In George Orwell’s magnum opus, 1984, The Party said:

War is Peace

Freedom is Slavery

Ignorance is Strength

These phrases were so transparently wrong that anyone would believe them was the point.  They demonstrated the level of brainwashing the citizens of Oceania had been subject to.

It’s in that spirit of dishonesty that Gavin Newsom launched his initiative to ratify the 28th Amendment.

NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis.

The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction.

The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms — while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact:

Here is the text in full:

NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis.

The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction.

The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms — while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact:

1) Raising the minimum age to purchase a gun to 21

2) Universal background checks

3) A reasonable waiting period for gun purchases

4) Banning the civilian purchase of assault weapons

Gun safety freedoms that restrict gun rights.  Thats orwellian.

This would be the second time the Constitution was used to restrict the rights of the people and expand the power pf the government over them.  The last was the 18th Amendment, which imposed prohibition.

That was an utter disaster that created America’s greatest crime wave and set in motion a long history of gun control.

Had it not been for the Roaring 20s, brought on by prohibition, the NFA might never had been passed.

Newsom want to impose prohibition on “assault weapons,” a nebulous and meaninglessness term.  Just image the crime wave that will cause.

And, of course, he makes the ludicrous claim that these restrictions don’t impose on the Second Amendment.  Clearly his interpretation of the Second Amendment is not one of personal gun rights.

The good news is more than half the states in America are now Constitutional carry and it takes 2/3-rds of states to ratify a Constitutional Amendment.  The likelihood a Constitutional carry state will pass this is virtually zero.

He must know this has no chance of passing.

This is just the ultimate display of anti-guj virtue signaling.

Fuck him.

June 6 (Reuters) – The U.S. government cannot ban people convicted of non-violent crimes from possessing guns, a federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday.

The 11-4 ruling from the Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is the latest defeat for gun control laws in the wake of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year expanding gun rights nationwide.

The decision stems from a 2020 lawsuit by a Pennsylvania man, Bryan Range, who was barred under federal law from possessing a gun after pleading guilty to welfare fraud. He claimed the prohibition violated his right to bear arms under the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

This is monumental. I have been a supporter of allowing Non-violent felons for a long while now and besides the obvious rectification of Civil Rights violations, the cascade of crap that is sure to come and bathe government and Liberals is to be put on Pay-Per-View.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which enforces federal gun laws, declined to comment.

(IANAL WARNING)
I believe they will do their hardest to appeal and hopefully they will lose big time. Now just imagine the herculean labor that will represent to clear federal databases of non-violent felons or be subjected to massive quantities of lawsuits for violations of civil rights by the millions of individuals who were not able to complete a NICS checks because of some petty shit taken to Felony by local or federal governments. And that is not all: Anybody (a minority for sure) who got indicted/prosecuted/incarcerated for trying to buy a gun while being a non-violent felon may have a chance to sue the government for not only violating Civil Rights but costs, loss of income and wrongful imprisonment may be added to the legal cauldron.

It would be a cataclysmic legal clusterflock. This may end up clogging the ATF and the FBI for decades…which overall, does not seem like a bad idea after all.

Here is to it happening.

What I am about to tell you should be the most important story in America but no national media is talking about it. Read this entire tweet.

I spent six years if my life in beautiful South Dakota.  I still have friends there.

Going onto a man’s property without permission, especially into his home or shop, while armed, is a good way to get shot.

Farmers and ranchers protect their land fiercely, since it is the basis of their livelihood.

Anyone who attempts to seize their land by eminent domain is their enemy.  To do it so some company can get subsidies for carbon capture is even worse.  That not even a public good, that a grift.

I can guarantee that in a trial by his peers, any farmer that shoots an eminent domain surveyor won’t get convicted.

This situation has all the ingredients for an actual violent conflict.

Politicians fund carbon capture subsidies.  Carbon capture company funds politicians. Politicians allow carbon capture company to seize land from farmers to build carbon capture facility that gets more in subsidy money.  Carbon capture company donates more to politicians.  Farmers get kicked off their own land.

There have been rebellions in this country for less.

Ideologically, most people will come down on the side of the farmers.

South Dakotans might just prove how important the Second Amendment is as a bulwark against tyranny.

My great-grandfather was a railroad man and a union organizer. He and his family were always moving because the railroad didn’t like him organizing, but didn’t want to let go of him because he was good at his job. I know this history because my grandfather wrote his autobiography.

My great-great-grandfather, his son, and his son’s son (my grandfather) were all railroad men who either belonged to the union or were organizing for the union.

I’ve worked in “right to work states” and in states where joining the union was a requirement for being employed.

The unions did remarkable things when they started. I agree with many of those actions. The child labor laws, why created to protect jobs, were good things. Safety regulations which were about safety were a good thing. Even some of the wage work was good.

Today, I find that most Unions are greedy sinkholes. What they are there to do is protect the income of the higher ups in the union. They do not seem to act in balanced ways.

My wife is a teacher, when the local union rep was recruiting, in a mandatory staff meeting called for the union to recruit, my wife asked the question I gave her “Who was the last Republican the union endorsed?” The rep could not give an answer.

According to my wife, there was a bit of quiet sniggering.

Because I follow the Supreme Court, I’ve noticed some good opinions coming out of the court recently.

—Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, 142 S. Ct. 2228 (2022) was the case that returned the question of abortion back to the state. —New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. V. Bruen, 142 S.Ct. 2111 (U.S. 2022) told the state that the Second Amendment wasn’t a second class amendment that could be balanced away. —West Virginia v. EPA, 142 S. Ct. 2587 (2022) told the state that the executive branch had to actually have congress create laws, not just make a rule.

These were three powerful opinions. They returned power to the state and the people. Of course, those that want government control were very upset.

All of this brings us to a leftist meltdown: Americans want to join unions. The supreme court doesn’t like that—Moira Donegan, Americans want to join unions. The supreme court doesn’t like that, The Guardian (Jun. 2023) I’m not sure where she got that the Supreme Court doesn’t like people joining unions. Maybe there is something else going on?

Thousands of women, many who are moms, gathered at the Colorado State Capital for an anti-gun event on Monday.

The group, “Here 4 The Kids,” wants Gov. Jared Polis to sign an executive order banning guns altogether, including law enforcement and the national guard, even though they know it violates United States and Colorado constitutions.

Colorado mothers hold sit-in to demand ban on all guns in violation of constitutions – CBS Colorado (cbsnews.com)

As we predicted many years ago, the issue of the Constitution being in the way of Gun Control was going to be solved by simply ignoring and/or destroying the rest of the amendments. We are seeing this now live and in color on how they are redefining Free Speech not to include “Hate Speech” and they dictating what is hateful.

But I digress. I want to share the absolute idiocy that is the executive order they want Governor Polis to sign. Here is the full text for you to read (and laugh) but I will go ahead and comment on some sections:

I, Jared Polis, Governor of the State of Colorado, hereby issue this Executive Order declaring
a state of disaster emergency due to the gun violence risk in Colorado, enabling State
agencies to coordinate for response and mitigation efforts. This includes a total ban on all
guns and a comprehensive, mandatory buyback program.

Nothing new here, right? Trust me, it gets stupidly funny soon enough. After this paragraph, we are regaled with the usual twisted and incomplete stats showing why guns must be banned and that the poor little babies up to 19 years of age are being massacred by roaming guns or some such babbling idiocy.

Here is the begining of the “good stuff”:

A. Gun violence in Colorado is a disaster of human origin and constitutes a disaster under
C.R.S. § 24-33.5-701, et seq.
B. In response to the disaster emergency, I hereby ban the use, loading, possession or
carrying of all firearms in Colorado, including but not limited to firearms for personal
protection, hunting, law enforcement or any otherwise lawful purpose for as long as this
Executive Order shall remain in effect. I hereby also suspend C.R.S. § 18-12-105(2).

I have no idea who wrote this and the usual IANAL warning is hereby stated, but the way I am reading this implies that the use of firearms in an unlawful way is approved by Here 4 The Kids. Use your gun to defend your family from violent home invaders is verbotten, but if the same home invaders have guns and use them against you and your family, they are fine.

Oh yes! Cops no longer are armed: Defund the Police? Nay! De-Gun The Police? Yay!

Next they go into the Gun Buy (cough-confiscation-cough) Back program and the full-stop selling and transporting anything firearms related. Here is a section where you can see these are people living in a Trans Disney Princess world and not reality:

Such buy-back program shall be administered at minimum by each sheriff’s office in an unarmed
capacity.

And:

I further verbally authorize deployment and use of the Colorado National Guard in an
unarmed capacity for the purpose of assisting with planning and logistics related to the
mandatory gun buy-back program. Further, pursuant to C.R.S. § 28-3-104, authorizing
deployment and use of the National Guard in an unarmed capacity for the purpose of
assisting with planning and logistics related to the mandatory gun buyback program in
Colorado is hereby memorialized by this Executive Order and shall have the full force
and effect of law as if it were contained within this Executive Order

Talk about mass desertion and job abandonment the day before this cluster flock gets started. Again, nothing is said about the regular hardcore criminals, and I believe because it would jeopardize their cult belief to separate good people from the bad guys: In their religion, if you have a gun, you are an assassin, scum of the Earth, and deserve no pity.

Although I call it a joke, I am not going to dismiss them. It is not like they are an immediate danger, but they do are an indicator of where we are heading as a nation. Even the Governor of Colorado said the executive order is not possible:

The Governor takes the weighty responsibility of executive action and the trust Coloradans placed in him to govern responsibly seriously and will not issue an unconstitutional order that will be struck down in court simply to make a public relations statement — he will continue to focus on real solutions to help make Colorado one of the ten safest states.”

So, the true work for the Antis will be helping destroy the Constitution so such an executive order is thus viable. This is already being done in different fronts nd eventually will happen if measures are not taken. And none will be easy or cheap and I don’t mean monetarily alone.

And before I forget: Why leave the criminals out of the gun control equation? Because after they forbid the tools of self defense and violent crimes take off, they will need to re-arm police and military and exact extreme measures to “regain peace for the children.”

And we know how that movie ends.

Miguel send me this because he felt I needed a blood pressure test.

It’s real, not a photo shop.

That is a picture of Desmond Naples, who is a child drag queen who goes by Desmond is Amazing.

He’s been in TV and is notorious for dancing at a gay bar at 11-years-old, while adults threw dollars at him.

He’s now 16, but supposedly started this at age 5.  That picture looks like him at 11 when he first achieved notoriety.

This is where Pride has gone.

They are now calling prepubescent trans children “sexy.”

I consider myself a reasonably tolerant person.

I have no qualms about two men living together and filing their taxes jointly.

This is not that.

This is chipper fodder.
