Folks, I agree with Sparky that there is too much violence, especially in property crimes.

Saying “No”, barring entry into a house, or using non-firearm violence is resisting criminals, right?

It is  only a matter of degrees of violence between saying “no” and shooting a criminal, I think it is incumbent on those who do not want to resist criminals to do their part to reduce violence.

So I propose that we implement a new law — named in honor of MikeB30200; The Spineless Homeowner Eliminating Extraneous Physicality (S.H.E.E.P.) Act

if his intentions were not to rape and murder but just to steal the microwave and slip back out the door?

The provisions are designed to reduce violence, damage to property, risk to the criminal thugs and allow the spineless homeowners who want to enable criminals to live their principles.

It is here by decreed that those who believe “it’s not worth anyone getting hurt over property” should:

1. Place a large (minimum 3′ x 4′) sign on their property expressing their beliefs.
   Such phrases as “Gun Free Environment” or “It’s not worth dying over property” or “Just give them what they want”
   A.) A pictograph of a Sheep can be used in place of text.
   B.) For those who are unwilling to let criminals run rampant, alternate signage can (but is not required) displayed. Recommended wording “Don’t, Own Gun” or a pictograph of a DOG can be used.
2. Identify and properly mark at least one (1) entry way that will remain unlocked at all times.
   Entry way must be large enough that most property can be easily transported through it.
   A.) A Fine of not less then $1,000 will be accessed if there is not at least one (1) unlocked entry way available.
3. Please in an easily accessible location an up to date inventory of the contents of your domicile.
   Inventory must be updated within 24 to 48 hours of change — a $500 fine if not updated.
   A.) Pictures are not required by recommended
   B.) Sizes and condition on all property is required to be included on the inventory
   
4. List days of the week and the times you’ll be available to assist criminals carrying large or heavy items out of your house. (Can’t have the criminals pulling a muscle stealing your stuff).
   A.) A fine of not less than $500 will be accessed if the criminal complains you failed to help in the theft of your property.
5. All jewelry shall be required to be prominently displayed with values and sizes noted.
   A.) A fine of not less then $1,000 shall be accessed if a piece of jewelry is found to be an imitation or of lesser value then noted.
   (Side note — there will be a grace period of 90 days on this provision, for those males who need to replace fake jewelry or come clean to their significant others.
6. No resistance is to be given regardless of the demands of the criminal unless said demands are of a lethal nature.
   A.) A fine of  not less then $50,000 or a sentence of 36 months in jail will be accessed for any participate S.H.E.E.P. who resists any demands of a criminal.

I’m tired of people like MikeB302000 advocating we live our lives at the whims of criminals and criminal enablers like themselves without, and that is the big issue, without living their values.

Here is an opportunity for those people to show the world if they truly will live their values or if they nothing but the hypocrites we believe them to be.

Please join the discussion by adding your own provisions.

Okay folks, I’ve been trying to avoid Sparky but somethings just aren’t meant to be.

First up is the comment he left here, which I’ve approved (minus the link to his site) to show that I’m not making this up.

My thoughts and prayers are with you too, Bob. Or at least they’re with your wife, for you I’m still hoping you shoot yourself in the foot – just a graze. (please smile at least, man)

Does Weer’d mean his wife is sick too? I may have seen that before but I forgot. Same goes for her. I am a believer and I believe that lots of prayers and good wishes do lots of good.

This “believer”, this husband and former Marine  tries to pass off a wish for me to injure myself as a joke. Sorry Sparky, it isn’t funny — not at all. It really fits in with the meme “Why are anti-gun advocates so violent”.

And by the way, how many people think his well wishes are sincere or just another attempt to troll for blog hits, eh?

And exactly what I have done MikeB302000 to deserve such an injury? Sought to protect my rights, protect my family, protect my wife or enable her to protect herself ? Or do you think that someone who had 4 procedures in a month, is currently undergoing chemotherapy should be forced to fight hand to hand against anyone who wishes her harm?

It shows your true nature when you can not even sincerely wish well of my wife without showing what a hypocritical piece of trash you are.

Second is a blog post he did at his place regarding a 69 year old grandmother who defended herself from a violent thug.

This young man was wounded quite seriously. He could easily have been killed. What if his intentions were not to rape and murder but just to steal the microwave and slip back out the door? In that case, and I know we can’t know that and the lady was within her rights to defend herself, but if the kid wasn’t really a lethal threat, the response was excessive. Am I right?

