All politics are local. All politics are force by other means. "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." Dr. Ben Franklin, scientist & corporate entrepreneur.
from wordaroundthenet:
"One of the toughest parts about freedom is that it necessarily means
that you have to put up with things you do not like, or do without
things you might prefer. For example, in Texas, they have very loose
zoning laws, so that you can have a neighborhood of homes right next to
an amusement park. Loud, bright lights, lots of traffic, but people are
free to do that if they choose."
..."Every small liberty surrendered to the government means it is hungry for
more, spreading like oil on water, until it covers everything." more
The federal government did NOT take this land from the aboriginals living in North America when the Europeans first landed. The feds took the land (and our Freedoms) unconstitutionally from the sovereign states and We the People. The regime has breeched the contract (Constitution) with We the People multiple times since 1789.
We are living under a criminal 'government.'
Put in this perspective it doesn't matter the way that Ammon Bundy and his small band of Patriots are behaving by occupying the buildings on the wildlife refuge that the socialist teddy roosevelt decreed in 1908 near Burns Oregon. What matters is the BIG picture. How would you feel if the regime took your land, your livelihood, your birthright because the land or the creatures on it were 'pretty'?
If you can't understand what Chris Taylor is saying about Freedom and Responsibility and Virtue then how do your chains weigh upon your shoulders? Are you ready to be 'devoured' or are you ready for Freedom? Its coming whether you like it or not.

The French have adopted what is clearly a no-nonsense attitude toward
radical Islamist terrorism since the Paris attacks and they’re not
taking their foot off the gas. As the United States continues to debate
over “tone” and how to balance religious liberty and tolerance against
domestic security, Francois Hollande’s forces have “cut a few corners”
on those subjects and just begun shutting down mosques. At least three
of the Muslim houses of worship have been closed already and law
enforcement has found a trove of disturbing items among the haul. (Speisa)
Police investigating the Paris terror attacks have shut
down three mosques in a series of raids to close the net on Islamic
extremists, the Express reports.
Police in France also arrested the owner of a revolver found during
Wednesday’s raid, France’s Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said.
Security officials found jihadist documents at the mosque where yesterday’s raids took place.
They have placed nine people under house arrest. Another 22 have been banned from leaving the country Mr Cazeneuve said.
In additon to the mosques, the French have kicked in the doors on
2,235 homes and taken 232 people into custody or placed them on house
arrest. More than three hundred weapons were discovered at the mosques. Tom Porter at the International Business Times
reports that the trove included 7.62mm ammunition, Kalashnikov rifles
and terrorist propaganda videos. And they’re only just getting started more
It seems as if the French have uncovered quite a few islamo-fascists since they suspended civil liberties. I detest the French losing what few actual Freedoms that they have. I do not want we Americans to lose anymore Freedoms--in fact we need to restore the Freedoms that .gov has stolen from us.
There are at least two interesting questions though:
"How will the council on american-islamic relations (cair) explain this away?"
and
"How many mosques here in America are home to treasure-troves of firearms, bomb-making materials, and islamo-fascist anti-freedom materials?"
Just thought I'd ask those questions, for starters.
You have been getting ready for the counter-jihad haven't you?

Two months ago, the State of New York began to enforce, in little baby steps, the SAFE Act.
Today (Wednesday 9 December 2015), we have this announcement posted on AR15dotCoam:
"The New York State Police have launched an
investigation into alleged SAFE Act violations and appear to have
possession or copies of 4473s showing who purchased firearms. Consider
speaking with a lawyer if contacted."
Just exactly where and how the NYSP got hold of 4473s is an
interesting question. They either got them from ATF industry operations
inspectors or directly from cooperating quisling gun sellers. In any
case, it is obvious that the Supreme Court refusal to hear the Chicago
case is viewed as a green light to tyrannical gun raids. Isn't this
where His Majesty's General Gage started? And how did THAT turn out?
We are about to find out if this generation of Americans possesses the
same Three Percent that the Founding generation did.
Get ready folks. Make your final pre-war preparations with
the slender hours you have left. A storm is coming, and it is about to
break over all our heads.
The Third American Revolution is about to begin.

Now you have ISIS actually being
defeated – and a genuine risk where the world would see that Russia
was so easily able to defeat ISIS in weeks/months – where the U.S.
action in the past two years would be displayed for what it was, a
ruse. The hypothesis is: President Obama wants to allow ISIS to
exist, he essentially supports the expression of their views on
Islam; however, he faces a problem where he must hide his intent
because his viewpoint is antithetical to the rest of the world

fully vetted: Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik enter O'Hare International 27 July 2014
Sheriffs and police chiefs across the country are publicly strongly advising the citizens in their jurisdictions to "get guns to defend themselves as soon as possible."
Don't you think that is a little bit strange? Maybe they know something that we don't? Too bad the sheriff of San Bernardino didn't tell his citizens that.
Better hurry. Sale ends soon. All sales final.

