Knife control: Japanese man kills 19, injures 26

When-Rocks-Are-OutlawedHad that occurred here in America, Barack Hussein Obaka and Loretta Lynch and Jerry Brown and Gavin Newsom and all the rest of the Leftists would still be bleating about gun control.

From CNN.com:

Japan knife attack: At least 19 dead

by Euan McKirdy and Emanuella Grinberg

(CNN)  At least 19 people were killed and 26 injured in a stabbing spree at a facility for disabled people west of Tokyo, making it one of Japan’s deadliest mass killings since World War II. Nine men and 10 women, ranging in age from 18 to 70, were killed in the attack.

Officer Satomi Kurihara of the Sagamihara Fire Department confirmed the death toll at the Tsukui Yamayuri-en facility in Sagamihara, a residential area approximately 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of the capital.
Satoshi Uematsu, a 26-year-old who worked at the facility until February, broke in through a window about 2 a.m. Tuesday (1 p.m. ET Monday), Kanagawa Prefecture officials said at a news conference.

Because, as we all know — and Leftists know this best of all — if we eliminate firearms wholesale, then violence will simply plummet and go away.  All will be well with the world, birds will sing, clouds will part and the sun will shine.

Gun-Control-at-the-Bar

“What’s the frequency, Kenneth?”  Dan Rather knows.

Yes, Leftists are in fact that naive.  Logic and the nature of humanity, as I’ve written before, eludes the deluded.

When firearms are eradicated, violence will cease.  Right?  But wait; what about Australia, where gun deaths are down but knife deaths are climbing.  Why might that be?  Let’s glance at China, where a knife is the weapon of choice and 130 persons were stabbed at random36 persons were stabbed and killed at a Chinese police station in 2013Eight children were killed by a knife-wielder in JapanEight people killed in South Korea41 people were stabbed by a 16-year-old in Berlin.  A 13-year-old girl was stabbed to death in the UK.  The knife is the UK “weapon of choice” for violence, as it is in Israel with Palestinians stabbing and killing Israeli citizensFBI data indicates you are more likely to be beaten, clubbed or stabbed to death than to be murdered using an AR-15 or any other rifle in the United States.

In Europe, guns are involved in 36 percent of murders and knives are involved in 43 percent.  Where is the cry for “knife control”?

Locally, there were a number of knife attacks last year.

Some other interesting statistics.

But let’s stop dancing around the issue of “gun control.”  Let’s get down to brass tacks: Demorats and Leftists want out-and-out gun confiscation.  Make no mistake about that.  Hillary Clinton and all other power elites have their own private police forces.  You don’t.  They have “theirs” and that is all they care about.

When you get down to it, Leftists and Demorats will only be satisfied when there exists the complete removal of firearms from American citizens.  The outright trampling of the Second Amendment.  What’s left?  Tire irons?  Knives?

But here’s one thing you won’t be able to do with a knife or a rock or a lamp or a baseball bat or a torch or a pitchfork: defend yourself against a government.  Oppose oppressive government regimes.  Governments, all governments, our government, will always be armed with heavy, military grade weapons.  Historically, our Second Amendment does not exist to allow Americans to hunt.  That’s a ridiculous claim when made by anyone.  The Second Amendment exists in America in order to resist tyranny in any form and that includes an over-reaching government, foreign or domestic.

Demorats and Leftists are not grounded in reality.  They are only versed in power and money.  The citizenry can be armed or it can be disarmed.  Those who are disarmed are called Proles, Serfs, Groundlings, Commoners.

In the meantime, criminals will still commit crimes, the mentally unstable will still be unstable, and Leftists will still be unable to grasp these fundamental concepts.

3 Baton Rouge officers killed; Obama bleats about gun control

Baton Rouge Officers Killed 7-17-2016Baton Rouge Police Department Officers Montrell Jackson, Brad Garafola, Matthew Gerald, stalked, ambushed and killed by black suspect.

