Remember the post below about the German homeschooling family trying to stay here in the US? How the DHS and ICE wanted them returned to Germany….and the Supremes chose not to hear their case?

Strangely, DHS has reversed itself and granted them “Indefinite Deferred Status”.

SO as long as they are good, model visitors to this country, they can stay.

Strange, that reversal. Perhaps sanity broke out in the DHS….

They brought her back they had ordered her to testify, and had legal advice that she had effectively waived her 5th Amendment rights when she made her speech the first time she “testified”…

Others have been incarcerated for ignoring congress, (small ‘C’ on purpose) and for similar behavior have been held in “Contempt of Congress”.

Yet she walks today, a free woman.

Was this just a “show trial”?

Let’s face it, the RNC wants the Tea Party folks to go away nearly as much as the DNC does.

And I especially liked the rant that Cummings put forth in order to make a headline that drew eyes from Lerner.

ETA: The Outrider has an interesting take….

That Lois Lerner is supposed to spill the beans to congress.

1.  I wonder if she will?

II.  I wonder what she will tell ’em?

C.  If she does, how long will she live?

To give your name and then declare:

“I will NOT comply”.

(money quote starting about 6:28)

I think that if the Connecticut boys in blue choose poorly that there will be a real mess.

Randy Weaver got screwed because he was alone and isolated.  No one to help. By the time we all saw what was happening, they had the situation nailed down.

What will happen  if you are in Connecticut when you see your neighbors home besieged by the police…..Or hear a noise at night and see the SWAT team stacked up outside his door?

You know you are gonna be next.

So either you run (or hide) or take a stand. Stand on principles or watch your neighbor taken down….Live louse or ….?

Which will you choose?

There are more gunowners than cops to take them away….but alone you will fall….

You can make a difference when they are at your neighbor’s door…you are in their rear….they aren’t looking at you…

When enough don’t come home, they’ll get the message.

Will you take a stand? Remember, body armor…Aim high or aim low….

I fear that for our brethren in Connecticut, the time is coming when they will have to choose.

And I don’t think anyone is gonna like the outcome. 

I am SO glad I live in Indiana and won’t, for the near future at least, have to make such a decision. 

Illegally

And if they spoke Spanish….

German Home Schooling family faces deportation after supreme court denies hearing

So a German family flees to the US because they are persecuted by the German Government due to the fact that they choose to homeschool their kids rather than place them in State schools..

They apply for asylum here in the US in 2010. THEY DO EVERYTHING LEGALLY.

They have another child here in the US….(“Anchor Baby”?)

The Obama administration changes their minds after initially granting them asylum on grounds of religious persecution.

ICE changes their mind in 2012. Tells them they have to leave.

They appeal.

Supreme Court chooses not to hear the case.

Now, I wouldn’t bring this up, except that there are THOUSANDS of Mexicans who ILLEGALLY entered this country and who were caught after spending YEARS here who have NOT been deported….who are encouraged and allowed to stay here…..even though they entered and stayed illegally….and whose cases are being ignored by ICE and other relevant agencies.
 

Double standard?

I see this as a human rights issue….they are being persecuted and fined for not sending their kids to the State approved schools in Deutschland ….

If we let all the illegals stay, then we should let these people stay. They, at least, did everything legally and are, by all reports, model citizens.

Not so with some of the other cases.

But they are, apparently, not brown enough.

Perhaps they should learn to speak Spanish. Maybe move to California or Arizona….Or Chicago.

or at least the first 50 or so to take me up on this:

If you can find a legal way to get your “Assault Rifle” and or High Capacity Magazines or other banned (but previously legal)  firearms into my hand, I will offer storage in a safe, controlled environment. They will be stored in the same environment that my personal firearms are stored in

Insurance against fire and such is still up to you.

You can come and visit them at any time with a bit of notice. We even have decent ranges fairly close by so you can exercise them.

This is not an offer of storage forever, but only until you can either get the law repealed or move out of the state to a more congenial environment.  I should be at this location for at least another 2 years….

Email me for other details.

Jut tryin’ to help.

Is *YOUR* church BATF approved?

Let us never forget that on Feb 28th,1993 the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms chose to attack a peaceful compound of religious “fanatics”.

This ultimately ended, 51 days later, with the death of 76 men women and children..

Look up the details yourself, Wikipedia has part of the story. Take the time to learn more.

What it ultimately comes down to is, that much like the Randy Weaver saga, the government departments (and individuals therein) went Way too far, and when people resisted, they brought the full weight of the Federal government down upon those unfortunate to be in the crosshairs. People who resisted died because they were targeted by rouge, undertrained, and unsupervised agents of the Federal agencies.

The fact that these events happened is bad enough. THe fact that these agents and their supervisors and THEIR supervisors were, essentialy, unpunished.

And WE as a nation allowed the events to happen, watching breathlessly on TV as events unfolded….And we let these agents get away with, essentially, murder.

Think about it.

And we are allowing such things to happen again….Think Fast and Furious. If you don’t know what I am referring to, Google “Operation Fast and Furious”….

If you aren’t angry yet, you should be.

Someone pointed out to me today:

“I am NOT a racist….I intensly dislike Obama’s white half as well”.

I really couldn’t argue.

But it hurts when coffee comes out of your nose.

THen open THIS window and watch!

Unless you are white and it offends a minority.

Especially if it happens on a made up minority holiday

Look: I understand that the school just wants a peaceful day, with no fights or violence. THat the Mexicans are making trouble about Hispanic culture and that the school just wants to make it go away…
Too fucking bad. The minority mexican students can go back to mexico if they don’t like it. THis is the US of America.  Wearing a US flag should NEVER be illegal or against the rules in the United States. (the Mexicans get to wear the Mexican flag, but that is ok and not judged provocative)…To me, anywhere outside of Mexico, it is just a rag…as it should be with any flag outside of the country which it represents.

The judges need to be recalled and then horsewhipped.

The school administrator needs to be fired and barred from ever working in any administrative capacity ever again.

but then again, it be Kalifornia…
