No wonder take the guns first, due process second is sweeping the nation. It's a time-honored tradition - whatever it takes to meet goals.

Who cares? Lt Col. North was following the guidance of his elected boss as a member of the National Security Council at the time, not the USMC or DoD: You know, POTUS Ronald. R. Reagan, who ran on a platform to face down communism and literally won the 1980 election against Carter because of it? As in, Ronald Maximus Reagan's NSC? Yep-he was there because he was the right man for the job at the right time. His time as a young infantry platoon commander only shaped and developed him into the warrior this nation needed when the time came. Just because he wore the uniform of a US Marine Officer, doesn't mean he was operating in that capacity while assigned to the NSC. Understand? Fuck the communists in Congress.

I was still in college when the leftists in the news and even on campus became unraveled over Lt Col. Oliver North telling Congress to eat shit. It was beautiful. I later met him in 2006 when he was on a book tour in J-Action-Ville NC. I was proud to shake his hand-he's a great American. Most of us appreciated everything he did to bring about the fall of the Ortega regime in Nicaragua by funding the Contras (who were fighting the Sandinistas) and thus push back against Soviet expansion into Latin America during the Cold War. This, despite the Reds in the US Congress who did everything to undermine President Reagan's foreign policy of containing communism in the western hemisphere and who were sympathetic to Ortega and his leftist, pro-USSR gov't. Added bonus: IIRC Lt Col. North facilitated the sale of US weapons to Iran in an effort to gain release of American hostages in the ME. Those same weapons were used to kill Iraqis in their 8 year slaughter with the Iranians. This, while we gave intel to Iraq so they could slay the persians more efficiently. More dead arabs and persians all around. Now, who doesn't get wood thinking about the way he smote two (types of) muslims with one stone in a manner which furthered our interests both in the ME and in Latin America? The man was the epitome of what being a true American really is. Anyway, if the Contras murdered a leftists priest here and there because they were aiding the communist Sandinistas, then who the fuck cares unless you're a filthy communist? Fuck them. For any of you haters out there, I hope this makes you so angry you piss all over yourself. View Quote |

Furthermore, I know you think you're being exceptionally bright by bashing the NRA but in reality, you're a simple malcontent with little to offer just the rest of your fellow travelers. 5,000,000 members aligned against the radical leftists that want to disarm you, and you choose to feed your fragile ego by throwing a tantrum over a stupid statement that didn't really say anything. Here's a reality check for you: The NRA hasn't called for a "ban" on anything, and they're the only thing standing between being able to enjoy the freedoms we do now, or looking at airsoft as our next legal option to owning something that looks like a firearm. You disgust me. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

So the NRA will have a president that sold arms to Muslim terrorists. They can eat a dick. Ollie will be good company to the folks at the NRA that will sell your 2A rights down the river. I can support selling outdated weapons to Iran to kill their fellow muslims for eight years. Keeps them busy while Israel receives the advanced military aid from the United States to defeat either (ETA: Iran or Iraq).

Quoted: That coupled with Kraut's inexplicable and unexpected defeat at the ballot box...I think the NRA's on the way out, to live out the remainder of time as a mediocre vestigial organ of the RNC. Reform seems impossible. However, without a convincing "800lb gorilla" guilt tripping amd brow beating everyone in the room, maybe some of the *actual* advocacy groups like SAF or (even) GOA can finally get some sunlight to grow on and come into their own. It needs to be reiterated that the NRA has a large amount of "original sin" in its founding, as far as having little to nothing to do with Everyman Joe's gun rights, and everything to do with the country club. We have swayed it a good ways from that path, but the tendency has consistently been toward elitism, with a side of creeping disarmament. View Quote |

Have you anything but ad hominem and guilt by association, or do you have something of substance? I have no fear of our military, at the moment. I do fear a military that gets it in their head that they can do what they please if they think it's best, and the civilian representatives of The People be damned. If you don't, you do not and cannot understand how the military is supposed to interact with our civilian government. No need to put your insecurity and anger on display.

