Dear Shannon Watts,

I refer to the tweet you made just before noon on June 5th, 2017.

The blood is still wet on the pavement of the London Bridge and Borough Market.

Parents are still burring their children in Manchester.

And you have the brass plated audacity to cal the gun lobby – and by implication NRA members – terrorists?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

The police have said that the shooter at Fiamma in Orlando was a disgruntled employee, who was recently fired and had a history of violence, and that this has nothing to do with terrorism.

You couldn’t refrain from pushing the terror angle.

Because some asshole with an anger issue, that we both agree shouldn’t have been able to get a gun, is somehow tantamount to the deliberate spreading of radicalization and targeting of civilians that ISIS is waging on the Western World.

He is not.  You attempt a being sardonic is an insult to those who were killed by the Lefts inability to confront Islamic terrorism because of EXACTLY what you are doing now: virtue signaling.

You are of course the same person who tweeted this:

You obviously believe #NotAllMuslims are responsabile for terrorism, but you sure seem to believe that all NRA members are responsible for the Fiamma shooting.

Your moral relativism and ideologue nature are despicable.  You are a terrible person and the more you tweet the more you reveal that.

From the bottom of my hear and with the greatest degree of sincerity, fuck you.

It is fascinating to see how extreme ideologies from different parts of the world are so similar.

The Quran 5:51 says “O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.”

Now over to Seattle, Washington.

According to The Seattle Times:

“One council member, Tim Burgess, tried to highlight this basic agreement by noting that ‘even some of our Republican friends’ have been calling for seismic changes to the incarceration system…

Kshama Sawant wasn’t having any of that. She stood up and said Burgess wasn’t speaking for her with this ‘our Republican friends’ stuff. Because, she assured the crowd, she doesn’t have any Republican friends.

Yay, cheered the crowd.”

To be a member of the faithful, one cannot associate with non-believers.  How can one maintain a purity of belief if ther firends can influence them with heretical thoughts.  

In such a case one is then bound by faith to fight the unbelievers, by running them over with a car, blowing them up at concerts, bashing them in the heads with bike locks or pelting them from the rooftops with bricks.

We are reaching a critical mass were when you end up with a knife in your ribs, it’s is as likely that that last thing you hear is “no Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA” as it is “Allah akbar.”

They are sister ideologies.

According to Elle magazine, there are liberal women who have not been able to have sex since the election of Donald Trump.

The first thing I did when I opened my tear-puffed eyes on November 9th was to delete all the dating apps off my phone. I wouldn’t need those anymore in this new world. I’d never be able to focus on anything again that wasn’t the constant swirl of horror and despair I now felt. How could I think about dating or even just getting laid when we were absolutely all going to die?

This is not healthy.   When the candidate you voted for loses, it shouldn’t throw you into an existential crisis in which you forgo happiness and become self destructive.

This is what happens when politics is your religion and a politician becomes your personal savior. 

This woman needs to find Jesus.  Really.  She needs something to believe in that gives her life meaning that is not as fickle as politics.

Shot my monthly match on Saturday.  I’m still coming in middle of the pack in overall score, this time 11 out of 21.

I shoot slow.  No doubt about that.

But I shoot well, only 6 points down for the entire match.  Shot clean on three stages, two of them, nothing but head shots.

As one RO said “you left the store* covered in brains.”

*Course description: convince store robbery, P1 was in front of the counter.

Now for the corporate shill:

When the match is over and the range is cleaned up, I like to go do a little straight forward target shooting.  Just to practice the fundamentals.

That is 8 rounds at 15 yards with my IDPA CDP gun.

Remington R1 Carry.  UMC 230 grain 45 ACP.

Upgraded with a Wilson Combat Bulletproof wide thumb safety and semi-extended slide release.

Trigger job done by my buddy the 1911 Whisperer.

Like I said.  I don’t shoot fast.  But accuracy like that is how I shoot a stage clean, all head shots.

My son is three, and like many three-year-olds, he loves Paw Patrol.

We were watching an episode, Paw Patrol Pups Save a Lost Tooth and I saw something that frightened me.

Chase is one of the pups.  He is supposed to be a police dog and a traffic cop.

In this episode, the pups are looking for a lost tooth to put under some kids pillow for the tooth fairy.  Chase uses his drone to search for the tooth.

