Attack of Batman's troll.

Holy troll, Batman!

Lefty with a Gun

Where's the Batman adult supervision? Robin's a troll, certainly.

Anonymous said...: I used to read an internet gun discussion board with self-proclaimed lofty ideals of civility in discourse. One of the popular recurring themes in its "activism" topic was the idea of "taking an anti to the range" to try to win over converts.

If a leftard asshole tried to do to me in real life what he does to me every time he enters a voting booth, I'd have a pretty good case for using lethal force in self defense. It is a stupid idea to put a gun in the hands of any of these collectivist vermin.; June 16, 2015 at 12:24 AM
Robin said...: Holy cats, you guys have lost it. I submit that you are trolls and I'm not. I am a retired Army officer with 25 years of service and missing body parts because of that service. I did two tours with the 82d Abn Div and spent a lot of time laying in the jungles of Central America. I didn't see you there. Where were you?
Apparently, polite disagreement is no longer good enough for all of you. You have become the "True Believers" that you constantly berate. I was attempting to warn you that you are becoming what you hate. Apparently, you didn't get my point. My mistake. Sorry.; June 16, 2015 at 8:55 AM
Robin said...: Sir, Please do me the courtesy of reviewing your commenters so you can see that I've supported you in the past. Also, please re-read the comment tread. I asked a polite question, I didn't call anyone any names, and I replied courteously. I have never hidden my identity or my disagreements, so I am definitely not a troll. You can contact me personally, if you want. My email is upper56@yahoo.com. I am a 59 year old, Christian, retired Military Intelligence Major, and I don't like being made out to be a bad guy when I am one of the good guys. Why you called me a troll, I don't know.
Knowing that you do your research, I invite you to read (or re-read) Eric Hoffer's The True Believer. Mr. Codrea's response to my inquiry and subsequent comments is in line with Mr. Hoffer's descriptions and supposition. It is as if he is going out of his way to prove my point. Why would anyone call their supporters derogatory names? It is counter-productive.; June 16, 2015 at 9:44 AM
THEBigFatPanda said...: Anyone who is willing to admit that having a gun to protect yourself is a damn good idea is ok in my book. We can work on her other strange beliefs later. :)

BTW, I understand totally her comment about popping the next person over but not acting on it. When I got my first CCW, as I sat reassembling my pistol after cleaning it, a wave of emotion overcame me when it suddenly hit me full force I was holding the power of life and death in my hands. Very sobering feeling.; June 17, 2015 at 10:23 AM

"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.
