It stands against common-sense car-control laws that would save tens of thousands of lives a year!
W
ho needs a car that travels over 30 miles per hour, or has a transmission that's fully automatic? Such deadly assault speed only increases the number of people a car can kill.
But AAA does nothing but advance the murderous car culture that says it's all right to barrel down the road so quickly and easily.
Yeah, tell that to the loved ones of the 37,461 children and adults killed by cars in 2016, or the 35,485 killed in 2015, or the 32,744 killed in 2014, etc. Millions upon millions of lives lost due to Americans' love of cars.
We must do something — now — to stop it! And we could were it not for AAA.
AAA members undeservedly enjoy many perks and discounts which their irresponsible organization extracts from a number of American corporations and businesses. Rental and insurance companies, airlines and hotels, and all the others that have affiliated themselves with it in some way or another, should know they are willfully supporting a group that literally thrives on getting more and more Americans behind the wheel of those incredibly dangerous cars.
When has AAA called for a complete ban on fully automatic transmissions? Never.
When has it demanded a nationwide, all-road 30 MPH speed limit? Never.
But doing either would save countless lives.
It's almost as if AAA is intent on seeing even more people die.
Until cars are allowed to be in the hands of only government employees and military personnel, no American child or adult will be safe. It may not be good for AAA, but it's what's best for all of us.
Save lives. Destroy AAA!
(Next: the other NRA — National Restaurant Association — for standing in the way of common-sense food control.)
hat other "last resort" options would Demøbrats leave women? "Pretend you enjoy it"?
Obviously, they would rather help violent criminals create more government-dependent victims than allow any citizen the opportunity to fully exercise her God-given right to choose whichever means of self-defense she believes is best for her.
It's more proof of the Demøcreeps's War on Potential Rape Victims.
When it comes to Colorado Democrats and rape, though, the Democrats lately seem to have placed themselves on the side of the rapists. Democrat Rep. Joe Salazar, when discussing women and rape on college campuses was more concerned about the rapists being hurt by ditzy women than he was about women getting raped. And the University of Colorado offered self-defense advice that never even contemplated the possibility that a woman could defend herself with arms. This [so-called] advice ranged from run to vomit.
There was a lot of talk last Fall about a supposed "war on women." If anyone is interested in a real war on women, they should keep an eye on Colorado, which is doing its best to keep ditzy women entirely at the mercy of their attackers.
As always, their tyrannical agendas trump everybody's security and freedoms.
I
n the liberal's "mind," there is no choice between personal liberty and public safety. Both can be summarily sacrificed together on the altar of extremist ideology if it means exploiting any opportunity at all to tighten even more brutishly their oppressive control over everything everybody does, says, and thinks. For them, that end justifies any and all means, including helpfully recommending to their criminal colleagues the best places to look when acquiring new weapons and creating new victims:
Reformed crooks say the New York newspaper that published a map of names and addresses of gun owners did a great service — to their old cronies in the burglary trade.
The information published online by the Journal-News, a daily paper serving the New York suburbs of Westchester, Rockland and Putnam counties, could be highly useful to thieves in two ways, former burglars told FoxNews.com. Crooks looking to avoid getting shot now know which targets are soft and those who need weapons know where they can steal them.
Rockland County Sheriff Louis Falco, who spoke at a news conference flanked by other county officials, said the Journal News' decision to post an online map of names and addresses of handgun owners Dec. 23 has put law enforcement officers in danger.
"They have inmates coming up to them and telling them exactly where they live. That's not acceptable to me," Falco said, according to Newsday.
If a soldier gave away his buddies' exact positions and let the enemy know precisely what's in their arsenals, he would be justifiably court-martialed and hung as a filthy traitor. When extremely selfish and greedy totalitarian liberals(birm) do essentially the same thing to thousands of law-abiding American citizens, willfully and maliciously intending to destroy the common-sense safeguards those citizens reasonably expect to always enjoy, one-way climbs up the scaffold would be an equally fit and effective punishment.
It is an indefensibly abusive exercise of First Amendment rights to endanger individual citizens and the public alike as the liberal Journal-News' fascists(birm) are presently doing. Like anybody crying "Fire!" in a crowded theater, screaming "Stealable Guns Here!" and "Defenseless Homes Here!" in a crowded community is extremely reckless. He knows or should know that he's substantially and materially aiding and abetting criminals. Which everybody who isn't a liberal totally brain dead now realizes, is something liberals forever are inclined to do anyway.
Gun metaphors don't kill people. People kill people Bullet metaphors do.
O
ne of the many, many, many, ..., many, many concepts that, no, liberals can't ever seem to grasp is that if you outlaw the use of gun metaphors, only outlaws will have the use of gun metaphors.
But to truly sensible people, real gun metaphor control means use both lips!
