In Stock

Once upon a time ago, about the time I was posting the ASCII text versions of The Resister on Usenet, I bought an AK-47 chambered in 5.56 NATO.  It had the thumb hole stock mandated at the time by our masters in Washington.  As a former combat rifleman I took it upon myself to properly zero in the sights on the weapon.  As I was doing this at the Moon Valley range down in Eden Prairie I was rudely interrupted.  It appeared that a scraggly young man wanted to sell me a folding stock for the AK-47.  I said no.  He repeated his offer.  I repeated my refusal.  Eventually he got the point.  First, I actually had no interest in a folding stock for the rifle.  The folding stock for the Ak-47 series rifle is copied from the MP-38/MP-40 series machine pistols issued by the Wehrmacht.  They are inherently unstable and were used both by the Wehrmacht and the Soviets to shorten the weapon for carriage within an aircraft or armored vehicle. An acceptable trade off for them but not for me.  Second. folding stocks at the time were illegal.  I was not about to ruin a weapon by installing an inferior stock simply for the sake of disobeying our self appointed masters.  The proper way to deal with a master is to air out his head.  By his demeanor and his insistence on selling the stock to my unwilling self I concluded that this fellow was a stooge for the BATF.  I refused to fall into the trap.  A simple bit of common sense can go a long way.

Punishing a man for an act he did not commit is unjust. Imprisoning a man for speaking the truth is tyrannical. Disarming the citizens -- who are the sovereign authority of the nation -- is treason.  To say anything more would require the extensive use of barracks language.  There's no such thing as "common sense gun control" those who are in favor of banning firearms are enemies of Humanity and should be treated in the Nuremberg style, from the neck until dead.  And there's no limit to what a Statist can do to a disarmed victim.

Bad things happen when you try to save money.

Gripe

I'm surrounded by people who don't care as long they can collect their paychecks.

Thoughts For The Day

A moron once called me a murderer.  I was a member of the National Rifle Association at the time and was attending the annual meeting and she was leaning out of a car window and yelled at me as I was walking on the sidewalk in Downtown Minneapolis to the meeting.

So how many people (apart from old school Klansmen) has the NRA killed?

NONE.

How many people have Marxists (who took power from an elected government in November of 1917) killed?

Over 3000 a day on average.

And remember, killing a Marxist isn't an act of murder, it's an act of self defense.

Book Review

Here's a repost of a very important book review originally published in THE RESISTER.  If you haven't read it, you should.

BOOK REVIEW
-----------

The Ominous Parallels--The End of Freedom in America. Leonard Peikoff. New York: NAL Penguin, Inc., 1982. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 83-60247. ix + 316 pages plus references and index.. Soft cover $10.00.


Reviewed by Red Barchetta

This book asks: "What caused Nazi Germany?" Unlike lesser attempts to explain that blood bath, The Ominous Parallels answers: "The same philosophies that are prevalent in the United States of America." Dr. Peikoff argues convincingly that in both countries the intellectual, educational and political leadership share, explicitly or implicitly, the same core ideologies. These ideologies submit that reality is subjective--a malleable illusion; emotions are the proper guide to human action--especially the emotions of race and the tribe, which cannot be understood by outsiders; self-sacrifice for the sake of others should usurp a man's own desires--and the state must take any necessary action to ensure that sacrifice. These ideologies demand that "individual selfishness" does not obstruct the path of "the public interest."

From Part One, Chapter One: " 'To be a socialist,' says Goebbels, 'is to submit the I to the thou; socialism is sacrificing the individual to the whole.' By this definition, the Nazis practiced what they preached. They practiced it at home and then abroad. No one can claim that they did not sacrifice enough individuals."

The underlying theme in The Ominous Parallels is how philosophy shapes cultures, and reading this book, it is difficult to escape a feeling of hopeless dread; of being caught in racing floodwaters and swept madly toward a destruction you are helpless to prevent. Given the theme of this nation's descent into fascism, and Dr. Peikoff's uncompromising method of proving it, that is the proper effect.

The conclusion of The Ominous Parallels is not that we are helplessly destined to go to the same lengths down the same road as Germany. The conclusion is that it is time for us to choose whether or not we will; that if we fail to consciously decide, the decision will be made for us. Contrary to the bleating of irrationalists then or now, it is only a coherent philosophy of reason and individual rights which will give us the means to choose not to become our own slaughterhouse.

