  1. “Why the Gun is Civilization:
    – By Marko Kloos

    Human beings only have two ways to deal with one another: reason and force. If you want me to do something for you, you have a choice of either convincing me via argument, or force me to do your bidding under threat of force. Every human interaction falls into one of those two categories, without exception. Reason or force, that’s it.

    In a truly moral and civilized society, people exclusively interact through persuasion. Force has no place as a valid method of social interaction, and the only thing that removes force from the menu is the personal firearm, as paradoxical as it may sound to some.

    When I carry a gun, you cannot deal with me by force. You have to use reason and try to persuade me, because I have a way to negate your threat or employment of force. The gun is the only personal weapon that puts a 100-pound woman on equal footing with a 220-pound mugger, a 75-year old retiree on equal footing with a 19-year old gangbanger, and a single gay guy on equal footing with a carload of drunk guys with baseball bats. The gun removes the disparity in physical strength, size, or numbers between a potential attacker and a defender.

    There are plenty of people who consider the gun as the source of bad force equations. These are the people who think that we’d be more civilized if all guns were removed from society, because a firearm makes it easier for a mugger to do his job. That, of course, is only true if the mugger’s potential victims are mostly disarmed either by choice or by legislative fiat – it has no validity when most of a mugger’s potential marks are armed. People who argue for the banning of arms ask for automatic rule by the young, the strong, and the many, and that’s the exact opposite of a civilized society. A mugger, even an armed one, can only make a successful living in a society where the state has granted him a force monopoly.”

    1. Samuel Colt.
      Peacemaker and humanitarian.
      That article is worthy of a post all of its own.
      For the repeating firearm,broke the power of the pack.
      Numbers no longer held such power,when the individual could shoot the instigators.
      And using lethal force works,for the penalty for being unpersuasive is real..
      Our individual rights and freedoms,as protected by the USA,can only exist with this deterrent.
      One may observe the effect in real time,The Democrats Mob can only Burn Loot and Murder within the protected regions of Liberal enclaves,where the police protect them and the politicians disarm their victims..
      The well armed suburbanites wait with glee,for Antifa to escape their protectors..

      Hence the concept of stripping all government minions of the right to carry,only tax paying citizens shall have that right,removing unreasoning force from the governments playbook..

      Oopes,that would leave them nothing..
      As they are too stupid and evil to convince any sane citizen to comply.
      Persuasive argument and Government Minion?
      Just does not compute,for their only tool of persuasion is the threat of unreasoning violence..

      Good Enough for Government.
      Translates to “Silence.I kill you”.

      Tarra Linch’s major crime is being more reasonable and persuasive than any bureaucrat or elected parasite knows how.

  2. Two wonderful videos from Ukraine.
    Corrupt cops were extorting motorists, they complained to local army, here is the result, the guy in Lada is a victim who identifies the cops, the rest is obvious:

      1. I was wondering who would be the first parrot to zero in on this angle.

        Anyway these two videos are among many others showing Ukrainians how have went after those who try to profit from misery of people. They really have no patience for banditry and corruption anymore. Godspeed.

    1. First, it wasn’t my fat general story, it was all over the news.
      Second, I’ll believe it was a fake when more than guy on twitter says so.
      Third, you had no insight, at the time. You just enjoy claiming that everything that puts Siberian Mongols in bad light is a fake. By chance you may turn out correct on this one. No biggie.

      So if it was a fake, ok, I’ll cheerfully admit I was deceived. For now I am filling it as unclear. We’ll see.

        1. Must fell good to declare yourself a part of “we” again?
          You belong now, yay!

        1. You’re reposting the exact same story by the same source. So far every claim of fake leads to the same few Twitter posts.

  3. L – Canada’s most famous public intellectual lays out a most complicated and multi-faceted
    problem, proposing a process for finding political and diplomatic solutions. Something no
    Western political leaders seem capable of: having a clue about the effects of their policies or
    some are acting out of deliberate pathological nihilism.

