A homosexual and a hero...
From "I Still Don't Like Obama" on Facebook...
A basketball player, who has been a benchwarmer his entire career, comes out as gay and the media going into a leftist wet dream frenzy. Then, he gets a call from President Wrecking Ball himself. An American war hero gets tragically murdered and the media says nothing, the president says nothing.
~~~~~~
Agendas. Priorities.
Welcome to the "new" America.
I still can't figure out why anyone would want to broadcast their sexual orientation to the entire world, homosexual or otherwise. People place "labels" on themselves then complain that they are being labeled. Not just homosexuals... So many people.
Makes no sense to me.
Perhaps I'm just not enlightened enough?

Gun control... It just won't die...
From David P.
WASHINGTON — Talks to revive gun control legislation are quietly under way on Capitol Hill as a bipartisan group of senators seeks a way to bridge the differences that led to last week’s collapse of the most serious effort to overhaul the country’s gun laws in 20 years.
Drawing on the lessons from battles in the 1980s and ’90s over the Brady Bill, which failed in Congress several times before ultimately passing, gun control supporters believe they can prevail by working on a two-pronged strategy. First, they are identifying senators who might be willing to change their votes and support a background check system with fewer loopholes.
Second, they are looking to build a national campaign that would better harness overwhelming public support for universal background checks — which many national polls put at near 90 percent approval — to pressure lawmakers.
~~~~~
We all know that the meme "90% of all people polled nationally approve of expanded background checks" is something that the obama administration created out of magic fairy dust. It just isn't true. It goes along with the other obama lie that states 82% of Americans want stronger gun control.
Ahhhh well...
Stay safe.

After the blast...

I was reading over at Curtis' Place this morning and had a moment of clarity. I posted a comment on his blog, which in turn became this blog post...

.
And none of the hundreds (perhaps thousands?) of militarized "cops" who were involved in this "operation" cared that they were violating the unalienable constitutional (and human) rights of the citizens.
These "cops" are brainwashed to the point that they are useful for nothing else. This was "the moment that they've been waiting all of their lives for". The opportunity to force others to do their bidding via a "show of force". This "show of force" was extremely important to each of them. This "show of force" was infinitely important to the Powers That Be.
The fact that these cops were violating the God given rights of their fellow citizens meant absolutely nothing to them. That thought never even entered their minds. Empathy for their fellow citizens has been erased from their psyche. They are sociopaths. Do the militarized forces that exist today draw sociopaths to their ranks, or do they create sociopaths? Does it matter? Can any individual become a member of one of these forces today without being or becoming a sociopath?
And the people... The people who allowed themselves to be ripped from their homes and herded down the street like cattle... Like the German Jews to the concentration camps, or the Russians to the Gulag, or the Cambodians to the Killing Fields. Or the American Indian at the hand of the white man.
This is no different. It has happened thousands of times throughout history. This was simply a trial run. A test.
It has to start somewhere.
Now the Powers That Be know how far they can go. The PTB now know how much evil the people will tolerate. The PTB know that they are now free to go "all the way" without resistance. They know that their Jack Booted Thugs, their minions, will be able to return safely to their families at the end of their shift and that the citizens will do whatever they are told to do. Its important that the JBT are able to return home at the end of their shift. Knowing that they will be safe at the end of the day is what keeps them in the fold.
We have turned that final corner as a nation. We have taken the final step. You can deny it as much as you want to. You can try to rationalize it. You can even get comfortable in your own mind believing that its an aberration, that things will settle down and get back to "normal".
But, in the deep dark recesses of your mind, if you are honest with yourself, you know that this is the new normal. Its the way it is. It ain't a gonna change anytime soon.
The one thing that we do know for sure is that actions such as these, the Nazis, the Soviets, the Khmer Rouge, all of them... they ultimately fail.
In the end, the vast majority of
What makes the PTB think that this time will be any different? What makes them believe that they can succeed where other despots have failed? Quite simply, it is their arrogance and their ego. It goes no deeper than that.

A short message...
The saddest, albeit possibly most accurate short message you will readWritten by a USMC Vet( I can't argue with any of it. Passing it along as it was received. )
He wrote:
The American Dream ended (on November 6th) in Ohio. The second term of Barack Obama will be the final nail in the coffin for the legacy of the white Christian males who discovered, explored, pioneered, settled and developed the greatest Republic in the history of mankind.
A coalition of Blacks, Latinos, Feminists, Gays, Government Workers, Union Members, Environmental Extremists, The Media, Hollywood, uninformed young people, the "forever needy," the chronically unemployed, illegal aliens and other "fellow travelers" have ended Norman Rockwell's America.
The Cocker Spaniel is off the front porch...the Pit Bull is in the back yard.The American Constitution has been replaced with Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" and Chicago shyster, David Axelrod, along with international Socialist George Soros will be pulling the strings on their beige puppet to bring us Act 2 of the New World Order.
Our side ran two candidates who couldn't even win their own home states, and the circus fattster Chris Christie helped Obama over the top with a glowing "post Sandy" tribute that elevated the "Commander-in-Chief" to Mother Teresa status.People like me are completely politically irrelevant, and I will never again comment on or concern myself with the aforementioned coalition which has surrendered our culture, our heritage and our traditions without a shot being fired.
You will never again out vote these people. It will take individual acts of defiance and massive displays of civil disobedience to get back the rights we have allowed them to take away. It will take Zealots, not moderates--not reach-across-the-aisle RINOs to right this ship and restore our beloved country to its former status.
Those who come after us will have to risk their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to bring back the Republic that this generation has timidly frittered away due to "white guilt" and political correctness.....
I'm done.

