<div id="post_message_19275626" style="font-family: verdana, geneva, lucida, "lucida grande", arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;">
I'm a member on a national pro-gun forum and one of the issues ardently discussed there is passing of a Federal Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) reciprocity law as promised by Trump during his Presidential campaign .<br /><br />To my amazement, a sizable percentage of gun forum contributors (those living in free States with less gun regulations) oppose such a law on the premise that once the Federal Govt regulates CCW issuance by law, when the next Democrat majority Congress takes charge it can use the same law to restrict CCW issuance nationally.<br /><br />Here is my response to them (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on any of the points):<br /><br /><br /><b><br />Here is why I believe it is not only defeatist but also stupid to reject a nationwide CCW reciprocity:</b><br /><br />1. To my knowledge (I may be wrong so please correct me if I am) out of 50 States there are only 4 that have "may issue" CCW laws: California, New York, New Jersey and Hawaii.<br />The rest of 46 states either have "shall issue" laws or "constitutional carry"<br />In the past decade the trend towards CCW carry policies in 46 states was and continues toward liberalization, not restriction. That liberalization happened during both GW Bush and Obama administrations and it wasn't opposed by Democrats at Federal level even during the 2 years time they had a super-majority. The Dems could have easily passed an anti CCW law (just as the chicken littles here are afraid of), but they didn't. They remember what happened when Clinton passed a Federal AWB law and they are afraid of a backlash 3 times as big if they mess with the right to carry.<br /><br />2. Being afraid "the Dems will use CCW reciprocity to push for federal restrictions when they regain majority" is not only a defeatist but also quite stupid attitude.<br />Why?<br />Because they could do it just as well without a reciprocity law. They could do it the same as they already did with Obamacare a couple of years back. Meaning they could pass a federal law regulating and transforming the permit issuing policy from shall issue to may issue. This will have precedence over the 50 States laws. But they know (just like they are about to learn very soon with the Obamacare fiasco) that a law rammed down our throats without the slightest bi-partisan support will be repealed the moment Republicans gain the mahority and the White House again. And the political damage they do to themselves for practically nothing but a law that is guaranteed to be repealed in a couple of years, isn't just worth the risk.<br /><br />3. We are practically just a month and a half away from a new SCOTUS nomination that will give our side a 5-4 pro-gun Court again. It also is extremely likely the oldest and most anti-gun Judge Ginsburg will either retire or croak within the next 4 years (she's 83 and in poor health). That will give us a solid 6-3 majority. It's very unlikely any anti CCW law passed by a Dem majority after Trump leaves the White House will stand SCOTUS scrutiny in a Court solidly dominated by conservatives.<br /><br />4. We need to be bold and relentlessly push our agenda just as the our enemies are. You will never, ever hear the anti-2nd Amendment activist pigs saying "we mustn't push for new laws because in the future the NRA and the gun zealots may turn around our legislative initiatives to their gain" This just never happen. They have an objective: gun control (and eventually total gun confiscation) and they just keep on going at it day after day, year after year during Democrat administrations or Republican administrations.<br /><br />5. California has the second highest number of gun owners in the US (after Texas). Think about the immense benefits for the national gun rights movement when millions of law abiding Californians will be able to carry concealed, and the streets will NOT run red with rivers of blood (just as it happened everywhere else in the US). What arguments will the Pelosis and Boxers and Schumers and the rest of of the anti-gun scumbags in DC will have when trying to pass a Federal law restricting CCW issuance? Stop gun violence perpetrated by legal CCW-ers? Doesn't happen, statistics prove citizens who carry concealed are less prone to break the law than even LEOs! Turn California shall issue and the facts will speak louder than any anti-gunners arguments.<br /><br />6. The lucky stars of gun rights are in perfect alignment for us. We have majority in both Houses, a pro-gun President AND very soon a pro-gun SCOTUS Judges majority. We mustn't leave this opportunity pass us by, just because in the future the Democrats may or may not take advantage. Again, we need to be bold, to be brazen and to relentlessly push our agenda just like our enemies do. Actually, to quote the great Andrew Breibart: if liberals push you, you need to push back twice as hard.</div>

Qur’an 8:12 “I shall terrorize the infidels. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them
because they oppose Allah and His Apostle.”<br />
Qur’an 8:57 “If you gain mastery over them in battle, inflict such a defeat as would terrorize
them, so that they would learn a lesson and be warned.”<br />
Ishaq:326 “If you come upon them, deal so forcibly as to terrify those who would follow, that
they may be warned. Make a severe example of them by terrorizing Allah’s enemies.”<br />
Qur’an 8:67 “It is not fitting for any prophet to have prisoners until he has made a great
slaughter in the land.”<br />
<br />
Ishaq:588 “When the Apostle descends on your land none of your people will be left when he
leaves.” Tabari IX:42 “We have been dealt a situation from which there is no escape. You have seen
what Muhammad has done. Arabs have submitted to him and we do not have the strength
to fight. You know that no herd is safe from him. And no one even dares go outside for fear
of being terrorized.”<br />
Ishaq:326 “Allah said, ‘No Prophet before Muhammad took booty from his enemy nor prisoners
for ransom.’ Muhammad said, ‘I was made victorious with terror. The earth was
made a place for me to clean.’”<br />
<br />
Ishaq:327 “Allah said, ‘A prophet must slaughter before collecting captives. A slaughtered
enemy is driven from the land. Muhammad, you craved the desires of this world, its goods
and the ransom captives would bring. But Allah desires killing them to manifest the religion.’”
