It was great to see so many of you have been advocates for the Second Amendment. More of you have testified than I expected to see.

Thanks to all of you that fight the good fight.

We had a couple of articles this week that were not authored by your normal hosts. Thank you to SkinnedKnuckles for his article about working to get an actual firearm safety program started in the local school system.

The other outside article was the blurb from Michel Associates, PC. That was more interesting to me. I had reached out to the helpdesk at the firm and expected to end up communicating with some public relations person. To have the first response come from the senior partner was shocking to me.

Is it of interest to you to get short articles about groups and firms that are fighting for the Second?

The Second Circuit court hard oral arguments on 5 Second Amendment cases on Monday. We are now in a wait and see holding pattern. We can make a couple of different assumptions about the judges, they could all be anti-gun, they could all be pro-gun, they could just be ignorant, or they could just be following the law.

If they are anti-gun they are going to ask if it is in the best interest of the infringers to find for the state or the plaintiffs. If they find for the state the plaintiffs will appeal to the Supreme Court and that would be bad for gun rights infringers. If they find for the plaintiffs the state might not appeal but might instead change the law to require a relitigation.

If they are anti-gun rights I can almost bet that it will take a long time for them to reach an opinion.

If they are pro-gun or just following the law they will find for the plaintiffs and the state will have to decide if they want to play in the Supreme Court, again, after just being slapped down in Bruen.

If they are ignorant, we are going to end up with case law that is going to be hard to deal with. This might be the worse case.

Thank you once again to all of our readers and thank you to all the people that found the article like button.

Because all of California’s gun laws didn’t stop this.

Because the presence of security cameras didn’t stop this.

Because the broken, politicized enforcement of the law (or lack there of) didn’t stop this.

Two people at the utter mercy of a robber, hoping and praying he wouldn’t pull the trigger.

Bruen reinforced the idea that people should br able to defend themselves.

Bruen must be enforced so that the people can effectively exercise that right.

Who would ever believe that a Rabbi with a blowtorch making a home kosher would go viral. Do not worry he is a trained professional, and just like you would not think twice about the guy who eats fire, juggles fire, jumps through fire, or is a stuntman in cars that blow up with fire , know that he trained with years of experience in Kosherizing kitchens and utensils. 28 years worth of experience in Koshering Kitchens including commercial kitchens, hotels, vacation homes and newly purchased homes. The only home that does not need ro be made kosher is one with a brand new kitchen that has not yet been touched by other food. This is obviously a several hour process and this reel was after everything was complete. It just touches upon the absolute “coolness” in going Kosher. #rabbis #rabbisoftiktok #rabbisofinstagram #kosher #kosherfood #viral #myhusband

In 1942, when the Holocaust began, the Jewish population of Germany was around 200,000 (men, women, children). The size of the German Wehrmacht was over 8 million (not counting police). Don't pretend that a small number of Jews with firearms could have prevented the Holocaust. https://t.co/28ElFY0qun pic.twitter.com/kLQF2POp5J

My meme:

We are the children of the “right now” age. I am old. I remember my mother going to the Grayhound bus depot and paying them to deliver two huge boxes to her hometown in the midwest. This was the only way to get a package that big that far in a reasonable amount of time.

Reasonable amount of time? About a week or so. At which point my grandparents would go to the bus depot to get pick up the packages.

When I was a child working on motorcycles I would create a parts list and then once a month we would go into the big city and I could purchase parts at the motorcycle dealership(s).

We would dig through our Scholastic book pamphlet and pick out the books we wanted. Three or four weeks later our books would arrive. We’d look though the Sear’s catalog and place an order. A few weeks later it would arrive.

The other day I needed replacement “Plackers”. I spent less than two minutes online to locate what I wanted, purchased more for much less than I could locally and they were delivered as soon as we had cleared our driveway.

Everything today happens quickly. I can send an email around the world in less time than it takes to print that same letter. I can have a response back before I close my email program.

My introduction to The Internet was when I noticed that if we dropped UUCP messages in one node in Michigan it would show up in California with a timestamp only seconds different than the arrival time.

We are spoiled. Everything should be moving as fast as online shopping and online communications.

Not everything is fast

I saw this and it made the blood pound in my ears.

According to his bio, he’s a historian and senior fellow with the ADL.

He’s also a fucking moron and a chicken-shit coward.

Yes, in 1942 the Wermacht had roughly eight million troops.

So the fuck what.

By 1942 the Wermacht was getting it’s frozen balls shot off in Russia, sandblasted in North Africa, fighting in France, and was occupying Poland and Czechoslovakia.

It was stretched thin on a three front war.

The Wermacht was not killing Jews.

That job fell on the German Order Police, the Ordnungspolizei.

The Order Police were mainly middle-class, middle-aged men who were not fit for frontline combat.

The Holocaust was mainly carried out by Order Police reservists.  Rounding up and shooting unarmed Jews was considered such a low risk job, far from combat that the men sent to do it were not combat troops.

The Order Police battalions that conducted the Holocaust numbered at most 95,000 men.

That’s less than half the Jews in Germany and much less than the 3.3 million Jews in Poland.

So it wouldn’t have been 200,000 Jews versus eight million Wermacht combat troops.

It would have been 3.5 million armed Jews versus 95,000 poorly trained police reservists who just want to get back to their kids at home.

I’m going to quote the Gulag Archipelago:

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Now do the math.

What would have happened if the Jews of Germany and Poland had been armed, and every time the reserve Order Police went to liquidate a Jewish village, five or six were killed?

How many times would that have to happen before these men just fucked off and refused to search homes for Jews?

Could the Holocaust been ground to a halt?

Could it have been slowed down a little?

How many Jewish lives could have been spared?

A good historian should understand this.

The problem is that the ADL has become a Leftist shill organization and would rather push gun control.

Fuck the ADL and fuck this guy.

I’m gonna keep my guns and teach my children how to stage and ambush with intersecting fields of fire.
