Probably the most entertaining satirical video you'll see today: a citizen vs the nanny-state (city council edition). Ass-shland city council is considering an ordinance against open-carry of firearms (which is legal in Oregon). One citizens steps up in an epic way:
I've had my fill of government bureaucrats and other busybodies who are interested in enacting pointless and ineffectual laws against such things as our right to bear arms (openly or concealed), thereby punishing the majority of citizens who are at least somewhat responsible, sane, level-headed, etc. while making us all easier targets for those who are not sane, level-headed, or who are just plain sociopathic. But guns represent freedom and responsibility (even if they would be ineffectual in, for example, an actual rebellion), things that Leftists and other Statists don't want to encourage.
We may be pessimists, but we are prepared to give an account of our hope. We may be skeptics, but we are ever faithful. We may look down with sorrow on the human condition--but this sorrow begets charity. We are heralds of the dusk, but like watchmen we await the new dawn.
Contra Mozilla
[close]
Firefox users we wanted to take this space to let you know what Mozilla, the company that makes Firefox has been doing, and it's not good. Mozilla recently forced its CEO to resign because he had, 6 years ago, donated $1,000 to a pro-family political group. Apparently Mozilla is intolerant of anyone that disagrees with their Liberal/progressive view of politics. To read more please visit WhyFirefoxIsBlocked.com. We aren't blocking Firefox, but we feel it is important to let you know what's going on. For those who are curious, the reason why we are not blocking firefox is that the script to do so also blocks a variety of firefox alternatives, such as IceDragon and others which are similar to firefox and based on the same open-source code. We do think it is important to push back on this issue: for starters, you can leave firefox a comment here. You can also switch to another browser: here are six more free browsers (besides IceDragon) which are supposed to be similar to FireFox (because they are based on the same open-source code) but which are not otherwise affiliated with Mozilla.