Qur’an 7:3 “Little do you remember My warning. How many towns have We destroyed as a
raid by night? Our punishment took them suddenly while they slept for their afternoon rest.
Our terror came to them; Our punishment overtook them.”<br />
<br />
Ishaq:510 “When the Apostle looked down on Khaybar he told his Companions, ‘O Allah, Lord
of the Devils and what into error they throw, and Lord of the winds and what they winnow,
we ask Thee for the booty of this town and its people. Forward in the name of Allah.’ He
used to say this of every town he raided.”<br />
<br />
Bukhari:V5B59N512 “The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer [Prayer of Fear] near Khaybar when it
was still dark. He said, ‘Allahu-Akbar!’ [Allah is Greatest] Khaybar is destroyed, for whenever
we approach a hostile nation to fight, then evil will be the morning for those who have
been warned.’ Then the inhabitants came out running on their roads. The Prophet had their
men killed; their children and woman were taken as captives.”<br />
<br />
Bukhari:V9B87N127 “The Prophet said, ‘I have been given the keys of eloquent speech and given
victory with terror.’”
Ishaq:517 “Khaybar was stormed by the Apostle’s squadron, fully armed, powerful and strong.
It brought certain humiliation with Muslim men in its midst. We attacked and they met their
doom. Muhammad conquered the Jews in fighting that day as they opened their eyes to
our dust.”
Tabari VIII:116/Ishaq:511 “So Muhammad began seizing their herds and their property bit by
bit. He conquered home by home.”<br />
<br />
<br />
Bukhari:V5B59N512 “The Prophet had their men killed, their children and woman taken captive.”
Tabari VIII:129 “After the Messenger had finished with the Khaybar Jews, Allah cast terror into
the hearts of the Jews in Fadak.”
Tabari VIII:138 “Muhammad carried arms, helmets, and spears. He led a hundred horses,
appointing Bahir to be in charge of the weapons and Maslamah to be in charge of the
horses. When the Quraysh received word of this, it frightened them.”
Qur’an 33:26 “Allah made the Jews leave their homes by terrorizing them so that you killed
some and made many captive. And He made you inherit their lands, their homes, and their
wealth. He gave you a country you had not traversed before.”
Qur’an 59:2 “It was Allah who drove the [Jewish] People of the Book from their homes and into
exile. They refused to believe and imagined that their strongholds would protect them
against Allah. But Allah came at them from where they did not suspect, and filled their
hearts with terror. Their homes were destroyed. So learn a lesson, O men who have eyes.
This is My warning…they shall taste the torment of Fire.”
Qur’an 33:60 “If the Hypocrites stir up sedition, if the agitators in the City do not desist, We
shall urge you to go against them and set you over them. Then they will not be able to stay
as your neighbors. They shall have a curse on them. Whenever they are found, they shall
be seized and slain without mercy—a fierce slaughter—murdered, a horrible murdering.”
Bukhari:V4B52N256 “The Prophet passed by and was asked whether it was permissible to
attack infidels at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger.
The Prophet replied, ‘Their women and children are from them.’”
Ishaq:576 “Allah and His servant overwhelmed every coward. Allah honored us and made our
religion victorious. We were glorified and destroyed them all. Allah humiliated them in the
worship of Satan. By what our Apostle recites from the Book and by our swift horses, I
liked the punishment the infidels received. Killing them was sweeter than drink. We galloped
among them panting for the spoil. With our loud-voiced army, the Apostle’s
squadron advanced into the fray.”
Ishaq:580 “Our strong warriors obey his orders to the letter. By us Allah’s religion is undeniably
strong. You would think when our horses gallop with bits in their mouths that the
MUHAMMAD’S OWN WORDS xi
sounds of demons are among them. The day we trod down the unbelievers there was no
deviation or turning from the Apostle’s order. During the battle the people heard our exhortations
to fight and the smashing of skulls by swords that sent heads flying. We severed
necks with a warrior’s blow. Often we have left the slain cut to pieces and a widow crying
alas over her mutilated husband. ’Tis Allah, not man we seek to please.”
Tabari IX:69 “He who believes in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions
from us. As for those who disbelieve, we will fight them forever in the Cause of Allah.
Killing them is a small matter to us.”
