As like the old one, it is purely decorative but the new versions is done via 3D Printer.

And OK, they look cool.

I am sure the soldiers will welcome less weight on their heads for prolonged hours.

We use the expression “From my cold dead hands” and I realize the other side does not understand it. In fact they don’t get that the moment we stop talking about our hands, they better start worrying about the future temperature of theirs.

This is a photo I got from the #NoRa feed in Twitter.

Front and center we have a lady identifying with NoRA. At her left we have a feminist with the National Organization for Women. The gentleman to the right is identifying with Everytown. We close the list with a pink pussy hat and a guy wearing the t-shirt for the democratic Representative of Texas’s 16th Congressional District that included El Paso, Beto O’Rourke (D).

So many groups with so many alleged members and NoRA could not muster 100 people.

This is the kind of stuff we need to tell our legislators. Gun Control may have the media and the economical pressure, but the do not have the hard votes. Go against us at your own electoral peril.

David Hogg tweeted about the NRA-AM.

The NRA is scared- that's why they brought out the President and the VP for the first time to their convention.

The young people will win. #USAoverNRA

This is beyond ridiculous… unless you see things from his point of view.

The March for Our Lives was created using the Parkland kids by a coalition  of Left Wing activist groups including The Women’s March, MoveOn.org, Everytown for Gun Safety, and funded by wealthy Progressive celebrities and business people – Michael Bloomberg, George Clooney, and George Sorors among them.

So Hogg’s experience in political activism is very top down and authoritarian.

He assumes that his enemies, the NRA, are structured the same.  So to him, the President and Vice President of the US are there as part of the top down mobilization effort.

He cannot fathom that the NRA is made up of five six million US citizens lobbying the government, that we still believe is “by the people for the people,” for what we want by reaching deep into our own pockets to create record donations.

It’s like a fish trying to understand what it means to be wet.

We’re not bringing out the POTUS and VP to assure us.  We’re bringing out the POTUS and VP as a show of strength.  We have the power to bring the two most powerful men in the country to our annual meeting to remind them the might we can wield on election day.

There is a scene in the movie Doctor Zhivago that has always stuck with me.

The Doctor comes home after the war to find his family’s home being divided up into housing for other Soviet families.  The people being put into the house are poor so they are looting everything.  Doctor Zhivago watches this in horror and watches as the Commissars let it happen.  The Doctor is then allowed to live in the master bedroom of what was once his house.

I can’t find the whole scene on YouTube but just the following scene which captures when one of the Commissars scolds him for having too much.

I bring this up because Michael Moore tweeted this:

Happy 200th Birthday Karl Marx! You believed that everyone should have a seat at the table & that the greed of the rich would eventually bring us all down. You believed that everyone deserves a slice of the pie. You knew that the super wealthy were out to grab whatever they could

His assets were listed as part of his divorce in 2014.

He owns nine houses and had a net worth of over $50 million.  It has likely grown since then.

The one upside to a Socialist Revolution in the United States is this.

Michel Moore going to one of his nine houses to find a bunch of Antifa thugs looting it and squatting in its many bedrooms.  Then when he starts bitching about it, one Antifa thug taking his fat ass outside and shooting him the back of the head.

If there is anybody in America that deserves to experience “true Socialism” first hand, it’s him.

Her own words:

Let’s go to the video replay! See it all, but the juicy part starts at 01:00

So @Alyssa_Milano wants to see the unedited video of her and her armed guards “printing”. I have no idea who she is talking to at first, @rangerholton respectfully chimes in. Watch. Also Alyssa please answer why you lied about having no armed guards. #NRAAM2018 #nra @NRATV pic.twitter.com/BuHsvDB9BG

I (badly) made an animated GIF of the obvious printing.

I have not seen that much printing since I was working with my father’s Multilth Offset. If Stop and Frisk was still a thing in NYC, he would have been tasting pavement in no time.

Of course, the excuse will be that he had a colostomy bag… tactical, of course.

NRA ILA was passing these along to cover the ugly Yeti logo of your coolers.
