"Don't just stand there!
Start shooting!" |
Over the last couple of days a series of stories have crossed my newsfeed that have, when taken together, raised my level of concern from, "Things are getting a bit sticky" to "Better start shooting!"
First, over at DOUBLEPLUSUNDEAD, alexthechick posted yesterday about the citizen resistance concerning gun control and confiscation in New York.
NEW YORK. Pause and let that sink in. New York. Neeeeeew York!
New York is supposed to be a "smart" state, like California or Illinois. You know, run by Democrats and filled with liberals. SMART-smart. They certainly aren't supposed to be the location of the beginning of the revolution.
"Bring it on!"
As Alex notes, this video is "chilling." Chilling because only 40 years ago this scene was unthinkable in America. Now it has happened and we have police officers and officials taunting the crowd of law-abiding citizens with, "Bring it on!"
Bring it on. Really? I think, perhaps, he should consider the wisdom of that challenge.
Then, hilariously, we have the Department of Homeland Security releasing a video instructing ADULTS in the fine art of cowering.
The highly instructional video is entitled, "Options for Consideration
Active Shooter Training Video." One will notice that shooting back is
not an option. Cowering, hiding, running away, begging for help from
911, leaving behind wounded victims, fearing for your life, peeing in
your pants, becoming hysterical (but quietly so the active shooter won't actively find you and actively shoot you), are all considered much
better options than being armed and just shooting the fucker dead. Oh, and if you HAVE to fight back, use scissors. Excellent advice. I've always known scissors were dangerous. Remember that warning about
running with them? I think I've made my point.
My sense is that DHS would very much like to convince us that cowering in fear is the appropriate response to ANY show of force...even theirs.
Especially theirs.
And the military...e-ven.
Citizens, it is coming down to a couple of options. Grab your guns and prepare for battle or run away. OH! I forgot. Grab your scissors is the third choice.
I always thought Monty Python was a farce, not a tactical choice of adult men and women.
But wait! There's more. If they can't make you frightened and defenseless in the face of open aggression and violent threats, maybe they will just kill you all civilized like.
Krazy Krugman gives away the game. (Bolding entirely mine.)
"And we’re also going to have to make decisions about health care, doc pay for health care that has no demonstrated medical benefits . So the snarky version…which I shouldn’t even say because it will get me in trouble is death panels and sales taxes is how we do this."
Why, hello, kittens. What have we here? The compassion of liberals married to the pragmatic use of force - which is all the state really is and so force is all it's capable of using to fix a problem. And as the esteemed and
really, really smart Mr. Krugman admits, "Eventually we do have a problem."
Really? That's not good because when states have "problems" -- big problems -- people end up dead. Every time. Always.
Or course they intend to tax you into poverty, then kill you. Nice. Mustn't "off" anyone who is still useful to the state.
The smart, kind,
caring people believe we have too many of
you and not enough money for
them, so please go quietly or be shot. You get to choose. Well, damnit! I'm not going and I have SCISSORS! Get
BACK!!!
The last story would be funny if it weren't becoming so nauseatingly familiar. The liberal elite are threatening us with their attack dogs. DHS and the military aren't enough. No, they are revving up the teachers. Yes, indeed. Mrs. Brown and Mr. Miller. You're kindergarten teacher. You're biology teacher. Just make anyone beholden to the Great God of Government for a couple of decades (in this case via the Department of Education and the NEA) and you create foaming-at-the-mouth greed and insanity. The trick is keeping the crazed teachers under control when they keep attending rallies where leaders are
saying this kind of nonsense:

Lethal working conditions apparently
don't include loss of lunchroom privileges. |
"The labor leaders of that time, though, were ready to kill. They were. They were just - off with their heads. They were seriously talking about that."
The comment drew laughs and some scattered applause before Lewis added, "I don't think we're at that point. The key is that they think nothing of killing us. They think nothing about putting us in harm's way. They think nothing about lethal working conditions."
Killing teachers. Callously. Routinely, it would seem. Lethal working conditions. Uh-hmmm....Lethal. Working. Conditions. One can only assume that she is talking about schools. Schools where our own children spend most of their days from age 6 to 18. Schools with
lethal working conditions. I missed the news broadcasts where the little darlings and their desperately noble teachers were being taken out on gurneys virtually every day as we ruthlessly allowed them to DIE. What kind of people
are we??? MY GOD! We deserve to die. Here's my scissors. I'll go quietly.