Wouldn’t there be a middle-ground approach too? How about telling the burglar, “I’ve got a gun on you, turn around and get out.” I know that offends all you letter-of-the-law guys who fantasize about just this kind of opportunity, but putting aside all that macho nonsense for a minute, wouldn’t it have been better if granny had scared the kid away instead of shooting three times at center of mass?

Let’s take this putrid comment in sections, eh?

MikeB302000 seems to be saying that a person’s property doesn’t really belong to them if a criminal wants it. How is that reasonable or sensible?

but just to steal the microwave and slip back out the door?

Think about that….people shouldn’t interfere with criminals if all they wanted was property. Never mind that at 69; it might be the only way she had to cook or that she would have to chose between medicine and replacing property.

Hey Sparky, is there a list of property it is acceptable for a thug to steal (TVs, DVD players, etc)  and a list of property (prescription medicines, family heirlooms, etc) that we can use violence to protect?

Nope, Criminal Enabler MikeB302000 doesn’t want people to stop thugs.

This young man was wounded quite seriously

Maybe if he didn’t want to be injured severely; he shouldn’t broken the law.
The homeowner isn’t a mind reader, she doesn’t know the thugs intentions.

Maybe MikeB302000 would rather the homeowner be subjected to treatment like this:

FORT WORTH — The 78-year-old Meadowbrook woman grabbed a baseball bat after she awoke to the sound of a doorbell, then a bang and a crash as someone kicked in the front door of her home.

She testified Wednesday that the intruder took the bat away, jerked her arm behind her back, choked her, fondled her and forced her to watch while he masturbated.

This lady did everything that a criminal enabler like MikeB302000 would ask: she asked him to leave, she used a less than lethal tool in her defense — one which required her to get within arms reach of a younger, stronger male attacker — she cooperated.

And instead of taking her property, he wanted something else. After Green suggested that Stewart change his life by reading the Bible, he began choking her. She said he ordered her to pull up her T-shirt so he could see her breasts, then unzipped his pants and fondled her while he masturbated. “He choked me where I couldn’t breathe,” she testified. “I thought he was going to kill me.” This is the type of person MikeB302000 wants to give multiple chances to hurt, maim, molest or murder while denying people their right to defend themselves from thugs like this. but if the kid wasn’t really a lethal threat, the response was excessive.

Folks this is what criminal enabling, anti-rights advocates want — senior citizens at the “mercy” of vicious thugs.

Doesn’t matter if the thug only wants to rape, humiliate, rob or debase people….it’s not a ‘lethal threat’ so shooting someone is ‘excessive’.

Think about what the folks like MikeB302000 want. They want you, I, our wives, our sons and daughters at the mercy of sick and twisted individuals like Stewart.

Next MikeB302000 consistently advocates for forgiveness and multiple chances for criminals while calling for single strike laws for gun owners. Let’s take a look at the history of Stewart: Because he had seven prior felony convictions, Stewart’s prison term had to be at least 25 years. Not arrests but 7 prior felony convictions !

These aren’t my words, this are MikeB302000‘s words — all the while wishing harm on me — not serious harm, just a grazing wound.

I really wish this was an aberration for MikeB302000 and his fellow criminally enabling, anti-rights advocating gun control friends — but it isn’t. Neither is the type of crime in either story. Thugs will seek to prey on senior citizens; both for fiscal gain and their own warped goals.
I really wish stories like the one in Fort Worth were uncommon but they are not.

Hey Sparky, can you tell everyone just how a home owner is supposed to know which thug breaking in is JUST a THIEF and which is a RAPIST or MURDER? Or does the homeowner have to wait for the thug to start the rape/murder before defending themselves?

People like MikeB302000 want to deny people the right to defend themselves — note the outcome in the two different stories.

The Senior Citizen who had the firearm – unharmed.
The Senior Citizen who had a baseball — molested in her own home

It leaves no doubt in my mind which side MikeB302000 is on  and it isn’t the side of the senior citizens looking to protect themselves.

Please join the discussion.

all you letter-of-the-law guys who fantasize about just this kind of opportunity

By the way Sparky, when you owned firearms — legally, were you a “letter of the law” type who fantasized about shooting people?

Is there where you developed your extensive experience with fantasies or was did it develop when you broke the law to own firearms?

