Cowboys And Aliens

Wow.  I had so many angles re titles for this.  I don't pick titles to be cute, but I often offer headlines that grab attention and I hope, through my work, to get people to think and then do.

And believe me, it's an effort to actually NOT publish more blog entries.  I have many thoughts but so little time.  It's not a cop out.  I've often said this place is either a palette for a portrait or an appetizer for a main course.  So many others are prolific.  Go to David Codrea's War On Guns and go down the list. I do. 

As for my time , it is spent as said before, working on my career.  Selfish?  No.  I know where I'm best able to do something.  And I meet a lot of people on the way as I sow seeds along my path.  Still there is more, but I prefer to let things be.   The Earth turns, with each and every one of us playing a part, no matter how small, in events as it does.  And believe this, doing nothing is playing a part, albeit negative.

The border mess is multileveled collectivism.  First, it causes immediate chaos and destruction in the Southwest.  Then, illegal aliens are distributed throughout the country.  Gang members are prominent among the illegals.  Increased violence such as rape robbery and murder happen as sidekicks to the drug trade.  There is also health threat from so many streaming here.  These lead to some brownie points for our commies.

The infrastructure is compromised.  Millions of voters could swell the ranks and turn an election tide for collectivists on both sides of the aisle.  More jobs are robbed from Americans and put into the hands of people whose allegiance is either to another country or to the 'what's in it for me' bunch.

Gang activity is rising nationwide.  Ruthless monsters, both domestic and foreign have infused the cities.  This can demoralize many and fuel the fire of gun control. 

There is nothing racist nor cruel regarding the cold hard facts. And those 'kid's coming here?  Many are teens and quite a few of those are gang tied.  It's the same statistic stuffing that goes on re gun deaths.

What can you do?  Expose this.  Be relentless in sharing the facts and counter the collectivist broad brush of making the illegals saints and anyone opposing them sinners.

Reveal gang activity and insist we have the right to defend ourselves.  Urge the cops and their statist bosses to target the criminals and not decent honest citizens.

We are a country of many races, faiths and cultures.  We band for the common hope of Freedom and self determination.  That even at one time included several illegals who came with the hope of ctual earned citizenship and taking the subsequent oath seriously.

Don't let the outlaws make criminals of you!

Do not be afraid and keep your chin up.

Refuse tyranny.

The Constitution including the Bill of Rights is our rope.

Let's lasso the rascals and stop the invasion.

Resist and pick your battles on all levels.

Last Resort

This short lived series is quite a thrill ride.  And like most entertainment (I urge folks to remember this is just that.  It is speculative fiction at best, though well done.), it is piqued to keep you on the edge of your seat.  It delivers.

Don't think I'm going off half cocked like keyboard commandos,  this show tells a highly fictionalized account of nuclear confrontation.  It mixes DC intrigue, Russian and Chinese attempted stealing of a US nuclear sub.

Below is a Wikipedia page that gives fairly straightforward plot and other production data.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Resort_(U.S._TV_series)  These always cut off the last parenthesis.  It'll take you to choices and you can find the link there.  Or cut and paste.

Also here are some viewer reviews at IMDB.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2172103/reviews?start=0 

Decide for yourself what you think re probability, accuracy etc.  I'm interested in impressions.

Could a corrupt President and members of the Cabinet conspire to create a crisis dire enough for nuclear attack?  Could a sub Captain question orders?  Could US military oppose one another?  Would other countries try to take advantage?  Could loyalties/allegiances be divided under stress?  What do you think? I'm not asking for discussion here.  This blog serves as an appetizer, whereas the main courses are dished up elsewhere.

So see Last Resort and think, seek, ask those who know.  And remember, it is only the delusional who think they 'know the score' after viewing such pieces or reading spy/military novels.  You cannot become specops after watching/reading nor anything else, save for training and actual experience.  Same for gun use and close quarter combat/fighting.  If you want to defend yourself well, learn how from competent instructors.  Never to late to learn nor add to the toolbox.

Good fiction should be thought provoking.  Dig, read and research.  Ask those who have been in real situations, but only as far as they can tell you.

Also, remain positive lest events in reality let alone fiction, flock to disillusion and lead you to give up.  Don't buy that bad loaf.

