“Gary, for decades you taught about the need for a Marxist revolution in America. But you lacked the courage to translate your political ideas into reality. Now, in your declining years, you are calling upon young people to incite the kind of violence needed to impose your worldview on those you have failed to persuade. I would encourage you not to send them into harm’s way. Those of us who are staunch defenders of the First Amendment also tend to be staunch defenders of the Second Amendment. And you can bank on the fact that all proceeds from this column will be spent on ammunition.” – Mike Adams in Letter to an Aging Communist [via townhall.com]

The full letter is worth the read.
The only downsides are, the person he’s replying to probably doesn’t care, and the people who need to read it probably won’t.
“The full letter is worth the read.”
Preach it.
Bookmarked and a PDF saved to my archive…
I agree. The columnist himself is a real character. His work, including his books, is pretty insightful.
We actually went to the same high school, though separated by about a decade. Seems we had some of those same people influencing our views on rights and authority.
On this column, I liked his point by point refutation, especially the Ministers of Peace bit toward the end.
Come Getsome.
Damn straight.
I look at the faces of those idiots in the picture and know that they have no clue what they are getting themselves in for if they try to do what that degenerate coward is inciting them to but was too afraid to do himself. They would be facing thousands of Viet Nam vets, vets of so many different conflicts around the world in the war of terrorism, patriots and shooters of all ages, and just plain good people of all races who know what they have in the USA and are willing to fight for it. They are slime and no better than people like bin Laden and Guevera who hate our freedom and want to crush it. My response to them can be said in two words.
Bring it!
LARPing is fun and all until the bodies start stacking.
What I don’t get is how shitting where they eat is supposed to accomplish anything. These people already live in like-minded strongholds. They going to burn down their own neighborhoods or invade Idaho?
This is what happens when “red-state” America’s highest aspirations are to send their kids to “institutions of higher learning”…
Kids who were raised on farms and in small towns go and get indoctrinated and then see all the “oppression” and “hatred” in their old stomping grounds.
So yeah they’d probably really like to invade Idaho and Kansas and Mississippi…gotta make the hive mind complete.
There’s a partial solution to the indoctrination problem.
First, have the kid take all the AP courses he or she can. Also try to have them take as many first-year-level English, history, etc. courses at a local or community college that will transfer credits to where they want to go. Get as many of the out-of-major prerequisites out of the way while they still live at home; its cheaper than paying for required “dreck” at the big name schools and lets you keep tabs on any nastiness the Prof is spewing.
Second, make sure kid picks a hard-science or engineering major – less nonsense there. Side benefit: kiddo is much more likely to find a job after graduation, assuming they don’t go on to grad school. And grad school in the sciences, and some engineering, tends to be self-funded (e.g.tuition paid for by graduate advisor’s research program).
Third, and this is important, STOP PAYING FOR IT if kiddo changes major to something not in the above categories.
These elite credential mills are quite a racket. They have convinced most everyone that having their diplomas actually makes someone more productive and valuable.
There’s a third option as well- send your kid to a private school that shares your values and beliefs. For me, my son goes to a Christian school, like I did. If you disagree with the teachings or have a problem, they’re your paid employees. Go in and have a conversation and address the problem. IME, the instructors are very good and competent and actually care that your kid learns, not just learns to regurgitate. Kids are going to be indoctrinated into whatever you expose them to- that’s just the nature of growing up- so indoctrinate them to what you want them to be.
I remember a conversation I had with a friend of mine who was a missionary in the FORMER Soviet Union, after the fall of the Soviets. He commented on how nothing worked. The heat was out, the plumbing was either leaky, backed up or non-functional and lighting was unreliable at best. He went on to say “they had more education than me, almost to a man, they could discuss Plato, Aristotle, new all the ancient mythologies, most could at least read music if not play and instrument, but they had no desire to fix anything, not really an understanding that they needed to. They were depressed, capable of describing their depression in multiple languages and with deep philosophy, but no answers as to what to do about anything.” This is where our “Institutions of Higher Learning” are pushing us.
“Where there are more guns more women die…”
What they really fail to realize is the context. Where this statement is true is where the government or government sanctioned thugs have guns and the people do not. Then rape, assault, torture, imprisonment, mass executions, etc. can and do take place.
So, once again, the problem isn’t guns…it’s government.
How in the hell do the communists think that they can start a war, and take over America when those spineless pansies can’t, and won’t, leave the confines of their commiecrat controlled bastions (Cities)?
My response always has been, and always will be “I wish a motherf***er would!”
Liberal arts degree is the new scientology, pay a huge amount of money to become brainwashed, retarded, and useless
“Spineless pansies”? Those spineless pansies control the schools, universities, major media and head many major corporations. Once in complete control with the reigns of power over the government, the courts, the police and the military; these spineless pansies then go on a mass murder spree that has killed hundreds of millions in the last hundred years.
So if these people are such spineless pansies, what does that say about the people that have allowed them to come to such prominent positions of power?
So I hear rumors that on November 4th the antifas are coming out of Mom’s basement and are going to physically assault anybody wearing or carrying an American flag. As a means of fomenting the Marxist revolution in America?
Here’s the thing, people…if you plan to carry an American flag between now and when antifa immolates itself, consider a custom flagpole. Go to Home Depot or Lowes and get a four-foot section of 1 inch galvanized pipe. Paint that sucker bright white with Rustoleum. Screw a cap on the top that you have painted gold. Use that for your flagpole.
When some antifa punks/thugs/fascists come for you and your flag, do NOT hit them in the head. Best practice, aim low, preferably kneecaps or shins. A good, solid strike to the shins with that flagpole will put ANYBODY on the ground. Move on to the next customer.
Wearing a good Stars & Stripes bike helmet might be a good option as well.
Throughout history, it was those of the “intelligentia” who fomented and advocated “revolution by any means necessary”.
It is time to reign in these bastions of “higher learning”…
Sometimes the only way to teach people is with hands on experience.
I greatly feel we are fast approaching this point in time that this will happen.
Just as I am sure many southern states fully believed most of the nation was pro slavery, and much of England believed most of the colonies were loyal to the Queen……
Sometimes hands on experience breaks the intellectual bonds.
URETHRA!!! He got it !!
OK, TTAG, you gave the place a facelift.
The comment part, however, is worse than before. I used to be able to double-click on the fiend, and get the right fill. That doesn’t work any more.
I still don’t get updates by email.
Was the facelift really more important?
As I said before, other blogs have comment sections that work as planned. It can’t be that hard.
Ever take a look at the current US Military uniforms? 1.2 Million Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Air Force members…really bad idea.
That whole column is savage.
Well this shit isn’t going to get better if the commies are continued to beat people just for having a differing opinion. They should have been dealt with at first sign of violence. Sadly this won’t end well for anyone involved. They will get taken care of and their buddies on capital hill will try to take our guns away again… still. As of we are supposed to let their weak argument be stronger because it’s backed with baseball bats and flag poles with nails on the end.
Sounds OK. Crowded is a gross understatement. 6.6″ long is a nifty size though. Pardon me but WHUT is the big deal about pulling a trigger on take down?!?
Just to clarify what it will take to win a “civil war”….
Eliminating the Antifa and such other useful fools who may take to the street to do serious violence is winning the battle. The war would only be won when the real perpetrators are also eliminated or deported.
The Communist Party USA has been working here for near 100 years. They have managed to place fellow travelers into positions of power in most institutions in America. Consider who they are; they will not be on the streets they will be setting their offices in Universities, media, law firms, court houses, legislatures, schools, corporations, financiers to name some. Churches also?
Unless those communists/marxists who are the leaders, who provide ideas, direction and money are removed you only kick the can down the road. They will continue their work and produce another generation of Antifa to take to the streets that your children and grand children will have to deal with.
The problem with the above is, most American conservatives are not the kind of people who can or will walk into an office and in cold blood shoot the communist setting behind the desk. Until that happens things will continue as they are, only worse.
Be Prepared!
Wow! Shot him right in the brain. Good going girl!
50 bux says this was gang-related.
Jeremy S is correct
I have been posting here for years that Glock did a dis-service to American gun owners by introducing the concept of pulling the trigger to take apart a pistol
You can talk all you want about “safety is between the ears” and other cliches.
That is NOT true
We in Anesthesia have been doing a lot of research on safety through our Patient Safety Foundation
They have found that even with a highly trained workforce that gets required continuing education there continue to be the same errors made due to inattention, fatigue and unfamiliarity with new equipment
We have started engineering safety features into Anesthesia gas connections and syringes
Guns have a lot of areas where safety features could be built in without taking away from rapid deployment
Starting with a takedown process that does not violate the first rule of gun safety!
I guess you don’t dry fire much.
Why do we do .30-’06 rather than .308? Larger case capacity?
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst; the cursed machine would have ground to a halt . . .”
– Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago
I bought one in 30-06 in the late 70’s. Terrific rifle, I still have it.

