MAGOO AND GUNS

I was hoping to see some in depth fact checking but didn’t really see much so I’ll go with what I know. First I do want to comment on Magoo’s fixation on the 1994 assault weapon ban. I had heard that it really didn’t do much but he says otherwise. And like most things the devil is in the details.. All you need to know is that 80% of gun deaths during the timeframe were from handguns and so it’s difficult to assess how effective the law was.

I have previously ranted on his nonsense that only gun manufacturers have immunity from lawsuits. It’s totally false. As you are no doubt aware the Covid vaccine manufacturers have absolute immunity no matter have dangerous their placebo shots are, even if they kill you. Likewise you can’t sue the maker of the suv that was used in Waukesha.

You can sue the gun maker if due to a defect it blows up in your face and the automaker if there product is defective and causes you an injury. But guess what, you can’t sue Pfizer even if you can prove that they knew it was dangerous and ineffective and likely to cause you grave bodily harm.

His high capacity magazine nonsense was just that. So what’s the big deal if a psycho has to bring ten magazines instead of five? As most of you know, it takes maybe two or three seconds to switch clips. So this is just an irrelevant talking point that is meaningless. Likewise his emphasis on semi-automatic weapons is nonsense. Almost all civilian guns are semi-automatic and none are automatic. All semi-automatic means is that when you fire a shot the next bullet is automatically chambered but you still have to pull the trigger again to fire it.

And lastly, I was confused when Magoo claimed that more school kids died from guns than cops and soldiers combined. I thought that was nonsense since I have ranted about this before but unfortunately that was in the wake of Parkland and was at the end of my first series of rants which got erased and don’t exist anymore. However, I checked and I remembered correctly. Parkland was the last mass school shooting before Uvalde and I think there were 17 killed in each. Parkland was four years ago so that works out to just over 8 a year.

So today I pulled up a transcript of Magoo’s speech and what he really said was that more school age children were killed by guns than cops and soldiers combined. That’s a whole different ball game. That counts all the kids killed by drive bys and gang wars etc. it has nothing to do with schools but age.

I WAS WRONG TWICE

First he actually started on time but I didn’t know that he had Air Force One revving on the runway (actually it was Marine 1 on the Southlawn) to get his worthless ass to Rehoboth for another vacation.

He also didn’t mention cannons, but there was a point where you could tell he wanted to but switched to machine guns.

Tomorrow after all the fact checking, I will rant on his speech. I know that several things he said were lies but most of what he says is usually lies.

INTERESTING INFORMATION FROM A READER

Plastic and Fossil Fuels

​I have been wanting to write this for quite some time. Lets’, discuss some facts about the proposed “Green Energy”. While I am all for it, you can’t snap your fingers and expect everything to suddenly go “Green”.

​“Green” cleaning products were introduced to the cleaning industry in the mid 1980’s. To this day, “Green” products have a small percentage of the commercial market. “Green” disinfectants are flammable. “Green” floor coatings have acrylic ingredients –the magic word isacrylic (a fossil fuel product).

​The average price of an electric vehicle is currently $56,437. Only a small portion of the people in the United States can afford them. Retirees on fixed incomes can’t (I’m one of them). 

The infrastructure is nowhere near ready, yet all we hear is “Go Green” to save the environment.

​FACT: carbon dioxide has averaged 414 PPM for more than three years varying from about 405 to 422. If that number quadrupled it wouldn’t affect anything.

​FACT: Between Russia, China, Indonesia, and India a new fossil fuel plant is put online about every six to ten days with no controls.

​FACT: The EPA required US coal-fired plants to install scrubbers on the smokestacks of existing plants as long as go as thirty years. What we see coming out is steam.

FACT: China and India accounted for 50% of the increased carbon emissions in 2021

​FACT: Since 2005, the United States has reduced carbon emissions more than any other nation in the world since.

​FACT: Nuclear is the SAFEST provider of electricity and emits ZERO carbons emissionsbut we are not allowed to build any new plants at this time.

Do you have any idea how many domestic things are made from fossil fuels? The list is so long it would take me weeks to finish it. 99% of liquid containers are plastic with a tiny fraction made of glass and metal. Computer cases are plastic. Countless parts for automobiles and even credit cards are made from fossil fuels. Many household items are produced from fossil fuels. Look around your house and make a list of everything you see that’s plastic. Solar panels and windmills cannot produce any of the things you’ll find. 

​The lists continue in the commercial market. For example, floor coatings coveringmillions of square feet of tile floors use raw ingredients from fossil fuels. Most commercial cleaning equipment including upright vacuums have plastic casings. Trash cans, self-dumping hoppers, storage containers, trash bags, mop buckets, pails and various other tools for cleaning use resins that come from fossil fuels. We need to rely on and continue to use fossil fuels until we can find alternatives for the millions of items, we make from this source.

