Just saw this:
OMG! THE SENATE & CONGRESS JUST HAD A MOMENT OF SILENCE FOR THE JAN.6 ATTACK. IN MEMORIAM FOR THE 3 DOORS & 5 WINDOWS THAT WERE KILLED.

Depending on what media outlets you follow, the the Senate filibuster will fall meaning the DimocRats’ federal For The People voter fraud act will “pass” (you no longer need to vote; the Dims will do that for you); or the filibuster is safe, and states will still set their own election rules as directed by the Constitution.
If there are any remaining Constitutionalist Senators (not mine, who got elected through the very unlawful process that the Dims want to enshrine nationally), I suggest some FTP amendments should it look at if it’s going to a vote.
If: No voter ID
Then: No gun buyer ID
If: Mail-in voting
Then: Mail order guns (again; we used to do that)
If: Secret ballots
Then: Secret purchases; no more 4473s
If: No proof of residency or citizenship
Then: Ditto for firearm purchases
If: Felons vote
Then: Felons buy guns (they do anyway, and places like Chiraq and NYC don’t even prosecute anymore)
Sure, I’m dreaming; and you can probably come up with plenty of other if/thens. But I’d like to see 1) if tehre’s anyone left in the Senate with a semblance of integrity and consistency, and 2) if there’s anyone on the Dim side who might go, “Whoa. Wait.”
Doubtful, on either point.
Conversely, If the Second Amendment’s “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State” means that the 2A is a collective right of state militias, instead of the SCOTUS-approved individual rights meaning, then Article 1, Section 2 (The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States…) just as much makes voting “collective.” “People,” not individuals; “States,” not individual voters.
Let states collectively elect Representatives as opposed to the current, improperly individualistic direct elections. Why not? Section 4 says that states can run the elections anyway they want: The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof;. A leftwing collectivist approach to electing Represenntatives would be consistent with the original Constitutional provision that legislatures — not direct vote by the state’s populace — choose Senators.
A confuused lefty might look at this…
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.
…and get the idea that voting should be by individuals because they talking about the numbers of individuals in each state. Not so; that merely determines how many Representatives the legislatures choose.
Some will probably claim that the 19th amendment clearly indicates individual vote, but I argue that means they vote for their state legislators who then elect Representatives and Senators for their constituents just as they pass laws and confirm appointees on behalf of those same constituents.
But I suppose a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds whoe expect words mean what they say, laws to mean what they say, and fricking DimocRats to mean whatb they say.
Emerson was full of shit. Pythagora may have been misunderstood, because the concepts he was explaining were new and difficult. Dim redefinitions cause misunderstanding because they are lying to obfuscate well-understood things that had been understood for centuries.
Your psychosis does not trump physical reality.
Reportedly, this delusional fuck is serious, not just trolling. I rather liked this reply.
I’m starting a new company called 24andme where you send me some saliva and tell me what you want the results to be. I’m gonna be doing my MONEY DANCE!
Medical bills are still trickling in, on top of everything else. For what I know of so far, I’m in need of at least $350 by February 1.
I’m putting an AR-pattern rifle up for sale. Continue reading Bills and Sales
I’m trying to get back into the swing of things.
Over at The Zelman Partisans:
MEXICAN GUNRUNNERS TRAFFICKING US GUNS
No, not the NGO cartels. The Mexican army.
If my body will just cooperate, I have another column in the works.
Or so he said. Lessee…
I lost my paying gig.
I’m at nearly nearly record level broke.
Had to replace my phone (thanks, folks).
I got my hip replaced. (I’ve settled most of the bills, so far. I had some generous contributions –mostly family — which went to paying off the large ambulance bill. I have another post-surgical follow-up appointment this month, and I have a choice between paying for that or paying for another month of Internet service.)
Blogging and columns are still sadly lacking because it’s uncomfortable to sit long enough to properly research stuff. Standing is a little better, but I still have to lay down and get the weight off my hip.
Inflation? All a figment of my imagination. The administration assures us it has nothing to do with the trillions in funny money they pumped into the system. It’s all greedy companies raising prices for no good reason.
The shortages at the stores have nothing to do with the supply chain issues Joe already fixed. We’re all just buying stuff so fast they can’t keep the shelves stocked.
But hey! I’m off the walker and the cane. <i>And</i> the oxycodone. Thanks, Joe!
Not actually a bleg. I gave that up when I realized I should have called my hip a transmission. I’ll start selling stuff. Got an AR and a pile of ammo that ain’t doing nothing (can’t afford range fees either).
So how did Prez Xiden improve your life?
WATCH: WHO chief gives New Year’s speech, claims one thing needs to end in order to end pandemic
“The longer inequity continues, the higher the risks of the virus evolving in ways we can’t prevent or predict,” he said. “If we end inequity freedom, we end the pandemic.”
FIFY, totalitarian scumbag.
I guess she’s just projecting.
If Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet.
Ya creepy weirdos
Hon, I’ve dated women much better looking than you. And they were even intelligent and had pleasant personalities. So that’s three strikes against you.
Dream on.
I got a pair of shoes for Christmas. I guess my niece noticed what my current Chinese-made pieces of crap looked like.
Skechers. They look like decent footgear… But when I opened the box, what I first noticed was the prominent green tag attached.
“Vegan”
Sure ’nuff, no animal products in these puppies.
They are, however, 100%, totally petroleum-based. Yeah, all man-made petrochemical synthetics. Ah, well; these are Chinese-made, too, so at least the pollution from production is over there.
Hey, Skechers. Your virtue signalling needs a little work.
Where’ve they been all these years?
ACLU calls to CANCEL Elf on the Shelf for normalizing surveillance
The Elf on the Shelf, a holiday tradition celebrated by countless families with young children around the world, is being called creepy, invasive, and dangerous by numerous groups, who say that it’s teaching children the wrong lessons about surveillance.
I thought it was creepy the very first time I heard it was a thing. And I’ve been pointing it out since.