Dr. Peikoff shows that such a philosophy is not prevalent in the United States because, although this nation was unique in being founded on philosophic ideals (rather than arbitrary land-grabs and tribal warfare), it was ultimately lacking a coherent detailed formulation of those ideals, as well as the Aristotelian philosophers to create one. Independence from Europe was only won physically--not ideologically. "The land of poets and philosophers was brought down by its poets and philosophers," says Peikoff. The resulting bowel movement of docile Nazi sheep who obeyed their Fuhrer because they obeyed their philosophers could indeed be us, for their philosophers--their pragmatists and Kants, their Hegels and Marxes--are ours
by adoption.

We do have one trump card, "...the philosophical breach between the American people and the intellectuals." In Germany, the intellectuals and the people were united in ideology, feeling at home in their country and with each other. This, says Peikoff, is not yet the case in America. Peikoff's book will help to keep it that way.

History Lesson

Bad guys always present themselves as good guys.  If you're not attuned to this fact you'll be always deceived by them.

Name Calling

Calling Hillary Clinton a treasonous piece of excrement are insults to traitors and pieces of excrement.

Thought For The Day

If L. Ron Hubbard and David Miscavige behaved decently the Church of Scientology wouldn't be in deep trouble.

Prediction

Even though I'm a long standing opponent of all forms of Collectivism, including National Socialism, I will be denounced by one or more members of the Mainstream Media as a Nazi.

Where Do These People Come From?

Hugh Hewitt reported on his blog:

Today, on the floor of the United States Senate, Barbara Boxer referred to the Madrid bombings as a "rail accident." Honest. A rail accident. Boxer is a Senate accident. What an embarrassment.

I would suppose that dumbass Senator Boxer believes that Pearl Harbor was an aviation mishap.

I once told the fellow who hired me at FLS (they did telephone fundraising for the GOP) that I'd "eat my gun" before I would do anything to help the Democratic Party.  The fellow at FLS thought I was a bit over the top at the time.

Thought For The Day

Oppression is oppression regardless of who does it.

Reading Material

For the OSA goons reading this: L. Ron Hubbard was a con artist and you've been conned.

Problem

The problem with evolution is that it doesn't act fast enough.

Thought For The Day

The use of certain words is unavoidable when you write bad characters.

Explaination

Why does evil exist?

We may not like it, but the members of the SS, the Church of Scientology, the Democratic Party, and the Muslim Brotherhood, believed they were good people and doing virtuous acts, even though many of those acts were kidnappings, murders, along with oppression in general.  Apart from a handful of psychopaths the ones who carried out the Holocaust were under the illusion that what they were doing was for the good of the German nation.  And every effort was made to construct and maintain that illusion.  Evil people seriously believe they are good.  The mustache twirling villain is essentially fictional.

We make fun of Islamic Rage Boy and he believes that he's a good guy, but in objective reality he's  clearly evil.

Les On Censorship

The one word that tyrants, and those who seek to become tyrants, do not want to hear is the word "NO."  Even to suggest that a person has the right to say NO is the equivalent of speaking a death sentence to tyrants and wanna-be tyrants.

The Problem With Evolution

The problem with evolution is that it sucks for the children.

Climate Change

Let's look at the concept of climate change, the terrestrial biosphere is a dynamic environment within a dynamic universe.  Changes of climate happened naturally and will continue to happen naturally.  There's simply no way around it.  The idea that human action is the single cause of climate change is absolute nonsense.  It's nothing more than an excuse for the enlargement of political power and adversarial political actions against the productive people of this nation.  It's nothing more than an excuse for tyranny.

Just A Reminder

The Democratic Party is effectively an industrial scale version of the Manson Family with postgraduate degrees and paramilitary swat teams instead of LSD and old kitchen knives.

About Climate Change

We live in a dynamic part of a dynamic universe.  The change in the Terrestrial climate may have effected the evolution of mankind.  And there's nothing we can do about it.  That’s right.  Climate change is a fundamental fact of nature.  It has occurred naturally, and it'll happen NATURALLY, and there's nothing we can do about it.  The demand for the unlimited power to stop climate change is pure nonsense.   It's also an act of pure tyranny and therefore intolerable to us.

Thought For The Day

Bootleggers can't compete with a liquor store.

Drug Lords can't compete with a pharmacy.

Gun runners can't compete with a firearms dealer.

Gun Control never works.

Self Contradiction

The elected official or the political activist who declares that the ordinary citizen doesn't need a personal firearm has demonstrated the fact that the ordinary citizen does in fact need a personal firearm.

