Goodies from Ol' Remus

1940-virginia-winchester-2.jpg
Gone With The Wind premiered in December 1939 in Atlanta, with general release in January of 1940. The movie has been re-released nine times, the 1998 re-release being a remaster in the original format. It was first televised in 1976. Time Warner is the present owner.

You are ultimately responsible for your own self defense. You can't expect the government to protect you. You can't sue them for failure to protect. And if you prefer to be disarmed, no one will stop you. However, if you do not wish to be a victim of those who are stronger, more violent, ruthless, and predatory, having weaponry is advisable. As to noise suppressors, bayonets, bipods, automatic fire, barrel length, calibre, magazine size, appearance, and styling, that should be up to the owner, not the servant government, to decide.

 Do we really want to live in a world of police checkpoints, surveillance cameras, metal detectors, X-ray scanners, and  warrantless physical searches?  We see this culture in our airports: witness the shabby spectacle of once proud, happy Americans shuffling through long lines while uniformed TSA agents bark orders.  This is the world of government provided "security," a world far too many Americans now seem to accept or even endorse.

I will tell you a short story. Where im at, we have what are called Wild Boar Hogs. They weigh between 150lbs (calves) up to >500 lb. adults. They roam free in large packs, from county to county, killing small prey, medium and large prey with up to 6 inch long razor sharp tusks. There are four of them. These animals do not discriminate between human and animal prey. When the pack has a new brood, they feed the calves by tilling the land area they are in up to 20 inches deep, for grub worms for the calves to feed on until they can hunt and eat on their own.
Children playing in an open field are a particularly delightful little morsel for the bulls. No need to count how many times i have been caught off guard and charged, by a bull, but when your with your child, you know they are not coming for you, they want the easy meat, the child. The only round that can stop a charging boar hog, is a deer round, or, preferably a high cal round, (less shots to get the kill), but try lugging around a high cal rifle that only holds three rounds, that have to be shot from a fixed point to be any kind of accurate. So no, a high caliber, or standard caliber deer rifle will not work unless it is at night when you are thinning herds with night vision, and high, fixed point, sniper positions.

My guess is that he lives in Texas, as I do. And he is 100% correct. These things hunt people. What he failed to mention is that wild boars are SMART. And very strong. They work together and attack using tactics. And if you think that you can get away by climbing a tree it better be a really big tree - if it has a trunk anything less than 12" or so diameter they will work at it until they bring it down.
With my AR-15, i carry only 2 mags, 30 rounds each. Last time i got charged by a young bull, it took six shots to stop him, i hit him five times, missed one.
If you try to take the tool i use to defend myself and my family against WILD ANIMALS, NOT PEOPLE, those boar hogs could find new homes very very near the very populaces that require my dis armament.
So, yall can deal with them dragging your kids off into the fields.

An open letter concerning the “Gun Control” threats made by public figures and Legislators.



Posted as requested:

If some drunk runs over a bunch of preschoolers at a bus stop, that does not give you, society or the government the right/authority to take MY car or restrict what kind of car I can own.

If some meth head goes on a rampage at the local day care with a chainsaw,that does not give you, society or the government the right/authority to take MY chainsaw or restrict what kind of chainsaw I can own.


If some insane boy-man guns down a bunch of school kids with any kind of firearm,that does not give you, society or the government the right/authority to take MY firearm or restrict what kind of firearm I can own.


The US has over 300 Federal and major State Firearms laws on the books.(a very conservative figure) Every one of which is unconstitutional. No law will save you from the insane or criminally inclined. The only thing that will suffice to defend your family is the ownership of a weapon and the will to use it.


The 2nd Amendment was never about hunting, or even self defense. It is all about the Citizen's ability to defend themselves against tyranny by the government or the majority. What part of "...Shall not be infringed" do the Marxists not understand?


