Politically Correct Genocide

You may or not have seen the video recently of Julius Malema President of the Economic Freedom Fighters, a political party in South Africa with his catchy little ditty. Rita Panahi of SKY News, out of Australia recently did an excellent, and short, report on this. Since her accent is way cooler than mine, listen to this short segment from Rita.

In the clip, an interviewer asks Malema if he can understand why people on Twitter are going nuts about him calling for genocide of white farmers. Malema responds “Cry babies”. Oh.

This is not a new topic, I’ve written about it a couple of times before.

RECYCLING might want to scroll down and watch the 20 minute interview with Lauren Southern of Ian Cameron, a gun rights activist in South Africa. South Africa does indeed have gun control and therefore has become the garden of eden the gun grabbers always assure us a gun free places will become. If only all the citizens are disarmed and defenseless.

MOVE ALONG, NOTHING TO SEE HERE, NOPE, NO GENOCIDE WHATSOEVER

There are a couple of good Tucker Carlson clips as he interviews a couple of South Africans talking about what is going on. And the first part is talking about Zimbabwe and what happened to their country after they took all the land from the white farmers. Here’s a hint, economy collapsed and famine. That was such a winning strategy that Julius Malema has decided to repeat it..

So what’s changed that I’m writing again? Well, in a way, not much and in a way a lot. As Rita pointed out the response to the video of Malema and a stadium FULL of people chanting “Kill the Boer, shoot white farmer” from the bat guano crazy left has been to DEFEND the calls for genocide. Now the NY Slimes has a long proud history of downplaying genocide.

How the NYT Missed the Story of the Holocaust While It Was Happening

….

And yet, at the end of the war and for decades afterward, Americans claimed they did not know about the Holocaust as it was happening. How was it possible for so much information to be available in the mass media and yet simultaneously for the public to be ignorant?

The reason is that the American media in general and the New York Times in particular never treated the Holocaust as an important news story. From the start of the war in Europe to its end nearly six years later, the story of the Holocaust made the Times front page only 26 times out of 24,000 front-page stories, and most of those stories referred to the victims as “refugees” or “persecuted minorities.” In only six of those stories were Jews identified on page one as the primary victims.

Nor did the story lead the paper, appearing in the right-hand column reserved for the day’s most important news – not even when the concentration camps were liberated at the end of the war. In addition, the Times intermittently and timidly editorialized about the extermination of the Jews, and the paper rarely highlighted it in either the Week in Review or the magazine section.

.

So it should be no great shock the Slimes is again downplaying a genocide. And just as Germany would have said there was no genocide going on, the genocidal government of South Africa denies it as well. Except it is.

Farm murders are happening

In the past did the left have enough soul, morals and ethics they would have condemned genocide? I think perhaps they would have, even if you had to go a ways back to find that time. But not now, now their response is we misunderstood the song. No, no, there’s not much misunderstanding Kill the Boer, Kill the farmer. That’s pretty self explanatory and since that’s exactly what’s happening I’d say both the white farmers and the murderous regime are taking him at his word. Someone recently posted to Twitter/X that this is how a farmer is South Africa has a BBQ. This makes me sooo sad, and I don’t even eat meat. But just a simple pleasure like this is fraught with peril.

Necessary elements of a BBQ for a South African farmer

I recently posted something to an Israeli political party group I belong to expressing sympathy for the white South Africans. I understand very well the love of your land, and many of those farmers are on land that’s been farmed by their family for a few hundred years. How can they sell their land and get out? Who would buy it? I guess a black would be entitled to just take it if it was for sale, and what white in their right mind would buy it, no matter how good the land is? How do they get money to get their families out to start over somewhere better? Its possibly harder than living in Shomron or Judea. I got a very wise response. Since I didn’t ask permission to quote, I’ll give you the gist; It’s like the Jews of Europe in the 1930s. Those who could get out left everything but their lives behind. Those who stayed lost everything including their lives. He said he doubted there are any sympathetic safe harbors for the whites of South Africa. He advised them to learn Spanish and try to make it to Mexico. He was joking about that last bit, I think. Upon further reflection, he might be onto something…