It’s the customary Barack Hussein Obama response whenever guns are used in violence: gun control.  We need more gun control.  It’s the standard Mark I, Model I retort for Obama and Leftists and Demorats.  We need more gun control — though in the bulk of these cases the suspects did not violate the law and would not have otherwise been able to be stopped.  “More gun control” simply penalizes one group of persons: the law abiding, not the law breaking.  This simple fact completely eludes the deluded.

There should therefore be truck control for France, pressure cooker control for Massachusetts and knife control for much of the rest of the world.

Pause here for just a moment.

Let’s envision a gun-free US.  Then let’s envision Australia, where gun deaths are down but knife deaths are climbing.  Why might that be?  Let’s glance at China, where a knife is the weapon of choice and 130 persons were stabbed at random36 persons were stabbed and killed at a Chinese police station in 2013Eight children were killed by a knife-wielder in JapanEight people killed in South Korea41 people were stabbed by a 16-year-old in Berlin.  A 13-year-old girl was stabbed to death in the UK.  The knife is the UK “weapon of choice” for violence, as it is in Israel with Palestinians stabbing and killing Israeli citizensFBI data indicates you are more likely to be beaten, clubbed or stabbed to death than to be murdered using an AR-15 or any other rifle in the United States.

Yet the meme continues, pushed, shoved and agendized by Mr Obama, Leftists and our American Media Maggots.

In Europe, guns are involved in 36 percent of murders and knives are involved in 43 percent.  Where is the cry for “knife control”?
KNIFE CONTROLBut here’s one thing you won’t be able to do with a knife: defend yourself against a government.  Oppose oppressive government regimes.  Governments, all governments, our government, will always be armed with heavy, military grade weapons.  Historically, our Second Amendment does not exist to allow Americans to hunt.  That’s a ridiculous claim when made by anyone.  The Second Amendment exists in America in order to resist tyranny in any form and that includes an over-reaching government, foreign or domestic.

We all know what occurs when you take a knife to a gun fight.  The only solution to an evil person with a gun is another gun.  Period.  Most of these recent mass killers shoot themselves or surrender when confronted with armed resistance.  They are completely aware of so-called “gun free zones.”  They know what will happen when law enforcement arrives.

As the great Divider-In-Chief, here is what one of your black minions, Cleveland Brown player Isaiah Crowell, posted on Instagram.

Cop Throat Slit

This is but a small portion of the offensive material going out on social media against law enforcement.

Cop Throat Slit ComparisonNotice any similarity, Mr Obama?  This is your doing sir.  Your doing.  I am not the only one who believes this.  Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke calls Barack Hussein Obama the Cop Hater-In-Chief.

Sheriff Clarke was interviewed by Don Lemon on CNN last night and had had enough.  You must watch the full interview.

Let us not forget that Black Lives Matter was created behind an outright lie — the lie of “hands up don’t shoot.”  Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson had the full force of the federal government fall down on him as a host of 100 FBI agents descended upon Ferguson in order to prove him a racist, a liar, a bad cop, the outright assassin of Michael Brown.

Officer Darren Wilson was cleared entirely but his life was destroyed.  He can never be a law enforcement officer again because of his perceived stigma.

Let me say that again: Black Lives Matter was predicated but upon a LIE, and consists now of mostly racist individuals whose words are murderous themselves and whose members foment and partake of violence.

Black Lives Matter Hate Group SPLC GraphicAs the great Divider-In-Chief and, as I am wont to say, the Racist-In-Chief, Obama is quick to conclude that law enforcement officers are swine.  It is Barack Obama who stated Trayvon Martin could be his son.  In one way, sir, yes, perhaps he could indeed.  But not in the manner he perhaps envisioned.  I don’t mean that in a good way, you see.  Rhetoric uber alles, Mr Obama, for It was Obama who said “if they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.”

Today Barack Obama said that cops need to “admit their failures.”  Perhaps you should turn that burning and accusing finger towards yourself sir and examine your own rhetoric, your own lack of leadership, your own clear biases and prejudices.

