Betsy Devos Bombs On “Guns in School”

Being a conservative and not understanding the applicability of guns in American society is like being a sports analyst with no athletic experience.

Many “conservative” elites in policy making pay lip service to the idea of the Second Amendment because, as conservatives, they are obligated to a prima facie support of the Constitution.

In reality most elites, conservative or liberal, have no idea why our founders insisted we have unobstructed access to firearms of our choosing. 

If asked they fall back on rehearsed answers about the right to self-defense or hunting, neither of which are mentioned in the 27 words of the Second Amendment. (1) 

Betsy Devos, Donald Trump's pick to head the Department of Education, demonstrated her ignorance about guns in American society earlier today when pelted with questions by anti-gun Senator Christopher Murphy of Connecticut.

Devos' response was bewildering considering Murphy gave her so much rope to hang him with and because no bear, grizzly, black, or brown, has ever attempted an active shooting in a federally-mandated gun free public school.

In all seriousness Devos, had she any practical or philosophical experience with firearms, could have boiled Murphy in his own water with any of the following responses: 

"Well, Mr. Murphy, school resource officers are armed with guns. Are you suggesting armed law enforcement officers not protect our school children." 

"Well, Mr. Murphy, some states authorize public school teachers to receive CLEET certification to protect their students from active shootings with guns. Are you suggesting armed citizens with law enforcement training not protect our school children from active shooters?"

"Well, Mr. Murphy, had one teacher at Sandy Hook been armed with a gun she could have killed Adam Lanza as he smashed his way into that elementary school, which was on lock down. Instead, a federal mandate that you support prevented any Sandy Hook teacher from being armed and, as a result, twenty children were murdered as they screamed for their parents. So, yes, Mr. Murphy. I can say, definitively today, that guns should be in schools." 

Instead Betsy Devos choked at Senator Murphy's questions, ending her response with an apology for the "gun violence" that rocked Connecticut in December 2012. (2)

Very disappointing. "Sad!"

 Footnotes:

1. Ask your state and federal representatives why the Second Amendment exists.  Their response will likely be anything but "defense from tyranny of the state", unless they are Libertarian or members of the Tea Party. 

2. No gun, in the global history of firearms, has ever committed an act of violence. Guns, despite pronouncements of the left, are inanimate objects that cannot function without human intervention. 

Call To Action: Support the ATF Elimination ACT

Please call and email your federal representatives to support, and forward to (soon) President Trump, Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner's ATF Elimination Act.

US House of Representatives

US Senate

The ATF Elimination Act will abolish an abusive and corrupt government agency while transferring its “exclusive duties” to the FBI and DEA. (1)

 

Yes, federal gun, tobacco, and explosives law will still be enforced. (2) The ATF Elimination Act will simply remove a costly, unconstitutional, and redundant federal agency best associated with corruption and assaults on every human liberty listed in the Bill of Rights. (3)

Opposition to the ATF Elimination Act by congressional liberals and the institutional Republican neo-con mafia, who refuse to cut a single deficit dollar or wasteful bureaucracy, will be formidable. 

 

It is, therefore, imperative you call and email your federal reps urging them to support Rep. Sensenbrenner's legislation eliminating the unnecessary and abusive government agency. 

Footnotes:

1. There are sincere, constitutionally-minded, patriotic Americans working within the ATF. However, the agency's overall history and culture is corruption, waste, and anti-constitutionality.

2. If federal and state gun laws had any public safety component Chicago would be the nation's safest city and Kennesaw, Georgia (recently named America's most gun-friendly city) the most dangerous. Gun laws only aid the state in prosecuting individuals caught violating those laws, but do nothing to protect citizens who will not or cannot arm themselves.

3. The ATF's sordid history is wrought with such 'heroics' as the Ruby Ridge murders, Waco Branch Dividian massacre, the deadly and highly illegal Fast and Furious gun running scheme, extra legal (non-legislated) bans on manufacturing and importation of various firearms and ammunition, plus numerous abusive arrests and prosecutions of American gun owners, collectors, and manufacturers. 

 

The State Will Not Protect You: Ft. Lauderdale Active Shooting Rampage

-Gun free zones and open borders are killing scores of innocent Americans. 

-The PC Left has more blood on its hands than ISIS. 


