Cross post from Facebook:

This is my favorite picture out of Virginia.

<img src=https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EOvRgvvU8AYJs3K.jpg>

I’ve never seen a bigger bunch of losers in my life. Nothing like a bunch of old fat guys playing Tacticool LARP fantasy dress up all day. At least the Frodo wannabes aren’t compensating for small dicks.

Let me clarify one important thing: there is nothing wrong with LARPing. Just understand that dressing up like GI Joe doesn’t make you GI Joe. The people who dress up like LOTR characters at least understand it’s a fantasy.

These guys think they can take on the US military. They think they’re part of a “well-regulated militia.” LOTR LARPers don’t think for a second they are fighting Sauron.

The guys in this picture would be the first in line to make fun of people who go to Star Trek conventions. They think they’re somehow better than someone who dons a Darth Vader costume. They “should be taken seriously!” 🙄

The Second Amendment isn’t unlimited. We as a society agreed that citizens shouldn’t be able to wield automatic weapons because they are simply too dangerous to society. It follows that we can also decide AR-15s are too dangerous for citizens to own. The Second Amendment explicitly states this.

I’m a gun-owner. I support well-regulated hunting and sport shooting. What we no longer have use for is a civilian militia that doesn’t have obligations to serve. If you want to be a citizen soldier, join the National Guard. The days of a well-regulated militia ended 80 years ago. Maybe even 100.

The mechanics of war and rise of the military industrial complex have rendered this obsolete in the most complete way imaginable. The militia described in the Second Amendment barely stands a chance against the prospect of oppression by smaller agencies much less the full might of US military. A well-regulated militia is no longer necessary.

Furthermore, no one is coming for your guns.

And even if they were, there’s nothing you and your dress up friends could do about it.

Those guys are at least four standard deviations away from the average gun owner. Was going to post yesterday and never got around to it that one of the problems with social media is it completely distorts the reality of what different groups of people represent. There are very few people who have much understanding of what a gun owner, millennial, or people from other groups truly are.

Bloomberg
Click to expand...

He does have money to burn, but all he'll do is trigger a bunch of knuckle-draggers. Not that I mind but it's not going to gain him any traction.

In no particular order the Dems should be running on:

1. Trump's foreign policy
2. Trump's failed promises
3. Trump's skull-screwing our traditional allies
4. The failing middle-class
5. Saving Medicaid and SS

And tbo 1 & 3 might even be unnecessary. Swing voters don't give a s**t about abortion, gun control, impeachment nor the environment. Sell the belief you can improve the daily lives of middle America and you win.

I want Bloomberg to stay in this race. His ability to flaunt his money in Trump's face takes some heat off the actual candidates.

A real billionaire also gets under Dump's mottled, disease-ridden skin. Dump goes out of his way to slag Bloomberg because he seethes with anger and resentment at a guy who actually has net positive assets.

I don't think Bloomberg adds anything as a candidate -- Casear vs Pompey, who cares? But I want to use Bloomberg's money to destroy Dump and then use the tax code to take Bloomberg's money.
 
Re: Gun Control 1: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang

Two shootings today so far.

2 dead at a Texas AM residence hall. Think other shooting was on a bus.

Meanwhile, the GOP Chairman in Virginia decided to walk around the property of the Virginia lawmaker who spearheaded the bill this past weekend...

... while armed with an assault rifle.

Did he stay on public property?
Is it legal in VA to carry a rifle uncased in public?


The shooting range I frequent mandates all weapons (handgun, rifle) must be cased from car to firing line (the exception being legal concealed carry is considered "cased").

Quit pretending that "your" experience matches the overall culture of gun owners. It doesn't. Your "experience" is getting crushed in the media by the reality.

It doesn't state if the GOP Chairman was trespassing, judging by the photo, I would say yes, but it wasnt explicitly mentioned, so I would err on no, he was not trespassing

At the state level, Virginia is an open carry state.

Discharge of a weapon within the city limits, except on certified ranges, of Alexandria is a local ordinance.


What the GOP Chairman appears to have broken was Virginia law on harassment, for twice repeating the home address of the lawmaker, and also stating: "I hope you kissed your wife. I hope you kissed your husband. I hope you kiss your children goodbye before you come and take mine [firearm], because that’s the last time you’d have ever kissed them in your life."
