Gun Control

OpEd: If ‘Gun Control’ Doesn’t Disarm the Government, It Is Authoritarian Propaganda

By Ryan Delarme, June 18, 2022

Globalist and political opportunist Canadian PM Justin Trudeau recently announced across-the-board handgun sale bans for the entire nation.

The economic sanction should come as no surprise, since Trudeau has openly professed his deep admiration for the Chinese government specifically because of – not in spite of — its totalitarian nature. The authoritarian human rights trampling is the feature, not the bug.

The Canadian police and military that protect the politicians, though, will keep their guns. And they’ll certainly use them to enforce draconian COVID vaxx mandates or carbon lockdowns or whatever other social engineering program comes down the pike next.

The Biden/Harris administration has been looking north – and across the pond at the multinational WEF globalists who really run the show – for guidance.

9mm bullets – which law enforcement officers carry as their standard-issue ammo — are now “high caliber,” according to Joe Biden’s handlers who script his talking points. So you shouldn’t be allowed to have them.

——————————

Mao, Stalin, Hitler, and rest of the roster of infamous dictators of 20th-century have a few common threads. One is a central pillar of their respective governing principles: “gun control – for thee, not for me.”

Yes, above is an unhinged rant in classic Alex Jones fashion – that’s just what he does. But the bombastic delivery doesn’t detract from the salient point: when you allow a monopoly of power in the hands of a concentrated class of sociopathic political elites, what you get is dictatorship, and possibly genocide.

Between the Big Three alone, those dictators have literally hundreds of millions of civilian deaths – not to mention the military casualties of their various wars – on their bloody hands.

Mass murder isn’t restricted to so-called “communist” or “fascist” dictators. The “liberal” US government is historically murderous itself. As Martin Luther King Jr. noted, the US government is indisputably the biggest purveyor of violence in the post-WWII world.

Below is the infamous “Collateral Murder” video that put Wikileaks founder Julian Assange on the map and rendered him the #1 journalistic target of the US security state. It depicts US government personnel gunning down unarmed civilians on purpose and then mopping up first responders when they arrive on the scene:

Estimates put the civilian casualty death count in Iraq alone since the 2003 US invasion (based on WMD lies) at around 200,000. Some put the potential death count much higher, possibly exceeding a million.

Hundreds of thousands of innocent lives were lost – all justified by documented, premeditated government lies and war propaganda to feed the military-industrial complex war machine.

Internally, the largest federal policing agency, the Department of Homeland Security, buys bullets by the billions.

As a domestic law enforcement agency, not a foreign-facing military force, for whom do you suppose those billions of DHS bullets are intended?

——————–

Even if – out of either naivety or a sense of charity they don’t deserve — you don’t want to believe that government actors have evil intent, then consider their incompetence.

For example, during yet another recent mass shooting at a public school, the government proved its unwillingness to “protect and serve.”

A lone incel-type teenager with a single rifle and no body armor killed children one by one uninterrupted in an elementary school classroom. Meanwhile, 19 uniformed cowards with badges and guns and tactical body armor and all kinds of military gear sat on their hands in the hallway because they didn’t want to put themselves in harm’s way.

But the truth is even worse than that: the cops outside the school formed an exclusion zone and handcuffed one mother trying to go in to save her child.

The cowardice and moral depravity – not to mention the dereliction of duty – is almost inconceivable. It boggles the conscience.

This underscores the dark reality: police exist to protect the social and political order, not to serve the interests of average people. They are the Praetorian Guard of the ruling class.

The grassroots right, which unfortunately has traditionally licked the boots of the police, is slowly waking up to that reality as the national security state trains its sights on “domestic extremists” (code for “anyone not on board with the neoliberal multinational WEF model of governance”).

What transpired in Uvalde, and worse, will happen on a macro scale when the only lawful weapons carriers left are so-called law enforcement.

Sitting ducks: the corporate state’s wet dream

The central point can’t be emphasized strongly enough: the government doesn’t want to protect anyone but the elites who pull the strings behind the scenes. They want a submissive, complacent, defanged populace.

What they want is a pack of sitting ducks, unable to defend themselves, kept in a state of continual terror via the Permanent Emergency, waiting to be herded to and fro from crisis to crisis via trauma-based conditioning.

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.”
-H.L. Mencken

Until the weaponized global corporate Deep State now pointing its guns at Americans’ heads is disarmed, no sane American should consider complying with unconstitutional gun bans – regardless of the proffered justification.

Poll Finds That Most Americans Blame Mental Health for Mass Shootings, Not Guns

By Ryan Delarme, June 1, 2022

A Rasmussen Reports poll conducted on Tuesday shows found “40% of likely US voters believe that mental health is more to blame for mass shootings by young men in America,”.

The same poll found that 30% blame “access to firearms”, 10% believe family problems are the cause and another 10% blame social media, though arguably both of those answers could fall under the “mental health” umbrella.

A meager 4% believe Schools are to blame.

The national survey of 1,000 people was conducted May 25-26. The poll has a margin of sampling error of +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% confidence level.

After two recent mass shootings, one at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, and another at an elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, the issues surrounding gun control and school security have become the center of national discourse.

House to Vote on Gun Control Measures Thursday

By Ryan Delarme, May 31, 2022

Ryan DeLarme,
May 31st, 2022

This Thursday the House Judiciary Committee is planning to vote on a new wide-ranging package of gun control measures in the wake of multiple mass shooting events across the nation.

Punchbowl News first reported on the package of bills is known as the “Protecting our Kids” Act.

The package seeks to amend the legal age to purchase a semiautomatic rifle from 18 to 21 years of age. The measures would also establish new federal offenses for gun trafficking and for selling large-capacity magazines. The measures would also allow local governments to compensate individuals who surrender high-capacity magazines through a buyback program.

On top of that, these measures would establish a new tax credit for the sale of safe storage devices. They will also establish new criminal penalties for breaking the proposed requirements on the storage of firearms in residential properties.

The package will likely pass the Democratic-controlled House but is unlikely to overcome a Republican-led filibuster in the Senate.

Congressman Ted Deutch of Florid introduced one of the bills in the package previously alongside Senator Robert Menendez on the Senate side.

The full list of bills included in the “Protecting Our Kids” package was provided by Punch Bowl News and includes:

  • The Raise the Age Act (H.R. 3015, Rep. Anthony Brown of Maryland)
  • Prevent Gun Trafficking Act (H.R. 2280, Rep. Robin Kelly of Illinois)
  • The Untraceable Firearms Act (H.R. 3088, Rep. David Cicilline of Rhode Island)
  • Ethan’s Law (H.R. 748, Rep. Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut)
  • The Safe Guns, Safe Kids Act (H.R. 6370, Rep. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan)
  • The Kimberly Vaughan Firearm Safe Storage Act (H.R. 130, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas)
  • Closing the Bump Stock Loophole Act (H.R. 5427, Rep. Dina Titus of Nevada)

The Keep Americans Safe Act (H.R. 2510, Rep. Ted Deutch of Florida)