Bukhari:V5B59N516 “When Allah’s Apostle fought or raided people we raised ourvoices saying,
‘Allahu-Akbar! Allahu-Akbar! None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’”
Ishaq:281 “The Raid on Waddan was the first Maghazi [invasion]. The Expedition of Harith
was second. They encountered a large number of Quraysh in the Hijaz. Abu Bakr composed
a poem about the raid: ‘When we called them to the truth they turned their backs
and howled like bitches. Allah’s punishment on them will not tarry. I swear by the Lord of
Camels [Allah?] that I am no perjurer. A valiant band will descend upon the Quraysh which
will leave women husbandless. It will leave men dead, with vultures wheeling round. It will
not spare the infidels.’”
Tabari VII:11 “In this year the Messenger entrusted to Sa’d a white war banner for the expedition
to Kharrar. Sa’d said, ‘I set out on foot at the head of twenty men. We used to lie hidden
by day and march at night.”
Bukhari:V5B59N569 “I fought in seven Ghazwat battles along with the Prophet and fought in
nine Maghazi raids in armies dispatched by the Prophet.”
Bukhari:V5B59N401 “Allah’s Wrath became severe on anyone the Prophet killed in Allah’s Cause.”
Bukhari:V5B59N456 “Muhammad led the Fear Prayer [Allahu Akbar!] with one batch of his
army while the other (batch) faced the enemy.”
Bukhari:V5B59N440 “Allah’s Apostle used to say, ‘None has the right to be worshipped except
Allah Alone because He honored His Warriors and made His Messenger victorious. He
defeated the clans; so there is nothing left.’”
Ishaq:287 “The Muslim raiders consulted one another concerning them. One of the Muslims
said, ‘By Allah, if we leave these people alone, they will get safely out of our reach.’” Tabari
VII:19 “They hesitated and were afraid to advance, but then they plucked up courage and
agreed to kill as many as they could and to seize what they had with them. Waqid shot an
arrow at Amr and killed him. Uthman and al-Hakam surrendered. Then Waqid and his companions
took the caravan and the captives back to Allah’s Apostle in Medina. This was the
first booty taken by the Companions of Muhammad.”
Tabari VII:20/Ishaq:288 “The Quraysh said, ‘Muhammad and his Companions have violated the
sacred month, shed blood, seized property, and taken men captive.’ The polytheists spread
lying slander concerning him, saying, ‘Muhammad claims that he is following obedience
to Allah, yet he is the first to violate the holy month and to kill our people.’”
Ishaq:288 “When the Qur’an passage concerning this matter was revealed, and Allah relieved
Muslims from their anxiety, Muhammad took possession of the caravan and prisoners. The
xii TERRORISM
Quraysh sent him a ransom and the Prophet released the prisoners on payment. Tabari
VII:29/Ishaq:289 “The Apostle heard that Abu Sufyan [a Meccan merchant] was coming from
Syria with a large caravan containing their money and their merchandise. He was accompanied
by only thirty men.” Ishaq:289 “Muhammad summoned the Muslims and said, ‘This
is the Quraysh caravan containing their property. Go out and attack it. Perhaps Allah will
give it to us as prey.”
Tabari VII:29 “Abu Sufyan and the horsemen of the Quraysh were returning from Syria following
the coastal road. When Allah’s Apostle heard about them he called his companions
together and told them of the wealth they had with them and the fewness of their numbers.
The Muslims set out with no other object than Sufyan and the men with him. They did not
think that this raid would be anything other than easy booty.”
Bukhari:V5B59N702 “Allah did not admonish anyone who had not participated in the Ghazwa
[raid] of Badr, for in fact, Allah’s Apostle had only gone out in search of the Quraysh caravan
so that he could rob it. But Allah arranged for the Muslims and their enemy to meet by
surprise.’” Tabari VII:29 “They did not suppose that there would be a great battle. Concerning
this Allah revealed a Qur’an: Qur’an 8:7 ‘Behold! Allah promised you that one of the two parties
would be yours. You wished for the unarmed one, but Allah willed to justify His truth
according to His words and to cut off the roots of the unbelievers.’”
Ishaq:290 “Some Meccans got up to circumambulate the Ka’aba…. Sitting around the
mosque, they wondered why they had allowed this evil rascal to attack their men.”
Ishaq:294 “The Apostle was afraid the Ansar would not feel obliged to help him fight without
the enemy being the aggressor and attacking in Medina. Sa’d said, ‘We hear and obey. We
are experienced in war, trustworthy in combat. Allah will let us show you something that
will bring you joy. The Apostle was delighted at Sa’d’s words which greatly encouraged
him. Muhammad shouted, ‘It is as if I see the enemy lying prostrate.’”
Bukhari:V5B59N330/Ishaq:300 “Here is Gabriel holding the rein of a horse and leading the charge.
He is equipped with his weapons and ready for the battle. There is dust upon his front
teeth.” Bukhari:V5B59N327 “Gabriel came to the Prophet and said, ‘How do you view the warriors
of Badr?’ The Prophet said, ‘I see the fighters as the best Muslims.’ On that, Gabriel
said, ‘And so are the Angels who are participating in the Badr battle.’”
