Reflections From a Murky Pond

Some people have postulated that it takes a village to raise a child and there’s some truth in that over-used proverb. The community at large does bear some responsibility for teaching the children.

This is a duty that I’ve always taken quite seriously…

Recently, while I was trimming the bushes in what passes for my front yard, some my neighbors stopped to chat as they returned home from walking their dog. During our friendly conversation, I asked their 12 year-old daughter what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day.

Both of her parents – Liberals – were standing there, so I asked her, “If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?”

She replied, “I’d give food and houses to all the homeless people.” Her parents beamed with pride!

“Wow…what a worthy goal!” I said. “But you don’t have to wait until you’re President to do that!” I told her.

“What do you mean?” she replied.

So I told her, “You can come over to my place and trim the bushes, pull weeds, and plant some bulbs, and I’ll pay you $50. Then you can go over to the subway stop where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.”

She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, “Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?”

I said, “Welcome to the Republican Party.” Her parents aren’t speaking to me.

Hehe…That’s the trick of teaching, as opposed to training or indoctrinating, adding immediacy and personal relevance to the lesson at hand. Children develop a firm grasp of socioeconomic principles amazingly quickly when you do that because even infants seem to understand real fairness. 😉

In the wake of Americans outrage over the Muslim filth’s murder of our soldiers in the wake of some defaced Qur’ans being burned, some of the Islamists’ useful, dhimmi idiots brought out the tired, old canard about burning books.

Where they burn books, at the end they also burn people.

— Heinrich Heine
Almansor: A Tragedy (1823)

Normally it’s best to just ignore that hooting, jabbering, and ranting of America’s domestic enemies, but this is a special case that merits a response in kind.

When it comes to the Muslim filth and all who support them, let us all hope and pray to our sundry Gods that this is true.

Obviously, the quote from Heine being offered up by the Liberal and Progressive Dhimmis is not apropos to the situation. America’s soldiers did not engage in a “book burning.” They burned contraband and trash per standing orders.

Likewise, my response has little directly to do with the recent events in Afghanistan. It was a response to the Liberal and Progressive Dhimmis’ concerns as they expressed them.

Equality is often misunderstood. This is true of men and of our tools. While men and their tools may be equal, they are not equally useful for every singular task.

Fortunately, someone provided the internet with a simple infographic detailing the best class of tools to use to defend yourself and your family from different sorts of criminal attack.

The Right Weapon For The Right Threat

It’s a good guide overall – pistols as carry pieces for personal defense while on the move; pump-action shotguns for home defense; and solid, rapid-fire, high-capacity weaponry for use in defending one’s self and family from the criminal depredations of a government gone bad.

I don’t, however, fully agree with it. Personally, while the CAR-15 / M4 platform certainly has its uses, I prefer greater standoff capability and the ability to take a more proactive approach to defending Americans’ liberty, personal freedoms and the 2nd Amendment.

All of the rifles above are readily available on the civilian market ($1900 – $3200) and all can be found chambered for the .338 Lapua Magnum round (8.60x70mm) which provides the best range, accuracy, and terminal performance of anything this side of the .50 BMG, which is a beast of a round, restricted in some states, and which draws a lot of attention.

At 1000 yards (915m) the .338 has only 137 inches of drop; is still traveling at 1740fps (supersonic); and delivers 1680 ft·lbf of energy to target. Better, trained personnel have made confirmed kills at well over twice this distance – the record being held by British Army CoH Craig Harrison at 2,707 yards (2,475m).

These are the sort of weapons that, in the hands of disciplined and determined Americans, can be used to cull enemy leadership before there is the need for weapons such as the CAR-15 / M4 depicted in the infographic, thus keeping loss of life and destruction of property to a minimum.

Does this mean that I think that Americans should go out right now, purchase and train with these rifles, and start assassinating various politicians, political appointees, and media pundits? No, it does not.

It means that, if one is concerned about the government become tyrannical, one’s first line of defense should be readiness to assassinate the parties specifically culpable for that tyranny and the functional leadership of those who would enforce it. If it ever reaches the horrid point when and where Americans are violently engaged with our own military and police units will be solely because people previously failed to do what was necessary to preempt that eventuality.

By human standards Muslims have some very messed up priorities. By any normative metric the filthy, raghead vermin are beyond the pale of reason. One need only consider how they react to their Qur’an being burned and how they don’t react to their females being burned.

Raghead Priorities Are Not Human Priorities

Oh yes, lampoon the sick, pedophile baboon they follow and seek to emulate or, worse, burn the Qur’an and these poor mockeries of Mankind explode into feral savagery – not that they’re ever far from that condition.

Yet you’ll find no similar outcry about the Muslim tendency to mutilate “disobedient” females by throwing acid in the faces. Nor will you hear anything but apologetics from them on the matter of “honor killings.” Those things are just Muslims keeping discipline in their nests.

The question is why Mankind tolerates either the Muslims’ reaction to burning the Qur’an or their mutilation and/or murder of their females. Man should no more bend his knee to the Muslims’ sensitivities than he should do so to plague rat or rabid dog.

Burn The Qur’an – As A Start

We should burn the Qur’an. We should openly burn as many copies of the baby-raper, Muhammad’s opus as we can and, if and when these vermin respond violently, we should exterminate those that do and then start burning out their masjids, both in the Muslim World and in the West.

Muslims have proven that they can’t be reasoned with because they don’t possess human reason. All that humanity can do is contain their infection and cull their numbers as we would with any other vermin.

Once, long ago, President Lincoln said that our nation must dedicate itself to the great task of ensuring that that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Obama, despite claiming that he seeks to emulate President Lincoln – unsurprising since Obama’s a Black – the boy has helped further and accelerate the ending of America’s government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

Recent statements and actions by the Obama Regime’s enforcement arms make that very clear.

Authorities at both the state and federal level are making preparations for massive social dislocation, with FEMA recently ordering $1 billion dollars worth of dehydrated food – a total of 420 million meals – but Americans who buy food supplies in bulk are being labeled as potential terrorists by the Obama Regime.

Well, except for Muslims of course. The FBI’s marching orders to Military Surplus stores included this wonderful little dog-whistle:

It is important to remember that just because someone’s speech, actions, beliefs, appearance, or way of life is different; it does not mean that he or she is suspicious.

That almost innocuous admonition carries a lot more weight coming from the regime that recently decided to alter all of America’s counter-terrorism training to make meet CAIR’s and ISNA’s “standards.”

Just remember, even though the government seems to be expecting large scale issues, if you’re American and White you’d best not try to stock up on basic emergency supplies, especially if you plan to pay in cash or don’t think you should have to provide ID in order to purchase non-restricted items such as MREs.

The Narcissist-in-Chief’s handlers and overseers don’t like it when you do that and they have large numbers of men with firearms and the federal courts system to enforce that dislike.
