Voting for Hillary...

51% of your friends and neighbors voted for obama because he presented himself as black, and they believed him. That's kinda like eating poodle poop because it looks like a Tootsie Roll...

Walter Williams on Multi-culturalism...
Multiculturalism: A Failed Concept By Walter E.Williams June 29, 2016
German Chancellor Angela Merkel declared that multiculturalism has "utterly failed," adding that it was an illusion to think Germans and foreign workers could "live happily side by side." The failure of multiculturalism is also seen in Denmark, Sweden, the United Kingdom, France, Belgium and other European countries. Immigrants coming from Africa and the Middle East refuse to assimilate and instead seek to import the failed cultures they fled.

Leftist diversity
advocates and multiculturalists are right to argue that people of all
races, religions and cultures should be equal in the eyes of the law.
But their argument borders on idiocy when they argue that one set of
cultural values cannot be judged superior to another and that to do so
is Eurocentrism.
That's unbridled nonsense. Ask a diversity/multiculturalism advocate: Is forcible female genital mutilation, as practiced in nearly 30 sub-Saharan African and Middle Eastern countries, a morally equivalent cultural value? Slavery is practiced in northern Sudan. In most of the Middle East, there are numerous limits placed on women, such as prohibitions on driving, employment and education. Under Islamic law, in some countries, female adulterers face death by stoning, and thieves are punished by having their hand severed. In some African and Middle Eastern countries, homosexuality is a crime, in some cases punishable by death. Are all these cultural values morally equivalent to those of the West?
The vital achievement of the West was the concept of individual rights, which saw its birth with the Magna Carta in 1215. The idea emerged that individuals have certain inalienable rights. Individuals do not exist to serve government; governments exist to protect their rights. But it was not until the 19th century that ideas of liberty received broad recognition. In the West, it was mostly through the works of British philosophers, such as John Locke, David Hume, Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill.
Personal liberty implies toleration of differences among people, whether those differences are racial, sexual, ideological or political. Liberty also implies a willingness to permit others who disagree with you to go their separate ways. This is not the vision of the new immigrants. In some parts of Britain, Christians are threatened with violence for merely handing out Bibles. Trying to convert Muslims to Christianity is seen as a hate crime. Women are accosted by Muslim men for "improper" dress. Many women are sexually assaulted. In many European countries, "no-go zones" — where civil authorities will not enter — in which Shariah is practiced have been established. According to the Express, "London, Paris, Stockholm and Berlin are among the major European cities that feature on a bombshell list of 900 lawless zones with large immigrant populations" (http://tinyurl.com/hubbxuw).
Both in Europe and in the U.S., multiculturalism is a leftist elitist vision with its roots in academia. The intellectual elite, courts and government agencies push an agenda that is anything but a defense of individual rights, freedom from conformity and a live-and-let-live philosophy. Instead, multiculturalism/diversity is an agenda for all kinds of conformity — conformity in ideas, actions and speech. It calls for re-education programs where diversity managers indoctrinate students, faculty members, employees, managers and executives on what's politically correct thinking. Part of that lesson is nonjudgmentalism, where one is taught that one lifestyle is just as worthy as another and all cultures and their values are morally equivalent.
Western values are superior to all others. But one need not be a Westerner to hold Western values. A person can be Chinese, Japanese, Jewish, African or Arab and hold Western values. By the way, it is no accident that Western values of reason and individual rights have produced unprecedented health, life expectancy, wealth and comfort for the ordinary person. There's an indisputable positive relationship between liberty and standards of living. There is also indisputable evidence that we in the West are unwilling to defend ourselves from barbarians. Just look at our response to the recent Orlando massacre, in which we've focused our energies on guns rather than on terrorists.

