Royce explains the incremental steps leading to tyranny and iron-fisted rule by power-mad governments, using Australia and their latest string of civilian disarmament laws that includes (wait for it)...... licensing of paintball guns(!),.....and regular mental health exams for gun ownership (of the few types of guns they're "allowed" to own, that is).

And, they're also banning machetes from civilian ownership, unless they have a government exemption.

Only the facts about the second amendment (Royceover) And never ever forget that all gun control
laws are nothing less than overactive aggression against the American people and
their rights"
Exercise your rights in a safe way (Royceover) It's stupidity to think that someone hell-bent on violating the law against murder Will magically be stopped by a gun control law

♪ Royce Bartlett and the shooting straight show ♪ ♪ Let's go,
let's go ♪ - 

- Yes, we are indeed locked and loaded on the Shooting Straight Radio podcast. This
is the program about firearms, the second amendment and all things pertaining
pertaining thereto. I am Royce, your oh so gracious, huggable, lovable,
squeezeable host, a veritable super spreader of constitutional propriety,
pouring it to you from both barrels with 100 % felt recoil. We've got a lot to
talk about as always today because this is an endless supply of podcast material,
things revolving around and having to do with the Second Amendment. There's so much
going on. Our rights are always under assault, have been for decades, and we have a
big fight on our hands. I tell you what, a lot of this stuff going on in these
states right now, I'm going to go ahead and encourage all of you in all of the
Communist -occupied territories, and especially right now in places like Colorado. Y
'all need to go ahead and craft yourselves a resolution of non -compliance. I'm
telling you I believe they work. I believe they will work if you get about half a
million Residents of the state of Colorado matter of fact get as many as you can
get several million and you draft that resolution of non -compliance and you send it
to all of the Legislators up in the state capital and you send one to every police
agency throughout the entire state and you tell them we're done here's the line
don't cross it that's really where we need to do because listen we've been complying
with illegal laws way too freaking long and it needs to stop yesterday and you're
going to keep complying and keep complying and keep complying So you have nothing,
no means to defend yourself. That is exactly where all of this garbage heads,
yes it does. This is the end result of gun control. The first gun control law
passed is always the first step to the next. That's always the way it is. One gun
control, one gun control law leads to the next gun gun control law,
or so -called gun, let's go ahead and call them what they are, civilian disarmament
laws. Those laws are illegal in the United States.
They're illegal. They cannot be passed. Federal government has no authority to pass
any gun control laws, civilian disarmament laws. No state has any rightful authority
to pass any civilian disarmament laws. And yet, we've got how many of 'em on the
books these days? Well, over 20 ,000 of 'em on the federal, state, and local level.
So, this is the totalitarian disarmament playbook in a nutshell. That's really what
it is. It's one more gun control law, and then one more, and then one more step,
and which will, of course, justify the next step, and then the next step, until
Suddenly you have no rights. Okay? The compliance needs to end.
You hear me? We need to stop, cease and desist all compliance with gun control.
And we need to put all law enforcement personnel throughout every state on notice
that we the people are done with this crap. Does that sound extreme to you?
Well, I think you know it's more extreme than that. Is your government hurting you
into a camp at gunpoint? If you think that cannot happen, it's already happened in
this country. It's happened in multiple countries, especially some of the disarmed
countries, like we'll be talking about here in just a minute. But it's always one
more step, just one more and then just one more and then just one more. And it's
always the same batch of laws being played out in each state throughout the union,
especially in the communist occupied territories. So I guess my question to all of
you out there, are you done complying yet? They could, where do you draw the line?
If not now, it needs to be drawn. This is the playbook. This has been the playbook
for all of the communists and all of the the conquered territories here in the U
.S., New York, California, Washington, Oregon, New Jersey, and all the rest of them,
that's the playbook. One law needs to the next law and they continue to tighten the
screws down until you are unarmed and all you got left then is complain. That's all
you can do is complain. That's what you're left with. Maybe your voice and then
they'll shut that up too. I guarantee you that's coming too. It's already happening
in some of the Communist -occupied territories. It's happening in England, of course,
where people are going to jail for a Facebook post. People are going to jail for
even praying silently in front of abortion clinics.
That's where this country is headed. That's exactly where we are headed.
