The Dorr Brothers

They are online with a group chat about how the Democrats will sacrifice being in power and lose a majority a time or too to advance their agenda, ideologically driven get victories for their cause.

Advancing the cause is more important than going moderate and just staying in power. They are relentless, united and moving with one voice to gain their ultimate goal: destroying America, ending gun ownership and implementing their Marxist dictatorship.

Republicans, by comparison, are weak, vacillating RINOesque and capitulating, just seeking to keep power, not united, not fighting for liberty, free enterprise, America and the Constitution, even if they lose power occasionally, never committed to advancing ultimate goals.

Trump Veto Threat

Trump in 2020 and pray that he does veto the HR 8--so that Universal Gun Owner Registration dies if it ever would get passed in the Senate.

May You

May you have a peaceful heart.

The Greatest Evil

The wise Prager forewarns us that the greatest evil ocurs after we tell people they are victims, that society is rotten, and that they are entitled to or at least excused  for doing criminal activity as an act of revenge upon society. In effect, society deserves to be victimized, and his example is how blacks have very high crime rates, because society has educated them that they are victims.

None are exempt from making something of his life, and being responsible and accountable for his actions.

Adjusting

In life we activists do what we can to ameliorate situations that come upon us, and we have an agenda that we drive each day to fruition, as best we can. This is laudable and effective.

Still, our greatest power as people may be our reaction to what happens to us. That is key to our being successful or unsuccessful, happy or unhappy.

Refusing Victimhood

Refuse to be a victim. Be a doer and champion of living and excelling, instead.

Remain Curious

If you have concluded that there is nothing new or nothing worthy under the sun to discover or study, you have been revealed as an intellect of pinched wonder and scant curiosity.

The world is a miracle in the making. Go have fun and learn about what is taking place right before your eyes.

The Antithesis

Every word, person, movement or idea is contrasted by its opposite number. To recognize which is the better, superior and more beautiful is not easy to discover, but you can approximate this conclusion and absorb the best attributes of both thesis and antithesis.

Pretty Good

America is a pretty good place to live. It is not perfect, and no should we expect perfection. Idealists on the Left that demand perfection immediately, all the time and everywhere in America, realize that that impossible standard can never be met.

Since it is not being met, they attack the society in a thousand ways until they undermine the confidence that the masses possessed about their culture, their government and their way of life.

Once the people are converted to Leftism and Statism, they are convinced that traditional America is hopelessly rotten and beyond salvation.

That is when the Communist system and dictator will be introduced and those systems are poor, with lots of suffering and murder being carried out by the totalitarian elite. That is the utopia that the Leftists always deliver to the people.

Your Mission

What is your mission in life? To do your own thing on a grand scale in such a manner as to put God and the world in a good light.

Psalm 84, 2-3

To die and go to heaven should be a believer ultimate ambition: "How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts! My soul yearns and pines for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God."

Breitbart

AWR Hawkins, a gun rights reporter for Breitbart, posted today that we need more gun control due to an epidemic of gun violence. She lies, for there is no epidemic of gun violence as overall murder rates continue to fall even while more and more lawabiding Americans own and carry guns. The NRA-ILA reports that since 1991 murder rate is down 45% and the overall violent crime rate is down 48%.

If gun violence is declining why is the Left pushing gun control? Because control of gun owners and restriction of constitutional rights is their real objective, and safety and compassion for the safety children was never the issue.

Tyranny disguised as compassion and social justice once again.

The New Resistance

They have a meme online to the effect that the new Democrats are now the radicalized enemies of America. I agree wholeheartedly but add this caveat. We want to defeat them but not have a civil war where millions of radicalized true believers are shot, killed or set to reeducation camps like dissidents in Red China.

We want to thwart Leftism, and bring them back into the fold as liberals or as converted converts to conservatism, but we do not want to coerce or hurt these misguided souls.

Nothing Wrong About It

There is nothing wrong with just being different--especially if one is a good person, an individualist, an individuator, bothering no one.

COS Reform

The Convention Of States Action is an attempt to bring power back to the people so that the size of government can be restricted, so that the budget will be balanced, and that elected officials and federal judges shall be term limited.

It is hoped that this structural reform will save America, but it is not enough. We need principled, virtuous supercitizens as individuating-anarchists to step up and run the country as candidates and voters. Altogether, these reforms should work well.

Doing Something Better

Could you be doing something better with your life and your time? Almost assuredly, but in you are maverizing, working, raising a family, paying your taxes and being a good citizen, you are 85% there already.

Superhumans

In 60 years, our grandchildren will be supermen and superwomen. They require super-religion, super-ethics and training as supercitizens to handle their new, fantastic powers and abilities without upsetting the republic, without overturning civilization and living under liberty.

Mavellonialism can help our grandchildren be ready to assume their roles as citizens in the future.

If Only

If only we could just get money and power out of politics and government operations, it would all be clean, honest and efficient.

Here is a clue: where people assemble and associate money, power, politicking, factions and corruption are endemic conditions. They can be controlled and directed to finer ends, but they cannot be eliminated. Nor can the chance of rife corruption and tyranny creeping into our republic ever be completely eradicated.

Still Learning

I have been deeply involved in the Gun Rights movement for several years. I also seek to understand the basic principles that grassroots citizen employers and lobbyists, must understand and utilize to keep their elected officials and politicians, their employees. I do that for practical research purposes on how to rev up my Mavellonialist political enterprise to empower engaged individuated supercitizens, grassroots lobbying on steroids.

Minnesota Gun Rights is a small but effective no-compromise, militant gun right organization in the Upper Midwest. The media, RINOS, Democrats and compromised gun rights organizations in Minnesota, like the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus all accuse the Dorrs at MGR of being con artists living off of generous, patriotic donors sending them money. That is outrageous, a smear and a lie. Only MGR has been saving Gun Rights in Minnesota from being taken from us.

I am being long-winded but by setting up what is going on, I can discover how the people take back St. Paul and Washington. By participating up close and at first hand, I have been able to see what works for grassroots lobbyists and what does not. 

The Dorrs are outsiders, almost loners among lobbyists making the rounds at the Capitol. The NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus are beloved, praised, cherished--at least by Republicans--by establishment insiders at the Capitol. These lobbying groups have gotten so close to the residents operating in the corridors of power that they are heard and given access, while agreeing to endorse politicians and campaign for and provide cover for sold out politicians that brag back home about defending gun rights, while never voting on gun rights bills, and allowing the grabbers to incrementally, boldly and abruptly infringe on gun rights, until our infringed upon 2A rights are taken away, even confiscation being the law of the state.

The conventional wisdom among liberals and progressives is that politicians become corrupted and sold out, owned by special interests and their representative lobbyists, as the moneyed interests get a grip on the politicians and order them on how to vote and what legislation to sponsor. There is much truth in this.

But, it works the other way around too and no one but me--that I know of--have discovered this reality and now seek to right it out as a principle on how not to remain effective as citizen lobbyists.

What occurred is that the NRA nationally and locally, and presumably, the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus, are owned by establishment politicians. To gain and keep access and influence, these tamed lobbyists become insiders who covet their access, perks and bonhomie with insider politicians. To stay popular and liked, they have to go along with what the insider politicians are up to. These tamed, grassroots lobbying organizations are ordered never to badmouth a turncoat Republican, or to warn the voters about their gun rights being eroded 15% every two years until they are gone.

Along comes fiery, militant no compromise MGR and the Dorrs, and the insiders criticize them for staying outside, for saying mean things, for not compromising, for being not humble and deferential before politicians. They criticize the Dorrs as shysters as and video-shooting outsiders that do not spend day after day with the insider politicians. But if the Dorrs did, or one day become Establishment, they will not longer really defend gun rights.

The Establishment sooner or later brings in, cuts deals with, buys off flatters off, all grassroots lobbyists until they compromise on gun rights like the NRA does. Look at the NRA patting Trump on the back as pro 2A while AG William Barr will push red flags legislation. Does Mark Rubio have NRA endorsement as he pushed red flag legislation in the federal Senate? Probably.

Let the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus be insider lobbyists and be held to a no-compromise stance on gun rights by gun owners and pressure from the MGR. Let politicians in Minnesota come to fear again voters and gun owners and the MGR to kill gun-grabbing legislation of any kind.

Let all the gun rights organizations in Minnesota not do the self-defeating, circular firing squad thing of shooting each other while vying for turf, members and power, but continue to work independently and yet united to protect our gun rights. In that way these nonprofit, grassroots lobbyists will be less inclined to be corrupted, sold-out Establishment insiders, and MGR, out on the fringes of grassroots lobbying, can keep the heat on while not being owned by the politicians that they lobby. Once a politician gets his arms around his lobbyist, then he is that lobbyist's boss, and then that politician gan institute gun-grabbing while bragging about being pro 2A, and his owned citizen lobbyist dares not speak out against his boss and owner.

Bill Maher

Bill recently bashed Middle Americans as less affluent and less educated than us and wish they were us (privileged Hollywood elites and Leftists).

Bill is correct in a way: people are born wicked, insecure and filled with self-loathing. They are also born equal; but they crave a society that is unequal, a stratified society with the masses poorer, less educated and directed by smug self-satisfied elitists from above. These elitists actually believe that they are a superior race to those they spurn, subjugate, brainwash, command, supervise, exploit, oppress and mock.

The middle class is not inferior to Hollywood actors because being equal is a natural right, just as the instinctive temptation to amass power over others, justified on a baseless claim of natural inequality--that the few rulers are superior and the many ruled are inferior. Inequality is a vitiating social construct devised, maintained by the elite that foist it off on adoring, submissive, credulous masses that know their place and accept their fate.

This is why Mavellonialism will help: a middle class of supermen and superwomen, roughly equal in education, talent, intelligence, wealth, liberty and accomplishment, cannot every be captured or held down by elites of any kind for any amount of time. They demand liberty or death and and armed and willing to fight to get and keep their liberty.

