1. Pre-crime, say it ain’t so Uncle Bill. Along with Robot’s, camera’s, Sirius (spelling), and gun control. Great Britain is probably the proving ground.
   Pre-crime, most think it was just the subject in a movie.
   Where can I get the shiny foil wall paper in Conspiracy Theory?
   If movies start to be real we had better re-watch them and take notes.

2. On SOCIALISM: “Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.” [guitar jams with windmilling]

3. Pre-crime:

   This is not surprising. Their government is a monarchy (Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom – Wikipedia). People have no natural rights. They are granted privileges by their ruler. The privileges can be modified or revoked at any time.

   That’s why living in a republic with common law is so much better. Sadly most people think we live in a democracy and have zero or almost zero understanding of the differences. I consider the word “democracy” a four-letter word.

4. Second Amendment:

   “The structure of the Swiss militia system stipulates that the soldiers keep their Army issued equipment, including all personal weapons, at home.”

   “Gun politics in Switzerland are unique in Europe in that a relatively high percentage (29%) of citizens are legally armed.”

5. Reason #5036 to leave public schools…. http://www.twincities.com/2017/10/04/bemidji-principal-child-sex-crimes-parents-crowd-state-courtroom-pleads-guilty/

   1. This is just one reason why we need dumb cell phones with NO internet access, NO texting.

      1. Can someone offer for sale a dumb flip phone with NO internet, NO texting, NO camera, NO games and NO GPS.

         1. Cosumer cellular is the only one I could find for my teen. Plan is voice only. This is from many, many hours of searching.

6. the discussion of whether the right of the people to keep and bear a particular firearm could be Constitutionally infringed should always include a discussion of standing armies.

7. In reference to the Second Amendment:

   The only authority, under our Constitution, that the general government has is to set the MINIMUM standard of weapon that the citizen should keep and bear (own and carry). It requires no legislation unless they desire to expand the requirement from the State militias to include the general population, the whole body of the people.

   That minimum standard would of course be a select-fire weapon in one of basically 4 calibers for a long gun (5.56 NATO, 7.62 NATO, .30-06, and 7.62×39), and semi auto pistol in one of 3 calibers (9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP).

   Standard magazine capacities for all, 20+ for long guns and 13+1 to 17+1 depending on caliber for pistols.

   I know all of the above has been detailed before in this blog. I will add one more thing: even the States, counties, and municipalities have only limited ability to deny the fundamental human right of self defense. It’s called due process. There must first be a crime committed, an investigation, an arrest, a charge, a trial and, most importantly, a conviction before such a right may be taken. And I might add that upon full, successful completion of one’s sentence, all rights denied must be restored.

   Think about it, did the framers of the Second Amendment really stipulate that the general government should not infringe on the right to keep and bear, but that the States could? When they referred to “necessary to the security of a free state”, were they talking about the nonexistent State of America, or the individual States? Just remember, when they originally wrote the phrase the united States of America, the “U” in united was lower case, for a reason. Even, long after the dictator Lincoln, the USA was generally referred to as “the States”.
