Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Geroge Takei sh**s on his people and his history to hate on Trump

It takes a miserable person to discard horrible treatment and conditions suffered by his people to make political brownie points with the people who put him in a concentration camp.

Japanese Americans were stripped of their property, sent away to camps where the housing was “tar paper-covered barracks of simple frame construction without plumbing or cooking facilities of any kind.”  There were never enough doctors or nurses or even enough medication. If they were even suspected they may make a run for it, the interned were shot on the spot.

George Takei dares to make you believe that kids who were dragged thorough the desert and smuggled into the country by irresponsible adults (not necessarily their parents) and are under the care of the US Government in climate controlled facilities, being well fed and cared for are worse off than he was at a concentration camp just because he needs to grandstand in his hate for President Trump.

I joke that Takei is the longest-lasting case of Stockholm syndrome in medical history. I think it is not a joke but only one of his many mental issues.

Hat Tip to J.Kb. for raising my blood pressure.

Florida: Active Shooter Seminar. (FREE)

Via Erin Palette.

Operation Blazing Sword is proud to present our first Community Safety Seminar!

ONE AIM is a 90-minute presentation on active shooter survival techniques, presented by experts in this field, including Orlando first responders. The discussion will include considerations as a legally armed civilian caught up in the midst of an active shooter situation.

Admission is FREE, but seating is limited and attendees must RSVP via this link: One Aim Seminar: Safety for Everyone – advice from experts on how to survive an active shooter situation.

 

This will happen in Maitland, Fl. which is just a tad north of Orlando. If you are in Mouse County or nearby, don’t miss it.

Defensive Shooting Aftermath: Get your priorities straight.

Pro-tip: If your biggest concern about what happens after a use-of-force event is “what can I do to not be arrested,” your priorities are BADLY out of alignment.
As a lawyer who routinely consults on use-of-force cases, I couldn’t care less about you getting arrested. You getting arrested is the LEAST of your concerns.
You not spending 40 years in prison is what my focus is on, and that ought to be YOUR focus, too.
Just assume you’ll be arrested, go with the flow, comply with the officers (and maybe the cuffs won’t end up SUPER tight), and relax while you wait for your lawyer to show up.

Never forget cops arrive at a situation where there might be a body on the ground, one person (you hopefully) still standing vertical and no true idea what has happened prior to them getting there. For all they know, you are somebody who just killed an innocent and you gonna wear cuffs till stuff gets figured out.

PS: Have you selected your lawyer? Do you have his number with you at all times? 

Small Arms Survey: “Guns are bad, M’kay?”

“Accessing accurate data for small arms is always a difficult task. In the arms trade, small arms are considered the cancer of any society, as they facilitate human rights abuses, criminality, insurrection as well as murder, particularly in developing countries or countries subject to war,” said Martin Drew, British arms trade expert and government consultant.

Civilians own 85% of world’s 1bn firearms, survey reveals.

The cancer of any society.” You gotta love the poetic bullshit even if they contradict themselves farther down the article.  So who has the biggest case of cancer?

The United States has just 4% of the world population, but the survey estimates that civilians in the US possess almost 40% of the world’s firearms – 393m weapons – equivalent to 121 firearms for every 100 residents.

Dude! 393 million weapons mostly by far in the hands of civilians.  here is a cute bit of information;

In terms of weapons held by law enforcement agencies, Russia is estimated to have the greatest sum at 2.4m, followed by China with 1.9m, then India at 1.7m. For military stocks of small arms, Russia is again top with 30.3m. China has 27.5m and North Korea 8.4m. The US military is estimated to have 1m small arms in its possession.

So, NRA members alone have more firepower than the combined police forces of Russia, China and India. And that is one gun per NRA member. The top three armies only represent about two and a half years of firearms’ sales to civilians in the US.

“The indications are that US civilians will continue to acquire firearms with acquisition averaging around 14m guns annually during the last five years … the US contributes disproportionately to the increase of the global firearms stockpile,” said Aaron Karp, Small Arms Survey’s senior consultant.
The Annual Firearms Manufacturing and Export Report, published by the US Justice Department’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives states that US companies have manufactured more than 150m firearms since 1986, the majority of which were sold domestically.

The above is based on an ATF report that has manufacturing only till 2015 and I still think they don’t have all the numbers right IMHO.  Mr. Kaplan’ statement that the average acquisition of guns for the last five years is 14 million guns kinda falls short some 6 million.

The latest findings suggest that developing countries often associated with violence show the greatest reduction in weapons held per capita: an indication that gun ownership may continue to correlate with rising levels of wealth.

So basically, the poorest the country then the less guns. The richer the country, more guns.  It makes sense Socialist countries hates for the serfs to have guns and they are miserable because of rampant crime.

I have to go back to that number: 393 million weapons in the US, 40% of the guns in the planet are in our homes.  More and more the idea of Gun Control in the US is simply a dream of dancing unicorns and skating Pegasus.

And yes, we are a cancer…for Socialists all over the world.

 

 

Hillary forgot the lessons from the past

Via Say Uncle.

 “The gun lobby spent about $30 million against me, not having the guts to take on specific gun proposals,” Clinton said. “In fact, their ads had nothing to do with guns. They were just outright lies.”

Hillary Clinton Honored With Courageous Leadership Award in SF

I am guessing her ailments made her forgot the comments of her husband admitting they never paid much attention to the power the NRA could have in the presidential elections where her buddy Al Gore lost.

At least after losing the election, Al Gore went of to a successful career in Carbon Credits (coughbullshitcough) and an award winning “documentary”. Hillary did not fare equally well.