From Global Guerrillas:
"Here's some thinking on how warfare will change over the next twenty years.
Fast forward 20 years (about the age of the WWW). An aging,
schlerotic EU has become the destination for over a hundred million
refugees and migrants fleeing the densely populated killing fields of
Africa and SW Asia.
The rapidity of influx has led the EU to take extreme measures.
Tens of millions of these migrants/refugees are roughly housed in
relocation camps all across Europe." more
John Robb was a SOF pilot flying for our Air Force. He is a Princton graduate. I highly recommend his book "Brave New War: The next stage of terrorism and the end of globalization"
Companies pay him big bucks to predict new technologies and trends.
What he is describing in this article is the artificially intelligent 'Skynet' which is the antagonist of the "Terminator' series of Hollywood films.
ISIL and the other islamo-fascist threats pale by comparison don't they?

Parisians lighting candles for the dead on Sunday after the islamo-fascist attack
From the Boston Globe: (If you want to be good boys and girls you can go to this address and sign up for their junk mail--http://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/2015/11/16/paris-and-fall-rome/ErlRjkQMGXhvDarTIxXpdK/story.html). I could really care less. By Niall Ferguson
I am not going to repeat what you have already read or heard. I
am not going to say that what happened in Paris on Friday night was
unprecedented horror, for it was not. I am not going to say that the
world stands with France, for it is a hollow phrase. Nor am I going to
applaud President Hollande’s pledge of “pitiless” vengeance, for I do
not believe it. I am, instead, going to tell you that this is exactly
how civilizations fall.
Here is how Edward Gibbon described the Goths’ sack of Rome in August 410 AD:
“In the hour of savage license, when every passion was inflamed, and
every restraint was removed . . . a cruel slaughter was made of the
Romans; and . . . the streets of the city were filled with dead bodies
. . . Whenever the Barbarians were provoked by opposition, they extended
the promiscuous massacre to the feeble, the innocent, and the helpless
. . .”
Now, does that not describe the scenes we witnessed in Paris on Friday night?
True,
Gibbon’s “History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’’
represented Rome’s demise as a slow burn over a millennium. But a new
generation of historians, such as Bryan Ward-Perkins and Peter Heather,
has raised the possibility that the process of Roman decline was in fact
sudden — and bloody —rather than smooth: a “violent seizure . . . by
barbarian invaders” that destroyed a complex civilization within the
span of a single generation.
Uncannily similar processes are destroying the European Union today, though few of us want to recognize them for what they are.
Let
us be clear about what is happening. Like the Roman Empire in the early
fifth century, Europe has allowed its defenses to crumble. As its
wealth has grown, so its military prowess has shrunk, along with its
self-belief. It has grown decadent in its shopping malls and sports
stadiums. At the same time, it has opened its gates to outsiders who
have coveted its wealth without renouncing their ancestral faith.
The
distant shock to this weakened edifice has been the Syrian civil war,
though it has been a catalyst as much as a direct cause for the great
Völkerwanderung of 2015. As before, they have come from all over the
imperial periphery — from North Africa, from the Levant, from South Asia
— but this time they have come in their millions.
To be sure, most have come hoping only for a better life.
Things in their own countries have become just good enough economically
for them to afford to leave and just bad enough politically for them to
risk leaving. But they cannot stream northward and westward without some
of that political malaise coming along with them. As Gibbon saw,
convinced monotheists pose a grave threat to a secular empire.
It
is conventional to say that the overwhelming majority of Muslims in
Europe are not violent, and that is doubtless true. But it is also true
that the majority of Muslims in Europe hold views that are not easily
reconciled with the principles of our modern liberal democracies,
including those novel notions we have about equality between the sexes
and tolerance not merely of religious diversity but of nearly all sexual
proclivities. And it is thus remarkably easy for a violent minority to
acquire their weapons and prepare their assaults on civilization within
these avowedly peace-loving communities.
I do not know enough
about the fifth century to be able to quote Romans who described each
new act of barbarism as unprecedented, even when it had happened
multiple times before; or who issued pious calls for solidarity after
the fall of Rome, even when standing together in fact meant falling
together; or who issued empty threats of pitiless revenge, even when all
they intended to do was to strike a melodramatic pose.
I do know
that 21st-century Europe has only itself to blame for the mess it is now
in. For surely nowhere in the world has devoted more resources to the
study of history than modern Europe. When I went up to Oxford more than
30 years ago, it was taken for granted that in the first term of my
first year I would study Gibbon. It did no good. We learned nothing that
mattered. Indeed, we learned a lot of nonsense to the effect that
nationalism was a bad thing, nation-states worse, and empires the worst
things of all.
“Romans before the fall,” wrote Ward-Perkins in his
“Fall of Rome,” “were as certain as we are today that their world would
continue for ever substantially unchanged. They were wrong. We would be
wise not to repeat their complacency.”
Poor, poor Paris. Killed by complacency. Niall Ferguson is professor of history at Harvard
University, a senior fellow of the Hoover Institution and author of
“Kissinger, 1923-1968: The Idealist.’’
Evidently someone at Harvard has shrugged off 'social correctness' and is willing to stand up and speak 'Truth to Power.' Are you? Tempus fugit

From bearingarms: "In light of (last) Friday’s terrorist attacks, it seems only a matter of time

asking is “What would I do if suddenly in a situation like Paris??” To
help answer that concern, Bearing Arms will offer a list of ten things
you can do to avoid becoming a casualty in the “War on Terror.”more
It is not hyperbole to state that we are all now islamo-fascism responders
because the avowed goal of Daesh and other such groups is to bring death
