Some people don’t like guns – much as they rely on them for protection. Hillary Clinton, for instance. Her objection to guns is that you might have one. Not that the men who form a protective echelon around herself have them.
Other people do not like cars in the same way and wish to restrict their use on the same basis. They are urging cars be “banned from every city in the U.S.” in order to “stop vehicular terrorism overnight.”

One assumes they will make an exception for the cars – and trucks – which bring them their food and other such things.
These exceptions will be automated – of course. (Which brings up something interesting; more in a minute.)
Vehicles – like guns – still being not merely necessary but essential. The problem is – how to get them out of the hands of the hoi polloi, the sans culottes?
That is to say, out of our hands?
They haven’t had much success with guns. On this one issue, there has been both general skepticism of the arguments presented as well as active pushback. On every other issue – the right to be free from unreasonable searches, for instance; or the idea that punishment ought to come only after the formality of conviction – most people have been cowishly deferential. But an irascible majority still “cling” to their guns. They do not believe they would be “safer” without them in the face of criminals (this includes those in government costumes) still in possession of them and actually bare their fangs when it is suggested they be disarmed while criminals – all kinds – remain very much armed.
The moment for general confiscation probably came – and went – back in the ‘90s, at the height of the “militia” scare – at which point most people probably feared these “militias” more than they feared the government and when there wasn’t yet an Internet and a way to end-run the three major media organs. A false consensus could have been confected; laws hurriedly passed – as happened in Australia, for instance.
Once done, almost impossible to undo.
Obamacare, for example.
The missed moment on the “gun control” issue must be profoundly irritating to them – “them” including Republicans as well as Democrats, since they all belong to the same club and we are not members. (My conservative friends will find this observation irritating, no doubt. But they forget that it was Ronald Reagan who “controlled” guns in California – just as it was Republicans like John McCain who cast Obamacare in stone.)
Well, they may have learned a lesson. And are currently in the midst of applying it.
Carpe diem. Seize the moment.
It is interesting that at the very moment automated cars are being pushed on us with the aggressiveness of the most relentless used car salesman, non-automated cars (the cars we control) are all of a sudden being used in ways that seem calculated to engender the same fear of them that they had hoped to instill in us with regard to firearms via the misuse of firearms by a few random freaks.
Is it coincidental? If so,it is very convenient.
From the article linked to above:
“(J)ust like the plague of mass shootings is a gun problem, the thousands of people killed by cars as they walk on our streets every year is a car problem.”
Italics added.
The solution, of course, is automated cars. That is to say, cars not controlled by us.
The object of the exercise, then, is not to ban cars per se – just as the object of “gun control” is not the banning of guns.
It is, simply, to take them both out of our control.
Just as Hillary (and Dianne and all the rest of them) are not about to give up their guns, neither will they be giving up their cars. The Dear Leader will not be riding in an automated Uber.
Remember your Orwell and what he wrote about some animals being more equal than others.
The obviousness of this ought to be luminous – like the headlight of a freight train a quarter-mile away and approaching rapidly.
It’s time to get off the tracks – and keep our fingers crossed that the damned thing will derail itself and end up in the ditch.
Back in the days when we had Public Health emergencies healthy people were not quarantined but sick ones or those who had contact with them were. This made sense. It still does.
If some bearded lout from Uzbekistan shows up at JFK why not just put him back on the airplane and send him back? No one here will miss him. Same with Pakistan, Afganistan or any other ‘stan’. As the song went ‘Gotta long without you before I met you, gonna get a long without you now’!
Proof positive that you can’t fix stupid.
And yet tobacco products kill 300,000+ per year. Where’s the government outrage? Why don’t they ban tobacco products?
The driver-less cars forced upon the population will be the ultimate assassination technology… or make-you-disappear technology. Make sure you carry a spring loaded center punch… or a tool to rip out an under-dash wire harness.
Just make damn sure you know how to disable such a vehicle in seconds- from the inside.