Tabari VII:55 “Allah’s Messenger went out to his men and incited them to fight. He promised,
‘Every man may keep all the booty he takes.’ Then Muhammad said, ‘By Allah, if any man
fights today and is killed fighting aggressively, going forward and not retreating, Allah will
cause him to enter Paradise.’ Umayr said, ‘Fine, fine. This is excellent! Nothing stands
between me and my entering Paradise except to be killed by these people!’ He threw down
the dates, seized his sword, and fought until he was slain.”
Tabari VII:56 “‘Messenger of Allah, what makes the Lord laugh with joy at his servant?’ He
replied, ‘When he plunges his hand into the midst of an enemy without armor.’ So Auf took
off the coat of mail he was wearing and threw it away. Then he took his sword and fought.”
Ishaq:301 “Muhammad picked up a handful of pebbles and faced the Quraysh. He shouted,
‘May their faces be deformed!’ He threw the pebbles at them and ordered his companions
MUHAMMAD’S OWN WORDS xiii
to attack. The foe was routed. Allah killed Quraysh chiefs and caused many of their nobles
to be taken captive. While the Muslims were taking prisoners, the Messenger was in his hut.”
Bukhari:V5B59N290 “The Prophet said, ‘The believers who failed to join the Ghazwa of Badr
and those who took part in it are not equal in reward.”
Bukhari:V5B59N333 “Az-Zubair said, ‘I attacked him with my spear and pierced his eye. I put
my foot over his body to pull the weapon out, but even then I had to use great force. Later
on Allah’s Apostle asked me for that spear and I gave it to him.’”
Ishaq:301 “As the Muslims were laying their hands on as many prisoners as they could catch,
the Prophet, saw disapproval in the face of Sa’d. He said, ‘Why are you upset by the taking
of captives?’ Sa’d replied, ‘This was the first defeat inflicted by Allah on the infidels.
Slaughtering the prisoners would have been more pleasing to me than sparing them.’”
Tabari VII:59 “At Badr I passed Umayyah as he was standing with his son Ali, holding his
hand. I had with me some coats of mail which I had taken as plunder. Umayyah said, ‘Abd
al-Ilah, would you like to take me as a prisoner? I will be more valuable to you as a captive
to be ransomed than the coats of mail that you are carrying.’ I said, ‘Yes. Come here then.’
I flung away the armor and bound Umayyah and his son Ali, taking them with me. Muslims
encircled us. Then they restrained us physically. One of the Muslims drew his sword and
struck Ali in the leg, severing it so that he fell down. Umayyah gave a scream the like of
which I have never heard. I said, ‘Save yourself, for there is no escape for your son. By

Merits American executive, catapulted from obscurity to the Oval Office in 24 short months, were exacerbated among others, the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009.

Today, in the fall of 2015, Barak Obama is for many Americans a glorious sunset, another professional politician in the post of head of state, one mediocre and irrelevant to America and the world.</span><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">Big promises and hopes of 2008 have turned into controversy and repeated failures. The so-called elections "midterm" in 2014, the vast majority of Democratic candidates running for Congress and Senate president stayed away, considering it toxic for the success of their campaigns. Impressive promises made at the beginning of the first mandate remained less settled or not.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">Status American nation and the global crises and endless wars are the subject of discussion and some controversy unprecedented. Instead, Barak Obama today is less concerned today debilitating seizures of the United States and the world and totally consumed by his spiritual legacy. Obama reached its obsession with the idea of how history will judge him after his departure from the White House.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">In the Oval Office, former senator of Illinois has a reputation as a difficult man, arrogant and stubborn, contrary to all appearances. Defections around him began to grow. A veteran Congress leader, another Democrat confessed that the great success not much Obama will remain the first black president of America and so. Even the Republican author believed that even the racial relations, as Obama will not fail. Unfortunately, he was wrong. In reality, the president Jimmy Carter here, no American leader has presided over a period marked by so many violent uprisings and nationally, most meaningless and reason. Since the devastating riots in Baltimore Maryland at the Ferguson - to Missouri and Illinois Sprinfield anarchic violence, Sanford Oakland California or Florida, the anger of those who are determined to destroy or steal anything that is handy became legendary.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">Where found great leader and Barak Obama in national helmsman these barbaric and shameful episodes for America? What was the message President and intervention by those affected or devastated by these tragedies? When a young black man was shot in a scuffle in Sanford Florida in 2012, President Obama identified himself with it promptly, "I could be Trayvon Martin, I could be the victim". Such statement was interpreted as a carte blanche by extremists color. It was more a call to "arms", a new rebellion.