TMM is the owner, editor, and principal author at The Minuteman, a competitive shooter, and staff member for Boomershoot. Even in his free time he’s merging his love and knowledge of computers and technology with his love of firearms.
Many know his private name and information however due to the current political climate, many are distancing themselves due to the abandonment of Due Process.
So I recently got a check in the mail from a company, that shall remain nameless, for services rendered.
You see, said company has a company calendar that is sent to customers and given to employees. Well they needed pictures to use with the calendar and they selected two I took in 2011 for inclusion in the calendar. Evidently they needed more winter photographs.
I really was hoping they wanted to use this one though:
The prints across the field are Joe‘s, he was at the Taj as this picture was taken. Who cares, I’m getting paid cash money for snapping a picture, that’s AWESOME! Now to master the art of using Photoshop.
Now I laughed and chuckled, I would have still laughed if someone had done it to a Republican headquarters. What got me thinking though was the following statement from the County Democratic Chair.
Respectful disagreements, lets talk about this word respectful. Those on your side of the debate have been nothing but rude, bigoted, and down right evil. How evil?
Now supposedly the union isn’t supporting the teacher but I think that’s mainly because it’s obvious how bad the teacher stepped in it in this instance. Moving forward though we have the bus driver who informed a young man that his mother should have aborted him.
Yup, that’s a real civilized respectful disagreement right there. Especially since this man felt he needed to attack a 12 year old child for his families political views. Bummer the bigot couldn’t pick on someone his own size.
But wait, there’s more! This call for respectful disagreement is also coming from the same party who is so tied into the unions they conscript their support from union membership.
How is that for a respectful disagreement? Force support for your party by holding a person hostage by keeping them from feeding themselves or their family by tacking on a fine. Now some may claim that you don’t have to join the union. That only holds true if you’re in a right to work state. You could always go find a job elsewhere that doesn’t have a union, but often the union will do everything to get a monopoly on the industry to force membership.
Moving even further forward, lets do a quick look back into history shall we?
So they did this to themselves, which works well when you can control the narrative and say it was the other side. It fails when you’re minions get caught. Now there was a window that recently broke in Alabama and again the Dems ran off claiming people were shooting at them, mainly the Republicans and independents that can’t have a respectful disagreement. Lets look at what really happened.
However, now there are reports that not only is the robocalling giving out false dates to votes, but an Obama door-to-door campaign targeting seniors in a county that went Republican is also giving out the false dates, I’m not so sure this is an accident.
Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three or more times is enemy action. Well bad news for the opposition, I don’t believe in coincidence. Even then the robocalls and door to door mistakes are truly two separate incidents for a count of three. It is well known and common knowledge the date of the election and informing people in mass of a incorrect date, especially in a county likely to vote against you is just wrong, deceitful, and again not an example of someone engaging in a “respectful disagreement”. Yeah, with regards to her use of the word respectful…
Then again, a party whose membership consists of people using the power of the state to rob from others to give to themselves wouldn’t really understand respect if it walked up and slapped them in the face. Respectful would be letting people keep what they had earned.
Now why would I bring this up, while I am currently doing my best to be respectful to those of differing opinions? Their right to have me remain respectful ends when they’re no longer respectful to me. Even more than that, they have no right to my respect when they are taking my property and work for their own because honestly, where’s the respect in that?
Now, with his comments about taking away the incentives for success and people losing interest in working hard in mind. Lets look at another video:
Think about this for a second. They’re penalizing success and there are large groups of people who instead of working live off of entitlements from the government. As RobertaX said, we cannot reverse the slope, but we can at least change it to give us some time. Given time we might be able to reverse it.
The ACA is going to have some serious repercussions that many probably don’t even realize. Especially in large parts of the voter base that is most likely to support Obama. What am I talking about? College internships are liable to get screwed.
There is no way a company is going to bother paying for benefits for an intern, doubly so since usually they are on school or their parents healthcare. So now when you’re working 40 hour weeks in the summer they’ll have to provide care of face a fine. Well instead they’ll limit you to 29 hour work weeks.
This is significant because during the summer I regularly worked 40+ hour weeks to pull overtime to save up for my upcoming semesters. Now instead students will have to incur more debt because they will be prevented from earning money to pay for school. Wait, who is it that subsidizes most of the loans, which are exempt from most laws governing debt, that’s right the government.
