Why is it that when you go to McDonald’s and order anything followed by “and an apple pie” they always ask you how many apple pies you want?

…are the politicians listening?

Spotted over at The Smallest Minority, reports of a Florida Senate-critter having a survey on his website asking if people would be in favor of reinstating a federal assault weapon ban. The joke is that there were 23 Yes votes, 27 No votes, 0 Undecided votes — for a total of 1745 recorded votes.

Only in government non-reality does 23 + 27 + 0 = 1745. No wonder they have spending problems.

But here’s the thing: they fixed it. And people are voting. And this is what it looks like right now:

That’s 125 votes in favor of, 6327 opposed, and 20 with no opinion (in which case, I ask, why would you have bothered to click through?) for a total of 6472 votes.

That, my friends is The People saying, “Hell no.”

Not really news as I think I posted before about TrackingPoint.

The UN is populated by the mouthpieces of tyrants. Liberty and tyranny are completely incompatible.

First, I wouldn’t put it past the present administration to investigate the plausibility of confiscation. We all know they can’t do math, so they wouldn’t be able to figure out the end result of an attempt to do that.

Then there’s this little gem spotted at NJT: Pentagon Has Plans to Confiscate Firearms With Help of the NRA.

Think about this: NRA helping the Pentagon and UN “Peacekeeping” forces to confiscate firearms from law-abiding free citizens with information obtained from Google Street View?

Seems to me that the conspiracy theorists are working full-tilt and continue to remain oblivious to reality.
