But it’s our last, best hope for peace

“It was the Dawn of the Third Age of Mankind, ten years after the Earth-Minbari War. The Babylon Project was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It’s a port of call, home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs and wanderers. Humans and aliens wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal .. all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it’s our last, best hope for peace. This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5.”

Babylon 5, Season One Intro.

“Summoned, I come. In Valen’s name I take the place that has been prepared for me. I’m Grey. I stand between the candle and the star. We are Grey. We stand between the darkness .. and the light.”
-Delenn in Grey Council in Babylon 5:”Babylon Squared”

If you wonder why, it is just because no matter what the Firefly freaks say, B5 will always be the best. 😛

Brady still does not get it.

From The Brady Bunch Facebook Page:

Laws are followed by the Law Abiding people, criminals by definition do not follow the law there fore a law prohibiting the keeping and bearings of arms is going to be only followed by those who are law-abiding. Also that is why we usually add penalties for violating a law so those breaking it feel the pain.

Let me give you an example. You know that recent law in Florida where localities are not allowed to pass gun control measures because the State has exerted pre-emption on any Gun Laws? Actually the law has been in the books for 23 years but some local governments decided that since the law worked on the honor system and imposed no penalties, they could bypass it and do pretty much whatever the hell they wanted because they are politicians and honor is not genetically encoded into them or was taught by Mom or Dad. This addendum to the existing law imposes a $5,000 penalty to any official creating or enforcing any local gun control regulation not approved by the Florida Legislature and the fine must be paid out of their pockets and not taxpayers’ funds. Counties that have been following the law since its inception will have no problems, anybody else is pretty much scrambling to remove the ILLEGAL ordinances or getting ready to be taken to court.
Now, any person with a somewhat functional brain is able to understand the whole concept stated above, but anti-gunners’ brains work on a different wavelength altogether: one of despotism. The following is a reply of the initial Brady post:

Apparently we are all criminals. We just haven’t been caught yet.

It is a good thing that stupidity is not punishable with the death penalty or Mike would be in the express lane to a Sparky recliner.

CSGV: Threading in Dangerous & Libelous Waters.

This has become the latest mantra of the Laddites. Nothing new actually, I recall the Feminist in the Sixties and Seventies using pretty much the same strategy when they basically announced to the world that sex between a married couple was Rape and all Men were nothing but rapists that have not been caught or indicted.

The mental gymnastics is based in one simple premise: You own a gun, you are a certified criminal in their minds. There is no need for criminal intention for you to be called a criminal. This is very important in their efforts because the level of criminal activity by Law Abiding Gun owners is nil compared to the regular population of the country.  This is a propagandist use of Malum Prohibitum (Prohibited because we say so) because they know they damn well they will never be able to prove that Gun Ownership is Malum In Se (Prohibited because it is inherently bad or evil) and that actually owning a gun will help innocent people stand against real criminals.

There is no doubt that CSGV is the radical wing of the anti-gun movement. We have been called everything from murderers and Child Abusers to cannibals by the Laddites. Fortunately (so far) their own stridency has kept them from being treated somewhat seriously by the Media and that has to be pissing them off plenty. Still they are to be kept under surveillance by our side, one never knows when these morons will try to take it to the next level and become real dangers to civilized society.

UPDATE: Found the “extended version” in the VPC Facebook page by our prefered Mental Health Specialist Craig Hexman.

I guess adding to the list of dangers the Mentally Ill part will help them herd us into “facilities” and away from their Ivory Towers.

PS: I used “surveillance” on purpose. If they read this post, they will stop at the word and go ballistically foaming at the mouth and screaming at the skies. Fun must be found where available 😉

CSGV: Tin Foil Hat is showing.

OK, who is stockpiling and how come I haven’t got my stockpile of AKs? Oh wait, I forgot. I am not a Mexican Narco. Damn!

Seriously Ladd, your tin foil hat is showing way too much. Maybe it is time for you to seek professional help and stop self-medicating.

Update: As requested, the cartoon CSGV posted:

Remember: If you want one, it means you want to pull the trigger and kill something. There is no other use for a gun according to them….except there are other uses that do not require burning ammo. Sometimes criminals do get the message.

Presidente Calderon es un cabron.

Three days ago I wrote a mocking post about demanding gasoline control after the deadly arson attack by Narcos on a Mexican casino. Apparently my mocking is what passes for serious presidential messages in Mexico because President Calderon blames the attack on the US, the “lax gun laws” and our drug problem.

Estimado Presidente Calderon Cabron: And a que te den por el culo. OK?

(Language Warning if you fail to curb your temptation and use Google Translate. And apologies, but this kind of weasel stuff just racks me the wrong way)

Hat Tip to Sebastian.
