What should a free man do?

Writer's cramp

I've read so many comments at so many blogs and news sites over the past few days about the Fort Hood shooter; people bantering back and forth about how horrible it is that Muslims ~ hereinafter referred to as disloyalists ~ are permitted to stand on American street corners and preach hatred toward the United States ~ and most of the banterers are not willing to do anything other than shake their little pudgy cyber-fists in front of computer images of these Islamo-thugs and hurl threats they need to hush.

 

Seditious, slimey savages.

Okay, then; had enough of these seditious "revolutionary" punks? Oops... disloyalists.  Instead of just whinin' about it, maybe it's time you got involved in the battle for freedom. Your choice, as always.

These disloyalists don't have more rights than you or me, they're just not afraid to take advantage of those rights, smack-dab in your face.

Here's what you might want to do if you decide to take a stand: Find out what the local  laws are pertaining to sidewalk demonstrations or speeches.  If you need a permit, you might be able to get one on-line. You also might be able to see who's been granted permits, what they're for or against, and where/when they'll be. You'll probably be interested in demonstrations/speeches by ... disloyalists, eh?

Know your local laws having to do with assault, harassment, threats, disorderly conduct, weapons carry/concealment, brandishing a weapon, and use of deadly force.  You need to know when the disloyalists are violating your rights and committing the first four offenses against you so you can notify cops, and have some idea if you can respond in kind ~ can you hit them back if they hit you ~ if they spit on you can you punch their fuckin' lights out. Some jurisdictions allow for "fighting words", understanding that there are words that can be said which legitimately provoke a man to strike another. Does your state have those laws? You need to know. You also need to know if you can carry a concealed weapon, and if you must attempt to retreat if threatened or if you can use reasonable force to stop the threat without looking for a getaway, and under what conditions you can take the life of another.

If you don't know these things, you need to stay on the porch... and stop calling yourself  Big Dog.

Everybody on the team need to know all these laws.  Team?

You're going to need, in my opinion, at least five people: one speaker, one flier hander-outer, one close protection person, and two counter-surveillance people.  

• Speaker stands as close to the disloyalists  as the law, available real estate and how the disloyalists are set up will permit.  Speaker simply reads aloud from a prepared text, over and over, in a clear, loud voice, at least as loud as the disloyalists are barking. Don't vary from the text because, if there is any complaint about you saying this or that to offend the tender sensibilities of the disloyalists, you can show the police what you were reading.  
• Flier hander-outer does just that: hands out fliers ~ the exact same flier from which the speaker is reading... over and over again.  Details in the text below.
• Sign-holders, carry only one sign and do it in your weak hand, keeping your strong hand free for self-defense.
• Guard does nothing but keep an eye on the disloyalists  from no more than 20' away, watches for signs of aggression from the "revolutionaries" ~ are they using comms of some sort to call in reserves, etc.. You need a cell phone/radio, maybe a weapon, gloves ~ try to get the kevlar-lined ones from on-line police supply sites. If you carry a hand-gun, plot your shots based on what's behind your potential targets and rehearse those shots in your mind. Only in your mind. Do nothing to appear aggressive or threatening.  Let counter-surveillance guy know if things are tensing up and he or she needs to start camera work/call cops.
• Counter-surveillance guys/girls, across the street behind the disloyalists, or off their flank no more than 100' away. Try to be inconspicuous.  You need a video camera, cell phone a/o radio, maybe a weapon if that's what you decide. Watches for more IslamoThugs coming to back-up their brothers, in which case you should notify the guard by radio, call the cops when/if you see that coming. Camera work when necessary. Know how to treat wounds.