Consequently, liberals think feeeeel that limiting phrases with gun metaphors to once or twice per month, or requiring gun metaphor manufacturers to produce only "smart" gun metaphors, will somehow prevent or at least reduce Gun Metaphor Violence™. That's almost as nutty as their idea of forcing us to put trigger metaphor locks on our mouths or keep our gun metaphors disassembled or locked in some word safe.
Instead of coming after our gun metaphors, how about they go after the murderers and rapists of our language who, for the sole purpose of permanently silencing any and all public criticism of their loony liberal whacked out "ideas" political correctness gain, connivingly and hypocritically rail against the use of gun metaphors?
Now that makes sense.
Of course, liberals always fire from the hip or shoot themselves in the foot whenever they think feeeeeeeel they've come up with a bang-up, silver-bullet "solution" that best targets whatever "problem" — usually of their own creation — they're placing in their twisted crosshairs today.
ust let your children and grandchildren make all the payments.
Former Senator Øfascist is the most stupid person ever to polish an Oval Office chair with his butt "brain."
The country has no money to spend on extravagant non-necessities like his Super Dooper Railway, Yay!™ which no one will ever use unless his already over-bloated fascist Democorrupt Party government regime(birm)spends steals from us even more money to bribe, threaten, or outright force We the People Oppressed Subjects™ to use it.
Yet it's "Damn the Tremendous Debt and Deficits. Full Spending Ahead!"®
Ninety percent of all firearms that Mexico asked Nigeria to trace came from Nigeria
Former Senator Teleprompter-for-"Brains"™ "thought" up a "statistic" that he thinks feels further "shows" our country is to blame for all the world's ills. (Come on, you could at least pretend you're surprised.)
This famed "statistic" is that only one in ten guns criminals use in Mexico weren't bought in the United States.
Those same Mexican authorities, while sorting through their piles and piles of seized guns, every now and then come across one stamped "Made in USA." So, under international agreement, they send it to the USA to find out exactly where in the USA it was made and sold. Very logical. Also logical is the conclusion that a gun stamped "Made in USA" has at least a 90 percent chance of being, well, made in the USA.
By the same token, at least 90 percent of the guns Mexican authorities seize which are stamped "Made in Nigeria" will, after the Nigerian government performs traces on them, indeed be guns that came from — you guessed it — Nigeria.
Of course all this involves, you know, logic. So it's really not surprising that a fascist totalitarian progressive liberal(birm) like "Present" Øfascist would so glaringly distort any purportedly related "statistic" that proves nothing except how much of a lying liar, yes, he can be.

“How will Barack Obama and friends fund their plan to spread Joe the Plumber’s wealth? They intend to beat our swords into welfare checks, leaving America exposed to its mortal enemies.”
Second, I will cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending. I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems. I will not weaponize space. I will slow our development of future combat systems, and I will institute an independent defense priorities board to ensure that the Quadrennial Defense Review is not used to justify unnecessary spending.
Third, I will set a goal of a world without nuclear weapons. [How about — first, second, and third — a world without anti-America ignoramuses calling their kumbaya selves "citizens of the world"
at fanatical outdoor rallies in foreign countries?] To seek that goal, I will not develop new nuclear weapons; I will seek a global ban on the production of fissile material, and I will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert and to achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenals. ["Deep cuts" for us, no matter what Russia, China, or anyone else does.]
"And we s— we are spending millions of dollars on missile defense.
"Uh, and I actually believe that we need missile defense because of Iran...
"Iran, Cuba, Venezuala. These countries are tiny. They don't pose a serious threat to us."
...and North Korea, and the potential for them to obtain, uh, uh, uh— or to launch nuclear weapons."

Barack Obama The 45-Year-Old Political Virgin He's Come Too Soon
Barack Obama It's okay to learn on the job
Obama If he can divide us, he'll conquer us!
"I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message."
Jr. 1-term Sen. Gøvt. Dø-Nøthing (besides seeking a tax hike on every citizen of the world too) couldn't pass a background check to get the least sensitive job in our Department of Defense because of his extensive ties to known terrorists. But he wants you to let him be its Führer boss so, yes, he can gut it and unilaterally disarm our country. If he'll do this to all branches of our military, he'll also move on to causing more of the same extremist change at "the FBI, the CIA, the Justice Department, the State Department, in fact, every department, branch, and bureaucrat in the government."
Mr. Obama has supported handgun bans even when they trap people who defend themselves. In a 2003 case, a resident of Wilmette, Ill., used a handgun to defend himself from a burglar with a drug habit and a long criminal record, breaking into his home for the second day in a row. Though authorities found the shooting justified, the armed citizen was charged with possessing a handgun in violation of Wilmette's handgun ban.
