We Know Who Cheers for NO "Universal Background Check":


Just like the wise bartenders and bar-flies on Cheers, we Progressive Comrades need to be smart enough to counter these silly arguments against both our gun-control throwaway ploy (AR-15s and magazines for more than ten rounds) as well as against our real objective "Universal" Background Checks as back-door registration/regulation to enable Government to conduct unannounced gun-safety checks of any gun owner without need for a warrant, we must also be prepared to de-bunk the numerous other myths touted by gun-clingers (notice that one need change only one letter to reveal their true identity as gun slingers)

What are some of these myths? Consider the following:

1. When communities with strict gun-laws but high rates of murders by use of firearms say the reason their murder rates are so high is that their criminals travel to states with lax gun-laws (e.g., Chicago criminals traveling to Virginia) to purchase guns and then take them back to their communities to murder children and adults in their communities, what do the gun-clingers (gun-slingers) say? They say, "If guns were the cause of the problems, the murder rates would be highest in the areas in which guns are more easily purchased, but the reverse is true." How do we counter that? We can't, so we must simply rely upon emotional appeals to LIVs to draw their attention solely to the plight of children and adults murdered by gun-slingers. We needn't worry about responding to such arguments with logic, because we know the LIVs lack sufficient knowledge-base to understand the context needed for logical analysis.

2. It''s indisputable that every year the misuse of alcoholic beverages causes far more carnage among children as well as adults than does negligent or criminal use of firearms, yet we know that none of us who dares call himself a "progressive" would ever propose a law that would prohibit anyone from acquiring an alcolohic beverage by purchase (or by gift from a spouse, parent, son, daughter, family member, friend, etc.) without first passing a "Universal Background Check" to prove such purchaser (or recipient) has never been convicted of drunk driving, has never had a drunk-driving charge dismissed upon successful completion of probation, treatment or counseling, and has never otherwise undergone treatment or counseling for alcohol abuse. So how can we counter the gun-slingers' assertions not only that:

A.

such analysis makes it obvious that the argument for "Universal" Background Checks for any and every aquisition of a firearm under any circumstance is vastly weaker than an argument for "Universal" Background Checks before acquiring an alcoholic drink?

and

B.

in contrast to alcoholic beverages, there's virtually never been a case that one person drinking alcohol saved the life of another but every year the number of lives saved by lawful possession/display/use of firearms save many more lives than deaths caused by neglient/criminal use of firearms

We can't, so we must simply rely upon emotional appeals to LIVs to draw their attention solely to the plight of children and adults murdered by gun-slingers. We needn't worry about responding to such arguments with logic, because we know the LIVs lack a sufficient knowledge-base to understand the context needed for logical analysis.

Comrade KOOK,

Excess drinking can save lives! I believe this comrade may have - at least potentially - saved the life of his passenger on the drive home by finishing the last beer.

Comrade Craptek,

On behalf of all good Progressives who would agree with our bar-tending comrades, I may be forced to concede that you may have found a single instance of a smoking bottle. Surely this will enable us Progressives to easily enable all LIVs to recognize this photograpic evidence as conclusive proof that excessive drinking actually saves more lives than lawful use of firearms in defense of self or others by deterring or terminating criminal activity. Just how many girlfriends' lives were saved by their boyfriends getting too drunk to even get into the vehicle may be stored somewhere in the archives of the NIH or the NHTSA or even the CCD. Maybe you should demand a ride on Air Force One to attend a news conference to reveal this smoking-bottle evidence to the public at large. I bet they'd even serve you some first-class Stoli on the plane.

Excess drinking saves children's lives. To quote Dear Leader, "If excess drinking can save one child's life...shouldn't we all work together to pass this "One For The Road" legislation tomorrow?"

"Pssst. Did you pass your "Universal Background Check?"

"Here's to swim'n with bow-legged women."

Craptek, you're on to something, but for your slogan to effectively inspire the saving of many lives, you inadvertantly omitted one essential word: "gallon"

"One Gallon for the Road (to guarantee the consumer never makes it to his/her car)."