HOLY SHIT!!!

In Adventure Bay, the police dog is equipped with a General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper (Preadator B) UAV.

I am seriously concerned about the universe of Paw Patrol in which a dog with a 10-year-old genius master can command something that has the capacity to launch Hellfire Missiles.

I’m even more concerned about what this can teach the youth of America:

That is is perfectly normal for the police to use Predator drones for routine searches in the US.  That seems like very dangerous slippery slope to a police state.  Normalized by a children’s cartoon.

Maybe I am reading too much into this.

Here is my take on Trump’s backing out of the Paris Accords and the response by the Left.

There is little accuracy in predicting what the Paris Accords will accomplish in terms of climate change.  Will it lower temperatures by 1.9 degrees or only 0.2 degrees a century from now.  In a century, what will the effects be? 

The reality of the situation is this: central planning vs. the free market.

Paris is central planning of the environment.  A group of European bureaucrats decide who spends how much on what technology where.

Pulling out of Paris means that the free market can create new, more efficient and cost effective technology to reduce energy consumption to save money.  That’s ultimately what will drive green technology, cost savings.  

If a semi truck gets better milage it costs less to operate and is more profitable.  FedEx has been covering the roofs of its distribution hubs with solar panels because the long term energy savings pay for themselves.

There is a lot we can do without staying in Paris.  The idea that we are either beholden to the accords or we suffer the environmental apocalypse is a false dichotomy.

What this is are Leftists who have a hardon for central planning losing their minds that America decided to go it’s own free market way. 

If there is one thing we know about economics, nothing works when it is centrally planned.  The free market isn’t perfect but it evolves out the most functional ideas over time.

It was the Soviet central planners who starved 10 million Ukrainians to death in the Holomodor.  Chinese central planners starved 50 million in the Great Leap Forward.  We’re seeing that play out again in Venezuela right now.

American farms feed this nation with less than 2% of the population working as farmers.

There are very few guarantees in politics, but if there is one about Paris, it is that central planning of the environment will fail as badly as central planning of an economy. 

That of course won’t stop the Left and their love of central planning.   They will once again explain how their idea was right it just wasn’t implemented correctly and next time will be better.

This whole kerfuffle has nothing to to with the environment and everything with the central planners no longer being able to include America in their (doomed) plans.

All the screaming you hear is the anguish of petty tyrants having a plaything ripped from their hands.

This was a story my dad told me about my parents wedding.

My dad’s mom’s side of the family is Polish and Russian Jews.

My mom’s side of the family is all Polish Catholics.

My dad’s grandmother’s brother (his great uncle) was from the same region of Poland as my mom’s mom’s side of the family.  They were from practically the same town outside of Warsaw.  One side was Catholic and on the other side of the river that ran through town was the Jewish side.

At my parents wedding, my dad’s great uncle was speaking in Polish to my mom’s grandmother.  My mom’s grandmother asked him how he spoke fluent Polish.  He said “I’m Polish.”  My mom’s grandmother said (quite loudly) “you’re not a Polish, you’re a Jew.”

That right there explains the Holocaust so well.  The Poles, Germans, French, and so many other Europeans never though of the Jews as their fellow countrymen.  They were always strangers, outsiders, in nations that have lived in for generations.

Fast forward to yesterday (6/1/2017) where Keith Olbermann tweets this:

There you have it.  According to resistance leader Reichsführer Olbermann, Republicans are not Americans.

Olbermann goes on a 7:44 rant in which he clearly states that Republicans are traitors who will be “damned by history” for Donald Trump.  To him, Republicans are an insidious force bent on destroying America, and maybe the world, for money.

I’m surprised he didn’t come out and call Republicans untermensch.

I’m getting a whiff of historical precedent of a man ranting into a TV camera, saying that all those who oppose his vision for his nation are subversive traitors.

Republicans are not Americans, they are “the other.”

(Illegal immigrants on the other hand are totally embraced as Americans and deserving of all sorts of free stuff.)

This is not the language of “resistance” or unity.

A few of his followers seem to understand that.

This will only embolden the violent on the Left.

For the first time in my life, as I stand on my tip toes to try to see if there is a gas chamber in my future over the horizon, I’m not sure if it is there because I’m Jewish, or because I’m not a Democrat.
