— Ace @iowahawkblog notes that this coffee mug, containing at least one characteristic of a so-defined "assault weapon" (a military-style pistol grip) should be categorized as an assault beverage.
Kind of funny.
I'm trying to build on his joke: Can we do the same thing? Can we take anything we don't like and throw the "assault" designator in front of it and get it banned?
Here's some proposed legislative language:
"An 'assault advocate' shall be defined as a public advocate possessing any two of the following three features:
-- a 'military-style' pistol grip;
-- a cloying and entitled attitude;
-- a rail permitting the attachment of 'tactical' features such as a laser-sight or bayonet;
-- the belief that paying $4.00 for birth control at Wal*Mart is some kind of dealbreaker;
-- a "military-style" triangular stock with interior angles greater than 25 degrees;
and
-- a face that looks like a shoe, and not a nice shoe, but one of those sad shoes you see hanging from telephone wires, the sort of hanging telephone wire shoes where you say, "Boy, there must be a backstory on that, and I don't want to know what it is."
CNN Fails Again: @jaycaruso linked this piece.
Feinstein, who authored the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban that Congress declined to renew 10 years later, displayed weapons that would be banned, such as a Bushmaster automatic rifle, at Thursday's news conference.
It's not automatic. God. They just really do not care to do the most minimal research into a subject area where they want to enact wholesale bans, do they?
If you missed Andy's update this morning on the Mensa Chapter Presidents at the Chicago Tribune, check it out. It's both sad and funny.

Condoms will fall under the measure:
CHECK: 'military-style' pistol grip;
CHECK: a cloying and entitled attitude;
CHECK: a rail permitting the attachment of 'tactical' features such as a laser-sight or bayonet; (ouch! that'll leave a mark)
CHECK: the belief that paying $4.00 for birth control at Wal*Mart is some kind of dealbreaker;
CHECK: a "military-style" triangular stock with interior angles greater than 25 degrees; (assuming ist's big enough)
ALSO: Comes in 'mat-black' finish.

Dude, they know precisely that this weapon is not an automatic.
They don't give a fuck.
They're not after moving YOUR opinion. They already KNOW your opinion.
They're after moving low-information PUBLIC opinion.
They're just lying. Because they know that lying works.
You're just frustrated because they're willing to LIE for their cause and get away with it because they own the presses, the broadcast booths and the high-traffic websites.
Solution: Conservatives have a choice. They can buy the presses, the broadcast booths and the high-traffic websites.
Or they can choose NOT to do that and continue losing to those who own them.

Make fun of them. What about the assault hammers? The assault baseball bat?
And then combine it with the motherfucking knowledge. Tell who you're talking to, did you know that the word "assault weapon" is a lie, because they think you're stupid?? Some huge gun control nut said the public was sick of hearing about the bitching about handguns, so the "movement" needed something new to talk about. They then started talking about "assault weapons" because they look "scary" and the public was too stupid to know the difference between military rifles, and military STYLE rifles.
Mockery and truth. It works every fucking time.

At Feinstein's press conference today to introduce legislation to ban 150 styles of guns, they open the presser with a prayer. They got a Catholic priest up there to offer a prayer against scary guns.
First of all, isn't this the party that booed God at their convention 3 times? Isn't this the party that demonizes christians as bible thumping idiots? Isn't this the party who by in large endorses and demands funding for abortion on demand and free birth control for all?
Pretty sick that they use God and prayer when it serves their overall agenda.

At some point, the pro-2A folks sitting across the interview table from the useful idiot talking heads are going to have to forget about rejecting strawman arguments, correcting terminology, and interjecting facts. It's going to need to morph into Alinsky-style personal derision and ridicule.
The former has half-lifed its usefulness amongst the idiots. The latter appeals to undecideds, couch potatos, and LIVs (BIRM).

Yeah... we really need a venue to change the terms of the debate....
Like Talk about the EMPLOYMENT number, not the UNEMPLOYMENT number...
Remind folks that the Second Amendment says ARMS, not Guns... and an Arm by definition is a Military grade weapon... and the base Military grade weapon today IS the Assault Rifle.
Talk about the Fact that indeed, the Constitution is Not a Suicide pact, because we can AMEND it... but that does not mean the court gets to IGNORE it.
Talk about what a Right is.... ie... it aint a Right if someone else has to PAY for it.
And.... TANSTAAFL.... There Aint No Such Thing as a Free Lunch... Someone, somewhere, has to pay...