</span><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">Months later, the man who shot Trayvon Martin him, a so-called guardian of the neighborhood, George Zimmerman, was found guilty by a jury which included many African Americans. Meanwhile, 21 people lost their lives because of this incident and the damage amounted to more than 100 million dollars. Unlike most young whites, Asians or Latin Americans in the United States there is a segment of people of color radicalized. They live today in real ghettos and act as if they have nothing to lose. Dispose without property, they can not be expelled from schools or high schools, because a good part of them already abandoned years ago or more are suspended. They can not be dismissed, because many do not work anywhere. The university no longer the question. Their parents are addicted not only social, but even drugs. Most of the women conceived numerous children with different men. These men are often imprisoned themselves, depriving "motivated" to raise children and, especially, to pay alimony. Classic family structure that we know all there is to this social group. This status quo</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">No real excuse their behavior, but it certainly helps us to understand the next generation perpetuating situation. These young people are convinced that they have a future, that we owe society and state life and their misery is caused by others, specifically by white people. This part of African-American group would have become the top priority of the Obama administration and less normalization of diplomatic relations with the regime in Havana, national health insurance, or state nuclear reactors in Iran.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">For Romanians familiar with the country's modern history and living in the US social crisis management in recent years by the White House seem to have a taste of miners in Bucharest. Not because rebels hunted opposition parties and their leaders, but because the degree of barbarity and violence against other Americans expressed Americans resembled those seen in Romania in 1990 and 1991. Romanian President then called "action" on ortacii (brothers) from Jiu Valley, while President Obama through his silence or tendentious comments became complicit in these misdeeds.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">By refusing to directly condemn this kind of violence, Barak Obama offered their justification. Mr. Obama has a mission to improve relations implicit racial and social services in the United States. In reality, they have deteriorated to the point where such incidents have become too common and devastating at the same time. The emancipation of the poor, mostly black people and "redistributing" wealth from the wealthy to the needy affected only the lower middle class. Those with middle and low income are taxed more severely nonchalantly now and are pushed into poverty. The rich and super rich remain the same taxes as before, what has not changed their lifestyle and even mood. ObamaCare, mighty insurance plan "for all Americans," sounded from ostentation to adult bankrupted not only Doctors and clinics, but will destroy an entire medical industry soon. Income redistribution and strategy to encourage mediocrity by lowering academic standards in state schools is another coup de grace given current American society.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 22.8148px;">Barak Obama has perpetuated racism in many ways reversed. With or without intention, we experience it in New York almost daily. Just as friends and colleagues from Washington DC, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston and Los Angeles. Apathy and hostility, aggression and indifference, all targeted more often than you'd expect primarily by white people (or Asian) of a segment of the black population. Besieged cyberspace by Chinese who steal our daily most precious data and intelligence, tease, feint and threatened shamelessly Russia's Putin terrorized systematically fanaticism of ISIS and Al-Qaida, iacătă state pride America nearly seven years of government Barak Obama. As Romanian-Americans still contemplate repatriation, but if Ronald Reagan were alive today does not recognize the current state of the nation and federation called the United States."</span></blockquote>

It fires 300 X 30 cal. clips per second, that is 154.5 times faster than a Apache helicopter minigun. Bullets launched by this ghost gun fly at the incredible speed of warp 9.975 <br />
It also incorporates 198,237 patents - the most revolutionary of them is
the Klingon cloaking device that makes it a ghost at a push of a bullet
button. The high rate of fire and the ghost feature makes this gun highly illegal in the Liberal Borg Quadrant of Kalifornia.<br />

It's been 3 years since <a href="http://transsylvaniaphoenix.blogspot.com/2010/11/finally-movie-dedicated-to-anti.html" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">I wrote about this movie</a> and promised you that as soon as I will find it subtitled in English I will post it for your viewing pleasure.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Well, that moment is here. My blog readers now have the opportunity to watch a movie that tells the true story of the longest and hardest fought anti-communist armed resistance in history. </div>
<br />
To recap:<br />
<br />
This is a movie based on the autobiographic book "Pine Trees Break But Never Bend Down" written by a true Romanian legend: anti-communist partisani fighter Ion Gavrilă Ogoranu (1923-2006)<br />
<br />
Born in a Romanian family in the Fagaras County, he studied at Radu Negru high school in Fagaras then enrolled in two colleges: the Agronomy College in Cluj and the Academy of Economic sudies in Brasov.
He joined the Romanian Armed Forces in the famed 12th Brigade Mountain Hunters (participating in the on the western front campaign against Nazi Germany). He also enrolled at the Military Academy in Campulung.<br />
<br />
Ion Gavrila Ogoranu started his career as an anti-communist fighter while still in college. For a decade he was the leader of the "Fagaras" group of partisan (haiduci) fighters.
