Moms Demand having a fit

and our friends at the Coalition To Stop Gun Viloence

And even the vanishing Brady Campaign chimes in:

Plus the Daily Beast, the HuffPo and Media Matters for America are chiming in as the Club of the Highly Offended and Very Scared Liars. The issue? A new bill in the Georgia legislature that they say will allow felons to carry guns, shoot innocent people and get away with it because Stand Your Ground….huh?

I found a version of the offending bill and the closest I could come up to the general zip code of what these idiots are talking about is this:

16-11-138.
 Defense of self or others, as contemplated by and provided for under Article 2 of Chapter 3 of Title 16, shall be an absolute defense to any violation under this part.”

But already in the books in Georgia and not affected by this addendum as far as I ca see (O.C.G.A. § 16-3-21 Use of force in defense of self or others; evidence of belief that force was necessary in murder or manslaughter prosecution) states that:

(b) A person is not justified in using force under the circumstances specified in subsection (a) of this Code section if he:
(2) Is attempting to commit, committing, or fleeing after the commission or attempted commission of a felony
So WTH is going on? Why the sudden lust after this bill? If you read the bill, it is a nuclear strike against Gun Control in Georgia.  Twenty six pages of eliminating stupid and proven-useless restrictions, favoring self-defense for Law Abiding Citizens and putting criminals on the defensive.  I would call this our version of the SAFE Act plus Colorado & Connecticut Laws all at once.  This has to be chaffing the communal underpanties of all Gun Control groups something fierce so that is why suddenly they felt the need to temporarily unite in the effort.

Georgia Governor Nathan Deal has an NRA ILA rating of ‘A” but I am not up to Georgia politics and have no idea if he will sign or not the bill into law. If he does, good for the state and we can say that It Was The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia for Gun Control Groups.

There you go folks. Scientific proof and that way you can shut the idiots off once and for all.  Get your own.  😀

One of the ways the Opposition does its bidding is to create a false narrative (Yes, they lie) about a proposed piece of legislation making it look like it is the end of the world as they know it, but they almost never provide a link to the actual text of the legislation. They do this in the correct belief that most people will take their word for it and that will not take their time actually reading the bill in question.

I have made it a point (when I darn remember) of including the text any gun bill in a post for my readers to examine.   We are a smart bunch and we can interpret what we read without making too many mistakes. It also allows other to double-check what we say and make sure we are not interpreting something the wrong way. Lord know I have been corrected before and it has been all for our betterment.

Although more specifically to those Gun Bloggers that deal mostly in Gun Rights but I also think any gun blogger, even if they only deal with exotic guns of the Renaissance and do not like to delve into politics,  can either link to their local legislatures or to a Gun Rights Blogger of his/her state who is keeping an eye on the bills, specially when this year gun control groups are targeting more bad laws at state level forsaking the Federal laws.

Plus, it is a true enjoyment to see how gun control cultists get all twisted and shut up when you get to confront them with the facts. Apparently they seem to have a genetic allergy to that particular virus.

Remember, we are not in the fight to convince the raving Anti Gunner, but to get those who are not decided yet or may have a weak inclination on either side to vote our way.  Truth and facts are our best weapons.

As with anything having to deal with life and death, mindset is the key. Ukrainians quickly realized that peaceful protests and singing “We Shall Overcome” with a balalaika was not getting them anywhere but to having their asses kicked. They made the conscious and for many deadly decision to pump the volume to 11 on the aggressive side of things. Things there are still not over,  specially with the threat of Putin sending troops to “reclaim” Ukraine but the dictator was finally forced out.

Venezuela in the other hand is playing the tired old game of “Peaceful Demonstrations have Moral Superiority.” Apparently it has not dawned on them that this particular game only works if your intended target has what it is known as Morality. President Maduro has had no qualms on sending Regulars to quells by “Less Lethal” means dissension and he is also sending Irregulars to use more permanent solutions and terrorize folks into submission and silence. The last official numbers are 28 dead,  over 360 wounded and about a thousand arrested.  There is a good record of the injuries and deaths caused by the government goons in the internet, but that is just that: a record.

Other than erecting flimsy barricades, the methods used to counter government forces have been throwing rocks, running away and tossing paint bombs to obscure the view of armored personnel carriers sent to dissolve protests. The Ukrainians went a different way regarding APCs:

But finally in Venezuela, they have decided to step up the game against those infernal machines and against the goons. I found this “tactical” instruction in Twitter not long ago:
The underlined passage states to “Fill mayo or baby food jars with “cat, dog or human feces” kid you not, that is the new strategy.  Shit washes off, pellets & bullets tend to leave a much lasting impression and the Government knows it.

And if anyone out there is asking him and herself “Wait. Isn’t Venezuela an Oil Producing country? Gasoline is pretty cheap down there. How come we don’t see Molotov cocktails being used like cheap cologne?” And the answer would be…. I don’t know. Maybe they are afraid of hurting those who are trying to maim and kill them and lose the alleged moral superiority they think they have.

It shall make for a nice inscription in their tombstones.

This is not just cool but an amazing training tool. And will provide you with endless embarrassment but that is also good.

Now, if I could just make a decent backstop in my very small backyard, I’d be willing to piss the neighbors off and shoot to my heart’s content.

Apparently, The Fates are conspiring against Moms Demand or they are simply to dumb (Or think its followers are ) they choose some really stupid headlines to push their indoctrination:

Dead or wounded by the Open Carry demonstration: Zero.

I’ll let the next pic speak for itself.
Geez! That little shindig that the Moms were attending was more dangerous that all those blood-thirsty bully neanderthals that got together to threaten Moms with activism. And that is what Shannon Watts and her Moms Demand call “Normal” and we are the Eeeevil ones like we were wearing black helmets with a face mask and a black cape.

Dear Bradys: What is ridiculous is that a so-called-doctor gets his ideas about guns from Saturday Morning Cartoons.

When I read about this “doctor”, I remembered a joke:

I like to pick up hitchhikers. When they get in the car I say, “Put on your seat belt. I want to try something. I saw it once in a cartoon, but I think I can do it.”

At least Steven Wright is funny, this other clown is not.
