Ever ask yourself WHY neo-Nazis and Mistaken Identities commit violent acts?

Here, courtesy of David Codrea, are the first six chapters of an old hate-filled anti-semite's book called "Kill the Best Gentiles!" With luck, the anal sphincter who wrote it will be dead by morning and roasting in Hell a second or two later.

The big-time "racial warrior" managed to kill a security guard at the Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C. as described here. He is even now being celebrated on racist and anti-semite web sites. Big deal. A gang-banger on meth could have done a better technical job. If this is their idea of a "racial warrior" then so's Mickey Mouse.

Kindly read the article and I will have a comment on the other side.

"The Akron Beacon-Journal recently reported that Brady Campaign ... president Paul Helmke addressed the Akron Roundtable on May 21."

"The story notes that Helmke delivered his usual misleading statistics and hyperbole to the ... forum ... along with a couple of accidental admissions that point to the fact that his organization's gun control strategy can never succeed." ...

"The newspaper published another slip at the conclusion of the article, quoting him as saying 'Guns don't kill people. People kill people. Guns don't fire by themselves.'"

"There you have it - Paul Helmke admits what pro-gun advocates - who have worked long and hard to fight the Brady Campaign ... have been saying for years! ..." ...

"A gun rights rally in Chicago, of all places? A bit counterintuitive, perhaps, but it's one more sign that the gun rights advocacy movement in Illinois is tired of playing defense--that now, it's the citizen disarmament advocates who are going to have to try to stop us, rather than the other way around." ...

"The U.S. Supreme court issued a ruling recognizing the Second Amendment is an INDIVIDUAL right of the PEOPLE on June 26, 2008."

"In light of that, [ISRA] and IllinoisCarry.com are sponsoring a Second Amendment Freedom Rally in the heart of downtown Chicago to celebrate the one year anniversary of this historic decision. ..." ...

"OK--so when and where, again? Glad you asked:"

"Jews For The Preservation Of Firearms Ownership or JPFO, Inc. has released a new video available for viewing. Titled 'No Guns For Negroes' this timely video exposes the racist roots of gun control/civilian disarmament in America. This video can be viewed online at www.jpfo.org."

"It likewise was posted at the KABA or Keep And Bear Arms web-site for Friday, May 29, 2009 at www.keepandbeararms.com. This educational video addresses historical facts rarely mentioned and is 100 percent exceptional."

"Too bad our socialist public schools, colleges, and universities today would no doubt choose to ignore this and consider it politically incorrect. ..." ...

... "... Since the [Heller] ruling, city-wide gun bans continue to be enforced across the country. Cities claim that the Second Amendment applies only at the Federal Level ... Supreme Court justice nominee, Sonia Sotomayor, agrees. ..."

"Earlier this week, a U.S. District Court upheld a gun ban in Chicago and Oak Park, Illinois, citing that the Second Amendment has no bearing on state law."

"The Second Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights is the Supreme Law of the Land. ... if the Second Amendment is deemed to apply only at the federal level, then surely all of our other rights will be thrown out, in effect, nullifying the Constitution." ...

"Sen. Russell Feingold (D-Wisc.), who believes that the 2nd Amendment is an individual right, on Wednesday was meeting with Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, who apparently holds a different view of the 2nd Amendment."

"As a federal appeals court judge, Sotomayor signed an opinion (in Maloney v. Cuomo) saying that the Second Amendment bars the federal government – but not the states -- from infringing on an individual's right to keep and bear arms. ..."

"Feingold told CNSNews.com last week ... that he plans to question Sotomayor about the 2nd Amendment during her confirmation hearings, which are expected to happen later this summer." ...
 

Build a Survival Arsenal You can be Proud Of

"Some time ago I wrote The Poor Man's Survival Arsenal and The Poor Man's Survival Arsenal Revisited, both articles detailed a bare bones set of firearms – this basic set of firearms would cover everything from foraging to self defense, yet be low cost."