In reality I think they understand perfectly, that as long as 'we the people' are armed they cannot run roughshod over the Constitution. That is why they have moved slowly and discreetly to usurp our rights on a daily basis for decades. They fear us, they fear discovery and openness. They fear the removal of their masks as liberals or “progressives”. We know their true face, history has shown us many times. The Collectivist Central Governments of Russia, China, Cambodia and North Korea killed more than 200 MILLION people during the last decades of the 20th Century.


We will NOT allow them to repeat their Socialist nightmare here. We will resist, we will not comply. We will not permit the confiscation of our property. We will not allow cries of “Save us!”, “Protect us!” or “It's for the Children!” to be used as justifications for the majority to deny us our natural rights.


Let me state clearly and publicly for the record and for posterity's sake. We will not comply with any further infringements. We will resist. If attacked, we will fight. If accosted at our homes we will shoot back. God have mercy on those in Government, Media or “Law Enforcement” who threaten our families, because we will show none.


We make this statement not in anger or fear, but with sound minds and firm resolve. Let our servants in the public sector and the intellectual, media, and academic elitists who support them take note and understand the very personal results of their actions. If our families suffer, so shall yours. We know where you live, we know where you work, we know where you dine and shop. Your bodyguards and contractors cannot protect you from determined men with nothing left to lose. Stay away from our families, homes and property, you have been warned.

You Have Been Drafted

Again?:)

I have no cards, or orders to offer you, but you cannot avoid the fact that if you are reading this blog, you have been drafted into a war you don't necessarily understand or even agree with. It is not your choice and like all drafts, it is instituted by the government, the government of years past.

Patrick Henry said, at end of a long and wonderful address: Give me liberty, or give me death.

The war is against us, by the usurpers and pretenders in the government. We did not choose this future, they did. We did not force our hands, they did. From the GOP, who do not understand their role in the resistance to the active Marxists in the DHS and TSA, we are under attack.

Does Section 1029 Of The NDAA Guarantee Americans Their Constitutional Rights To Trial?


VERBATIM

Well, it’s been one year to the day when Barack Hussein Obama signed into law the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and it’s assumed he will sign the new 2013 version of the NDAA sometime today, keeping the signing under the radar as he did last year. The questions surrounding this year’s NDAA has been over whether or not proposed amendments to it would, in fact, provide protections for Americans under the Constitution, guaranteeing them their Sixth Amendment rights.

While I told you about the Feinstein Amendment here and here, but the reality is that the Feinstein amendment was dropped from the 2012 NDAA.

But wasn’t there another provision in the NDAA that guarantees an American’s right to trial is upheld? Well, there is Section 1029, which is referred to as the Gohmert Amendment. The amendment was written by Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX). The amendment has claimed to protect the rights of U.S. citizens if they are arrested and suspected of terrorism. Here is the text of Section 1029 of the 2013 NDAA:
“Nothing in the Authorization for Use of Military Force or the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 shall be construed to deny the availability of the writ of habeas corpus or to deny any Constitutional rights in a court ordained or established by or under Article III of the Constitution for any person who is lawfully in the United States when detained pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force and who is otherwise entitled to the availability of such writ or such rights.”
It sounds like it is guaranteeing to protect American citizens rights, doesn’t it? I mean it’s pretty straight forward. But is it?

According to Dan Johnson, with PANDA (People Against the NDAA) the problem is in the language, particularly the guarantee to a trial in an Article III court. He writes:
“The Gohmert Amendment only says that if you get a trial in an Article III court that you won’t be denied your constitutional rights in that court, but there’s no guarantee that you get any trial, let alone one in an Article III court. This language is deceptive in that it implies Congress can pick and choose who gets Constitutional Rights. It also does not recognize or protect the Constitutional Rights of U.S. citizens travelling abroad.”
In other words, Section 1029 does nothing to protect your right to a trial in an Article III court. In fact, lawmakers have declared that America is a “battlefield.” This means that anyone detained under the 2001 (You read that right, that’s George W. Bush) Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), which was strengthened further by the 2012 NDAA, would be subject to a military trial, not a trial in an Article III court.