Illinois lawmakers proposed legislation that would make self-defense an "affirmative defense" against prosecution for handgun possession in towns like Wilmette. Mr. Obama voted four times against the measure, which passed over his opposition, and over a veto by Illinois' anti-gun governor, Rod Blagojevich, a long-time Obama ally.
Self-defense at home or outside the home — it's all just as bad to Mr. Obama.
In 2004, he said he was "consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry," and that he'd back "federal legislation that would ban citizens from carrying weapons, except for law enforcement." Mr. Obama had already put that anti-self-defense belief into action in 2001, voting against a state Senate bill that would have allowed people who receive protective orders — such as domestic violence victims — to carry firearms. Why? Because, in Mr. Obama's world, "authorizing potential victims to carry firearms would potentially lead to a more dangerous rather than less dangerous situation ... It was a bad idea and I'm glad it failed," he said.
Mr. Obama also claims he's no threat to hunters.
But in 2005, he voted for a ban on all but the smallest rifle ammunition used for hunting (or for anything else). If the measure had passed, it would have classified most rifle ammunition beyond the low-powered .22 caliber as "armor piercing ammunition," prohibited for civilian manufacture by federal law. The ammunition ban was hardly Mr. Obama's first act against hunters, either. In 1999, Mr. Obama proposed increasing firearm and ammunition excise taxes by 500 percent. Right now, a rifle that a manufacturer sells for $500 carries an excise tax of $55. Under Mr. Obama's proposal, that amount would rocket to $330. This would turn a tax willingly paid by sportsmen, which funds many of our wildlife conservation programs, into a tool to punish gun buyers.
Also, while Mr. Obama promises hunters, "I will not take your shotgun away," his votes tell a different story.
In 2003, while serving on the Illinois state Senate's Judiciary Committee, Mr. Obama voted for a bill that would have banned (as so-called "semi-automatic assault weapons") most single-shot and double-barreled shotguns, along with hundreds of models of rifles and handguns. If the bill had passed, any Illinois resident who possessed one of these guns 90 days after legislation went into effect, would have faced felony charges. What was that about not taking shotguns away?
As if voting for anti-gun plans wasn't bad enough, Mr. Obama also helped pay for them. He was a board member from 1994 to 2001 of the anti-gun Joyce Foundation, which is the largest source of funding for radical anti-gun groups in the country. On Mr. Obama's watch, Joyce donated $18.6 million to approximately 80 anti-gun efforts, including $1.5 million to the Violence Policy Center, the nation's most aggressive gun-prohibitionist group. Many of the Joyce Foundation's projects were aimed at editing the Second Amendment out of the Constitution.
Disarming us all is where Jr. 1-term-only Sen. Øbøvernment stands.
He hates Americans in the mainstream opposing his extremist views.
M
ore than between two major party candidates, next month's presidential election is really a set of referendums on each candidate's committed positions, his display of character, and his stated views. Every individual voter chooses which of those measures she wants to see officially enacted and which ones she doesn't, then looks at how well her choices match up with a particular candidate's choices. The greater the match the more likely she'll vote for that candidate.
After comparing the choices I made on the Barack Obama Test with the same ones made publicly by the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate, and seeing how opposed his own are to mainstream Americans' — often extremely so — on all but one of the 50 questioned measures, the above observations congealed. And the more I looked into just how substantively opposed his choices are to practically all of ours, the closer those observations hit home with me.
So what if, after entering the voting booth, rather than simply picking one name from a single list of candidates, it were possible to also have on the same ballot places for punching or touching "yes" or "no" to each such referendum question?
Putting the B.O. Test measures in referendum form, but showing instead which of the two candidates there — mainstream Americans or one-term junior Liberal Socialist Dhimmiqrat Senator Bamarx Husstalin Obamao — wants to see them officially enacted, much of our general election ballot might look as follows right before being cast:

Any candidate who opposes the American people 98 percent of the time on such basic and vital issues can do nothing in office but miserably fail since none of us who love and cherish our personal liberties — that is, the vast majority of all Americans — will ever choose to stand idly by and let him enact what his choice of measures so substantially represent: an extreme change we never need.
A vote for Governor Mike Huckabee is still a vote for real hope and real change as well as "for (the) GOP's future."
I
n the general election, would you vote for the dirty old man or the clean and young one? The senator who's been in Washington, District of Crooks for over a quarter century or the one who still uses a map like normal people to find his way around it? The senator from an extremely lawless-border state or the one from the Land of Lincoln? The cad who cheated on and dumped one of his wives because he didn't like the way she looked after she was mangled in a car crash or the man who's stood by the only wife he's ever known, through thick and thin? Someone born in a foreign country or someone born in the good ol' U. S. of A.?
Texans and Ohioans, that's the choice you'll be giving Americans this November if you vote tomorrow for Juan MqQain'tGonnaWinNothin'.