Kevlar-lined gloves

If you choose to use signs and posters at intersections, you'll need:

• At least one sign-holder: holding signs, handing out brochures, answering questions.
• At least one close guard to watch sign-holder(s) and look for danger close. Guards do not hand out brochures or answer questions. They are watching for people driving up with weapons, vehicles that appear to be driving toward them with malicious intent, vehicles stopping and occupants getting out to head for the signers. Gunfire: push signers down/behind cover, which you need to identify before anybody lifts a sign. If your response plan includes returning hostile fire, you'd better be trained up, legal, and know where your rounds are going when you pull the trigger.
• Two counter-surveillance people a little way down the street. Watch for danger close to and approaching your team from all directions  ~ no more than 50 yards away from the signers. I'd put CS guys on both sides of the team, and behind if the terrain/situation dictates.  Warn the signers and guards so they can take evasive a/o protective measures. It might be good for you to have a first aid kit with some stuff for stopping major bleeding, as I suggest in this post right here. Actually, I'm going to suggest you hit that link and carefully read the entire post, including all the links.  

General thoughts:  

• It might be a good idea for the team to be wearing protective glasses to guard against spit, other liquids and thrown stuff. A change of clothes?
• Be sure you have with you all the permits and licenses necessary, including weapons permits if you intend to go armed. 
• Bring at least a hand-held recorder to tape confrontational chatter but be aware there may be laws prohibiting you from taping without permission from the disloyalists. Know the law.
• Get at least a pair of those little walk-talkie radios. They might be better than cell-phones for quick team comms.
• Don't move or touch the disloyalists' stuff. Is that apostrophe in the right place?
• Do not say Allah is not god, Mohammad was no prophet, the Qu'ran is not holy. That's just plain argumentative and that's all you'll get. And maybe a fight you don't need.
• Everyone on the team needs to understand they might end up in the hospital, jail, or dead because of what they're doing to confront these disloyalists.
• The team needs to rehearse before moving to contact the public. Rehearse what you'll do and say under normal conditions and if the situation goes bad.
• Be sure you're not followed on the way home. If you suspect you are being followed, drive to a police officer/station and report it ASAP.
• Never ever lie to the cops. Do what they tell you when they tell you to do it. If you feel it's wrong, get his or her badge number and report it later at the local station.
• If you are arrested, be sure to request fervently and sincerely that your name and address be redacted from any police report released to anyone other than another police angency.

Okay, after much searching, I found the website which has all the good stuff you need for making a public stand against these disloyalists, if you choose to do so.  Crazy Islam is right... here. Take a good look around and see the cool stuff and good info you can use in your quest, should you decide that way.

To give you a little head-start, questions for Muslims can be found here. 

And, you can find posters and signs to use at counter-demonstrations here.

Remember, you're not there to teach anyone a lesson or to shove anything down anyone's throat or play catch-up for Fort Hood or 9/11/01. Nope. You're there to offer the genuine truth to the same people the disloyalist liars are trying to reach.

Remember: what I've written here are just general thoughts and ideas I'd put into use if I was going into the valley of the shadow to stand up to some IslamoDirtbags. You may or may not use any or all of them ~ at your own discretion and risk. I'm not telling you to do anything. You decide and take responsibility for your actions, just like I do for mine.

Uh-oh...

There's arisen a question based on a thread at JihadWatch, and I'd like to try to give some answers that might help.  If you have any questions or want to add anything, feel free to jump in and get involved.

The scenario: one man standing in a London bank minding his own business when a veiled woman comes up to him, pulls down her veil revealing Anglo facial features and asking for help because she's about to be taken against her will.  Before the man can form a response or a plan of action, a group of men in Arab garb indeed do rush in and drag the woman off.  The man's left standing there.

First, Great Britain has had a stupid law against self-defense for many years, but I heard that law has changed. So, maybe it's permissible for Brits to arm themselves now.  If you are a Brit, let us all know here, eh?