All we have to do is stand up...
~~~~~~~
Yup. But we won't. Not yet. Not until it effects us personally. Individually. Then it will be too late. :) Human nature, I think. Nah. Conditioning. Conditioned to believe in and to follow the rules.
We will have a few more "One Man Uprisings". No one will follow. Again.
But remember this: The opposition doesn't follow the rules. Not the same rules, anyway...
St. George Tucker...
This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty…The right
of self defense is the first law of nature: in most government it has
been the study of rules to confirm this right within the narrowest
limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of
the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color of pretext
whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the
brink of destruction.

Similar cover below from April of 2012... Is the above "shopped"? Perhaps. Looks like a publish date on a Saturday. I think Army Times publishes on Mondays. Also not a military ordered date. IE: 25 June 2016. Ouch. My bad.

What others say...
Her actual words:
1) "Where is the God damn flag? I want the God damn fucking flag up every morning at fucking sunrise". Hillary to staff at the Arkansas Governor's mansion on Labor Day 1991. From the book "Inside the White House" by Ronald Kessler, p. 244
(2) "Fuck off! It's enough I have to see you shit-kickers every day!
I'm not going to talk to you, too! Just do your Goddamn job and keep
your mouth shut." Hillary to her State Trooper bodyguards after one of
them greeted her with "Good Morning." From the book "America Evita" by
Christopher Anderson, p.90
(3) "If you want to remain on this detail, get your fucking ass over here and grab those bags!" Hillary to a Secret Service Agent who was reluctant to carry her luggage because he wanted to keep his hands free in case of an incident. From the book "The First Partner" p. 25
(4) "Stay the fuck back, stay the fuck back away from me! Don't come within ten yards of me, or else! Just fucking do as I say, Okay!!?" Hillary screaming at her Secret Service detail. From the book "Unlimited Access" by Clinton 's FBI Agent-in-Charge, Gary Aldridge, p.139
(5) "Where's the miserable cock sucker?" (otherwise known as "Bill Clinton") Hillary shouting at a Secret Service officer. From the book "The Truth about Hillary" by Edward Klein, p. 5
(6) "You fucking idiot" Hillary to a State Trooper who was driving her to an event. From the book "Crossfire" ~pg. 84
(7) "Put this on the ground! I left my sunglasses in the limo. I need those fucking sunglasses! We need to go back!รข€ Hillary to Marine One helicopter pilot to turn back while in route to Air Force One. From the book " Dereliction of Duty" p. 71-72
(8) "Come on Bill, put your dick up! You can't fuck her here!!" Hillary to Gov. Bill Clinton when she spots him talking with an attractive female. From the book "Inside the White House" by Ronald Kessler, p. 243
There it is ........book, chapter and page.......the real Hillary Rotten Clinton!
Additionally, when she walked around the White House, NO ONE was permitted to look her in the eye, they all had to lower their heads with their eyes towards the ground whenever she walked by. Clearly she is a class act!
This ill-tempered, violent, loud-mouth, hateful and abusive woman wants to be your next President, and have total control as Commander-in-Chief of our Military, the very Military for which she has shown incredible disdain throughout her public life .
Remember her most vile comment about Benghazi: "What difference at this point does it make?"
Now it will be clear why the crew of "Marine One" helicopter nick-named the craft, "Broomstick ONE "

I dunno... She doesn't seem very "Presidential" to me.
The AR-15
I think this is from about 1964, or so. $189.50
A little story about the civilian version of the AR-15.
The comments are fairly typical of any modern article regarding the history of the AR-15. "Yes he did", "No he didn't"
Anyway... Enjoy.

As my friend Craig says...
1. Rights come as an endowment from our creator.
2. Rights are inalienable and cannot be abridged, without due process AND probable cause.
3. These rights, to self defense, and privacy are granted in PART to the state BY the individual under the social contract.
4. It is therefore IMPOSSIBLE for the right granter, to have less rights, than the one to whom the party has socially contracted.
5. As a recipient of the right of another to act on their behalf, the standard for that action because it is a limited license, is HIGHER than it is for the individual.
In conclusion therefore, a peace officer has no authority to randomly stop people whom he does not have any probable cause to believe that an actual crime against persons or property has occurred.
It is a wicked, immoral, and tyrannical abuse of the limited powers granted him, to do so.

I have been asking... How did he get inside the club? Did he just walk in the front door with an Ar and a handgun? Curious.