They would instruct Maher to go pound sand. A future society of supercitizens, individuating/anarchists enjoying their natural rights, with most power at the canton or state level, but living under a thin but strong federal umbrella codified legally and structurally as a constitutional republic, is the only permanent solution to inequality and the sickening, tempting human need to find some sense of self worth temporarily by ruling others, reinstituting caste society and bragging about what inequality among superior and inferior races of humans necessarily leads to elites having all the wealth and power while ruling the poor and disenfranchised.

Paul Manafort

The ham sandwich has been indicted and will likely die in prison.

Thank You

Thanks to the Dorr brothers and their MGR members, we may yet save gun rights in Minnesota.

Turned A Corner?

Here in Minnesota Senator Paul Gazelka, the Republican Majority Leader in the Minnesota Senate, finally caved to pressure from MGR and promised that his caucus would kill red flags legislation and universal background checks when those bills hit the Senate floor from the House, if they make it that far.

I wrote to the NRA about their attacks on MGR, their endorsing anti-gun sponsoring, their willing to compromise on gun rights, and their alliance with, tolerance for, and covering for anti-gun voting RINOS that talk gun rights but then so willingly cut deals to deny us our gun rights by gun-grabbing metro-lefites in the Twin Cities.

Here is an email that I just sent the NRA: "Today, 2/23/19, the rally at the Minnesota State Capitol by the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus announced full Republican State Senator opposition to red flag legislation and universal background check bills.

It took Minnesota Gun Rights and its North Star no compromise on gun rights to get us here. At the last minute, due to our pressure, the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus and the Republican Party are on board, finally.

Going forward, I want to see the NRA compromise on NO loss of 2A rights anywhere at any time, like MGR insists upon. I want no more quarreling between gun rights organizations. When MGR has a rally or takes a stand, I want Republicans, conservative Democrats, the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus and legislators with them in public, in solidarity, and on videos and television. There is too much at stake for infighting among gun rights groups.

I wantn Chris Cox to set  up a rally one Saturday in March at the Capitol in St. Paul to rally all these gun rights groups and supporters together to stop red flag and universal background checks. I want Chris on those steps demanding that Minnesota legislators in both Houses every session, whether in the majority or minority to kill all gun control legislation, and be actively holding hearings and getting pro-gun bills voted on ever session--things like constitutional carry and stand your ground bills. If the NRA leads these organizations and cooperates with MGR rather than denouncing and smearing the honorable and courageous Dorrs that have done more than anyone to protect gun rights  in the upper Midwest, I will remain a faithful NRA member and supporter. Ed Ramsey, Bloomington Mn.

Gallup

 

Drudge Report reports that a Gallup poll illustrates that liberals outnumber conservatives in only 6 states down from 9.

 

That is good news and indicates that there is still hope for America if we can swing the cowed, obedient slugabed majority to become defiant, principled, energetic, united constitutional conservatives. Then we can take back America again, and make her greater than ever.

NAGR Asking For Petition Signers

NO GUN CONTROL, NO DEALS, 2019

A Petition to my U.S. Congressman and Senators

WHEREAS: The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution clearly states "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed;" and

WHEREAS: Radical gun control forces led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi have seized power in the U.S. House, threatening to pass the most sweeping unconstitutional gun control in twenty-five years.

WHEREAS: Outrageous proposals to force law-abiding citizens to get federal approval and register every firearm purchase are at the forefront of their agenda.

WHEREAS: With the aid of some anti-gun Republicans, they're even trying to impose sweeping new gun bans and outright GUN CONFISCATIION without trial or due process.

THEREFORE: As your constituent, I urge you to oppose any anti-gun "deal," and insist you VOTE AGAINST ALL GUN CONTROL PROPOSALS in Congress.

Please fight to stop Nancy Pelosi's deadly gun control agenda in its tracks. The National Associations for Gun Rights will keep me informed of your actions. 

Republicans and conservative Democrats in the House and Senate need to reject this and vote no, while demanding floor votes on federal bills for constitutional carry and stand your ground legislation.

The Forecaster

I do not pretend to be Nostradamus, but I can clearly see that if the Left achieves its aim and destroys America, the future of the world will be much sorrier and grimmer than it otherwise had to have been.

Are Antinomies Real?

Can two paradoxical viewpoints contradict each other and both be true at the same time and false at the same time? Yes, according to moderate truth logic: all viewpoints and statements are assigned such truth values, more or less.

Be Ethical

Nothing is more pestilential than an individual without a strong, functioning conscience to guide in his daily actions. Without worldly training, anyone is capable of anything, most of it no good at all.

Dear God

Dear God, protect America from its enemies from without, but especially from its enemies within, seeking to undermine it and gut it, while Trump is working on MAGA.

What I Want

I wish to retain my property rights and my individual rights no matter what the Statists seek to deprive me of in the name of equality and social justice.

Adding Water

The NRA is adding water to the swamps in Minnesota and Washington.

DNA

Rats and gun-grabbers share the same spiritual DNA.

Open Email To The Beloved NRA

I am an NRA member of longstanding. I have also been a Minnesota Gun Rights member for several years. I give hundreds of dollars to NRA every year, and that is what I can afford. I paid my membership dues to NRA recently but have given $600 so far this year to MGR, not the NRA. The NRA in Minnesota is allowing Republican Senators here to support or vote for red flag legislation or universal background checks. NRA is not forcing Republicans in both Houses to bring to the floor and force a vote every session to have constitutional carry and stand your ground be Minnesota law. You are not uniting with MGR and speaking out with them publicly to protect them and the Doors from RINO turncoats trashing them at the Capitol. A lot of us NRA backers are starting to hate you for your compromised, sold-out approach to gun rights. Get on board with MGR or be discarded by former members.

92%

Online I read today that, in the mainstream media, 92% of mainstream media coverage of Trump is negative. These journalists are not the classical, principled journalists: objective, honest, truthful, reporting without bias, doing careful research and having three genuine sources before accusing anyone of anything.

They are Leftists hacks and propagandists that promote and run cover for the Deep State, for Democrats, for liberals and Progressives. They have no morals of any kind. They will lie, cheat, smear, bully, shame character assassinate, destroying the lives of innocent, good citizens be they the deplorables that voted for Trump, independents of integrity or constitutional conservatives. They are fanatics and ideologues working to advance the cause of Ameritopia, and nothing can stand in the way of or mitigate their outrage against what they perceive to be hopelessly rotten traditional America that must be smashed into a thousand pieces.

They do not mind if the opposition accuses them of being sold out to, serving as mendacious, immoral, cover for and useful idiots (one day to be cast aside by their ungrateful masters once the Revolution occurs) their socialist handlers.

They have but a handful of objectives. They want a one party police state in America, run by a Communist dictator. They plot and campaign to destroy traditional America, all of its institutions, market economy, its customs, its liberty and its Constitution. All of that is to be stripped away, and be replace by a Latin America style authoritarian regime like Cuba.

They want collectivism, tyranny and socialism installed here by wiping out individualism, liberty and capitalism. They adhere to globalist ambition of opening our borders so that people can come in by the millions from anywhere, with the ultimate goal of one world socialist government run from Brussels or UN in New York.

Through their Green Deal and ecoterrorist policies against humans, they will set humankind back hundreds of years in a new Dark Age of pre-industrial darkness of want, disease, grinding poverty illiteracy and starvation, without modern medicine, luxury, affluence and convenience that now routinely ease living as an average American citizen.

They will attack the religious as their satan-worshiping comes into open prominence.

The mainstream media practice mind control on the nonindividuated, illogical, grouped, emotional, gullible masses still cowed by and believing at face value whatever is fed to them in print, on television or in social media.

The hour is late as individuating supercitizens, strong, smart, skeptical, logical, organized, yet principled and sophisticated, are too few in number to take control of independent media and the machinery of government to straighten things out, including sponsoring a free, fearless press once again.

Democratic Socialism

Democratic socialism is incremental, but Communism and centrally controlled economy, and totalitarian subjugation of the people are the final results; no thanks.

Hopeful

I am a volunteer now for COS, and here is their mission statement: "Our Aspirational Goals are as follows:
1. The people organize and restore representative government as defined in our written
Constitution.
2. Restore a culture of self-governance in America.
3. Inspire a political and spiritual awakening in America.
Our goal is to grow the grassroots to the point where they drive the political and cultural
narrative in the state. It is a big, grand picture. The goal is to change the way Americans think
about government and governance. That means we have to get big numbers to overwhelm
the opposition. If you strive for that goal, and make significant headway, passing the
resolution becomes just one of the major metrics used to demonstrate that you're on your
way."

If this could be fitted with my emphasis on individuator/anarchist supercitizens that are the grassroots bosses running the show, the politicians would obey and and do what told to do, as self-governance returned to prominence as envisioned by the Founders.

Convention Of States Action

Here is the COS point to shrink government and revitalize republican life under our Constitution: Why call a Convention of States?
Simple: To bring power back to the states and the people, where it belongs. Article V gives states the power to call a convention to propose amendments that limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government.

Senator Gazelka

Paul, you are the majority leader. You need to work with MGR, not insult it, the Dorrs and we gun-owners seeking to prevent gun-rights losses in Minnesota. As a gun-lover, I am very worried that the Republican Senators at the Legislature are going to cave and vote for Red-flag and universal background checks. Help us hold the line. Promise me that you will vote against these infringement bills and introduce stand your ground and constitutional carry. You are the thin red line to prevent Latz, Bloomberg and Walz from stealing our guns, our gun rights and our liberty. Ed Ramsey, Bloomington.

Prayers For The Dead

I am an ex-Catholic, but still pray for the dead, those in Purgatory and those in heaven.

I thought, in a flash, the other day, that when we pray for the dead, we are actually and also praying for the strength, maintenance, growth and expansion of God's dominion on earth, in heaven, and across the universe.

