Gun control or people control?

February 7, 2009

Those that preach the panacea of a society without violence often use legitimate people as whipping boys for their targets. Legal gun owners for example. Their twisted logic states that guns are evil, and that it is the gun that makes the person do evil things.

Those very same people expose the rest of us to extreme violence, and make it tough, if nor outright illegal to effectively defend ourselves. They make laws that create free fire zones for criminals and social misfits. Like schools, parks and so on. People that inhabit such places are turned into cannon fodder by other people that care little for anything other than their agenda. Such measures may have started out as well intentioned but the evidence is more than clear after so many mass shootings that the law of unintended consequences beats intentions every time.

So then, just who is it that commits most gun crime? A tiny minority are sociopaths that shoot up schools, malls and other public places. By far though, the vast majority are gang related. It is a sad fact of life that in America gangs are just about everywhere. Money is the driving force behind most of the violence, and innocent people get caught in these cross fires as groups vie for territory or “street cred.”

Drugs, and the lucrative profits from dealing that the ongoing drug war bolsters are most often tied to gun violence. At least according the the alphabet soup agencies. A recent CNN article pointed out that nearly all gun violence is gang related. So why then are so many different people, and organizations hell bent on disarming the rest of the population?

It could be blamed on mental illness, and many of the anti rights types are clearly hopolophobics. I think though, that is simply that old game of control. They want control of your life, and through that, your death.

The last job that I would want at this time

November 5, 2008

The last job that I would want at this time is that of being in the Secret Service on the Presidential Protection detail. Think about it… Barack Obama is going to be a major target for every disgruntled person, or group that is out there.

I myself foresee a whole lot of disgruntled people. His plans for this country, if carried out, will be what brings that about.

Hence;

Income distribution will throttle what is left of the economy. Don’t worry one iota about recession. Think depression, on a global scale that has never been witnessed before.

His gun control schemes will not result in passive resistance like similar laws did in our neighbors land to the north. Resulting in a quiet retraction of the law.The coming depression will have people much more aware of providing for their own safety.

The Second Amendment isn’t about hunting ducks. It was written for the express purpose of resisting oppressive governments. That includes local authorities that commit outright acts of treason. For some reason, I think that the American people will not listen to any sort of Nuremberg excuses from them. Such as “I’m just doing my job.” Treason is treason.


I fully expect an expansion of misandry from this Congress as well as from this new President. Don’t forget the revenge factor because even more ex post facto law is headed down the pipe. The Bill of Rights went the way of the Dodo bird when that arch enemy of liberty Patricia Schroeder used public sympathy to pass her hate legislation. Later Bob Barr worked to have that same sort of oppression passed at the federal level. Barack Obama is, and has been a lackey for any and everything that will help to destroy America. Expect more of the same.

The Democrat / Progressive elite will see to it that they are ensconced in everlasting power. The international felon, George Soros will have his way with our nation. After all, he bought and paid for it. The only question is whether Barack Obama will lease the Lincoln bedroom to him, or give it to him as a gift for all the support that he has sent to the new President by whatever means.
Barack Obama will open the flood gates of illegal immigration from Mexico, but not from places like Ireland. They don’t, after all, have any sort of mafia that can pay off leftists.

No, I wouldn’t want to be in the Secret Service right now. After all, the Mayan calender calls for the end of the world as we know it in February, 2012

Urge the Solicitor General to Support Identity Theft Prosecutions

October 22, 2008

The United States Supreme Court will soon hear a case that could potentially prohibit the government from prosecuting illegal aliens for stealing and using an American’s identity. Pro-illegal alien and anti-American worker lawyers will argue that illegal aliens cannot be prosecuted for this crime if they do not know that the identity they are using is genuine. If they succeed, millions of Americans will be at risk!

Please do all you can to support the government’s ability to prosecute illegal aliens and protect American citizens.

Army seizes power in Mauritania

August 7, 2008

With all that has been going on as of late I took special notice of recent activity in Africa, and, as usual, my good friend Texas Fred beat me to posting about it, as well as possible ramifications for those of us here in these not so United States.

stolen from: Texas Fred

The coup in Africa’s newest oil producer took place after the president and prime minister fired the country’s top four military officials, reportedly for supporting lawmakers who had accused the president of corruption and disagreed with how he was reaching out to Islamic hard-liners.