No doubt, Mayor Bloomberg will quickly see the wisdom in a regulation prohibiting the sale of any alcoholic beverage smaller than the one-gallon size (with a funnel and hose rather than sissy-straw) coupled, of course, with the requirement that it be chugged or guzzled within 10 minutes or less. Of course a complimentary barf bucket must also be included. And, to achieve maximum efficiency by not wasting the resulting empty intestinal track, an ObamaCare Colonoscopy could also be included since the subject will, by then, be suitably sedated.

Posters could feature the World's Most Interesting Man saying, "I don't usually drink beer, but when I do, I chug a gallon within three minutes for the safety of 'the children®.'"

Another poster: "Friends Don't Let Friends Drink Less Than a Gallon Within 10 Minutes."



--KOOK

Yes! KOOK. We can call it "The Ten Minute Rule". All gallon jugs of beer will display a label clearly stating: "Consumption time restricted by federal regulation to 10 minutes or unconsciousness (which ever comes first) S145,117,966.528

Comrades! Just think of the power we can wield with the precedence of UBC's!

Guns and other tools counterrevolutionaries could use to resist the oncoming tidal wave of a progressive new dawn of history would only be the beginning.

Just think of the possibilities to combat the scourge of obesity and climate change as just two good examples.

A UBC on all food purchases will give us complete power in controlling the people's diets.

Want to buy two sodas and drive up the costs for the new Obamacare collective? Not so fast comrade with UBC and your Obamacare ID card you will need to buy everything

Want to drive your planet destroying big car around? Not so fast Comrade since you will need to pass a UBC for gas.

Guns and ammo will just be a start, controls on what your kids eat at home will soon be on the menu.

Your child wants some sugary cereal in the morning? Well comrade mom, that indulgence will have to be logged in our central Obamacare database and you will soon be ‘directed' on more suitable foods for the children of the collective.

It's been said that 90% want this new clampdown on their freedom so as to appear ‘moderate' on the subject – the wonders of propaganda are amazing at times.



Is there any doubt that the National Socialists would love to have this level of control over everyone's life and liberty?

Universal Background Checks will just be the camel's nose under the tent wall. Past history has shown that once an oppressive government has an authoritarian inch, they will take a mile in your freedom.

Comrade Sterpin,

You are so correct in excavating the depth and breadth of the good we can do with the power we're relentlessly assembling bit by bit (and byte by byte), but you're merely scratching the surface in doing so. Recently, Red Square highlighted our guiding star in referencing an old quotation about exercising power in the name of doing good. We can rest assured that so long as we retain our vise-grip on all "news" and entertainment media dominating popular culture, we need not fear the LIV's comprehending the danger of govermental power to do good being undisciplined by the limitation-of-power principles those long-dead males (whom the Tea-Partiers patriarchially call "Founding Fathers") embodied in the Pre-Living Version of the U.S. Constitution. (Indeed, many years ago in my pre-re-educated, pre-straight-jacket life, I predicted the War Against Tobacco was merely the tip of the spear for the War on Imperfection to protect us not only from Big Tobacco but also Big Mayonaise -- but not Big Beer).

UBC will lay the necessary groundwork for Wise Government Leaders to do an almost infinite amount of good by applying modern brain-mapping and psychoanalytic technology to not only detect and mitigate against "Pre-Crime" thinking but to actually replace such thinking with Progressive Thoughts. To grasp this is beyond the kin of the LIVs, so we needn't worry that they will "wake up" before we have achieved the means to perpetuate their sleepwalking. The insufficiently progressive "liberals" who have thus far remained steadfastly on our side are too scientifically illiterate to understand how, and how soon, we can accomplish this:







At least then I won't have to wear this straight-jacket any longer because I'll have a "straight mind" and thus become immune from the anti-progressive social disease of backsliding into re-embracing foolish and outmoded concepts of liberty and free-will.

Free will does not exist and never did. The B. F. Skinheads said so. Now be a good lab rat and eat your government cheese.

Obama toasts Cheers for NO "Uinversal Background Check":

Cheers to no background checks for drinking, pot-smoking pot, getting food
stamps, welfare, Solyndra, Fisker, Fast & Furious, Kenya, Indonesia, my law school transcripts, my college transcripts, the reasons for which Michelle's and my licenses to practice
law were revoked in Illinois, my long-time associations with Bill Ayers and countless
other leftist radicals, etc.