BLM, Muslims, Multiculturalism, and gun owners: A Discriminating view.
By xxBONESxx
Today the words racism, discrimination, and hate are so often used and misused they are losing their value and potency; especially by the Alt Left. The Left have used guilt, invented guilt, and supposed guilt for the last 75 years against normal, decent hard working, God fearing people in a very tightly controlled media narrative. A media we now absolutely know is controlled by the government. It is so open the govt recently passed a law saying it is acceptable to lie, cheat, steal, control, infiltrate and pretty much do anything to control the narrative or mind think. In a world with controlled narratives that Black Lives can Matter but if you even ask if White Lives do too you are labeled a racist. In a world where Blacks make up a supposed 13% of the populace but commit over 58% of all crimes nationally, and 51% of all murders as well as an epidemic of black on black crime, with black on white crimes rising by double the last 10 years under a black president no less. Let’s not forget the narrative of economic symmetry as a goal, with a culture of calling their own successful “Uncle Tom”. Blacks are 13% of the populace we are told, but many question is the real number 36%? The government needs Blacks to continue to be a minority although they average 512% more kids than whites and have been doing so for 3 generations. It’s called babies to welfare to prosperity. The men love it because they can get sexed up. The women love it because they get more welfare. It is a vicious cycle and a narrative controlled by the Democratic Alt Left to use these benefits as a voting steering wheel and cattle prod to control and increase their voting power. Take a look at a recent (last 25 years) newest narrative. The democrats and the likes of Jesse Jacksons Rainbow Coalition strong armed and invented guilt with a few white snowflakes and had Affirmative Action passed. A law in itself that is completely racist as it fully disadvantages one person based on race while providing advantages for another based on race. Yet, even mentioning this truth puts you in the racist corner or Uncle Tom corner. There is more and more growing evidence in society today that Blacks are more racist to Whites and are even calling for their genocide. Whites cannot even commingle or form groups without being labeled racists. Can you imagine a NAAACP? National Association Advancement Advocate Caucasian Peoples! What’s! You want to provide benefits and help to WHITES? That’s racist! You want whites to have their own group that can exclude blacks, females, shemales, gays, lesbians, trans, homo, and others! Why don’t you know, everyone else of color can have their own organization based on race or religion and discriminate by not allowing others to join, but you Whites cannot. This invented white guilt has many white millennials now self hating and doing things they never would do based on their upbringing. Things like marching in the street or on college campuses and hurting people and destroying cars etc. The govt has done a good job of helping people think and act the way the govt wants them too. They have mastered this. They needed to get the white females to vote like blacks. But how do you take from under the noses of plaid pants wearing, country club golf darting, Mercedes driving, church going, Republican parents, their own daughter and turn her into a black male loving, liberal thinking, college dropout with 4 mixed race kids, that lives on welfare and now votes Democrat? Easy. Tell her daily in class, on tv with commercials by putting blacks on a power role, in what she reads, in her targeted Facebook and google ads pics of white girls just like her with black men, and if she doesn’t understand this narrative she will be ousted and called a racist. Most white girls in a survey said they were asked out on a date by black men and these men used their race in that effort. (What! You won’t go to dinner with me cause I’m black!). They used fear of racism to go on dates and in many cases have sex. Can you imagine a white guy telling a white girl you won’t date me cause I’m white! You may not have to wait long as that day has arrived. The newest narrative is you are racist if you date white men! Lastly, if she doesn’t stand up and violently oppose other whites and even her family and parents, she is racist. BLM have all the markings of government involvement and invention. BLM was created and advertised during this countries first black presidency and was allowed to matriculate from a real concern into a racist terrorist cult. Thanks Obama! The government continues to say no problem with black crime or killings here. Keep moving.