Our prayers to these ends cannot hurt, and likely contribute to the vibrancy and power of the kingdom of heaven.

Senator Paul Gazelka

My Facebook remarks to Senator Gazelka: Paul, we need you to get your caucus in line, and go on line with Ben Dorr and promise as Republican Senators to block and vote against Red Flag legislation and against universal background checks. Quit telling us how you will vote and what you authored and sponsored. Do not give $1 million to pro-gun control groups. Introduce stand your ground and constitutional carry right now; have hearings on them and bring them to the floor for a real vote this sessions. That is the only rhetoric and fulfilled promises from you Republicans that we will believe in or accept. Quit defending anything else.

Glen Beck

He has a Facebook video, about 6 minutes long, an excellent expose on the Green Deal really fronting as a plan of misdirection, allowing socialists to take over the government, the economy, and ending liberty and private wealth, all in the name of social justice. Scary stuff to be opposed.

Why Call A Convention Of States

The COS people wrote this: "To bring power back to the states and the people, where it belongs. Article V gives states the power to call a convention to propose amendments that limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government."

It is a most just and worthy cause.

Undetained

If a free society, where justice, evidence, probable cause, due process, fair play and the rule of law hold sway, if you are lawabiding and a citizen in good standing, you should never be arrested, detained and handed over to the courts for trial for "political crimes".

That will change if the Deep State attempt to weaponiz the federal police and take out Trump through rogue FBI agents and rogue prosecutors is not uncovered and punished legally where appropriate.

Weapons

Three of the most effective weapons brandished by the Left to spread tyranny to unsuspecting citizens is expanding government role in private lived in the compassionate name of equality, social justice and wealth redistribution.

Psalm 83, 16-20

Dear  God,

Go after our enemies, that are your enemies, and defeat them, and prevent them from devouring us: "So pursue them with your tempest and rout them with your storm, Darken their faces with disgrace, that men may seek your name, O Lord. Let them be shamed and put to rout forever,; let them be confounded and perish, Knowing that you alone are the Most High over all the earth."

Hypothesis

You should be a free and creative thinker. You should ponder, dialogue, study, reflect, read, question and experience. From all this, with additional input received as flashes and hunches from the Good Spirits, you can generate brilliant, applicable, original hypotheses that may well be validated by time, logic and testing.

Causeless

Are there causeless actions and happenings in the universe ungoverned by will, by law or the Universal Lawgiver? There are but I prefer to presume that most things are caused, are explicable and generally predictable, if one has enough information about them.

Owen Benjamin

He has a Prager U video out that points out that conservatives and liberals in America are united traditionally in that they shared goals, sovling problems withinthe constitutional republic with free markets, from different angles.

Owens argues that the Left does not share goals with either conservatives or liberals. As a result, they are at war with Americans of all stripes, and the Democratic Party is a socialist party, therefore it is at war with all of America.

The Dorrs

Ben Dorr from MGR pointed out that there was a lone, heroic gun-rights advocate in Wyoming, either a senator or legislator, that worked alone to advance gun rights until he got wonderful gun rights bills passed. He was shunned and punished by the other professional, inside politicians that go along to get along, but he ultimately prevailed. He is a man of rare principle, courage and Churchill like persistence in face of overwhelming opposition.

Ben lamented that if we had one legislator with that rare courage, we would be able to do wonders in Minnesota, but not one Senator and not one Representative has championed gun rights here, let alone showed up at the 2/2/19 MGR gun rally at the Capitol.

That staggers me. That Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus and the NRA-Minnesota did not attend the same rally, and voice full cooperation with and backing for the MGR agenda delineates for gun owners how timid, anti-liberty and sold out are these gun organizations.

Ben got me thinking again. If we want candidates that are constitutional conservatives to run for office in Minnesota---or anywhere--we are going to have to select among our own MGR members and begin to get them to run for office in various state senatorial and representative districts. That is the only way to support, endorse and campaign for candidates for office that we can really trust.Even then we do not want them in the swamp too long, becoming part of the problem. We need to term limit of these Lefties and RINOS.

Allie Beth Stuckey

She has a biting video shown on Facebook, a new Democratic Campaign advertisement, for voting blue and it is funny, satirical and spot on in showing all that is wrong with Progressivism.

Ilhand Omar

On Facebook someone noted from Ilhand Omar's FAcebook entries that she will not assimilate or respect American culture.

 

I believe her. It is a typically Muslim point of view: we never assimilate anywhere and never respect any culture which we immigrate into. We take over that culture and subject it to Muslim culture and shariah law. The natives will submit and their culture will be obliterated, or we will obliterate them as the new overlords.

 

With that miltitant, radical, totaltarian theoocratic ideology pullulating through her thinking and the growing Islamic community in America, we must move away from progressive values of acceptance and inclusion, and warn any Muslim seeking to immigrate here, going forward--or any other immigrant--that they will take a loyalty oath to the American constitution and its rule of law, or they will sent home.

 No more multiculturalism, no more diversity. Assimilate, become American and love America, or stay home where it is so wonderful in your backwards, authoritarian, poverty-stricken quagmire without liberty, without free enterprise, without respect for each individual citizen.

Democratic Representative Eric Swalwell

He threatened gun confiscation, and then reacted to a gun lover with a threat of the military using nukes on revolting American citizens not willing to lose their arms. Well, the hard tyranny of the Left will include confiscation of guns and genocide against whites and conservatives and Christians at some point in our Ameritopian future.

My Post To A RINO

Here is my Facebook comment to a Republican RINO, proud of finding common ground with gun-grabbing Governor Walz. This whining Republican Senator trashed MGR and gun owners like me, so I hit back hard. I will not mention his name: "Why, are you an American as well as a Minnesotan, or you a Tim Walz, Ocasio-Cortez gun-grabber? Apologize to we gun-lovers and patriots that do not want any Republican Senators finding common ground with a gun-grabbing like Walz. Grow a backbone, Big Guy, and come out and promise to vote against red-flag seizure, against universal gun registration. Sponsor constitutional carry and stand your ground in Minnesota. Why are you so nicey nice with Metro lefties and gun-grabbers. They hate liberty, hate our rights and can only pass laws to bring tyranny upon our heads. is that he legacy that you wish to be remembered for? I fear that you might just be that way.

From Ben Dorr

Another lesson that grassroots educated and involved citizens can learn from MGR and the Dorrs is that almost all politicians are secretive, up to a lot or all that is no good. They are bribable and the corruption of the swamp in which they wade through takes most of them down the longer that they swim in those murky waters. If they can brag of once cosponsoring a piece of pro-gun legislation, or receive endorsement from the "moderate", compromising, appeasing NRA or Minnesota Gun Owners Caucous. They are what Ben refers to as professional con artists, that lying and deflect blame.

They want us to be civil and nice and avoid gridlock and find "common ground" while depriving us of our gun rights and other civil liberties. We must fight hard and rough.

We will not kiss their feet and beg for them to be nice to us, if we only meekly ask for crumbs. They work for us, we do not work for them. We denand to be heard and obeyed: either stop gun-grabbing legislation and advance gun-rights legislation and vote according to promises made on an up or down bases, whether a majority caucus or minority caucus, each and every sesssion at the Legislature, or be not endorsed, primaried and voted out, period.

We no-compromise gun-owners will remain strong and militant and fight tooth and nail. Deal with it, and we are not apologizing, not backing down and not going away, period.

Arthur Brooks

He is the President of the American Enterprise Institute. He is the speaker on an excellent Prager U video on how capitalism has lifted billions of the world's people out of poverty, and yet the young do not realize this, and are still backing socialism as the economic system for America going forward.

Brooks suggests that capitalists and conservatives need to do much more to educate the young and the public at large about the benefits and blessings of capitalism, America's most significant gift and contribution to the world.

Capitalism has enriched America and the whole world, Brooks notes, in the areas of globalization, freedom, property rights, the rule of law and entrepreneurialism. It is an exceptional video that should be taught in high school and college classes across the nation.

Quay County

Quay County, New Mexico has inaugurated an trend whose time has come. As an individuator/anarchist, I have long stressed that life, civil society and governance should proceed primarily at the local or county level.

The Quay County commissioners have proclaimed that Quay County is now officially a Second Amendment Sanctuary County. How about a trend to spread that across the country, with Commissioners, state legislators and Sheriffs in these counties all being encouraged and rewarded with reelection for establishing such sanctuary counties?

Bad News

Today, 2/16/18, on Facebook Levin points out that the bipartisan spending binge is now worse than under Bush and Obama. Levin attacks the Republican Party as progressive now, no more fiscal conservatives and McConnell and McCarthy lead the GOP fiscally leftward.

Ben Dorr of MGR noted that as the DFL here in Minnesota has drifted radically Left on gun-confiscation, the Minnesota politicians on the Right have drifted leftwards, embracing incremental steps to gun confiscation. Ben suggests that we push our Republican legislators her back to the right to hold the line.

Analogously, we must push federal conservative and Republican legislators back to the right, away from progressive overspending that will soon bankrupt America, and exercise fiscal dicipline, balance budgets and begin paying down the national debt.

Linda Sarsour

Linda Sarsour has a fiery anti-Trump video on Facebook today. She is an American Muslim fanatic that hate Trump, accusing him and his Administration of being white supremacists, anti-Islamic and Islamophobes.

She said Muslims duty here is to protect their community and obey Allah, not assimilate.

All right Linda, but I propose an oath of allegiance to the American Constitution for every immigrant coming in, and they must promise to uphold and abide by our legal system, which exclused practicing shariah law anywhere, here. If you seek to practice shariah law, you can be arrested or deported.

If you practice terrorism, anti-Semitism, anti-Americanism or preach and practice jihad from the pulpits of your mosques, you will be arrested and tried.

We will fight you here, over there, and everywhere to convert Islam and its people to a modern, moderate, deterrorized, nonviolent and demilitarized (at least using arms to spread jihad to advance the universal caliphate).