I'm gonna show you a working model of where all the other communist,
what should I say, communist conquered, not communist occupied, communist conquered,
and yes occupied, the territories in the U .S. and they're heading there at warp
speed. Now, most of us are already very aware of the massive gun bans in Australia,
right? Right, they land down under. And the existing tyranny that's going on there
now because of that. And that includes like the COVID camps they had. Do you see
any of that? You can Google that. You can look for that on YouTube and see what
Australia did to their citizens. And the citizens had no say in it. Why?
They're unarmed. Not only that, Australia has had a rampant surge of criminal
violence and police violence against innocent citizens. Police brutality is rampant now
in Australia. Well, that's funny. In all the communist conquered territories here in
America, that's the same thing. All of the heavily gun -controlled areas of the US
are the ones that have the overwhelming majority of complaints against police
brutality and excessive force. Now the people's guns in Australia weren't all banned
all at once because I believe their government didn't want to risk an armed
rebellion by the populace, but the few guns that the western Aussies were allowed to
keep are Now the target of new laws designed to strip even more of them from their
private ownership. And I'm referring to Western Australia, the state of Western
Australia. All the other portions of Australia will soon follow suit. I absolutely
assure you of that. Now we would think that, well, you know,
surely the Australian government has got to be satisfied that their citizens are
essentially helpless. So no need to take it any further, right? Not so fast.
How many times has it been proven throughout history that the end game of tyranny
is complete and total disarmament followed by iron fisted rule of the citizen class
by the ruling class? When the first gun control law does not enhance public safety,
as they claim it will, oh, will. Oh, we need another gun control law then. Yes,
one more. Oh, could we still have all violence is spiking? We need more civilian
disarmament laws because it enables crime to flourish and they know this.
This is not stupidity on their part. This is calculated. That gives them the excuse
to make another one even more stringent on, and so on, and so on,
until the end result is a completely defenseless citizenry that can be enslaved
easily through crippling taxation and ruled with an iron grip by an ever oppressive
government that spirals down into the madness that afflicts all oppressors and cruelty
will be the order of the day, because that's where this is headed. And here's
proof, um, excuse me, Here is proof, not from the land down under,
but from the land gone under because they have gone under. I'm going to be heavily
referencing an article from AMO Land Incorporated, which I hope you follow them
online. I think you should. But Australia is now doubling down on their civilian
disarmament. Now, you said, wait a minute, how can it be doubling down? I mean, the
draconian laws they have now are bad enough? Oh, no, no. Oh, some of the stuff
you're about to hear is going to leave you going. Are you freaking kidding me?
First of all, have you, let me just throw this in here. Have you seen the
Australian band guns flag? Well, no, Google it.
Go to Google Images, Google the Australian band guns flag. What it is,
it's a corruption of the Australian flag. All of the stars on the Australian flag,
which are in the blue field while the Union Jack is up in the upper left corner,
look at the stars. That's, you know that no guns allowed thing here,
that red circle with the black silhouette of a pistol and a red line through that,
signifying that guns are banned? Yes, all of the stars on the Australian banned guns
flag have that symbol on them. Now they implemented a firearm ban and also a
mandatory confiscation. Back in 1996, that was part of their national firearms
agreement. Agreement? Who agreed with it? The citizenry didn't agree with it?
No, the government agreed with it and that's all that mattered. And they destroyed
nearly 700 ,000 privately owned firearms. They were turned into the government and the
government destroyed them. The NRA had a statement about that at the time. I
remember reading it and I had to look it up again, but they said, "For those
intent on restricting freedom, "there's always one more step that must be taken. Amen
and amen. That's exactly the truth. Now, the state of Western Australia recently
crafted and then adopted what the state government boasts as Australia's toughest
firearms laws. That's the Firearms Act reforms of 2024.
And that takes effect at the end of this month, at the end of March. Now, notice
how they, like the communists here in the U .S., like to use the term "reform."
Yes. Oh, this is a problem and we need to reform it. Yes, it has such an
innocuous tone to it. A harmless tone. Oh, no.
We just want to reform things. We need gun form. Here in reform.
I'm sorry, here in America it's common sense gun reform. Well there's no such
freaking thing by the way. They used the term reform to cloak their actual
intentions like they like do here in the US. And tyranny began here in the US in
earnest in 1934 and they gained momentum in 1968 and Now,
the number of gun control or civilian disarmament laws, as I call them, exceeds,
like I said before, more than 20 ,000, yeah, 20 ,000 freaking gun control laws.
What has any of them done to curb violent crime? That was a rhetorical question
that you already know the answer to because you're smart, being you're smart because
you listen to this program. Okay, I'm sorry to pat myself on the back there.