That is one of the favorite memes of the Anti Rights Advocates mistakenly called “Gun Control Advocates”.

In what appears to be a complete shift of gears, I want to mention one of my favorite television shows, Spike TVs “The Deadliest Warrior”. Does anyone else watch it?

It pits, through computer simulation, different warriors against each other. I enjoy learning about the arms and armament some of history’s most famous warriors used.

Not to mention multiple shot firearms designed by Leonardo Da Vinci, 15th Century Volley Guns — including some handheld versions,weapons using gunpowder to propel arrows.

The Founding Fathers might be astounded to see the rate of fire, but without a doubt, they were able to envision capable of massive destruction. To say that the Founding Fathers could not conceive of modern rapid fire weapons is simply ridiculous or simply, flat out lying.

To come back to where I started,  learn some history, pull your head out of a lower orifice Mr./Mrs. Anti Rights Advocate — watch some shows like Deadliest Warriors, you might just realize how ridiculous you sound telling these lies.

That’s right boys and girls, it’s no longer your property that you have a right to do as you want with, it is now a potential revenue stream for the city of Dallas.

City managers have floated the idea of charging $5, as a way to help balance next year’s tough budget…

Jasso and Caraway estimate the fee could bring in $500,000 next year, and they recommend the money go toward senior dental services, cultural affairs programs, graffiti removal and animal services.

Think about that for a minute.

You would  no longer be allowed to sell your stuff, on your property, when you want to without giving a cut of your money to the city.

Oh, and they get their cut before you sell a single item. Heck at least the mob waits until you’ve sold things.

well maybe not in the Army but definitely in the clutches of the “hurry up and wait” crowd.

Hopefully the routine will go a little smoother next time we have to but this morning it was a little long getting in to see the doc before the chemo session starts.

For those who may not know, the folks who treat cancer patients are a paranoid lot. Before each session (and in between sessions), blood work is done, the doctor reviews the results and then, approves the chemo session.

I’m okay with that, they are very good about monitoring changes in the blood cells to make sure she can tolerate the chemo, not drop too low in white cells (fighting infections), etc.

Started the morning at 9:00 a.m. with a prayer from one of our ministers, then the blood work, then the doctor review. Got into the chemotherapy room after 11:00 and the started the pre-meds (nausea), I went to lunch and to drop off some prescriptions.

I’m back and watching her doze in the chair. It’s going to be a couple of hours more before we are done.

May or may not be back. Thanks for the thoughts, prayers, encouragement and support; all of it is greatly appreciated.

Update — she was done about 3:30 and we made it home not long ago. Got her settled in for a nap and she’s doing well.

Three California gun control bills have died. AB 1810, the long gun registration bill from Mike Feur (D), AB 1934, the open carry ban from Lori Saldana (D), and AB 2358, the ammunition vendor reporting bill from Kevin DeLeon (D) died last night. From CRPA News and Updates, via CalGuns: "All three of these bills posed a fundamental threat to the rights of gun owners. And there was no room for compromise any one of the bills. It was a fight down to midnight, but in the late hours of August 31, AB 1810, AB 1934, and AB 2358 were DEFEATED! "This is a huge win for gun owners. Thank you...

As a couple of really caring people have pointed out privately I haven’t provided an update on my lovely Bride lately.

Mostly that is because not much has been happening with She Who Lets Me Make Her Coffee Every Morning (SWLMMHCEM) except for a slow but steady recovery.

After the last procedure in July, she decided (after talking to me and her doctors) to take the month of August off so she can build her strength back.

Tomorrow is the end of that time off; her first Chemo session starts at 9.

We’ve visited the facility a while back and learned much about the process, the drugs used and what to expect.

The major issue with the chemo session? Boredom. The after effects we don’t know about yet but the drugs are slowly infused and have to be given one at a time. Between lab work, doctor eval, and the infusion; SWLMMHCEM looks to be at the facility for half the day or more.

We’ve set her up with an MP3 player, her lap top is charged and ready, and she has a book or two for non-digital entertainment.

Her mom and I will attend the first chemo session tomorrow, so look for updates as the day goes by.

In the mean time, please keep Weer’d Beard’s Missus in your thoughts as she undergoes surgery for her epilepsy. Check for updates here – so far it appears she’s out of surgery and Weer’d is waiting to talk to the Doc.
