Black Men Are 14% More Likely To Die By "Firearm Homicide" Than White Men

...Or so the statistics show. So where does the real "gun problem" lie? Is it the gun? The bullets? The police? Hate crimes? Self inflicted gun deaths?

I'll argue it's the culture. As the linked article shows, relating to firearms "black men are more likely to die in homicides" while "white men are more likely to die in suicides". And oddly enough, the figures that established the white suicide rate suggests that 60 percent of all gun related suicides occur in "Western States". This information came from studies done via our government's "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research" database. You can find their link to the information in the article I linked to above as well.

I also believe this study suggests that if black homicides were eliminated from the whole equation our gun homicide rate would drop tremendously. Obviously, we can't exclude those figures from the calculations but I'd suggest some sort of effort be employed to dramatically reduce (in a perfect world, eliminate) all black on black homicides altogether. Though, given our the challenges our society faces today I'd argue that such a reduction would not be a realistic or practical suggestion. Call it what you want, paint any pretty picture of it that you might want to paint but the black on black homicides are not going to simply "go away" via a "gun ban".

If the person in possession of a gun is in possession of that gun to commit a criminal act then that person most likely won't care if the gun he or she is in possession of is "registered" or not. Nor will that person care if the gun is "banned". They're going to use it.

At least one reader of the article, Mike Watkins commented with: "Liberals love to tell you how we should emulate some gun-restricting country, like for instance Sweden, because “their low gun homicide rates prove gun control works.

Come back at them with this: if you remove young urban black male homicides by other young urban black males, from US statistics, our gun homicide rate is about the same as Sweden’s.

THE PROBLEM IS NOT GUNS, THE PROBLEM IS THE SUB-CULTURES WITHIN THE US THAT TEACH THE YOUTH THAT VIOLENCE IS PART OF BEING A MAN."

I'm inclined to agree with Mr. Watkins. One other suggestion that I think should be factored into the study would include those gun related homicides perpetrated by illegal immigrants including those MS-13, etc. folks. Let's factor those figures in and see how low we just might go beyond where the article has our nation at right now.

I'm convinced, given the statistics I've read while reviewing this information that guns are not the problem. Given the varied cultures we've brought into our nation, the wrong people in possession of firearms, their sole purpose of "ownership", their evident intent and their support networks and nefarious incentives suggests the problem lies somewhere other than the "gun" and "legitimate gun ownership". Until we get a grip on our criminal situation we'll continue experiencing this behavior. Homicides will continue to occur and will increase. We need to focus on a solution to the problem, not a politically correct excuse for the problem.

We need to put our "big boy pants" on and admit that our firearms are not the problem, those folks who should never be in possession of them are. We can't effectively "ban" firearms from everyone. We'll only be banning firearms from those who "legally" possess them.

Just sayin'

I Agree. James Comey's Not Credible!

He's not at all credible. After reviewing what I'd already suspected... the possibility that Comey was colluding with the democrats and in particular the democrat elites to get their candidate elected as POTUS I'm convinced Comey's just another liberal shill who's all-in for himself and whatever personal gain he can get. He's not an honorable, non-partisan individual, he's a shill. Just another political hack for his politico handlers to use in their time of need. IMHO.

Here's David Limbaugh's take on this shill Comey. Limbaugh covers it perfectly! Like Limbaugh, I gave him the benefit of the doubt at first. Being very familiar with Law Enforcement and the global angst against ALL law enforcement folks these days I'm inclined to immediately side with the Law Enforcement community first then, if appropriate after all of the facts, information, etc. is in I'll wholly make my mind up accordingly.

In regards to Comey I have. I believe Comey's a bought and paid for liberal shill. A politico's prostitute. He's as corrupt or more corrupt than those he's imprisoned over the years.

Read Limbaugh's article in the link provided above. There's really nothing more to say.



I'll leave it at that.

The Muslim Takeover Of Australia?!

The Muslim Takeover of Australia is happening.

People will ask if there truly is a planned "take-over", a "coup" of sorts by muslims who want Australia to be their next caliphate? Yep, there is and it's happening. I mean, why not! Australia confiscated almost all of the citizens guns several years ago. Only the privileged are allowed to own guns. Australia banished ammunition, Australia opened their borders to "muslim" refugees. Australia's passed and enacted laws that protect muslims, more or less making them a privileged and protected group unlike the rest of the citizens of Australia. Yeah, the muslims are openly trying to take control of Australia.

