Posted this response under the “5 year old bubble gun terrorist”. It’s a better fit under “What a Mess”
Despite what opinion one may have of infowars.com, this story is….well…at the very least interesting….and not in a good way. I clicked on the link of the company cited in this article, result: “Server is too busy”. Seems this story has legs.
“A provider of “realistic” shooting targets to the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies has created a line of “non-traditional threat” targets that include pregnant women, mothers in playgrounds and elderly American gun owners.”
“Law Enforcement Targets, Inc. is a 21-year designer and full service provider of training targets for the DHS, the Justice Department and thousands of law enforcement agencies throughout the country.”

CHAMBERING THE NEXT “SHOT HEARD ‘ROUND THE WORLD”
“The Department of Homeland Security has purchased over 1.2 billion rounds of ammunition, more than 8,000 rounds per employee, and recently sent out an RFP for 7,000 short-barreled 5.56 selective-fire assault rifles typically only useful for diplomatic protection and close-quarters combat.
When you look at the groundwork being laid by Barack Obama’s White House, the Department of Justice, and the Department of Homeland Security, it appears to any student of history that they are arming and reinforcing themselves to impose their will upon the nation much as the British garrison in Boston swelled to put down those “damned rebels.”
“If you have an ear for history, you can hear the drumbeats sounding as they did in the early 1770s or the late 1850s. A war is coming, whether we like it or not.
Search your soul. Choose your side. Prepare your ground. Do not fire unless fired upon, but if they mean war…
Tread carefully.”

Look to the state for your safety!
It is obvious that the constitution has placed serious limitations on the government’s ability to keep you and your children safe. Besides a total ban and confiscation of all privately owned firearms, the state needs the ability of conducting warrant-less searches and indefinite detainment of those who would hide weapons and endanger the kollektive.Throughout history, police states have a proven track record of keeping the law abiding safe by eliminating troublemakers. You all trust the state to provide a government program to solve our problems, now is the time to trust completely and let Dear Leader Comrade President take on the role of father and take care of his children.

Bill of Rights Limited to 18th Century: Chicago Police Chief
The head of the Chicagograd Regional Police Battalion, Comrade Chief Garry McCarthy, has declared that the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution only applied to the 18th century, and that all matters of civil rights hinge on workers’ and peasants’ need for safety guaranteed by State security apparatuses.
Therefore, all attempts to use the US Constitution to oppose security operations by State Law Enforcement organs are a danger to the public and will be suppressed.
Comrade McCarthy, known for his heroic service which has led to Chicagograd having the reputation as one of the safest cities in the USSA, is an expert in constitutional interpretation. In recent remarks on a local broadcast from the American Media Collective, the Chief explained that the Constitution was only intended to cover the current issues of 18th century America, making is a reactionary and decadent document.
In our Progressive era, where all citizens are equal and endowed by their membership in the Proletariat with the unalienable rights to complete protection and the provision of all their needs by the State, the Constitution now represents a threat to public safety when it is evoked as limiting the proper mandatory services of the State for the protection and care of the Masses.
The often misunderstood Second Amendment was, according to the Chief, only intended for sport-hunting muskets in the 18th century, and therefore all weapons ownership is unlawful due to the natural dangers of gun ownership. Comrade McCarthy has often advocated that citizens surrender their firearms and enjoy the true protection and security that Chicago police are known for providing their citizens.
And, since hunting will soon be banned throughout the USSA, loyal citizens may begin pre-seizure surrendering of all muzzle-loading weapons along with whatever weapons one has not already turned over under the Party’s Universal Pacification and Disarmament Plan. This will save you a visit by the local People’s Militia to collect your weapons from you, which also requires a full search of the premises.
Down with bourgeois ‘rights’!
Up with the Right to Security Through Universal Disarmament!

Here’s another winner Lipoh. Hillary helps get three U.S. citizens and a diplomat killed in Libya, and instead of going to jail, she now gets $290,000 per speech on the “dried up lesbo skank” speaking tour. WTF?
Hillary Clinton joins NYC-based speaker agency
Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will give paid speeches now that she’s left the government.
The Manhattan-based Harry Walker Agency says on its website that Clinton has joined it exclusively for her future speaking engagements.
It is not uncommon for prominent former public figures to join the lucrative speech circuit after leaving office. According to Senate disclosure forms Hillary Clinton filed in 2008, Bill Clinton has been paid as much as $290,000 per speech.

More bad news.
“The Cranston mother of a child with dwarfism has compelled Cains to stop calling a variety of pickles it sells ‘midgets’ after a campaign that included a YouTube video and her blog. Chelly Martinka is the mom of a 10-month old little person and said she was “shocked, appalled and hurt” when she saw a jar of pickles labeled “Kosher Dill Midgets” at a local Stop and Shop. Her daughter, Adelaide Eileen Martinka was diagnosed with Achrondoplastia when she was nine-and-a-half weeks old. One in 40,000 births is of a child with dwarfism. “I know that as times change it is hard for a company to keep up,” Martinka said. “But for the equality of all children I hope you consider renaming this product for 2013″
Hey, your kid is short. I get it. Ms Freud is short. You know what I call her sometimes? Midget!!! That’s what short people are. Grow some balls. I’m tall. Nicknames I’ve had; Lurch, Stretch, Green Giant, Gigantor, Asshole. Do I get pissed off? No. Am I trying to get Cains Giant Pickles off the market? No. But now I can’t have my favorite pickle cuz you’re a hyper-sensitive bitch with a Midget offspring. Fuck you.

Stuck comes up with more crazy shit than me. Midget pickles. Political correctness will be the death of us all.
So will Obamacare,
Dept of Compulsory Health Outlaws Pre-existing Conditions
The Commissar for Healthcare Enforcement of the Department of Compulsory Health and Mandatory Human Services has announced that, because of the Party’s successful implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan is no longer seeking new applicants.
At this time, the Commissar has determined that all citizens are now sufficiently covered by State-approved medical services, and there are no more citizens in need.
Citizens are now instructed to have no further medical conditions that require government assistance, and the acquisition of new ‘pre-existing conditions’ is now forbidden.
Since all citizens are now covered by some type of government-mandated program, there are no longer any ‘pre-existing’ conditions that would disqualify a citizen from coverage.
Workers and peasants of the USSA retain the right to present themselves at any hospital emergency room for immediate treatment, and by law they cannot be refused. This, of course, was law before the new law, but the new law also redistributes the costs of medical coverage through a more elaborated system subject to more government scrutiny, which is expected to improve the quality of healthcare treatment.
As we all know, government oversight improves efficiency and decreases costs. By providing more documentation of services and double-checking the necessity and appropriateness of procedures, the State assures all citizens of equal treatment. No longer will one citizen receive favorable or better service, but all will partake of exactly the same, fair level of treatment.
Citizens, we have seen the Bourgeoisie and Kulaks use their money to purchase better medical treatment than the workers and peasants of the USSA. Comrade Party Chairman and President Barack Barackovich Obama is leading America to a future in which money will no longer buy you better things than what your neighbor has. Yes, we are called to a bright future of complete equality, where money and favoritism will be utterly displaced by the joys of equality!
The Commissar for Healthcare Enforcement will soon begin compulsory collectivization of those citizens who refuse to pay their fair share of the healthcare program. Kulaks will be paying penalties for their excessive hoarding through their refusals to pay into the State-mandated insurance collectives. Please assist the Commissar by denouncing uninsured citizens.
Onward to Victory over the Uninsured!
All loyal citizens participate in medical insurance!
