When you encourage bad behavior…

…your taxpayers will pay the bills. Then again, you don’t give a shit because it is not your money.

In all, the migrants presented 13 demands to the city of Denver. Messages shared with FOX31 show the demands are:

  1. Migrants will cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients provided by the City instead of premade meals – rice, chicken, flour, oil, butter, tomatoes, onions, etc… Also people will not be punished for bringing in & eating outside food.
  2. Shower access will be available without time limits & can be accessed whenever – we are not in the military, we’re civilians.
  3. Medical professional visits will happen regularly & referrals/connections for specialty care will be made as needed.
  4. All will receive the same housing support that has been offered to others. They cannot kick people out in 30 days without something stable established.
  5. There needs to be a clear, just process before exiting someone for any reason – including verbal, written & final warnings.
  6. All shelter residents will receive connection to employment support, including work permit applications for those who qualify.
  7. Consultations for each person/family with a free immigration lawyer must be arranged to discuss/progress their cases, & then the City will provide on-going legal support in the form of immigration document clinics & including transportation to relevant court dates.
  8. The City will provide privacy for families/individuals within the shelter.
  9. No more verbal or physical or mental abuse will be permitted from the staff, including no sheriff sleeping inside & monitoring 24/7 – we are not criminals & won’t be treated as such.
  10. Transportation for all children to & from their schools will be provided until they finish in 3 weeks.
  11. No separating families, regardless of if family members have children or not. The camp will stay together.
  12. The City must schedule a meeting with the Mayor & those directly involved in running the Newcomer program ASAP to discuss further improvements & ways to support migrants.
  13. The City must provide all residents with a document signed by a City official in English & Spanish with all of these demands that includes a number to call to report mistreatment.

The city continues to bring buses to the encampment for any migrants choosing to leave the encampment and go to a congregate shelter or hotel.

When CW2 happens, these people will pick clean the corpses of those idiots who accepted their demands and will take over their possessions.

We had a bit of rain last night.

Middle TN got pounced yesterday afternoon and into the night. Tornado hit the Columbia and Spring Hill area which was freaky since I was working around there till 2 pm.

And then we got a deluge at Oh Dark Hundred with accompanying light and sound show.

That is one side of the house, and I am going to say about up to 14 inches of standing water by the trees on the left.

I was talking with the neighbors across the street when this dude actually came at us with an attitude.

Good thing I am not into crustacean morsels.

He was released back into the flooded fields, and I believe he did not like it much from all the underwater trashing.

Real “Sensitive” Places

When talking about sensitive places, the state takes the position that who or what might be in that location is what makes that place “sensitive”.

This is just a dumb way of infringing on The People’s right to keep and bear arms.

We will ignore property rights at this junction, just to simplify the discussion.

My yard is not a “sensitive” place. No matter who might enter my yard, there is nothing that would make it a place where I should be kept from bearing an arm.

The same goes for the street in front of my house. Nor anyplace along that street.

But what about a school? A school is full of “vulnerable” people, children. Having vulnerable people doesn’t make the place sensitive. For example, what if the school was empty of students, and you were attending a meeting with a bunch of crazy liberal/leftists? Like school administrators and teachers?

The park is not a sensitive place, nor is the town hall nor the public parts of the police fortress.

What makes a place “sensitive”, is whether the government has taken responsibility for providing security and that security is comprehensive.

For example, a courtroom. The state has the responsibility for providing the security, in the form of armed security. They people are disarmed before entering the courtroom. The courtroom is secured at all entry points to prevent people from bypassing the security screening.

In addition, that place should only be made a sensitive place if it provides a safe location outside the security parameter for you to secure your arms.

This means that my pooling place is not a sensitive location. The state does not provide any real security.

This means that airports, outside security checkpoint are not sensitive places.

In addition, the areas beyond the security checkpoint are also not sensitive places. This is because the TSA does a shit job of screening. TSA’s security record is so poor that El Al still performs their security screenings of all passengers.

An El Al aircraft is a sensitive place.

