-Short Attention Span Theater-
"The Twitter Primary"
Some fluff, some moderately interesting info.

Jeb Bush's "notable follows" (scroll down a ways) are rather telling.

#1  They do this to keep from saying anything relevant.

Seattle considers $25 'gun violence' tax on all gun sales
Can the gang-bangers pay that with an EBT card?

#1  That will most likely pass in a liberal state.

However, there are contingency plans about to be tested in states that are considered "hostile" such as in Texas and Utah along with other Southwestern states. Federal troops will be involved.

These exercises will consist of members of the military wearing civilian clothes and driving civilian cars who will blend in with the general population of the community. Once back at their base they will meet with JIDC (Joint Interrogation Detention Center) personnel for debriefing.

After intelligence is gathered operations will occur in the communities with local police being notified only of their presence but not of their practice mission and the personnel will have an arm band identifying them similar to this photo:




and they will be armed but their weapons will have blanks and MWDs Military Working Dogs will be a part if this stage of operations. Their activities will occur in the middle of the night could be considered disruptive to the community. A medic will be a part of each operation to provide medical care to detainees and/or to military personnel in the event of injury during an encounter with resistance to the operation.


Detainees (at this time personnel acting as detainees) will be transported to an Internment facility such as a vacant school, retail location (vacant Walmart?) where they will be processed by Internment/Resettlement personnel and then interrogated by JIDC.

Per US Army document FM 3-39.40 the media is not allowed to embed with the operation or have any contact with CI (civilian internees).

This event starts on July 15, 2015 in several states and is called Jade Helm 15 (Joint Assistant for Deployment and Execution Homeland Eradication of Local Militants 2015) and will conclude on September 15.

This will be critical to protecting the power of the state in the event of backlash to federal regulations such as violations to new ITAR restrictions implemented by Presidential Executive Order banning any publication of firearm or ammunition technical detail discussions that carry a 1 million dollar fine and up to 20 years in Federal Prison if anyone in hostile states are in violation of the new "law".

#2  Maybe they could also charge people where they live an extra tax based on the amount of violence in the area?
Or would this be racist?

#4  When I first scanned the headline, I thought it said "Senate", like the one in D.C.

Not yet, anyway....

#5  Time to open a gun shop just outside the city limits.

#6  ^ a lot already did due to City of Seattle restrictions and zoning abuses of those "Icky" 2nd Amendment vendors
Posted by: Frank G || 07/09/2015 8:46 Comments || Top||

#7  Make it yearly, then subtract $1 for every gun crime using an illegal gun and $1 for every crime stopped because of a legal gun. Then provide a refund of total value if necessary.

If only legal guns are being used to commit crimes nobody should be opposed. Otherwise it comes off as needless taxation/distraction or outright attempts to disarm voters.

#8  Ebbomosh Hupemp2664 , it does not sound like you are familiar with the military. Few are lefty partisan operatives. Very few.
Posted by: rjschwarz || 07/09/2015 12:16 Comments || Top||

#9  How about a $1,000,000 'incompetent boob' tax on everyone elected to public office?
Posted by: Iblis || 07/09/2015 12:48 Comments || Top||

#10  Maybe they accept they can't possibly get all the illegal guns off the street, so they deflect the problem to legal gun owners.

"If only you let us control all the guns, crime would go away!"

#11  it does not sound like you are familiar with the military. Few are lefty partisan operatives. Very few.

A guy called in to the local PM talk radio show in my neck of the woods - " 'Veterans for Obama' - how small is that group?"
Posted by: Raj || 07/09/2015 14:33 Comments || Top||

#12  I suspect the Veterans for Obama group is less than the number of black veterans.

#13  it does not sound like you are familiar with the military

It does not sound like he's familiar with reality.
Posted by: Pappy || 07/09/2015 16:10 Comments || Top||

#14  Sounds a lot like the brilliant -- and unconstitutional -- idea of taxing newsprint.
Posted by: Rob Crawford || 07/09/2015 16:48 Comments || Top||

#15  Ebbomosh: I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same

Note that those come before the "obey orders" and every boot is drilled about lawful orders and the duty to question or refuse unlawful orders.
