What the ChiCom Propaganda Apparatus Managed to Deliver Without My Help. John Lott, collectivist stooge and useful idiot, speaking with absolutely no personal experience of militia, sneers at our motivations and downplays our numbers.

In political jargon, useful idiot is a term for people perceived as propagandists for a cause whose goals they are not fully aware of, and who are used cynically by the leaders of the cause. -- Wikipedia.

Readers may recall my recent refusal to cooperate in our own demonization.

The Chicoms had no trouble finding a useful idiot, however: meet John Lott, talking out his ass about something he knows absolutely nothing about.

Readers with longer memories may recall that Lott tracked me down in the crowd following my speech on the steps of the CT state house in April 2013 at the time of the Sandy Hook Intolerable Act and denounced me bitterly as someone who "alienated political allies" with my "irresponsible" advocacy of armed civil disobedience.

Ah well, once a collectivist stooge, always a collectivist stooge, I guess. Perhaps he should do another book entitled "More Propaganda, Less Principle."

Matt Bracken said...: I was also pitched by the ChiComs to speak about "the militias." As soon as I got the email I looked up CCTV and found out it's ChiComTV. I replied that I didn't know any militias or anything about them. Then I posted his email on my facebook wall for a group laugh.; January 24, 2016 at 6:42 AM
Anonymous said...: A useful idiot reporting (reporting??) to even bigger collectivist idiots. One big circle jerk for self-satisfied socialists still wearing a Che Guevara T-shirt. In times of real trouble they're the ones I worry least about, as their definition of "wet-work" is peeing on each other for sexual gratification...; January 24, 2016 at 2:30 PM
Dr.D said...: It's unfortunate as Lotts book "more guns, less crime" is a seminal work in the 2A freedom movement..; January 24, 2016 at 5:07 PM
quaker said...: You wouldn't remember this, but I have not forgotten it. As strangers, we sat for a while at the same long table (me on the far right and you on the far left) during the SAF's "27th Annual Gun Rights Policy Conference" in Orlando, FL, in September 2012. This was before you lost all of your weight to the illness. I thought I recognized you, but later couldn't find an opportunity to speak to you/introduce myself. I carry that regret with me.

This was the same conference that refused to let you speak (as I found out later) and the same conference that played it easy with Emily Miller and Mark O'Mara (known primarily for being George Zimmerman's attorney) as speakers. Perhaps if you had worn a bow tie ....

Also on the dais was a thoroughly bored John Lott. Even his brief talk was weak and uninspired. Maybe he wasn't being paid--or paid enough. Lott seems like the sort of guy who would refuse to give a courtesy reach-around.

John Dough said...: One doesn't have to BE a militiaman, or politician, or policeman to know something about militias, politics or law. Your name-calling is out of order.; January 26, 2016 at 9:26 AM
Chiu ChunLing said...: If you know about politics and the law, you have no moral excuse for being a politician or a policeman.

If you know about the militia, you have not excuse for not being a militiaman.; January 26, 2016 at 5:07 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

-- Mike Vanderboegh, The Lessons of Mumbai:Death Cults, the "Socialism of Imbeciles" and Refusing to Submit, 1 December 2008

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