And why wouldn't they?

Australia's liberal government made themselves the largest, brightest, shiniest, reddest apple on this entire planet to the muslim crowd and now the muslims are making their move. What else would be expected. Threatened with violence, war the Aussies crumbled over time. The Aussies fell to their knees to islam. They've been subdued and now they're submitting.

"Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad …) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. [Sura 9:29, p. 248]"

Thanks to The Middle East Forum and Mark Durie for sharing this revealing information with us.

Mueller's Investigation! Only A Year?!

The "Mueller investigation" has run on for over a year now with "nothing new" or so we're told. Special Counsel Robert Mueller's allegedly been running an "out of control and unaccountable witch hunt against Donald Trump" our POTUS. Special counsel Mueller's been accused of abusing his power, his authority, his mandate "by straying far beyond the scope of his mandate" and he (Mueller) according to the press (liberal AND some conservatives) is in jeopardy of being replaced.

WHY?! I mean, I'm not a Mueller fan. I don't even know him. I don't necessarily like him and I don't necessarily dislike him. He's an investigator at heart. An established, career investigator. Let him do his job. Let him investigate.

I'm not a liberal, I'm not a Republican nor am I anything near a Democrat. I'm not one of those smaller, reactionary "third party" associates and I'm not fond of any party candidates simply because of their "party". I'm a conservative. I'm definitely nowhere near perfect! Not even close. I was raised as a conservative and I was raised to recognize right from wrong and to make my decisions accordingly. I was also raised to accept whatever baggage comes with my decisions and to learn from those decisions- right, wrong or indifferent- then, now, in the future. Logic, common sense and ownership plays a huge part in our life process... or at least it should. Coupled with that comes duty and dedication to yourself, yours and our society. I retired after over forty years of service in the law enforcement career field and am familiar with what it takes to complete a thorough investigation of acts and/or omissions committed by folks. Some of those investigations took years, some are still being investigated. I'm still called back into the fold by folks, by "agencies" to look at challenges to society, law enforcement with a set "fresh eyes" and a "clear mind" in relation to the matter at hand. Several investigations I was assigned and/or performed or helped investigate are still "outstanding". In other words, they're still being investigated but they're not nearly as "fresh" as the new ones being piled on the investigator's desks. The duty bound investigator requires that they all be investigated IN THEIR ENTIRETY... and quite often they can't be.

Obviously I don't know Mueller. But being that career "investigator" I was, I can identify with a lot of his angst, his desire to follow the information to the end. He has legal boundaries that he has to stay within and he's in one helluva politically charged situation. I was lucky. Most of those investigations I did were usually your run of the mill, bad assed idiots who simply went nuts one day and did stupid things. Sure, later in my career I caught quite a few of those planned, pre-meditated, choreographed, "organized" criminal events and yes, I did have folks who would "prefer" I'd simply "get'er-done" fast so as to catch who I could catch and forget about the res. My "handlers" preferred short, sweet investigations that nipped the political element in the bud. They preferred it be wrapped up and that point so I could move on to the next one... or maybe (was it?) so I wouldn't expose the whole puzzle, just the piece(s) they wanted exposed.

"Investigations are outstanding challenges, they provide an outstanding and quite often rewarding career to those who love to be challenged. Every investigation is a puzzle and like any puzzle, every true investigator wants to find all of the pieces and complete the ENTIRE puzzle, not just the pretty picture on the cover. If "it's there", it's there. If it's not, it's not.

For once, I'm "all in" for allowing Mueller to go where he needs to go to get the job done. Legally, he most likely won't be able to complete the puzzle but morally and professionally and personally he's duty-bound. He can't help himself... he's an investigator first, a politico second. He's just trying to solve the whole "puzzle".

Just let the man do his job.

Obama, the king of illegal immigration...

My usual morning read brought me to this particular article found on the American Patriot Daily. The article showcases Obama's accomplishments relating to at least one particular "immigrant" from Kenya. 45 year old illegal immigrant Billy Chemirmir just might have become this nation's most prolific serial killer. His prey? Elderly women. His weapon? Charm and a pillow and there's most likely more like beasts like Chemirmir "out there" roaming our streets.