[None of the products listed above can be produced from wind and solar at this time]

FACT: Solar panels have a lifespan. They cost anywhere from $10,000 – $15,200 depending on where you live. In addition, not every location is suited for solar. You need an average of 4 hours of sunlight to make solar pay for itself. Even then, it’s an eight-to-ten-yearpayback. 

FACT: When I lived in Richmond, Virginia, a friend of mine built a solar powered home. Because the of the limited amount of power his solar panels could produce and store, he installed a fossil fuel powered backup system. 

According to experts, we have 100 years of fossil fuels here in the good old U S of A.

Other experts predict it will take decades to transition to wind and solar. Let companies develop new products and energy sources.

Here’s the breakdown of energy sources in the US:

Natural gas​​36%

Petroleum ​​32%

​Renewable Energy​12%

​Coal​​​11%

​Nuclear​​​  9%

Wind, solar, and hydro account for 12% of the energy grid. The full cost of wind power is 140 percent higher than an advanced natural gas-fired plant and over 70 percent higher than an advanced coal or nuclear plant.

​The cost to maintain a windmill exceeds the energy it produces. The government has been subsidizing and issuing tax credits to the wind industry since 2013. American taxpayers pay billions for these subsidies. No wind, no power – ask Dallas about that. When they are operating, they reduce the bird population.

​Solar panels and windmills have a lifespan. Where do we take them when their time is over?

​CONCLUSION: I agree we need to continue to build windmills and install solar farms. Let private industry create windmills that are more efficient and less costly to operate. An enormous amount of land is needed for even a medium size solar farm producing power.

It’s good to remember this stuff when you hear the left constantly pushing this green new deal bullshit. It doesn’t work and can in my opinion never work. A a general rule it takes more energy than it produces and that ain’t a winning strategy. Just remember, it’s really about a world wide socialist order!

And that gives me an opportunity to talk about this year’s World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland. I have been talking about these idiots since my first rants many years ago now. They have always been about using climate change to usher in a new world order although they have been somewhat more circumspect in the past. Christiana Figueres the head of the UN climate change group has been saying for years that global warming presents the best chance to change the economic model of the world — namely eliminating capitalism and replacing it with socialism. The thing that concerns me is that this year, these private jet owning carbon spewing hypocrites, openly said the quiet part out loud. Apparently they think they have won. I don’t know if you heard any of the Frankenstein dreams but they are sick. Not only do they want to eliminate free speech and guns but want to require you to get a chip in your body so they can monitor your every action and coerce compliance with whatever bs they want.

Listen, just because someone is wealthy doesn’t mean they know anything. Bill Gates proved that in spades during Covid. LeBron is wealthy and regularly proves he is an uneducated idiot. So don’t be fooled about the true purpose of the green agenda. It has nothing to do with the environment and everything to do with world domination.

PS Anyone want to bet on whether or not Magoo brings up cannons tonight? He knows it’s a lie but why should that stop him. Pretty much everything he says is a lie. He just thinks this lie is so clever and he’s so witty that he can’t resist.

PREDICTION

Just heard that there was a shooting at a Tulsa hospital and I spent some time in Tulsa on the Black Fox nuclear power plant. That’s not the point of this rant. Instead the shooter was black and so I think the story will disappear quickly on the msm. They only care when they can use it to further some bs agenda they have.

QUICKIE

I saw today that the head lifeguard in LA made $500K last year and that’s so ridiculous and maybe why they can’t take of the homeless. But the point of this rant is that I was a lifeguard and got I think it was $1/hr and many girls and several dedications on the local rock and roll station. Now lest you think I’m bragging, I truly believe that if you put a lifeguard t-shirt on Shrek girls would hit on him. Just goes with the job and I’m not complaining but would prefer the half million.

GUNS

I have listened to the left pretend that certain guns need to be banned because they are only for killing people and not game. Guess what idiots, guns are designed to kill whatever they are shot at be it a person or an animal. Any gun is meant to kill whatever it is shot at. That’s the point!

MAGOO AND NEW ZEALAND

I don’t know if you saw it but Magoo even had to read his brief remarks to the president? of New Zealand. If you can’t handle one minute without notes you need to resign and that applies to Schumer and Pelosi and most of the left. Give me a subject and I could talk extemporaneously on it for five or ten minutes at my age. These idiots can’t and shouldn’t be any where close to the levers of power.

JANET YELLEN

Is there anyone more stupid than her? I have previously ranted about the fact that economics is not a science but this idiot makes my point. She couldn’t find her ass with a mirror and a road map and when she speaks she sounds like she already died. The fact that she is considered a leading economic light tells you all you need to know about this scam.

INTERESTING FACT

I heard that one country and I can’t remember whether it was Russia or Japan or nazi germany or China that they would never try to occupy the US because too many of us are armed and would make it impossible to occupy us

And that’s why the left wants to disarm us because as long as we’re armed they can’t subjugate us. That’s the reason for the second amendment. It had nothing to do with hunting.

PS Now that I think about it I believe it was Japan in WWII
