QOTD: "Almost as quickly as the Islamic State’s branch in Yemen claimed responsibility for suicide attacks at mosques attended by Houthis in Sana’a earlier today, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) denied any connection to the coordinated bombings. There is a simple reason why: Such attacks are inconsistent with al Qaeda’s guidelines for waging jihad.
In its statement denying any ties to the bombings, AQAP stressed that it remains “committed to the guidelines” issued by Sheikh Ayman al Zawahiri. Those guidelines advise against “targeting mosques, markets, and public places out of concern for the lives of innocent Muslims, and to prioritize the paramount interests,” AQAP’s message reads..." --Thomas dJoscelyn

ReplyDeleteIntergalactic Background Checks: Why are the Gun Grabbers making a last desperate stand on this issue?
ReplyDeleteWho can forget the heady days of Jan 2013? Obama had just ‘won’ his second term – and all it took was for the GOPe contender to roll over and not criticize him because that would be RACIST!!…But I digress…
The country had just experienced the worst gun-free zone shooting. And the nation’s gun grabbing socialist left was salivating at the prospect of tearing the guts out of the people’s common sense Civil right of armed self defense.. they merely had to come up with the best nefarious method on how they would do it…
The world was their assault weapon oyster, the forces defending Liberty were cowering in the corner like people under the protection of a gun free zone waiting to be shot.
We on the Pro-Liberty side were awaiting the worst when a funny thing happened.. people began realizing that the 2nd amendment is Freedom’s fire wall. The people realized that down through history the pattern has always been the same: Incremental degradations of the basic civil rights beginning with restrictions, then registration then Confiscation then annihilation.
People who didn’t normally involve themselves with Pro-Liberty self defense rights became aware of the imminent danger. People began asking why 120 Million Innocent gun owners should be punished for the deranged actions of a handful of (Leftist) Lunatics. People started buying guns and standing up for our civil rights. They loudly pointing out that in the error of Obama, guns have been flying of the shelf and crime has gone DOWN!
This didn’t square with the bleating of the national gun grabbing socialist left with their more guns, more death mantra…
And as they say cooler heads prevailed…. At least on the Pro-Liberty, Pro second amendment side… not so much with the national Socialist Gun grabbing Left….
They aren’t accepting their defeats with and aplomb or dignity, they continue to forge on trying slightly different tactics to evince the same outcome. They long ago dropped the attacks on certain types of undefined weapons in a divide and conquer motif – for the people realized that those evil black rifles…
I’ll refrain from posting an image of said “Assault Weapons” with them being so scary to the Anti-Liberty ‘Liberals’ out there…. Not to mention the rumor that even their images can shoot deadly bullets at a ‘clip’ of a thousand cartridges a second!
At this point the gun grabbers are desperately trying to follow the second part of Sun Tzu’s maxim: “Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.”
We can look back and easily see the intentions of the nation’s gun grabbing socialists on the anti-liberty Left. The kitchen sink approach no longer holds sway, and now they are down to what they REALLY want. They have stripped away all the ‘lower’ gun grabbing ideas leaving the depleted uranium core of what they think will be the incremental death knell for the 2nd amendment.
There is one thing you have to always connect with the term ‘Background Check’ and that is the word CONTROL.
However innocuous the rationale for IBC’s it all boils down to the issue of CONTROL.
Keep in mind that the true purpose for the founding documents and the Constitution itself is to RESTRAIN governmental power, and thus it would make no sense for the government to have control over it’s limitations – but that is exactly what is in store with IBC’s
