New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said on Sunday: Sometimes government does know best. And in those cases, Americans should just cede their rights.
“I do think there are certain times we should infringe on your freedom,” Mr. Bloomberg said, during an appearance on NBC. He made the statement during discussion of his soda ban — just shot down by the courts — and insistence that his fight to control sugary drink portion sizes in the city would go forth.
And there you have it. Leftists in government are inherently smarter than you, more highly educated than you, prettier, dress finer, and are more than willing to impose their feelings and emotions upon you simply “for your own good” — no matter prior laws, no matter such niggling little things like the US Constitution or that quite troublesome Bill of Rights.
Yes, frankly, Leftists are simply better than you, me, all of us. So they’ll simply do what they will with the Proles, the Serfs, the Groundlings, because we are too stupid to be “allowed” to run our own lives.
The only thing Leftists want from us? Money. Fork over the cash and shut the fuck up.
On February 22, “Right Views” reported that a growing number of firearm companies have suspended the sale of guns to states, counties, cities and municipalities that restrict their citizens’ rights to own them.
In just two weeks, the number of companies participating in what has been named the “Firearms Equality Movement,” has more than tripled from 34 companies to 118.
The Police Loophole lists every company and links to the statements that each has released regarding their new policies.
Let me just throw this into the mix: what did the Obama Administration already do regarding private business in America? That’s right, he forced the government into seizure of two of the three largest American automakers, GM and Chrysler. The result no one saw coming or wanted to report? Oh yes, that hundreds of dealerships closed.
“It is not at all clear that the greatly accelerated pace of the dealership closings during one of the most severe economic downturns in our nation’s history was either necessary for the sake of the companies’ economic survival or prudent for the sake of the nation’s economic recovery,” the report said.
What happens when the Obama Administration can’t get any more Colt or S&W or Ruger or Remington parts or firearms?
BERKELEY (CBS SF) – A Berkeley city councilman has suggested that a tax on email may be a wise way to help fund the United States Postal Service, according to the blog Berkeleyside.
District 8 Supervisor Gordon Wozniak, who represents an area that includes the Claremont Hotel and the eastern end of the UC Berkeley campus, made the comments Tuesday as city officials moved to halt the sale of a Post Office building on Allston Way due to a decline in business.
But shoot, the tax would only be teensy-weensy:
“There should be something like a bit tax. I mean a bit tax could be a cent per-gigabit and they would still make, probably, billions of dollars a year. And there should be, also, a very tiny tax on email,” Wozniak said at Tuesday’s meeting.
This is getting a little creepy. According to one estimate, since last year the Department of Homeland Security has stockpiled more than 1.6 billion bullets, mainly .40 caliber and 9mm.
DHS also purchased 2,700 Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicles (MRAP).
It is, essentially — at 14+ tons — a tank on wheels. And a very far cry from the standard LE Lenco BearCat which is popular with law enforcement agencies across the nation regarding SWAT and other specialized applications/units. See the Lenco BearCat, at 8.5 tons.
I’d say there was an — ahem — massive difference between the two vehicles.
Perhaps time to submit a video here:
That seen, though I have been accused of being something of a tinfoil-hat-wearer, I would submit today’s Tom Sullivan show for comparison. He asked on Monday:
This isn’t the hated or disgusted InfoWars; it’s something of a mainstream Conservative reporter wondering what is happening.
You’d have to be brain-dead to think there isn’t some purposeful activity occurring within the continental United States — and it doesn’t have anything to do with the adherence to the Bill of Rights of the Constitution — but instead with the abrogation thereof.
White House economic adviser Gene Sperling admits that, yes, in fact, the sequestration was President Obama’s plan:
“We put forth the design of” the sequestration, Sperling said in the video.
Mr Obama LIES and will do ANYthing to enable the disabling of this country in order to reassemble it in the fashion that HE envisions. Nothing more than, simply put: the Cloward-Piven Strategy.
