Sipsey Street Irregulars: "You're talking to a Fed and he's talking to an idiot." Somebody's elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor.

"You're talking to a Fed and he's talking to an idiot." Somebody's elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor.

The following link was sent to me with this comment:

I got this one by way of Weasel Zippers. You know the saying, "If someone says, "Sure, I can get you all the guns and explosives you want, no problem!", you're talking to a Fed . . . And he's talking to an idiot."? A man who claimed to be a member of the KKK is standing trial for an alleged plot to assassinate President Obama, using a 'Death ray machine'. He was supplied the parts to build the 'death ray' by a federal snitch. . . I'm reminded of this classic cartoon.

"KKK member built death-ray machine to kill Muslims and Obama, prosecutors say."

It's gotten this bad when a Hollywood writer scripts it in for the eloi.; August 19, 2015 at 6:06 AM

#2-If I were stoopid enough to plot anything with a second person, and that person were to come up to me with an offer of "I can get you X, Y, and Z right now", as soon as they left, I would call the FiBbIes and rat out their rat. hehehehe. Throw a wrench in their works.

Some things never change - I assume the tactic gives the feds what they want, or they'd stop doing it.; August 19, 2015 at 9:41 AM

She had found a "rape kit" bag in the attic filled with porn, handcuffs ropes and assorted filth. It tipped her off that something was very wrong. We didn't date for long after she told me that as I'd just as soon stay in once piece and not make waves in those waters.; August 19, 2015 at 9:45 AM
Anonymous said...: Saw that exact same scene on NCIS last night and the part where they toed the administration's line (lie) that, "but that (F&F) was just an accident".....I too was just walking through the room.

I made the wife turn it off.; August 19, 2015 at 9:53 AM
Anonymous said...: Will any proof of the functionality of this "death-ray" machine be shown to jurors? 'Cause if I was on that jury you'd have to show me that such a gadget actually functioned. Otherwise, pretty soon, anyone who's a little screwy upstairs might think he can sail past the U.N. in a jet-suit and shoot up the place, and then be arrested and convicted of a plot to - you guessed it - fly past the U.N. in a jet-suit with intentions of killing those inside with a machine gun. The machine gun may exist, but that jet-suit thing? And let's not forget the "invisibility cloak"....; August 20, 2015 at 1:37 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.