It was their dream...
It was their dream because so many of the killings in the past had been perpetrated by angry, white, left-wing Americans. Or our government. They sooooooo wanted it to be someone other than another mentally deranged Liberal.
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
I notice that Ms. Temple-Raston didn't mention Waco while she was talking about April being a big month... Oh! Wait! That was perpetrated by Janet the First and the Clinton administration. The Liberal government killing American citizens.
I also think that she confused Columbine with Oklahoma City.
And Chris Matthews? Is he really that stupid?
And people seriously wonder why our nation is so divided?

Welcome to the New Amerika...
Miranda Rights Won't Be Read For Boston Bombing Suspect: Justice Official
WASHINGTON -- A Justice Department official says the Boston Marathon bombing suspect will not be read his Miranda rights because the government is invoking a public safety exception.
That official and a second person briefed on the investigation says 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will be questioned by a special interrogation team for high-value suspects. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to disclose the information publicly.
The public safety exception permits law enforcement officials to engage in a limited and focused unwarned interrogation of a suspect and allows the government to introduce the statement as evidence in court. The public safety exception is triggered when police officers have an objectively reasonable need to protect the police or the public from immediate danger.

The new Freedom...
Nathan Leal's latest article over at The Watchman's Cry on the New Freedom in Amerika.
Dead "Bombers" tell No Tales. Neither do "Dead" Men! Welcome to AmeriKa!
This is why the foundation of old America was based on a Constitution that supported rights for freedom which included the right to a trial and the presumption of innocence until PROVEN GUILTY!
The presumption of innocence is a foundational cornerstone of a free society.
But over the past few days, we have all become witnesses to the new courtroom. A tribunal where justice is exercised with the bullets of SWAT teams and Homeland Security agents.
In the old days, a description of a suspect qualified their guilt or innocence with the word, "alleged!" But now with the instantaneous dynamic of the media, people are being indoctrinated to desire a quick remedy which includes blood and a dead body.
Lest we forget, we just saw this happen in California with the ex-officer, Christopher Dorner, who was accused of having a manifesto....He was executed!
You can read the rest here.
~~~~~
Something to think about. I'm pretty sure that Nathan's thoughts are similar to what many of you already think.
The actions of the law enforcement community after the Boston bombing is a perfect example of the militarization of our police forces today. Don't think it's just in the big cities and that it "can't happen here" in your small corner of Amerika. It is everywhere. No one even had to go out and recruit these people. They all volunteered once they saw a SWAT Team on TV all those years ago.
I have a serious problem with the "end justifies the means" mentality that these LEOs exhibited throughout this entire operation.
I also think that there is more to the story.
I will admit that I am surprised that Suspect #2 was taken alive.
Ahhhh well. No speculation today from my little corner of the world. :)
Stay safe.

The new freedom has arrived! Only it is not free, nor is it
new.
World history is already littered with this type of society; a society where
the peasants hide from the raiders who attack the villages. History is populated
with the tales of government marauders who oppress the commoners.This is why the foundation of old America was based on a Constitution that supported rights for freedom which included the right to a trial and the presumption of innocence until PROVEN GUILTY!

An interesting twist...
Updated, April 19th, 10:23 am Eastern
The Boston Marathon bombing suspects have been identified as brothers originally from Chechnya. Both men have been identified as Muslim. Suspect 1, deceased, was identified as 26 year old Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Suspect 2, still at large, is his 19 year old brother Dzhokar Tsarnaev. The city is on lockdown with all residents being urged to stay in their homes. No transportation is running.
Updated: April 19th, 5:29 am Eastern
One police officer is dead after previous shootout. Another is in critical condition. Suspect 1 that died is said to have had multiple gunshot wounds and shrapnel.
Here is the link.
Stay safe.
Been gone...
I've been gone for a few days so I'm a bit out of touch.
Let me get this straight...
Suspect number 1 is dead. Suspect number 2 is at large but he has changed clothes since Monday and is no longer wearing the white ballcap backward? Someone used the gun belonging to the dead cop in the shootout.
The original Suspect number 1, a member of the House of Saud and with ties to al Qaeda, was released and sent back to the Middle East after a conversation between a "high ranking government official" and the Saudi Ambassador? Is that correct? Pretty much correct?
And Biden tells the Grabbers that obama has some "Executive Solutions" up his sleeve to implement gun control after it failed in the Senate?
How much ya wanna bet that when (if?) they identify suspects #1 & 2 we'll find out that they were disenchanted Liberal pukes with mental disorders and ties to al Qaeda? Or something.
Nevermind... I'm not going to speculate. I'll just wait for the MSM torepeat report the information that the cops give them.
obama is pissed that gun control measures in the Senate failed miserably. It's the fault of the NRA. They have too much power. (Remember that the NRA is an organization created to represent the People, not unlike the UAW or the Teacher's Union or the Government Employees Union or any other Union that lobbies in Washington D.C.) According to obama, the Senate failed the people.
Gabby Giffords is pissed. Expanded background checks work so well. Ask the folks in New York State who have had their firearms confiscated. Oh wait! That's due to a public safety clause in the obamacare bill. Remember, they said obamacare couldn't be used to confiscate your guns.
A link from David. 5 minutes. Watch the video.
obama has been spewing the 80% and 92% statistics for the past month. Remember... either 80% or 92% of gun owners were in favor of expanded background checks?
Don't forget that 40% of all gun sales take place outside the system and don't include a background check. Also, you can buy firearms over the internet without any background checks. They just send them straight to your house.
Must be true... obama said it was.
Happy Patriots' Day.
Remember Waco.
Think about OKC.
Oh! I almost forgot. It was kinda cold and it was snowy in South Dakota, but it was good. :)
