toot about these old commie guns, making it sound as if mountains of full-auto AK47s were being shipped in for the express purpose of spreading murder & mayhem. The good statesman got some press milage/publicity courtesy of the poodle press & riled up the sheeple somewhat. Turns out the guns were mostly old bolt action Nagants & low capacity (10 round, fixed box.) SKS semi-autos.

Oh yeah! What was it that inspired the politico? Something in the line of this:

"Gee daddy ... If guns are so bad ... why are they coming here?"

Out of the mouths of babes? ... No doubt the poor kid grew up to be twice the ideological fool his daddy is.

NRA Comes Out Swinging

NRA Comes Out Swinging

I must admit. I was a little worried. I thought the National Rifle Association would fold & join in the call for more gun bans & the like. I thought Wayne LaPierre & the organisation would take a "new direction", turn on its membership & betray gun owners in general. I thought they would fall in line & do what the haters of the Second Ammendment in particular & the Constitution in general may have been hoping for: Concede the arguement & try to save itself by becoming "more relevant" & "in step" with what the media puts across as a "general concensus" of popular opinion.

In short, surrender & go along to get along by siding with them.

I was wrong. I let the bull crap get to me. I even phoned the NRA & "threatened" that I would remove its' link from this blog if they changed direction. That's what happens when one listens to too much CNN & other establishment propaganda outlets. O me of little faith.

What did happen was, after a week of restraint while the establishment media, their allies among the politicians, celebrities, special interests & other parasite elements ghoulishly exploited the Newtown incident, the NRA came out & stood firm.

The above mentioned sheep in wolves clothing now hate the NRA even more than before ... For being the NRA.

I have, after an absence of many years, decided to rejoin the NRA. Suggest those of you who are sympathetic to do the same.

Of Dancing On the Bodies & Crocodile Tears


Unless you've been hiding under a rock or lay comatose in a hospital somewhere the last few days, you've probably heard of the recent incident in Connecticut. Needless to say, the media & politicians have been making a LOT of political hay of it. Even "our" president has shed some tears of dubious authenticity.

On Fox News late Sunday, just before the start of a televised memorial service (Wherin the "annointed one" campaigned about "doing something".) the elitist Charles Krauthammer opined about this being a "watershed" on the Second Ammendment. He went on further to say that this also affected the First & Fifth ammendments as well & that any "measures" would impinge upon them. Then he said that maybe Americans might be willing to "this time" accept such impingements.

In the words of Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." Interesting how that "damn piece of paper" (The Constitution.) can be such a pain in the posterior to those with "a vision for tomorrow".

So ... Write, e-mail, fax, PHONE your representative & Senators in Congress. Tell them in no uncertain terms to vote AGAINST not only any & all gun control legislation but also AGAINST any & all legislation concerning censoring/curtailment of media, the written word, games, internet, etc. The rights & property you save may be your own.

I know what I'd pick ...

"In other news" Senators Mark Warner & Joe Manchin (Both Demicans) have "broken ranks" with pro-gun senators & have called for "bans" on "assault weapons". One can only imagine what it was that caused them to sell out their respective constituencies. As it is the nature of the politician/parasite to feed at the public trough as long as possible, I doubt their betrayals were due to any rosey rhetoric or fits of compassion & more in the line of gaining "political capitol" of some kind. They profit at your expense.

Virginia voters should note that Mr. Warner is up for re-election in 2014 (Hint! Hint!).

Just sayin'.
