I Am Not Hating Anyone

August 5th, 2012 . by Cary

I have been accused (by family members, no less!) of being a hateful man. I have been accused of not being tolerant of those who think differently than I do. I have been accused of HATING certain religious belief systems, and MAKING UP phrases such as “The Homosexual Agenda”.

To borrow a phrase, “guilty as charged”. Well, guilty of being truthful, which appears to be hate to certain people, especially those who allow their “feelings” to overrule their “thinkings”.

I am tolerant, of those who are trying to live correctly. I am NOT tolerant of those who try to force their ideologies on me or my family – and by “ideologies” I mean trying to convince me that homosexuality is “normal” and an “accepted” part of society now. (no, they are not. they may be considered normal and acceptable by liberal left leaning peoples, but not by true Christians.) And intolerant? How about when Christians decide not to support a business, and are called “racist” for doing so? How about when Christians decide to show their SUPPORT for a business and are called “racist” for doing so? Who is intolerant?

As far as the “Homosexual Agenda” – tell me you haven’t noticed that every prime-time show now has a “gay” character – or a “gay couple” – and the other characters pretend it is normal. Yes, the producers of those shows are trying to convince people that these types of relationships are normal and accepted. THAT is the Homosexual Agenda.

Don’t take my word for it – the mainstream media has been slanting coverage and cherry-picking stories for a while now. A man with a blog that I just found today, Lloyd Marcus, states the whole issue, even addressing the “racist” issue obliquely, in his post:

My conversation with Dad was yesterday. He called me at 9AM this morning. “Why haven’t I heard about what Christians were doing in support of Chick-fil-A?” I told Dad the reason is because the mainstream media, where he gets his news, is in the pocket of the socialists/progressives who embrace same-sex marriage. The mainstream media (CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC) gave the phenomenon minimal coverage.

Dad was surprised to learn that all who oppose same-sex marriage are branded bigots and haters by his beloved Democratic Party and the mainstream media. Dad said he does not hate or judge anyone. However, the Bible says homosexuality is wrong. He must stand on the Word of God.

You can read the whole post here.

Now, really, you gonna call a black gentleman who happens to be a conservative Christian “racist” too?

Isn’t that kind of … I don’t know, maybe intolerant of you?

Quick Clip

July 22nd, 2012 . by Cary

Names of things mean things. In the article linked, Aurora, Colorado Police Chief Dan Oates (who, by all indications, should know better) had this to say about an aspect of the case:

“All the weapons that he possessed, he possessed legally,” Oates said at the Friday evening press conference. “And all the clips that he possessed, he possessed legally. And all the ammunition that he possessed, he possessed legally.”

(emphasis mine)

Clips? Really? He had all this tactical advantage and he used clips during the shooting?

For those of you unaware of the difference (which seems to be quite a few, since the Misleading State Media seem to enjoy feeding you lies), clips hold the rounds ready for loading into either replaceable magazines or into a magazine well on the weapon (the Arisaka leaps to mind).

Need some visuals? Glad you asked:

Russian Clip
Arisaka Clip
M95 Clip

These are clips. These are used to hold the rounds of ammunition in a state of readiness before loading into the magazine (or magazine well) of a weapon. These are the items that legislatures everywhere are crying about because they are “high capacity clips” that allow people to shoot rapidly. They want to ban these. They are morons.

338 Magazine
556 Magazine
Magazines

These are magazines. These are the actual tools used to transport the round from a ready, pre-loaded position into the firing chamber of the weapon. It doesn’t matter what the capacity of these magazines are. With enough of them, and fast enough hands, even the dorkiest of shooters can pray and spray many more rounds of ammo than any non-armed person is ready to deal with.

In my own case (being a dorky shooter and all) I can rapidly fire all loaded rounds, release the magazine, and have another magazine seated and fire all rounds in under twenty seconds. How many rounds? Twenty Five (one in the pipe, two magazines of 12 each) – and that’s without a magazine pouch – just having the second magazine in my back pocket. What if I bought more magazines? I’m pretty sure that with magazine pouches, I could send a lot of lead downrange in a very short period of time.

