March for Our Lives

I love it.

Marching to dissolve their own natural rights and sacrificing themselves to an entity that cannot protect them and will only write an after-action report when they are killed be it in a shooting, knifing, car accident, or whatever.

Like all Democrats, they deserve no rights, and like Lenin's useful idiots, some day these fucks will be put up against a wall and murdered directly or indirectly by their own communist leaders. That wall might literally be a wall, or a school, or a shopping mall, or a movie theater...

How are we "losing?" When I look at these protests what I see are a bunch of people who were always going to vote for democrats saying they .... are going to vote for democrats.

It's normal that the party in the white house loses seats in an off-year election (though it doesn't always happen.) Given the non-stop anti-Trump barrage we've seen since the middle of 2016 it's likely that some seats will be lost to the Democrats but the likelihood that both houses will go to the D's is pretty low.

Furthermore, for all the Sturm und Drang about gun control, do you see any concrete measures being proposed? Anti-gun protesters are full of ominous threats to incumbents that if they don't "DO SOMETHING!!!!!1!!" the protesters will take it out on them in November, but you know what? November is a LOOOONG way off.

There's a saying that "6 months is an eternity in politics." Quick, without googling, what was the hot political issue 6 months ago? You don't remember and neither does anybody else.

I'm not saying it's a time for complacency or doing nothing, I'm just saying the sky is not falling. ;)

The appearance of numbers can give pause to the milquetoast and undecideds. If they believe the tides are turning, they will turn and be swept up even if the turning tide is but a ripple from a fish fart in actuality.

It's not that the hardcore believers of this claptrap have much power themselves. It's that they project a power they don't have and the idiotes simply believe it without stopping to consider any of the recurring themes of history and popular movements. That lemming-like mentality is where the darts of the enemy's rhetoric will be felt.

Have you seen or read Shakepeare's Coriolanus? There's a brief monologue, where Coriolanus has been banished from Rome, that he describes this issue of the vox populi and how despite their strength of volume they are but weaklings. A few of the rabble whipped the crowd into banishing the one who had won many victories for Rome, leaving them utterly weak by his banishment.

I prefer Ralph Feinnes' version, personally. The older BBC renditions are too Victorian in a reserved way.

You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate
As reek o' the rotten fens, whose loves I prize
As the dead carcasses of unburied men
That do corrupt my air, I banish you;
And here remain with your uncertainty!
Let every feeble rumour shake your hearts!
Your enemies, with nodding of their plumes,
Fan you into despair! Have the power still
To banish your defenders; till at length
Your ignorance, which finds not till it feels,
Making not reservation of yourselves,
Still your own foes, deliver you as most
Abated captives to some nation
That won you without blows! Despising,
For you, the city, thus I turn my back:
There is a world elsewhere.

...and then we have the RINOs, LARPing as politicians via realpolitik, screaming out with stage blood on their faces, "Make you a prop-sword of me!"

Birth rates, and immigration.

The Left can’t outbreed us, even though as a whole Americans are barely replacing themselves. Even then conservative parents are losing their kids politically in the Public Education system, and “Higher” education, that and when you factor the voting practices of the Left, and immigration policies for the past 50 years. Kid can be raised “Right” then gets his/her head full of socialist, Marxist indoctrination for 13 - 18 years of “education” and whatever chances Conservative parents had of passing on good values, morals, standards, and ethics are significantly reduced.

We may be winning the small skirmishes now, WH, Senate, House, Supreme Court etc, but we are losing and or have lost the strategic long term battles.

I will count the ways...

1. State level gun control everywhere. CO will have a second round soon if this isn't stopped and you'll wake up one day to NYSafe Act. FL's gun control was passed by GOPers. Signed by a GOP governor. Still no framework for reconciling this with Heller/McDonald. They can't ban all guns, just the popular ones and the necessary components (magazines).

2. A Republican president who supports gun control in contradiction of the promises he made to us (he took his 2A page down). Meaning even when we manage to win a presidential election against all odds we still can't protect gun rights.

3. Republican Congresscritters who support gun control.

But the absolute worst...

4. The complete lack of leadership both from our Conservative political representation and the gun rights organizations (NRA). You talk about Democrats always being Dims but aren't realizing that gun control is no longer just a Democrat issue, the Republicans have joined in. No one is keeping it a wedge issue and gun owners have been abandoned.


Now, if I thought it was just about guns, I wouldn't be so alarmed. Some people lose their hobby which is sad. Life goes on. But it's not just about guns. And the same people/groups who partnered on this march are saying all sort of anti-American things about who gets what rights and even who gets to exist in their planned utopia.

They want AR-15s because they know it's what we would use to defend our communities. Look at the signs. That is what they are targeting. Guns that "kill" +/- 400 a year in a country of 320,000,000. They oscillate between WEAPONS OF WAR! and "you can't use that against the military." They willfully ignore all the data and statistics. It's not even rational policy at this point and that's why we can't have a debate or compromise.

But if they want a soft enemy, it's strategic. And that means there is a lot more on the horizon.

Read BP's signline. It really is that simple.

This deserves a thread all of its own.


This little libtard tweeted this out, yet seems to have no clue about Tianamen Square, or that millions of baby girls were murdered just after they were born because they were deemed weaker than males and therefore not as productive in physical labor as males, or that there is no freedom of speech or right to protest and no ability for Chinese citizens to protect themselves against genocide fron their own government. Clearly knows nothing Mao either. [emoji849]

The stupid hurts.

What a delightful little snowflake. Maybe a Chicom will come along and shoot her in the head or starve her to death, being as those are Chicom specialties.

You know, this easily could have been posted in the already going March thread.

+1 It's a good contribution to that thread. We were already talking about how "educated" the marchers are. This fits right in.

She lacks even a basic grasp of history and human rights around the world. Likely one of the "PATRIARCHY" screechers who ignores the systemic rape and torture of women around the world while moaning about the glass ceiling in the US.