    Jordan Peterson is now working with Daily Wire in the U.S.of A. in preparation to avoid the soon to be totalitarian censorship of the Trudeau regime’s C-11. Canadians will soon require powerful VPN access to avoid most internet searches resulting in our screens having the sneering face of the petulant tyrant, himself, shouting “ACESS DENIED”. Followed by a lowered
    Social Credit Score and house arrest.

    1. Given that Siberian Mongols have been repeatedly, purposefully targeting civilian buildings for the sake of targeting civilian buildings (see Kharkiv for most recent examples) this theory can be safely flushed down the toilet (if you don’t know what indoor plumbing is, you may be a russian, look it up).

      1. Colon

        Your Continued support for the Ukro NAZI’s clearly demonstrates your Abject ignorance and love of Main Stream Media…lapping up their proffered Bullshit on a daily basis.

        Why you’ve not gone over there yourself remains a mystery.??

        1. One day when you realize that it really was about people fighting to save their families, their homes and their way of life from a Siberian horde you will feel really bad. When you realize that everything else was secondary, that it was the moral duty of civilized world to help them, and when you realize that russians are every bit as vile as you were told they were, you feel like shit about yourself. For you’re honest, just blinded.

          Every news I post, first comes from independent sources, typically a short on readit, a clip by Enforcer etc, I then find a longer article in MSM that talks about it. To me MSM are secondary sources that tend to have the best packaging and presentation, hence why I post them instead of a grainy video and my interpretation what’s on it.

          Why am I not in Ukraine? I suspect for the same reason you haven’t joined the Wagner group?

          BTW if you’re so concerned about NAZIs you may want to check the Sparta battalion. Because you’re so genuinely concerned about that and not just using it as an excuse to support Pootin, … because you don’t like globalists and MSM. Oh an openly NAZI unit fighting for Pootin from day one is not interesting? How about openly Jihadi units? Not interesting either? Funny, I thought these mattered to you. But a bunch of yahoos with swastika tattoos, is casus beli, just because MSM said it isn’t?

  4. When the bought and paid for media gets it’s script from Trudeau’s office, they could at least change the wording a bit from website to website. Trudeau is mobbed by admirers.

    1. Massive child malnutrition and starvation in the third world is no reason for them to risk the three pieces of silver that they get to lie for Trudeau’s corrupt Liberals.
      The corrupt media frauds and filth made a choice between truth and greed.
      The truth is that corrupt Canadian journalists are providing cover for a modern Holodomor.

      History books will be written on the media’s role in the starvation.
      Trudeau’s Great Leap Forward.

        1. Eliminate “monkey” and “survivor” from your comment and it might be more accurate. He is the blight that has devastated this nation.

      1. Has someone told him that the Village People might not be interested in him?

  5. So the Calgary City Council:

    Communists led by the (illegitimate) supposed MAYOR, Jody Gondek have voted in Favour of spending some 87 BILLION of City Taxpayer monies on her previously announced Climate Change “Emergency”

    That Filthy SKANK stole the Election – that’s a given IMO. (Dominion Voting machines used first time ever in Calgary Civic Election..??). Just Another TRUDEAU – SOROS appointee.

    One wonders when Calgarians will, if ever wake the F up..??
    I’m Not holding my breath…

    1. Steakman:

      Edmonton isn’t much better. Why in the world would people want to elect a failed Prinz Dummkopf hack as mayor? He’s proven himself to be just as inept in that job as he was while in Ottawa.

      Billl Hawrelak, please come back! All is forgiven!

      1. BA…..far far too many Alberta imbeciles glued to their Bell/Shaw programming with CBC, CTV & Global….all still believing the UCP is their road to salvation of Conservatism.

        Not in any way shape or form voting for that gang of abject Fascists…ALL of whom seemingly 100% supported that Fat Little bloviating mouthpiece Kenney…for that past 3 yrs…yea, not happening.

