Torpedo Los! The last four fish fired in the Toys for Totalitarians campaign: Josh Horwitz of CSGV, Dan Gross of the Brady Bunch, Josh Sugarmman of VPC and Ron Pinciaro of CT Against Gun Violence.

The last four fish fired in the final salvo of the Toys for Totalitarians program hit together today in a time-on-target delivery. Josh Sugarmann of the Violence Policy Center (he of the invention of the term "assault weapon") received his at 3:30 PM Eastern and was signed for by A. Palmer. Dan Gross of the Brady Bunch got his at 3:28 PM and was signed for by L. Pena. Government-monopoly-of-violence advocate Josh Horwitz of CSGV received his at 7:43 PM Eastern Standard and was signed for by "J JJ." Ron Pinciaro of CT Against Gun Violence had his delivered to his PO Box in Southport CT where it is awaiting a signature. Let the howling begin.

Here is the letter that accompanied them all:

Re: Your award in the Sipsey Street Irregulars Toys for Totalitarians Campaign.

Congratulations! Enclosed you will find my belated Christmas gift to each of you, one twenty-eight-round standard capacity AR-15 magazine in 7.62x39 caliber, manufactured by C Products Defense, Inc. of Bradenton, Florida. You have been awarded this gift as part of what my friend David Codrea calls my “Toys for Totalitarians Campaign.” We had a few magazines left over after sending them to the governors of Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland and New York (and various other domestic enemies of the Constitution from among the ranks of state politicians and so-called journalists), so we decided to select a few of the most egregious collectivist citizen disarmament advocates who likewise deserved our scorn, and you four tied for first place!

I selected a magazine for you in the caliber of 7.62x39, for that is the round originally designed for Mikhail Kalashnikov‘s AK-47. Given your tyrannical collectivist politics, I thought it was an appropriate choice, since Kalashnikov was an unrepentant Soviet to the end of his days. (Kalashnikov, of course, just crossed over to meet his Maker. I’m sure his conversation with God about Stalin was an interesting one.) From one collectivist to others, I thought. Dulce et decorum est.

Anyway, now that you’ve accepted a piece of technology that is illegal within the confines of the District of Columbia (and the state of Connecticut) you are in violation of the law. Why don’t you all go down and turn yourselves in for arrest. I mean, if you are intellectually honest you would, right? Oh, wait, the terms “intellectually honest” and citizen disarmament advocacy cannot properly be used in the same sentence, now can they?

As for myself I will continue my campaign of armed civil disobedience -- including smuggling -- against this latest spate of tyrannical state laws. You should understand that there is no unconstitutional law that you can pass that we Three Percenters will not find a way to defy, resist, evade or smuggle in nullification of it. Of course you can insist that armed men come to our homes to work your violent will upon us, but then there’s no telling how that will turn out. Starting a civil war seems an odd way to “prevent violence.“ The central point is that we’re done backing up from the free exercise of our traditional, God-given, natural and inalienable rights to liberty, property and life. Your oft-repeated appetites for those will have to be self-curbed. That is certainly preferable to the alternative. May I suggest a voluntary twelve-step program for your power addiction as the kinder option?

Sincerely, and hoping you have a happy socialist Kwanzaa (a holiday invented by an FBI COINTELPRO stooge),

Ghandi was right and I look forward to the end - where they finally give it a rest and agree with you.

Mike, the silence about this effort is truly thunderous.
Not even one has has the guts to return it much less offer a response.

One more thing, have you considered sending just one more torpedo, to a particular reporter who interviews your blog? Such a delivery ought to draw a terse bit of "journalism" from her ......; January 2, 2014 at 10:03 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
