The Truth About Online Firearms Sales

Almost every day we hear the media’s talking heads and politicians allude to unregulated firearms sales over the internet.  


Fact:  It is legal to purchase a firearm online.  However that is where it ends.   By federal law, the online dealer cannot ship the purchase to the buyer.


Federal law mandates that the firearm be shipped to a Federally Licensed (FFL) dealer in the state where the buyer resides.  The FFL conducts Federal and State background checks and performs any waiting period requirements.


Contrary to what many want you to believe there is no Online loophole  to bypass the legal requirements for purchasing a firearm.

A Wyoming rancher's summary of the Muller Report and Democrats' hapless ongoing efforts in one sentence:

"WHILE WE RECOGNIZE THAT THE SUBJECT DID NOT ACTUALLY STEAL ANY HORSES, HE IS OBVIOUSLY GUILTY OF TRYING TO RESIST BEING HANGED FOR IT."

He Fights

by Evan Sayet
My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum.  They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.”  Here’s my answer:
We Right-thinking people have tried dignity.  There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency.  We tried statesmanship.  Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as John McCain?  We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney?  And the results were always the same.
This is because, while we were playing by the rules of dignity, collegiality and propriety, the Left has been, for the past 60 years, engaged in a knife fight where the only rules are those of Saul Alinsky and the Chicago mob.
I don’t find anything “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper” about Barack Obama’s lying about what went down on the streets of Ferguson in order to ramp up racial hatreds because racial hatreds serve the Democratic Party.  I don’t see anything “dignified” in lying about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi and imprisoning an innocent filmmaker to cover your tracks.  I don’t see anything “statesman-like” in weaponizing the IRS to be used to destroy your political opponents and any dissent.  Yes, Obama was “articulate” and “polished” but in no way was he in the least bit “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper.
The Left has been engaged in a war against America since the rise of the Children of the ‘60s.   To them, it has been an all-out war where nothing is held sacred and nothing is seen as beyond the pale.  It has been a war they’ve fought with violence, the threat of violence, demagoguery and lies from day one – the violent take-over of the universities – till today.
The problem is that, through these years, the Left has been the only side fighting this war.  While the Left has been taking a knife to anyone who stands in their way, the Right has continued to act with dignity, collegiality and propriety.
With Donald Trump, this all has come to an end.  Donald Trump is America’s first wartime president in the Culture War.
During wartime, things like “dignity” and “collegiality” simply aren’t the most essential qualities one looks for in their warriors.  Ulysses Grant was a drunk whose behavior in peacetime might well have seen him drummed out of the Army for conduct unbecoming.  Had Abraham Lincoln applied the peacetime rules of propriety and booted Grant, the Democrats might well still be holding their slaves today.   Lincoln rightly recognized that, “I cannot spare this man.  He fights.”
General George Patton was a vulgar-talking, son-of-a-bitch.  In peacetime, this might have seen him stripped of rank.  But, had Franklin Roosevelt applied the normal rules of decorum, then Hitler and the Socialists would barely be five decades into their thousand-year Reich. 
Trump is fighting.  And what’s particularly delicious is that, like Patton standing over the battlefield as his tanks obliterated Rommel’s, he’s shouting, “You magnificent bastards, I read your book!”  That is just the icing on the cake, but it’s wonderful to see that not only is Trump fighting, he’s defeating the Left using their own tactics.
That book is Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals – a book so essential to the Liberals’ war against America that it is and was the playbook for the entire Obama administration and the subject of Hillary Clinton’s senior thesis.   It is a book of such pure evil, that, just as the rest of us would dedicate our book to those we most love or those to whom we are most indebted, Alinsky dedicated his book to Lucifer.
Trump’s tweets may seem rash and unconsidered but, in reality, he is doing exactly what Alinsky suggested his followers do. 
First, instead of going after “the fake media” – and they are so fake that they have literally gotten every single significant story of the past 60 years not just wrong, but diametrically opposed to the truth, from the Tet Offensive to Benghazi, to what really happened on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri – Trump isolated CNN.  He made it personal.  Then, just as Alinsky suggests, he employs ridicule which Alinsky described as “the most powerful weapon of all.”

Everyone gets that it’s not just CNN – in fact, in a world where Al Sharpton and Rachel Maddow, Paul Krugman and Nicholas Kristof are people of influence and whose “reporting” is in no way significantly different than CNN’s – CNN is just a piker.
Most importantly, Trump’s tweets have put CNN in an untenable and unwinnable position.  With Trump’s ability to go around them, they cannot simply stand pat.  They need to respond.  This leaves them with only two choices.
They can either “go high” (as Hillary would disingenuously declare of herself and the fake news would disingenuously report as the truth) and begin to honestly and accurately report the news or they can double-down on their usual tactics and hope to defeat Trump with twice their usual hysteria and demagoguery. 

