I was struck by the attitude of this woman (as linked by Insty), who feels that Trump supporters should be put in a large room, like a gas chamber.  (She doesn’t actually advocate dropping the Zyklon-B crystals, of course;  she just wants to see Trump supporters wail and grovel.)

Of course, she’s living in some benighted delusion, unencumbered by the reality of what she’s suggesting.  It’s actually laughable, for all the right reasons:

• That’s a big-ass room she’s talking about.  Even something the size of, say, Madison Square Garden would only hold about 25,000 people — of approximately 60 million Trump supporters.  I suppose she’d want to round up Trump supporters on a piecemeal basis, which leads us to:
• Who is the “we” she’s talking about?  Who, exactly, is going to do the rounding  up?  The police?  The Army?  Has she considered the possibility that Trump’s support among these agencies might make them reluctant to go to a Trump-supporting household and politely ask us to go on a little one-way journey?  Of course, that reluctance may also manifest itself in fear for their lives, because of the next point.
• We Trump supporters, by and large, may constitute the single-largest group of armed civilians on the planet, and would probably decline the offer of a trip to MSG from some ill-defined  Totenkopf agents.
• Clearly, some kind of universal disarmament program must first be enacted, which in itself would be somewhat interesting.

Really, what she wants to see is Trump supporters cower in fear.  I wonder if she’s ever considered that we, as a group, are not especially fearful people?

So here’s my simple suggestion.

Even for someone as deluded as this AWFL, some testing needs to be done first, to ascertain the feasibility of what she’s advocating — a sample study, if you will.  Let’s see how disarmament and deportation to Madison Square Garden works out for them.

I will quite happily sign on to be one of the sample group.  In other words:  start with me, bitch.

Of course, what her little tirade shows is the actual depth of hatred these people have for us conservatives.  Fine:  let them hate away all they want.  But she and all her little cohorts need to understand that hatred alone will not be sufficient to enact what she’s suggesting.

But reality was never a strong suit of leftism, anyway.

Ask me again why I always carry when leaving the house — and especially when going shopping:

Terrified mall-goers ran for their lives on one of the busiest shopping days of the year after a gunman opened fire in West San Jose, California.

Horrifying videos and photos showed shoppers in Westfield Valley Fair Mall taking cover and running for shelter at around 5.40 pm local time on Black Friday.

Hundreds of bargain-hungry customers ran for the nearest exits or hid behind piles of clothing and mannequins as panic swept through Westfield.

More footage showed people flooding the sidewalks and escaping past a storefront with shattered glass strewn onto the pavement outside the mall.

Police confirmed that three victims, two adults and a 16-year-old girl, sustained gunshot wounds and have been taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Then, of course, there’s the usual useless advice:

Security advisor Patrick Fiel, the founder of PVF Security Consulting, told the Daily Mail that people should be especially cautious while holiday shopping.

‘Being extra vigilant this holiday season will help keep you safe. Always trust your instincts and report any and all suspicious activity,’ he warned. 

‘Law enforcement agencies across the nation have reported an increase in calls during the holiday season, which is partially attributed to shoppers placing greater emphasis on gift selection rather than personal safety.’ 

In the event of an active shooter, Fiel has advised the public to ‘run, hide and fight.’  

‘Getting away from the attacker is the top priority. Leave your belongings behind and get away,’ he wrote. 

If you are unable to evacuate, Fiel said to look for a solid place to hide, preferably somewhere with a barrier between you and the attacker. 

Fighting the assailant is the absolute last resort. But in the face of danger, Fiel has urged people to be ‘aggressive.’

‘Recruit others to ambush the attacker with makeshift weapons like chairs, fire extinguishers, scissors, books,’ he suggested.

Books?  Well, they say that the pen is mightier than the sword;  but I’d take nine rounds of .45 ACP over a thousand words, any day of the week.  And the only assistance I need is for people to stay out of the line of fire.

But maybe I’m being too aggressive and stuff.  Far better to cower in some store and hope the asshole doesn’t choose me for a victim.

“Security advisor”, my aching African-American ass.

From SOTI:

“A recent report from a United Nations Fact-Finding Mission paints a grim picture of Maduro’s Venezuela, especially after stealing the election in 2024, asserting violence, torture, arbitrary detentions, deaths in custody, deaths of protesters, sexual violence, forced disappearances, foreigners as hostages, etc.”

Ummmm lemme see:  an actual Communist dictator is doing all these terrible things, right?

Our own Commies just wish that Trump, who to them typifies all the above Bad Things, actually behaved like Maduro so they’d have something to really complain about.  But of course he doesn’t do any of that, despite the many calls from people like myself to start the one-way helicopter service already.

A “forced disappearances” thing sounds pretty damn good from where I’m standing — but no doubt someone’s going to have a problem with this.

All I can say is that if I owned a chopper and had a pilot’s license…