Accountability

A state without a functioning mechanism of accountability, and a means of peacefully removing those who are unfit to govern, will eventually fall into corruption and a state of tyranny.

Thought For The Day

To the parasites, like the Democratic Party, power over the productive citizens of this nation is necessary for their very existence.

In short, and I simply cannot emphasize this enough: POWER IS LIFE.

Any restraint on that power, be it the freedom of speech and press, the rights to self defense and to bear arms, is a danger to the parasite's continued existence.

I would expect the Democratic Party to band together and claim that the "will of the people" in some way trumps the Constitution, the terms under which the Federal Government was established. Nancy Pelosi and her closest supporters apparently believe that are on the "Progressive" version of a holy mission. To quit is to negate the self-concept that they have adopted for themselves. I absolutely believe that the act of surrendering power is literally unthinkable for them.

Quite frankly I really think that she would rather die than surrender power.

Thoughts For The Day

If you want to avoid tyranny then governmental power has to be restricted or forbidden.

 On this day in 1945 the surviving leader of the Third Reich surrendered to and Anglo-American Alliance thus ending the Second World War in Europe.  Unfortunately this wasn't the end of National Socialism as the De-Aryanized form of it continues in exist in the United States to this day.  Hatred of the other has been practiced by partisans of The Left for years.

Question

I have a question for leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement.  What are you going to do when your victims are marching down the street yelling "HELL NO, WE DON'T OWE!"?

Most ancestors of Caucasians emigrated to the United States after the Civil War, as a result Caucasians owe no reparations for the crime of chattel slavery.

All lives matter, not just the black ones.  Everyone practiced chattel slavery not just what was called the white race.  The price for chattel slavery in the United States has already been paid in blood during the Civil War.  There’s only one race on the planet Earth, the Human Race.

Thought For The Day

The Maginot Line worked but Wehrmacht went around.

History Lesson

The Founders of our Republic solved the problem of the abuse of certain powers by forbidding the powers of censorship, religious persecution, and public disarmament.

This is too simple for certain members of The Democratic Party.

Question

What is censorship?

It's the forcible prevention of the transmission of information. In the context of an adversarial situation, such as the invasion of a Free Nation by a Socialist State, the act of censorship is morally mandatory.  Such an invader has no more right to information about the defending forces than a biker gang has to the location of your wife or daughters.  In the context of a civil society, valid information concerning those holding or seeking public office and their goals and beliefs, is necessary in order for members of the electorate to make a valid decision when they exercise their authority.  To vote correctly, the voter needs to know the truth about office seekers and their beliefs and personal conduct.   Those who must suppress the transmission of valid information, such as corrupt office holders who are acting through their lieutenants, or through the local campus communist goon squad, are harmful to the individual citizens and the political community as a whole.  Those who attempt to practice censorship in a civil society are enemies of that society and must be identified and dealt with as such.

History

The Pledge Of Allegiance  originated as a collectivist voodoo ceremony.

Thoughts For The Day

A functional government requires criticism, the act of censorship nullifies a functional government.

If the United States had a functional government the proponents of censorship and public disarmament would be seen and treated as the enemies of humanity that they actually are.

Quote Of The Day

“THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM. You can write that down in your book in great big letters. The only way you can control anybody is to lie to them.”

 – L. Ron Hubbard, “Off the Time Track,” lecture of June 1952, excerpted in JOURNAL OF SCIENTOLOGY issue 18-G, reprinted in TECHNICAL VOLUMES OF DIANETICS & SCIENTOLOGY, vol. 1, p. 418

Wow...it's no wonder that evil POS Hubbard went into hiding.

Holiday

Happy Mass Murder day.

Once again we come to May First.

This is the day on which Leftists traditionally shout out their claim to be morally superior beings who are entitled to rule over us mere humans and take the product of our thought and labor to use as they they see fit for the betterment of mankind. And if you really believe their claims then obviously you won't notice the pile of the one hundred million-plus human bodies that the self styled agents of progress have left in their wake as they have made their way to power, and willfully abused that power over us mere humans.  When we see through the ideology and other claims of the Left it's very readily apparent that their doctrine is nothing more than a modernistic facade placed over the old stone age practice of beating up or killing people and taking their stuff.  It is time that we see the Left for what they truly are, not as the vanguard of moral progress, but only a gang of thieves and murderers.
 
One of things I usually do on May Day is to repost the Affirmations for the Inner Communist, Ayn Rand once said that it was morally acceptable mock evil as long as it was recognized as evil. So once again I present:

Stuart Smalley's Daily Affirmations for the Inner Communist

Monday:

"I'm going to execute and expropriate today just for the heck of it because, gosh darn it, I deserve to have a good time."