For his role in the anti communist armed resistance he was sentenced to death (twice) in absentia. However, for 27 years the Securitate (KGB's Romanian counterpart) failed to catch up with him - that alone is a record in itself.<br />
Captured in 1976, he was saved from being put to death by the personal intervention of the American President Richard Nixon.<br />
<br />
Enjoy the movie!<br />

They touring in Canada and the United States and their performances are a smashing success with the American public - fully booked venues in every city they performed. Last night the band performed at Grand Performances in downtown Los Angeles - the open air performance venue was full to the hilt. Hundreds of people who didn't manage to find an empty seat watched the concert standing or dancing in the dance ring to Romanian, Gipsy and Balkan tunes.<br />
<br />
Congratulations to Fanfare Ciocarlia and hope to see you back in America in 2014!<br />

There's an app for that!<span style="font-size: small;">Introducing <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.ucsd.visarts.walkingtools.gungeomarker">Gun Geo Marker</a> the creation of gun hating left wing nut and U.C. Sand Diego professor <a href="http://visarts.ucsd.edu/faculty/brett-stalbaum">Brett Stalbaum</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/8518/itw1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">The app description:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-size: small;">Geolocate <b>Dangerous Guns and
Owners</b> with the Gun Geo Marker. Geolocation means marking dangerous sites on the
App's map so that you and others can be aware of the risks in your neighborhood.
</span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div id="doc-description-container" style="max-height: 394px;">
<div class="doc-description toggle-overflow-contents" data-collapsed-height="200">
<div id="doc-original-text" itemprop="description">
<span style="font-size: small;">The Gun Geo Marker operates very simply, letting parents and community
members mark, or geolocate, sites associated with potentially unsafe guns and
gun owners. These locations are typically the homes or businesses of suspected
unsafe gun owners, but might also be public lands or other locations where guns
are not handled safely, or situations where proper rights to own or use any
particular type of firearm may not exist. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div id="doc-description-container" style="max-height: 394px;">
<div class="doc-description toggle-overflow-contents" data-collapsed-height="200">
<div id="doc-original-text" itemprop="description">
<span style="font-size: small;">Electronically marking these locations
can help others in the area learn about their geography of risk from gun
accidents or violence. No matter what your safety concern with firearms might
be, you should feel free to use this tool to provide the most accurate
information you can such that others can make their own safety decisions.
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">As a crowd sourced information tool, the information about dangerous gun
sites comes from users.</span></div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<span style="font-size: small;">In other words, if you are a good liberal and suspect your neighbors or in-laws are gun-toting Tea Party type enemies of the State, you can use this application to oust and shame them in public. Not mentioning the fact that they will have a target painted on their back for both, the police and the criminals who are looking to break into homes and steal their guns. Very reminiscent of Stalin's <a href="http://marxists.catbull.com/reference/archive/stalin/works/1930/01/21.htm">strategy of ousting and eliminating kulaks</a> with the help or the Communist Party faithful during the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor">Holodmor</a> - the 1932-1933 Ukrainian genocide. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">Another earlier creation authored by comrade professor Stalbaum's is <a href="http://www.timesrecordnews.com/photos/2009/dec/29/36099/">an app that assists immigrants to illegally cross the border into the US</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">So there you go liberal smartphone users: prof. Stalbaum is offering a complete solution to help with your progressive agenda. Two apps complementing each other, the first one is enabling you to helps criminals smuggle drugs and illegal immigrants into the US, the second one will help the same criminals procure guns by pinpointing homes of gun owners. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">Make sure you read the user comments on the app page - they're a riot! Here is just a couple of them:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="doc-review-author g-hovercard" data-userid="114577569717388761286" id="___hovercard_1" style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://plus.google.com/114577569717388761286" target="_blank"><b>sl0re10</b></a></span><span class="doc-review-date" style="font-size: small;"> - July 8, 2013</span><span style="font-size: small;"> -</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">I have to say I'm pretty disappointed with this app. I've staked out
three homes listed and once inside found no guns. Its a lot more work
going into a gun owners house as you probably know. You have to make
sure they're not there or you might get shot. But anyway; nothing. Just a
bunch of occupy and socialist worker party fliers. I think someone is
punking this app with bad info. Anyway; the cartel was really counting
on getting a few rifles now that their usual supplier, the Choomer,
disappeared on them. I'll probably have to lay low for awhile myself...
No scores and hiding out means no cash for months... thanks for nothing

<h4 class="review-title">
<span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">My name is Jorge Luis Juan Gonzaga and I am an enforcer for Los Burros
Muertes, a Mexican drug cartel based in Tijuana BC. Since the
unfortunate events of last year when our largest firearms supplier Mr.
Attorney General Eric Holder was investigated by the US Congress
regarding the joint business venture we had with his representatives
from BATF, our supply of US made AK47 and AR15 rifles kind of dried up.
You may have heard about this in the media under the name "Fast &
Furious". It was a hit that seriously affected our capacity to procure
illegal guns from America and the fact that Pres. Obama was himself
under suspicion to have been the one who masterminded the entire
operation didn't helped either - in particular after he used the power
of his office to stop the Congress from subpoenaing documents related to
the communications between his advisers and the BATF officials involved
in Fast & Furious. As you can imagine we were desperately looking
for an alternative source of firearms to replace the ones supplied until
last year by Mr. Attorney General Holder. This is when I found this
wonderful app. Now I can locate gringo gun owners and steal their guns.
