A “Twist” in MD…

Posted on by September 11, 2013

Got this from a friend who is involved in the whole MD shall issue fight…

And this is exactly the reason why the state should have no right to decide how you protect yourself. 

The “State” deemed the criminal Abbott to now be OK, and maintains  Woollard isn’t responsible enough to carry a firearm. How much more wrong can you get it. 

For those who dont know, Ray Woollard was the guy who sued MD over their “may issue” CCW permit law.  Woollard initially obtained a handgun carry permit after he was assaulted by an intruder in his home in 2002. The permit was renewed in 2005. At that time, the intruder had recently been released from prison, providing a “good and substantial reason” for Woollard to carry a firearm. In 2009, Woollard again sought to renew his permit so that he could carry a handgun for self defense. MSP Secretary Sheridan denied Woollard’s application, however, because Woollard failed to provide sufficient evidence “to support apprehended fear.”

Fast forward to last night:

Ray Woollard’s Attacker Dangerous Until the End

Last night, roads in my neighborhood were closed and the police helicopter was searching the corn fields. A man beat his parents (who are in their 70’s) and then barricaded himself in the house. The parents and his estranged wife were able to escape to a neighbor. The mother was flown to Shock Trauma with serious injuries. The assailant eventually committed suicide. 

The man was Kris Abbott who broke into Ray Woollard’s home years ago and was the G&S reason Mr. Woollard got a CC permit. It’s a good thing the state deemed Mr. Abbott was no longer a threat and therefore would not renew Mr. Woollard’s permit.

Kinda makes me wonder how many MORE dead bodies the O’Malley administration needs to convince them…

Colorado did it!!!

Well, Bloomie spent $300k to bail out the two sleazy Colorado state legislators, but for naught!!!

G.O.N.E…

According to unofficial results, voters in Colorado Springs favored recalling state Sen. John Morse, the body’s president, by 51 percent to 49 percent. With 100 percent of precincts reporting, state Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo was defeated in her recall election, 56 percent to 44 percent.   

/snip/

“We as the Democratic party will continue to fight,” Morse told supporters in Colorado Springs as he conceded the race. Republican Bernie Herpin, a former Colorado Springs city councilman, will replace him. Giron will be replaced by Republican George Rivera, a former deputy police chief in Pueblo.

“We will win in the end because we are on the right side,” Giron said in her concession speech. 

Ummm, don’t think so Giron, those ‘peons’ you ignored told you where to go!  Goodbye!!!

Putin makes a lot of sense…

Posted on by September 4, 2013

This is one time our elected leaders should pay attention to the advice of Vladimir Putin….

how scary is that?

On February 4th, 2013, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressed the Duma, (Russian Parliament), and gave a speech about the tensions with minorities in Russia:

“In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws.  If they prefer Sharia Law, then we advise them to go to those places where that’s the state law.  Russia does not need minorities.  Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell ‘discrimination’.  We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation.  The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of most minorities.  When this honorable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the national interest first, observing that the minorities are not Russians.

The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a five minute standing ovation.

If you keep this to yourself, you are part of the problem!

It is a sad day when a Communist* makes more sense than our President, but here it is!!!!

* You mean another Communist

Isn’t THIS just special…

From the WAPO fishwrap…

The Obama administration secretly won permission from a surveillance court in 2011 to reverse restrictions on the National Security Agency’s use of intercepted phone calls and e-mails, permitting the agency to search deliberately for Americans’ communications in its massive databases, according to interviews with government officials and recently declassified material.

In addition, the court extended the length of time that the NSA is allowed to retain intercepted U.S. communications from five years to six years — and more under special circumstances, according to the documents, which include a recently released 2011 opinion by U.S. District Judge John D. Bates, then chief judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.

So what ‘conspiracies’ were they looking for???  ‘Domestic terrorists’ like us maybe???

Tactics 101…

Posted on by September 7, 2013

This whole cluster f**k over Syria is just beyond the pale for the ultimate stupidity being exhibited by the administration…

First- You NEVER tell the opponent what you’re going to do. So far, this bunch has laid out at least four plans down to everything except the actual launch time.

Second- You DO the mission FIRST then talk about it… Not a YEAR after you knew what was being done.

Third- When you tell the opponent, you’ve given up the surprise; so they are going to MOVE your targets. Usually into civilian areas, Mosques, etc.  And they’ll run civilians into the bases to guarantee collateral damage…

Fourth- You’ve gutted the Navy to the point we have ships and airplanes tied to the pier/grounded, and now you’re extending an entire CSG at sea for how long??? The baseline cost is $25M per week with minimal flying, heavy flying is $40M a week. Who is paying for it?  The Navy, so more cuts are being required.

Fifth- Selling it ain’t working, not to the allies OR the American People. Your dithering is NOT helping the world opinion of America, unless it’s to go in a negative (or MORE negative) direction…

Sixth- You’ve been bowing and scraping to the rest of the world, and Putin knows it.  And they are moving ships into the Med to ‘counter’ the American presence…

And Putin remembers THIS incident- He was KGB at the time…

I have no doubt he’d tell his ships to do this again- Do you really think the US will risk this?  Either with a BMD capable ship OR with a sub?  I know what ‘my’ answer is.

In summary, they pretty much can’t screw this up any further than they already have… Unless BO does something else stupid, like committing troops (again)…

Will we even HAVE a country left in 2017? I’m beginning to wonder!!!

Gah….

Cops in D.C. Are Under Orders to Arrest Tourists with Empty Bullet Casings

The gun control crazies in Washington D.C. are really cracking down on tourists.  Not terrorists, but tourists.  According to the Washington Examiner the police in Washington are under new orders to arrest any tourists or out-of-towners who are in possession of spent bullet or shotgun casings.
Apparently even spent bullet casings are considered ammunition and carry a $1,000 fine, a year in jail, and a criminal record.  These casing are illegal to possess in the district unless you are a resident of D.C. and have a gun registration certificate (which takes a TON of red tape to get).
The Examiner says that a tourists could easily unknowingly get in trouble with the law after a routine traffic stop.
This is beginning to sound like Australia… So if you go to the range and get ONE spent .22 case stuck in your waffle shoes and bring it back to the car… Really???

The Perfect Home for Liberals…