But you still have a choice and a chance to give us all a much better one.
Mike Huckabee, the former Republican governor of a Southern state, is the only candidate who can win in the general election against a sitting Demoqrat senator from a northern state. The only candidate who has actual executive-branch experience, including in time of war.
A President Huckabee would protect our freedom of speech, including restoring our right to speak out against 25-year incumbents like Juan MqFeingold before elections.
Juan MqQennedyMqAmnesty would continue to do nothing except babble on and on about "needing to restore trust."
[MqQain has] proven his dislike for conservatives and would gut us at every opportunity. Why do I say that? Because of three decades of experience as a Republican California Senator and a fifty year activist in the conservative movement. I have first hand, in-their-face experience with elitist RINO's (Republican in Name Only) office holders. They are biblically ignorant, power hungry, status seeking egotists who have no difficulty aiding their liberal Democrat colleagues whenever their arms are politely twisted. The one thing they have in common with liberal Democrats is their dislike for all conservatives, especially those who are Bible-believing. McCain, as president, would stifle the voices of elected Republican leaders and try to legislate the conservative movement out of existence.
uan Shamnesty MqQain III and Willard Mitt Romney would do something that a President Huckabee never will: Infringe on your right to keep and bear arms.
“(Governor) Huckabee, an ordained Baptist minister, had an appreciative audience today (Sunday in Macon, Georgia) and fed them a diet heavy on conservative staples: abolition of the Internal Revenue Service, opposition to abortion and gay marriage, the need for American military might and an end to reliance on foreign oil.”
"We do have tough gun laws in Massachusetts; I support them," boasted Mr. Romney just five years ago. "I think that if the Congress won't act, the least I can do is support the initiative (to severely regulate gun shows and register gun buyers) in states where it's on the ballot," promised Mr. MqQain in 2000 — "We owe it to our children to be responsible by keeping our guns locked up," proposed Mr. MqQain a year later to the applause of criminal home invaders everywhere.
Governor Mike Huckabee is the only one who has constantly and consistently reaffirmed his executive ability and will in office to preserve, protect, and defend our constitutional rights. "Gun manufacturers make the Second Amendment a viable right rather than some theoretical proposition. I will not abuse my authority as governor to pursue their demise or dictate their business practices through coercion," he vowed the same year Mr. MqQain was promising to support efforts to make that right less viable.
President Huckabee will continue proving himself "to be a steadfast friend to gun owners and the Second Amendment."
Article II, Section 2 of our constitution says the president "shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur." OSHA says, "So?"
G
lobally Harmonized System for the Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, written by United Nations diplocrats, is the so-called authority behind the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's attempt to infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms by defining all firearm ammunition as dangerous "explosives."
Need rifle shells for your next hunting trip? You'll first have to apply for a permit to purchase those "explosives," a second permit to transport them in a special, wooden storage container inside your pickup truck, and a third to "detonate" any in the direction of a 12-point buck.
As written, the proposed rule would force the closure of nearly all ammunition manufacturers and force the cost of small arms ammunition to skyrocket beyond what the market could bear-essentially collapsing our industry. This is not an exaggeration. The cost to comply with the proposed rule for the ammunition industry, including manufacturer, wholesale distributors and retailers, will be massive and easily exceed $100 million. For example, ammunition and smokeless propellant manufacturers would have to shut down and evacuate a factory when a thunderstorm approached and customers would not be allowed within 50 feet of any ammunition (displayed or otherwise stored) without first being searched for matches or lighters.
The comment period for this rule ends next Thursday.

Seems the Demotyrannic Party despots have been going about their attempts to shut down free speech on talk radio the wrong way. They should just get their fellow rights-abusing "progressives" at OSHA to define radio waves as harmful high frequency radiation so they can "regulate" it.
Too bad there isn't a Globally Harmonized System for the Classification and Labeling of Bloviations. We could regulate Edwarped Mao al-Qennedy, al-Bore, and HerNibsly Rotund al-Qlinton out of the spacetime continuum.
BLACKSBURG, Va., April 16 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Paul Helmke, President of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, issued the following statement:
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the Virginia Tech University community, and to the families of the victims of what appears to be one of the worst mass shootings in American history.
"Details are still forthcoming about what motivated the shooter in this case to act, and how he was able to arm himself. It is well known, however, how easy it is for an individual to get powerful weapons in our country.
"Eight years ago this week, the young people in Littleton, Colorado suffered a horrible attack at Columbine High School, and almost exactly six months ago, five young people were killed at an Amish schoolhouse in Pennsylvania. Since these killings, we've done nothing as a country to end gun violence in our schools and communities. If anything, we've made it easier to access powerful weapons.
"We have now seen another horrible tragedy that will never be forgotten. It is long overdue for us to take some common-sense actions to prevent tragedies like this from continuing to occur."
