Might as well go the full size and do the whole Jew-B-Gone with another pesticide from history: Zyklon B.

Do you still have doubts we would end on wagons heading East if we let them run the show?

I took my concern straight to their Facebook page. Nothing there to assuage me from my concerns.

For me this re the two top “Disconnected from reality” quotes from the exchange:

Rob Pincus: Actually, they are shaking in their boots, Miguel…..

That is the reply to me saying “The Opposition has to be laughing his ass off.” This is well after the State of Virginia went full Blue thanks to Mike Bloomberg’s money. Gun Control is now the full owner of a State and Rob believes that parading Gross in the rally has them quaking inside their mommy sandals.

Jeff Knox: I completely understand your concern Miguel. He was at the front of the opposition for a long time. I’m very disappointed that no one in the “mainstream” media seems to have noticed that a top gun control leader just apparently switched sides.

He was actually thinking the Rally was going to be covered in a good light or at all? He believes that the Media was going to be fair to Gun Rights and give them equal billing? And Jeff Knox did not start in the Gun Rights issue yesterday, but by God he cannot still believe we are going to be covered in any positive light. Where has he been hibernating all these years that he missed this memo?

To me, both Pincus and Knox appear to be disconnected from what is going on.

I don’t know what else to say without incurring in foul language.

In case you missed the news, earlier this week three women and their six children were killed and five more children were wounded in an attack by members of the Sinaloa drug cartel.  The youngest victim was only eight months old.

Here is how major US news sources reported on that massacre:

U.S. victims in Mexico massacre were tied to family with a long history of violence https://t.co/tNUdw20wKx

Yeah, like a century ago.

The brutal killing of 9 members of an American family in northern Mexico on Monday highlights the long history of religious fundamentalist settlers in the region. Our religion reporter, Elizabeth Dias, details their history back to the early 20th century. https://t.co/rfvtzdTN9i

“Fundamentalist settlers” sounds so scary.

The NBC News ran this headline:

Slain U.S. citizens were part of Mormon offshoot with sordid history
The nine U.S. citizens killed in a brutal ambush in Mexico belonged to a fundamentalist Mormon group that had been touched by cartel violence before.

The group was part of the extended LeBaron family, Mormon fundamentalists who first came to Mexico nearly a century ago — when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City started cracking down on members who were still practicing polygamy.

To escape persecution in the U.S., Alma Dayer LeBaron brought his wives and children across the border to Mexico in 1924 and founded the LeBaron colony in the Mexican state of Chihuahua.

I just want to get this right?

Just after the story of Congresswoman Katie Hill having a “throuple” with her husband and her staffer broke, CBS news ran a story about “consensual non-monogamy.”

We were not supposed to judge Congresswoman Hill’s sexual proclivities because they weren’t hurting anybody.  Besides, polyamory/non-monogomy is one of those hip new sexual orientations.  What are you, a closed-minded bigot?

Also, the prevailing Leftist opinion is that illegal immigrants who come to the United States should be immediately given every benefit and protection, as well at the right to vote in (for now) local elections.

HOWEVER…

A Mormon sect that practiced polygamy when it entered Mexico 95 years ago are sexually deviant colonial interlopers, who sort of deserved to be massacred by drug traffickers.

My takeaways from all of this are that for the Lefists who work for and read our major news outlets:

Monogamy is bad and having multiple sexual partners after marriage is good.  Unless is it polygamy, which is bad because it’s like “super marriage” because you are married to all the different people you have sex with.

Also, observant Christians rank lower on the likeability scale than mass-murdering drug traffickers.

For any politicians or political aids, the might read this, here is a regular American’s opinion on the use of American troops in combat operations:

I do not give a single, solitary, fuck about Muslims slaughtering other Muslims in Syria or elsewhere.

The number one pastime of Muslims is killing other Muslims.  They have been doing that for over a millennium-and-a-half.  Muhammad died and the first thing the other Muslims did was split into two factions and start killing each other.  They haven’t stopped since.  Our continued presence in the Middle East isn’t going to change that.

Frankly, the busier the Syrians are killing each other, the less likely they are to attack Israel.

Just keep an eye on Iran and be prepared to nuke the shit out of that country if and when they finally developed a nuclear weapon.

As for Mexico.  It is a failed state half under the control of the cartels.

What the cartels do is just ass evil as ISIS.  Burning people alive, execution with chainsaws, mass murder, killing children, etc.

I am tired of the violence that drug dealing brings into our country.  I am tired of reading about the murders by MS-13, who come up through Mexico into our country.

I am tired of reading about truckloads of fentanyl, enough to OD the entire population of several states, coming into our country.

I am tired of a failed Mexico offloading its poor into the US as illegal immigrants.

The US drug economy is estimated to be $100 Billion.  That is $100 Billion that is spent by Americans on drugs going to Mexico and narco-states further south, and not staying in the US to drive the legal domestic economy.

I am tired of reading about the tens of thousands of Americans who OD every year.