Another thing that is different is we are heading for a famine, remember Michael Yon’s PanFaWar? Famine follows pandemic and is followed by war. This will be exacerbated by the greens trying to ruin agriculture, as in the Netherlands right now they are seizing farm land to turn it into housing for the poor immigrants. Not sure what the immigrants, or the Dutch either for that matter are going to eat. Zimbabwe no longer has food to export. India is limiting rice exports, and in America we are injecting our food animals with experimental substances. So. Seems like a stupid idea to me, but ideologues are seldom the brightest crayon in the box. Not sure where the South Africans think they’re going to get their food, and I truly hope no country will give them aid, but we know that’s not going to happen.

Which brings me to my next point. The Biden crime syndicate, Mayorkas (yeah, I don’t even care if I spelled it right or not) and border czar Harris have imported tons of them. How many? Who knows. But we now have tons of illegal invaders who come from a country where it’s government policy you can kill the white farmer, and steal his land, because it’s no longer stealing.

So, if you want to do a politically correct genocide, this seems to be the ticket in South Africa now, and the world’s media will defend you. That’s why after covid all their credibility should be gone. But it’s not. #FakeNews

And since tonight seems to be Twitter/X night, I’ll close with this poignant warning from a South African. In case the message doesn’t come through with the video clip I’m trying to share….

In 2018 #SouthAfrica confiscated 300,000 guns from White Farmers after Constitutional Court ruled owners to relinquish weapons.

A cross for every White Farmer killed in South Africa between 2018-2022.

NEVER GIVE UP YOUR GUNS. EVER‼️

Nasty, Brutish, and Short

-shakes head- All the calls for “gun control” that will magically stop all mass shootings miss the mark. Let me tell you a secret: Addressing the problem with victim-disarming gun control laws won’t hack it.

Background checks, however “enhanced” won’t do it, because looking at past activities doesn’t predict with certainty what someone might do in the future, under changing conditions.

Same with ex parte “red flag” confiscations.

“Assault weapon” bans? Most mass shootings are committed with handguns.

Age limits? What; you’re going to raise age limits to 70? 80?

Licensing? Registration? See above, re:background checks.

Buybacks? That never works; just ask New Zealand, with its 6.45% compliance rate. Buybacks don’t even touch the probable five million plus stolen guns in the wild.

There is only one gun control act that would possibly prevent mass shootings: Total confiscation of all firearms. Not just civilian arms, but everything; police and military (ask Los Zetas where they really got their “military-grade” weaponry; it wasn’t US gun stores). Then you’d have to ban pipes, aluminum cans, iron, copper, nails, sugar, stump remover, fertilizer, propane, butane, lighter fluid, gasoline, charcoal briquets, and any and all chemical precursors to homemade propellant. You’ll shut down all industry and commercial agriculture in America. The country, and much of the world, will starve.

Ever hear of linacs and railguns? There goes electricity, no matter how “greenly” it’s generated. Since you already eliminated plumbing, cities are now uninhabitable.

To enforce all that, you’ll need to raid every structure and property in the nation, going over every inch with metal detectors, ground penetrating radar, chemical sniffers, and Mark I Eyeballs.

Then you’ll need watchmen-watchers to keep an eye on the confiscation teams, because those are just people, too.

And someone to watch them.

You’ll need to recruit every man, woman, and child in the country as snitches, so that someone is always watching everyone who might be creatively assembling concrete, wire, flour, piss, flint, and steel to build an improvised cannon. (Crappy, but it would work.)

You’ll need to ban knowledge of history, mathematics, chemistry, engineering, lest someone apply that to construct a firearm. So much for maintaining infrastructure, let alone creating more.

Literacy will have to go, to be sure someone doesn’t wrong-ideas from an old book that missed being 451’d.