I lost my point there somewhere along the way – that is, a Police Chief can’t tell the difference between a clip and a magazine? Perhaps it’s time to let someone else be in charge now … someone who is fully aware of the intricacies of how a weapon is loaded …

EDIT TO ADD

After watching this guy, I think everyone else is just slacking off.

Conflict of Interest

February 12th, 2012 . by Cary

Or, at least, a conflict of intelligence. And a profound lack thereof.

Remember a while back, when the Arizona State legislature, in a fit of common sense and support for the Second Amendment passed a law removing the need for a concealed carry permit in order to carry a weapon in a concealed manner? Yeah, gotta tell ya, the naysayers were right – there is blood running in the streets, everyone is shooting one another, and it’s just not safe to drive in the state of Arizona anymo- what? All that didn’t happen? But, the left, the liberals, and the main stream media all said that is exactly what would happen! So, it must have, right?

Uh, no.

The only discernible victim of this new law seems to be rhetoric. On the other hand, short term memory problems have blossomed in the legislature.

The powers that be have determined (SB 1474) that it should be legal for anyone who has a concealed-carry permit to actually be allowed to be armed anywhere they go – specifically, onto the former victim-rich environment known as college campuses.

Hmm, no concealed carry permits required in the state, and those who are allowed to carry concealed can now protect themselves in former victim-rich zones.

You know what this means, right?

There will be blood running in the streets, everyone will be shooting one another, and it’s just won’t safe to drive in the state of Arizona anymo- uh, never mind.

Stop Personal Attacks on Obama

September 25th, 2011 . by Cary

Snagged this from a page on Facebook (seems there are still a few good things on there!)

Please, please, do NOT personally attach President Obama. It will only increase sympathy for him.
Do NOT attack him personally with labels, vicious images, offending words or comparisons to various dictators.
Here are some policies and actions you can criticize him for:

1.
• His unwillingness to increase domestic oil, natural gas and nuclear energy production to decrease our dependency from foreign oil;

2.
• His intentional push towards higher energy prices (e.g. through passing “Cap and Trade”) in order to make green energy viable, even when green companies receiving government funds go bankrupt (e.g. Solyndra);

3.
• His many Executive Orders bypassing Congress on legislative matters and possibly unconstitutional;

4.
• His inability to understand the Economy and how real jobs are created. His best option being…. to follow his ideological instincts;

5.
• His inability to put on paper his teleprompter-announced plans: His only concrete budget proposal being voted down by a Democratic Senate 97 to zero;

6.
• His proposal for a $1.5 Trillion in new taxes in a period of economic stagnation, knowing that the first stimulus did not work and “shovel ready” jobs are not really there.

7.
• His immoral downloading of Trillions of dollars of debt to our next generations;

8.
• His failure in leadership, causing the most financially stable economy in the world to lose its AAA rating;

9.
• His anti-business attitude, regulations and verbal attacks, causing many small
businesses to stop hiring;

10.
• His appointment of Jeffrey Immelt, chairman and CEO of General Electric, as Chair of the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, while GE is investing in a $2 Billion plant in China;

11.
• His intentional bail-out of banks and insurance companies with taxpayers’ money;

12.
• His habit of blaming America abroad, in order to attract support for himself and appear “on their side”;

13.
• His illusion that government can help the economy by irresponsible and immoral overspending, accumulation of debt and printing of money;

14.
• His advancement of his health care plan through bribery (Louisiana Purchase, the Cornhusker Kickback, the $5 billion Medicaid set-aside for Florida Sen. Bill Nelson) and without the people’s support;

15.
• His promotion of his health care plan using deceptive figures to show that “it would save money”;

16.
• His spending of taxpayers’ money for promoting his healthcare plan;

17.
• His refusal to denounce radical extremists and prosecute the black thugs that intimidated voters during the 2008 election;

18.
• His introduction of politically correct language for the war on terror and terrorists;

19.
• His distributing waivers from Obamacare as a reward for companies that support the Democrats and their policies (e.g. Olive Garden restaurants and hundreds more). This tells volumes about the purported “benefits” of healthcare;

