I saw a flowchart awhile back that was pretty convincing that if you just made it illegal for liberals to own guns, like 99.5% of all gun crime would disappear overnight.

just send them to venezuela's wikipedia page, and have them read about everything that's happened since 1999 and the correlation to gun violence. and then see how's it's only got worse since they then outlawed guns in 2011.

Default Gun Rights: Should you be allowed to own an RPG?

This reporter incident reminds me so much of when those two brothers shot all of those people at the Boston Marathon. Guns should definitely be outlawed.

I've been looking at this one all day, and I still don't get it. What does the NRA have to do with a guy shoving a stick into the spokes of his bicycle wheel? The original version made more sense.

Maybe it's just me, but I'd think that if I wanted to effect social-policy change at a national scale, one of the first items on the checklist would be "Don't look like a delusional retard."

^Yes, but they are saying the gov't is staging these attacks as a way to overturn the 2nd Amendment and take away our guns, that they NWO order can enslave and/or slaughter us all (which doesn't make since because then who would produce to make them rich).........I suspect most of these people honestly belong in a Sanitarium somewhere.

From what I gather (I like to follow conspiracy sites/FB pages for the lolz), most of the conspiracy nuts are hard core, right wingers whom also believe there is a magical bearded man in the sky who:

"....wants me to let him save me from what he will do to me if I don't let him save me."


I'm always amused by this. The same gov't who can't even get it together to keep the streets in decent order are able to coordinate collusion between dozens, hundreds, thousands of citizens in a huge plot to change a social policy.

Of course the answer is that it's faked ineptitude to keep the sheeple asleep, blah blah blah.

I understand their motivation.

By the same token, the crazy guy shouting at nobody in particular on the subway platform probably also genuinely believes that we're all the unwitting or ignorant victims of some conspiracy or another. But everyone ignores the crazy guy because he's clearly crazy.

People who loudly make absurd claims about false-flag attacks are no different from open-carry advocates who open-carry in public places just to prove that they can. Both cast upon themselves a shadow of marginality, and do harm to the causes which they espouse.


Now, let's talk seriously about implementing a program of forced sterilization and internment based upon the proven science of eugenics.

It would be easy.

Hmmm, if false flags were proposed in the '60s, imagine what crazy **** they could come up with today. Who will be our next enemy?

Are you new to the game? That's been known about for decades.

Go check out From The Wilderness: Information on Peak Oil, Sustainablility, and the events surrounding 9/11

I was reading that guy right after 9/11, makes some interesting points. Although like many others that have been completely wrong with Peak Oil theory.

To bad Rupert is dead now. I enjoyed his site back in the day. Lots of crazy things one it, but always a fun read. He actually had a very good book called "Crossing the Rubicon".

Yep, he even put up money to refute his detailings of the 9/11 timeline.

I will look up the book, haven't read it.

EDIT: See it was out in 2004, I think I had stopped reading his site by then.

Not new to the game. It just concerns me when people think our gov't isn't capable of doing/planning some devious ****.

We keep supplying arms/funds or training to supposed allies and then X years later, we are at war with them. (Vietnam, gulf war etc).

Serious question:

When the US Federal Government and its agents FUBAR a relatively simple operation, such as the burglary of a Democratic National Committee office, the covert invasion of Cuba or the passage of a uniform healthcare code, are these deliberate failures intended to lull the populace into a false sense of security vis-a-vis "If the government can't even do X, how could they possible accomplish Y?"

Good points. I guess if your entire administration is corrupt and doing illegal ****, someone is going to screw up eventually. (Nixon). Healthcare was doomed from the start.

Anti-Gun Senator Shoots Intruder

Long time Anti-Gun Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two intruders at his home just outside Tabor City , N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday, the prosecutor for the politician's home county said.

The intruder, Kyle Blackburn, was taken to a South Carolina hospital, but the injuries were not reported to be life-threatening, according to Rex Gore, district attorney for Columbus, Bladen andBrunswick counties..

The State Bureau of Investigation and Columbus County Sheriff's Department are investigating the shooting, Gore said. Soles, who was not arrested,declined to discuss the incident Sunday evening.

"I am not in a position to talk to you," Soles said by telephone. "I'm right in the middle of an investigation."

The Senator, who has made a career of being against gun ownership for the general public, didn't hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he believed he was in immediate danger and he was the victim.

In typical hypocritical liberal fashion, the "Do as i say and not as i do" Anti-Gun Activist Lawmaker picked up his gun and took action in what apparently was a self-defense shooting. Why hypocritical you may ask? It is because his long legislative record shows that the actions that he took to protect his family, his own response to a dangerous life threatening situation, are actions that he feels ordinary citizens should not have if they were faced with an identical situation.

It has prompted some to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal safety is more valuable than yours or mine.

But, this is to be expected from those who believe they can run our lives, raise our kids, and protect our families better than we can.