It's suggested and believed that he's been killing elderly women (at least) since the day he arrived in our country as an illegal immigrant, protected by the obama's wholly lax "immigration laws". And the liberal left supported this animal and those like him with their "open borders", dreamer policies. Obama's policies made our nation more vulnerable to these predators and he knew and still knows it. He even claims he's "proud" of his "accomplishments" regarding immigration.

Obama, he's not our friend. He never was.

Obama And His Administration... Supporting Soros With Our Funds?!

Most of us suspected that the failed POSPOTUS barrack hussein obama and his administration had supported George Soros financially and politically when Soros meddled in Albania's political affairs. Let there be no doubt that there's a "Deep State", "Global Agenda". There's a huge push now more than ever to bring weak, fledgling international communities into the liberal fold. They're promising everything for everyone yet providing little if anything for anyone who climbs on their global bandwagon.

And that piece of shat obummer knew full well the intentions of soros, et. al. I have no doubt that they're still working together to "socialize" the world, one screwed up nation at a time. If the nation's aren't screwed up before the Soros train gets there they will be afterwards. Just ask Abania, France, England, Sweden, etc. It gives a whole new meaning to the East West Management Institute and the "Open Society Foundation"... or not.

Soros is the primary support of the global agenda and he knows he's running out of time. He's trying to ensure his spawn will continue his goal if/when he dies. I'm of the belief that the POS ex-POTUS obama is simply allowing his puppeteer to pull the strings much like what happened when obummer was "in office".

Europe's Self Imposed Demise!

For at least the past two decades Europe has opened it's collective doors to the invaders from islam, from the Middle East. Germany's Chancellor, Angela Merkel embraces her liberal muslims as they pour into the very country she was elected to destroy. She's a surviving child of the communist East German bloc, has surrounded herself with "like" liberals and has relentlessly pursued the demise of Germany as we once knew it. She's not shy about opening the borders and embracing, hell protecting those who would prefer that Germany be destroyed. And it is from the government within, from the current seemingly endless migrant horde of invaders.

When you invite the beast into your home you get the wrath of the beast. From the linked article: "In most European countries—including England, Germany, Italy and Russia, Christian deaths outnumbered Christian births from 2010 to 2015" as the muslim populations continue to increase dramatically! Much like a slime mold, it's only a matter of time before islam devours everything in its path. There's far fewer Christian births than muslim births throughout the world. Europe should prepare for more "lone wolf" muslim attacks on Christians or all things non-muslim. The more the Christian base is reduced, the larger the muslim base grows, in comparison. It's simple mathematics.

Nope, the demise of Europe. England, Sweden, Norway, Germany, France... it's by design. Ancient design and it's certainly not a surprise to those of us who are on the outside looking in. Or at least it shouldn't be.

Bill Maher Defends Laura Ingraham?!

Wait! What?!

Bill Maher defends Laura Ingraham AND Free Speech in a liberal panel discussion about the child activist david hog? What the heck's going on here. Maher's a leftist.

Just when I thought I could actually despise someone enough to wholly cull them off of my list of most unfavorable people never to be read or watched again, I read what Maher's done. Maher defended Laura Ingraham's free speech discussion to a panel of ultra liberals HE GATHERED and interacted with on his show?! I quit drinking a long time ago, I don't do ANY drugs, I've been tested and have been told I'm a rational, responsive, mentally healthy human being so what's up with this?! This isn't April 1st. I'm not a complete blithering idiot yet so what's the catch with Maher and that ultra liberal school kid Hog brat thing?

Nah, I read it but still don't want to believe it. It has to be a trap, a set up. I've watched Maher a time or two in the past and couldn't stomach his show from start to end each time I watched it so, something's up.

Liberals don't bash liberals over their treatment of conservatives. Liberals praise liberals for that! Although it can be argued Ingraham's not altogether conservative. Maybe that's the catch... she's not wholly a liberal and she's not wholly a conservative so Hog and his handlers believe she's fair bait. Either way, diaper boy Hogg ain't going to like Bill Maher anymore... Boycott Maher next, eh Hog.

Who's Behind The Invading Horde From South and Central America?

Guess! I'm pretty sure you won't be surprised by the real answer. Here's a hint. He's allegedly a "former" Hungarian Jew who turned against his fellow jews over time and tosses his money around to those who want it, with provisions of course. His birth family was forced to hide their identity and pass themselves off as Christians in order to avoid being marched off by the Nazis to the internment camps where many Jewish folks were subsequently slaughtered. At least, that's the history we're told of this fellow. Either way, he was far too young to be a Nazi SS officer during WWII let alone a member of the SS.