"This post expands on the concept of building an arsenal while considering different budgets and needs. For some (myself included) spending $5,000 or more for a set of firearms is impossible, for others this would be no problem."

"Below I’ll outline five arsenals covering a broad range of tasks, needs and budgets. If nothing else my suggestions should generate discourse."

"I work at Wal-Mart Arsenal" ...

"The Government Welfare Arsenal" ...

"I have a full time Job Arsenal" ...

"Two Jobs and Maxed Credit Card Arsenal" ...

"And Finally the Yuppie Survival Arsenal" ...

"Despite a Democratic Congress and President, it's been a bad time for common sense measures to curb gun violence."

"Earlier this year, a voting rights bill for the citizens of the District of Columbia was stalled by a Senate amendment that would strip the city of its right to regulate guns. And last month, the credit card reform bill was hijacked in the Senate and amended so that concealed guns are now permitted in our national parks."

"Here's hoping the majority of Americans who support sane gun control begin to turn the tide."

"Bills have now been introduced in both the House and Senate to at long last close the absurd and dangerous gun show loophole which permits the sale of guns without any criminal background check." ...
 

After Holocaust Museum Shooting Brady Campaign Calls On Congress To Stop Weakening Gun Laws

"Paul Helmke, President of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, issued the following statement on the shooting at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum:"

"'The Brady Campaign extends sympathies to the innocent victims and others affected in today's shooting at the Holocaust Museum. This shows that having even more guns in more places is the wrong answer to America's gun violence problem.'"

"'This shooting occurred in the shadow of the Washington Monument just two blocks from the National Mall, in a museum dedicated to the remembrance of hate-directed violence that has seen almost 30 million visitors in the few years since it opened.'" ...

"President Barack Obama is the best friend gun dealers have had in a long time."

"Thanks to widespread paranoia among Second Amendment fanatics, gun and ammo sales are booming. ..." ...

"Obama, to be sure, is no champion of gun rights. You probably won't hear him talking about prying a gun from his cold, dead hand."

"On the other hand, though, there's nothing to suggest that Obama is a bigger threat to gun ownership than most other middle-of-the-road politicians. ..." ...
-------

Submitter's Note: The psychiatric definition of 'paranoia' includes: "characterized by systematized delusions" while the common definition involves "baseless or excessive suspicion". Given PBO's own 'Urban Policy Plan' to close the gun show loophole, make guns childproof and pass a permanent federal semi-auto weapons ban and his support of backdoor gun control via CIFTA I would hardly call our belief of his hostility either 'delusional' or 'baseless'.

"They've done it again. The Tennessee legislature recently overruled Gov. Phil Bredesen and passed the 'guns in restaurants' bill, allowing patrons to carry guns into establishments that serve alcohol." ...

"To be fair, I've never been a big fan of guns. I think there is something crass and unromantic about them. It seems wrong that something that takes very little effort to fire can have such devastating and far-reaching consequences." ...

"I'm just bothered a little by the fact that I might have to sit next to a person packing heat while I'm trying to enjoy my happy hour beer." ...

Submitter's Note: So will you stop going to McDonalds because you "might have to sit next to a person packing heat while I'm trying to enjoy my Happy Meal"?
 

Holocaust Museum shooting short-circuited by a gun

"The shooting at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. was a very short event. It was stopped by a man with a gun protecting the rest of the people in the building. In Washington, they have lots of armed guards. In the rest of the country, and especially in schools, there are no armed guards. A crazy can walk into a restaurant or museum anywhere and there are no protectors to stop their mayhem."

"I am so very sorry that yet again, we read about someone moving from hateful words to murderous actions. I want us all to be mindful though, that an armed person protected many many more than were shot. The spread of armed citizens with concealed weapons can make us all safer as we come and go in public. ..." ...

"Violence happens in an instant, and Wednesday's shooting at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. demonstrates not only the futility of gun control laws, but that when such incidents occur, even anti-gun politicians can be candid…with an agenda."

"That candor can sometimes make someone look rather foolish."