The problem for CNN (et al.) with the former is that, if they were to start honestly reporting the news, that would be the end of the Democratic Party they serve.  It is nothing but the incessant use of fake news (read: propaganda) that keeps the Left alive. 

Imagine, for example, if CNN had honestly and accurately reported then-candidate Barack Obama’s close ties to foreign terrorists (Rashid Khalidi), domestic terrorists (William Ayers), the mafia (Tony Rezko) or the true evils of his spiritual mentor, Jeremiah Wright’s, church. 

Imagine if they had honestly and accurately conveyed the evils of the Obama administration’s weaponizing of the IRS to be used against their political opponents or his running of guns to the Mexican cartels or the truth about the murder of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the Obama administration’s cover-up.

This makes “going high” a non-starter for CNN.  This leaves them no other option but to ratchet up the fake news, conjuring up the next “nothing burger” and devoting 24 hours a day to hysterical rants about how it’s “worse than Nixon.”
This, obviously, is what CNN has chosen to do.  The problem is that, as they become more and more hysterical, they become more and more obvious.  Each new effort at even faker news than before and faker “outrage” only makes that much more clear to any objective observer that Trump is and always has been right about the fake news media. 
And, by causing their hysteria, Trump has forced them into numerous, highly embarrassing and discrediting mistakes.   Thus, in their desperation, they have lowered their standards even further and run with articles so clearly fake that, even with the liberal (lower case “l”) libel laws protecting the media, they’ve had to wholly retract and erase their stories repeatedly. 
Their flailing at Trump has even seen them cross the line into criminality, with CNN using their vast corporate fortune to hunt down a private citizen for having made fun of them in an Internet meme.  This threat to “dox” – release of personal information to encourage co-ideologists to visit violence upon him and his family -- a political satirist was chilling in that it clearly wasn’t meant just for him.  If it were, there would have been no reason for CNN to have made their “deal” with him public. 
Instead, CNN – playing by “Chicago Rules” – was sending a message to any and all: dissent will not be tolerated. 
This heavy-handed and hysterical response to a joke on the Internet has backfired on CNN, giving rise to only more righteous ridicule.
So, to my friends on the Left – and the #NeverTrumpers as well -- do I wish we lived in a time when our president could be “collegial” and “dignified” and “proper”?  Of course I do.   These aren’t those times.  This is war.  And it’s a war that the Left has been fighting  without opposition for the past 50 years.\
So, say anything you want about this president – I get it, he can be vulgar, he can be crude, he can be undignified at times.  I don’t care.  I can’t spare this man.  He fights.

Enigmas

(1)  Isn't it weird that in America our flag and our culture offend so many people but our benefits don't?
 
(2)  Why does the federal government ask U.S. citizens to pay back student loans when illegal aliens are receiving a free education?
 
(3)  Only in America are legal citizens labeled "racists" and "Nazis" but illegal aliens are called "Dreamers."
 
(4)  Liberals say, "If confiscating all guns saves just one life, it's worth it."  Well then if deporting all illegals saves just one life, wouldn't that be worth it?
 
(5)  I can't quite figure out how you can proudly wave the flag of another country but consider it punishment to be sent back there.
 
(6)  William F. Buckley said:  "Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other points of view and are then shocked and offended when they discover there are other points of view."
 
(7)  Joseph Sobran said:  "'Need' now means wanting someone else's money.  'Greed' means wanting to keep your own.  'Compassion' is when a politician arranges the transfer."
 
(8)  Florida has had 119 hurricanes since 1850, but some people still insist the last one was due to climate change.

Food for though: 
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian."
Henry Ford

The "Magic Wand"


Remember Obama telling us that 2% GDP is the new NORM?

During the 2016 Presidential campaign, Obama proclaimed that Donald Trump had no plans to improve the economy and bring back manufacturing jobs. Obama also stated that Trump would need a "Magic Wand" to keep any of his promises.

Well, Mr. Trump must have found a "Magic Wand" because he is keeping his promises and
The new NORM is hovering around 4% GDP!

Civil War II

by Dr. Jack D. Minzey
How do civil wars happen?
Two or more sides disagree on who runs the country. And they can't settle the question through elections because they don't even agree that elections are how you decide who's in charge. That's the basic issue here. Who decides who runs the country? When you hate each other but accept the election results, you have a country. When you stop accepting election results, you have a countdown to a civil war.

The Mueller investigation is about removing President Trump from office and overturning the results of an election. We all know that. But it's not the\first time they've done this. The first time a Republican president was elected this century, they said he didn't really win. The Supreme Court gave him the election. There’s a pattern here.

What do sure odds of the Democrats rejecting the next Republican president really mean? It means they don't accept the results of any election that they don't win. It means they don't believe that transfers of power in this country are determined by elections.

That's a civil war.