Quoted: Good thing the American Revolution was before your time; you really would have stroked the fuck out. Edited for god dammed autocorrect Fuck the communists in Congress. Besides, you're from CA. I don't care what you think. I had enough of you hand-wringing quislings when I grew up there, hence why I don't live in Cali anymore. Also, stop with the blasphemy. You'll probably regret ever doing so someday (like I do, even if I slip up and act like a disrespectful communist heathen now and again). Now go change your pants and undies. Nobody respects someone that walks about shamelessly after he's pissed their trousers upon hearing this traumatic news. Maybe you're a little testy because you know you're wrong? You know that the military isn't allowed to just go do whatever they please in direct opposition to the direction of the representative government elected by their people? Maybe somewhere, deep down, you know LTC North did something wrong and might not be the best face for the NRA? Opposition to communists is all well and good. Hell, killing communists is all well and good if that's what has been tasked to you. Those in power in our military doing whatever they please despite what The People's elected representatives say, is something very different and not really that much better than communism. I assume that unlawful orders are still okay to disobey, right? I don't recall the part in the Constitution that said the military could defy Congress as long as they were opposing communism. Congress may be wrong (certainly is and often), but it is essential for the military to remain subservient to civilian government. If you disagree, that's really unfortunate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKIJKQRb53o The whole thing is great. 8:20, I think, is where you should start. 7:45 isn't bad, either. Between CA and blasphemy, you've got a lot of redirection going on. Try to focus and stay on the point, yeah? Edited for god damned grammar (it's lower case, just pretend I'm invoking a different god). Seriously though, it amazes me how physical geography plays such a prominate role in shaping a person's false perceptions, no matter how incredulous. It's like an institutionalized collective hysteria. Just stop, please. I get it; you've been taught to fear the military because you don't and cannot understand how it interacts with our government at the executive level. No need to put your hysteria or ignorance on display. Stereotypes exist for a reason, BTW, and I'm embarrassed for you. Don't be that guy. You're not the constitutional expert you think you are. I have no fear of our military, at the moment. I do fear a military that gets it in their head that they can do what they please if they think it's best, and the civilian representatives of The People be damned. If you don't, you do not and cannot understand how the military is supposed to interact with our civilian government. No need to put your insecurity and anger on display. Liberalism in hard-wired into your DNA. Your posts are dripping with it, and tonight isn't the first time I've seen it despite the fact I've rightfully ignored you in the past. I'm neither angry about your progressive values on display here, nor am I insecure about your feelings IRT the civilian-military relationship in our gov't. I'm old enough to have encountered enough young people like you to know you'll either outgrow what I consider blatant stupidity, or continue to be the cliche you present yourself as now. Nothing I say will change that trajectory. As such, the bottom line is that you and your opinion are simply irrelevant to me. Thinking about it, you seem more concerned that the military presents a greater threat to our Republic than external threats that are openly hostile to our interests. Seriously, you seem to live in some weird, paranoid alternate reality and frankly, you're probably not mature enough to own a firearm. I hope you don't. |

View Quote You can *click* me, but I won't do the same. Much the same as you have noted, I have seen things you've posted in the past, but I continue to read your posts because I do respect your insights, your understanding of certain subjects and what you bring to the table. If you choose to discount anything I say because of where (in America) I live or because I don't agree with you, that's your business. You get to say that a LTC can do what he pleases, in violation of the law, to hurt communism, because he thought it was right, but you don't get to do so without someone speaking up and saying "hey, wasn't that illegal? Isn't there someone better who could be the President of the NRA?". You can keep calling me a liberal, a communist, whatever and I'll resist the urge to tell you "You queer, you stop calling me a ____ or I'll sock you in the face and you'll stay plastered" like my hero would have. That's only because of the respect I hold for you which is, frankly, wearing thin. |

Damn, a lot of hate in here for a true warrior and patriot fighting commie’s around the globe. The Lt. Colonel is good person that was a fall guy for the greater good. I’ve had the opportunity to meet him several times in the last 20 years, always humble and took the time to talk. The weapons sold to Iran were inoperable and deactivated.

A former convicted felon? Really? All charges against him were dropped in 1991. |

Quoted:
He was integral in conceiving and executing the sale of anti tank and aircraft missiles to Iranian dissidents and transferring the proceeds to rebels in Nicaragua. That second part was specifically against Federal Law written by Congress concerning Nicaragua, and perhaps larger a violation of Constitutional provisions which prevent the Executive from going to war independently in both cases. The destruction of evidence and lying to Congress came after all of that. The idea that he's put at the top of a Conservative organization is just another self-inflicted wound. And of course some people will defend him no doubt even though it's clear as day what he did. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
