“I would never have thought I’d see the LGBTI community siding with incredibly conservative, right-wing, pro-gun advocates that have been publicly homophobic and transphobic — that didn’t make any sense,” Abboud explained.
But after meeting some of the gun club’s members, Abboud said, there was a real fear that had only been stoked by the country’s rabid political landscape.

Gay Americans are arming themselves to stay alive

There as never a real dichotomy. There was (and still exist) a mountain-full of bullshit associated with Second Amendment Activism and its alleged hate for Gays. Pulse was a wake up call for many Gays who came to realize that nobody is there to protect them when the harm comes and even the sad realizations that they would be abandoned and bleed to death by the authorities.

The massacre in Orlando pushed some to actually look for not just buy a gun but to train with it for Self-Defense. Surprisingly, heir side came down hard on them for wanting to exercise the most basic of rights and it was only when they dared to seek help with the Evil “White & Racist” gun owners that they encountered a word they were not expecting: Welcome.

They encountered people of all colors, religions and even (gasp) sexual orientations that not only guided them in the basic of firearms but encouraged them to become responsible gun owners. And even for those who were a bit afraid of interacting  with any stranger at the range, Operation Blazing Sword a network of nationwide instructors created by a bonafide member of the LGBTQ community for the LGBTQ community.

At the end, the decision is rather simple: Do you side with those who want you unarmed and ready for victimization? or, Do you become responsible for your own safety?

So here I am trying to write a nice post about Gwen Graham when J. Kb. beats me to it.

Gwen Graham’s pedigree runs deeply anti-gun. Her father is former Governor and Senator Bob Graham who in 1985 vetoed Florida’s Concealed Weapons Law. It was not till he departed office and a new governor was in that the law that would shake America’s self Defense and Second Amendment landscape became law.

She is a purely political animal, raised in the halls of power in Tallahassee and worked for Howard (The Scream) Dean and John (Ugly Jane Fonda) Kerry. So, she would very much likely try to pull the Declaration of Emergency stunt, but other than a heart laugh and sinking the state of Florida in a slew of lawsuits and petitions for the application of  Section 17 of the Florida Constitution, she would not accomplish much.

But at least she can move forward knowing that she has David Hogg’s seal of approval.

This is supposedly a list of every school shooting.

I’m calling bullshit.

Remember, you have broken no laws, committed no crimes, and hurt no one, but you must be denied your Second Amendment rights.

However if you are a felon, once you are out of prison, you should get to vote again.

So sayeth the Hogg.

PLEASE RT: Do you think people that have gone through the justice system and served their time deserve the right to vote?

The only civil liberties you should have are the ones that support his side.

I don’t think David Hogg’s real father is the former FBI agent Kevin Hogg.

I think David Hogg was grown in a secret DNC cloning lab from the DNA of Shannon Watts and Jesse Jackson.

The kid is an over-the-top shakedown artist.

After Publix, he’s going after Disney.

It’s D for die in https://t.co/YAYt7dv8uB

If that doesn’t work, he’s going to stage these die ins as often as he can until somebody caves to him.

So @marcorubio @tedcruz @SpeakerRyan do die-ins need to become monthly? Or should they become as often as mass shootings?

This is why he’s not going to college, he’s going to die in everywhere for a year.

It’s an extortion racket and this kid is shameless in it.

David Hogg retweeted this with glee.

A bunch of shit kids held a die in at the office of Senator Ted Cruz.

Why?  Because law abiding Texas gun owners had anything to do with the Parkland or Pulse shootings?

No, it’s because partisan politics.

The Senator was not in his office.  He was attending meetings elsewhere.  What did one little shit do?

Steal all the Starburst off a staffer’s desk in an act of petty vengeance.

Of course all the anti-gun shits on this kid’s twitter feed loved it as much as Hogg did.

This is where we are at now with these kids.  They don’t schedule a meeting with the proper channels.  They show up when the Senator is out.  They stage a petulant protest in the Senators office.  When they don’t get the impromptu meeting they demand, they steal a staffer’s candy.

These kids have no maturity what so ever, yet they and the Democrats think they should be able to tell us how to run our lives.

Gwen Graham is a former Florida Representative and is currently a Democrat candidate for governor.

This is what she said during a debate:

“My commitment to you is action, not words. I have found a public safety statute [Graham’s staff later identified it as Florida Statute 14.022, which allows the Governor to take emergency action to quell violence] that allows the Governor, whoever she may be, to sign an executive order for public safety reasons banning the sale of military assault weapons.”

This is the text of the first part of FL 14.022.  It’s too long to post here in its entirety.

14.022 Governor; emergency powers to quell violence.—
(1) The Governor of Florida is hereby authorized and empowered to take such measures and to do all and every act and thing which she or he may deem necessary in order to prevent overt threats of violence or violence, to the person or property of citizens of the state and to maintain peace, tranquillity, and good order in the state, and in any political subdivision thereof, and in any area of the state designated by the Governor.

(2) The Governor when, in her or his opinion, the facts warrant, shall, by proclamation, declare that, because of unlawful assemblage, violence, overt threats of violence, or otherwise, a danger exists to the person or property of any citizen or citizens of the state and that the peace and tranquillity of the state, or any political subdivision thereof, or any area of the state designated by the Governor, is threatened, and because thereof an emergency, with reference to said threats and danger, exists.

This provision of the law is to empower the governor to stop a riot or perhaps looting after a hurricane.  It authorizes the governor to call on the militia, military (National Guard), sheriffs, highway patrol, and other state offices to quell the problem.

Graham, in the tradition of dictators everywhere, wants to use powers only available during an emergency to bypass the normal political process and impose her will, by falsely declaring an emergency.

She doesn’t want to bother with the normal law making process.  There is a chance Florida wouldn’t pass and AWB.  So she has a pen and a phone and is going “emergency power” an AWB into place.

She wants to get elected and pass her own Reichstag Fire Decree because of the Parkland shooting.  Her message is “vote for me to put the boot on the throat of the people you don’t like.”

It’s horrifying to see a candidate openly admit that she wants to abuse her power for strictly partisan political purposes.