If you want to be law-abiding, peaceful, loyal, patriotic Americans, assimilated and grateful to be here, then we have room for the Muslims here, and some more such immigrants in the future.

Nattering Nancy

Nancy Pelosi warns that the next Democratic President can declare a national emergency to confiscate out guns. Go ahead and try it Nancy and Lefties.

Senator Paul Anderson of Minnesota

Dear Senator Anderson:

It comes to my attention from MGR that you have cosponsored anti-gun legislation in the past, and on record this year as eager and willing to work with Governor Walz to find common ground. That sounds like scary, squishy RINO-speak for working out gun-grabbing Governor to pass red flags legislation and universal registration of guns in Minnesota. Say no to those bills and cosponsor Stand Your Ground and Constitutional Carry, the only gun rights approach a Republican should embrace in Minnesota or anywhere.

Thanks,
Ed Ramsey Bloomington

52%

Trump's approval rating has climbed to 52%. May he do great, conservative things with his newfound popularity.

Wanting To Exit

Facebook tonight reports a poll of Californians that 53% want to leave. The Democrats, especially the militant Left, destroy everything that they touch: Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, New York, California and Newark, but its arrogant followers keep committing economic suicide over and over again, and that is defined and madness.

Murder

An ex-technician alleges that Planned Parenthood kept aborted fetuses alive to harvest their hearts and organs. This is murder, pure and simple. They should be arrested, tried and then jailed for tneir genocide against the unborn.

Should Race Matter

Of course it should, in legal circumstances of overt, blatant discrimination. Otherwise, race should be ignored in the work place and in government circles, especially for policy statements/

Racism is largely cured in America. It is time to move on and treat each person as an individual that maverizes. Her racial uniqueness can be salient and amazing as she uses what she brings to the table to establish her developed self in her unique way.

Turncoats

MGR has it right: tolerating RINO traitors on gun rights only rewards others for becoming turncoats too.

The Meme

Mavellonialism will not be successful and wide spread until meme, "Be all you can be." literally spread from person to person like wildfire, and is actualized believed, adhered to and practiced.

Understrapper

You need not be number one as an Olympic athlete, or the valedictorian of your class, or the most popular girl at the prom, or the most handsome dude at the party. You can live quite well as an understrapper in any of these capacities, and be at peace and contented.

What is required is that, as an individuating anarchist, commanded and called by the Mother to serve as an armed, no-compromise, liberty-loving, powerful angel in America, is that you of tomorrow does not play second fiddle to the you of yesterday.

A life well live is one of self-actualizing. Get going, keep perfecting, knowing that you will be never be complete or perfect, but the effort and outcome are well worth it, and make the Mother and FAther very happy with you.

No Difference

There is no significant difference between Communism and Fascism, at the bottom they are tyranny, a vicious form on communitarianism where the state, the hierarchy and the assembled group are all, and the civil society, the devolution of institutional arrangements and the cantonized lifestyle of millions of anarchist individuators are downplayed, even obliterated.

Levin, in Liberty and Tyranny, page 30, talks of the forms of tyranny: "The Statist's Utopia can take many forms, and has through out human history, including monarchism, feudalism, militarism, fascism, communism, national socialism and economic socialism. They are all of the same species--tyranny. . . ."

Melange

Moderation is that metaphysical melange of disparate stuff and competing elements that clash and smash into each other, but creativity, reason and experience can enable the versatile, imaginative thinker to make an ordered whole out of it that is internally harmonized and balanced.

Psalm 83: 1-6 & 10-11

Dear God: America the Great, the Noble, the Exceptional, the new Jerusalem is under attack by Progressives and Leftists out to tank this country. Please protect us from the children of darkness that may or may not realize that their religion of Leftism is a satanic faith, behind whom is situated  Lucifer and Satan, waiting to swoop down and take the reigns once the socialist, totalitarian Ameritopia is established here. Please save us and smite down or defeat our enemies, the forerunners of the Reign of the Beast, on the secular Left: "O God, do not remain unmoved, be not silent, O God, and be not still. For behold, your enemies raise a tumult, and they who hate you lift up their heads. Against your people they plot craftily; they conspire against those that you protect. They say,'Come let us destroy their nation let the name of Israel be remembered no  more!' Yes, they consult together with one mind, and against you they are allied . . .Deal with them as with Midian . . ."

A Firebrand

If Mark Levin is condemned by Progressives as a blunt, fiery conservative firebrand, and militant, where does that leave me, so much farther to the right, and so starkly conservative and walking with God's blessing and authority to speak and advise? I will be a voice crying in the wilderness for a long time to come, so it seems.

The Universe

Is the universe eternal or does it have a beginning and an end? In one sense, the universe as Fate, is without beginning or end, that is ultimate truth and reality. As Fate, the universe is also and simulatenously of extremly minute duration and of a unit of length and space so small that is cannot conjure up a description or quantify such penultimate minuteness.

Out of and back into Fate flow God as Mother and Father, creators and good deities, and out of and back into Fate stream the Devil as Lucifer and Lera.

These deities, good and bad are almost eternal, and infinite in size and reach, but not quite.

When the Father and the Mother Designed the world, and made cosmos out of Fate-constituted chaos, and then, brought humans into being, then natural history and eventually human history were started, and that brings us where we are today.

A Mavellonialist Thrust

Just as ancient Christians were horribly brutalized and martyred by pagans and officials in the Roman Empire, until the people got so used to them, after a few hundred years, and the Christian faith overthrew the pagan way of life--or absorbed it, so to maverized loners will and must go forth into fanatical, corrupt, Mavellonialist-hating joiners, the vast majority, and be martyred and killed until, after a few decades (the nonviolent conversion of the non-individuated masses by anarchist individuators will go faster due to modern virtual communication--will the persecution be that much more intense (most likely), maverizers will have so defeated resistance among groupists that the latter have become accustomed to the presence and reality of individuators.

We early Mavellonialists will take the hit for the benefit of future generation of millions and millions of great-souls, living angels serving God's purposes in almost perfect happiness, liberty, plenty and brillian personal performances by the bucket load.

A Peaceful Heart

May you Have a peaceful heart.

Mobilize

Mobilize, American gun-owners, mobilize.

McCabe Uleashed

Breitbart reports that McCabe admits that he was part of a Deep State conspiracy to spy on and remove their boss, Trump, under the invoked 25th Amendment.

Why is there not a special prosecutor, as Rush suggested today, and why are not these people in jail for  their treason, their illegal and unconstitutional actions

No Compromise

MGR has a caption of Facebook tonight about the demand from Lefties that gun-owners need to compromise some more. Here is the entry:
GUN OWNERS NEED TO COMPROMISE?
1934-National Firearms Act
1968-The Gun Control Act
1986-Firearm Owners Protection Act
1993-Brady Handgun Violence Act
1994-"Assault Weapons" Ban
1995-Gun Free School Zones Act

We have compromised ENOUGH!
No more infringements.

Amen to that I say.

Betrayal Again

Paul Gazelka, Channel 9 (Fox News), RINO Lawmakers, Democrats, Minnesota Gun Owners Caucous and the NRA put out a hit piece on MGR and the Dorr Brothers, claiming they are unknown at the Capitol, that they do no good work with anybody, and are just scam artists living off of gun owners.

Benn is living the high life off of us donators, living in a mansion in Northfield. These boys from Iowa are con artists and their sting is promoting gun rights.

Reality check: Ben and his wife drive 20 year old cars, and he makes and has made between $25, 000 and $35,000 the last few years.

Notice how the NRA, the local media, and the Gun Owners Caucous are providing cover for legislators giving alarming ground on Gun Rights, giving away our 2A and constitutional liberties in the name of common sense gun control, confiscation by incremental steps is how I label it.

Notice how, if they were legitimate, the Republican legislators, the NRA, the media, if unbiased and truthful, would be advocating for the people, supporting radical gun freedom and they are not. Notice how the mainstream gun lobbies do not work with other upstart gun groups, all united, all in together to push back against gun-grabbers. Instead they divide and confuse the public, deflecting heat way from quisling Republican legislators in Minnesota, who need and deserve a butt chewing, to put the heat on the starters of MGR, the only group actually fighting for gun rights in Minnesota.

Betrayal of the people, of the grassroots, by everyone in the ruling class, at state and federal level, is typical and rotten. Shame on these traitors and betrayers. The sleeping citizens of Minnesota and America are duped once again because they are not informed, alert, curious, skeptical, irreverent citizens demanding their rights and liberties from the elites in power robbing them of their liberties and rights.

Benn should take a video or invite reporters in to see his apartment and old cars, and show them his tax returns, and then ask them how is it that he is scamming gun owners that support MGR.

In Washington

We need constitutional carry as a federal bill, so why are not Republicans introducing it of offset H. R. 8?

nancy

She set a date and time next week to try pass H.R. 8, national gun registration. Go fly a kite, honey.

Klobuchar

She is running for President and will lead from the heart. This smiling Leftie will cost us a lot on the road to Ameritopia.

Ben Dorr

Ben Dorr is a young conservative of principle and fiery rhetoric that leads Minnesota Gun Rights; they are a very underfunded but efficient, powerful grassroots organization good at firing up the base and activating them.

As a member of MGR, I am proud of them for being effective. As a constitutional republican and constitutional conservative, restoring the republic is part of the MAGA project. If outfits like MGR, AFSCME, teachers' unions, and COS/Action and the NRA have grassroots organization strength and expertise to rally citizens to be active, get involved and lobby, this is the key to turning public opinion, public support and boots on the ground to turn this country around. At some point these outfits need to work together to form a coalition--within the Republican Party where they can, and parallel to it where they cannot--to save America from the coming tyranny and socialism being hurled at us by Progressives to quash us, and remake America in the image of Cuba.

I love MGR, though I likely am too radical and startling even for them. But I give money and time to them for the great work they do--no compromise lobbying to protect gun rights of Minnesotans--an uphill battle for sure.