ORDERING ON HOLD
We have temporarily suspended accepting new orders while we work to replenish inventory. All orders placed should ship in the next 7-10 business days. Please enter your email address to be notified when more stocks and more models become available.
No, just ignorant sheeple willing to listen to whatever lies thier local politican are spewing.
Beat me to it.
Sheep for accepting disarmament. Fools for thinking they are safe.
I am sure Professior ‘didn’t quite meet expectations’ has a different idea though…
So today’s question is “Are you brave for surrendering your rights to feel better?” No, facing and accepting reality takes courage.
Why should New Yorkers fear criminals on the streets when they have so many extremely dangerous criminals in the New York State and New York City governments?
I love this rifle. My first experience with one was in .458 win mag.
It’s been off my “gotta have” radar till now.
If New Yorkers are brave for not carrying, does that make the Police cowards because they do carry?
The stupid that comes out of the mouths of Cuomo and DeBlasio (both who have armed guards), seems to have no bounds.
If I lived there, I’d sure as hell have one!
Wouldn’t buy one now if they were $10 a dozen.
Funny, I even went to the website to see what the suggested MSRP was…I couldn’t find any.
I live about five miles from there. I’ve been in that WalMart many times, although it’s not the one where I regularly shop, as there are several closer. They have no posting banning carry on premises.
He was arrested near by this morning:

Current reporting is that the guy was an odd duck with financial problems. Of course, it hasn’t been 24 hours yet, so there’s rampant speculation.

Such nonsense. There are far better places to live. Find one.
Love the way the instructor goes crossed-thumbs at 0:42. Very old school.
His fellow inmates will have a whole selection of holes to choose from.
Been through Tijuana many years ago on my way to Ensenada. Would never try that trip today.