But in the meantime, the Australian government, they've been running a gun buyback
scheme since February of 2024 for gun owners who will have to give up their guns
under this new law. And they've got a budget of $64 .3 million to make it happen.
So they're going to pump $64 .3 million
the the pockets and the pocket books of Australians in return for their freedom.
They're gonna buy that freedom from them, and they're going to institute tyranny in
its place. You better be assured of that. As of January and this year,
the government reported, the government of Western Australia reported, that
Approximately 52 ,000 firearms had been surrendered to the police and what they
referred to as the biggest reduction of firearms anywhere in the nation since 1997.
That's back when Prime Minister John Howard introduced his National Firearms Agreement
and Buyback Scheme. That's just like the word forms that word "agreement" sounds so
innocuous, doesn't it? Oh, it's just an agreement we have with our citizens. They
give us their guns, and we don't kick their door in and drag them off to prison.
Mm -hmm. Oh, we'll give them money in the process, of course, but if they don't, if
they don't let us buy their guns from them, we will come kick their door in, and
that's our agreement. At the time those laws were proposed, Western Australia's
government referred to those changes as historic firearm reforms that would not only
enhance community safety, of course, but here's the kicker, would reduce unnecessary
firearm ownership. Unnecessary firearm ownership.
You mean kind of like how the communists and their little counter -walling mugwumps
speak about gun ownership here in America? What do you need? With an AR -50,
what do you need with a gun at all? Sounds just like Fidel Castro when they took
over Cuba when he said, "I'm out of my spot, okay." "I'm out of my arms for what?
What do you need guns for. We're here. We'll take care of you. Yeah, I can assure
you that the totalitarian Twits in Australia don't care one bit about community
safety, as they said, but they sure do love to weaken their citizens so they can
be ruled more effectively and without fear of any armed resistance. I want you to
think about something, people. Where does tyranny always end. Never in the history of
mankind have tyrants ever self -reformed. Never have they said,
"You know what? We've been treating the people like crap here. We're going to go
ahead and turn over a new leaf and we're going to abdicate power back to the
people."
Never. Yeah. No, tyranny always ends with either a violent revolution by the people
against the government or not, I shouldn't say or, but and I should say ends in
gulags, torture, political assassinations by the government,
countless citizens being disappeared, like at the, in Cuba and other third world
countries. And by the way, people, that kind of crap has already happened here,
whether you realize that or not. Yeah. There's a lot of, I could run a rabbit
trail right now that would take us on for hours about what the Patriot Act did to
citizens in this country, but we don't have time right now. But these latest
regulations they're laying on the people of Western Australia include new licensing
categories. Well, you know what licensing does? Licensing empowers the government over
the free exercise of any right you might have. And these new licensing categories,
and it comes with new prohibitions and certain disqualifications and restrictions on
the number of guns an individual might be able to own there. It also includes
mandatory health evaluations, mandatory training. Does this all sound familiar?
And strict new safe storage requirements. Does that sound familiar?
And I tell you what, these laws they're passing in Australia would make the
communists here in America green with envy. Now for individual citizens,
licenses will be required for even competitive shooters.
Yeah. If you're a competitive shooter in Western Australia and you wish to
participate in shooting competitions, those can only be held by a licensed firearm
club at a licensed firearm range. And these licenses are limited to a maximum of 10
firearms for competitive shooters and the types of firearms are also dictated by the
government, of course. Now, a hunting license is required for anyone that wants to
hunt on land that the license holder has authority to hunt on. Oh,
and the land must also be registered with the government by the landowner.
Are you freaking kidding me? Are you grabbing this? Again, licensing does nothing but
give governments total control over the free exercise of civil rights. The maximum
number of firearms that can be licensed under a hunting license is five, and it's
restricted to firearms listed as a category A or a category B firearm.
The government of Western Australia has claimed that instituting these firearms
ownership limits was expected on their esteem to remove another 13 ,000 guns from the
Western Australian community. Yeah, you caught that right. Not from the bad guys,
from the community. Oh, That sounds kind of stupid,
doesn't it? Oh, it gets much more silly than that. I'm telling you right now,
it gets far more silly than that. You wouldn't believe-- I'm going to take a brief
commercial break before we get into the other part of this. Oh, don't go anywhere,
because the list of the retention squads are all on standby. And you know what that
means. So don't go anywhere. Be right back with more Shooting Straight. Hey

Let's create your musical identity. Thank you. Welcome back to the program.