I also have an ulterior motive for  joining them. It is not a sinister motive, but it is a offhanded sort of compliment. In life, we succeed by studying those that are better at what they do than we are. We must acknowledge and compliment their brilliance, identify how they got successful, and then share those principles with others trying to be successful at similar ventures.

My ulterior motive is to discover the principles (some doctorate in politics likely has already codified how to run active, grassroots campaigns to change public policy to where the advocate wants it to head) of citizen involvement that could be learned and utilized by citizen-soldiers and maverizing supercitizens in the years and decades ahead, to allow citizens in a restored constitutional republic to get control of the government at all levels, and keep control of it for decades at all levels, so that a principled, united majority of citizens--still respecting minority rights--can prevent Progressivism from ever again destroying or almost destroying beloved America.

To that end, I have been observing what the fine Dorr brothers have been doing for gun rights in at least three states, and would like to compliment and identify their expertise at building grassroots gun advocacy.

The MGR slogan or meme is that MGR is the no-compromise gun rights lobby in Minnesota, a deserved swipe at my beloved NRA and the toady cover-politicians-booties organizing (Minnesota Gun Rights Caucus). The Dorrs and MGR explicitly or intuitively grasp that owning guns as private citizens is a constitutional right and a natural right that tolerates very little legal regulation before the right to bear arms is infringed on to the point of being infringed enough to background check, register all firearms and then confiscate them. Without guns to protect our Bill of Rights civil liberties and our other unalienable rights, Progressives and the Left, under the guise of common sense, workable safety solutions, and compassion (ending violence in the world), all other rights will be lost, and liberty will be stripped from American citizens as the Democrats construct their one-party dictatorship. People have a natural right to defend themselves and their liberty, and even a divinely commanded duty to take up arms to oppose tyrants attacking the people. Compromise on less important issues or regarding peripheral harmless controversies is honorable and acceptable, but compromising on gun rights is a surrender legally of what should never be compromise or surrendered, and that is exactly in Minnesota what the NRA and Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus has compromised (confiscation a step at a time, or open repeal of the 2A). The latter two organizations are endorsing and not punishing Reagan and rural Democrats and RINO Republican candidates that allow incremental gun control.

Principle 1 practiced by the Dorrs: we do not compromise on constitutional rights that lead to liberty and growth of authoritarian central government eager to pass laws depriving the people of their freedom, their private lives and their enjoyment of their natural rights which are gifts from God.

Principle 2, practiced by the Dorrs at MGR. If a few committed professional lobbyists, like they are, believe what they believe, practice what they practice and take the hits and character smearing from the Left, from the NRA, from RINOS and from Democrats, they can make a huge contribution, and win over the public over time. As Ben notes on Facebook, it is not bad thing to be hated by your enemies and loved by your friends.

The Doors are hated by the Establishment and gun-grabbers because they do not play nice, and be respectful to politicians. The NRA is nice now and the other "nice" team players are loved by the media while all from all parties vote to give away our gun rights.

Principle 3, inferred within their no-compromise approach. When we are ordered to hand over our guns during confiscation to the police, the federal police or the federal army enforcing the confiscation, millions of us will refuse, respond that they can go pound sand, and then take up arms against the government that we so love, that has lost its way, and forced patriots, against the wall, to resort to such drastic measures. It well could occur.

Principle 4: Read this February, 2019 Facebook posting by Ben: NOT IN MINNESOTA!
The DFL goes to war for their base, as they always do. And weak and feckless GOP "leaders" like Paul Gazelka and Kurt Daudt go to war for themselves. Mr. Rogers (Gazelka) couldn't care less about victory for Minnesota. If he did, he'd FIGHT for gun owners!

The Dorrs have identified what is wrong in America, not just Minnesota, and Mark Levin and Rush our worried about this same pattern: the Left whether in power or out of power are always on offense, their media, their Hollywood actors, their billionaires, the Deep State federal employees, their teachers unions, their academics, their pastors, Chamber of Commerce RINOS, their never-Trumpers and their true-believing Democratic elected officials advocating and legislating for the Socialist Ameritopia. They fight hard to advance their cause all the time, and they are completely united and speak and vote in Congress with one vote. This is not principled unity. This is the unity softer and yet similar to the internal workings of a mass movement. There is not moderation, dissenting voices or a willingness to compromise. There is gridlock because these unprincipled extremists are fighting all the time, and concessions and incremental victories will never appease them They remain angry, outraged and solely focused on complete, ultimate and final victory over conservatives, capitalism, the Constitution, capitalism and the American way. All must be wiped out and pushed aside for their aim--to build their nightmarish Marxist utopia in America. Their aim is totalitarian and their means are thuggish and unrelenting. We must defeat them, not surrender to them, and we have been giving ground to them for 100 years, which is why we are in the dangerous mess. The Left moves as a gigantic Leviathan monster and it wields terrible power: they sense that the people, the Right and conservatives are weak, divided, afraid and on the defensive. Their final push in the next ten years will show if they take over the government and the entire society or not; they may already be unstoppable as they usher in a Dark Age that Americans have never experienced, or considered remotely possible. Lefists are addicted to totalitarian power and ways and they are cunning and shrewd at working together to bring this hellish system to America.

Ben Dorr in his entry blasts weak, feckless Republicans. They are tepid, timid, corruptible, lip-service compromisers willing to give away gun rights an inch at a time while brandishing their NRA endorsements that the NRA signed off on giving away our gun rights. In two years the Democrats will be back to register all guns, and then confiscate them. That is their true objective, their only goal and all other reassurances from them are lies to quiet the public until it is state and federal law that the citizens are disarmed, unable to fight back against the coming socialist dictatorship, pogroms against whites and Christians, rogue independent federal prosecutors and state police sent after dissenters. The Dorrs are yelling at Minnesotans to wake up and conservatives and unite now and fight back and fight hard (nonviolently and legally) against Democrats, gun-grabbers and nasty Leftists. Every Republican politician and many conservative Democrat politicians, on every level of government should oppose all gun-grabbing legislation. And they should be introducing in every legislative session, whether in or out of power, gun rights bills like constitutional carry and stand your ground legislation.

Principle 4: Constitutional conservatives, and their political candidates and Representatives should fight hard all the time, speak with one voice and compete to win in the court of public opinion, reaching voters even in California and Illinois to build back a conservative majority in this country.

Principle 5: We are all born frail, corruptible sinners. So, concentrated power, sooner or later, will corrupt its wielder, and this universal law applies to every politician, lobbyist and politician that ever lived, and this is why term limits for legislators, judges and Presidents is a good policy, No matter how idealistic, virtuous, honest and nobly intentioned is the young politician (and many are lying faithless hypocrites from the get-go) is, the system will run him out or convert him to joining the rotten establishment. Politicians hate their constituents. They regard them with contempt. They tell them what they want to hear, and cannot wait to get back to the swamp to start cutting deals with lobbyists and other insider cronies as big business and big government conspire against the voters and middle class. With this in mind, voters must become supercitizens, so smart, so involved, so alert as to what is going on and how to run the system to get what is required for the common good, that they assume that their fawning, lying, treacherous, larcenous, bribe-inviting, power-hungry politicians--now a part of the ruling class in Washington--are betraying great American political traditions--the Constitution, individual civil liberties, gun rights, individual liberty, the rule of law, limited government and government staying out of the capitalist economy and the civil society, allowing the citizens to run their lives, free of any excessive government involvement, control or over-taxation. There are no guarantees in life, but I would stake my life and my reputation as a thinker upon the optimistic hope that a realistic but idealistic electorate, skeptical but principled, can straighten out this Statist mess and keep it straightened out, by leashing every elected politician and bureaucrat in the country permanently so they follow the sovereign will of the people. It matters not if politicians are honest or keep their promises: their bosses, the people, will be running things and these lackeys will have to do as they are told or not be reelected, or be fired from Civil Service.

Here is Ben's 2/5/19 Facebook: this quote is from something called #mnleg--"If a legislator blames every bad thing on the Governor or the opposite chamber, you're being lied to by that politician." He is suggesting that the weak and RINO Republicans in the Minnesota Senate are able to stop gun control bills from advancing into law in Minnesota in 2019 if they just say no and stick together. They should be advancing Constitutional Carry at the same time. Whining that they are helpless to withstand those scary DFLers does not pass the smell test. Each of us take a principled stand right now and every time to withstand gun-grabbing by hostile Big-Government fascists.

Principle 6: We must fight the good fight on the local level, but also coordinate with other states and fight the united battle against federal politicians out to grab guns too: Ben quotes from Trump's SOTU that we want not just victory for our Party, but we want the whole country to win.

Principle 7: A bought, corrupted politician that has already been in Washington tor St. Paul too long is already transformed into a swamp creature of the ruling class: this educated member of that class looks down on the people, works to pass laws that are contrary to the public good and the longevity, health and sway of the constitutional republic. He is not there to represent the people. He is there to represent his cronies, his bribing lobbyists, his special interest and to grow tyranny Deep State, for the ruling class lives off of the people, that are meant to serve the ruling class, to pay taxes to fund the ruling class, to obey the ruling class, and to be regulated, directed, oppressed by, enslaved by and exploited by the ruling class. These are the objectives of a career politician in St. Paul or in Washington, and that is the truth, no matter their disclaimers or fork-tongued promises not kept.

Ben has another Facebook entry: "There is nothing quite so arrogant as politicians who think gun owners should reward them for doing nothing! #mnleg#NoParticipation Trophy

Politicians feel that it is their job to give us orders, not take orders from the people.

There are other principles that animate an effective citizens' lobbying entity like MGR, but they are ot known by me. If the Tea Party, MGR and COS/Action and the NRA would or do operate on these 7 principles like MGR does, then conservative and Republican advocacy groups would be much more effective and powerful in shaping the national debate.