"District of Columbia Mayor Adrian Fenty, who pushed the Heller case through the Supreme Court only to wind up as the guy ultimately responsible for the high court's landmark Second Amendment ruling, told reporters at a press conference that the museum shooting was 'an extremely isolated incident.'" ...
 

Holocaust Museum: Shooting in DC 'Gun Free Zone'

"It should be noted that the museum, as well as all of Washington D.C. are 'gun free zones' as far as carrying guns by non-government law enforcement personnel is concerned. Which is ironic when you consider the 'Personal Histories' headline on the museum's 'Resistance' page:

"'At that time, a gun and a million dollars, the gun was worth more than a million dollars.'"

"'Never again' is nothing more than a hollow slogan without the means to protect against it. Disarmament helped make genocide possible."

"I've written a lot (One hundred days in: citizen disarmament lobby is getting restless, Brady Campaign rhetoric then and now: what a difference six months makes, and More disappointment for the Brady Campaign) about the Brady Campaign's growing impatience with the Obama administration's reticence, so far, with regard to the radical agenda of forcible citizen disarmament favored by the Brady Bunch. I'm starting to think it's becoming quite a sore point with Mr. Helmke, because last week, he expressed his disappointment in, and impatience with, the Obama administration yet again." ...

"Whenever they're feeling a little heat from constituents for doing something stupid, lawmakers fall back on an old gambit: They blame the media. In this case, they're saying newspapers are sensationalizing the guns-in-bars law by reporting that it'll allow guns in bars. Outrageous!"

"So last week, as the legislature was overriding Gov. Phil Bredesen's veto, Rep. Curry Todd mocked his hometown newspaper as 'the Comical Appeal,' and the grandstanding Sen. Doug Jackson lashed out at the media for failing to write the story the way he would write it—i.e., by pointing out the genius of Doug Jackson." ...

"So, according to the experts, guns offer protection against dangerous people in dangerous places, they are a deterrent to violence, and carrying them provides more safety than not carrying them."

Library of Congress Agents Ask Lawmakers to Give Them Back Their Guns

... "Investigators with the Library's Office of the Inspector General have raised a string of objections after Congress stripped them of their ability to buy and carry firearms." ...

"While investigating crimes in and against the Library of Congress might not sound like the most dangerous job, another official in the inspector general's office said most of their investigations take them off site, into some dangerous neighborhoods in the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia and other states."

"... [Inspector General] Schornagel said much of his agents' work 'requires a firearm.' He said there's always the chance a suspect could get violent -- plus the guns can be a deterrent ..."

"'It's a big safety issue,' he said." ...
-------

Submitter's Note: If D.C. is so dangerous, why can't the residents be armed as well?

KABA Note: Perhaps if Congress clarified that the agents could carry while actually performing their duties the IG would be happy. Or perhaps he would continue to squall like a castrated calf that his 'Only Ones' are more special than the peasants and so should be allowed to ignore the laws which would otherwise apply.

"Russia's police force is blighted by corruption, brutality and outright torture. When a police major went on a fatal shooting rampage in a Moscow supermarket in April, the incident prompted the ouster of Moscow's police chief and fresh promises of reform. In a recent cover package, NEWSWEEK's Russian-language partner, NEWSWEEK Russky, looked at whether the shuffles in the department known as the MVD (Internal Affairs Ministry) could actually make a difference. This article, adapted from a report by Yelizaveta Mayetnaya, Pavel Sedakov and Aleksandr Raskin, examines some of the problems endemic in the Russian force." ...

"I received a link to a very interesting video a few days ago. It took me a little time to get around to watching it due to summer activities, but when I finally did, I was very glad I took the time."

"The video lays out the justification for revolution using scenes from a big variety of movies, and using a big variety of music, interspersed with some historical photos and footage. It is called 'The Four Stages of Revolution' and comes in two parts; the first part, at just over 35 minutes long, is the main body, while the second part runs just under 15 minutes and is almost like footnotes for the first part." ...
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Nations and peoples who forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedoms. — Robert Heinlein