Muchas gracias!</span></h4>

<div id="post_message_19857471">
Must read, it will strike a chord with all of you older guys and veterans in particular. But not only.<br />

<tr>
<td class="alt2" style="border: 1px inset;"><span style="font-family: times new roman; font-size: large;">Everybody knows a Walt Kowalski. He is the grizzled Korean War veteran Clint Eastwood played in the movie <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1205489/" target="_blank"><i>Gran Torino</i></a>.
A man who spends his days sitting on the porch, keeping his house and
yard immaculate, satisfied to drink his cheap beer while watching his
neighborhood and country go to hell around him. <br />
</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01799/web-torino_1799773i.jpg" rel="gallery.posts"><img alt="Click the image to open in full size." border="0" class="tcattdimgresizer" height="328" id="ncode_imageresizer_container_1" src="http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01799/web-torino_1799773i.jpg" title="Click the image to open in full size." width="525" /></a><span style="font-family: times new roman;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman;"> He is an anachronism, a dinosaur -- part
of the old America where you worked hard, took pride in your work and
where you lived, and fought for your country and what it stood for when
called upon. Armed with his M1 Garand rifle and 1911 .45 pistol he
brought back from the war, he put new meaning in "Get off my lawn."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman;">(Warning: spoilers follow.)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman;">As anyone who has seen the movie knows,
Kowalski is recently widowed and terminally ill. He does not have much
to live for until he befriends his young Hmong neighbors. After
teaching them what honor and self-reliance are, he eventually gives his
life for them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman;">Fewer have heard of Ben Mitchell, who features in the book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Enemies-Foreign-Domestic-Matthew-Bracken/dp/0972831010" target="_blank"><i> Enemies Foreign and Domestic</i></a>.
Mitchell is a former Vietnam-era Green Beret operative who paralyzes
Washington, D.C. by crippling the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. (Again,
spoilers follow.) Though not terminally ill -- yet -- Mitchell does not
see much of a future ahead of him and is angered about his friend
being set up by the federal government during an unconstitutional
gun-grab passed in the heat of the moment by legislators after a
tragedy. Before losing his life, however, he manages to take out most
of the federal law enforcement team sent against him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: times new roman;">Both of these men are fictional
characters, but is it just fantasy? Let us look back at Samuel
Whittemore. Samuel was an old man -- seventy-eight years old, to be
exact -- on April 19, 1775. After many years of service bearing arms
for the British Crown, surely he was too old to fight, and his wife
even told him so. On that fateful morning, though, he gathered up his
musket, two pistols, and a cavalry saber that he acquired from a French
officer who "died suddenly" and took his place to meet the British
Regulars in Menotomy. When it was over, the British thought they were
fired upon by a whole company and sent the same to subdue him. After
dispatching some British Regulars by emptying his musket and pistols
and drawing his sword, he had half his face shot off and was bayoneted
thirteen times and left for dead. Samuel did indeed die -- ten years
later.</span><br />

<br />
December 21, 1989.<br />
I was 26 years old and barely married for two months when what you see
in the pictures above happened. I was in Romania, carrying an AKM-47 as a
Navy reservist. I didn't really cared if I was to live or to die -
living my entire as a slave under communism really made me indifferent
to the perspective of dying during those blood soaked days of Christmas. In fact, I was ready to put a bullet in my
head if the revolution wouldn't have succeed. We all knew they would come after us and shoot us anyway if we failed.<br />
<br />
My father once told me: son, the single biggest mistake me and your
grandad did was to surrender our guns in 1949 when the communists made
gun ownership illegal. You paid for our mistake and I am sorry for that.