Muslims. Again a government made up narrative that has all the same markings and fingerprint of government made up narratives assisted by fascist corporations and a CIA controlled media. Hell, even Barbie dolls now come with transgendered and Muslim burka wearing dolls. The ironic part is Barbie is supposed to resemble female empowerment and encourage little girls to be strong and independent in such a male white racist sexist world. I guess they completely forgot the burka’s role in subordination…..you see if the government could it would call male Middle East Muslims whites but then they wouldn’t be able to call Middle East Muslims a minority too. You see they will never allow whites to be deemed a minority even if the white populace goes down to 1%. They now call every European descendant born in America white but funny how they call people from France French, Spain Spanish. But step foot on USA soil you magically become white. Even though in the 1970’s my own Italian American family were heavily discriminated against. See the government wanted those immigrants from Europe to identify as being white so when they came through with their long game plan of BLM 30 years later these European descendants have been called and claimed to be white their entire lives. They would identify as white. They look white. Next up, Mexicans. They will embrace being considered white. But for now they are protected and being used. However they are nearly becoming a majority so again the government went back to blacks. Muslims from the Middle East look similar to Mexicans. They cannot call Mexicans white, yet. Like they did Italians. They need them still. Muslims everywhere never call out the radical Muslim terrorist when terror happens. It is exactly as it was in the 1960’s when whites heard about a black lynching, they shrug their shoulders and go about their day. Some were happy someone else was taking care of the problem, some thought it wasn’t their concern. The Islam religion itself calls for the murdering of infidels. Muslim terror proliferation under Obama was unprecedented. He grew up in a Muslim country and practiced that faith but everyone refused to call him Muslim. So, what does it take to be Muslim if growing up in a Muslim country and practicing its faith doesn’t? Muslim terror has an astounding compounded rate when compared to all other religions combined. A rate of over 1,909% more deaths due to Muslim faith vs all other religions combined! But Obama never once called it radical Muslim terrorism but rather workplace violence. The media were complicit. The fascist corporations still busing in Muslim employees by the thousands. The government says no problem here with a religion hell bent on killing us all. No problem, keep on moving.
Multiculturalism is all about embracing other cultures, except the white culture. It is a government narrative to destroy whites. Because whites embrace America, follow laws, work and pass down values just like other races and cultures do. . But mostly whites vote Republican. Destroy them by creating a narrative and whites all become Michael Jackson and live in their own hate of their skin color.
Our government has done a great job playing the long game. Create a narrative of social acceptance of others by promoting travel. Force media to show diversity and minorities in strong roles or positions. Create laws that are racist and discriminating but allow nobody to describe them as such. Create narratives white is bad black is good. Patriotism bad, multiculturalism good. Christians bad radical Islam good. Now the playing field is set and the game is about to start. The govt controls the media, major life sustaining products by few corporations and the narrative. The govt controls the handful of corporations that matter. 4 travel airlines, 6 major nation grocery chains, 4 auto makers, 5 internet CIA controlled (AT&T, google, Facebook, twitter, YouTube), 6 national farms controlled and regulated into fear. The govt controls your transportation, your food, media, social interactions. They targets ads to you in Facebook, google and YouTube to create the narrative in your mind. They change your mind. You are sheep living in a world of free choice. Choices that have been provided for you so no matter what you choose they are ok within that range of choices presented. The government had a keen opportunity with Obama to eradicate racism. Whites were nearly over racism entirely. The govt knew it and needed further distraction and devision. The govts biggest fear is citizens all getting along. Keep them divided and angry with each other for they might figure out who the real enemy is.
