Fighting the Nanny State Since 2003

Who would have thought after all this time they could improve on the design of the condom

The best ideas are always the ones that make you say “why didn’t I think of that?”, aren’t they?

This is getting ridiculous.  First it was the death of thousands of fish “set free” by the Animal Liberation Front in England.

Now other geniuses have set fire to a pet shop in Boston, crisping the critters inside.

Via Instapundit comes the story of the rally you never heard about

35,000 people and not one mention in the NYTimes or the Washington Post.  That’s dereliction of duty.

And England becomes more like Orwell’s “1984″ every day.

By Dave Kopel.

Advanced Topics in Human Rights Law. Exam, Spring 2010. Question 4: One day, a woman goes to a gun store in Florida. She provides picture identification to the store owner, who then, pursuant to the National Instant Check System, uses his telephone to contact law enforcement, and ensure that the woman has no criminal record. The woman then purchases an expensive double-barreled shotgun, manufactured in the United Kingdom. She plans to use the gun for all lawful purposes, but primarily for sporting clays. In accordance with Florida law, she did not need to obtain a government license to possess the gun.

Two years later, a man breaks into her home at night. The woman reasonably (and correctly) believes that the man intends to rape and torture her. She also, correctly, believes that there is absolutely no possibility that the man will kill her. She shoots the man and kills him.

Summarize the human rights violations

The answers will scare the heck out of you.

I swear, England gets more and more depressing every day.  Threatening someone with arrest because they have a garden gnome in their yard?  While the crime rate in England is three times that of the United States?  Misplaced priorities, fellas.

Arms and the Law has the scoop.

From the report:

The severe consequences of firearm use therefore necessitate more detailed and stricter guidelines than other means of force. 26 Even when firearm use does not result in death, the injuries caused by firearm shots can be paralyzing, painful, and may immobilize a person for a much longer period of time than would other methods of temporary immobilization. 27 The raining handbook for police on human rights practices and standards produced by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights says that “firearms are to be used only in extreme circumstance”. 28 Any use of a firearm by a law enforcement official outside of the above-mentioned situational context will likely be incompatible with human rights norms.

But remember, Kofi says the U.N. isn’t out to take your guns.

Police in England say they’ll investigate why a 21-year old was shot dead after standing up to a gang of thugs near his home.  He had stood up to these criminals a few months earlier and was stabbed, but his widow says police wouldn’t even take a statement about the crime.

There’s no word on whether or not police will investigate why the suspect in the murder, a 14-year old boy(!), has been released on bail for the homicide.

So says London’s police chief

Of course the residents are saying something different.

This story appears to be a parody of the stories of gun control in the United States, until you realize that a) Scotland banned handguns several years ago and b) this is Scotland (or England, or Wales, or Ireland) that we’re talking about.

So yes, the ban on swords is real. Foolish, but real. I imagine ten years from now we’ll see the call to ban all blunt objects in Scotland.

Of course, it happened in England.

Reader Jim emailed me this story from England.

STUNNED Jacob Sadiq came home to find a burglar slumped DEAD in his favourite armchair.

The intruder, Jason Davies, 33, had collapsed after taking drugs while ransacking the property.

Mr Sadiq, 30, said: “I was in disbelief. I first thought he was just lying there so I rang 999.”

Davies, a career criminal, had been released from court only hours before after admitting burglary and violent behaviour at a fire station.

Despite having 150 convictions for theft and violence, a judge gave him a suspended sentence.

Good golly. It’s a good thing this thug died of his own causes, or else Jacob Sadiq would have been in some real trouble.

Well, if you’ve read the paper (or listened to NRAnews.com), you know that for now, the UN was stopped dead in its tracks at the small arms summit.

This is a pretty typical story about the end of the conference. I especially like this part:

The meeting was dogged from the start by zealous members of the U.S. National Rifle Association, who flooded the United Nations with letters falsely accusing it of secretly plotting to take away Americans’ guns on July 4, a U.N. holiday marking U.S. Independence Day when delegates did not meet.

The George W. Bush administration, an ally of the rifle association, set the tone from the start when U.S. Undersecretary of State for Arms Control Robert Joseph laid out a long list of proposals that Washington would not accept.

Oh Irwin. You sad little man. Go back and read the transcripts of the opening statements. Mexico, Indonesia, and Uganda would be good places to start. Go read Dave Kopel’s new article. Go read Wayne’s new book.