Everything is automatic, which means that nothing is special.
I propose the supermatic gun. The entire magazine clip discharges at once with a trigger pull. And its got all sorts of sharp prongs sticking out of it so it looks wicked cool, like a heavy metal band's logo. We can then use that as a shiny thing to distract liberals, like "Look liberals!!!! A supermatic gun! I can wipe out an entire kindergarten in one second with this!" And then the liberals will go "We have to ban the supermatic gun!" and they'll run off to do that and leave us alone.

I urge everyone to stop using the "Red" label to represent conservatives. That was a piece of Media propaganda they stuck on us in the election of 1992. When Reagan was Elected President, the colors of his states were "blue."
The "Red" label needs to be stuck back on the communist Democrats, where it belongs.

He, just today, finally emails back a response.
Lot's of BS about how they know the JEF is acting in bad faith, blah, blah, blah.
Then he says. " It may be necessary to partially shut down the government in order to secure the long-term fiscal well-being of our country, rather than follow the disastrous fiscal path of Greece, Italy, and Spain."
Oh, holy hell! Sure, I believe you.
Like Drew has been saying, I can take a bunch of losers running the GOP, what I can't take is a bunch of losers who promise time after time to fight.

An "Assault Politician" shall be defined as a military-style individual who combines more than two of the following features:
• A military-style "crew cut" coif of less than 6 inches in length.
• A firm "assault grip" used during handshakes.
• If a member of the house of representatives, home district is known as a safe-harbor for violent crime. A district shall be "known as a safe-harbor for crime" if it (a) has more than national average incidence of murders, (b) has more than the national average incidence of sexual assaults, (c) contains any "sanctuary city."
What do you mean I targeted Democrats? Do you support assault politicians?

Note:
Grant Duwe, a criminologist with the Minnesota Department of Corrections who has written a history of mass murders in America, said that while mass shootings rose between the 1960s and the 1990s, they actually dropped in the 2000s. And mass killings actually reached their peak in 1929, according to his data. He estimates that there were 32 in the 1980s, 42 in the 1990s and 26 in the first decade of the century.
Chances of being killed in a mass shooting, he says, are probably no greater than being struck by lightning.

So lets ban 158 different guns!!!

--- They do appear to be high capacity. Clearly an extensive and time consuming inspection is needed to make any conclusive ruling.
Posted by: Buzzsaw90 at January 24, 2013 10:19 AM (SO2Q8)
It's not automatic. God. They just really do no care to do the most basic research into a subject area where they want to enact wholesale bans, do they? -ace-
Why won't you just admit that they DO know and are deliberately misleading?

This is how they have brought us.........here.
How do we go now.....I ask?
What manner will we strive to claim our country BACK from this distain?
Should we ever trust a PACiderm.....again.......
Or, is there a better beast to lay our mantle, to rid our country of this ruling
chattle that lives for our destruction....I ask,
because I still love this country.

"It's not automatic. God. They just really do not care to do the most minimal research into a subject area where they want to enact wholesale bans, do they?"
They do this on purpose. It's a lie that they keep repeating and repeating until eventually, everyone "knows" it's the truth. The repubs need a PR campaign to stop this sort of thing, but apparently are too simple-minded to hire someone. Meantime, in 30 days, everyone will "know" the Bushmaster is an automatic weapon and must be banned.
This is how the left works, day in and day out. They create the lie, they create the mis-truth, and then it goes. How about the word "assault rifle"? There are none in the civilian world, but everyone "knows" that they exist - just look at the AK-47 and the AR-15! Good gosh, the AR-15 chambered in 22LR is more dangerous than a GLOCK! OMG! It's a GLOCK!!
If we don't stop them now, it's not going to be possible to stop them later. When you see crap like this, call them out. And DO NOT let any conservative use those phrases that the left repeats!! There ARE NO ASSAULT RIFLES in the civilian world!!
