Property Rights Are A Basic Principle of Liberty

You heard about this incident on Leland Conway and Glenn Beck. Virginia is the Birthplace of Freedom. We set the standards for others to emulate and meet. The incident which generated this legislation was the best example of power-mad officious little pricks getting their jollies threatening landowners, farmers and small rural businesses.

JOIN VIRGINIANS FLOCKING TO SUPPORT THE BONETA BILL
The Boneta Bill, HB 1430, DEFENDS SMALL FARMERS;
 
REDUCES GOVERNMENT
INTRUSION ON CITIZENS AND BUSINESSES
Martha Boneta’s small farm shop is shut down and the fruits of her labor -- herbal teas from her garden, handcrafted soaps from her goats’ milk, and wool crafts from her alpacas, llamas, and sheep -- are going unsold.

Why? Martha is facing a $5,000 fine for hosting a birthday party on her private property for eight 10-year-old girls without a “special” permit from Fauquier County.

Martha also was threatened with two additional $5,000 fines for other supposed infractions:  One for advertising a pumpkin carving and another for operating the small shop on her property where Martha sold her fresh produce and handmade crafts.  A Fauquier County bureaucrat told Martha that she was “out of line.”  But Virginians know that it’s Fauquier County that’s out of line.
That’s why citizens from around the Commonwealth are coming out in droves to support Delegate L. Scott Lingamfelter and his House Bill 1430, the Boneta Bill, for the relief of Martha and small farmers like her. Delegate Lingamfelter (R-31 Prince William and Fauquier) introduced the legislation to strengthen Virginia’s Right to Farm Act (VRFA) and protects farmers like Martha against future encroachments by local government.

In 2012, seventy-five percent of Virginians voted to protect property rights in a state ballot initiative, and the Boneta Bill reflects that sentiment that government is going too far.  The Boneta Bill has galvanized property rights advocates, supporters of the free market, and all who cherish our Constitutional freedoms.
 
Delegate Lingamfelter has met with the Farm Bureau and invited them to the table to help improve the bill.  Delegate Lingamfelter doesn’t care who gets the credit for the legislation. He cares about getting relief for Martha and other farmers and citizens whose lives are being invaded by all levels of government.
 
Make Your Voice Heard
The House of Delegate Agriculture Subcommittee will hold a hearing in the General Assembly Building, 1000 Bank Street, Richmond, VA.  The hearing will be held in the 5th Floor East Conference Room at 5:00 PM on Monday, January 28th. It will be essential to continue to get citizens from every part of the Commonwealth out to demonstrate widespread support for the HB 1430, The Boneta Bill. Please join us on Monday, January 28th at 5:00 PM and stand beside Martha Boneta and Delegate Scott Lingamfelter as they fight to get this bill out of the committee and on the House Floor for a vote.

Written Comments
In addition to joining us on Monday, January 28th at 5:00 PM, we will be collecting written emails which you can email me directly at slingamfelter@scottforva.com.  Send them to me and I will ensure the committee receives your emails.  Please take a few moments to write down your thoughts and let the committee know that you don’t want any level of government overstepping and limiting of our rights as individuals, small businesses, and property owners.

Democratic Mayors Take on Gun Manufacturers

Democratic Mayors Take on Gun Manufacturers

The National Conference of Democratic Mayors are now threatening to have their police departments boycott the purchase of guns from manufacturers who won’t adhere to the Obama Administration’s strictures.

The mayors are going to grade the manufacturers on their record of support vis-à-vis Obama’s plans for gun control, including universal background checks, the elimination of high-capacity magazines and sharing information on crime and mental health.
The leader of this crusade is Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak, who stated:
When we were lobbying on Capitol Hill, it became clear that our goal of trying to pass laws that make it easier to make our communities safe was going to be opposed by the gun and ammunition manufacturers. We recognize as mayors, we help fund that, because we are one of the largest purchasers of guns and ammunition in the country. So at the Democratic mayors meeting last night, we agreed that we would all go back to our communities, gather information from our police chiefs and procurement officers about how many guns and how much ammunition we purchase, bring that in from the Democratic mayors so that we have a common list of how much money we’re spending, what purchases are pending and who we’re buying from.
Rybak added that the group will join Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns to grade the manufacturers.
Rybak concluded:
Then we’re going to do everything we can as mayors to use … the collective buying power of many millions of dollars in guns and ammunition, to support those who will support common-sense laws and oppose those who are fighting us in Congress. I am not going to have the people, the taxpayers of Minneapolis, pay for people to stop the Congress from passing laws that keep our people safe. It’s especially galling, paying money from our police departments to produce loopholes that allow illegal handguns into my communities that could be used against police officers.

THIS IDIOT



This IDIOT is a hypocritical, many times disbarred lawyer, convicted of (luckily for him) misdemeanor assault many times.

This idiot has the unmitigated gall to lecture us about the dangers of guns.

This idiot has his thumb on the trigger of a rifle while brandishing it about a crowded room.

If he had been tackled to prevent this...he would have been upset.  Too bad that it did not happen.

Let's see....how many of the The Rules did he break....

1) Treat all guns as if they are loaded.  BROKEN

2) Point all guns in a safe direction.  How many did he sweep while getting the gun pointed at that ceiling?  BROKEN

3) Keep your finger off of the trigger until you are ready to shoot.  BROKEN

4) Make sure of your target and what is beyond your target. 




Furthermore, how is this idiot allowed in there with a gun when those with concealed carry permits are not allowed entrance while armed during Lobby Day?