That’s right folks, the government passed legislation that will force more people to take loans and pay them interest. Nice huh? Don’t worry though, they’re from the government and they’re here to help…
Ultimately though Bill Whittle nails it with this one:
The money quote:
The left has these same failed ideas from about a 20 year window at the end of the 19th century. That have never worked, don’t work now, and will never work. And this clinging to an ossified discredited model based on envy and resentment has killed no less than 100 million people. And many people call this progressive as they cover themselves in glory, but not in the blood or the failure.
It may be the recent history of the 20th century, however I think it’s certainly in the current path of the future for the United States.
He was arrested though, so why put him on the count? Well he’s an example of why departments drag their feet for the benefit of those who should really be expelled from service.
First up, beware, drama llama within, some of you wont really care about the following post. Anyone just coming into the gun rights community and anyone interested in gun rights should be at least be aware of what follows.
So earlier this week I had a quote of the day from Oleg and the subject of his quote was left intentionally vague. I left it vague because honestly I would rather people not drive traffic to this person or his website. The list of reasons I would rather people not visit this person or provide him traffic is long and distinguished.
If you’re unaware of exactly who I am talking about, Linoge has done a nice and detailed post explaining exactly why this person should not be accepted or welcomed within the community. Now I warned you, the list is extremely long and the post is quite easily labeled an uber-post. The sad thing is, you will notice it is long mainly because the number of transgressions is quite large.
While this person has not personally slighted me, he has slighted people I know, and not just know but some I have a very deep respect for. His solution to polite and civil requests is to just claim what he did is legal, with no accounts for morals or mutual respect. He claims to be a supporter of the Second Amendment but runs his website in the same manner as Joan Peterson.
I do know he has upset a few folks that honestly I would never want to be on the bad side of. Even more importantly, one individual that was upset has done more than any other person to help reclaim and reestablish gun rights in this country. This also doesn’t even touch on his treatment of Emily Miller.
It should be noted that the reason Linoge named both the individual and the blog is to hopefully help with search traffic. The individual in question is quite good at search engine optimization so it is quite difficult to actually dig up information on the grievances he has caused.
Also it should be noted that like Jennifer I have no issue with making money from blogging. Notice I now have an ad on the right again. While there is no way I will ever get rich from this, I would at least like to make it self-sustaining. What I do have a serious problem with though, is taking other people’s work and then attempting to profit off of it.
So please, ignore the troll, shun him like you should, and if he steals your content, blog about it, email him, and contact Linoge to be added to the list. If you’re feeling really frisky, pursue legal action, it is well known he’s making money from the blog, thus off of your work.
At which point I have to start asking the serious question? How did you fall 11 stories while sober? What impaired your judgement to place you in that situation to begin with?
That’s the 4th fall on the Palouse in the past month, the 5th this school year. As I said last time,
Remember these are the “best and brightest” that we send to college. No, I don’t think so anymore. A good majority of those who go to college I think go because they’re too dumb to do anything else.
I am quite interested in hearing his excuse though on this one if alcohol wasn’t a factor.
Comments Off on Quote of the Day – A Girl and Her Gun(10/11/2012)
To be honest I don’t give a flying flip about what I should be able to do or what is fair or any false ideal of not giving the bad guy power. I really only care about what I can do to create a world where I have the best possible chance of A. Avoiding a bad guy situation and B. Surviving it should that not be possible.
[That folks is exactly what it is we’re fighting for. Our opponents often try to twist the truth, as if some how everyone is going to be forced to be given a gun. In reality we want only the choice of the tools at our disposal for option A and B.
While some would say that carrying a firearm doesn’t fall into the option A realm, I beg to differ. There are many incidents where there isn’t even a shot fired to end the encounter. My parents both had experiences where it the threat was enough to unconceal. At the immediate presence of the firearm, the aggressors immediately altered their tune. Not to mention incidents like this.
The fact is carrying a firearm is a choice, it’s a choice that the anti-rights cultists wish we didn’t have. They would rather we live in their world of fear and dependence than stand up independent and strong. That is the exact difference between the pro-rights and anti-rights communities.
Next time someone says you shouldn’t be carrying a gun, ask them, “Why do you want to force people into being a victim? Do you like criminals? Why are you forcing your choices on others?” We know how the attitudes of the cultists make me feel, especially when I hear about people who were made to be a victim in criminal protection zones. They may not have chosen to carry, but ultimately they had that choice made for them anyway, and it makes me very angry.
Interestingly though, as angry as I get, unlike our opponents, I don’t get violent or wish violence upon others. -B]
Honestly I hope this is a joke, but I don’t think it was. Also worthy of rememberence is not only the fact that she can vote, but she’s also probably reproducing.
