Poltical Correctness: We have come full stupid circle.

A Blanche Ely High School teacher has been suspended for a week without pay and ordered to attend diversity sensitivity training — punishment for calling a black student a “little chocolate boy” in front of a full classroom.

I had to shake my head and laugh since the first thing that came to mind was this song from the Non-Plus-Ultra Hippie Movie HAIR.

Them hippies back in the day are the ones now dictating what’s racially right or wrong. You’ll need a lightsaber to cut the thick irony.

We have become a Banana Republic

We are now a country that elects aristocracy and not representatives. When an elected official tells you up front he does not read the communications of the citizens of his state because they go against what he wants to do, it is time to think seriously about kicking people out of office one way or the other.

It is now a race to see which party self-immolates first.

On wishing a Military Intervention on U.S. Soil.

This is an example of the uppermost “intellectual Holy Grail” of the Gun Control Advocates.

delusionalLet’s set aside the fact that Iraq was controlled by a hated minority who was not sad to see Saddam go, that the country’s population is about 10% of the population of the US, that only a very selected minority possessed guns and that even then with all the might of the US Armed Forces, it took an inordinate amount of time to somewhat control the 170,000 square miles of country which is about the same size as California.

Let’s forget about all that for a second and let us concentrate on one fact that appears to be eluding the minds of the rabidly anti-gun: They will not be exempted from the heavy hand of an unchecked government imposing martial law across the land and kissing goodbye basic constitutional protections.

Yes, some of the best know Gun Control voices will be excepted from a free home delivery of ordnance or the inevitable trip downtown wearing the latest in steel bracelets (not from Zales), but the rank and file of the rabidly anti-gun will pretty much be in the same collapsing boat with the rest of the population. They will be arrested without cause, house & property searched without warrant, subjected to random checks on the street, will not be able to address grievances unless they desire a trip to a detention camp or accidentally be shot with real assault rifles if they fail to properly obey orders.

And of course and as extra bonus, they will get the hearty thanks from Gun Owners who will officially consider them allies of the new regime. And trust me, the thanks will not be a cute Hallmark Card with a cute photo and witty caption inside. Well, maybe one catchy caption:

For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.

The Supreme Swine Files: Gabby Giffords’ Husband Buys AR-15.

Mark E. Kelly, gun-control proponent and husband to former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, recently purchased an AR-15 (an “assault weapon,” he called it)—which he now says he intended as an illustration of the need for more stringent gun laws.

Kelly reportedly bought the AR-15 and a 1911-style semi-automatic pistol at Diamondback Police Supply in Tucson, Arizona.

The Supreme Swine strikes again. I bet he did not reject the High Capacity Assault Magazine Clip that came with the rifle.

Is Senator Feinstein sane?

I am not being facetiousness or even halfway snarky.

Check the video and the transcript. Notice that this is not an off-the-cuff remark but a prepared written statement.

“The time has come, America, to step up and ban these weapons. The other very important part of this bill is to ban large capacity ammunition feeding devices, those that hold more than 10 rounds. We have federal regulations and state laws that prohibit hunting ducks with more than three rounds. And yet it’s legal to hunt humans with 15-round, 30-round, even 150-round magazines. Limiting magazine capacity is critical because it is when a criminal, a drug dealer, a deranged individual has to pause to change magazines and reload that the police or brave bystanders have the opportunity to take that individual down.”

And then we have her comments about PTSD (starting at 2:36):

“The problem with expanding this is that, you know, with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War, it’s not clear how the seller or transferrer of a firearm covered by this bill would verify that an individual was a member, or a veteran, and that there was no impairment of that individual with respect to having a weapon like this.”

I am sorry, but this is not a person in proper control of her faculties. It may be a temporary thing brought by the stress of finding her Gun Control bills crash and burn when she probably thought they could not be but approved instantly after Sandy Hook. She has been at this basically since she was elected to the Senate in 1992 and to see that the legislation that defined you is rendered irrelevant has to take a toll.

I am not going o be a hypocrite and shed crocodile tears for her but there is sadness to see somebody possibly starting to dip her toes into maelstrom of madness.