A brief announcement read over state television Wednesday said the new “state council” will be led by presidential guard chief Gen. Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, one of the four fired generals. The statement also restored the jobs of the other three generals.

President Sidi Ould Cheikh Abdallahi was being held by renegade soldiers at the presidential palace in Nouakchott, according to presidential spokesman Abdoulaye Mamadouba. Soldiers also detained Prime Minister Yahya Ould Ahmed Waqef, he said.

State radio and television went off air as the coup began and witnesses said soldiers were deployed throughout the capital. No violence was reported.

Army seizes power in Mauritania

NOUAKCHOTT, Mauritania – Army officers upset with government overtures toward Islamic hard-liners staged a coup in Mauritania on Wednesday, overthrowing the first government to be freely elected in this sprawling desert nation in more than 20 years.

Pay close attention to the *reasons* behind this coup, government corruption and reaching out to Islamic hard-liners.

Corruption in the government?? Reaching out to, and generally submitting to Islamic *hard-liners?? Ignoring the safety and well being of the American people as ILLEGAL incursions, ie: armed invasion by Mexican army troops is allowed to happen on numerous occasions? Border patrol agent held at gunpoint

Does anyone besides me see the strong possibility that the USA could very well be headed in the same direction? Does anyone here today think that our own government isn’t guilty of the very same things?

Our Congress is out of control, and is run by a woman that is the most liberal thing to ever take the helm of the House of Representatives. Our Senate is being destroyed by the Dems, and the Dem LITE, ie: the former Republican party. Our President would support immediate amnesty for nearly 20 million ILLEGAL invaders if allowed, all the while allowing our southern border to be over-run.

Our own government has fallen to never before seen levels of disapproval, our President has an unbelievable level of disapproval, our financial markets are a day to day shamble, tremendous losses and reasonable gains, followed by more losses. We don’t have money, we have credit. We are owned by nations not our own.

There is a stage being set, right now, that is ripe for this very action to take place here in the USA. All the causes and reasons are in place, and where is our President today? In Beijing for the opening of the Olympic Games.

So, I guess what we have is this: Nero fiddled while Rome burned

Arizona and Illegal Immigration

May 21, 2008

Hat Tip to Ablur! 😀

Arizona is leading the nation in local enforcement of laws against illegal immigration. As illegal immigrants leave the state, the state’s most serious problems such as traffic congestion and the expense of teaching English Language Learner classes are dissipating.
Since Arizona’s local law enforcement began enforcing illegal immigration laws and an employer sanctions law went into effect, illegal immigrants have been fleeing the state in large numbers. The effects have been far-ranging. Commuters are reporting fewer vehicles on the freeways, shortening their rush-hour commutes. What had become a serious transportation problem in Arizona is losing its urgency. English Learner Language (ELL) students started dropping out of school. This helped end a confrontation between the state legislature and a liberal federal judge who had ordered the state to spend more money on ELL classes.

Fewer illegal immigrants are using hospital emergency rooms, so waiting times have decreased. Although the rest of the country is in an economic slump, unemployment is going down in Arizona, from 4.5% in January to 4.1% in March. Day laborers loitering outside of Home Depot and other stores have mostly disappeared, ending months of confrontation between illegal immigrant sympathizers and protesters. Desert lands near the border are returning to their pristine condition and the wildlife is coming back. Identity theft and car thefts are decreasing. No one showed up on May 1 to march in immigrant rallies.

With illegal immigrants leaving, the state will see huge savings as fewer illegal immigrants use social welfare programs and the cost of arresting, prosecuting, incarcerating and deporting them decreases. Arizona is facing one of the worst budget deficits ever, looming as high as $2 billion in 2009, but the situation may resolve itself.

On Anchor Babies

May 19, 2008

source: Earl1911

The problem we have today of “anchor” children (of illegal aliens) being granted citizenship, then providing the means for families of these illegal aliens to be allowed to enter our country – would not be an issue if the Constitution were being observed and applied.
 
The law that permits children born here to have immediate citizenship is contained in the 14th Amendment.
 
But was the Fourteenth Amendment Constitutionally Adopted? Not only NO, but HELL NO!
 
Many illegal methods were used by the radical, anti-Constitutional congress that followed the War between the States to force a major change in the balance of power between the federal and state governments. One method was by illegally injecting unratified amendments into our constitution.

