See? Those High Capacity Assault Magazine Clips are dangerous as hell. You don’t even need a gun to kill people.

Or maybe he was using one of them “Ghost Guns.”

Brady Campaign Choir Boy Leland Yee faces RICO charges

A federal indictment released Friday expanded criminal charges against state Sen. Leland Yee to include racketeering, alleging Yee attempted to extort campaign contributions from an NFL team owner and supporters of mixed martial arts.

Yee, a San Francisco lawmaker, was arrested in March and charged with accepting $62,000 in campaign contributions in return for favors, and offering to arrange the sale of machine guns and shoulder-fired missiles to an undercover FBI agent posing as a mob figure.

On Friday, a superseding grand jury indictment was issued, adding a violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations, or RICO, Act, which allows enhanced criminal penalties and civil action when crimes are performed as part of a criminal organization.

In the new indictment, Yee faces three additional charges: one count of “conspiracy to conduct the affairs of an enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity,” and two counts of conspiracy “to obtain property under the color of official right.”

When did he ever have time to actually do the business people elected him to do? I am guessing never.

“To each what he deserves.”

to each what he deserves

This is the main gate of Buchenwald concentration camp.  The motto translates “To each what he deserves.”

I know that some dislike the use of concentration camps and Nazi atrocities when we talk why we need a Second Amendment, but when we have active Gun Control groups who have no problem with concentration camps in this country of ours  and that even a massacre of innocents is a good thing for the country as long as they eventually, sometime in the future they are vindicated in court.

Unfortunately, that vindication in the future comes at a steep price and the currency is human life:

Buchenwald 1 Buchenwald 2 Buchenwald 3 Buchenwald 4

That anybody can actually argue that violations of the most basic human rights at this level can be permitted for more than one second just because there is a “system” in place to address them legally sometime in the future represents a callousness that scares the hell out of me and should scare you. That those individuals call themselves Americans, vote and want to have influence on how legislation is crafted and applied is just too much to accept.

 

Pediatrician Group Urges Florida Doctors to Break “Docs vs. Glocks” Law.

In the meantime, the APP is urging members to keep asking parents if they keep guns in the home.

“Because of the proven value of physician counseling in preventing injury and death, the AAP is advising its members in Florida and throughout the United States to continue to uphold the standard of medical practice and ask about the presence of guns in the environments of children, and to counsel their patients and patients’ parents about the importance of storing guns safely,” reads a statement from the group.

I imagine that the doctors will have a wee bit more sense than breaking the law even if they think it is wrong.  But do not buy for one second that AAP is purely doing for the goodness of their hearts and a 100% free from politics interest. I found a little document in their website railing against “Assault Weapons” in a language that is very familiar to us and does not sound quite medical. The reason can be seen at the end of the document:

AAP Brady Moms

I guess this is what passes for medical research on guns for the American Academy of Pediatrics: Talking points from well-known Gun Control groups. And the hits do not stop there but also on another AAP-related website with more language and proven false stats: HealthyChildren.org.

And just for kicks, I bring back an old favorite:

To engage in Home Safety Counseling without certification, license or formal training in home safety and Risk Management and to concentrate on one small politically correct area, i.e., firearms to the neglect of ALL of the other safety issues in the modern home, is to invite a lawsuit because the safety counselor, (Physician) Knew, Could have known or Should have known that there were other dangers to the occupants of that house more immediate than firearms.

Everytown Domestic Abuse ad bombs with The View: Moms Demand horrified.

The View is a show that cannot be called Conservative by any stretch if the imagination. On Tuesday, the ladies played the Everytown latest video showing a domestic incident where the woman gets killed by the ex-boyfriend and to most people’s surprise, three out of the four panelist were for having a gun to defend themselves:

Well, Moms Demand is having fits over the show’s direction:

Moms Demand The View Domestic

Michael Bloomberg has The Raben Group, one of the top PR firm in NYC pretty much on call to do the work for Moms and Everytown. This is not a fly-by operation but a serious company with clients including Mastercard, Time Warner and Walmart. Yet nobody saw that the ad would not only backfire but that it would do so in a well-viewed show by a majority of the hostesses.

Then again, you can escape logic only so far.

And that would be the seal of the Vatican.

People see the Swiss Guard at the Vatican dressed Old School and tend to dismiss them as decorative. That would be a mistake. They have been protecting the Vatican for over 500 years and carry with them the tradition of being the nastiest fighters that ever came out of Europe. So much so that not even the Nazis messed with the Vatican or Switzerland for that matter. And in case you are wondering, yes they have been tested and they have done their duty.

Everytown Video Fail: Which one you rather be?

This is the latest indoctrination video courtesy of the marketing geniuses paid by Michael Bloomberg:

I think the part that pissed me off the most is the 911 caller “Do you have a restraining order?” Paper does not beat abusive ex-boyfriend, OK?

Unfortunately for Everytown/Moms Demand, we had a counter-video long before they came up with this Lifetime Original piece of crap:

Refuse to be a victim..shoot the bastard.