Some basic principles to remember and build on, if you choose:

• Decide beforehand what you're going to do.  If that requires you check the local laws, then do so.  Once you've done that, you can decide if it's in your enlightened self-interest to obey those laws.  Am I suggesting you should break any law?  Not at all.  But facts in front of you might convince you, a reasonable person, that if you have a reasonable fear for your safety or life, or that of another, it might be best for you to go with the lesser of two evils: you carrying a/o using a gun vs. someone killing you.  It's entirely your call, not mine.
• Prepare yourself mentally by remembering that people all over the world do all kinds of horrible things to one another every day.  And while the statistical probabilities that one of those bad people will "happen" to you may be infinitesimally small, don't be complacent.  Murphy doesn't care about statistical probabilities.
• Prepare yourself physically.  Stay strong and alert, and unencumbered by things that might prevent your quick movement.

If you've got a group of bad guys coming at you to snatch someone, the instinct to grab and protect the intended victim is a good one.  Hold on and scream FIRE, if you can't see any friendlies around.  If people show up, either tell them to help you or to call the police. 

Yes ~ tell them ~ don't ask.

If you see friendlies, just scream HELP, and tell them to come help you and to call the cops.  Or to just call the cops and wait there until cops arrive. You might get lucky ~ they might actually help you.

Check the link to this site or this one or maybe even this one for some simple moves you can practice on your own, if you're so inclined.

If you're armed and you decide you're going to use deadly force, here's hoping you have enough bullets... and some hi-cap magazines.  While law enforcement SOP in many jurisdictions is now to shoot until the threat stops being a threat, eschewing the ol' double-tap, you as a private citizen might not have back-up on the way.  And, you might not have a hide-out gun on your ankle or another dozen full pistol mags in your cargo pockets. 

So, in view of the totality of that circumstance that drive your decision, you may have to conserve your ammo and settle for this: put about four quick rounds into the chest of the guy who's closest to you, or the guy who has the weapon ~ gun, knife, chain, bludgeon ~ if there's one in play on their side. Then, right away, put about four quick rounds into the guy next closest to you.  Remember that a guy with a knife who's within arms reach of you is a bigger threat to you than another guy 20' away from you with a gun.  Shoot the guy with the knife first, then the one with the gun.

Hey, these are thoughts that come from tactical doctrine being taught in various police academies in this country.  BUT, I'm not telling you to do any of them.  You decide.

Since I was asked what I would do, here goes: If I couldn't run with the woman, I'd get her under or behind me, I'd sit on her or get her into a corner and lean on her. And if she was screamin', I'd tell her to put a sock in it.  I would draw my weapon in such a way that the bad guys saw it, to give them one last chance to turn and walk away before the shooting starts. If they turned and walked, I'd stay right there until the cops showed up. 

If they kept coming, I'd take out the closest one first, and then the next closest one.  Then I'd put as many bullets into the rest of them as time and distance would allow.  I might have to reload in there somewhere, but fortunately I tend to be prepared in that regard. 

Once the bad guys were down, I'd probably move to a safer position, away from any shots they might want to fire or any other last-ditch efforts they may want to try in order to please their master. I'd wait there for the cops.  When they showed up, I'd tell 'em I'm the shooter, I'm legal, and I'm not putting down my weapon until the thugs in that heap over there are under control.  I'd keep my weapon with the muzzle down, not pointing it in the direction of any cop, but I'd not put it down until the bad guys were in irons or body bags.  But that's just me.

Then I'd place my weapon on the floor, because it is a fine work of art, not a Saturday Night Special.  And I'd cooperate fully with the investigation.  But, if the questioning began to sound like they thought I was a bad guy for protecting the woman and myself, then I'd invoke my right to an attorney and politely tell them I would answer no more of their questions.  In fact, if the attitude of any of my police questioners was hostile toward me, I'd ask immediately for an attorney.  After that, I'd find a lawyer who defends self-defense cases/shooting.

I'll catch up with you here later with some reading and DVD suggestions.

Speaking of church

A very good thread came up today over at JihadWatch and Marisol and Hugh made excellent, learned points.

By now, there are many wise comments there from the JW crew.

What's my point?

The woman in the JW post said she lost her religion.  So, some of you might try to help others similarly lost to find their way.  But if you do and before you do, you'd better know more than all the verses of Jesus Love Me, This I Know. 

