Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
From April 7, 1994 till July 1994, an estimated 600,000 human beings were massacred with mostly farm hand tools. Possibly the biggest failure of the United Nations and in my opinion it killed whatever credibility they had to ensure or at least try to stop evil in the world.
“We are as Peace Keepers, not as Peace Makers.”
Reader 50calTX was kind enough to inform us Texas Gun Rights is an affiliate of NAGR and our “friend” Dudley brown. And yes, they appear as so in their website.
So they screwed Colorado with the 30 round magazine law and now Texas with Constitutional Carry.
If we could only direct a smidgen of the hate the Chest Thumpers have for the NRA to Dudley and company… but no because they call themselves NO COMPROMISE!® and that means they are good!
Two guys, a computer and a bottle of tequila on a Friday night.
“I am telling you, people will believe anything they see in the Internet.”
“Oh bullshit, I bet you I can come up with something nobody is gonna buy.”
“Like what?”
“I don’t know, pick two things random things.”
“<thinking> I know! Health Care and Common Carriers. Hell add Government to that!”
“Holy crap. That is hard!. Lemme see what can I come up with.”
One month later.

Start with a bill that makes certain parts of the political spectrum nervous such as Constitutional Carry. Add a pinch of RINO House Speaker of the House, stir at medium heat and then dump a heaping serving of stupid by going to his house, his private home to lobby for the bill. Shake well and:
Texas House Speaker Dennis Bonnen declared Friday that a “constitutional carry” gun bill was dead after a gun rights activist showed up at his Houston-area home to advocate for it.
Chris McNutt, executive director of Texas Gun Rights and a supporter of the legislation that would allow Texans to carry firearms without a license, showed up to Bonnen’s home in Lake Jackson on Wednesday to question why the bill had stalled, according to the Dallas Morning News.
And when you figure out the guy was not even home, just his wife and kid, you just created a Turd cake that is gargantuan in size.
State troopers intercept gun-rights activist at House Speaker Dennis Bonnen’s home.
Advocate’s actions kill bill allowing no-permit gun carry
Home visit by gun rights advocate alarms Texas lawmakers
And this is not something new. During the fight for Open Carry, there were some assholes that said some stupid stuff and the Texas House reacted in a bad way almost killing the bill that was ready to be approved on the first week or so of the session and then took herculean effort and was saved on the closing days of lawmaking process.
And for God and all the Little Angels, what was Chris McNutt thinking? Was he unaware of the Antifa fiasco at the home of Tucker Carlson? We hate opening our doors* for unsolicited crap like Jehovah Witnesses or kids selling magazines or offering to cut our lawn and he really thought it would be well received after hours to lobby for a bill the RINO did not like to begin with?
This is the perfect definition of Chest Thumper: A moron that goes for the tough guy imagery (Muh’ Rights!™) but has neither substance nor the smarts to see it does not help the cause or actually damages it.
And the headline should be rewritten to Texas Gun Advocate Kill Constitutional Carry Bill for acting like an asshole.

Remember how in less than two weeks after the Christchurch Mosque shooting, the government of New Zealand ended their citizens’ gun rights privileges.
Well, Oceania was always at war with Eastasia.
Schoolboy in custody on Christchurch terror video charge
A Christchurch schoolboy arrested for allegedly distributing objectionable material from the mosque terror attacks has been kept in custody for another month.
The teenager, who cannot be named because of legal reasons, first appeared in the Youth Court in Christchurch last Thursday.
He was refused bail and was remanded in custody.
The Herald understands police were alerted after concerns about his behaviour.
The boy’s school cannot be named and his principal declined to comment, referring inquiries to police.
Police also refused to comment.
Today, the boy’s lawyer, Moana Cole, applied for the teen to be released on electronically monitored (EM) bail.
However, Judge Stephen O’Driscoll refused the application.
Discussions in court today were also suppressed by the judge, along with his reasons for declining bail.
The boy was remanded in custody to come back to court on May 7.
He waved to family members who were in court today before he was taken back into custody.
There have been other unrelated cases before the courts since the Christchurch terror attacks.
Christchurch businessman Philip Neville Arps, 44, appeared in court last week on charges of distributing footage of one of the mosque shootings.
Arps, who runs an insulation business, faces two charges of distributing the livestream “of the multiple murder victims at the Deans Ave Mosque”.
The Chief Censor’s office has classified the shooter’s live stream and so-called manifesto as objectionable under the Films, Video and Publications Classifications Act. The charges have a maximum penalty of 14 years in prison.
Arps was declined bail and remanded in custody until his next appearance on April 15.
Holy-fucking-shit!
A school kid and a business man have both been arrested and denied bail for having a copy of a video.
They were denied bail. Let that sink in. New Zealand now treats people who have the Mosque shooter’s video or manifesto WORSE than suspected rapists and murderers.
It is better for you kill someone in New Zealand than to watch a video of some whack-job killing other people.
New Zealand in not alone. Australia is rushing to not be left behind in the tyrannical takeover of the southern commonwealths.
Australia To Criminalize Failure To Remove Violent Content From Internet Platforms
Australia’s parliament has passed new legislation to criminalize Internet platforms for failing to remove violent videos and audio, after an Australian gunman livestreamed himself shooting worshippers in two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Under the new legislation, social media executives — among other online content or hosting providers — could be imprisoned for up to three years and companies could face penalties of up to 10 percent of their annual revenue if they do not remove violent content in an “expeditious” manner.
“The horror of that act was brought to the world in real time and the platforms that were used to connect with the world were turned against us to amplify the shooter’s message of hate and intolerance,” Porter told the parliament on Thursday, according to transcripts.
Porter said the legislation is intended to make companies take responsibility for the spread of video or audio of “abhorrent violent conduct” — defined as terrorism, murder, attempted murder, torture, rape and kidnapping.
Scott Farquhar, CEO of Sydney-based software company Atlassian, said the bill would make any person working at a company that allows uploads of videos or images “guilty until proven innocent.”
“They need to violate users’ privacy to police this,” he wrote on Twitter.
The legislation would apply to material from content or hosting services provided outside of Australia if that material is reasonably accessible within Australia.
The bill also requires companies to notify Australian Federal Police “within a reasonable time after becoming aware of the existence” of video or audio of violent conduct occurring within Australia.
Australia wants social media and video hosing sites to monitor and censor the internet in real time or Australia will send their executives to prison and bankrupt the companies.
Here is a fun fact: There are 300 hours of video uploaded to YouTube per minute.
That is just YouTube.
Exactly how are companies supposed to monitor the content of every video uploaded online across multiple sites across the internet in an expeditious enough way to satisfy the Australian government?
The boot is stamping hard in the face in Australia and New Zealand, and the Left in America is hailing them as the champions of doing something.
First you are going to turn in your guns, then you are going to go to jail for sharing a video cut making fun of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
