Faithful readers know of my hatred for modern art.

However, there is an old saying “a fool and his money are soon parted,” and progressives are nothing if not fools.

I have an idea to engage in a Sokal Affair-esque idea to make money off fools.

I am tempted to buy prints and statues of famous classical works, e.g., David, The Creation of Adam, The Birth of Venus, and attach to them fake rubber boobs and big, black… anatomically correct marital aids.

Then, claim that “I am making a statement against the Eurocentric, cis-normative, hetero-normative, patriarchal, white supremacism of ‘classical’ art, by making these iconic pieces, trans-racial and trans-gendered.”

I’m sure I could get a solid five or six figures of the collection in the right venue.

Yes, I will feel bad, but I will spend the money on a new big block V8 pickup and guns, to balance out my karma.

Leni Riefenstahl — Google her — would’ve been proud. As propaganda goes, this was a masterpiece, playing like Yo-Yo Ma on a Stradivarius the racial, religious, and cultural resentments that gave rise to our present president.Indeed, many observers saw the ad as a coded incitement to violence. One gun owner, commenting on Facebook, called it “disgusting.” Another said the NRA was “hate mongering.” Still, another called it a “terrorist” group.”

Leonard Pitts is a columnist for the Miami Herald, my local bird dropping catcher. He pretty much dislikes anybody at the right of Winnie Mandela and I would not be surprised if he has a picture of Patrice Lumumba illuminated by candles in his office. And, of course, if you are White, you are suspicious. If you are a person of color who does not agree with him, you are a traitor.

With minorities and women being the fastest growing segment of new Gun Owners, dear old Leonard here is afraid he won’t be able to use the “Fear The White Devil” shtick for much longer.
He knows it is not just owning the guns but becoming self-sufficient, not depending on somebody else for safety and people finding out he’s been lying to them for decades. And that has to be scaring him shitless.

Armed Citizens of ANY color simply cannot be intimidated easily and then you will face terrible consequences for doing so. A black person with a gun is not a threat to the NRA but to the Democratic Party Plantation Values.

More often than not, guns seized by police in criminal investigations are coming from someplace other than Maryland.”I would say approximately 60 percent statewide of firearms that are seized by Maryland law enforcement are not Maryland guns, that goes up exponentially in places like Baltimore City and Prince George’s County,” Lopez said.

Well, not quite. The ATF Firearms Trace 2015 for Maryland (No traces for 2016 available) shows a total of 8,139 guns recovered and “traced” but the term traced seems to include even when no result for origin was found. ATF tells us that only 5,498 guns were linked to a state. So Maryland State Police Sgt. Frank Lopez might not be “accurate” (cough) in his statement.

Now, let us peruse once again the ATF Trace Data for Maryland to see what we get….Surprise! (Not surprise)

With 2,913 guns traced, the State of Maryland is the first provider of firearms to its criminals.  Evil Gun Loose Virginia is the second provider with the diabolic number of 666 guns (The NRA is the Devil!) or almost 5 times less guns provided than the natives.

Listen, yes, there are criminals out there trafficking guns and we have covered here. We also covered that when they are caught, they get stupidly low sentences or community service which are no deterrents. But every time we have seen Brady and their local Fanbois trying to blame another state for the guns used in crime, we always catch them ignoring the data and parsing the language for their propaganda and alleged fund-raising purposes.

Oh well, The Bradys still have not learned their lessons.

It happens more times that people acknowledge.

I bet he does not do that again.

I don’t do “Awww” but I am short on ideas this week. And I like dobbies, so…
