A friend sent me this link and I’m stilling laughing! This has to be one of the best practical assaults on the anti-gun stupidity of the loony left that I have ever seen.

I have long warned that carbon “taxes” (which at first were but carbon credit programs against industry to allow the Church of Global Warming to swindle their way into the pie) were designed to stifle free trade and industry, in order to impose control and steal money.
Well, the first of the real taxes is being unveiled in Washington state.
A cadre of six Democrats in the state senate are trying to push through Senate Bill 6923, which is designed to give the state of Washington more money for alternative transportation, by adding a greenhouse gas tax to automotive registrations. It’s a scaling system, based on the Environmental Protection Agency’s estimates of the mileage your vehicle gets. 15 MPG or lower, $200-$240 extra every year. 15-25 MPG, $100-$180 extra every year. Over 26 MPG, $40-$100 extra, every year.
This is just the first in what I predict will become a national trend. Tax-and-spend liberals cannot pass up a good mythological disaster in order to increase the government coffers further. There is no environmental motive to this. The only motive is further control and monetary gain through fear peddling.
The Republicans have their War on Terrorism as the fear mongering tool of choice. The Democrats have Global Warming. Neither camp is trying to fix anything. Both are in the game for personal benefit only, by preaching global doom and gloom.
Just remember this: all laws are enforced at the muzzle of a gun. When politicians start imposing laws based on dubious science, they are doing so by imposing force against the People. With the latest lunacy the Neocons have unleashed on us with the TSA, Homeland Security and related nonsense, in an ever increasing paramilitary police state, do you want this force used against you over a still actively debated conundrum over CO2?
These trends start with licensing fees and end up in criminal code. The entire War on Drugs is currently fought over criminal code governing the sales of substances without a proper tax stamp. (Yes, you read that right.) What starts as a licensing fee, must be backed up with force if someone refuses to pay the fee. A single fee, never remains alone - more are added, more laws and more taxes - each must be backed up by force. Everything snowballs from the first act of resistance
When poorly formed scientific arguments are used to urge political action, it’s bad enough. When they are used to imprison people, or even kill them - which is the eventual course of all law as the regulators continue to try to “fix” things - we have reached rock bottom.

I’ve already mentioned the Papal lunacy heating up over exorcisms, but it would appear that Poland is bracing for a demonic invasion, due to the rantings of several professional village idiots.
They even had a convention of village idiots last July, with more than 300 exorcists gathering in Czestochowa, under the fourth International Congress of Exorcists.
Of course there are various recipes for demonic infestation, everything from New Age religions to Internet addiction, or so says Rev. Wieslaw Jankowski, with the Institute for Studies on the Family. One of the worst cases, according to Jankowski, was a woman who asked for a divorce just days after renewing her wedding vows during a marriage counseling session. Oh, the horrors! Only Satan could be responsible for this!
“According to what I could perceive, the devil was present and acting in an obvious way,” he said. “How else can you explain how a wife, in the space of a couple of weeks, could come to hate her own husband, a man who is a good person?”
Maybe because her husband is a worthless prick to her? After all, they were obviously having problems if they were in marriage counseling. Just because someone is forced into renewing their marriage vows for a marriage counseling session, doesn’t mean that there was feeling behind it, nor that there weren’t second thoughts going through her head. If this kind of thing is all these charlatan snake-oil peddlers have to support their loony ideas, then may their god help us all.
Apparently they are “still working” on this poor lass.
Exorcists claim to be careful not to treat those suffering from mental illness, but I think the unfortunate irony of the situation is that no one is being careful to keep those suffering from mental illness from “treating” innocent people.