It won't matter how quickly you can find Habakuk. Or if you tithe.

And you'd better not try to get someone who's thinking of giving themselves to Islam to come to your church.  That is insincere and will be an annoyance to them, at best.

When I was in Army CID school, part of the course of instruction was counterfeit US currency, taught by a Secret Service Agent.  He said that, to spot fakes, they don't study every facet of every fake they come across.  They study the genuine article so they know what's real, so knowing what's pretend takes just a quick glance.

Some Marisol insight: Another aspect, on top of the fact that many potential converts are made highly suggestible by multiculturalist indoctrination, is the level of deception and half-truths in the dawa efforts themselves, which too many people aren't properly informed to question. Dawa often reminds me of timeshare sales pitches (listen to a short presentation and get a free trip!), or those ads in the Sunday paper that used to promise 10 cd's for $1 (or before that, 10 cassettes for a penny): They get their foot in the door with a promise of a lot for so little ("and no obligation!"), but pile on more costs and demands once they've snagged a customer.

It will help much if you become familiar with the basic tenets of Islam over at JihadWatch.

But it seems to me what will help the most is if you're able to speak from the core of your soul about the love and forgiveness of God... from your own experience.

Carry on.

A word to the church

I know about many of the 'ministries' churches make available to their members and sometimes to the "unchurched."

Singles ministry.  Kids ministry.  Homeless ministry.  Single parent ministry.  Alcoholics ministry. Prison ministry.  And, one I heard of lately... lost pet "ministry". Oy.

But I've never heard of any ministry at any church where there is a proactive outreach to let Muslim girls and women who fear for their lives know they can find shelter and protection there at that church or with church families. Nor do I know of any outreach to Muslim converts to Christianity who have been threatened or hurt, who live under a literal death sentence.

It's time for the compassionate ones to live it, not just talk it or have it preached to them.

Here is a good reason why the  mystical body of Christ, needs to stop some of the silly feel-good stuff and get dirty.

Here's another angle.

And another.

So, instead of just praying for them, maybe you can do something like this...

• Encourage your youth group to become friends with girls who are evidently from Muslim families, not to try to get them to your church or to get them "saved", but to just be a friend who'll be there if something violent is threatened by family members ~ a friend she can trust.
• In order to protect these girls or women, have a list of volunteers ready to take them in and shelter and protect them at any time of the day or night.  These families, and they should be families and not single men or women, should have a thorough understanding of the Muslim laws that permit honor killings and that commands the death of apostates.
• For older Muslim women who may need shelter and protection, maybe you could create some sort of flyer to post in areas/facilities with a high Muslim population which would be brief and informative, such as: Death threats because of your religion? Call 555-1212. We are not the police.
• Have the same set-up for Muslim converts to Christianity, male or female, who may need to run for cover.
• Have current contact information for the law enforcement agencies who have jurisdiction over the place where these threatened women and converts live, from whence they are presumably fleeing; and the law enforcement agencies in the jurisdiction where they will be sheltered. Make contact with the local law enforcement agencies you may have to deal with and let them know you're setting this up, but have no intention of looking for customers, just to be available if customers come to you.

Any more ideas? Something your church is already doing?

That makes it four

Not much to say about this barbarism ~ the horror speaks for itself.  The headline, Police: Arranged marriage led father to kill daughter, is misleading.  Islam led him to kill his daughter.  Period.

9 July '08 update here.

So, what can we do?

If you're a scared Muslima, click here and see if you feel comfortable with the suggestions I've offered.  If you do, then let me know and I'll do what I can to help.

If you're not aware of what honor killings are,  go here and here  and search the phrase honor killing for a thorough exploration and understanding of the subject.

If you know about honor killings, or just care about women being abused a/o killed, perhaps you'll consider writing me here and by doing so, volunteer to take in a threatened Muslima, should one need help in your area.