Mark Smith has spoken many times about the relationship between sensitive places and Supreme Court cases. The commonality in the locations singled out by the Supreme Court as sensitive is that they provide comprehensive security.

Victorinox to create the Ken Doll of Pocket Knives

For more than a century, the Swiss army knife has been an essential piece of kit for everyone from picnickers and equestrians, to golfers and astronauts.

But now the maker of the pocket-knife, with its red or blue shell and multiple tools, has bowed to what an English judge last week called the “plague of knife crime” by designing a new range without blades.

In response to an increasing number of countries imposing bans or restrictions on carrying knives, Victorinox, the Swiss firm that produces the pocket tools, is in the early stages of developing the first range of bladeless products designed specifically for activities where a blade would not be required.

New York to outlaw Glocks – Update

Let’s look at New York Senate Bill S9225.

An act to amend the penal law, in relation to the regulation of pistol converters and convertible pistols

Section 1 amends subdivision 1 of section 265.00 of the penal law, which defines “Machine-gun” and adds two new subdivisions 36 and 37 to that section to define the following terms: “Pistol converter”, and “Convertible pistol”.

Section 2 amends subdivision 10 of section 265.02 of the penal law, as added by Chapter 1 of the laws of 2013 by adding a new subdivision 11 that criminalizes the possession of any pistol converter.

1. “Machine-gun” means a weapon of any description, irrespective of size, by whatever name known, loaded or unloaded, from which a number of shots or bullets may be rapidly or automatically discharged from a magazine with one continuous pull of the trigger and includes a sub-machine gun, AND ALSO INCLUDES ANY CONVERTIBLE PISTOL THAT IS EQUIPPED WITH A PISTOL CONVERTER.

36. “PISTOL CONVERTER” MEANS ANY DEVICE OR INSTRUMENT THAT WHEN INSTALLED IN OR ATTACHED TO THE SLIDE OF A SEMI-AUTOMATIC PISTOL INTERFERES WITH THE TRIGGER MECHANISM AND THEREBY ENABLES THE PISTOL TO DISCHARGE A NUMBER OF SHOTS OR BULLETS RAPIDLY OR AUTOMATICALLY WITH ONE CONTINUOUS PULL OF THE TRIGGER.

37. “CONVERTIBLE PISTOL” MEANS ANY SEMI-AUTOMATIC PISTOL THAT CAN BE CONVERTED INTO A MACHINE-GUN SOLELY BY THE INSTALLATION OR ATTACHMENT OF A PISTOL CONVERTER.

If I read this correctly, any pistol that can be converted to full-auto by adding a converter is a machinegun according to this bill, regardless of whether or not it has been converted.

Since this bill is in direct response to the availability of aftermarket Glock switches, that means that every Glock is would be classified as a machinegun.

If a converter is created for other striker or hammer fired pistols, those models, too, would be reclassified as machineguns by virtue of the existence of converters.

Presumably, AR pistols would also be illegal machineguns, assuming you have a NY SAFE compliant model that’s been registered, duty to the existence of lightning links.

In the end, this bill seeks to ban the most popular handgun in America, and possibly many other models, due to the existence of an already illegal aftermarket accessory, even of your don’t own or install the accessory.

New York will probably pass it, the ensuing court fight will be where New Yorkers possibly get a reprieve.

Update:

Based on the number of comments I read, I want to highlight a piece of relevant text.

“CONVERTIBLE PISTOL” MEANS ANY SEMI-AUTOMATIC PISTOL THAT CAN BE CONVERTED INTO A MACHINE-GUN SOLELY BY THE INSTALLATION OR ATTACHMENT OF A PISTOL CONVERTER.

“That can be converted” is the kicker.

A Glock can be converted into full auto by the addition of a switch.

That section of text makes it clear that installing a switch is not required. If the model gun can be converted by installing a switch, that is sufficient to be a machinegun.

Yes, it’s bad law. So is thr NY SAFE Act. That didn’t stop New York from passing it.
