1936. A store front in Jackson City Ohio.
The Duck Dynasty revolt reveals more about
PC
than their worst fears allow. After decades of being effectively
unopposed, Political Correctness is playing defense, but it has no
experience with it. It's paranoiac fluster at
any challenge is
followed by—and people notice this—slapstick overreaction that looks
ridiculous even to the disengaged. Defending
PC today points out the defender as a hopeless rube, and supplicants for absolution
as invertebrate wusses. The rising defiance to
PC is causing genuine panic in their ranks.
PC
has been unconstrained by reality for decades, now it's far from sight
of shore, held together by little more than cant and chants, its
internal stresses incapable of withstanding any informed confrontation.
It's buckling. The people know it.
Around the country gun rights groups and citizens who support the
Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution asked of law enforcement when
told they would have to abide by new restrictions on their rights,
"What if we say no? Are you going to kill us? We have already told you
we would never give up any gun or obey any new restriction. We will defy
you to the bitter end. So, are you prepared to kill us in your attempt
to enforce your unconstitutional laws on citizens who have never broken
the law? And, are you prepared to live with the consequences?", says
Anthony Martin in this article,
Gun control: 'What if we say no?', at
The Examiner.
A man has been charged with the first-degree murder of his girlfriend's
son after he allegedly attacked the child because he was crying during a
football game. Tre'viance [which tells us all we need to know even if there weren't a photo with the article]
Markese Walker, 22, was looking after his girlfriend's baby for a few
hours on December 7 while he watched the University of Oklahoma vs.
Oklahoma State football game on TV.

DHS
employs 240,000 people and boasts a $40 billion budget. Johnson, unlike
his most recent predecessors, has never actually held an executive
position governing a state or managing a complex organization.
In 2008, this top campaign finance bundler served on the Team Obama
transition team.
News coverage stresses that Johnson is the "first African-American" to
hold the No. 1 position at
DHS.
Because, you know, diversity will keep us safe. The inmates are running
the asylum. Homeland security threats and ciphers are running the
homeland security department, says Michelle Malkin in this article,
The crony Obama donors in charge of DHS, at
Human Events.
The infrastructure supporting our power grid is so outdated and
vulnerable that an attack or natural disaster could lead to an outage
scenario of unprecedented scale. We know it would be mere days before
panic, looting and rioting took hold. Law and order would fall apart.
Based on previous studies, we know that out of those 130 million people
east of the Mississippi who would be affected by such an outage, 117
million would be dead within a year. Unless you have nearly unlimited
financial resources, stockpiling supplies for a four to ten year grid
down scenario is pretty much out of the question, says Mac Slavo in this
article,
Map: Areas Of Probable Power System Collapse: 130 Million Lacking Power For Several Years, at

Security -
This term has been completely perverted, in a way that would make
George Orwell proud. It is now about subjecting citizen-serfs to every
conceivable inconvenience and intrusion, especially when they dare to
travel by airplane, talk on the phone, send an email, get health care,
or pay taxes. Instead of protecting the rights of the people, security
agencies now exist to attack them... It is shocking that people who grew
up in a free country would staunchly support "fundamentally
transforming" America into tyranny. And that’s what it’s about, tyranny
and ultimately murder.

An Army colonel tells why Obama is purging the military - One of the big new battle scenarios being actively discussed in the military recently is how to handle civil unrest in the
U.S.
and fighting in the streets. What will the Army do if called in to
fight armed civilians in the streets of the United States? How will that
urban warfare be conducted? Will troops be able to fire upon other
American citizens when the troops take an oath to protect American
citizens? He said many in the military are discussing the very real
possibility that Obama will attempt to stay in office beyond two
terms... that Obama will do this by declaring a state of martial law.

Revisionists are mulling over a decision to remove Lee's and Jackson's
portraits from the walls of the War College... Historians of the Civil
War will be mightily interested in the outcome of "Portrait-gate," as
expunging of the South's greatest generals from the historical narrative
might change the overall story a smidgen... Are we soon to see Matthew
Brady's and other great Civil War photographers' work PhotoShopped, the
faces of the offending Southern generals erased?
