Free advertising for the Pelham event from the Montgomery Advertiser. Wait 'til they get a load of my speech.

The Monky Advertiser sez: "Time for straight shooting on gun laws." I agree, but perhaps not quite in the same way they mean.

My comment at the editorial:

I trust the Advertiser will send a reporter to the Pelham event and have him stick around for my speech at 4PM. I will be talking on the subject of the national armed civil disobedience movement that is evident in states such as CT, CO, NY, MD, TX and now, thanks to Michael Bloomberg, in Washington state. It is a given in American jurisprudence that an unconstitutional law is null and void. The trick is how do we maintain our rights when all the branches of government in a given state -- the legislative, judicial and executive backed up by their willing handmaidens in the press (try looking in a mirror) -- are in the hands of people whom the Founders would deem "domestic enemies of the Constitution."

The residents of the aforementioned states have answered that question by refusing to comply and daring the "authorities" to do anything about it. And the politicians don't know whether to defecate or go blind. So they have passed laws they dare not enforce upon armed people who will not comply. This is as dangerous as it gets. Just ask the ghost of British General Thomas Gage.

Anonymous said...: Another stupid article about "sensible" gun laws. First of all, the gun death rate... I am willing to bet that the AL gun death rate, assumming it is in fact accurate (the CDC wouldn't lie right??) probably includes suicides by firearms and self defense shootings. I bet that if a gun was found at the scene of the crime, they are counting it as a firearm related death even if the person might not have died by a gun.

The motor vehicle death rate in AL was like 17.9 per 100,000 people in 2012 while the gun death rate was 17.7 per 100,000. Granted, I thought the car death rate was higher, and I am sure that doesn't include people whose lives are permanetly messed up by vehicle accidents (paralyzed, etc.). However, no one wants to have a "sensible" dicussion about our cars. No one in liberal intelligensea is advocating a return to non vehicle Amish lifestyles lest another teen die in his or her new car.; February 18, 2015 at 10:26 PM

Yeah Right ... as long as it in NOT loaded!

Surely such Editors should not be allowed to have lead in their pencils ...

"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.
