GrokTV – Right to Life Rally: interview with Ovide Lamontagne

Also at the Right To Live Rally this past Saturday at the NH State House was Ovide Lamontagne – easily the “Gentleman of NH Politics”.  He has always been a strong advocate for the Right To Life; thus, seeing him with his ready smile was not a surprise.  While he chided me a tad for … Read more

A message for Democrat NH State Rep Cynthia Chase from the Free State Project

Representative Chase? A message from the Free Staters of NH from the 2nd Amendment Rally – to paraphrase Sally Fields “We really like you, we really do!”.  Note to Cynthia – if you REALLY thought that your outburst was going to chase them off, well, they have a sign for you: Heh!

GrokTV – 2nd Amendment Rally at NH State Capital

Along with the Right To Life Rally, there was a Second Amendment rally at the State Capital in Concord – I would have to say at least 400 enthusiastic, full throated, and intense gun owners and those whose political beliefs do not ride on the latest political fad but on the simple words of the … Read more

New Hampshire House Democrat Respect & Civility Alert! – an update via interviews

And to a degree, an apology for this late update.  After Steve put up this post concerning the total LACK of Democrat civility by David Miller (D-Rochester):

Today’s Respect and Civility Award goes to David P. Miller D- Rochester.

He’s made it his mission to harass a Republican rep who sits near him because he disagrees with them on the right to carry a concealed weapon. Word has it that he was not at all respectful or civil after she spoke against amending a rule to ban firearms on the House floor and in the gallery. Witnesses report that he was rude and persistent. And it has been reported to me that he intends to harass this Republican Rep every day on this issue.

Well, we interviewed both NH State Rep Laura Jones (R-Strafford District 24) who observed the berating delivered by David Miller, and NH State Rep Jeanine Notter (R-Hillsborough District 21).

So, putting armed personel in schools was a wacko idea?

So, NRA Executive VP Wayne LaPierre was crucified for his suggestion for adding more armed folks in schools (even as 1/3 of American schools already had such)?  Gee, what a different a month makes; at today’s Presidential Presser (you know, the one with kids as Progressive stage props?): 18. Provide incentives for schools to hire … Read more

Crony Capitalism

The State Employees Association of NH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Service Employees International Union, is set to open talks soon with Governor Hassan. For those of you private sector pukes still workin’ for the man, I have three words, well, actually more than that, taken from the existing SEIU Collective Bargaining Agreement (which can be read … Read more

Project Veritas – Well, we thought you LIKED Gun Free Zones!

I love it!  Once again, James O’Keefe III and his Project Veritas has done it again.  This time, he decided to see what absolute hypocrites the Journal News staffers were on their paper’s stance that people in the ‘hoods just had to know where the guns were.  Just like sex offenders, gun owners (in their … Read more

Presidential Primary 2016 – well, after all, it HAS already started

“I’m against having a King” And of course, one of the big questions is “like father like son?”  Certainly among the candidates that are being mentioned is Rand Paul. Here he is on gun control and Obama’s threat to use Executive Orders against the Second Amendment: ”I think having a monarch is what we fought … Read more

Cultural Marxism and the Origins of ‘Modern’ Sexual Morality

Adam has this posted on his site and provides some bulleted highlights (can I still use the word ‘bulleted?’)  Go check them out whether you think you have time to watch this or not.  Odds are good you’ll make … Read more

“…and they also fear their Government.” – Part (insert number here)

Here is a video from OathKeepers, an organization that believes once one takes the oath to the US Constitution, it always remain in force.  In these times, when even Peggy Noonan believes that there is widespread angst, we see an organization that holds up, not the US House, not the US Senate, and not even … Read more

ObamaCare provision Prevents Government from Collecting Information on Gun Owners

CNN reports that Harry Reid slipped a mickey into the Patient Affordable Care Act to keep the NRA on the sidelines. Senate amendment 3276, Sec 2716, part c “Protection of Second Amendment Rights” Government cannot collect: “…any information relating to…(A) The lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition” Lucky for Nancy Pelosi and … Read more

Extremist Circumstances

Being a part time ‘hobby blogger’ who REALLY LIKES their hobby, I try to do more than is humanly possible.  (Yes, despite being a Conservative, I am also human).  One of the inhumanly impossible things I like to try to do but often fail (see also only ever did once last year that I can recall) is to visit the pages of other bloggers for content with the intent of linking and sharing it with our readers at GraniteGrok.

The ‘Other Bloggers’ in this instnce are folks I met at RightOnline 2012 or have since corresponded with–at least once to get their contact info–but have probably really been in contact with since then.  This is no reflection on any of us because we’re all busy rhetorically burning fossile fuels at both ends, so time is in short supply.  Everyone is busy working on their stories for their readers and that is as it should be.  But that does not mean we (or in this case me) do not mean well when we express a desire to share content.

So this morning (as my vacation winds down) I stepped out into the sphere to look for something to share but having forgotten to leave behind a trail of digital bread crumbs I got distracted and lost track of time.   The end result isn’t even a T-shirt that reads I went to GraiteGrok and all I got was More Right Wing Extremism.  Instead you get this.

Ban Cities Not Guns…?

A quick look at violent crime, how it has improved, and where it is not improving. Who is it that runs most major cities?  Who want’s us all corralled into urban areas?  I think the answer to both of those questions is (overwhelmingly) Democrats.  Just saying. H/T JR Hoell

Assault Weapons – Chuck Woolery’s thoughts

Chuck has another video out – this time his take on why he needs his assault weapon.  After all, “…to blame assault weapons for these tragedies would be like blaming airplanes for the 9/11 attacks.  The problem lies with the perpetrator and not the tools used to commit the crime” “Our Founding Fathers wanted every … Read more

“Are you guys incompetent, or what?”

I hardly ever watch anything on CNBC – although after this, perhaps I should watch MarisaBartiromo more often.  After all, how cool is that for a media person to call a sitting US Senator incompetent to his face on national TV (all ratings aside, it STILL is a national TV show)?  Them be words that … Read more