Ft. Lauderdale, FL - A very familiar scene unfolded at another gun free zone in Ft. Lauderdale on Friday.

A low IQ jihadist  import, void of human reason and rationality, shot several  forcibly disarmed Americans, murdered five, and created an apocalyptic scene inundated by hundreds of heavily-armed state and federal police helpless to do anything but gather survivors, count KIAs, and begin a lengthy and costly investigation pointlessly centered on 'shooter motive'. (1) 

Gun free zone active shootings in America, where the Supreme Law allows citizens to be armed anytime and anywhere, press the assertion that the state prefers these mass killings to continue. (2) A seeming absurdity on its face yet plausible considering the frequency and dependability of shootings in gun free zones that only result in continued mandates against armed Americans being responsible for our own protection.

The Ft. Lauderdale killer, like all jihadists and deranged active shooters, chose his location not based on tactical advantages, but because he knew victims would be disarmed by state and federal law that unabashedly violates the human and constitutional right of Americans to be armed when and wherever we choose.

The state, that shamelessly maintains gun free zones, is especially culpable in the Ft. Lauderdale shooting. 

Not only did the state previously have custody of the shooter, and the gun he used to kill five innocent people, it failed to adjudicate him mentally ill despite meeting every observable standard of an armed and dangerous paranoid schizophrenic professing, to the FBI, a compulsion to serve the world's largest terrorist organization. 

Imagine if, instead, the Ft. Lauderdale shooter was a white NRA member professing to be a Christian crusader of the Knight's Templar ordained by the trinitarian god to commit acts of violence against Muslims to 'save Western civilization'. (3)

In that circumstance he would have been disarmed, incarcerated, adjudicated, and forced into an indefinite, confinement-based treatment program for the dangerously mentally ill.

The only conclusion to the state continuing to deny Americans our human right to self defense from criminal deadly force, in gun free zones it imposes but does not secure, is that it views our lives far less important than its control over our lives.

1. The Ft. Lauderdale airport shooter hailed from Puerto Rico where the average IQ is 84, 1 point lower than the Average IQ of American Blacks (85), and 16 or more points lower than the average IQ of White (European) and Asian Americans.

IQ, again, is not a "racist" measure of human worth or value, but of intellect, effectiveness, human reason, and rationality, especially when comparing lower IQ populations functioning in societies with higher IQ populations. 

NBA teams, for example, not being populated by people of average height is not because pro basketball is “racist” against people of average height. It is because the abilities of short or average height people are an improbable match for talents needed to be a professional NBA player. No amount of affirmative action could ever change that reality. 

2. The Supreme Law, for the factually-impaired Marxist left, is the United States Constitution.

3. The only thing more dangerous than a deranged, low IQ, armed jihadists in a gun free zone is the Marxist, anti-Western civ., PC, mass immigration policies that allow them existence within the United States.  

Enhance Your Carry Loadout For Holiday Volatility

Preparing for an increase in crime and terrorism during Jewish and Christian holidays.

The holidays are here and bad guys are gearing up to take your stuff, and your life if you allow it. We know there is an increase in criminal activity during the holidays, but Obama's “Hope and Change” America has added societal stresses uncommon to times past.

Leftist acrimony toward state law enforcement, based on the artificial narrative of racism, has emboldened criminals and created a defensive pullback of once proactive policing. 

Intentional flooding of the US with criminal aliens and Muslims hateful of western society have placed more Americans in the cross hairs of opportunistic crime and Islamic attacks.

It's Too Cold For Your Subcompact.

Jacket and coat weather is a good time to change that Spring and Summer EDC for something more substantial, yet comfortable under layered winter clothing. A larger pistol offers improved sight radius, higher ammo capacity, and combat sustainability should a deadly encounter involve more than a knife-wielding meth junkie collecting "donations" at your local Walmart.

My personal cold weather ritual is to switch out both gun and ammo. Spring and Summer's subcompact takes a break for Fall and Winter's full size service pistol, which is easier to access under heavier clothing worn in and outside of retail outlets where “wolves” hunt unsuspecting holiday goers. 

Warm/Hot Weather Carry: Glock 30 w/ 31 Rounds 230gr JHP

Cool/Cold Weather Carry: Glock 17 w/ 54 Rounds 147gr JHP Standard Pressure

First Change Your Carry Ammo.

