Comrades. sometimes news stories can be deceptive even when correct. A case in point:


Because the story focuses on keys rather than the legislation's true intent, one might get a false impression that Minnesota is banning keys. All keys.


In fact, the Minnesota nanny state legislation is a sweeping ban on lead and cadmium in consumer products such as most keys, but since no one has ever suffered poisoning from using keys, what's the point?

It's not hard to see the actual intent, and if this law is passed, expect it to be duplicated in every other blue state. 

 

Most Equally Esteemed Comrade Colonel,

Will everyone be denied ammunition contaminated with lead?  Will law enforcement be disarmed as well?  Will the government have a monopoly on contaminating the environment (and the bodies of citizens) with lead?  Consequently the government will have a monopoly on the use of deadly force.  That ALWAYS turns out well.  

Just a modest proposal:  Develop and produce depleted uranium rounds for use by the general population.  I’m sure that will be better than all that lead and cadmium.

First they came for the keys, but we thought we don’t need to be able to lock our houses to protect our lives and property, anyway. Then they came for artists’ tubes of Windsor Newton cadmium red, cadmium yellow, and lead white, but we didn’t paint ourselves, so the sound of a big whoop went unheard.

Stop the jackalope if you’ve heard this before.

Only a painter knows these forbidden names. Speak them not in public!

Artists go first...ask Red Square.
Pretty soon, the collective ain't talking Vacation Bible School, no more.

This Key DRAGNET is real, comrades. It's the ability to defend yourself, nasty people hate.

You, with a loaded gun, with the ability to defend yourself from people against good and normalcy - P.A.G.A.N. - in the Motherland of Minnesota, is a crime against your own NANNY!

Hating this Motherland of Minnesota is no different from hating your own MOTHER...even if she's Hillary!! It does not matter that she gets people killed!!! People die.

Do you understand the KEY situation, comrades??

The plot of this Minnesota DRAGNET ThemePark is to deprive you of ammo, when P.A.G.A.N.s are everywhere, because of civically poor motherlanders in the Motherland of Minnesota.

Is it something in the Rushing Waters?? Russian Waters?? Whatever...

The Motherland of Minnesota is initiating Operation KEY DRAGNET to make you a criminal for your cadmium and lead stock, comrades.



Insert your Motherlander of Minnesota Detective Duo carrying this numbered badge.

I was understandably surprised when I found out that dive operators are not allowed to remelt fishing sinkers into dive weights in Australia. In every other country I've been to diving (including the good ol' USSA), divers collect the fishing sinkers from the reef (along with the snapped lines that are even more hazardous to the reef) and melt them to make inexpensive weights. Buying them retail is very expensive.

Coincidentally, Australian citizens "voluntarily" turned in their firearms a decade or so ago.

That also explains the very expensive dive boat saying their weights are only approximate. Insanity along the lines of your speedometer is only approximate. Of course, I never pay attention to that.

Wow, so Australian Forces are able to stop lead retrieval just like the USSA is able to stop a comrade from magnet fishing. KEYS are retrieved from a watery grave, instead of all that lead and cadmium decay into the Russian Waters in the MotherLand of Minnesota. Or, the Australian reef getting trashed up with lead weights and line, but a comrade might actually benefit from picking up the trash, while also enjoying a dive. Thank Marx the issue is to figure out a way to tax your income from this effort, as a lead weight

Magnet Fishing - there ought to be a law, or at least a regulation, license, and strict weight quota when KEYS could be smelted for their lead, and their cadmium, which then could be put to another purpose in a MotherLand like Minnesota. Training film below.



But back to Australia. Besides letting their reefs get polluted with lead weight, the big gun voluntary confiscation, what else can you report to TPC comrades? We cannot make bricks with out clay!! Kaptain Kangaroo Kourt is OutBack, Again®. The jackalope was crying listening to Mrs. KKK pleading to be allowed to have her support kangaroo sitting next to her on plane flight. SUPPORT Kangaroo!!! Like who do you think earned the money to BUY these tickets???



KKK's wife shouldn't have to go through this because she has a support kangaroo as her companion animal. Jackalopelipsky shed TEARS!!!

How much longer must we suffer? Keys! Lead Weight! Bullets with cadmium, not cadmium red and yellow pigment. Yet, eliminating ubiquitous KEYS is the MotherLand of Minnesota's claim, so artists have nothing to fear...metallurgical smelting of Motherlander's keys for lead and cadmium ain't against the law, yet.

Komrade Horned Lagamorph, I previously worked with an Australian deer hunter (not the cinematic variety, had a real snorkel on his ute). Bagged the largest red deer in Oz ever. His mates said "retire!", you’ll never beat that. He did, the next year. Even though his family owned over 300,000 acres, he was not allowed to hunt there. He had to apply for a permit to hunt on public land.

Onward to next Tuesday.
