Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

When you try very hard to yell RACISM! but the facts do not help.

The was a mass killing in Ohio 3 days ago. I had heard something about the event of some white guy with the obligatory AR 15 (actually a Hi Point carbine in .45 ACP) killing injuring 4 people and I just checked the latest info.

BEAVERCREEK, Ohio (WXIX) – The FBI says it is continuing to investigate the factors that may have led to the Nov. 20 shooting that wounded four people at a Walmart in Beavercreek.

“Based on evidence collected, including journal writings from the attacker, Benjamin Charles Jones, the attack may have been at least partially inspired by Racially Motivated Violent Extremist (RMVE) ideology,” said FBI officials.

Finally! We have a bonafide racist in our midst!

I checked the definition of RMVE and found the following:

Racially and ethnically motivated violent extremism (REMVE) refers to a loosely organized movement of individuals and groups that espouse some combination of racist, anti-Semitic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, misogynistic, and homophobic ideology. REMVE actors see their race or ethnicity under threat and promote the use of or engage in violence against a given population group. The majority of REMVE actors are motivated by cultural nationalism or White supremacy—beliefs that Caucasian or “Aryan” peoples represent superior races, and that “White culture” is superior to other cultures.

Oh boy! This is the poster boy the Left was looking for to prove the pervasive White Supremacy culture permeating every nook and cranny of the racist U S of A.

But let us get back to the original article.

A media release says the victims are a Caucasian female, two African-American females, and a Caucasian male.

So, the asshole shooter was actually evenly split in racial lines about who he killed. Why bother with the lie? Simple, guess which piece of info will be transmitted faster via Social Media? That the asshole shooter was a White Supremacist or that the victims were not actually all minorities?

And that’s all they want or need.

There are better options.

Seemingly, there is no winning. Either nod along politely or engage, thus running the likely odds of escalating a conflict that ends ugly for all present parties. But there are other viable options when confronted with a miserable liberal on Thanksgiving. Consider one or all of the following, depending on the subject’s level of hostility.

I have two options in my arsenal. Number one is if I am at somebody’s house and the host is not doing anything: I leave.

Number two is if I am the host. I point at the door and give them 30 seconds to vacate the premises and be at least 1,000 yards from the festivities. If they know me, they will be no “or else what?” If they don’t know me, they will find out.

Some lessons are learned in the principle of fear.

 

 

My worry is that if that they will forget what drove them to take their safety seriously when this particular cycler dies down (if it does) stop training and put the guns away or sell them.

Safety is an active state of mind and continuous work, not a “feeling” of wellness and respite.

P. Get ready for a history lesson about “what the founders really intended” from some dumb motherfucker who was stoned through every history class in high school.

Go read the whole thing.

Teaching Humility and Teaching to Survive.

J. Kb.’s post about Brazilian Jiu Jitsu made me laugh.

If he really learned anything about humility, he would not be preening about his knowledge of BJJ.

Guns are for Cowards who want power? I guess armies go to war with bare hands and win battles with grappling techniques.

He used guns, he must have been a coward.

“Mastering BJJ takes decades of intense practice” while learning how to defend yourself with a firearm takes hours. Whomever this guy is I am almost sure he has never had to deal with overwhelming danger and actually have a belly-full of the fear that comes from knowing you are about to be injured and I mean hospital-staying injury or even death. He believes he will be ninja enough to take down a mob of assholes attacking him because he is the reincarnation of Helio Gracie or be graced with an asshole or assholes that will not pull a trigger till he makes his moves.

And truthfully, if he meets his demise taking on a challenge he shouldn’t, I don’t mind and probably laugh. What I worry about are the people who will follow his advice, get into the sport and either believe themselves invincible or quit early on and remain defenseless because “guns are for cowards.”