And to my point: the long game has been played and starting. It is ok for blacks, Muslims, terrorist to kill and maim. They are the minority and must be protected while their killing sprees covered up. The govt is just waiting for white gun owners to get sick and tired and do what these minorities do so they can usher in a gun free world. Why! Because whites are bad. Armed whites are worse. The problem is this. The narrative is just that. A narrative. White gun crime is 17% but whites are supposedly the majority at 58%. White gun ownership is in the tens of millions yet white on white gun crime is less than 2%. White legal gun crime is less than .0028%. Even if you take out race completely the numbers are minuscule for gun crime or gun deaths when compared to all crime and crime deaths. Gun deaths even lower. Cars kill people at a rate of 3,000% more daily than guns! Then going into legal vs illegal gun crime the numbers of legally owned guns committing crimes is barely detectable. Yet, daily you see government officials calling for gun confiscation and bans from legal gun owners. Imagine if every store owner that got robbed went to jail but the thief was of no concern? Is it not the same to take away legal guns from law abiding citizens when criminals use illegal guns? Why won’t the govt tell us the crime statistics of citizenship when quoting gun crimes. Why won’t the govt provide statistics of status of gun being legal or not? Why does the govt categorize it as a gun crime if a a person is arrested for a basic misdemeanor but also had a gun in their car, unused! They lump Americans and illegals in gun crimes committed together. Anyone else see a problem with this! We are currently in a fight over legal and illegal immigration. A fight put on by our own treasonous politicians advocating for these illegals!! Imagine if an American thief goes to Mexico armed then robs stores. Then the Mexican govt opens its borders welcomes Americans with welfare and declare all Mexicans must give up their guns! You think that’s a calling card for American Gun Toting Thieves to drive south to Mexico. No shit, so do I.
Will it take these same criminal, anti constitutional politicians coming into your living rooms telling you what to watch, into your kitchens telling what to eat (gmo), coming into your little girls room telling her who to date and how to vote, coming into your garage and telling you what to drive to get you sheep off your asses and call it out for what it is? A government hell bent on moving into fascist dictatorship by banning all guns. If you think the social aspects get better, or society safer with no guns, remember the 50 years of racist narrative put forth and you turn America inside out where racism and vengeance killing happen hourly. But this time whites will be hung in the trees. They want this to then start the narrative, “imagine if they all had guns! Everyone would be killing everyone!” But history shows in the literal Wild West when there were no laws and everyone had guns it was a very civil place. Because everyone knew everyone was packing heat. The govt is one big narrative The govt will continue to empower corps and media to control us and our mind think until you wake up and see it and quit being played. They are working on the Patriot issue now in an attempt to take out whites along with the Constitution. These people are looking to destroy America and the freedom she provides. For if you are a patriot, like those whites, you must be racist. I think they know they are in a championship game where winner takes all and loser dies. But the sheeple, standing in the middle of the field in a lit stadium with jeering crowds thinks they are popular and are being honored, and given attention. They haven’t a clue they are about to be slaughtered. The govt plays the long game. It thinks in centuries whereas we sheeple live pay check to check. They know this. They dominate you.
Funny how Londons mayor and Hitlery Clinton quote “it is part and parcel for people in large cities to expect terrorism by multiculturalism” but is it not part and parcel for 37,000 deaths annually by guns when there are 300 million guns out there. Let us not forget, of the 37,000 supposed gun deaths the govt completely lies in cases where there was a gun present but not used and the victim died of a beating or knife wound. It is logged as a gun death!! This is a fact. The govt also does not separate good guys killing bad guys with guns. Gun deaths are guns death within their false narrative! Let us not forget how many legal law abiding citizens are using guns; they aren’t using them for crime but for protection. But the govt wants to take away that protection and punish these law abiding citizens for owning guns while the criminals (many illegal aliens!) continue to run around free with a rap sheet 8 feet long! If you ignore this then you are complicit in your own genocide by govt.
Actually, the Mayor of London said:
“Part and parcel of living in a great global city is you’ve got to be prepared for these things, you’ve got to be vigilant, you’ve got to support the police doing an incredibly hard job. We must never accept terrorists being successful, we must never accept that terrorists can destroy our life or destroy the way we lead our lives.”

I’m no fan of Hillary, but I don’t recall her advocating gun confiscation.
And remember this, those most outspoken about defending your gun rights will ultimately be the ones who order confiscation (the Kochs, Trumps, & Romneys of this county have no interest in an armed working-class).