Unless a practitioner of OWB carry, concealed EDC ammo riding close to the human body is exposed to greater levels of humidity than, say, ammo carried externally on a law enforcement duty belt. In other words, six warm and hot months riding next to your sweaty mass of humanity is enough for those prized JHPs to be escorted to the range burn box.

While modern factory loaded ammunition better withstands tests of time, than its predecessors, loading your mags with new ammo, after six months of carry, ensures every round goes “bang” if needed in a life or death emergency.

Ammo Porn Has Replaced Gun Porn

Assuming you have the smarts to buy a Glock, Sig, or Smith, choosing the right carry pistol was easy. Choosing the “right” ammo, however, is another, far more subjective matter.

Ammunition choices have never been better and are seemingly endless. Between modern JHP, hard cast +P, and products like “Xtreme Penetrator” there is not much walking on two or four legs than cannot be taken down with a single stack 9mm. (See ALASKAN GUIDE, PHIL SHOEMAKER, USES 9MM OUTDOORSMAN ROUNDS IN A S&W 3954 TO STOP AN ATTACKING GRIZZLY)

While one can argue the merits of any reputable load, a wise rule of thumb for self-defense carry is filling your mags with ammo widely adopted by state and federal law enforcement agencies that also meet FBI standards for interior, external, and terminal ballistics. 

EDC Enough Legal Protection

In today's world carrying a gun is not about piece of mind. In addition to unaffordable healthcare and unabashedly corrupt government, the crime and terror legacy of the Obama Administration has increased the likelihood of armed citizens using deadly force to survive an assault or terrorist attack. 

In addition to ample training and weapons competency we need an automated legal plan of action that takes effect immediately after we are involved in a defensive use of deadly force.

Even brandishing your firearm to ward off an attack can invite criminal legal scrutiny, especially for armed citizens living in anti-gun regions of the country. 

Having comprehensive legal representation working on your behalf before police arrive on scene is essential to ensuring your rights are protected and freedom maintained after you pull the trigger. 

Situational Awareness Is Everything, Until The Shooting Starts.

Knowing what is going on around you is vital to not being caught off guard during a criminal encounter. Whether it is two or more men approaching from different directions or a panhandler distracting you while his accomplice moves in from behind, things out of place feel out of place for a reason.  

Human instinct is very adept at telling you when something is wrong. Listen to your "gut" this holiday season and decisively act to protect yourself and loved ones.  

Carry A Backup Gun?

$3 part shuts down $600 gun: broken slide lock spring (under the C) cuts short training with Gen 3 Glock 30. *

Interesting how many of us will bring two or more guns to a tactical weapons course, in case one breaks, keep loaded firearms strategically placed throughout our homes, top off every magazine we own, and have battle rattles for a moment’s notice (pay attention Hillary gun grabbers), yet carry one gun when armed in public where we are more likely to encounter criminal deadly force.

The Glock 30 pictured above has been a carry gun for thirteen years, running thousands of rounds without fail, until yesterday when its $3 slide lock spring broke on the 18^th round. A philosophical moment since, until then, I did not have a visceral attachment to  carrying a backup gun.

Guns break. That we know. Question for armed civilians and law enforcement carrying only one gun is, why do we plan for our guns to break at the range, during controlled training events, but not during life and death situations in public or on the job?
  

*$600 to $1000 generally gets you home with a quality pistol, meaning “Glock, Smith, or Sig”. After market modifications can run a few hundreds to thousands depending on shooter preferences.

Call To Action: Write A Check To The Gun Lobby Today. Sandy Hook Families' Lawsuit Against Remington Arms

In case there is doubt your natural human right to possess firearms of your choosing is under constant attack, by protectionist crazies believing you and your family are not entitled to self-defense from criminal deadly force, look no further than the recent “wrongful death” lawsuit struck down by Connecticut Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis.

The dismissed lawsuit was filed by select families of the 14 December 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in an effort to make gun manufacturers liable for deaths “caused” by the guns they produce. (1)

Despite being intellectually bankrupt and void of standing the filing was a not a legal exercise of pure futility, but one plaintiffs' council knew would fail due to a 2005 law protecting gun makers from liability when their firearms are used in crimes.