Sources Of Evil That Influence the Educated To Misbehave

Education is no guarantee of moral goodness, and the educated traditionally have been part of ruling classes all over the world. Intellectuals faithfully serve, justified and propped up and do prop up mercantilist kings, divine rights kings, the pope, aristocracies, oligarchs, empires and democracies a long as they were employed by, acknowledge and respect by the rulers of the status quo.

They act as if and do accept that they are superior to those they rule. They enjoy pushing around and interfering in the lives of the little people under their thumb. They do not think average people are smart enough to run their own affairs and make wise choices. They need directives from their educated rulers that are wise, superior, smarter, expert and beyond making poor choices, beyond reproof or criticism. These intellectuals in charge are all good, all smart and always right.

They give the orders and run things, and the people need to know their place. These elite intellectuals crave insider status, recognition, adulation from the ruled, and appreciation from their ruler or rulers. They beam with a pat on the head from the king and being offered a crumb of power to wield over the citizens.

Liberty, equality and justice for the people are what they dismiss and downgrade out of hand. They have all the answers and useful policies which they then practice upon the people, in need of correction and teaching, no matter how draconian, failed or disastrous these policies prove to be when put into practice.

Now there is true pride and false pride.The false pride of the educated, rooted in their bottomless sense of failure compensated for by feeling invincible and infallible, renders them so arrogant and self-congratulating that their divorce from self-honesty is real, total and final. No criticism, reasonable argumentation, appeal to decency and fair play, or facts presented can shake them from their certain beliefs and conviction of perfection.

By contrast, the people, not being such narrow, narcissistic, subjective bureaucrats, are more rounded, worldly, objective and experienced. They know what justly to be proud of, and what to be ashamed of. They may not enjoy criticism, but they accept it and learn from it, Their are secure relatively, in their stronger self-love, and use enough right reasoning to find the right answers, practical solutions, and usually to engage in fair play, celebrating the dignity of others, their equals. They can learn from and correct each other without denial or fierce resentment. They live and let live, not seeking to give orders and rule their neighbors.

Where people are ruled without their consent, the wielder of authoritarian power automatically and psychologically is thrust into the world view both irrational and immoderate. For under natural law, that the Creator set in place to operate the universe, and keep the cosmos humming along, it is a rational and moderate power distribution, more or less to be shared equally among individuals in society doing their thing, raising their kids, and making a living as they choose to, exercising their liberty.

The despot or his intellectual agents scattered through out the government hierarchies, ruling the people without their approval, by threats, fines and punishments. Were the people free and volunteering to be ruled by their elected officials, then reason and persuasion could be addressed to them, and then a majority of them or their representatives would elect a sound public policy--ideally.

The educated, as middle echelon members of the elite, should be in hog heaven. But their conformist lifestyle and compliance to the whims of their betters does breed in them an existential self-loathing that no amount of alcohol they drink, or drugs that they take, or lies of comfort that they rationalize to themselves, They know, on some level, that they are owned, controlled and supervised. They are but fragments of what an individuating anarchist is. This shame, this acceptance of their real inadequacy as fragmented egos renders them despicable, defeated creatures, and their self-loathing is a powerful, real phenomenon. When they unite as an entity of self-deniers, great evil can spring from all this hating, and the people of the land are in great peril.

In a constitutional republic, where people are sovereign, it is unconstitutional and illegal for Presidents, legislators, bureaucrats; lobbyists and judges to cater and to legislate and to regulate for the sake of preferred special interests, ignoring the will of the people.

As we return to constitutional republicanism, we will reposition the Constitution in its rightful high place as the framework for reestablishing the basic rights of the citizens and to reenact limited government in which checks and balances are in place and honored once again.

Where the people enjoy liberty and their unalienable rights once again, their high self-esteem  will keep government small, powerful, federal, efficient, honest, just and fair. The virtuous and yet activistic citizens will guarantee liberty for all, and their self-esteem will be high as a result and justly so. When citizens free and prosperous, feel secure, they allow their neighbors to do their own thing without senseless interference.

The educated within the ruling class, and all other members of that elite, are fanatics or addicted to accruing undeserved power unto themselves. If one can picture each citizen with 2 units of power allotted to them by the Almighty, to enjoy and employ as they wish in a realm of ordered freedom to wield their power as they wish while going after the ends that interest, reward or please them.

The elite enslave the masses and rob them of their units of power that they are entitled by their Maker under natural rights to enjoy and experiment with, on their way to maverizing as living angels and supercitizens. When this power is taken and centralized under the authority of a despot and his educated servants administering his will, a despotic, corrupt, wicked polity must necessarily be the outcome. The tyranny that professors have erected on campuses across America, not divested of independent thought and diversity of opinion, is symptomatic of a totalitarian mindset, one that the educated easily fall prey to.

Professors, now broken, meek, subjugated if talented educational bureaucrats live a life that is soul-killing. But they are so vested in this weak way of life that they are convinced of its worth and plot to Europeanize all of America into a statist monster with hierarchies across the land, a voracious octopus with tentacles in every private life.

These intellectuals adore Leftist views: open borders, strict control of the economy for reasons of environmental extremism, global citizenship over national sovereignty, and a hail-the-well-met shout out to and cordial enjoyment of globetrotting elites everywhere that push for Big Brother Government in charge in Brussels, Geneva, Washington and New York.

There are 5 streams of evil (at least) flowing through the world from Lucifer. All have been discussed above. They are: group-living, immoderation, low self-esteem expressed socially as selfless belonging to a pack, power lust (the urge to control neighbors in need of being left alone to run their own affairs) and working to maintain and support a caste system of any kind that ranks people at various levels of interlocking hierarchies, all comprising the State that is spread over and rules all society down to the minutest detail.

These streams of evil come together in the heart and psyces of the educated that serve the ruling class. They provide cover for and eloquent speech that justify the inherently unjust reality of their superiors, the despot or despots that rule over society.

The people so educated and so ruling are thoroughly corruptible as they willingly defend and work to extend, like the weasel bureaucrats and officials that they are, the reach and pressure that the state brings down upon the heads of the people, in service to the totalitarian regime or mass movement that they have pledged loyalty to.

What is good in politics and law and government is ultimately moderate, and distribution of power among individuated supercitizens and by checks and balances at work and is kept up.

What is wicked in politics, law and government are extreme in ideology (leading to gridlock, mob rule, one party dictatorships of majority dominance), there the distribution is amassed in the hands of the ruling few, while the many are deprived of power, life, liberty, happiness and property,

Race Does Not Matter

Senator Warren, running for President, declares that race matters. No Elizabeth, it only matters to the Left desperately clinging to the hope that minority voters in America will not abandon the Democrats to followed Pied Piper Donald Trump. Race only matters to a few Klansman, reverse racists and purveyors of identity politics that seek to incite race war.

What matters is each individual, her dreams, her aspirations, her going after opportunity to better here life. These things really matter.

James Delingpole

In an article for Breitbart, Delingpole shows with graphs how alarms are warning about global warming when the world is actually cooling. Fake news and environmental alarmism all meant to dupe the people into accepting socialist takeover of our entire society.

Scary

Fromm Prager U: The New Green Deal, which Ocasio-Cortez lauds, would make us be compliant with the Paris Climiate plan, spending 0be hundred trillion dollars to maybe cool the earth .03 degrees.

Oh Alexandria!

It was reported online that, the other day, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez offered that all Latinos have a right to migrate to United States. Really, if that is so--it is not--let us, under the Monroe Doctrine that we are annexing unilaterally all nation from here to the tip of Patagonia, so that Americans can migrate wherever they want, and we can raid those nations for any resource we want. That ought to offend the United Nations.

Education

All humans are innately wicked from birth more than innately good. What this signifies is that anyone can do great good or great evil, like serving as a guard at Auschwitz. Being educated does not seem to be an exemption from the capacity to commit heinous crimes in the service of totalitarian states.

Intellectuals, the clerks, the clerisy, the educated, for 3500 years of recorded history have always enthusiastically and efficiently served their masters: kings, oligarchs, popes, cardinals, aristocrats, nobles. The well-educated have always served their masters as part of whatever ruling class held sway in a specific country.

As part of the rulers and commanders, they felt proud and comforted of their high position. They enjoyed directing, supervising and lording it over the inferior masses, whom they really believed were a lesser species of human.

The educated looked down on the illiterate, unwashed masses: the money-grubbers, the merchants, stockbrokers,  insurance interests and bankers, industrialists, shipping firms, trades people,  blue collar workers and the unskilled workers. The educated believe that they are smarter, better, more compassionate and wiser than the masses that they feel superior to.

The educated are very self-righteous. They have all the answers and are always correct. Therefore, they are beyond being criticized, corrected or admonished. Their job as part of the ruling class is to be be the managing adult in the room directing and supervising the children, the naughty, foolish, selfish, weak masses that do not know how to live and are not fit to run their own lives or make their own decisions. Their private lives need a public manager in all its aspects.

The educated condescend to rule and direct the masses, over which they crave to have power over.

Well-Educated People

Are well-educated people more cruel than blue collar workers with a mere high school diploma and some technical education? As a general rule, I would answer yes and here is why.

First, a qualifier: I am not anti-education, formal or informal, school-provided or self-educated. Nor am I anti-reason. All educators need to encourage students, of all ages, to self-realize, be curious, loving learning, asking endless questions, be skeptical, reading wide and taking courses forever.

Education and the use of reason are value-neutral tools to reach any end, or one's tailored ends: To become quite accomplished, to work hard and smart, to seek a good job and to hold onto it, for nation-loving, God-loving, in short growing into being a person of substance, quality, love and integrity.

Highly educated people served Hitler and committed monstrous crimes in his name. If their degrees and advanced degrees did not make this way, what did?

