The good news is I haven’t heard about a big Antifa attack or protest this past week.

The bad news is the trend seen in three stories from the last week.

In order of increasing seriousness.

In North Dakota, a town hall Republican Congressman Kevin Cramer, protester got “hands on” with the Congressman over the health care bill.

Republican Congressman Tom Garrett has received a number of death threats, including threats against his wife and children, as a result of the health care bill.

MONETA, Va. — “This is how we’re going to kill your wife.”

That’s the message Rep. Tom Garrett (R-Va.) said he received in a series of recent threats that targeted him, his family and even, at one point, his dog. And it’s the reason, he said, that his town hall here in this sleepy Virginia community on Tuesday night was ringed by law enforcement.

The high security presence, Garrett said later, was the result of threats that Capitol Police, state police and intelligence officials “have deemed to be credible and real.”

A woman in Tennessee recognized Tennessee Republican Congressman David Kustoff driving on the highway and tried to run him off the road.

The woman was arrested.  Since then, she has become a hero to Progressives.

The antis used to love calling gun owners insurrectionists.  We were always the threat to the public and democracy.

Yet I can’t find a story through Google of a NRA member trying to run Diane Feinstein off the road or getting handsy with Chuck Schumer.

We’re 114 days into Trump’s presidency and some on the left have begun attacking, actually physically attacking, Republican politicians.  From social media, what we’ve seen there are many more people who support this, if they don’t engage in physical violence themselves.

Again I am forced to ask, what is the end game here?  Do they think they can force Republicans in deep red districts to change how they vote  through threats?

I believe that is is such a lack of respect for our government system that they would rather destroy it if they can’t control it.

I’m just not sure if they have though about what the ultimate result of that looks like.

Today we turn to the city of San Francisco.

Why?

Because when you want to study the degeneration of Liberal man in his natural habitat, you head off to San Francisco like Jane Goodall going to Tanzania.

In San Francisco, foodie hipsters have been hacking open their own hands trying to make guacamole at such a high rate of occurrence, that local ER’s have dubbed the injury “avocado hand.”

She’s not going to be giving any southpaw happy endings for a while.

My first thought when I saw this picture was “that had to hurt.”

My next thought was “who tries to stab something that they are holding in their hand?”

In terms of safety, not stabbing something that I am holding in my hand comes right after not pointing the gun at my foot while I clear and make safe.

Then I realized something.

I have cut myself plenty of times.  My hands are a reticulation of scars of cuts and scrapes and scratches of a life using knives and tools.  I learned how to carve a steak and bone a chicken without cutting myself by cutting myself slicing a tomato.

Making the mistakes when I was young tackling small tasks taught me what not to do the hard way.  Now, as an adult, using a power saw or a handgun, the common sense on what not to do with a dangerous tool was developed by experiencing minor injuries as a child.  Seven year old me might have tried to stab an avocado pit, 34 year old me know that’s some stupid shit to do.

I was able to make the minor mistakes when I was young for two reasons.  I have been carrying a pocket knife pretty much every day since I was a Cub Scout and got my Whittling Chip, and my parents allowed me to carry a pocket knife.  From this, I developed a respect for tools and how to use them properly.

These people who are sticking knifes through their hands are skinny-jeans wearing hipsters.  These are coddled adult-children.  They have hands that have grown up holding video game controllers and not tools.

This is what happens when society that demonizes inanimate objects.  First they try and ban guns.  They the put in place very restrictive knife laws.   Then whey they ultimately have a culture that assumes every pocket knife is a weapon and good people don’t carry knifes, the first time a hipster wants to show off at a cookout he ends up having to have several fingers re-attached.

We’re taking a road trip from Huntsville to just south a Birmingham for the day.

We pack up all the necessitates, diaper bag, snack bag, etc.

I grab my mini bug out bag and summer weight EDC gear.

My mom asks me “Do you have to be to heavily armed?”

I replied “What do you mean heavily armed?  It’s only two handguns and neither is a .45.”

Former Congresswoman Corrine Brown (D-FL) was convicted of 18 counts of fraud and tax evasion.  For this she faces over 300 years in prison and $4.8 Million in fines.  She stole money from a charity she ran, among other things.

It’s a good start.

One down, 535 more to go.

The ACLU issued a travel warning for Americans who go to Texas because the the sanctuary city ban Texas Governor Greg Abbott just signed into law.

Apparently, for the ACLU it is a horrible violation of a person’s rights to have their immigration status verified after an arrest for another crime.

NYC top douchebag Mayor Bill de Blasio attacked Texas on Twitter.

I guess New Yorkers didn’t get the message about it being the safest April in NYC history, because most people don’t believe the crime stats.  That’s because de Blasio is fudging the stats.    Something that NYC has a history of doing.

