GUNS: Why DID everyone sneer when the NRA suggested protecting schools?
Saturday, January 5, 2013THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE
Number 703, December 30, 2012
“Put some nice, long, jaggedy teeth in the Bill of Rights”
http://ncc-1776.org/tle2012/tle703-20121230-01.html#letter01
Would SOMEBODY please explain this to me?
Let me preface this by saying I don’t support the NRA. They do more harm to the pro-gun movement by collaborating on the creation of gun laws. I do not support public schools. I believe them to be liberal indoctrination stations, little more than state mandated jails for the young. It is the duty of parents to provide for the education of their children, not to simply surrender control of their children for 8 hours a day to union-backed imbeciles. I home school. I am not a christian. I am, in fact, an agnostic at most, an atheist more likely. I am the type of Libertarian the Libertarian Party hates. I am vehemently in favor of eliminating 99% of gun laws. So, now you know where I stand. I am NOT going to discuss gun ownership here. That is fodder for another article. Arguments over whether people should be permitted to own guns are off topic and will be deleted. Stick to the question asked, please. Feel free to answer the polls, and explain your answers in a comment. Now, to the question I need answered.
Would someone PLEASE explain to me why it is an evil thing to suggest we need armed guards in all public schools. Please note- I don’t necessarily mean POLICE guards. Just trained, armed guards. It can be teachers, janitors, volunteers, security guards from private security services, or even National Guardsmen doing their 2 weeks a year. We do not have a problem with armed guards in banks and armored cars. We don’t have a problem with armed guards at our courthouses and public buildings. We don’t have a problem with armed guards at our airports. But we DO have a problem with armed guards protecting our most valuable possessions~ Our children. I am an armed American. I have a CCW. I have training in the use of firearms, in proper concealed carry, and when NOT to use a weapon. I paid for it myself, because I feel it is necessary if I am going to carry. I got the training years ago, when I lived where it was not required to get a license to carry open, and easy as hell to get a CCW. Now, where I currently live, I needed nothing but a Hunter Safety card and references to get my CCW ( which is more than I think is permitted under the 2nd Amendment, but I digress). I carry quite often. Even though I homeschool, I would volunteer a day or two a week to stand guard over your children. I wonder why so many of you consider this somehow abhorrent. Our money, our court system, our government buildings, and our president are somehow more worthy of the expense of protecting than your children are.
Please tell me why!!!

TINFOILHAT: What was the truth in Dallas?
Friday, January 4, 2013
*** begin quote ***
In the intervening years a body of literature questioning the official conclusions of the Warren Commission, and the events themselves, led the vast majority of Americans to conclude that there was a conspiracy that went beyond Oswald, or in some cases one that framed Oswald and concealed the real killers. That majority has not really wavered to this day. A small group of researchers worked on the JFK case over those years, filing FOIA requests, digging into new evidence, interviewing witnesses the Commission ignored or misrepresented, giving lectures to the public, and calling for a new investigation. There was enough public pressure in that direction by the mid-1970s to convince Congress to create a Select Committee of the House to study the murders of both President Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Hobbled by political considerations and the loss of its original staff director, homicide prosecutor Richard Sprague, the HSCA failed to answer many questions about the forensic evidence and the guilt of the alleged assassins, but did end its probe in 1978, concluding that there had been a “probably conspiracy” which it instructed the Justice Department and FBI to investigate further. To date, those agencies have neither done an honest or thorough investigation of these murders, nor examined the evidence pointing to the role of J. Edgar Hoover, former FBI director in both the assassinations and the cover-up. The HSCA Chairman then ordered their extensive investigative files sealed from public view for 50 years, until 2028. President Johnson had also sealed the Warren Commission investigative files for 75 years in 1965, for potential release in 2035. Freedom of Information Act requests and legal suits succeeded in the getting several thousands of pages released from 1964-1994, but nowhere near the complete classified records on JFK alone.
*** end quote ***
It certainly seems that the American Sheeple had the proverbial wool pulled over their collective eyes!
I peobably won’t be alive when the truth does come out, but I remember the events.
How could this happen here?
Easy, the Sheeple don’t care.
As long as the TV is on and the dole continues uninterrupted, what is there to care about.
Argh!