Dr. Haim Ginott

My brother-in-law, a semi-retired Lt. Colonel in the Army Reserves, posted a powerful piece on his face book account, a quote from Dr. Haim Ginott, likely Jewish, a child psychologist and Holocaust survivor. The picture above it shows Hitler with his arm around a young boy in his Hitler youth uniform.

Ginott's quote: "I am a survivor of a concentration camp. My eyes saw what no person should witness: gas chambers built by learned engineers. Children poisoned by educated physicians. Infants killed by trained nurses. Women and babies shot by high school and college graduates. So, I am suspicious of education.

My request is: Help your children become human. Your efforts must never produce learned monsters or skilled psychopaths. Reading, writing and arithmetic are important only if they serve to make our children more human."

My mother was a remedial education teacher. My two sisters are speech pathologists. My nephew is a high school math teacher. My oldest brother is a brilliant, retired math professor, still devising original theorems. A love of intellectual investigation, independent think and reading widely were values brought to our farm kids by our parents.

I have serious reservations about the current education system, and the way that children are now taught, but I am not anti-education, formal or informal. How do we help children become good citizens, credentialed, and formally educated citizens, that would accept being imprisoned, tortured or killed by totalitarian overlords, rather than do to innocent victims what thousands of educated, sophisticated, worldly successful Germans did to the Jews last century under Hitler. Would educated American citizens today, if a Hitler came to power here--a putative or actual anti-Christ?

 I conjecture that our doctors, our nurses, our engineers, our tech school technicians like I am, our high school and our college graduates would do all the vicious things here, under totalitarian progroms, would inflict upon Jews, unswerving Christians, Mavellonialists, conservatives and individualists, that the Germans and Nazis committed against the Jews at Auschwitz. I theorize that we are all flawed sinners, naturally no better  or worse from our German ancestors, and that, if raised wrong and educated wrong, in their historical context, we would act about the same as they did. People are not smarter or no dumber, or no better or worse from generation to generation.

We must educate all children to be of good will, with the courage to stand by what is right, and refuse to what is wrong, no matter the worldly hurt suffered for so stand fast. If children are raised with bad wills, then their efforts could be canalized to serve the wicked ends of a monster like Hitler. If group pressure and totalitarian terror is brought to bear on a civilian population by fascist or communist overlords, a police state, then formally educated and degreed citizens would agree to do terrible things, as commanded by their governors. The individual wills of the private person is coalesced into a gigantic, aggregate, collective bad will. That is when gas chambers are a possiblity.

To bring up children of good will, of strong character, we must educate the heart as well as the head. Ethics and faith should taught in church and by the parents. Educators at school can teach children subject content, but civic virtues like obedience, respect for parents and authority, respect for the nation and the flag, a balance between rights entitled to and obligations as a citizens, taxpayer, soldier, and active political participant, must be taught.

Teachers should teach and inspire children to question, be skeptical, to balance personal interest and collective interest as a utilitarian personal assessment, to think for themselves. Children of good will that individual-live and individuate as well as group-live and seeks after popular affirmation, make reluctant little Nazis, educated monsters or skilled psychopaths.

As a radical individualist and maverizer, I have long criticized institutional living and huge, organizations to provide services. Modern children are ensnared from birth by TV cartoons, smart phones and iPads. Now the Left controls Academia and the public school system. Children believe what mainstream media and instructors and teachers brainwash them with and indoctrinate them with at every level of formal education. We are rearing educated Leftists, myrmidons to the socialist Ameritopia on the hill. These children have no self, no self-actualization, no individual-living to bring them up as supercitizens, self-actualized, defiant fighters, never willing to participate in or surrender to any murderous schemes by their in-place secret police state.

Professors are damaged, crippled souls. Despite their PHD degrees, they are brilliant, specialized educational bureaucrats, they run in packs and do articulate, stale groupthink. Being cogs in an institutional hierarchy, makes them selfless. They do not love themselves, but hate themselves because their self-love, their self-interest, their liberty, their independent thinking and their right-reasoning have been stripped from them. What is left is the shell of a human being hollowed out by the system that it now
 comes to love, serve and willingly perpetuate upon all society. Hoffer guides us here. Where millions of people, formally educated or not, or educated or not, so self-despise that they seek their holy cause to escape from freedom into, they are ripe to serve as eager Nazis building and operating gas chambers. It is collective man, institutionalized man, organizational man, group-oriented and group-living man, loyal to and subservient to the hierarchies to which he belongs, in a totalitarian society in which the government is God, is everywhere and controls everybody in their lives as outer persons and as inner persons.

If things go wrong in America or in any other socializing country, then totalitarian elites, with tens of millions of formally mis-educated people of all ages, could convert them to serve its mass movement projects like building gas chambers and starting world wars.

Lost

The Left in America has lost its moral compass, and who would have thought that secular humanism would be their ideology to justify infanticide?

Headed The Wrong Way

Identity politics is group politics, ever-emphasizing the group that one was born into or belongs to over one's individual personality and potential.

Prager notes e Pluribus Unum, or one nation of America out of many. Racism and tribalism, all being stirred up by the Left to sow discord in America, are the offspring of identity politics, and racism, bigotry, violent factionalism, discord, fighting and disunity are its fruits, a race or class war may grow out of it.

To end groupism and identity political is to thead the right direction. Either we encourage citizens to individual-live and maverize, or we die as a nation.

Sneaky Fanatics

You think that incrementalists are not fanatics: do not believe it: that is how the Progressives have taken over America, turning it into a Statist democracy.

For gun control, they want universal background checks. Then they want universal gun registry. Then they confiscate all dones. Tyranny comes in creeping, and then it has us ensnare. Hell no. Fight back.

Rush

He was lamenting that the Left in America are always angry and always outraged, no matter how much that we try to appease them, surrender to them or compromise with them. Both Rush and Levin share a keen understanding of malevolent Leftist motive: those people really do hate America. They espouse that America is rotten to the core and has been from its inception and before. The only solution, a final solution, is to wipe out all thing American, and replace with with Marxism.

It is hard to believe how serious, tireless, focused, united and energetic are these true believers. They are on the long, relentless march, and nothing less than total victory will ever appease them.

Islamic No-Go Zones

According to Facebook there are no zones in America controlled by shariah law. That needs swift, firm total opposition and fast.

The Educated

Eric Hoffer long warned that the educated people,, traditionally part of any ruling class, will serve any tyrant, no matter how cruel or arbitrary. Ghandi warned about the hard-heartedness of the educated class. Bernard Mandeville repudiated the suggestion that the educated are more moral than illiterate peasants in the field. Being educated makes one credentialed, smarter, and a possessor of more knowledge, but wisdom, kindness and acceptance need not be added. There is a lack of pity in the educated, a mercilessness and passion for ruling and directing the private lives of the masses. Where the educated serve a mass movement like the Third Reich, the educated can put people in ovens.

Tyranny

In the modern world, tyranny is state abuse of the private citizen, and it is unconscionable.

We need sturdy strong individuals to withstand the aggressive, creeping state attempts to get its clutches on us.

Dealing With Them

If you are in heavy sledding, and are about to be overcome by your foes, cry out to God, to help you deal with them, or vanquish them outright.

Your Domain

Your private property is your personal domain over which you exercise considerable leeway as how to use and enjoy this resource.

Charles Blow The Reverse Racist Blowhard

Charles Blow, a black Leftist columnist, according to Breitbart, on Sunday on CNN asserted that the Border Wall is a monument to white supremacy. No Charles, it will be a monument to asserting border control and our national sovereignt

He said Trump is using the immigration controversy to pit whites against non-whites.He also accused President Donald Trump of using the border wall for “theater” to bait “white people against people who are not white.”

Blow also attacked voters that support Trump, and if they ignore his "racism",  they are racist too.

Well, Charles, this "racist" does have three prejudices that he admits to: I do not like socialists and I do not like reverse racists, obsessed with race, never judging anyone as an individual or by their character.

I do not like power-hungry groupist elites out to destroy America and set themselves up as our rulers.

Stand Your Ground

Stacey Abrams says if you stand your ground, you are a bigot. The thinking of this black, female Georgia, fiery socialist is filled with prejudiced premises.
If you stand your ground, you are trying to protect and defend a neighbor, yourself, your family or your home, which only applies undeserving avaricious, materialistic, selfish racist whites that have all the loot worth robbing and killing for.

And of course the predominance of muggers, robbers and home invaders are young black males because they are hungry, poor and desperate because society has so deprived them of equal opportunity and hope. The poor dears have to turn to a life of crime as their only upwardly mobile ladder.

Have you had enough of the stereotypes?

All black youth need in America is work ethic, honest moral training, a dad, a sense of hope and some training in indiiduating and the result would be the number of young black men invovled in violent crime of any kind would severely decline.

Then, white (or any other American) who have earned their own wealth, and open carry, or have a loaded gun by them at their homes, will be able to stand their ground without caving into social shaming not to defend their property and personhood.

My Moral Compass

That current, moral savant, Prager nails it with this posting of his on Facebook today: "

From a material perspective, life in America gets better and better. From a moral perspective, the same claim cannot be made. One manifestation of our moral decline is how the country, thanks to the Democratic Party and the left, is getting meaner.
The case of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and a 35-year-old racist photo from his medical school yearbook is the latest example.
A generation ago, Americans not only forgave the sins of public figures; they sometimes forgave too easily. But throughout American history, Americans understood that sinners can turn their lives around. They understood that what someone did 30 or 40 years ago does not forever disqualify the individual from being deemed a decent person if he or she led a decent life after that."

I am no fan of Northam, a radical abortion-rights advocate, and a Leftist, but we have gone crazy with being offended in this country. What Prager advises about forgiving, and cutting people some slack, is a very Christian/Jewish thing to do.

All are flawed. All will fall short. We must show mercy towards public figures, others and ourselves; and forgiveness towards all that repent, or at least did much better in the future.

Underlying all of this is the natural moral law of moderation. Leftist, gotcha ideology has turned merciless, extreme and must have fresh victims everyday to devour.

