Will Terie Norelli And The Democrats Try To Ban My Refrigerator?
Tuesday, December 25, 2012 at 04:31PM
I think it is appropriate to add this picture to my friend Susan Olsen’s post at GraniteGrok. The one with the ‘Journalist’s Guide To Firearm’s Identification.’
It is a picture of my refrigerator door (left), modified by the manufacturer to accommodate an extra magazine capable of holding all manner of ‘lethal’ ordinance. Soda. Beer. Water, in those earth destroying plastic bottles, paid for with a plastic card, slid through a device made of plastic, carried home in plastic shopping bags and yes…that fridge door modification is made of plastic.
And we all know how dangerous plastic is, and soda, and drunk driving, and yes that is beer. And beer leads to all kinds of bad decisions including those of the relationship variety, which put a massive strain on the arc of our health care existence, and require the state to force everyone to fund contraception, and easy-outs for unwanted pregnancies, even if they need to violate religious freedoms to do it, because sluts vote before or after the beer (wine, hard lemonade, shots, or fruity drinks) and wake up hung over and bleary-eyed next to a Republican (Lord help us) with a little “RINO” in the oven.
If left to its own devices that little treasure will grow up and go to public a public school where no one but criminals will be allowed to carry firearms even if the Democrats manage to convince the other bobble-heads to ban assault weapons or any other sort, because the very nature of law breakers is to engage in the act or acts of breaking laws of which gun bans are but one.
And while some folks are nodding their own heads as the pols and talking heads banter on ad -nauseam for the immediate regulation of “firearms” they can neither identify, quantify, or describe, and whose use is less a threat than that claimed for obesity (evil soda) and alcohol (ruins families, friends, property, people, and lives), when the winds of crisis governance are blowing a different direction, my refrigerator is as likely a candidate for further legislative oversight and regulation as anything else because it is not really about assault weapons or soda or even children.
If Democrats and liberals really cared about children they’d be against abortion which kills children.
This is about growing government and centralizing power and we have to excuse them their furrowed brows and chest pounding diatribes because this is a regulatory crime of passion and no one should be held responsible for what they do under such duress.
Not the best way to run a government. But it is a great way to lose control of one.
So while my fridge magazine is fully loaded today, and my choice of ordinance is still up to me, the left has already made it known that they do not approve, and are simply waiting for a convenient Kodak moment of crisis to dramatize for the sole purpose of advancing the regulatory state, which they will then (by the way) insist that you pay for, no matter how far fetched their social math might be.
And even though the war against women would be better met by women less likely to have to ask what they would do if impregnated as a result or rape or incest, because an armed woman is much less likely to find herself a casualty of that front in the war, the left will insist that they make themselves victims because of real tragedies amplified to advance an anti gun agenda rather than to promote an agenda of self defense.
Have you noticed that these lunatics always end their assaults the minute someone arrives with the ability to apply equal or greater force in defense of life? Imagine if they suspected for a moment that there were already people in that building able and willing to use equal or greater force in defense of life?
Democrats would be talking about something else, possibly obesity, or contraception, or abortion, maybe even about refrigerators. But banning firearms would be waiting on the shelf for a suitable tragedy. One that could only be lessened or prevented if perpetrators could not be guaranteed a force advantage, the same one that the same Democrats hope to give them and then some, if they are allowed to have their way.
So who needs a beer?

Or by a crazy who starts a fire and calls firefighters so he can shoot them. Most Americans -- even those who have such assault weapons -- aren't like that, but the more there are, the more likely they'll get in the hands of the crazy people.
Why can't we have a real discussion about this issue? Just like the myths of an "$800 million deficit," or that "Obamacare is socialized medicine" (whereas it's mostly privatized), or that "gay marriage is a slippery slope," there a new myth a-brewing among the Tea Partiers and right-wingers that President Obama and the Democrats are after everyone's guns.
It would be good if we could put the myths aside, and deal with the issues facing us. Gun ownership is a right, up to a limit. The Founders never intended guns of any size, any power, to be owned by everyone. That's why the Second Amendment, which I and Democrats want to protect, provides for "...well regulated..." gun ownership, that preserves individual rights yet PROTECTS the rights of the rest of us, too.
Most Democrats are freedom-loving, and we want to preserve our liberties. That's why most of us are so strongly in favor of marriage equality, voting rights for all, immigration reform that makes sense, women's choice, workplace equality, support for unions -- which are families of working women and men -- access to affordable health care, and yes: protecting the Second Amendment, for "...well regulated..." gun rights.
Join us. At least let's discuss the real issues.
If you just dealt with the facts, we'd have productive dialogue in this state and nation -- and on this blog -- about Second Amendment rights -- which Democrats want to protect -- but instead you create the myths.
It's kind of fun and entertaining to watch you do so, that's true. So, thank you. But it does bottom out your arguments by making them so shallow.
See how quickly Senator Feinstien had a gun confiscation bill ready?
If only she had a jobs bill ready - or even a Senate Budget; due for four years.
But Democrats are only good at getting their base scared enough to turn out and that means BAIT and SWITCH!
Democrats can't run a lemonaid stand or create a budget - for fear taxpayers would see what is IN it.
Just like gun confiscation was not part of the last campaign, nor was this fiscal cliff nonsense, all of a sudden liberals are showing their hand.
No one can beat a woman who shoots!
"You're really a smart guy in a lot of ways -- and I respect that." —Jim Splaine
But lets be clear, You simply not a "smart guy" LOL in some ways, maybe...a lot of ways, certainly...but not a smart guy....period.... "Splaine" that one to me....LOL.
Just splainin' the dif'ernts 'tween smert and doomb.
1) A rough estimate of whatever an assault weapon might be determined that an insignifincant fraction of all crimes can be attibuted to them. Most gun crime is black on black, inner city, poor. Perhaps if you banned welfare you'd see better results.
2) Dem finaince committee member Cindy Rosenwald admitted that Dem leadership knew there was an 800 million dollar deficit and knew they would have to cut spending to eliminate it.
3)Obamacare is designed to drive private insurers out of busines with a goal of single payer government health care. This is also known as socialization.
4) As pointed out above there is interest in the UN gun grab and Feinstein has gun grabbing in her legislations.
So the only myth I see is the one you are peddling that these are myths.
Today the war on women continues, because they are the first to suffer from the joblessness of Obama's piss-poor economy, and now fear they will also be disarmed.