One of the fellows allegedly (wink-wink) behind much, if not all of the funding for most things anti-USA that are happening in this country is obviously the one and only George Soros, at least. It's also apparent Soros has some very sharp, very large hooks that accompany the money he and his fellow "money men" have been "handing out" globally for decades and in particular here in the United States. Before we go any further let's address a couple of challenges up front.

In the interest of fairness and accuracy let's agree that George Soros was not the Nazi SS officer during the Second World War that many of us were led to believe he was. He was only 9 yrs. old when the war started and was 14 or 15 yrs. old when it allegedly came to an end. He is wealthy, he claims to be Jewish but he's also one of the global elite who's been identified as one of those mega-rich yahoos who's "all in" for a new "World Order"... or whatever, however you might want to label it.

These "migrants", these "immigrants" are pawns. Nothing more, nothing less. The migrants, the immigrants themselves are being used by their handlers to invade the United States. Like it or not our country is the "mantle trophy" of the world. There is no greater prize to the global elite than to ensure our republic fails, succumbs to socialism at best. Those who are marching to our borders are, for the most part needy, innocent "victims" who have been convinced there's a better life ahead of them when at the end of their march. They're not the object of my angst. They're doing what they think is best for their families, themselves and quite frankly who wouldn't? Unfortunately, they're being used as pawns by the global elite. The global elite's goal is to occupy and subsequently effect change. They can't adequately effect that change if they don't have the overwhelming force to compel it, peacefully or otherwise.

We, the United States of America are that targeted group and we're in a helluva struggle for our very existence, as we know it.

Washington State's New Gun Law?!

• • −
  • 
    
   This new Washington State Gun Law is nothing more than a pre-cursor to wholesale gun seizure/forfeiture weeks, months years, decades down the road. We should have seen this coming from our legislators but hey, they got it in and made it happen.
  Rather than write it again I've simply posted one of my comments I left on the site and below...
  >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
   
  

  "...allows local authorities to confiscate firearms from people believed to pose a threat to themselves or others."

  This is ambiguous as hell. What criteria is used to determine whether a person poses "a threat to themselves or others"? I'm pretty sure the politicos have their definitions laying around somewhere that would address my question but I've yet to see it. I have read several proposed legislation "options" over this past legislative session relating to our politicos providing our law enforcement the authority to confiscate firearms from those of us who have legally acquired them, legally care for them, safely store them and otherwise legally posses and carry them. Judging from what I've read none of those proposed legislative pieces took into account that there's already laws on the books adequately detailing and providing the legal confiscation of any firearm if/when necessary (in this state anyways) in conformance with our second amendment rights. i.e. If a firearm was used in the commission of a crime including crimes against persons or property, threats of personal harm, psychological review and subsequent intervention and more then there's provisions to secure the firearm and hold the firearm until a court order is issued to release the firearm back to the owner or alternatively, a court order is issued to destroy the seized firearm. Let's not get distracted by the "Red Flag" banner. It won't stop there. There's also proposed legislation that would afford our law enforcement to arbitrarily wander out to the neighborhoods, do a "knock and talk" on known gun owners homes and conduct an inspection of the gun owner's premises to ensure the firearms conform to the new "storage" requirements. If not then the suggested remedy would be for the officer(s) to secure those firearms and remove them from the possession of the law abiding gun owner, i.e. CITIZEN. This is absurd, at best. Further there's another tool called a Protection of Abuse order. Personally, I think it has some merit but it also has potential for abuse by the authorities. A "Protection of Abuse" order is a tool used by law enforcement personnel that can be ambiguous and suggests any lower court judge (most any judge for that matter, with some exceptions) can make a decision, issue an order that could proactively be served on a gun owner who's deemed by law enforcement to be a threat to himself/herself and/or others so as to prevent a potential assault on any given citizen. Unfortunately it could also be abused to effectively trump our second amendment rights regardless of what the constitution provides, depending on the intent of the government at the time. Don't tell me judicial overreach doesn't happen... it does. Don't suggest to me double jeopardy is a thing of the past... it isn't. Don't tell me abuse of authority isn't real... it can be and quite frankly it does happen. In the meantime our rights would have been violated, our home's would have been invaded, our property(ies) would have been confiscated in addition to the previous "convictions" and/or charges, whatever they might be. And in the end we've been charged with a myriad of other offenses relating to the alleged "improper" hence illegal possession and security of our firearms. By the time we've paid the big bucks to sue to get our guns back from those who violated our constitutional rights by seizing them we're broke and the guns have either been destroyed or rendered inoperable or retained and farmed out to other agencies via the local "law enforcement transfers" program or otherwise sold at a Law Enforcement auction. Nah, I have a problem with this legislation. I truly don't trust our politicos and I surely don't trust the judges that preside over issues on behalf of the state. Enforce the laws we already have on the books. Don't create new ones just to justify a politico's seat in the local government.