This is the 21st century; the firearms cat is out of the bag. If you want to use gun control to stop shootings, you need to reduce the nation to a sparsely populated Stone Age society.

Have fun with that. Or maybe you’d like to look at things that might really help.

Upping the ante: Providing the blood for the gun control dancers

Shortly after the Parkland school shooting, a Georgia teacher with a long history of advocating gun control — and during the beginnings of the latest debate on allowing teachers to be armed — took a gun to school and fired it. Just to show teachers shouldn’t be trusted with guns.

A little later, another sorry SOB, this one in Florida, bought an illegal sawed-off shotgun in an online sale without background check, and took it to an Ocala school and fired it. He claimed he wasn’t trying to actually shoot anyone. Purely by coincidence, I’m sure, he chose the anniversary of the Columbine shooting, which was being observed at schools as means of calling for more gun control.

Two gun controllers performing school shootings to show why gun control is needed.

Sadly, it appears the victim-disarming people controllers have upped the ante. This report comes from CNN, so the accuracy isn’t guaranteed. They claim to have found some disturbing material on the Facebook page of the Thousand Oaks bar chumbucket. It appears that about the time he began his killing spree, he posted this:

“I hope people call me insane… (laughing emojis).. wouldn’t that just be a big ball of irony? Yeah.. I’m insane, but the only thing you people do after these shootings is ‘hopes and prayers’.. or ‘keep you in my thoughts’… every time… and wonder why these keep happening…”

Perhaps you have your own interpretation of that, but I take it to mean that he was ridiculing “hopes and prayers” and the lack of more gun control laws.

That he did this to rationalize more violations of rights.

And just to make sure there was plenty of graphic imagery for the screeching harridans of Mom Demand Atrocity et al, he provided it. He took pictures and posted them as he killed people.

If they can’t control you, the victim-disarming gun controllers will kill you.

TMZ calls it a revenge shooting. I call it terrorism: killing innocents to drive political change; aided and abetted by every pro-gun control advocate out there.

That’s Debatable

I often agree with Scott Adams. This time, I don’t… quite.

The Fake Gun Control Debate
If you see a gun debate in which both sides claim their preferred laws would save lives, you’re watching a fake debate. A real debate would sound more like this:

Honest Pro-gun argument: “I realize the right to own guns will result in the death of thousands of innocent people. But owning a gun lowers the risk for my family, in my opinion, because of my specific situation, and so I favor gun rights.”

or…

Honest Anti-gun argument: “I realize that some forms of gun control could result in the deaths of people who would otherwise be able to defend themselves, but I’m okay with that because my family’s risk would be lower if there were fewer guns in circulation.”

Well… No. Let’s take the “Honest Pro-gun argument.”

The right to own guns will result in the deaths of thousands? Make that may.

And who are those thousands? Right off the top, historically, nearly two-thirds of them are people who choose to die. My guns have nothing to do with people who want to kill themselves. Comparisons of states with varying degrees of gun control (not mention other countries like Japan) suggest those who want to die, will die. By other means if guns aren’t available.

And my gun isn’t available to them, so what do my rights have to do with it anyway?

Then there are the accidental firearms-related deaths. In 2015 (last CDC WISQARS data available), that was 489. Out of a population of 320+ million. And dropping; in 1999, with a smaller US population, we had 824 accidental firearms-related deaths.

Compared to 3,602 accidental drownings in 2015. Is anyone calling for commonsense pool control?

Guess what; no one has accidentally killed themselves, or anyone else with my gun. So again, what do my rights have to do with it anyway?

In 2016 (the last FBI UCR availbable), that leaves 11,004 murders. Presumabbly, this is what concerns people. It is concerning. And dropping; in 1993, there were 17,075 homicides, out of a much smaller population. Murder is a problem we’re already solving.

