Solitary parent, reporters have hissy fit over M2 .50 BMG and M4 assault rifles in school

 middle school guns

It irritates the snot out of me when anti-gun, anti-military leftists in the media use a single like-minded moron as an excuse to thrust their beliefs upon everyone else.

Similar to a story last week about a two-woman boycott of a supermarket over concealed carry, Charlotte’s NBC outlet is pushing their anti-gun, anti-military agenda using the excuse of one middle school parent who was angry that a Rock Hill, SC Middle School Veterans Day appearance by active duty soldiers featured several unloaded military weapons.

Jeopardy, opportunity, ability

 Erick Gelhaus Andy Lopez Sonoma County deputy sheriff Santa Rosa Airsoft Gun.

The shooting of Andy Lopez for the "Crime" of Carrying an airsoft toy Gun in California is interesting for Several Reasons. One, the shooter is an acquaintance whom I know through the Firing Line forum and regard favorably, largely thanks to his pro-RKBA stance on gun rights. The Confluence of special ability, Opportunity and jeopardy Will be Decided by the court, but That Being California, I have Little Doubt That They Would Side with Police. While the airsoft rifle did look very much like a real AK47, the kid carrying it wasn't threatening anyone and so the court would likely center the investigation on whether or not he had acted aggressively.

"The Only Ones."

Flying back to AUS from DEN yesterday, and dropping my declared carry gun off at the TSA scanning area. Scanning area is a set of double doors (both open) with a couple blueshirts and a CT scanner inside. In front of the double doors is a tensabarrier behind which they ask firearms owners to wait while they scan the bags.

It's hunting season in the mountain state and there's more guns being checked than I've ever seen. At least a dozen rifles in cases and guys with camo everything, standing around waiting for the okay to proceed.

TSA blueshirt comes over to tensabarrier and asks for "Bob Stevens". "Bob" comes forward and TSA proceeds to tell him that his rifle is loaded, they saw it on the CT scanner.

Vietnam Shows How To Clean Up The Banking System: Ex-Banker Faces Death Penalty For Fraud

He must not have given the PTB their cut, as Communist Vietnam is so corrupt that they make the Thieu government look lily white.

The lack of prosecution of bankers responsible for the great financial collapse has been a hotly debated topic over the years, leading to the coinage of such terms as "Too Big To Prosecute", the termination of at least one corrupt DOJ official, the revelation that Eric Holder is the most useless Attorney General in history, and even members of the judicial bashing other members of the judicial such as in last night's essay by district judge Jed Rakoff.

And naturally, the lack of incentives that punish cheating and fraud, is one of the main reasons why such fraud will not only continue but get bigger and bigger, until once again, the entire system crashes under the weight of all the corruption and all the Fed-driven malinvestment. But what can be done? In this case, Vietnam may have just shown America the way - use the death penalty on convicted embezzling bankers. Because if one wants to promptly stop an end to financial crime, there is nothing quite like the fear of death to halt it.

American Liberty at the Crossroads: Do We Sit, or Do We Show Up and Fight..........

....... and Win?

SurvivalBlog reader B.B. suggested this piece by Mark Steyn: The Drift toward Despotism. And joining the chorus, even more stridently: The Creeping Police State. Soon after sending those links, B.B. sent this brilliant essay from Daren Jonescu: The Progressive Degradation of Freedom.

Reading Jonescu's cogent words crystallized a nascent theory that had been nagging me for a decade. It is this: America's systemic reaction to the unspeakable horror of the 9/11 attacks was to "protect" ourselves by planting the seeds for a police state that will eventually strangle the freedom that we grew up cherishing.