        INDEPENDANCE is the only way for the us and Sask.

        1. As I mentioned before on SDA, I voted for Kenney thinking he was like Moses leading us to the promised land, but soon became disenchanted with him.

          Right after the 2019 federal election, I called his office and left a message, suggesting that he should start drawing up terms by which Alberta would withdraw from Confederation. The response was zippo, nichts, rien and, unfortunately, that hasn’t changed.

  6. We are rapidly approaching the point (if we haven’t already arrived) where carrying a concealed firearm is becoming just common sense, regardless of what the law says. I suspect that many are doing just that, and I don’t mean criminals. As the saying goes: “It is better to be judged by 12, than carried by 6.”
    And if it comes to that- choose a jury of your peers, rather than take your chances with Liberal judges.

    1. Imagine the possibilities. Endless celebrations of one perverted thing or another. Every day will be a holiday. (“On the first day of Pride Month, I was LGBT…..”) Every anniversary, every historical event with have some poofy connection or context.

  7. Well, Mandela was a terrorist too. The reason he stayed in jail for so long is that he refused to renounce violence. Google “Mandela” and “terrorist” and you will wonder why that seemingly sweet old man has been canonized by the media.

    1. Nonononono! He was a freedom fighter! Uh-huh….. and his wife at the time was a real charmer, wasn’t she? Winnie just loooooved having her enemies necklaced.

      Yup, a nice peace-loving couple, they were.

      Oh, he wasn’t just canonized by the media. More than 40 years ago, he was portrayed as a candidate for sainthood by certain elements inside the church.

    1. Good lead. I unfortunately have got to the point where I no longer expect wrong doers to be punished. Very sad.

    2. Gateway Pundit reports.
      An FBI Confidential Human Source INFILTRATED Proud Boys, Ran FBI Operation on J-6, Reported They Were INNOCENT!
      https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/07/lied-proof-highly-sensitive-doj-jan-6-documents-leaked-gateway-pundit-fbi-confidential-human-source-infiltrated-proud-boys-ran-fbi-operation-j-6-reported/

      The informant told his handlers at the FBI that the Kansas City Proud Boy Group he was infiltrating and accompanied to the Capitol on January 6th “were not involved in, nor did they inspire the breaking of the barriers at the Capitol building. CHS describe the scene as the crowd doing it as a “herd mentality,” and that it was not organized. The crowd was shouting “stop the vote,” as they made their way to the Capitol building…

      Not only that, but the informant also testifies to the FBI that Proud Boys planned to come to Washington DC to risk their own safety to protect average Trump Supporters from Antifa attacks so MAGA folk could enjoy the day and “get back to their hotels safely”.

    1. That is also very interesting. I saw it on GoV. Excellent research and analysis.

  8. Does Postmodernism Impede Learning? An opinion piece by Jesse Hartman

    An excerpt: I remember hearing the slogan knowledge is power as a kid, and assumed that it meant that the more we know about the world, the more capable we can be in navigating its challenges. In order to survive, knowing stuff is clearly helpful. Postmodernism, on the other hand, teaches that those in power wield socially-constructed knowledge as a means of subjugation. If claiming to know something marks you as an oppressor, then seeking knowledge is the act of an oppressor in training. To say, “I know” is to say, “I win”—and more importantly, “You lose.”

    1. Ingrates. The elites work so hard to make sure that the proles have a miserable life, but do you think the peasants are thankful for that?

  9. Brampton is celebrating diversity:

    “Police said the first victim suffered life-altering injuries, while the second was treated for his injuries at a local hospital and released.

    On April 24, Peel police announced the arrest of Gurkirat Singh, a 25-year-old man from Brampton.

    Then, on Sunday, police arrested 23-year-old Manpreet Singh, also from Brampton. He has been charged with attempted murder, assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm, police said.”
