The shooting in Orlando is a confluence of several areas of government incompetence: failure in allowing his crazy family in the country, failure in monitoring his various threats and strange behavior, failure to detect his ISIS sympathies in two FBI interviews, failure to consider the risks of self-radicalized terrorists, failure of the police to engage and neutralize him during Orlando shooting, and the latest, the failure to keep an eye on his co-conspirator wife, who apparently has escaped!
So instead of acknowledging those numerous failures of execution and imagination, failures that show the general inability of government founded on liberal principles to protect us, instead Obama and the Democrats have gone on a full-scale war of hatred against Middle America, demonizing Christians and gun-owners.
The Democrats demand comprehensive Assault Weapon bans and the unconstitutional addition of restrictions on people on an unregulated watch list. They’re now sitting in Congress to show their self-righteousness and somehow connect with the protests of the 60s, which they find so inspiring. They’re fine with the use of unregulated watch lists, because they do not take seriously the constitutional right to bear arms. And they like gun bans not because they think they’ll stop crime–no one really thinks they will, unless a totalitarian apparatus of mass confiscation is employed–but because its shows their tribal hatred of the Other, in this case white, Christian, red-state America.
We are truly living in a time of Anarcho-Tyranny, where the government both allows large amounts of disorder and fails in its basic functions, such as preventing crime and securing the border, while harassing and regulating the lives of ordinary, law-abiding people, who it aims to control and whose resistance it fears.

Great essay. On point.
I agree.
The fact that so many of these losers can be elected to Congress proves that democracy is not the answer. The founders knew this fact. Investigate exactly who was allowed to vote in 1789. The author of this blog is dangerous dot com has it right
Britain voted for a tea party.
Will (((they))) honor the vote without requiring the exchange of metal projectiles?
We’ll see.
I’m just surprised that the British would be the first to get this close to exiting the EU. I always thought the Greeks would have been the first to bail and join the BRICS with Russian security guarantees against Turkey.

Looks like (((they))) are going to force a re-vote, just as with the (((bank))) bailout in Nov. 2008. As I predicted.
We are subjects and the only question is whether there will be a 1776 style revolution.
