The Very Shortest Unit of Time...

It used to be that the shortest unit of measurable time was a "quark."  

That's what the physicists call the itty bitty, little infinitesimally-small spark of sunlight-bright generated by the mile-long Super Collider Reactor (look it up).  That's when two atoms of something-or-other are somehow made to crash into each other at the speed of light, and then to disappear.  In a burst of energy!  Or something 

While we have hundreds of thousands of homeless people living on the streets of our Big Blue Cities.  

And the Second Smallest previously was the time it took for the cab driver behind you to honk his horn when the light changed at a Times Square stoplight.  That was DAMN quick!

But now?  It's the time it takes for cranky old Joe O'Biden to haul his bony butt in front of the nearest microphone and spew a call for even more gun control.  More.  MORE!  Nothing but "more" will do!  When the Constitution to which he swore allegiance demands he "shall not infringe" the 2nd Amendment.  Which means tinker with it.  And he endeavors to infringe upon it to an even greater degree on a daily basis.    

Remember when he told us that the preferred way to scare off an intruder was to go the to the window and shoot your shotgun off into the air?  Which is BTW illegal!  In every city and every municipality and every state in our Nation?

He should be ashamed, if he had any shame...    

He did it again this week after a crazed Virginia Wal-Mart manager chose to kill a bunch of his fellow workers.  With a pistol.  I'll bet O'Biden would have given several $Billion Dollars of our tax money if the killer had used an AR-15!  But hey, made no never mind to our "Mumbler-in-Chief."  While surrounded by armed Secret Service agents, he said that semi-automatic weapons have no place in our society.  Apparently not knowing that fully 73% of all new firearms offered for sale in 'Murica are of the semi-automatic variety.  And so is your old granddad's shotgun.  

I know my fellow Patriots know all of this, but for those that don't, who might choose to read this, here's a few choice tidbits you should inculcate:

     -  According the FBI, there are more than 15,000,000 AR-15's in circulation.  They have been deemed America's Most Popular Sporting Rifle, as they are light, modular, inexpensive, and perfect for hunting, target shooting and self-defense.  But O'Biden's sycophants must not have told him the truth about them.  Or perhaps he just doesn't care about the truth...

     -  According to that same FBI, more than 100,000,000 Americans own more than 455,000,000 firearms.  Of all types and description.  And they didn't shoot anyone yesterday...  

     -  And how about this: the National Rifle Association (NRA) is America's oldest and largest 501(c)(3) corporation, having just celebrated its 252nd birthday!  More than 5,500,000 of your fellow Americans, more than 5% of our population, are Dues Paying Members of the NRA (I no longer pay dues, I should mention, as I've been a Life Member since 1965).  And these Members vote.  And they influence another 15,000,000 wives and husbands and girlfriends and boyfriends and aunts and uncles and cousins.  So there.

     -  Oh, and didja' know that since 2020 more than 60% of all new firearms sold have been purchased by women?  And didja' know that more than 55% of new gun buyers have been Black?  Didja?  Huh?  Once again, all FBI stats.  Presumably from the part of that flawed Agency whose statistics we can still believe. 

The non-political part... 

     -  And here's another little factoid.  So far as my research has turned up, there's never been a Member of the NRA who's been convicted of a firearm felony.  Never!.  Not in the past 252 years.  Try that one on,  O'Biden!  And you too, Legacy Media!  And all the gun-haters everywhere!

     -  According to that same FBI, Americans use a legal firearm to stop a crime in progress more than 1,500,000 times a year!  That's One and One-Half Million!  That's a bunch.  And unfortunately, as you know, our so-called "MainStreamMedia," which has proven to be nothing but the Media Arm of the Democrat National Committee, chooses not to report them.  Almost none of them.  Only the most newsworthy break through the partisan efforts to quell them.  But we already knew that, don't we?  Didn't we?  

     -  Try this one on.  11% of the good Citizens of Florida are now licensed to carry concealed firearms.  That's means more than 2,000,000 of Florida's folks are walking around with a firearm in their pocket today.  Don't you think that might give the Bad Guys a bit of pause before they choose to commit a crime in the Sunshine State?  Oh yeah, Gov. Ron DeSantis' veto-proof new Legislature in Florida will be contemplating adopting Constitutional Carry as its first order of business in the new session starting in January.

And in closing, as I prepare to exit the Digital Door, I leave you with this:  O'Biden's choice to politicize shootings by blaming the tool instead of the user, shall remain until superseded as The Example we shall henceforth use for...