This case was not filed for the purpose of winning a huge punitive ruling or settlement against Remington Arms, but to establish precedent for suing gun manufacturers and eventually overturning the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act under, say, a Hillary administration, or altering it enough to open a window for legitimate suits against gun makers.

Are your NRA, GOA and other gun advocacy group dues paid up? Can you make a contribution today?

Although willing to fight in the streets of America for our natural right to keep and bear arms we prefer to battle the forces of disarmament in the courts and halls of congress. 

1. A psychotic in a gun free zone is solely responsible for the deaths of 20 children and 6 teachers at Sandy Hook on 14 December 2012, not an inanimate AR15. Military style rifles, such as the Bushmaster AR-15, are not made for the purpose of taking innocent life but protecting it, which is why this model of rifle is pervasive among law enforcement, legally armed Americans, and the United States military.

ATF Entrapment Scheme In Progress. Beware!

Update 10 Oct 2016: The above video and youtube account, under the name "davey jones," were deleted following our exposure of this attempted Obama administration ATF entrapment scheme which showed a masked man dropping a "key" into the lower receiver of a M-4 profile AR15, disconnecting the semi-automatic trigger sear, firing the gun full auto, then offering viewers "a chance" to send in $50 to receive their own "full auto key." 

Any self-respecting gun owner with a modicum of brain tissue knows legally owning a fully automatic pistol, SBR, rifle, or crew served weapon, outside of those ridiculous bump fire stocks, involves paper work, thousands of dollars, and a lot of special permission from government officials most of us would like to never meet. (Thanks idiots in congress. The NFA has really kept us safe!)1

Not so, according to the enclosed video. Simply send your address and receive information on how to get your very own drop in full auto key that 'will make any AR-15 fully automatic'.

The ATF agent in the balaclava fails to mention you will be facing 20 years in federal prison once his buddies, with your name and address, kick your door at 0300, shoot your dog and family then drag you to jail for anything but a speedy trial, bail denied.

One would think, with jihadis crawling all over the country planning American deaths by the millions, our corrupt third world  government would be out hunting real bad guys.

Instead its Executive Branch minions are trying to pump prisons full of otherwise unsuspecting, patriotic American gun owners for the purpose of convincing congress they need larger budgets to hunt down more unsuspecting, patriotic American gun owners.

Fast and Furious failed so try try again, right?

1. Sorry America but the guberment thinks you are just too stupid and dangerous to own guns that go pew pew pew pew, instead of pew, pew, pew, pew, despite many gun owners being issued the pew pew pew pew ones in the military. Why is that? 

The State Will Not Protect You: St. Cloud Minnesota Mall A Gun Free Zone

Somali derivative, Islamic activist, and gun free zone opportunist Dahir Aden slashed and stabbed ten shoppers for Allah at the Crossroads mall in St. Cloud, MN on Saturday. 

How is the great forced assimilation of irrational, low IQ Muslim immigrants into relatively free western society working out for New York, New Jersey, and Minnesota?(1) How about for residents of Munich, Paris, Nice, San Bernardino, and Orlando, FL?

In attempting to delay exposing the identities and religious affiliations of Saturday's Muslim attackers, in New York and Minnesota, the Obama/Clinton-fawning media and political establishment also failed to mention the Crossroads mall in St. Cloud, MN, where ten people were stabbed by a knife-wielding Muslim psycho from 68 average IQ Somalia, is a gun free zone “committed to providing an enjoyable shopping experience for our guests”.(2)

Enjoyable unless one of those "guests" is a knife-wielding, jihadi mass killer. In that case shoppers only hope is for the low-probability chance an armed "off duty police officer" is present to save them. 

 

Translation: "This sign is designed to get you killed assuming you are dumb enough to enter these premises unarmed."

1. Again, for those in the hypersensitive, blanket-biting, safe zone-seeking, social justice loser movement, higher or lower average IQ is not a measure of "worth" among human beings but a genealogical indicator of adaptability, effectiveness, and, most importantly in regards to crime and Islamic radicalism, rationality. 

 2. Lower IQ Muslim refugees and immigrants are not assimilating into Western society but remaining isolated in ethnic communities ambivalent and antagonistic toward Western values of freedom and individual discretion.