Look for a message in the ravioli.

Always seek truth.

Something Is Rotten

On all levels something is rotten in these united States.  Sounds almost obvious and simple.  Yes and no.

Those who study history know that while outer pressure, political and military machinations, etc are part of the chessboard, it's the internal 'struggles' (such a fave term among collectivists) that bring a country down.  It is the enemy within.

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague." Marcus Tullius Cicero

Not all of the story, as traitors pretty clearly are evident.  They attempt to do as Cicero says, but analysis shows them as the two faced pretenders and liars they are.  In fact, the current occupier of the Oval Office is pretty blatant.

These red diaper babies and elitists think they have it made.  They believe we who hold to the Republic will eventually fall, especially soon as the guns are gone.  Ain't gonna happen.  We must keep lighting the dark corners of their collectivist plans.

I keep urging folks to study the enemy.  A good place to start is with the Communist Manifesto and Alinsky's Rules for Radicals.  Believe me, these mokes study us and our documents in order to subvert The Republic.  Studying this stuff doesn't make you a collectivist, nor nuts (mutually exclusive -s-?).  It is simply part of history.  And again vis a vis Sun Tzu, study your enemy and yourself, as it were.

Note the predominate insulting and ridicule via Rule number 5.  It goes on ad infinitum like some kind of hi-speed automated dung flinger.  We stand for something and it's the job of subversionists to counter it.

The cure for this is to use their tactics against them.  Bit by bit, we fight that enemy that never sleeps.  We must continue to sleep less and reclaim the Republic. 

Our difference is we are based in truth.  Collectivists are ensconced in lies and half truths.  They can and are countered and beaten.  I believe we can win the final victory.  But finality is only as good as vigilance.

They also appeal as we know to emotion, eschewing logic/reason.  We should remember that reason is the key for victory.  But we should balance head and heart, for just cold facts need personality to convince the truth.

The internal battle includes so many facets.  Collectivism, like cancer attaches to healthy cells and indeed rots them from within. 

Disarm us, flood the country with people who are heavily infiltrated with criminals and factionalize.  No more E Pluribus Unum.  We become a house divided.  And oh yes, destroy the economy with socialized medicine and hindering American business.

It is a matter of Countering these things.

Nobody said it was easy.  But how far have we come and where do we want to go?

When something goes rotten, we toss it.  And we replace it with the freshness of Freedom/Liberty forever!

Rape

It's unbelievable.  Then again, as with collectivists, every day is opposite day, as David Codrea says.

My ex saw someone with a button stating 'I'd Rather Be Raped Than Carry a Gun'.  She didn't have a chance to talk to this woman.  But it did cause a reaction.

She wondered if this person had actually ever been raped.  Degradation and violation, with soul killing results following this evil act.  My ex was raped at the age of six.  It has taken her much time to work through and triumph over this. 

Rape is among the most emotional issues.  It is vile, an attempt to rob the victim of everything dear and human.  Violence doesn't cover it.  It can destroy not just the victim, it makes victims of the friends and family as well.  Hats off to those who work each day to help victims heal, survive and be victorious.

For someone to say think or have a button stating a horrid preference is unthinkable, to those of us who choose to defend ourselves.  And I won't go into detail.   It's just stupid.

Liberals/collectivists seem to be inviting rape with their naïve notions of what to do.

Whistles, vomiting and urination are given to supposedly stop a rapist. 

Resistance is important.  I suggest women./girls and men/boys get as much training with firearms and close quarter fighting as they can.   Also condition yellow is basic.  Wary and aware of surroundings, trying to stick to well traveled places etc are essential. 

It is our right to defend ourselves.  It's endemic, natural, God given and only enumerated in the Bill of Rights. 

Far as rape goes, we are assaulted with half baked and cockamamie ideas from those who cannot conceive horrible reality.  We are inundated with collectivist tricks and schemes constantly.  Go toe to toe withthem and speak the truth.

I do not wish rape on anyone.  But some will suffer because they won't admit it can happen to them.

Further, don't be silent.  These are secrets we must not keep.  Get help if it happens and prepare to fight in the future.

Don't let rapists win by killing your spirit.