Or, create some sort of online presence so they can find you, or bump into you online, by some serendipitous something-or-other.

Lastly; as much as our sensibilities may be enflamed by these murders, and I think they should be, letters to the police won't help.  The woman is already dead.  There is nothing more for the cops to do.  Expend your time and energy where it will do the most good.  The prosecuting attorney for the jurisdiction in which the case will be tried is the one who may need some polite encouragement from you.

Maybe it would be a good idea to press your elected federal legislators to enact laws controlling immigration from countries that have a history of abusing their women.

Okay, let's go save the world, eh?

Briefly

Go ahead and read this first.

Now read this.

Okay, now listen up: it is not the responsibility of the US government or your state, city, county or tribal government to provide you with affirmative protection.

What does that mean? 

It means, if they have a police department, they don't have to do anything with it... just like that treadmill you bought.

It's up to you, unerschrocken. 

Learn here.

Train right here.

Okay, now get back to work.

No holocaust here

The pictures of Amina and Sarah Said, and Methal Dayem, which are posted here, are meant to stir a response.  But not just to get you yelling and pounding your fists on the table.  I hope it lights a fire under your righteous anger and that you let that anger drive you to do something other than write at this and other blogs about the barbarity of these 'customs'.

My focus at this blog is on American girls who are slain under the principles of this so-called religion of peace.  But I add this story out of Australia to show evidence that these savages don't care where they are on the earth. They don't care what the rules are unless they're sharia rules. They don't care if Westerners call it murder. 

They could not care less. 

They will continue to slaughter their women because it's how many Muslim 'men' are wired.  But let's not pretend they're crazy and an insanity defense, within the framework of our legal system, would be appropriate.

They're not crazy. 

In the core of their souls, some Muslim fathers believe their daughters need to have their throats cut for sins such as coming home late, wearing jeans, falling in love with someone from another religion. 

And some Muslim mothers believe it's their duty to help bring honor back to their families by assisting in these vicious murders. As if they had honor in the first place.   

In the smartest part of their brains, some Muslim brothers are certain it's entirely rational for them to attack their sisters with fists and feet, knives and rope, bullets and blunt instruments... and leave them in a bloody heap. 

But they're not crazy.  They're certainly wrong, but not insane by any legal or psychiatric definition.  They are evil. 

In addition to being sane and evil... they're here.

More and more Muslim women will be attacked and killed by the men who are supposed to love and protect them... as long as we let it happen.

And this story tells us clearly how UK authorities, and eventually those in the US, will let not only murders like this continue, but also any kind of thuggery and brutality these kinds of people wish to inflict on whomsoever they don't like.

Don't let it happen here.  

Update: Take a look here at how a UK taxi driver essentially became a bounty hunter, tracking down Muslimahs who had left their homes and families to escape terrorization and possibly death at the hands of their loving kin. 

... or get off the pot

Here is a report on how things are, post 9-11, still not what they ought to be. And here is an update as of 3 Sep '11.

So, the threat's still there, though non-specific and non-credible... or is that in-credible. However that gets said, the real question is as always: what are you going to do?

What are you going to do?

Bitch because the government isn't doing everything right? Whine because they don't do everything according to your schedule? Bitchin' and whinin' can bring to pass some results over time but what about the personal angle?

How about you do something to provide for your own security, safety and for that of those you love?

If we're just talking about flight schools, maybe these ideas need to be considered and put into action ~ without waiting for the government to tell you, or give you permission.

• If you own or operate a flight school and you have students or applicants about whom you are suspicious, then report your suspicions ASAP to the FBI, the FAA and to anyone in law enforcement who will listen.
• If you're afraid you'll be sued for reporting your suspicions, then sell your business to someone with balls.
• If you see secrutiy officers who are not doing their jobs at airfields and airports anywhere and of any size, report them immediately as high up the chain of command as you can get at that time and place.

Observe what is there in plain view to see and report it ASAP, accurately and completely.