We've been talking about new and improved, only for the government, of course, gun
control laws in Western Australia, the laying down and yeah,
and because the first heavily heavy gun control laws passed in 1996 apparently were
not enough and it gave them the excuse to pass more and more and more and the one
step leads to the next step and so on and we talked about that in the first
portion of the program. And we've been talking about the licensing now that they're
going to be, you know, exacting over the freedom of Australians to own firearms for
their own protection. Now one of those licenses, besides that we already talked about
the competitive shooters license that can only happen at a licensed arms club and a
licensed firearm range, and those licenses had limitations on them and a hunting
license, you could only have so many guns and certain types of guns and the land
that you hunt on had to be registered with the government by the landowner.
So we, this next category of licenses is going to make you go,
all right, come on, Roy, you're making this up. No, I'm not making this up. How
many of y 'all,
I'm having a hard time keeping from laughing. How many of y 'all ever played
paintball? Yeah, I played paintball as far back as 40 years ago when it first came
out. Paintball is actually, if you get a good team together, you can have some
great competitions. We used to have some cool competitions back when I was in my
early 20s and we would meet on this property and it had some canals that ran
through it and me and my team and it wasn't my team but the team I was on we
would take on all -comers and matter of fact we had a SWAT team that challenged us
one time and we smoked them faster than we did a Snoop Dogg concert because He
didn't, no, we didn't play fair. We never did play fair. And they complained about,
well, you violated the rules. I said, you're gonna do that when you got some
suspect barricaded. You're gonna cry 'cause he violated the rules and you gotta go
in and go after him and he kills one of your people. You're gonna cry about he
violated the rules. Ain't no rules in this boy. And, but I never thought for a
minute that a government would ever license paintball guns. But Here we are,
2025 in Australia, the land gone under, now forces you to get a paintball license.
Paintball license authorizes the licensee to use only a prescribed paintball gun,
and that for the purpose of participating in games of paintball, conducted under the
authority of a paintball business license. (laughs)
What are y 'all afraid of there in the government of Western Australia? No,
really, you're afraid you're gonna be overrun by a group of marauding paintballers or
something and they're gonna take over the country, they're gonna be a big
insurrection committed by paintballers, my word people they got very specific
requirements for the location of usage of the paint gun the paintball gun itself and
the paintball gun they said has to have a caliber of at least 0 .04 inches or
roughly 40 caliber and not more than 0 .6 8 inches which is a little larger than
the .50 caliber. So they're telling you how big your paintballs can be. What they
really did was measure existing paintballs and said, these are the only ones you can
use. In other words, if you start making bigger ones or smaller ones, you're not
allowed to do that.
And you know, I'm serious people, paintball license. You gotta get a paintball
license to own a paintball gun and you got it could only be used at a licensed
property.
Wow! Oh, what about a collector? Well, here in America, if you're a Curio and Relic
collector, oh well, then you can get a Curio and Relic licensed collector's license
here in America. Well, they got the same thing here in Australia. but in order to
qualify for their governments also gracious and magnanimous permission and license
these collectors have to prove that they are a student of arms.
You know that you have to be a scholar an arms scholar and you have to be a
member of an approved, government approved society of collectors. We haven't got that
are yet here in America, but mark my words, people. It could happen real quick. All
we got to do is give up our AR -15s and all the rest of its snowballs from there,
which is why I'll never comply with any kind of ban on anything from here this day
forth and forever more. And for all of you ATF agents listening to my program, I
will tell you right now, if you come to my home to confiscate my guns, you will
have to carry me out in a bag and I'm pretty sure I'll take a few of you with
me. Royce, come on man, you're talking about, just shut up. I'm drawing the line.
They don't have the authority to do this. Anybody that will come to your house to
take your gun is a domestic enemy of the United States and the Constitution and
deserves to be shot if they are trying to do that. Yeah, I said it, good, come to
my house and knock on my door and do a little knock and talk with me. I'm gonna
record the whole thing and you're not gonna like what I've got to say. So you have
to be a member of an approved society of collectors to even get a collector's
license. And each firearm, each major firearm part or firearm ammunition that you
already have or applied for has to fall within the scope of the applicants applied
interest, they say. In addition to that, the collection must meet defined collectible
firearm requirements. Oh, oh, but it gets better, wait,
wait, don't go anywhere, it gets a lot better. Western Australia will Now,
also require recurring mental health checks for licensed gun owners.