Funny things about those murderers: if we assume they were all lawful gun owners, they’d be 0.0085 to 0.0186% of all gun owners; a rather small fragment of a miniscule fraction of the people gun controllers want to regulate. Seems like a tighter focus would be more effective.

Why napalm your backyard to get rid of mosquitos?

But most murderers are prior felons, who can’t lawfully possess firearms. So this is more like napalming your backyard to get your the mosquitos in the swamp outside of town.

Worse yet, some 80-88% of firearms used in murders are stolen (so they aren’t owned by the killers). Now you’re fire-bombing your yard for South American mosquitos.

But the nasty thing we usually aren’t allowed to address is the demographics of the majority of murder victims. Just this once, I’ll be politically correct and not say it. But I will note that Chicago and Los Angeles (among other high crime cities) have programs to identify potential victims… based on their involvement in illegal activities or relationships with those who are so involved. And perpetrator and victim are pretty localized geographically, too.

And that is why the victim disarming gun controllers live for Sandy Hook and Parkland incidents, waiting patiently for those rare, isolated incidents. Suddenly they get to cry over innocent victims and demand those who didn’t do it be punished; because you never know when the innocent might become guilty.

And on to the “Honest Anti-gun argument”:

“I realize that some forms of gun control could result in the deaths of people who would otherwise be able to defend themselves, but I’m okay with that because my family’s risk would be lower if there were fewer guns in circulation.”

Only could, when rights will?

Even the Anti-gun Violence Policy Center admits that there are 338,700 defensive firearms uses in 2007-2011, 11,690/year. Yes, the gun controllers say that (pro-RKBA numbers go as high as 2.5 million per year).

So how many of those 338,700 “could” die if disarmed?

Now here my gun has been involved. I’ve defended myself (nonlethally, thank G-d) on three occasions, and another person once.

My brother was beaten to death in a victim disarmament paradise in California.

Could die?

“…but I’m okay with that because my family’s risk would be lower if there were fewer guns in circulation.”

What does my gun have to do with your family’s risk? Unless you’re planning to do something to me that would force me to defend myself…

But screw this “what if could.” We have gun control.

NFA ’34
GCA ’68
FOPA ’86
GFSA ’90
Brady Bill ’93
AWB ’94
Laughtenberg ’96

That’s just federal. At the state and local levels, we’ve got more bans, prohibitive licensing, unconstitutional ERPOs, more gun-free zones, age limits, universal background checks, total registration, moronic microstamping requirements, “smart” gun requirements…

We’ve been letting gun controller run their little experiment for eight decades (Not to mention gun control laws going back to Colonial period ensuring blacks were disarmed. Did I mention the anti-immigrant Sullivan Act?). When is it supposed to start working, or when will they accept that it is stupid?

We have gun control, and the victim disarmers insisting doing the same thing over and over, and more of it. Crazy, huh?

And honest gun control debate would start with “Since it doesn’t work, why should we continue it?”

Complicity?

Complicity of current gun laws makes people guilty of slaughter
Are you complicit?

Re: the mindless slaughter of men, women and children in a church in Texas, at a hotel in Las Vegas and at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Ct. plus many others too numerous to mention.

You are complicit if you are an elected official voting to block adequate gun control laws! You have the blood of innocent individuals on your hands.

I should like to note that, by his peculiar standard of law, Mr. Blank is complicit in the murder of my brother who was disarmed by the sort of retroactive — ex post facto — gun control he likes.

By his standard, Blank is complicit in the murder of Carol Bowne, killed while waiting for her lawfully purchased defensive tool; mandatory waiting period gun control.

By his standard, Blank is complicit in the murders of 23 people in Luby’s Diner, where gun control had disarmed Dr. Suzanna Gratia.

Considering that Sandy Hook Elementary School was a “gun-free zone” by federal gun control, with lawfully possessed defensive arms banned, by his standard, Blank is complicit in those murders as well.

I’m sure guilt-stricken Blank will be contacting his representatives immediately to call for an end to victim disarmament.