If the purpose of the US military is to defend the United States, how about doing with it what its primary mission is and use it to defend the US from the failed narco-state of Mexico.

How about putting the resources of our intelligence community to work locating the cartels and then bombing the fuck out of them.  How about treating cartels as enemy combatants and not criminals and roll in there and light them the fuck up with heavy weapons fire.

When the cartels ride around with M2’s on pickups trucks like ISIS in Iraq, that’s a clear indication we need to go after them with some Abrams and Hellfires dropped from reapers.

I truly do not give a shit about the opinion of the Mexican government, those corrupt bunch of cowards.  Fuck ’em.

I can guarantee that more American lives will be saved by sending troops into Mexico to kill drug traffickers than will be sending troops into Syria or Yemen.

And if it is all a matter of money and the influence of the military-industrial complex, I’ll make you this deal.  I’ll let the military contractors keep all the money they can get out of the hands of the cartels after killing them.  I’d rather have the CEOs of Lockheed, Raytheon, and Northrop-Grumman partying with that cash than Mexican drug lords.  At least I know it will be spent in the US.

If you had told me that a former president of the Brady Campaign was going to speak at the 2A Rally Saturday, I would have wondered what substances you had ingested.

Dan Gross, former president of the Brady Campaign, was an unannounced speaker at the 2A Rally. What he said took a lot of people by surprise including me.

The Most Surprising Speaker At The 2A Rally

I guess most of you now this by now as it was wildly published in gun circles. And that is my first problem: There was a long list of worthy speakers, but the final take of the 2A Rally was that the stupid gun nuts let an enemy take the podium and talk. This is not a Soccer Mom that has been anti-gun because he read some shit in Twitter, then somebody sat down with her and explained things and she came around. We are talking about a guy who was head of the oldest Gun Control organization in the US and did his very best to criminalize us. All of the sudden, he whispers pretty nothings in some ear, he is whisked incognito in the rally and given a platform. I can hear the pearls of laughter inside the Brady Campaign about this.

And that not being bad enough, this really closes the turd cake:

Gross said that he and Rob Pincus have been working together for the past year on creating a Center for Gun Rights and Responsibilities. It will be interesting to see what comes of that.

What the hell is going on here? If this is such a good thing, why the mystery? Why hiding? And specially why the fuck are we working with the enemy?

If I were in Brady’s or Moms Demands’ PR team, I would write a press release that sounded something like this:

The 2A Rally showed Gun Owners are willing to compromise some of their rights. Allowing Gun Control people talk in their rally was a good first step and some of their leaders have been secretly working with Gun Control advocates to find common sense solutions.

And in sotto voce:
“Off the record: They did not tell anybody about working together because Gun Owners are too stupid to understand what Gross and Pincus are trying to accomplish.“

As Miguel has covered, Mexico is now a failed state.  The Cartels have defeated the Mexican military and federal law enforcement in several gun battles.

The murder of judges and reporters, and rampant corruption has also helped to bring Mexico down.

Mass graves of Mexican citizens killed by the cartels are being found on a daily basis.  Some 40,000 Mexicans are missing and many are presumed dead in the Mexican drug war.

Recently, nine Americans, including six children, in a Mormon community were ambushed and killed by the Cartels.  The Mormons have been targeted before for simply living in Cartel controlled areas.

Not including here are the hundreds or thousands of Americans killed in the US by Cartel drug dealers and the tens of thousands of Americans who have died of overdoses of drugs from or through Mexico.

This is not the first time that the Mexican government failed, leading to criminal gangs causing havoc and death in the United States.

Just over 100 years ago Mexico experienced a civil war known as the Mexican Revolution.  A paramilitary leader of one of the revolutionary factions was Francisco “Pancho” Villa.

His criminal ruffians crossed into the United States and attacked US citizens and military outposts in New Mexico.

The US responded by having General John J. “Black Jack Pershing send the US 13th Calvary Regiment into Mexico.

A young Lieutenant George Patton was tasked with taking trucks and Hotchkiss machine guns with him, to do a live fire field test of how well motor vehicles and machine guns will do in combat, by killing Pancho Villa’s outlaws.

Patton ended up dismounted, with a Colt Single Action Army revolver in each hand, shooting Mexicans like it was the OK Corral.

We seem to forget our history with Mexico, but we have fought several wars with Mexico.  Starting with the Long Expedition, the Texas Revolution, Franco-Mexican War, the Mexican American war, and the Border War.  We have on multiple occasions had to send the Army to stop Mexican factions from being a thorn in our side.

It’s been 100 years since the last time we had to send troops into Mexico to stop the killings of US citizens.

If Mexico is once again a failed state, where a revolutionary faction has overpowered the Mexican government and is killing US citizens, it might be time to once again roll troops over the Rio Grande to shoot Mexican ruffians.

From the comments:

“I can’t arrest if something doesn’t happen in my presence”

So if a murder or a rape happens in Kentucky and there is video footage but the cops didn’t see it they can’t arrest anyone?