It is Barack Hussein Obama who acts without facts.  As I wrote earlier:

Obama sets the tone and the pace for the administration in DC and, by dint of that, the tone for the rest of those who follow he and his fellow political Leftists.

Trayvon Martin became Barack Hussein Obama’s son.  Obama didn’t have all the facts but proclaimed Martin a victim.  Zimmermann was found not guilty, though Obama had already found him guilty.

Obama stated with Bully Pulpit firmness that the Cambridge Police Department “acted stupidly” in the arrest of professor Henry Gates, though Obama didn’t have all the facts.  Gates, by the way, just “happened” to be a personal black friend of Obama’s.

Obama’s attitude of Officer Darren Wilson was that of guilt, though Wilson was never indicted or charged.  Wilson’s life was, however, ruined forever though not convicted of any crime.

Holder had the opportunity to make a statement when Black Panthers barricaded the polls in Philadelphia with weapons they carried, but Holder refused to take any actions whatsoever.

Obama has fanned racist flames, whenever he could, in Ferguson and in Baltimore.  It’s no secret that he wants to federalize police nationally.

Cops are not saints and there are racist cops.  I readily admit that; I’d be a fool not to.

A black male was baldly murdered for taking leg bail on a white police officer following a traffic stop.  That cop, University of Cincinnati Police Officer Ray Tensing, now in fact does face murder charges for the killing of Sanuel DuBose in July of 2015.  DeKalb County (GA) Police Officer Robert Olsen was indicted for murder in January of this year involving the shooting of Anthony Hill, a naked black man with PTSD.  A Portsmouth (VA) police officer, Stephen Rankin, was indicted for murder in September of 2015 for the shooting death of William Chapman, a black young man, stemming from a shoplifting call at a WalMart when Chapman charged at the officer

But these are the few exceptions and not the rule.  This doesn’t count Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson who was not charged at all after the shooting of Michael Brown, as well as countless other officers uncharged in various shootings around the country.  This also doesn’t take into account the white males who have been shot and killed at the hands of black police officers — a fact entirely unaddressed by media.

Statistically, roughly 5% of police shootings fall under circumstances that are questionable according to the Washington Post.  The vast majority of individuals shot and killed by police officers were armed with guns and killed after attacking police officers or civilians or making other direct threats.  Of the 960 people killed by police in 2015, 564 were armed with a gun.  281 were armed with another weapon.  Almost half have been white, a quarter have been black and one-sixth have been Hispanic.

Fact: doctors kill roughly 400,000 people per year in the United States.  Doctors are the #3 killer in the US, right behind heart disease and cancer.  Clearly, the nation is screaming for “doctor control.”

On October 24th of last year, my department lost Deputy Danny Oliver, who was shot and killed during a suspicious person contact adjacent a motel.  That same suspect fled the scene, shot a civilian, and then killed Placer County Sheriff’s Detective Michael Davis Jr a short time later.  Detective Michael David Davis Jr. was killed 26 years — to the day — after his own law enforcement father was killed.  Both deputies were slain by a Mexican national who had been deported twice and had drug arrests.

“The rule of law makes society possible,” Mr Barack Hussein Obama said today during a news conference regarding Baton Rouge.  There is a staggering lack of leadership in this nation because of Barack Hussein Obama and, in my opinion, this is quite purposeful for the reasons via the examples I illustrated above.  Mr Obama by his words and actions and continuing tendencies has set a tone and created a climate that has emboldened and empowered people to push and challenge law enforcement to the point where officers nationwide are being ambushed and assassinated outright.

Because of this “tone,” the NAACP is now calling for certain police departments to be defunded.

Mr Obama sets the tone for the nation.  Tone noted.  And I’m so very tired of it.

“Rule of law.”  Right, Mr Obama.  The same “rule of law” continuously avoided by those in power, such as Hillary Rodham Clinton, yourself, William Jefferson Clinton and any number of the political power brokers in DC, aided and abetted by Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch, James Comey and others too numerous to mention.

