Daily Broadside | You’re going to die and Happy Holidays!

Daily Verse | 1 Peter 2:24
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

Wednesday’s Reading: 2 Peter 1-3

Happy Wednesday my friends. You know that I caught the Beijing Blight in October and suffered some powerful negative effects on my energy levels, but have basically recovered to my pre-Covid health. I don’t regret not getting vaccinated and still have no plans to do so — even with the Delta and Omicron variants free-floating across the globe.

The truth is that this virus and its variants are following the pattern of most viruses: it starts out strong but weakens over time to where it’s just another illness that we learn to live with. And live with it we can, especially since the Omicron variant only produces mild symptoms, and sometimes none at all. I’ve read opinion pieces where the authors report that they can’t find any record of any death as the result of being infected with the Omicron variant.

But Gropey Joe and his minions are keeping the pressure campaign going.

This kind of rhetoric is very damaging to the country. First, the grave words don’t match the reality. Omicron isn’t “disrupting” anything. Maybe there’s some infections, but our hospitals aren’t overwhelmed with the deathly ill and as far as we know, no one has died of the Omicron variant.

Second, there are obviously two audiences being spoken to here: the vaxxed and the unvaxxed. Note the language: the vaccinated “have done the right thing” — it’s a moral claim of “rightness” for the vaccinated, which also implies that the other group — the unvaccinated — have not done the right thing.

Then there’s, “we will get through this.” That “we” is the White House aligning itself with the morally superior group. They’re essentially saying, “hey, we’re with you; we’re there for you; we’re in this together.”

Now look at the text to the unvaccinated: “you’re,” “yourselves,” “your,” “you.” No “we” in there — you’re on your own. And it’s going to be a devastating winter for you with “severe illness and death.” And look at the problem you’re likely to cause: overwhelming hospitals with your irresponsible decision not to get vaxxed.

Vaxxed? Good! Not vaxxed? Baaad!

Third, this is a clear example of pitting groups against each other (in this case, the vaxxed against the unvaxxed), which exacerbates the deep divides that already exist and that the left has been agitating for years.

This is Marxist class warfare dressed up in appeals to our better nature.

We need to reject this kind of agitation out of hand, as we do statements from Joe Biden and Anthony Fauci. Just listen to Biden himself and ask yourself why he’s speaking like a dictator.

Did you ask PERMISSION from Joey 81 MILLION to enjoy getting together with your family this Christmas? Joey Ice Cream Cone says it’s “A-OK” to do that — as long as you’re vaccinated. Again, the implication is that the unvaccinated should stay isolated.

We should absolutely refuse to follow this guidance. The pandemic is essentially over; we’re dealing with a mild flu-like virus that will be with us forever. Unlock the country and open it back up again!

Our federal government has no business messaging the American people with this kind of fear mongering. Ignore it and live life with joy and without fear.

Daily Broadside | Australia Goes Full Tyrannical. Can the U.S. Be Far Behind?

Daily Verse | Haggai 1:5
This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.”

It’s Thursday and the last day of September 2021. What does it mean when you dream of waterskiing across a desert of wood?

Does it or does it not feel like the wheels have come off not only here in the U.S., but increasingly, around the world? It’s like the whole world has gone mad all at once, while we deplorables (aka. normal citizens) look around in disbelief while searching for remote hideouts we can run to when the jackbooted thugs are given permission to ignore our laws and our rights.

Speaking of jackbooted thugs, have you seen what’s going on in Australia, the former British penal colony? The continent is now one big police state. Here’s a video of three police officers questioning a homeowner about his knowledge of any protests he’s been to or any he knows are being planned.

For “safety” you know.

Let’s get to the good stuff. Here are some officers arresting two elderly people, while one of the officers snatches one of the women’s phones while she’s videoing their conversation about being placed under arrest.

Here’s a number of videos from Melbourne.

Remember, this is all about a “virus” that has a better than 99.9% survival rate.

Or is it?

More from Melbourne:

Other examples of the Australian police taking care of their citizens’ health.

What are the police enforcing? Oh, right … the loss of your freedom. The unvaccinated in Australia’s NSW will lose their freedoms on October 11.

Unvaccinated NSW [New South Wales] residents have been delivered a major blow, with officials confirming those in regional areas who haven’t received the vaccine will have some of their new-found freedoms reversed within weeks.

Deputy Premier John Barilaro said the 70 per cent roadmap, which is due to kick in on October 11, will apply to the whole state.

This means unvaccinated people living in areas that aren’t currently in lockdown will no longer be able to enjoy the same freedoms they have in recent weeks.

“So there will be individuals in regional and rural NSW who choose not to be vaccinated who will lose their freedoms on October 11,” Mr Barilaro.

“So my message to everybody in regional and rural NSW is to continue to get vaccinated. We are seeing vaccination rates climb right across the state including in the regions.”

Then there’s this: Australia’s Chief Health Officer tells Aussies they’re never going back to normal. I wonder if Australians regret giving up their guns and gun rights back in 1996 under the national firearms agreement (NFA)?

Semi-automatic rifles and shotguns were prohibited, with a few exceptions, all firearms were required to be registered, a proof of reason would be required for all gun-licence applicants and gun purchases, with self-defence not considered a reason [or protecting yourself from government overreach. dLo]. Licenses would be reviewed, and ammunition sales were to be restricted to those licensed for the specific firearm. A national integrated registry was to be formed.

Notably, the reforms included a buyback of semi-automatic weapons and guns from owners no longer qualified to possess them. About 650,000 guns were destroyed, as part of the reforms that cost $500m.

My emphasis. That agreement came in the wake of a massacre of 35 people, the worst in Australia’s history. Gun deaths dropped in the years that followed, “from 516 in 1996 to 229 in 2019″— a reduction of 287 deaths in 13 years.

Not to minimize any life lost whatsoever, but they took your guns over 516 gun deaths? Out of a population of 25.3 million? At what cost?

Looks like personal freedoms to me. Australia is run by a parliamentary government, similar to the UK. They claim to have a system of checks and balances. So does the United States.

Keep that in mind, my friends. And buy ammo. Lots of ammo. Really. I mean it.

This is not a direct endorsement because everyone’s experience is different, but I’ve purchased from AmmoMan and had good results. I’ve also purchased from local shops near me and had good results.

Whatever you choose, do your homework and buy ammo.