When the concept of “State’s Rights” (10th Amendment to the Constitution) is brought up, generally people consider the issue belonging to the Southern states. However the South was not the exclusive advocate of the concept of State’s Rights and interposition. In earlier days it was the New England and Northern states that were the first to advocate and stand for these principles. They were also more successful in their efforts to use such to protect their vested interests. In 1808 Connecticut and Massachusetts endorsed interposition; the famous New England Secession Convention was held at Hartford, Connecticut, in 1814; the House of Representatives of Massachusetts in 1846 declared the war with Mexico to be unconstitutional; and many Northern states successfully nullified the fugitive slave acts, thereby overruling both the federal Congress and the federal Supreme Court.

Following the War between the States, the radical congress had revenge in mind. In its zeal to punish, plunder, and reconstruct the South, it greatly increased the congress at the expense of the states. Part of its tactics was the imposition of “forced” amendments, adopted without Constitutional justification and procedure. The process of adopting the Fourteenth Amendment, for example, was an example of repeated irregularities that gives insight into the glaring arguments regarding the legitimacy of all of the reconstruction era congressional acts.

In Ex parte Milligan, for example, the United States Supreme Court ruled that martial law could not be constitutionally imposed in the absence of war or rebellion and in areas where the civilian courts were functioning. The Reconstruction Act of March 1867 was a brazen and flagrant violation of this decision. Also, since congress had declared that the Southern states were without legal governments, it had trapped itself in a contradiction. Earlier Congress had accepted the ratification by the Southern states to the Thirteenth Amendment, but now Congress had declared these same states to be illegal. It was also apparent that this act denied civil rights to upwards of nine million Southerners. As such, it violated the Fifth Amendment guarantee of due process and was in direct violation of constitutional prohibitions against bills of attainder.*

To make the point of just how absurd it is to contend that the Fourteenth Amendment was legally ratified, assume the following:

1. Assume that the amendment had been constitutionally proposed, then;

2. Assume that the ratifications of Tennessee, Oregon and West Virginia were proper, then:

3. Assume that the rescission by New Jersey and Ohio were illegal.

THEN you are left with the problem that still Congress is six votes short of the number necessary for ratification.

Now comes the interesting part. To obtain the ratification of the remaining states, Congress required the Southern states to ratify in order to get back into the Union. But remember, states can vote on ratification of a constitutional amendment only if they were duly recognized as governments at the time they acted on the amendment. But Congress had already declared these “states” to be illegal governments and not a part of the Union – therefore their ratifications, according to constitutional principle, cannot be counted toward final ratification. Thus we are left with an amendment that was never ratified!

But let’s not stop there. The Southern States were forced to ratify the amendments. After learning that the South had rejected the Fourteenth Amendment, Senator James R. Doolittle of Wisconsin declared that the north would “march upon the them and force them to adopt it at the point of the bayonet.” Their ratification was therefore also illegal on the basis of duress.

Clearly, the Fourteenth Amendment was never constitutionally ratified, even if it had ever been constitutionally proposed.

* NOTE: A Bill of Attainder is described as a legislative act, no matter what its form, that applies either to named individuals or to easily ascertainable members of a group in such a way as to inflict punishment on them without a judicial trial.

The cost of being humanitarian?

May 17, 2008

Interesting how one of the top issues that confront the people of America has been swept under the table by all three presidential candidates. National sovereignty just is not on the table. Not a one of them thinks that there is anything wrong at all with being over run by people that take advantage of our generosity while breaking our laws. That innate kindness toward the downtrodden could very well be the catalyst that leads to an actual civil war here in these United States. Not all that surprisingly, Americans of Mexican decent that I grew up with are among the most outspoken of our brethren on the subject. One, a green eyed red haired Latina has been quite specific: “My father was a Marine, my brothers have all been Marines, Camp Pendleton is built on what was our family ranch since before California was a state. Now these people are coming here and destroying our way of life. They commit crimes against us, and then run back across the border where nothing is done to them. Tell you what? Out here in Fallbrook, we are gunning up, and pretty soon, we are just going to start shooting. Enough is enough.” *note; Her families land was the part of Camp Pendleton near Temecula, and what is the Navel Weapons Station.