“All animals are equal, some are more equal than others.”

Rule of law” you say, Mr Barack Hussein Obama?

America needs to have the back of its law enforcement officers.  We should be thankful for its Silverbacks and its Sheepdogs.  I am still a Sheepdog.

When all you do, however, is attack your Sheepdogs, then the wolves appear in greater numbers and threaten your sheep.

Unless that’s your actual plan.

It’s no more complicated than that.

Who is responsible for the war on cops?

The courageous Sheriff of Milwaukee County, David Clarke, tells you precisely who he believes is responsible for this current war on law enforcement officers:

Barack Hussein Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder, the Head Racists in DC.  The so-called “leader” of the United States of America and his former AG.

Obama sets the tone and the pace for the administration in DC and, by dint of that, the tone for the rest of those who follow he and his fellow political Leftists.

Trayvon Martin became Barack Hussein Obama’s son.  Obama didn’t have all the facts but proclaimed Martin a victim.  Zimmermann was found not guilty, though Obama had already found him guilty.

Obama stated with Bully Pulpit firmness that the Cambridge Police Department “acted stupidly” in the arrest of professor Henry Gates, though Obama didn’t have all the facts.  Gates, by the way, just “happened” to be a personal black friend of Obama’s.

Obama’s attitude of Officer Darren Wilson was that of guilt, though Wilson was never indicted or charged.  Wilson’s life was, however, ruined forever though not convicted of any crime.

Holder had the opportunity to make a statement when Black Panthers barricaded the polls in Philadelphia with weapons they carried, but Holder refused to take any actions whatsoever.

Obama has fanned racist flames, whenever he could, in Ferguson and in Baltimore.  It’s no secret that he wants to federalize police nationally.

No one seems to remember that, in 2014, he nominated Debo Adegbile to the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice.  Adegbile is such a flaming Leftist that this occurred:

In February 2014, six major law enforcement organizations representing more than 1 million law enforcement officers across the country, including the Fraternal Order of Police, sent scathing letters to senators and Obama opposing Adegbile’s nomination. Adding insult to injury, it was later revealed these organizations weren’t consulted before Obama put Adegbile up for the position. Maureen Faulkner, Officer Faulker’s widow (slain by black murderer Mumia Abu-Jamal, whom Adegbile defended. -BZ), was also left in the dark. 

Adegbile’s nomination was such an affront to justice, the rule of law and the law enforcement community he was voted down by the Democrat-controlled Senate, 52-47. Regardless, the White House called his failed confirmation a “travesty.”

“The Senate’s failure to confirm Debo Adegbile to head the Civil Rights Division at the Department of Justice is a travesty based on wildly unfair character attacks against a good and qualified public servant,” the president said last year when the vote failed. 

What about Saturday, where Black Lives Matter chanted, at the Minnesota state fair, “pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon”?

Of course you saw that story plastered all over the mainstream media and the American Media Maggots, right?  What?  You didn’t?

Look, we already know that Obama has an anti-police philosophy; it was acquired during his youth when raised by Socialists and Communists, and emphasized by his education and associations with William Ayers, Bernardette Dohrn, Reverend Wright, and with books such as Saul Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals and knowledge of the Cloward-Piven Strategy.

What I wonder is this: if Obama, Leftists and Progressives hate cops, and Obama, Leftists, Progressives and Demorats hate guns — you may as well include our military too — then what or who is left to protect the citizens of the United States?

Good intentions?  Kind words?

The United Nations?

BZ

P.S.

What further confuses me is this: Leftists and Progressives seem to disdain all forms of authority.  Yet the greatest, most unmoving and unflinching authority of all is the Imperial Barack Hussein Obama, he of the executive order pen, and Racist In Chief.

 

Mark Cuban a racist? No; Cuban is a realist

Mark CubanDallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is under fire for alleged “racist” remarks he made at a business conference.  Read the remarks and then tell me: were they racist?