  IMHO of course.

The Red Flag Law, A Gateway To Firearm Confiscation!

The "Red Flag" law! Have you heard of it? Have you read it? Do you know what it entails? Is your state one of those 30 plus states who have either signed on to the law or are seriously thinking about enacting a similar law? 

It's nothing more than a gateway to wholesale gun confiscation.

But, don't let me influence you. Read the article and the comments and do your own research. Educate yourself and make your own decision based on your research results.

In the meantime I captured this response by one of the readers/contributors to the site, Tyrone Jackson. Jackson wrote this in response to another reader's challenge that he misunderstood the Founding Father's true intentions when our Second Amendment was drafted.

Here's the rebuttal Jackson gave to one of the other "guests" on the site. If you go to the link above and drop down to the comments you can view the entire exchange.

 

Tyrone Jackson 

 

Here are a few quotes from our Founding Fathers that clarify their viewpoint regarding our Second Amendment:
(BTW - I find it amusing when people Up Vote their own comments)
.
“The right … of bearing arms… is declared to be inherent in the people.”
Fisher Ames, one of the framers of the 2nd Amendment in the first congress
.
“The great object is that every man be armed … Everyone who is able may have a gun. But have we not learned by experience that, necessary as it is to have arms … it is still far from being the case?”
-Patrick Henry
.
“I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.”
“And what country can preserve its liberties if its rules are not warned from time to time that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.”
-Thomas Jefferson
.
“To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them”
-Richard Henry Lee
.
“The advantage of being armed is an advantage which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation … the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.”
-James Madison
.
“A free people ought … to be armed.”
-George Washington
.
The founders meant the militia to be we, the people. Each of us individually is “the militia.”
So, what is this militia? Try these quotes on that topic:
“The militia are the people at large.”
-Tench Coxe Attny. Gen. of Penn. and Asst. Sec of Treasury under Washington
.
“Who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people.”
-George Mason
.
“The militia is composed of free citizens.”
-Samuel Adams
.
“A militia… are in fact the people themselves.”
-Richard Henry Lee

....Tyrone Jackson silenced his critic with this post. Great information here!

If I Were The Devil

I can't access the comment section of the Conservative Tribune to post my comments there because, well... they use Farcebook and I've been banned from Farcebook twice now. Two different pseudonyms, both banned over the past decade and a half. So, though I have friends send me tidbits from other Facebook sites when they get the urge.

The greatest achievement of the devil thus far is he has convinced the majority he does not exist. 

If I were the devil...

If I were the prince of darkness I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness, and I’d have a third of its real estate and four fifths of its population. But I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree: thee.

So I’d set about however necessary, to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first. I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve, “Do as you please.” To the young I would whisper that the Bible is a myth. I would convince them that man created God, instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is square. And the old I would teach to pray after me, “our father which art in Washington...”

And then I’d get organized: I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies, and vice versa. I’d peddle narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills.

If I were the devil I’d soon have families at war with themselves; churches at war with themselves; and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings, I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames.

If I were the devil I would encourage schools to refine young intellect, but neglect to discipline emotions; just let those run wild, until before you knew it you’d have to have drug-sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.

Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing; I’d have judges promoting pornography. Soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls—and church money.

If I were the devil I’d make the symbol of Easter an egg, and the symbol of Christmas a bottle.
If I were the devil I’d take from those who have, and give to those who want it, until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what’ll you bet I couldn’t get whole states to promote gambling as the way to get rich. 

I would caution against extremes, and hard work, and patriotism, and moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old fashioned—that swinging is more fun. That what you see on TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure.

In other words, if I were the devil I would just keep on doing what he is doing.