That's part of the licensing process, by the way. If you want to get a firearms
license, in order to get a license, you have to go through recurring mental health
checks. These checks, by the way, include a self -assessment form that they will send
to you and you have to fill that out. And then you have to take that filled out
form to your medical doc. Wait a minute, I thought you said mental health. You have
to take the form to your medical doctor who will then review your self -assessment
form. And he's gonna conduct, or he or she's gonna conduct a medical assessment of
you and your license your license with I'm sorry with you as a licensee I can't
read my own notes here come on Royce with the results which will be reported to
the police as to whether or not you the applicant meet or does not meet the
firearm authority health standards or meets it with certain conditions attached Are
you getting this now? You understand that this is just another step, people.
This is not the end all. This is the next step in Australia's tyranny over their
citizenry. Their totalitarianism is in full swing and it's going to get worse.
It's gonna get to the place where you can't even carry a pocket knife around
without going to jail for five years. Don't you doubt me, It's gonna happen
Yeah medical assessment for a Recurring mental health check Yeah,
you know the pictures of those Australians and those Covid camps come to memory
here. I remember seeing some of those videos and boiling with rage inside of me.
I Tell you what what? That fried my backside like a three foot tall flame.
If you're a new license applicant, you're going to have to undergo the examination
of part of that application process. But if you're an existing licensee, you're going
to be subject to health examinations incrementally over a five year transitional
period. Oh, if you're over 80, you had to go through that exam annually just to
own a gun. Oh, not just any gun. You can't own just any gun in Australia.
Oh, only type A or type B, whatever those might happen to be. I didn't get due to
the research on what type A and type B was before I sat down because there were
so many notes that I was going through. I'm like, good night. This is gonna take
two hours to go through. But Now, they also have new safe storage requirements.
Does this sound familiar? Now you understand why I rail against safe storage
regulations? There's storage requirements, and that depends on the type of the gun
involved, including paintball guns, air rifles, muzzle loading long guns,
tranquilizer tranquilizer guns and any handguns they might allow you to have. Wow.
Oh, but to make it easier for Western Australians going under to understand this
part of the law, the Western Australian police have been also gracious as to publish
a color -coded matrix chart that breaks down the mandatory storage requirements based
on the number and the type of firearms and whether the storage location is occupied
or unoccupied. And I'm sure this has something to do with officer safety because if
the location is unoccupied, they can kick in the door anytime they want without fear
of getting justifiably shot and take all the guns out of there. Easy done, easy
peasy as they say. This also contains additional instructions for what they call
shared regulatory compliant storage. In other words, a family could store all their
firearms in one large cabinet so long as they're made temporarily inoperable.
So other family members with access to the firearms cabinet can't use their firearm.
Of course, not to mention, listen, the mandatory surveillance and alarm system.
many in
separate security requirements that apply to firearms when being transported. And God
knows what those are, um, but those are mundane compared to, oh, this next one,
wait, wait, wait. You thought it was, uh, that was as bad as it could get, huh?
If that seems ridiculous beyond measure, the state of Victoria is ramping up their
machete Machete Law. Oh, and it's no longer just a restriction,
it's now going to be an all -out machete ban. A machete.
How many all own machetes? I own a couple of them. I own a Bolo type and I also
own a Kukri type. And yeah, they could be a weapon if that's all I had,
but it wouldn't be my go -to, oh, but unless I was disarmed by my government,
why do you suppose they're banning machetes? Because they don't want their cops
getting cut when they come kick their doors in, that's what. The government of
Western Australia proposed what they call the firearms and control of weapons,
and they even put in parentheses in this machetes. Amendment Bill 2024,
it is designed to restrict the use of machetes as weapons by specifically listing
machetes as a type of controlled weapon that could not be possessed, carried or used
without a lawful excuse or sold to anybody under the age of 18.
The penalty for carrying a controlled weapon like a machete without a lawful excuse,
which by the way, self -defense in Australia is not a lawful excuse for carrying a
controlled weapon. You face a fine of more than $23 ,000,
that's an Australian money, or a jail term of one year.
Ehrlinger this month,
The premier of Victoria, Jacinta Allen, announced harsher measures to reclassify
machetes as prohibited weapons. And she wants to make the sale,
possession and use illegal except for persons with government
exemptions. Isn't that nice? Just to own a freaking machete. Shetty. Now,
uh, hang on, it gets better. These regulations are supposed to take effect September
1st, 2025, although they're going to have an amnesty period between September 1st and
November 30th, which would also graciously and magnanimously allow people to dispose
of such dangerous hideous weapons by using your bins in safe locations.
In other words, machete drop boxes.