There's no shooting.  At least not unless you count the attempt to kill a bunch of Republicans at a charity baseball game practice. But the Democrats have rejected our system of government.

This isn't dissent. It's not disagreement. You can hate the other party. You can think they're the worst thing that ever happened to the country.  But then you work harder to win the next election. When you consistently reject the results of elections that you don't win, what you want is a dictatorship.  Your very own dictatorship.

The only legitimate exercise of power in this country, according to Democrats, is its own.  Whenever Republicans exercise power, it's inherently illegitimate. The Democrats lost Congress. They lost the White House. So what did they do? They began trying to run time that a Federal judge issues an order saying that the President of the United States can't scratch his own back without his say so, that's the civil war. 

Our system of government is based on the constitution, but that's not the system that runs this country. The Democrat's system is that any part of
Government that it runs gets total and unlimited power over the country.

If the Democrats are in the White House, then the president can do anything. And I mean anything. He can have his own amnesty for illegal aliens. He can fine you for not having health insurance. His power is unlimited. He's a dictator.

But when Republicans get into the White House, suddenly the President can't do anything. He isn't even allowed to undo the illegal alien amnesty that his predecessor illegally invented. A Democrat in the White House has 'discretion' to completely decide every aspect of immigration policy. A .the game is played.  That’s how our country is run. Sad but true, although the left hasn't yet won that particular fight. 

When a Democrat is in the White House states aren't even allowed to enforce immigration law. But when a Republican is in the White House, states can create their own immigration laws. Under Obama, a state wasn't allowed to go to the bathroom without asking permission. But under Trump, Jerry Brown can go around saying that California is an independent republic and sign treaties with other countries.

The Constitution has something to say about that. 

Whether it's Federal or State, Executive, or Legislative or Judiciary, the left moves power around to run the country. If it controls an institution, then that institution is suddenly the supreme power in the land. This is what I call a moving dictatorship. 

Donald Trump has caused the Shadow Government to come out of hiding: Professional government is a guild. Like medieval guilds. You can't serve in if you're not a member. If you haven't been indoctrinated into its
arcane rituals. If you aren't in the club. And Trump isn't in the club. He brought in a bunch of people with him who also are NOT in the club.

Now we're seeing what the pros do when amateurs try to walk in on them. They spy on them, they investigate them and they send them to jail. They use the tools of power to bring them down.

That's not a free country.

It's not a free country when FBI agents who support Hillary take out an 'insurance policy' against Trump winning the election. It's not a free country when Obama officials engage in massive unmasking of the  opposition. It's not a free country when the media responds to the other guy winning by trying to ban the conservative media that supported him from social media. It's not a free country when all of the above collude together to overturn an election because the guy who wasn't supposed to win... WON.   

Have no doubt. We are in a civil war.

This war is between conservative volunteer government and a leftist Democrat professional government.

I Left The LEFT Because---


My #walkaway journey began on 9/11. I was a vehement Leftist at the time, totally indoctrinated through college and my own naive arrogance. After 9/11, I wanted answers and started seeking truth. I started listening to Dennis Prager on the radio, and even though I disagreed with almost everything he said and often yelled back at the radio, I kept listening. I even called in and argued with him. Years passed. I got married, had children, and starting losing my naivety and ignorance. It was gradual and took about 10 years, but Dennis Prager's rational, kind, and common sense wisdom broke through the brainwash. I am now a Precinct Leader and GOP electoral delegate in my state, and I am homeschooling our four children so they don't have to undergo the same indoctrination I did. I am happier, more grateful, more fulfilled, and more generous than I ever was when I bought into the Leftist lies. 

I left the Left because I believe values and behavior matter far more than race, gender, and class. Because I have far more in common with Thomas Sowell than Nancy Pelosi, no matter what color our skin or what's between our legs. 

I left the Left because I live in the freest, most diverse, most blessed nation in the history of humanity, and I refuse to allow ignorant ingrates to crap all over it. 

I left the Left because I wanted to fight REAL human evils and not made up hysterias. 

I left the left because I believe intellectual diversity is the only true diversity, and that to silence ideas you disagree with is fascist. 

I left the Left because to encourage people to think they are victims is to condemn them to a life of unhappiness and misery. 

I left the Left because men and masculinity are AMAZING, beautiful, and necessary to a good society. They are not predators, and I am not a victim. 

I left the Left because I studied history, and learned that capitalism is the ONLY economy that has ever created wealth and lifted millions out of poverty. 

I left the Left because I stopped asking "what FEELS good?" and started asking "what DOES good?" 

I'm so excited about this movement. Almost all the major institutions in America are owned by the Left: Hollywood, academia, and the media. But, the last election showed me that there ARE those who can see through the bullshit, who don't care if they are called names and hated, and who understand that the fight to save our country is WORTH IT.