Johnson goes on affirm this stating that “Anyone detained under the 2001 AUMF as modified by the 2012 NDAA is subject to the laws of war.”

My friends you need to understand that this applies based simply on the “suspicion” of being a terrorist or being involved with terrorists by either the President or anyone under his command! This means they would not get the Article III court, but rather would be subject to an Article I court, or we commonly refer to them as a Military Tribunal or a Courts-Martial.

Dan Johnson goes further to explain that “The 2009 Military Commissions Act gave military commissions/tribunals (also know as courts-martial) the statutory authority to choose whether or not they had jurisdiction. In laymen’s terms, that means a Military commission (an Article I Court) can decide themselves whether or not they will take “jurisdiction” over cases involving AUMF/NDAA “covered persons.”

So while the language of the Gohmert amendment sounds good, it does absolutely nothing to guarantee you a trial in an Article III court. You can still be indefinitely detained based on the White House saying you are a terrorist. Additionally, if you do get a trial, it may be in a military tribunal and not a civilian court of law. However, should you actually get into an Article III court, then your rights would be honored….”unless otherwise entitled.”

All this comes down to those final two words, “otherwise entitled.” The statement is basically saying that you are not “otherwise enetitled” even though the Constitution says you are. Under both Bush and Obama, if they deemed you a terrorist, you had no right to a trial, because in their words, you are an “enemy combatant.” If you don’t believe that our representatives think the same thing, listen to Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) as he was interviewed and asked about his statement “Shut up! You don’t get a lawyer!” Hear him state these exact words.

Don’t forget while you are celebrating tonight that Obama just may be doing some celebrating of his own by signing this unconstitutional, tyrannical bill into law, further endangering you and me and our children.

NRA's Keene: 'Bombastic' Biden Won't Deal with Us


Screw him.  Why bother? No, no, just hell no, period.

The National Rifle Association believes it won’t get a fair shake as Vice President Joe Biden doggedly heads a federal effort to stem gun violence with tough new laws following the Newtown elementary school massacre.

“This is somebody who’s bombastic and really does think that anybody who disagrees with him is not only wrong but crazy. That’s his style,” NRA president David Keene told The New York Times.

Biden, who owns two shotguns himself, is currently drafting legislation for President Barack Obama that is expected to call for a strong ban on assault weapons.

And lawmakers say if anybody can get the nation moving on a such a ban in the next few weeks, it’s Biden.

“I really do believe there isn’t anybody in America who has a better chance of getting this done by Jan. 15 than he does,’’ former Sen. Ted Kaufman of Delaware, a Biden advisor, told the Times.

“Not just because of his background in guns, but because he’s not politically intimidated by the NRA, to put it mildly.”

Biden has roiled the NRA by not reaching out to the group, a snub the pro-gun organization says shows contempt for gun owners and their rights under the Second Amendment.

Biden helped pass an assault-weapons ban in 1994, but the law had a 10-year expiration clause and contained a compromise that allowed certain types of assault-type firearms to continue to be sold.

NRA fingerprints in landmark health-care law

 

The words were tucked deep into the sprawling text of President Obama’s signature health-care overhaul. Under the headline “Protection of Second Amendment Gun Rights” was a brief provision restricting the ability of doctors to gather data about their patients’ gun use — a largely overlooked but significant challenge to a movement in American medicine to treat firearms as a matter of public health.

The language, pushed by the National Rifle Association in the final weeks of the 2010 debate over health care and discovered only in recent days by some lawmakers and medical groups, is drawing criticism in the wake of this month’s schoolhouse massacre of 20 children and six educators in Newtown, Conn. Some public health advocates, worried that the measure will hinder research and medical care, are calling on the White House to amend the language as it prepares to launch a gun-control initiative in January.

NRA officials say they requested the provision out of concern that insurance companies could use such data to raise premiums on gun owners. The measure’s supporters in the Senate say they did not intend to interfere with the work of doctors or researchers.

But physician groups and researchers see the provision as part of a decades-long strategy by the gun lobby to choke off federal support for studies of firearms violence.