20.
• His administration pressuring a four-star Air Force general to change his testimony before the House Armed Services Strategic Forces Subcommittee to make it more favorable to a company tied to a large Democratic donor;

21.
• His apparent lack of concern about the life of the unborn, the life of the terminally ill and the reality and struggles of the American people;

22.
• His stopping the deportation of illegal immigrants (according to the principles of the Dream Act) although this Act was not passed by Congress;

23.
• His violations of federal campaign and ethics laws, including the offers from his administration to Democratic U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak, who reported he was offered a high-ranking government job to drop his opposition in the Pennsylvania Senate primary to sitting Sen. Arlen Specter;

24.
• His effort “to persuade the [Illinois] governor to fill the vacated Senate seat with his longtime adviser Valerie Jarrett.”;

25.
• His acceptance of at least $33.8 million for his campaign from disallowed foreign contributions, including 520 contributions from interests in Iran as well as $30,000 from the Hamas-controlled Gaza area;

26.
• His rewarding with ambassadorships or high ranking jobs more than 70 individuals who raised $50,000 or more for him;

27.
• His opposition to raising the debt limit, when he was a Senator, and his support for it when President;

28.
• His spending of tax money for buying buses made in Canada for a pre-election tour in 2011;

29.
• His inability to connect with people as a person who tells the truth in spite of personal or political consequences;

30.
• His unfulfilled promise to allow for legislation to appear on the web for five days before being signed;

31.
• His approval of QE1, a $1.7 Trillion dollar “quantitative Ease of the money supply” that caused widespread inflation in the US and in Europe in 2010;

32.
• His unfulfilled promise to stop earmarks;

33.
• His unfulfilled promise, in his inauguration speech, that “Transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency.”;

34.
• His unfulfilled promise to maintain the unemployment rate below 8%, after his 2009 “Stimulus package” was passed;

38.

40.

41.
• His inability to make decisions, but postponing the inevitable;

42.
• His inability to explain his fake Connecticut Social Security Number;

43.
• His acceptance of funds as a “Foreign student” at Occidental College, when he was supposedly a natural born citizen;

44.
• His mixed messages, such as his Proclamations of 9-11 (National Patriot Day) as “National Day of Service and Remembrance” as well as Sept. 9 to 11 as “National Days of Prayer and Remembrance”; (note: the original lists Grandparent’s Day, but Carter proclaimed that one and it occurs on the second Sunday in September)

45.
• His appointment of a Monsanto VP as adviser to the FDA;

46.
• His associations with socialists (Bill Ayers), a left wing extremist church (Jeremiah Wright), corrupt politicians (Rod Blagojevich) and corrupt developers (Tony Rezko);

47.
• His continuation of Chicago politics by the appointment of “czars” and White House staff that are ideologically compatible friends and do not have the experience required for the job;

48.
• His objective of transforming America into a European type country where government controls the private sector;

49.
• His sudden and unchecked impulse towards nationalizing private industries and selling shares to the Unions at preferential price;

50.
• His inability to listen to opposing points of view and leading the demonization of talk radio;

51.
• His class warfare and attack on “the rich” not understanding that their money also creates jobs, and that taxing 100% of their profits would not make a dent on the national debt;

52.
• His signing a UN treaty on carbon taxes without authorization from Congress and the people;

53.
• His inability to see the Constitutional limits to government, making him a prospect for an authoritarian dictatorship, given four more years;

54.
• His staunch support of gun restrictions, at the same time as the Gunrunner (Fast & Furious) Project is under investigation;

55.
• His ignorance in running a company or meeting a payroll;

56.
• His lack of military experience;

57.

60.
• His (and his wife’s) apparent contempt for the American Flag;

61.
• His mocking of Christian Americans;

62.
• His connection with ACORN.
_____

Do not forget to praise him for allowing our armed forces to continue the fight in Afghanistan and giving them the go-ahead to capture Osama Bin Laden.

Had to correct one minor inaccuracy, but all in all, I believe this should be enough repeating of mean things about Obama(THHO) that AttackWatch.com should place me on a watch list for sure this time.
