Irvin Nathan, the attorney general for the District of Columbia, announced Friday that he will not press charges against NBC News’ David Gregory nor any employee of the broadcast network for violating the city’s gun laws. Violation of the city’s firearms laws carry a maximum $1,000 fine and one year in jail.
It is not like we did not see that one coming. But you and me, normal people are the ones with the problem. Now, do not expect this to be covered in the Mainstream Media, go ahead and pass along Emily Miller’s article to all your friends and contacts. Let them know how full of hog manure those demanding a ban on “High Capacity” magazines really are.
So fresh from the Brady Facebook page it is still dripping with the juices of irony:
Jesse beat everybody to the punch. Yes, a wee bit of a smartaleck indeed. Lisa retorts with Standard Line #37. Next we have a sleigh of hand by Lisa: Next is the “How dare You?” indignation followed by “Insert Stupid Statement And Pass It As His.” I am a bit confused about Damon’s comment: Does he mean that his Son In Law bought a gun from a Felon or that his Son In Law was a felon and bought a gun illegally from a Private Seller? Next: The less than artful but always pleasing “Leave Britney Alone!”: Sandra’s comment is revealing: Gun Control Advocates are indeed a bunch of depressed people. Sheesh! Next comes Jesse’s response to the bully accusation and a dose of Unicorn Farts: “No one should be a Victim.” Noble thought but Reality has a way to bite you in the butt if you have your head in the magical multicolored cloud. Nobody can guarantee you 100% that you will die painless in bed of advanced old age.
Next we have the : “GO AWAY! LALALALALA!” technique and the mandatory Redneck Reference: Yep… nothing but elevated dialogue here.
Next is the “Go away, Go Away you are hurting my feelings” pleas: Immediately followed by…(insert drum roll here) … The Disappearing Comments! Yep, no more Jesse. Deleted and banished from “The Conversation.”
And that is the way they play. Conversation means for them we do not get our say. We are inconveniently armed with facts and common sense which are dangerous things if you are trying to win a war based on emotions and lies.
When the British army lost most of its arms on the beach at Dunkirk during WWII, John W. Hession was one of many Americans who responded by loaning a rifle for British use.
As this bolt-action Springfield rifle, SN 264631, was Hession’s prized competition piece, a gun that had successfully competed in the Olympics, at Bisley Range in England, and in the National Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio – Hession placed specially engraved plates on the stock denoting its importance. The front plate, which asked for the rifle’s return after the defeat of Germany, may be the reason this piece was returned to Hession after the war.
The Springfield ’03 was the “Assault Weapon” of the time. But it gets worse: It is configured with a scope which makes it a sniper weapon and possibly shoots the horrible “cop killer” .30-06 round. The idea that this awful weapon is in the hands of civilians may send Gun Grabbers into conniption fits!
Springfield rifle, SN 264631
A beautiful weapon with a beautiful history. Not only it tell us about the character of the Lender but also the character of the Brits back then who took the efforts to return the gun to its rightful owner after I hope was a memorable and fruitful service.
There is a quote from the book Unintended Consequences by John Ross that may explain why we feel the way we do sometimes:
In the ’20s, soldiers sat on their bunks in the cold at Camp Perry, cleaning the handmade .22 target rifles they would compete with the next day. When the President proudly announces that today, seventy years later, he is ordering these same guns thrown into a blast furnace, we in the gun culture feel powerful emotions. They are the same emotions a Native American would feel if the President proudly ordered the destruction of war clubs and other sacred tribal artifacts. They are the same emotions that Jews felt watching newsreel footage of Nazi Sturmtroopen gleefully burning intricate copies of the Torah.
Authorities say a Florida Panhandle man has been arrested after he tried to rob a convenience store with a cattle prod but was thwarted by a clerk with a gun.
This was supposed to be the perfect storm. The US’s Dunblane Massacre and the gateway to absolute Gun Control. The death of the NRA was a foregone conclusion in the eyes of the “experts” and soon the Powers That Be would be free to give us a “better world” free from the threats of guns.
That we are being governed by Old Hippies and their minions. These are the same Hippies that in the 60s kept hollering POWER TO THE PEOPLE! But now that the People listened and have the power at the tip of their hands in the form of guns, the Hippies are scared shitless and they want to remove the POWER from THE PEOPLE.
Contradictory, ain’t it?