Benghazi Four Months Later: Still No Justice for Ambassador Stevens

Dear Leader has cut a deal with the enemies of Christianity and Judaism and the dhimmis around him are telling us nothing and doing less.

Benghazi Four Months Later: Still No Justice for Ambassador Stevens
It seems we are not going to make progress until the Obama administration conforms this investigation to what we've known to be true all along--the attack on the Benghazi consulate was an act of terrorism. We must treat it as such.

Breitbart Editor Shapiro on 'Hannity' Tonight to Talk 'Bullies'

Breitbart Editor Shapiro on 'Hannity' Tonight to Talk 'Bullies'

 “In Bullies, Ben Shapiro shows once and for all that the left is the single greatest source of bullying in modern American life. Their goal: to shut down the political debate in the name of political correctness. Don't let them shut you up — read Bullies, and learn how to fight back!”
With the agenda being the fundamental transformation of America from a Democratic Republic to a socialist utopian wonderland where everyone, except the ruling elites, lives in equal misery and desperation.

Governor McDonnell Proposes Major Transportation Funding Overhaul to Inject $3.1 Billion into Virginia's Highways, Rail and Transit Systems in Next 5 Years

Governor McDonnell Proposes Major Transportation Funding Overhaul to Inject $3.1 Billion into Virginia's Highways, Rail and Transit Systems in Next 5 Years

I want to see the plan for ensuring the revenue from the added 0.8% is dedicated to the construction side of the transportation budget.
I like no gas tax. We'll never notice the extra few pennies this will add to our retail shopping.
It sets the stage for future elimination of other taxes.

American Thinker-Right on Point


We Are Being Played: Socialist Mind Game



We are being played; it’s time we learned the game.

Conservatives have their Constitution. Progressives have their Narrative. The current battle for America is between these two concepts, and each side uses different rules to fight it.

One set of rules is consistent with an unchanging objective: limited government and individual freedoms. The other side’s rules are as fickle as their goals, which are never fully disclosed beyond the equivocal references to fairness and hyphenated forms of justice. They will have to remain vague and deny their true allegiances until a time when American voters will no longer squirm at the word “socialism.”

And yet spotting them isn’t that hard. As a bird is known by his feathers, socialists are known by their Game.

First tried and mastered in the USSR, the Game has since been popularized around the world, assuming various forms, names, and colors — from red to brown to green. It is now taking hold in the United States under the blue web banners of Obama’s campaign infomercials.

The laws of society and human nature are such that socialism can only be achieved through a certain sequence of steps and manipulations. For instance, the only way to attain material equality is to confiscate someone’s property and give it to others. That necessitates a centralized mechanism of coercion, redistribution, and control. Such a system gives extraordinary corrupting powers to a small centralized elite, while turning the rest of the citizenry into a compliant, obsequious herd.

Americans Are Voting With Their Wallets On Guns

Americans Are Voting With Their Wallets On Guns
The bottom line: gun control politicians ensconced behind the wall of protection afforded them by armed guard upon armed guard are completely out of touch with the average American father who understands it's his duty to protect his family from danger; they can't relate to the single mom who sleeps with a .38 Special close at hand because she must protect her kids in the night; and they have nothing in common with the elderly couple whose home is no longer in the good part of town, and who fall asleep every night wondering if the gun shots they hear are getting closer.

But Americans understand. And right now, they're expressing their views on such things by buying guns and ammo, then meeting the legal requirements for concealed carry in their respective states.

White House Prepares to Defeat NRA with Speedy Legislation

White House Prepares to Defeat NRA with Speedy Legislation
Even though data, history, and facts show that a well-armed citizenry actually reduces crime and that no gun control laws currently on the books or being proposed would have stopped the Sandy Hook mass-murder, none of that matters. All that matters is handing Obama a victory and the NRA and the Right a defeat.

Two Americas: Gregory Not Charged, Iraq Vet Jailed

Whether its suspending a 6 year old for using his thumb and forefinger, assigning exceptions to certain elites while treating "regular" citizens as criminals, or ignoring rampant inner-city violence and drug gang activity, the agenda is to ban private-ownership of all guns. No American citizen will be allowed to have firearms of any kind. When this happens, America is finished. Wake up and smell whats being shoveled, America.

Two Americas: Gregory Not Charged, Iraq Vet Jailed
The terrible massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary has not only exposed the media's hypocrisies and biases with respect to gun control; it is also a revealing look at their priorities. There's no question Sandy Hook deserved every bit of media attention it received -- that's not my point. But what about the 532 homicides that occurred in Chicago last year?

There's little doubt most of those murders were committed with some sort of firearm, and that the victims were predominantly poor minorities. We also know that 2670 people were shot in Chicago last year.

Where's the media attention for the poor, powerless, predominantly non-white victims of all this gun violence? Where's the activism and outrage?

Well, there is none, because the media's not about afflicting the powerful or giving voice to voiceless or any of that jive. The media's really about protecting a powerful government, and should the media dig into Chicago's problems, that would mean taking on a story in which Republicans can't be targeted, nor can a lack of government largess or gun-control laws.

In other words, digging into the murder of 532 people means facing up to and publicizing the fact that when the Left's vision is fulfilled, it's not all that pretty.
But, hey, what's a few hundred dead black people when the price of doing something about it is as high as admitting you might be wrong about a few things?

Creating Criminals Out of Thin Air | A Soldier's Perspective

Creating Criminals Out of Thin Air | A Soldier's Perspective
Ayn Rand once wrote, “There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”

My good friend CJ expounds uopn that premise and explains what the ultimate outcome of Feinstein's Gun Ban Legislation will be.
