Gun Control the Obama Way

[alfsauve]

Another hot issue besides gun control is "talk radio".  Specifically, conservative talk radio.   There has been as much Internet talk and chatter about "The Fairness Doctrine" as there has been about the AWB.  The below link is about how Obama may go about implementing "fairness of outcome" without actually passing any legislation. 

Briefly, by using existing rules and regulations, liberals can just as effectively shut down conservative talk radio through threats and intimidation as they could through passing legislation.     This is the very effective tactic that Obama has used and taught others to use as part of Chicago's Developing Communities Project and Acorn in forcing banks to make loans to people otherwise unable to qualify for such loans.   They even have a name for this:  Alinsky jujitsu.

So using the BATFE and the Justice department, the new administration could cause force draconian rules and enforcement on FFLs, and manufacturers that would force many out of business and raise the cost of gun ownership and operation through the roof.

Just food for thought on how the new president may be able to satisfy the Brady Bunch at the same time not upsetting the democratic voting base.

SEMPER VIGILANTIS

I will admit to listening to a lot of Christian Radio.  I have been and continue to wait to hear them talking about the censorship that may be coming down the pipe.  Christian broadcasters have spent a lot of time in the recent past to try and keep themselves on the air and churches doors open if they address Biblical issues that disagree with the liberal agenda.

Watch the censorship come!  My guess is that it will start with Christian Broadcasting, move toward organized churches, and expand from there.  This is not me just being paranoid.  I am basing this thought off the fact they have already tried this approach, and all they need to do is dust it off and tweak it ... just like the gun bans they openly admit that they now know where they failed and how to do it "right."

Look out!  An attack on one Right opens a crack that leads to attacks on all Rights!

We can't let any of that happen - it only gets worse. Whether you listen to Christian or Conservative or any other genre, it doesn't matter - we all must band together to stop any assault on our rights. It must be met with brute force by letters & petitions etc. & only if necessary any other action deemed fit to the threat. If we 'wait & see' all is lost. Start writing now on any & all subjects to your congressmen, senators (state & fed) as well as Pres, VP (including elects) as well as judges (all levels), newsmedia & any other source possible. Also local community education (your churches & other organizations) for the ignorant - meaning the general public who have no clue about freedoms & their encroachment.

We have a lot of work to do!!!

Can anyone explain "net neutrality" to me?  This is another thing I keep hearing them push.

OK ... Here's how we did it back when we farrowed:

Step #1 - A day after birth your get all your gear, vaccine, and iron together;
Step #2 - You gently remove the pigs from the sow and into a clothes basket;
Step #3 - One by one you select a pig and give it a vaccine in one side of the neck, an iron shot in the other side, clip the tail about a quarter inch from the butt, and if it is a gilt you place it back with the sow;
Step #4 - If it is a boar, you turn it on its back, place your thumb on its belly and press;
Step #5 - As the testicles "bulge" to the rear you make a small slit in the skin on each one with a #12 scalpel;
Step #6 - Pressure will cause the testicles to "pop out," grasp firmly with your fingers and tug firmly (I still cringe at the thought alone);
Step #7 - Spray incisions with iodine and place barrow back with his mommy.

What ....

What is that ...

Not neutered 

Oooooops ... Sorry ...  Color me red

Sounds like a good thing , but if dems are for it there MUST be a catch.

Yes with all the liberal "code words" I'd be suspicious, but this is a good thing.   Tim Berners-Lee and Vint Cerf, both revered internet pioneers, are in favor of Net Neutrality.    Bascially, it says the Internet and it's content should not be "controlled" by any entity.  This stems from the desired by the larger carriers to "push" certain content and possibly "hold back" or even censor other.  The problem is who decides what is acceptable.  Anything to do with firearms might become restricted depending on who holds the power.

OK, Thanks.

This is what I thought it was but I was like Tom, "If the Dems like it there must be a catch" so I figured I was reading it wrong.