MONEY: TARP was theft
Thursday, January 3, 2013It’s Not a Tax or Spending Problem … It’s a Devolution Into Lawlessness
By Washingtons Blog – December 26th, 2012, 1:30AM
It’s Not a “Fiscal Cliff” … It’s the Descent Into Lawlessness
*** begin quote ***
Numerous top economists say that the bank bailouts are the largest robbery and redistribution of wealth in history.
Why was this illegal? Well, the top white collar fraud expert in the country says that the Bush and Obama administrations broke the law by failing to break up insolvent banks … instead of propping them up by bailing them out.
And the Special Inspector General of the Tarp bailout program said that the Treasury Secretary lied to Congress regarding some fundamental aspects of Tarp – like pretending that the banks were healthy, when they were totally insolvent. The Secretary also falsely told Congress that the bailouts would be used to dispose of toxic assets … but then used the money for something else entirely. Making false statements to a federal official is illegal, pursuant to 18 United States Code Section 1001.
So breaking the rules to bail out the big, insolvent banks, is destroying our prosperity.
A strong rule of law is essential for a prosperous and stable economy, yet the government made it official policy not to prosecute fraud, even though criminal fraud is the main business model adopted by the giant banks.
*** end quote ***
It seems like it is time to hold the politicians and bureaucrats accountable for the lies and frauds.
My favorite is DonwsizeDC with its Read The Bills and One Subject At A Time ideas,
Of course, if no one is held accountable, then it really doesn’t matter.

POLITICAL: Smoking is just the tip of the iceberg

Puff Away in Paley Park!
Posted by David Kramer on December 25, 2012 06:45 PM
*** begin quote ***
Though Hitler-admirer Nazi Bloomberg banned all smoking in public outdoor parks in Nazi York City, there is one small outdoor park where one can still sit back and enjoy a fine cigar: Paley Park. Why? Because Paley Park is a privately-owned park built by the late head of CBS, William S. Paley. Paley, a former smoker, believed that smoking was a God-given right, so he made sure that smoking was allowed on what is effectively his private property.
*** end quote ***
I think we need to throw Gooferment out of our personal lives!
Smoking is just the tip of the iceberg.
Guns, marriage, professional licenses, taxis, flood insurance, mortgage guarantees, “too big to fail”, … …
All areas of our life that should be off limits to Gooferment action.
Argh!

RANT: The Pledge

She Will Not Pledge Her Allegiance
Posted by Travis Holte on December 22, 2012 09:27 PM
BillyRock refuses to go with the herd.
# – # – #
Dear Usual:
The revolt begins. One person at a time realizing. BTW the “pledge” was invented by a guy who sold flags to schools and was a Nazi.
And, when you have time, think about what the “pledge” means.
Or, maybe the roles: “A citizen pledges alegience in exchange for protection”. Don’t know about you but I don’t feel very protected. I feel more like the English Saxon who needed a Robin Hood.
Maybe even the Dead Old White Guys, who objected to the King’s infringements. Substitute the Federal Government and the mob of drones that control it. The crony capitalism. And the increasing losses of freedom.
The “Gun Control” debate isn’t about “GUNS”; it is about “CONTROL”. “Victim disarmament is the view that it is somehow better to see a woman raped in an alley and strangled with her own pantyhose, than see her with a gun in her hand.” — T.D. Melrose And, we can’t allow the people any tool to resist the gooferment. “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? . . .” — Alexander Solzhenitsyn
You really don’t think that the Civil War aka the War of Nothern Aggression was about slavery. You don’t get your history lessons from the movie LINCOLN — who was the absolute worst two-face President by far.
Then think about the fiscal cliff debate and how they feel that they can take HALF of what you earn without even some much as a “thank you”? Evne the Bible says 10% max to God.
I wonder what will bring the Clovers (a modern name for the Sheeple) to the streets.
Are you ready for the 5% tax increase on 1/1. And the Obamacare tax of 3.8% that kicks in. And the 1.2% increase in FICA. And, that doctors will be paid 17% less.
And, the Prez in in Hawaii enjoying a much need vacation.
Please.
I haven’t stood for the Pledge in a long time.
If they want to sing, I sing along with GOD BLESS AMERICA, or Woddie Guthrie’s THIS LAND IS YOU LAND, or any anti-war song.
Time for a change and it starts with you. I’ve already changed.
:-)
Merry Christmas. Enjoy it while you still can. Maybe the Myans were right; they just had the date wrong.