Our social culture is now a reign of terror, a sort of Twitter-driven mob rule. It is cruel, pointless and is devouring our civil society.

Complete unwillingness to forgive is corrupt and extreme. It follows a law of immorality not generated in heaven.

Learning Young

If kids learn about guns and ethics when young, they will handle both well when older.

Racist

The Left would help the political dialogue and enhance their credibility with the public tenfold if they would quick exaggerating, lying and engaging in accusing all conservatives to identity politics as racists to shut down and cow their critical opponents.

Name-calling  not only is reverse-discrimination, or racism against whites from the Left, but it smears good people and stifles political debate and expression.

Psalm 82, 5-8

God will come down hard on ruling elites (gods) that exploit, rob, oppress and enslave the people and the poor. Lawlessness and injustice are rampant: "They know not, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. I said: 'You are gods, all you sons of the Most High; Yet like men, you shall die, and fall like any prince.' Rise, O God, judge the earth, for yours are all the nation."

Mark Levin

He is famous for speaking plainly. This brilliant political philosopher, keen legal scholar and conservative intellectual has a most subtle mind but he conveys his thoughts mostly in simple, clear language, and that is a rare gift.

What brought this to mind was my ruminating about speaking or writing in euphemisms. There is no reason to use scatological, offensive language.  One can be frank and yet respectful, mentioning the unpleasant and depressing and the real without being insulting, inflammatory or emotionally shocking when it need not be communicated.

I do not favor the use of euphemisms, but nor I favor needless harsh or offensive language to speak plainly.

Larry Arnn Lectures

Larry argues that humans are rational animals because they speak, and speech is what makes them rational and intelligent beings or intelligent animals. These animals speak of pleasure and pain, of what is just and unjust. The Declaration of Independence declares that all are created equal so none can rule us, without our consent, let alone ever enslave us.

Larry points out that none can rule us without our consent--we give them permission to rule us, and our consent is our social contract. We have a representative and federal government here but the ultimate arbiter is the people that express themselves through a constitutional majority, although they do not rule themselves directly.

Larry argues against pure, direct democracy to prevent majority rule from becoming tyrannical. The Founders offered representative government instead where legislators, ruled by reason through discussion, talk things through, and deliberating, before passing a bad law. We do not want to be ruled by our passions, so the bicameral Congress was intended to slow things down.

Ideally, under the constitutional republic, we control the government as voters while it protects our freedom.

We have moved a long way away from this optimistic, beginning arrangement.

Hated

Why do people hate capitalism and success? There are many reasons, but I suspect that the educated elite in government, in industry, in Academia, the professional life and in business all see money-grubbing and chasing after profits as crass, mindless, conformist shallow, cruel and shameful as the players are shaken out into categories of winners and losers.

Also, people are selfless and run in packs. Selfless groupists preferred collectivization: group-living, group emphasis in utility ethics, organization living in hierarchies, and national ownership of businesses and property.

Few are individualists and too few now love capitalism, love making wealth for themselves and their family, love growing the wealth and economy to the benefit of all and themselves.

Human nature favors collectivism and socialism over individualism and capitalism. Human nature is mostly corrupt, so untrained and ignorant joiners favor policies that are anti-capitalism and anti-individual, and that is their horribly misguided, but natural inclination.

The Government Is God

The atheist, the secularist and the Leftist worship the federal government. It is God, the only god, and they worship it by practicing Marxist ideology.

How can such a social order, a command and control economy, and socialist dictatorship endure?

Answer: it will collapse.

Bottomless PIt

The Left see the government as a generous, plentiful bank, a bottomless pit of trillions of dollars so the people can get all kinds of free stuff without having to pay taxes for it. The money train will never quit running, so pile on more and more expectations. Confiscate all private wealth, redistribute it, nationalize all industry and business, and take over the economy entirely.

What reality do these people live in?

What Matters

What we say is important, but what we do is what really matters.

Gun Owners Caucus

These sleazeballs give RINO REpublican representatives in the Legislator cover so that they can work with the Leftists and Democrats to grab our guns, while the Caucus and the NRA support their caving, while lauding them as pro-gun rights.

White Privilege

This concept is Leftist cover for building resentment against whites in America and around the world. Just as radical Marxist South Africans are planning to expropriate the wealth and land of white South Africans, so in America the crescendo of attacks on whites, mostly by educated, white, self-haters, is buidling anti-Caucasian or reverse racism.

Like anti-Semitism, and anti-individualism, anti-whitism will lead to genocide and race war against whites in the coming years. We had better stay alert, armed and united because first they come for our guns, and then they will come for us. If I was a South African white, I would feared being murdered by the majority of color, not unlike the killing of Christians by Muslims around the Middle East.

2/2/19 Gun Rally at the Minnesota Capitol

2/2/19: I just attended the MGR gun rally at the State Capitol Rotunda in St. Paul. It was a peaceful, if enthusiastic, raucous politically rally by 500 gun-toters.
Several are the observations that I would like to make.
First, we are having an effect. Ben Dorr refers to his members as the largest grassroots army in Minnesota and we may yet be able to turn the tide, against universal background checks and red-flag legislation at the Legislature. It will be an uphill battle.
Second, the Dorr Brothers pointed out what Mark Levin made me understand a couple years ago: The Right in America is populated by timid pansies that tepidly fight for gun rights, or whatever is the conservative cause. Republican RINO politicians are weak and swamp creatures.
Pelosi in Washington and the House Democratic members here from the first day of the new session hit the ground running to advance their radical gun-control agenda. They are fighting fiercely and with courage and boldness to advance their agenda and the politicians keep their promises to deliver gun control to their followers and financial backers. They are fearless, united and dedicated. They are fanatics and energized and focus with purpose: destroy America, bring financial ruination to its citizens, disarm the populace and slam Ameitopian despotism on the people. Their agenda is immoral and awful but they are eager to see it completed because it means their addiction to power will be fulfilled, and that is a most alluring temptation to cave to.
Our tepid, RINO, doublespeaking Republican do not say what they mean, and promise what they should promise, and then work to meet those promises once in St. Paul or Washington. Ben demands that politicians say yes when they mean yes and say no when they mean no.
Our Republicans our divided, tired, low energy, and do not fight hard. Daudt of the Minnesota House did not do Stand Your Ground or Constitutional Carry, so he lost his majority after four years and we have one helluva mess.
McConnell and Ryan did not push these two bills in Congress the last couple of years, so we gained not positive gun rights there when we have majorities, so with Feinstein and Pelosi proposing radical gun control at the federal level, we are back to playing defense. When in power the Left gains huge gains, and when out of power, they still gain ground. How, because the Republicans and the Right on all levels of government are passive, career-politicians that just get rich and complacent, and stay forever, not serving their conservative constituents, paying lip service for what they were supposed to do when there.
Third, the NRA, now a relatively compromised, sold-out, team-player part of the Republican swamp Establishment in Washington is promoting Red-Flag legislation, and endorsing anti-gun RINOS like Mark Rubio, running interference for him and other Republican gun-grabbers, and providing them with cover with deceived gun owners and gun-lovers while working with the gun-grabbing Left, or at least not pushing a pro-gun agenda, or offering more than a token resistance against the anti-gun legislative agenda.
In Minnesota Paul Gazelka, Republican Majority Leader is for universal background checks and Red-Flag legislation. He and the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus are running cover and interference for conservative and Republican gun-grabbers at the Legislature.
As a militant union steward, more tepid, sold-out stewards worked with my tepid union and Management to stab me in the back and sell me out, all while bragging about all they did for the workers.
Fourth, this brings me to my fourth point and conclusion about elites that rule the masses as the incestuous relationship between the mainstream media, elected officials, big business, billionaires and the treacherous, faithless Chamber of Commerce that make the laws on state and federal levels, conspire and lie and cover for each other to keep the masses down, ignorant and suppressed.
First the right to bear arms will be taken from us. Then the other rights and civil liberties will fall, and then hard tyranny will crush as while we are defenseless, cowed and disarmed.
Real change must come from the bottom up. Ben notes that we cannot be nice and stoop to kiss the ring or feet of these politicians. We must be aggressive, in their faces and hunt them down to protect our liberties, especially the right to bear arms.
Fifth, as an Aristotelian ethical moderate that believe that the middle is the way, how can I be so militant about gun rights, with absolutely no compromise on gun rights, and yet be ethically consistent and not hypocritical about our gun rights militancy?
First, the polar opposition of gun-control and gun rights is not a morally neutral set of contraries. If the contrast is between being too tight or too spendthrift with one's money, moderation is advisable that one lives well and enjoys the finer things and luxuries as long as one lives within one's budget, gives 10% to the church and charity, and puts away 15% for retirement.
The RINOS, like Gazelka with his emphasis on safety over liberty, and doing what works (doing gun control while lying and assuring us that he is pro-gun), and the Leftist gun-hating Democrats, who try to talk about being reasonable, moderate and using common sense on beginning to legislate away our gun rights a piece at a time, are, when exposed, are stealth creepers, employing incremental legislation over time--or like Pelsoi now revealed as grabbing big chunks of gun rights out front and openly--can be shown for what they really are: pure gun-grabbers, vicious infighters, gun-haters loathing guns and gun owners, working tirelessly and continuously to push their agenda: gun confiscation and bringing socialist tyranny to America. Disarm the people and patriots, and the Communist state police will have a much easier time getting into power, terrorizing us and staying forever in power.
These no-compromise fanatics are pure evil, and to compromise with them would have been like sending money and guns to Hitler in World War II.
The very aggressive, no-compromise approach of the Dorrs and Minnesota Gun Rights is no compromise based on principle. We stand for liberty and the Left and te Gun-grabbers stand for tyranny and subjugation of the American people. I am for moderation and compromise, but not with foolish, evil, power-hungry, uncompromising socialist fanatics on the march to end America as we know it, and to put its people and liberty down and in harms way forever.
