We Want Background Checks...
« on: February 17, 2019, 01:48:33 PM »
... but we don't want to follow up on them, at least if the denied person is an illegal alien.

Yet dems continually are "perplexed" as to why us redneck gun owners don't want their "common sense" legislation.

It’s almost like the USA is occupied and run by it’s enemies.

Or maybe the country is schizophrenic.

Whom the gods destroy they first drive crazy, isn’t that the old quote?

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

As I've said more than once, it was the "Occupy" movement for a reason.

The guy that killed 5 people in Aurora, IL never should have been issued a FOID card, and the State Po-po should have picked it up in 2014 when he applied for a CCW License as they "discovered" his 1994 felony conviction in Mississippi.

So yes, one more law will fix everything !!!

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

It's not about fixing things, or even LOOKING like fixing things.  It's about preventing counter-revolutionaries from being able to resit.

Apparently, they revoked his FOID, and sent him a letter telling him to turn in his gun. But hey, that's a big improvement over how authorities treated the creep in Parkland.

Apparently the Illinois State Police forget to ask "Pretty Please" when they sent him the letter...

The State Police have said the perpetrator pinky-promised to turn in his gun, but reneged.
