In each and every totalitarian government, one of the first things they do is to disarm the populace. EVERY single time – no exceptions. Our Founders knew this.

More From Gun Safety Guru Alec Baldwin
Alec Baldwin has a new safety recommendation for Hollywood:
Every film/TV set that uses guns, fake or otherwise, should have a police officer on set, hired by the production, to specifically monitor weapons safety.
“Vaccine Clinic” Table With Needles and Vials Left Unattended at Milton NH High School
I was in the school to attend a school board meeting to demand they end the mask mandate, which was fairly well attended. I had the great displeasure of personally witnessing this.
Why is Systemic Racism Apparent Mostly in Democrat Controlled Cities?
We’re told that America is “systemically racist.” I don’t agree, but parts of America appear to be treated in a “systemically racist” way. “Systemic” means a system, an organization, or process with legal authority.
Notable Quote – From One Manufactured Crisis to a Newly Manufactured One
From one manufactured crisis to the next is what despots and dictators do. Careen from one crisis to another always promising they are the cure and that they will “keep you safe.”
Notable Quote – How much are you willing to pay for ‘safety’?
And am I supposed to pay for your idea of what is “safe”? Even if I am willing to accept a higher level of risk / danger than you? If safety fanatics are allowed to kill the goose that lays the golden egg, that can also kill people. Already safety crusades are cracking down on … Read more
PROTECTING the INSTITUTION and NOT YOUR CHILD
I’ve been advocating for parental rights and excellence in education for over a decade in New Hampshire. I’ve done this without any compensation. I’ve never looked for those kinds of rewards; I’ve done it because it’s the right thing to do. I can say without a doubt that if parents do not become more involved with their local schools, they may end up regretting that decision.
Should We Attempt to Recreate the Civil Defense Teams of the 50’s?
During the Cold War, I remember reading that, especially in the late 1950s and the early 1960s, it was not uncommon for people to build bomb shelters well stocked with canned goods in their backyards.
BlogLine of the Day – just like if you ban us from carrying in your business…
From Mike Remski – loyal reader: “You REQUIRE me to wear a mask, then you are assuming all liability, yes? Just like Gun-Free Zones assume all liability for my safety?” (Image H/T: Liberal Conservative)
No Police No Problem … Really?
No shirt, No shoes, No police, No problem. Cities deciding to cut their police funding should stop and ask: Who was Jimmy Hoffa? Maybe they could be cutting their own supply lines. Would that be an issue? What percentage of food, hardware, lumber, electrical supplies, etc. comes by a truck?
So, What Does “Safe” Mean, Anyway?
We’ve heard a lot of talk about masks, social separation, constant washing of hands, etc. We’ve been told that these extra “protective measures” are needed “until it’s safe.”
Democrat Jan Schmidt is a Bigger Threat to You Than this Virus (And she’s not Alone)
I’m confident when I say, there must be an email that went out to Democrats quoting the State Constitution. Years ago. Use “this” to justify your creeping tyranny. Or, in the case of Alderman (and NH House Rep) Jan Schmidt, it may be the only part of the document she needs to know.
If Safety Matters Why Are Democrats Pushing a Bill That Makes Firearm Ownership More Dangerous?
The left wants to confiscate your guns. Party leaders are not shy about that. In states like New Hampshire, the pining presents itself incrementally. Nibble and niggle away at your rights. Make it harder for law-abiding citizens to buy, own, store, carry, or use.
Skynet – Do You Know Where Artificial Intelligence is Going or How Fast it’s Getting “There”
Did you know those chips in your computer are doubling roughly every two years? Did you know AI is growing exponentially? Do you know what quantum computing is? Think about this, quantum computing will make today’s supercomputers look like pocket calculators.
The Democrat Party has abandoned the Average American.
The leftist cabal running for president on the Democratic ticket is getting border and immigration wrong. Democrats do not understand. We do have borders. Borders do mean something.
Put Your Phone Down and Pay Attention
Would you like to learn a little-known secret? For several years before I gave a damn about politics, I practiced writing column length articles. Hey, I like to write. The topic at the time was driving. Traffic stats. Driver safety. And my kids were going to be drivers someday, so it sort of made sense.
Why Do We Now Need Police at the Nashua Board Of Education Meetings?
I have a small mountain of content to share regarding the Nashua Board of Education Clown Car, but this story will only take a minute.
Democrat Congressman: ‘Right to Be Safe’ Trumps Right to Bear Arms
California Democrat Eric Swalwell is excited. The House Judiciary Committee has hearings next week. And what’s getting jiggy with it in his California head? The idea that there is a right to safety that supersedes all others. And that Congress must act on the right to “safety” to the detriment of everything else.
Broward Student Lays Out Devastating Case Against School Board For Neglecting School Safety
The Daily Wire headline says it all. A student dug into the weeds, did the legwork and presented evidence that the district had a lot of money for school safety but spent little, while also favoring plans and policies that actually put student lives at risk.
[Kenneth] Preston confronted the school board two weeks ago and gave his account of what he’d learned to The Hill. In his initial findings, Preston said that he believed that since 2014, the school has only spent around 5% of the over $100 million available to it specifically for school safety. In his new report, he details ways that the failure to invest in school safety may have led to the deaths of some of the students in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting.
TreeHugger has decided to ban me – I guess I ask embarrasing questions
Good thing I have the ‘Grok’ to report on – I’d feel so bad over being banned. Or, at least I think I’ve been banned – dunno why as I never use four letter words or sexual innuendos when leaving comments there (see, I’m consistent: I follow Rule#1 there just like I enforce it here). Such a down morning when I went to leave what I thought was a rather innocuous comment on Lloyd Alter’s post named “Just what we needed Dept: The 3D printed gun” and immediately got an alert that my comment would be moderated. I then left a reply to someone else’s comment and that got moderated. That was early this morning before work – and neither has appeared. Now Lloyd actually works there full time (Managing Editor is his full title), so it seems. It also seems that his post’s title sends the message that, unlike Grokster Tim (here and most of us Groksters would agree it is “wicked pissah good”), he is not all that enamoured with the idea that making the printing of a gun possible is a goodness in democratizing the value of self-defense.
Sigh, my little feelings got hurt (ok, perhaps just “lightly bumped” like a couple of the NASCAR cars yesterday). Hey wait a dang minute, isn’t it part of the the Liberal mantra, their Political Correctness way of life, that someone’s feelings are never to be hurt or even scratched? I guess I just don’t count; I suppose that the TreeHugger tolerance for conservatives takes on a different slant than for other Progressively blessed identity groups. Remember, Progressivism means you never have to say you’re Consistent. Anyways, back to the post:
Compared to many 3D printed objects, this thing is pretty crude. There is also a reason guns are made out of metal and not ABS plastic; It isn’t very safe, and eventually exploded, although not in Wilson’s hands. But hey, freedom is more important than safety; according to Forbes,
Really, Lloyd? At least his snideness is Consistent in the wording of the title to this line. So, I decided to ask him a question about freedom vs safety.