MEMORIES: News story, tshirt, and a laff
Monday, December 31, 2012
Heard about HRC having to spend NYD in the hospital. As much as I don’t like her politically, I wish her a speedy recovery. The talking heads were lamenting about her, in the hospital, on NYD, and how dreary. Brought me back to a NYD I spent in RWJ with Frau Reinke. When Frau regretted that I had to spend the day there with her, I commented: “Hey, it’s not bad. Any day, I spend with you is a good day where ever it is. Some day, I may look back and wish for a day like this.” She called me “silly”. That look back day is today. Then, by luck, here’s the tshirt that was next in the “rotation”. I still remember her laughing with Marge when the guy in the elevator of the Indian Casino got real close to read her chest. LOL!!!

POLITICAL: How much pork is in “Sandy” relief?
Monday, December 31, 2012*** begin quote ***
Dear Friend,
This is a critical week for New Jersey.
This week the United States Congress will vote on a Sandy Relief Package that will provide $60.4 billion to help New Jersey and other states recover and rebuild from the devastation of Superstorm Sandy.
While $60 billon is an incredible amount of money, numbers alone fail to paint the full picture of what we have seen throughout New Jersey. The full story lies in the faces of displaced people who find themselves homeless; their possessions and keepsakes gone. The full story lies with the small business owners who have had to shut their doors.
The preliminary damage estimate provided by Governor Christie is now up to $36.9 billion. So $60.4 billion in federal disaster relief funding to be spread across the region is a good start. But we must pass the Sandy Relief Package quickly, and in its entirety, so we can tell New Jerseyans that they are not alone; that all Americans are in this together. This vote says that we are ready as a nation to help families, businesses, and communities recover.
Yesterday, on the Senate floor, I once again made the case for New Jersey. I made the case for New Jersey families and small businesses still trying to recover; for homeowners in Little Ferry; shopkeepers in Moonachie; for every family who lost property and possessions all along the Jersey Shore and across the State; for our commuters who rely on public transportation to get to school and work; for those who lost power and went without fuel.
And, while some of my Republican colleagues may not be able to fathom the sheer scope of the damage, I explained that entire neighborhoods — where several generations of families lived in close-knit communities – are now gone; that thousands of decades-old small businesses are ruined. I pointed out that even though those scenes are no longer showing in living rooms across the country, it doesn’t mean that the recovery is over.
The need is clear for the passage of the entire Sandy Relief Package. A piecemeal recovery will be a stalled recovery and, in all likelihood, a failed recovery. And failure to recover and rebuild New Jersey’s infrastructure, economy, small businesses and communities is not an option.
This is one country: the United States of America. And when there was destruction along the entire Gulf Coast with Katrina, or a tornado in Joplin, Missouri, or crop destruction in the Midwest, we have come together as a nation to support these communities. The time is now for all members of Congress to stand with New Jersey, just as we have stood with them in times of crisis and natural disasters.
New Jersey has been battered, but we are not broken. We are stronger and more united in our efforts to work together to recover, rebuild, and recommit ourselves to uniting around our common concerns and shared values. That is the lesson we have learned, and together we will rebuild. The Garden State will bloom once again.
And I for one will not rest until the rebuilding is done.
Sincerely,
Robert Menendez
United States Senator
*** end quote ***
Why, o why, am I so cynical?
What’s in the bill?
And, why is it a Federal problem?
Sorry, but the Gooferement isn’t insurance.
Or even kind.
The politicians and bureaucrats steal from us. distribute our own fnds, and then claim the mantle of sainthood for themselves.
Argh!

INTERESTING: A legal filing as a comic
Sunday, December 30, 2012A Work of Art: Bob Kohn Submits DoJ Amicus Brief as Comic Strip
By Andrew Albanese | Sep 04, 2012
*** begin quote ***
For those in publishing who have followed the DoJ price-fixing case, it has from the start seemed at times like a cartoonish affair. Now, thanks to former music executive and RoyaltyShare founder Bob Kohn, it is a cartoon. Handcuffed by the court’s decision to re-file his argument against the DoJ’s settlement with three publishers in just five pages, Kohn filed the brief in the form of a comic strip.
***end quote ***
Not sure how this will work out for him, but I loved it.
Easy to understand and quite rational.
And, why do we allow music to be price fixed?
Or milk?