<br />
<br />
Now I have a 22 year old son and I am making ANYONE who wants to come to my home take my guns away A PLEDGE: <br />
<br />
YOU WILL NOT TAKE MY GUNS. BE READY TO DIE IF YOU TRY AS I AM ALREADY PREPARED TO GIVE MY LIFE TO STOP YOU.<br />
I WILL NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE MY FATHER
AND GRANDFATHER DID.<br />
I WILL NOT LET MY SON TO LIVE IN SLAVERY LIKE I DID. I WILL NOT LET HIM RISK HIS LIFE FIGHTING ANOTHER REVOLUTION TO OVERTHROW ANOTHER DICTATOR BECAUSE I WAS A COWARD AND GAVE UP INTO YOUR DEMANDS.<br />
<br />
I owe that to my son. And I owe it to all the people who died for liberty in December 1989.<br />
<br />

A crazed bloodthirsty hyena killed 26 lambs. Grief stricken sheep blame the sheepdogs. "Their tooth are dangerous" the sheep bleat.<br />
Meanwhile, the pack of wolves who run the forest are salivating. Pretty soon the sheep will succeed in their pursuit of leaving the sheepdogs toothless.<br />
And then, the entire flock will be theirs for the slaughter. <br />

I think the evolution of the new lefty urban hunter goes something like this:<br />
<br />
2006: Reads Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma, about the ickyness
of the industrial food complex. Starts shopping at a farmer’s market.<br />
2008: Puts in own vegetable garden. Tries to go vegetarian but falls off the wagon.<br />
2009: Decides to only eat “happy meat” that has been treated humanely.<br />
2010: Gets a chicken coop and a flock of chickens.<br />
2011: Dabbles in backyard butchery of chickens. Reads that Facebook
founder Mark Zuckerberg decided to only eat meat he killed himself for a
year.<br />
2012: Gets a hunting permit, thinking “how hard can it be? I already totally dominate Big Buck Hunter at the bar.”<br />
<br />
Hunting is undeniably in vogue among the bearded, bicycle-riding,
locavore set. The new trend might even be partly behind a recent 9
percent increase from 2006 to 2011 in the number of hunters in the
United States after years of decline. Many of these new hunters are
taking up the activity for ethical and environmental reasons.<br />
<br />
“It feels more responsible and ecologically sound to eat an animal that
was raised wild and natural in my local habitat than to eat a cow that
was fattened up on grain or even hay, which is inevitably harvested with
fuel-hungry machines,” writes Christie Aschwanden, a self-described
“tree-hugging former vegetarian.”<br />
<br />
A recent spate of books with titles like The Mindful Carnivore and Call
of the Mild chronicles the exploits of these first-time hunters. <br />

Will be this the generation of Frenchmen capable of rising to the task and defending their homeland - like Charles Martel and Joanne D'Arc did before them?Transsylvania Phoenixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00406365425899571210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4369624442804261813.post-23236325560445447022012-11-07T15:57:00.002-08:002012-11-08T09:24:55.319-08:00Sad Day For America<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I emigrated from my country in Eastern Europe and crossed the Atlantic Ocean to run away from communism.<br />
Last night I came to realize I didn't ran far enough. Communism is about to take over America with the full acceptance of half of the American people.<br />
<br />
Maybe the American people need to experience communism themselves in order to realize their mistake. Maybe they need to see how it is when you have food rations, gasoline rations, toilet paper and detergent rations.<br />
<br />
Maybe they need to see how living in a country where soap, shampoo, coffee, salami, cigarettes and whiskey are considered luxury items for the use of the upper class only, and where those items (obtained exclusively on the black market) can buy you a place ahead the line when you need a doctor visit for your father, heart medication for your mother or baby formula for your child. <br />
<br />
Maybe they need to experience the waiting in line for 16 hours in a front of a grocery store to buy a malnourished chicken, or a bottle of cooking oil, a carton of eggs, or a pound of sugar, or a bottle of cooking propane - and when you're almost in the front of the line to be told they're sold out.<br />
<br />
Maybe they need to sleep in their beds fully dressed up and wearing wool hats and gloves because they have no fuel to heat their homes. <br />
<br />
Maybe they need to have their kids doing their homework at candle light because the electricity is shut down 22 hours a day out of 24.<br />
<br />
Maybe they need to learn how to have their families share the the rationed hot water and have the entire family take their shower during the single hour of the week when the hot water runs. And if possible do their laundry in the same time.<br />
<br />
Maybe they need to have their friends writing informative notes on them and have their telephones and homes under surveillance; and have their fathers, brothers or sisters arrested deported or "disappeared" because of a joke they made about the leadership of the ruling Party. <br />
<br />
Maybe America needs to experience the communist paradise I experienced in order to wake the fuck up. I know I did.<br />
<br />
That's all I have to say today.<br />
<br />
Edited to add:<br />
<br />
Some say it not possible for Obama to transform America in a communist country. That he doesn't have the political power to do it and that there are checks and balances in the Constitution that will prevent him to assume dictatorial powers.<br />
<br />
Here is what my argument is against such naysayers:<br />
What Obama is implementing now in America is socialism.
Socialism is just a stepping stone on the path to communism. If you don't believe me, maybe you believe Karl Marx -<a href="http://icwpredflag.org/DepthE/HistRepsE.pdf"> he said that</a>.<br />
<br />
Obama operates under the teachings of <a href="http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2011/the-anti-church-of-antonio-gramsci.html">Antonio Gramsci</a> - he was the communist philosopher who first came with the theory that in advanced capitalist societies communism can never be implemented by force like it was in underdeveloped countries like Russia. According to him, communism in America and Western Europe needs to be introduced gradually by infiltrating the education system, taking religion out of people's lives, taking over the media, the unions and the political Parties and by greatly <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpAOwJvTOio">increasing</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU_O28z4liU">dependence</a> on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzspsovNvII">social</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5ocjZ9GatA">programs</a> (see links).<br />
By doing so, citizens themselves will be the ones asking for communism and no spilled would be necessary to abandon capitalism. It's the simple principle of boiling the frog by gradually increasing the water temperature.<br />
<br />
So no, America will not become a full blown communist state in Obama's next four years. It will gradually become a socialist state, the stepping stone to communism Karl Marx was talking about. A stepping stone from which the next move to full communism will be just a small, natural step forward in the next decade.