Illegal immigration is still a serious problem whether the major candidates recognize it or not. Racist separatist groups such as La Raza are intent on overthrowing the United States, at least the western portion, and even into the southern regions of Canada in some places. How will they do it? As much as many would love for them to try a direct assault, which would doom them to oblivion, they will, and are using fifth column methodology’s, including using our strength (kindness) against ourselves. One method? Read below…

Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas is a fairly
famous institution and for a variety of reasons:

1. John F. Kennedy died there in
1963.
2. Lee Harvey Oswald died there shortly
after.
3. Jack Ruby-who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, died there a few
years later..by coincidence.

‘On the flip side, Parkland is also home to the second
busiest maternity ward in the country with almost 16,000 new babies arriving
each year. (That’s almost 44 per day—every day)

A recent patient survey indicated that 70 percent of the women who gave
birth at Parkland in the first three months of 2006 were illegal
immigrants. That’s 11,200 anchor babies
born every year just in Dallas .

According to the article, the hospital spent $70.7
million delivering 15,938 babies in 2004 but managed to end up with almost $8
million dollars in surplus funding. Medicaid kicked in $34.5 million, Dallas
County taxpayers kicked in $31.3 million and the feds tossed in another $9.5
million.

The average patient in Parkland in maternity wards is
25 years old, married and giving birth to her second
child.

She is also an illegal
immigrant.

By law, pregnant women cannot be denied medical care
based on their immigration status or ability to pay. OK, fine. That
doesn’t mean they should receive better care than everyday, middle-class
American citizens. But at Parkland Hospital , they do. ‘ Parkland Memorial
Hospital has nine prenatal clinics’.

That’s right !!!!
NINE.

The Dallas Morning News article followed a Hispanic woman who was a
patient at one of the clinics and pregnant with her third child—her previous
two were also born at Parkland . Her first two deliveries were free and the
Mexican native was grateful because it would have cost
$200 to have them in Mexico
This time, the hospital wants her to pay $10 per visit and $100 for the
delivery but she was unsure if she could come up with the money. Not that it
matters, the hospital won’t turn her away. (I wonder why they even bother asking
at this point.)

‘How long has this been going on? What are the long-term
affects?
Well, another subject of the article was born at
Parkland in 1986 shortly after her mother entered the US illegally – now she is
having her own child there as well. (That’s right, she’s technically a US
citizen.)

These women receive free prenatal care including
medication, nutrition, birthing classes and child care classes. They also get
freebies such as car seats, bottles, diapers and
formula.

Most of these things are available to American
citizens as well but only for low-income applicants and even then, the red tape
involved is almost insurmountable.

Because these women are illegal immigrants, they do
not have to provide any sort of legitimate identification – no proof of income.
An American citizen would have to provide a social security number which would
reveal their annual income – an illegal immigrant need only claim to be poor and
the hospital must take them at their word.

Parkland Hospital offers indigent care to Dallas County residents who earn less
than $40,000 per year. (They also have to prove that they did not refuse health
coverage at their current job. Yeah, the ‘free’ care is not so easy for
Americans.)

There are about 140 patients who received roughly $4 million dollars for
un-reimbursed medical care. As it turns out, they did not qualify for free
treatment because they resided outside of Dallas County so the hospital
is going to sue them! Illegals get it all free! But U. S citizens who live outside of Dallas County get sued! How
stupid
is this?

As if that isn’t annoying enough,
the illegal immigrant patients are actually complaining about hospital staff
not speaking Spanish . In this AP story, the author speaks with a
woman who is upset that she had to translate comments from the hospital staff
into Spanish for her husband. The doctor was trying to explain the situation to
the family and the mother was forced to translate for her husband who only spoke
Spanish. This was apparently a great injustice to
her.

In an attempt to create a Spanish-speaking staff,
Parkland Hospital is now providing incentives in the form of extra pay for
applicants who speak Spanish. Additionally, medical students at the University
of Texas Southwestern for which Parkland Hospital is the training facility will
now have a Spanish language requirement added to their already jammed-packed
curriculum. No other school in the country boasts such a ridiculous
multi-semester (multicultural) requirement.

( Sorry for the length, but this needs wide circulation
particularly to our’employees’ in Congress.)

Remember that this is only ONE
hospital in Dallas , Texas There are many more hospitals across our
country that also have to deal with this.