From YahooNews.com:

Mavericks owner Cuban under fire for comments touching on race

by Lisa Maria Garza

Overcoming bigotry requires acknowledging internal prejudices, Cuban said in a video-recorded interview shown on Wednesday at the GrowCo convention hosted by Inc magazine.

“If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it’s late at night, I’m walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street, there’s a guy that has tattoos all over his face – white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere – I’m walking back to the other side of the street,” he said in the interview that was posted on the Internet.

Cuban just happens to be correct, as he is no racist for simply having the temerity to rip a page from the journal of Captain Obvious.

But wait; it gets even better.

Cuban, who spoke the truth and made no racist statement, is now walking his remarks back according to the NYDailyNews.com:

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban offers apology to Trayvon Martin’s family after making ‘black kid in a hoodie’ remark

by Bernie Augustine

“The “black kid in a hoodie” remark led to comparisons to the Trayvon Martin slaying, something Cuban apologized for on Twitter later Thursday.

“In hindsight I should have used different examples. I didn’t consider the Trayvon Martin family, and I apologize to them for that. Beyond apologizing to the Martin family, I stand by the words and the substance of the interview,” Cuban wrote. “I think that helping people improve their lives, helping people engage with people they may fear or not understand, and helping people realize that while we all may have our prejudices and bigotries, we have to learn that it’s an issue that we have to control. that it’s part of my responsibility as an entrepreneur to try to solve it.”

In my opinion Trayvon Martin was a little thug.  And the man who shot him was found not guilty.  As with O.J. Simpson, get over it.  The juries spoke.

That said, we can obviously have no national much less a brief and regional discussion of race in any form without someone getting their Race Panties in a bunch.

With, again, more GOWPs and others getting involved in an issue that won’t ever be solved until it can actually be addressed and people don’t automatically cut others off at the knee who wish to honestly address the topic.

Because Cuban is correct.  Blacks and young thugs wear hoodies because it sends a message.  It allows them to hide their faces and not be recognized for crimes.  Hoodies and baggy sagging pants represent prison and jail culture.  Gangbangers and thugs wear hoodies even in the summer because it sends a message.  Gangbangers and thugs wear facial tattoos because it sends a message.  No legitimate business would ever hire a piece-o-crap human whose face was tattooed.  Because: it sends a message.

And if people are too stupid to realize that, they are apparently too stupid to walk and swing their arms simultaneously.

BZ

P.S.

I just recently tried to get into the Hugh Hewitt radio show regarding this very topic, and was unceremoniously hung-up on by a female screener when I revealed my opinion.  Because it conflicted with Hugh’s assertion that Mark Cuban is in fact a racist for making his statement as documented above.  Nice to know.  You can either have an honest discussion about race or you can be a coward.

 

Sen. Tim Scott wasn’t invited to event commemorating MLK march on Washington

Trayvon MLKAnd why is that even remotely important?

Because Senator Scott is the only black in the US Senate.

But wait; there’s more: he’s a Republican from South Carolina.

You want to talk about racism?  How about thousands and thousands of racists all huddled up in DC in support of more racism?  And the rampant hypocrisy of not inviting the only black senator in the entire country?  But: he’s not needed.

Senator Tim Scott, (R), SCSenator Tim Scott, (R), South Carolina

Keep it up, folks.  I’m thinking there’s some pushback coming.

BZ

P.S.
And where was our current sitting black SCOTUS justice, Clarence Thomas?  Colin Powell?  Condoleezza Rice?  Allen West?  Michael Steele?  Herman Cain?  Janice Rogers Brown?  Keith Butler?  Larry Elder?  Elbert Guillory? E.W. Jackson?  Mia Love?  Star Parker?  Thomas Sowell?

Yes: all uninvited and — all Conservatives or Republicans.

The racism and blatant hypocrisy can’t be more clear than that.

And, oh yeah: MLK Jr was a Republican.