Besides, it’s easy to say the crime stats are lower when many offenses were decriminalized by de Blasio.

So color me skeptical of de Blasio’s claims.

All that aside, this is where this post was going.

Years ago, I drove to NYC to visit a buddy of mine that had a college internship in the city.  I was driving my old Suburban with Florida plates and an NRA window sticker.

I got pulled over and searched by the NYPD.  Yes it was an illegal search.  No, I did not consent.  I was a dumb college student without the wherewithal to stand up for myself.

I kept being asked about guns and why I was coming to New York.

I was profiled.  A car with FL plates and an NRA sticker, I had to be a gun runner.

My civil rights were completely violated.

The ACLU has NEVER stood up for this kind of profiling.  NYC liberals are happy to violate any civil rights they don’t agree with.

Here illegally?  They will bend over backwards for you.

Have an NRA sticker on your car?  They will stick a camera up your ass.

Maybe the NRA should publicly issue a Travel Warning to all 150 Million plus gun owners not to go to NYC.  Turnabout is fair play.

If you were to listen to the Left, not is is America not the best country, it is in many ways the worst country on earth.  The same people (HuffPo) will tell you that deporting criminal aliens is cruel and unusual punishment.  Apparently the Progressive thing to do is to allow them to stay in this racist, xenophobic country that hates them.

Yeah, I don’t get it either.

However, Trump favors deportation for criminal illegal immigrants.  That is enough for Democrats to want to fight deportation tooth and nail.

In Boston, an Uber driver took a woman who hired his services to a remote location and raped her, then dropped her off on the campus of Boston College.  As it turns out, the man was an illegal immigrant and passed the Uber background check by using a fake name.

During arraignment it was made public that Luis Baez, the driver, was an associate of the Mozart Street Gang, had previous arrests, had been previously deported, and was wanted by ICE.

The judge released Baez on $2,500 bond, and now he’s gone.

Rape a women three times and pay a $2,500 fine.  That’s what that amounts to.

In Portland, Oregon, Diddier Pacheco-Salazar was arrested for DUI.  Because of his criminal record and previous deportation and return, ICE decided that wanted to detain him after court.  The judge, a Progressive on the board of the Oregon Hispanic Bar Association, let Pacheco-Salazar out of court through the Judge’s entrance to avoid ICE officers.  The Judge is not under criminal investigation, because in Portlandia, Progressive identity politics trumps the law and Judge’s oath.

In New York City, Communist Dickbag Mayor de Blasio ordered that the NYPD not turn illegal immigrants over to ICE for committing minor crimes like drunk driving and grand larceny.  In practicality  this means that NYC rejects pretty much all federal detainers and causes the NYPD to release admitted members of the MS-13 gang (known for their violent culture of gang rape) back into the city.

In Baltimore, porcescutors have been told to go easy on illegal immigrants, pleading them down to minor crimes, so that they can avoid having a detainers placed on them to prevent deportation.

The result is that Democrats have created a preferred class of criminals.  If you are in the country illegally and you commit a crime, Progressives in the judicial system will bend over backwards to ensure you get the lightest possible touch to avoid deportation.

Violent, forcible rape is punished with a fine.  Drug dealing and intimidating  a witness gets your a night stay behind bars.  Nearly kill someone under the influence and your’e free to go.

This is the Ferguson effect on steroids.  Very quickly, illegal immigrants with nefarious intent will learn that the law really doesn’t apply to them.  They are free to pray on American citizens with impunity.  All they have to so is flash some teardrop tattoos at a Progressive judge and say that they don’t want their family broken up and who knows what they will be able to get away with.

This is setting an insanely dangerous precedent.  It is like the inverse of broken windows policing.  This will only encourage crime.

God help the people living in and around sanctuary cities, because the police and local judicial system sure as hell wont.

Moms Demand Action posted this on their Facebook page.

It links to this article ISIS Appreciates the NRA’s Work.

In the United States, you can buy semi-automatic weapon without submitting yourself to a background check, so long as you make your purchase at a gun show. Roughly 90 percent of Americans object to this policy. But the National Rifle Association (NRA) — and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) — like it a lot.

Um… No.

The NRA likes the “gun-show loophole” because the organization is funded by firearms manufacturers who would like to continue making money selling weapons to criminals. (A large majority of the NRA’s members support universal background checks, even as the organization does everything in its power to prevent their enactment.)

This is the most lying bullshit ever told in the history of lying bullshit.

First of all, that 91% of people including the NRA want background checks is right up there with 97% of scientists believe global warming will kill us all bullshit statistics.

I can tell you, as someone who works in the industry, we don’t get up in the morning and say “I really hope some criminal buys one of our guns and shoots up a school so more people go out an buy guns for self defense.”

That is EXACTLY what these fuckers believe.