Tuesday:

"I am not a fraud, a Marxist yes, but not a fraud."

Wednesday:

"I deserve all the mass adulation from the people I can get without feeling ashamed or being grandiose."

Thursday:

"I will express my feelings today. I will not hide them behind my mustache. My mustache is not a mask for my feelings, but rather a small patch of facial hair that covers my inadequacies."

Friday:

"When I rob a bank for the cause, I will not be playing those parent tapes in my head: "You wield a revolver like a girl" . . . "Why can't you be more like Stalin?" . . . "Philosophy? What kind of major is that? It's useless!"

Saturday:

"Just because I execute Christians and counter-revolutionaries does not mean I'm an mass-murdering psychopath like my father."

Sunday:

"If I must violently put down a counter-revolution today, it is not because I am a bad person or that I am not worthy of love; it is because my people are a bunch of religion-addicted capitalist sons-of-bitches--and I am mean enough, ruthless enough, and dog gone it, people fear me."

We should recall that Comrade Stalin was embalmed and displayed next to Lenin for eight years.

Apparently so everyone in the Soviet Union could be assured that he was in fact dead.

The theory of Communism was invented by a group of professional parasites in order to give the appearance of modernity and moral legitimacy to the stone-age practice of beating-up and killing productive people and taking their stuff. Of course that is about the nicest description I could give to it. Normally I think of the practice of Communism as being the behavior of those who chose to act as sub-human predatory animals. And as with any other predatory animal that attacks human beings I believe that they should be hunted down and killed. Parasite mentalities as a general rule see themselves as superior beings and other people, the productive population, exist solely as either tools that they can use to pursue their goals or as trash to be disposed of. Killing those who rightfully refuse to be the slaves of the self-appointed superior beings is not an act of murder, in their minds it's simply the disposal of hominid garbage. In practical terms a Communist is a mortal enemy of human kind and killing a Communist can be no more wrongful than putting down a rabid animal or destroying any other active hazard to human life.

The fact of the matter is that the self-described "Peace Activist" does not act out of conscience but out of a fraudulent desire to pose as a morally superior being without any regard for the millions of innocents that they condemn to death and servitude. A "Peace Activist" is a willing accessory to the acts of mass slavery and mass murders committed by the various adherents of toxic ideologies such as Socialism and Islam. And killing a "Peace Activist" is not an act of murder, it is in effect the putting down of a diseased animal which is a demonstrated hazard to innocent Human Life.

A Democratic Socialist is still a Socialist and still a Enemy of Mankind and still a Murderer.

 How many people have Marxists murdered?

Over 3000 a day on average a day during the Cold War.

A basic premise of Collectivism is that all people need a leader to think for them and to collectively direct their lives. In the Collectivist view the Russians needed a big brother or father figure such as Stalin, the Chinese needed a Mao, the Koreans (not just in the north) needed the Kim Dynasty.  And we in the United States absolutely require the guidance of The Big Zero or Hillary. 

(Of course any sympathies the Left ever had for fellow socialists like the Austrian Corporal or the Loud Mouthed Italian fellow have been quietly dropped down the memory hole.)

This is, of course, a total fantasy.

The Shepherd Fantasy appears to be a psychological device that Collectivists use to evade knowledge of, or to mentally blank out, the fact that they are not really useful members of a human society but are truly nothing more than a bunch of parasites and outright predators who are feeding off their betters.

As Ayn Rand once pointed out, they need us. We on the other hand, have absolutely no use for them.

So why won’t the Collectivists get out of the way of those of us who live in the Real World?

Because they know that sooner or later, we will properly identify them for what they are, and that we will eventually turn our guns upon them.

 How many people have died escaping from capitalism?

 "Better see the Reds dead!"

--Ayn Rand

 "To send men to the firing squad Judicial proof is unnecessary.  These procedures are an archaic bourgeois detail.  This is a revolution and a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate."

--Che Guevara, Marxist Murderer

Those who dehumanize them themselves cannot claim protection under a human right.  Killing a Marxist is no more an act of murder than putting down a rabid dog or eliminating any other hazard to Human Life.

Josef Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Pol Pot died peacefully instead of properly at the end of a rope.  Socialism was the most toxic ideology promoted in the previous century, there's no excuse to promote it.

If The Democrats want to behave like Socialists, fine.  Let's treat them like Socialists, in the Nuremberg style, from the neck until dead.
