I vowed that I wouldn’t write another blog/diary after publicly loosing my shit earlier this year. If you want to know why, just read some of my posts from that time. I could delete them, but I do want a record of my pain. I’m much better now. Another grand example of a better life through Chemistry. I do miss the little orange flourish though, but hey, life moves on.
Now that the good people of France are, once again, rounding up the usual subjects, suspending constitutional liberties in the process, it’s time for the good folks on the right side of the aisle in Congress to, rather predictably, lose their collective shit over the recent events in Paris. If Rahm Emanuel makes his credo “You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before”, then it’s republican version would be: You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what we mean by that, it’s an opportunity to pander and indulge the most rancid, recalcitrant and raciest component of the stupidest part of our base like you could not do before. My question at this juncture is:
“How can Daesh (ISIS/ISIL) do one single Allah forsaken thing to us that we’re not doing to ourselves already?”
I specifically refer to our country’s gun laws that let any slimy little fucktard idiot who hasn’t been institutionalized by the courts (who don’t have anything better to do) to one of this countries more luxurious mental health facilities, and doesn’t mind gambling on a 50/50 chance that the FBI will be too busy to run the required background check in a timely manner. And that’s only if they’re so far gone, or stupid, that they make the mistake of buying their gun from a Federal Firearms Licensee rather than from a gun show or private owner that don’t require any background checks. So if you’s gots yourself some unresolved “issues” in life (maybe some mean girls said unflattering things to you when you asked them to the prom, or maybe your neighbor’s dog barks too loud at night, who knows), then dig deep, puts down your money and apply for your constitutionally diaphanous second amendment remedies. You never know. You might get lucky.
Dylann Roof didn’t have any problem getting his gat. Despite self admitting to drug possession and use (Buprenorphine, or Suboxone, a semisynthetic opiate) to local police; Roof exploited a significant but rarely acknowledged loophole: If a background check takes the FBI longer than three days to complete, a gun dealer can sell the gun anyway. Oh well, nobody’s perfect 100% of the time. So what, did you expect for the asshole who sold this human skid mark his gun to do? Turn down a sale? Hells No! And he was right too ‘cause young Dylann had him some shootin’ to do and four days would just be way, way too long a wait!
And who could forget Jared Lee Loughner? Even though Loughner was batshit crazy enough to get himself kicked out of community college, and was rejected as “unfit” by the Army, he was still able to purchase the 9 mm Glock 19 with the super cute matching 33 round clips that comes extra. So what dark, back alley did Jared have to traverse to get him his shootin’ irons? He bought the Glock he used to shoot AZ Rep. Gabby Giffords and kill 6 other people in the shooting from a Sportsman’s Warehouse in Tucson, A Licensed Gun Dealer.
Even though he had a well documented history of polydrug abuse to include Cannabis, Salvia devonium, Psilocybe cubensis (magic mushrooms), Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, good ol’ fashioned Ethanol, and (what white trash mass shooting would be complete without a little N-methyl-alpha-methylphenethylamine, or) meth, he was still legally able to (and I can’t emphasize enough the legal aspect of this) buy his kinetic energy weapon. All this happened even though U.S. Firearms Transaction Form 4473 clearly asks each person applying for a firearm: Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance? How could such a devious and cunning fail-safe firewall like Question 11 (e) of U.S. Federal Form 4473 fail to keep a gun outta this crazy fucks hands? It boggles the mind. Oh well, he musta hacked the system somehow. That’s what you get when dealing with criminal masterminds like Dylan.
I could go down an endless list of these assholes, but we all know the stories. There have been 18 Americans killed so far in schools this year alone. That doesn’t count the church shootings, or shootings caught on live morning television. So I repeat my question: Who do these punk, Daesh, piker, assholes think they’re fucking with? How in the wide, wide world of sports do they think they could do any more damage to us that we aren’t already doing to ourselves?
So you Daesh assholes think you wanna kill Americans? Well get the fuck in line and take a God Damn number! The cue is awfully long so your patients is greatly appreciated. If killing 20 people in an elementary school doesn’t raise the heat under the collective asses of our legislator’s, then what the fuck do you pussies think you’re going to do?
Call me when you get a body count in the thousands (Osama kind of set the bar pretty high on that one), otherwise Shut the Fuck Up you cowardly Daesh scumbag douches. You may scare the media outlets in this country, and you may scare fudgewit republican Presidential candidates, but we don’t need your help to shoot and kill Americans in this county. We can do just fine at that all on our own! No help necessary. We cool wif it. Thanks but no. We good. Check with The Soviet Un… I mean Russia. They may need help.
