"Cruel and Unusual"

The Constitution prohibits “cruel and unusual punishment.” But that doesn’t stop liberal “lawmakers” from passing laws that ARE “cruel and unusual punishment,” and they remain in force until they are declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. But by then, the damage has been done to many people. Such a law has been passed in Seattle, Washington. It requires that all guns be “properly secured” according to state guidelines, or a $10,000.00 (crippling) fine will be assessed. If that’s not “cruel and unusual punishment,” I don’t know what is. And when that laws is DECLARED unconstitutional after many years of being enforced, there will be many people who are “wiped out” by a “technicality” if their attempts at “securing” their guns are not perfect, according to state inspectors.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE! Gallup had poll about how Americans viewed the NRA and gun control and, wonder of wonders, they found out most Republicans viewed NRA favorably, while most Dumocrats viewed them unfavorably. They also found that the “party gap” has QUADRUPLED since they began asking those questions in 1989. No kidding! Seems to me they just didn’t find as many people to ask their questions in 1989 and, as they continued to ask them, they got more answers, leading to the “quadrupling” number. Frankly, I believe just as many people had similar opinions in 1989, but were not found and asked those questions.

ANTI GUN NONSENSE: In Great Britain recently, a man fired a paint ball gun as a “warning” to an intruder—and got charged with attempted murder of the intruder! A PAINTBALL gun! The intruder arrogantly told the farmer that, “I’m going to take your farm,” as he proceeded slowly toward the man brandishing a large stick. Whereupon the homeowner fired into the ground, stopping the man, who was carrying that stick in a threatening manner. After the homeowner had to have a private security firm to find and arrest the man, he later found the man (who was illegally trespassing on his property and threatening him with physical harm) had actually charged him with attempted murder, and the cops “bought it.” Talk about stupid cops! It is this kind of thing that gives the cops a bad name.

HE’S GOT NOTHING: Bob Mueller was appointed by an anti-Trump DOJ executive to find something, ANYTHING they could use to frame President Trump before he found, and removed THEM from power, because THEY were members of the swamp. In more than a year, he has found NOTHING he could use against Trump. All he has found is a tenuous connection between a lender and the Trump campaign. A connection that didn’t last long, and it got a former campaign worker (Paul Manafort) in “big trouble” for some things he is alleged to have done DECADES before he ever had ANY connection to ANYBODY who MIGHT have been part of one of Trump’s campaigns.

TELLING THE DIFFERENCE: In Chicago, how do you tell the difference between a gang killing an a cop killing? The direction in which the bullets are going, maybe? The cops killed a man who was fleeing and reaching for a gun. That makes no difference, I suppose, to the “citizens” who are protesting that. What are the cops supposed to do? Wait until he gets his gun out and aimed at a cop before they “cancel his check?” As many of the very people who are protesting themselves are involved in shootings of other citizens, it’s a wonder they have time to protest.

ONE MAN’S OPINION: The Meuller “investigation” is coming under more and more criticism as “more and more people are realizing that his ‘investigation’ is a corrupt witch hunt, designed to bring a president down by whatever means necessary, legal or illegal.” What amazes me is that it took this long for them to “tumble” to a fact long known by everybody with any degree of INTELLIGENCE… Britain is one of the tightest when it comes to anti-gun laws for its citizens. But when it comes to the Queen, ARMED gunmen are EVERYWHERE to “protect” her. Why do her subjects not rate the same degree of protection? That’s a question I’d like to ask her if I was ever allowed to talk to her. But there will always be an ARMED thugs between her and me...
