Someone Trying to Take Our Guns, Oh My

One of our favored anti-Bush anti-Zionist anti-neocon cabal sites, WRH, linked to an article by Ground_Control. Mr. Ground is what you get when you mix a rightwinger's gun scare with a leftwinger's sky is always falling – or what I call a "scare white people winger." The Ruby Ridgers, the Minutemen protecting us from Mexicans, and the type who hang around abortion clinics and KKK meetings, etc. It's usually god and guns that keep their attention the longest.

Mr. Ground says " … school shootings which have occurred, can be attributed to an organized attempt to influence anti-gun legislation. In some cases, the timing of the shootings coincided with pro-gun, "conceal and carry" measures, expected to be passed in the states where the shootings took place."

Or … to Mr. Ground and the site he links to, "they" somehow manipulate school kids to commit mass murder in the classroom via the "Manchurian" plotters. The evil plotters somehow induce Americans to place their children on drugs for learning disorders, then dad buys the kid guns as a "hobby" and at some point anti-gun plotters slip the kid a pharmaceutical "cocktail" that (no pun intended) triggers a massacre in math class. The shooter is a victim of the "Zionist" plotters - plotting "against our right to keep and bear arms." Intentional school shootings push Joe Law-Abiding that much closer to losing his guns. Get it? I've heard some wild excuses for poor parenting but this has to be the most insane.

Think that logic would fly if Black school boys began Glocking down classmates in the library? The Manchurian plotters made me do it excuse. I wonder if Mr. G. would buy the idea that the D.C. snipers, ex-military John Allen Muhammad and 17-year-old John Lee Malvo, were also brainwashed and slipped a mickey for murder? Or do "they" only do Manchuria on white folks?

Mr. Ground writes : "The names of the principal anti-Second Amendment legislators -- Feinstein, Metzenbaum, Schumer -- tell part of the story". Hmmmm, do those sound j-e-w-i-s-h? He continues : "This is the same group of people which is simultaneously lobbying, to take away our First Amendment Rights also, under the guise of ficticious, hate crimes legislation." Gotta say it, only stupid white guys could honestly believe hate crimes are fiction.

The caterwauling against our "right to keep and bear arms" has nothing to do with disarming Joe America and conquering America from within (boo!). Too many of us are too well-armed, legally and illegally. In my State, the legal gun toting (ownership) limit for an individual is 51 guns. Many folks are over the limit but Uncle Scam doesn't know. Millions of weapons are sold privately and passed around for years without government knowledge and tracking.

There's big money in domestic arms dealing and sales. Just yesterday I was at a weapons fleamarket. Swords, knives, and an assortment of legal hurts were available. When I asked Joe Redneck why no guns today he gave me a windy speech about government regulations, taxes, licensing, etc. being tougher to meet (pay for). He referred to the government as the "Federal mafia." Good term. Extortion by law.

Now, I love a good conspiracy as much as the next wingnut, and I agree Zionism controls more than is healthy and/or naturally probable in American politics and culture. But Mr. Ground_Control, with his head in the ground, is none too subtle with a racist sky is falling on unarmed white men ideology, a heightened fear for "average, law-abiding citizens unable to defend themselves" due to Zionist plotters and folks whose surnames include 'stein, baum, or schu.

What the gun-control crowd is doing is kissing the other cheek of the government/corporate ass, the little lip spot marked 'arms manufacturers owe the government.' The tit for tat I've mentioned numerous times before. It's necessary Americans jump through more hoops to obtain, own, sell, buy a weapon simply because each hoop has another pay-gov regulation/fee attached. Or, in economics - REVENUE. Mo' money to the coffers of the corporatocracy.