I have no idea how many days of the conference you attended Irwin, but if this is your honest impression of the conference after attending all ten days, you’ve got some big problems.

It’s me, apparently.

I’m guessing this guy is another one who blames the object, not the owner.

**Update**

Hmmm… maybe he’s right about me being an idiot. I forgot a “who” up there before. It hopefully now makes more sense.

The latest column is up at Townhall.com.

The funny thing is that IANSA is linking to my columns, but I haven’t seen a single comment there or here from an anti-gunner. Nor have I received a single piece of anti-gun e-mail.

I guess when you have George Soros and his billions, you don’t actually need any supporters.

Another day, another column at Townhall. Once again the subject is the UN Small Arms summit.


Posted by: Cam

New column detailing the U.S. opening statement at the UN Small Arms and Light Weapons conference is up at Townhall.com.

The bottom line? Robert Joseph did a fantastic impersonation of John Bolton’s 2001 speech yesterday. Every American should be thankful that we’ve got guys like him speaking for us.

My latest column is up at Townhall, chock full of honest-to-goodness quotes from the UN diplomats running this conference. Don’t miss what Indonesia had to say.

From former CIA agent Michael Scheuer, on the death of Zarqawi.

“In some ways this is very good news for al Qaeda, because al Qaeda’s forces in Iraq will now focus more on Americans and the Iraqi government, than on simply killing Shias because they’re heretical people,”

And how exactly is that good news for al Qaeda? 

“Joyous news, my brothers!  With the death of our beloved Zarqawi, the time has come to once again strike at the Great Satan!  And with their 21st century military technology and superior numbers, we will not have to wait nearly as long to become martyrs for the cause!” 

To say that Scheuer seems to be overreaching here is an understatement.  This is bad news for al Qaeda, good news for us and the Iraqis.  Will it end all the violence.  Of course not.  Is it a step in the right direction?  Unquestionably so. 

 **Update**

More astute analysis from the Kossacks:

Zarqawi was quite probably a psy ops job in the first place, so what does that make his “death”?

Keep your eyes on the prize:

Gay marriage?
Haditha.

Flag burning?
Haditha!

Brangelina?
HADITHA!

Zarqawi?
HADITHA!!!

—–

How do you know: “he was guilty of masterminding suicide bombings and beheadings of innocent civilians”?  Did you hear this on the MSM? Or are you privy to information the rest of us don’t have access to?

—–

This begs the question, if they had good intelligence as to his whereabouts at a specific time, and special forces in the area, why wouldn’t they try to take al-Zarqawi alive?  

In this circumstance, it’s not as if he could have gotten away.

—–

The right way to handle this would have been to say nothing … “bombing attack killed some insurgents …”

And, in coming months, have side conversations about ‘boy, odd isn’t it that we aren’t hearing anything from him …’

On the intel side, use the terrorist / insurgent communications about ‘what is going on’ … ‘was he really killed’ … such to help find / track others …

Instead, this foolish glee will help make him a martyr … and, yet again, we have a ‘major milestone’ … ‘major step forward’ … and such which may  – or may — not have real impact on what is going on in Iraq.

Did Zarqawi really matter as individual … or will there be a Spartacus-type moment with tens now stating “I am Zarqawi …”  

But, again, believe BushCo blew this one in how they’re handling it … any surprise?

A few days ago Ana Marie Cox (formerly Wonkette, now just a mere columnist at Time) wrote the following about DailyKos founder Markos Zuniga.

He’s the left’s own Kurt Cobain and Che Guevara rolled into one, dripping sex appeal for progressives for whom debate has become synonymous with losing, who need a muscular liberal answer to the cowboy swagger adopted by the Bush Administration and its fans.

Apparently Kos and his followers combine the sheer batshit lunacy of Che Guevara with the self-descrutive behavior of Kurt Cobain.  That’s sexy to some people?

Peter Beinart’s new book: The Good Fight : Why Liberals—and Only Liberals—Can Win the War on Terror and Make America Great Again, seems to be deeply flawed.

I mean, look at the numbers Jim has posted.

50% of Democrats say “dismantling the al Qaeda network” is a top priority for them. More Dems want to pull out of Iraq and stop the global spread of AIDS.

41% of Democrats don’t support or don’t know if they support the toppling of the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Only 57.3% of Democrats answered “yes” when asked if they’d support military action to destroy a terrorist training camp.

Seems to me like Beinart’s got a tough job of convincing liberals to want to fight the War on Terror, much less convince folks like me that they can do a better job.