Well, after November 30th, anybody caught possessing a machete is gonna face penalties
that include up to two years in jail or a fine exceeding $47 ,000 in Australian
dollars, that is. Do you hear this? You cannot own a machete to trim the bushes
and the plants and the trees around your property. Oh, unless you get a government
exemption and have a safe storage place for it. Wow.
Now, if you think that's bad,
these machetes, they're joining a very lengthy list of already Primitive weapons,
of course, like automatic knives, what we call switch blades, non -metallic type
knives or ceramic knives, fortunately for anybody wishing to go to a picnic or
something. The plastic cutlery we usually take to such incidents, they've been
graciously, you know, what should I say, exempt, swords and slingshots and catapults
even, and tasers, crossbows, even laser tag, imitation firearms, extendable batons,
and acoustic anti -personnel devices. What would that be? A loud mother -in -law?
Anyway, and even pepper spray and what they call similar noxious discharge articles.
Well, I guess that outlaws beanie these two, the state government has not even
finalized the definition of what a machete is that.
They say it can be broadly described as a cutting -edge knife with a blade of not
more, I'm sorry, a blade of more than 20 centimeters. 20 centimeters is roughly
eight inches. So, if you have an eight and a half inch to nine inch knife, the
Australian government says, "Well, that might just be a machete." Oh, they don't know
yet because they haven't finalized the definition. Wow.
How can you write a law without the thing being defined?
Beining machetes without an operable definition of what a machete is,
is asinine. They should have been part of the original law draft.
If there's no definition, then they can simply take away whatever they want,
including the butcher knife off of your rack, and simply call it a machete, and
there's simply nothing you can do about it. Turning in a machete under their honesty
would of course be entirely voluntary. I believe that's temporarily voluntary.
They're not gonna offer any compensation in return. They're not gonna do a machete
buyback. And the government, quote, has not outlined any proactive enforcement strategy
to track remaining weapons after the amnesty period ends. You know what that means?
I'll tell you exactly what it means. It means they're going to soon register
machetes. There will soon be a registration scheme for machetes. Any of them that
have a government exemption, there will be a registration scheme. They will put
serial numbers on a freaking machete. Don't you doubt me on this.
I guarantee blank and T you this is gonna happen. They can still by the way
machetes can still be legally imported into Australia of course, because the federal
government, they haven't really instituted a nationwide ban or restrictions on these
things. But you can count on that happening soon enough.
I mean, people can circumvent this and go to other states within Australia and buy
a machete, but what's going to happen if they get caught with it? Criminals,
Of course, we'll continue to ignore the law. They will buy machetes, they will buy
paintball guns, those evil, also dangerous paintball guns and any other fricking gun
they wanna buy. And they will buy, they will acquire them, they will use them and
all the other prohibited weapons. And they'll do so illegally because it's funny.
I don't know what it is about criminals, but they seem to just ignore laws. I
can't figure out why they, I can't figure out why they're called lawless. Can you?
A former Western Australia police commissioner made a very keen observation and a
sensible one. He might be one of the few sensible people up there in the Australian
government, the Western Australian government. He said it's nonsensical because it's
going to, it's not going to make a difference to the problem of illegal guns and
violent crime.
Where is the rest of your family, sir? I think they all need to be in government
because you're one of the few that has any brains there. Premier Allen,
speaking of Victoria's new ban, seemingly ignored the role that the criminal element
plays in wreaking havoc on her state's residents and focused on scapegoating the
tool. She said machetes are destroying lives so we will destroy machetes.
Does this sound familiar? Over here, the gun control cartels,
the civilian disarmament cartels. What do they say? Guns destroy lives.
We must destroy guns. Birds of a feather flock together. Yeah,
it's not Yes, it's not the criminals with the machetes, of course. No, no, no, no,
no, demonize the object. And if you demonize the object successfully enough,
anybody that owns the object will be demonized by proxy.
You know, Thomas Jefferson recognized a long time ago, this very attitude,
when he said that, calls that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are
neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes, but it does nothing but make things
worse for the assaulted and better for the assailant. You better believe that's true.
I mean, anybody with the, like I said, the mental acumen of a cantaloupe can figure
that crap out real quick. The end of the article I've been referencing here says
making citizens more vulnerable increases crime, which in turn justifies the one more
step required to enhance public safety. Rents and repeat.
Rents and repeat. Now, this has been a humorous look.
Well, not so humorous at some
They've been a look at Australia and their idiocy. People that idiocy thrives here
in the minds of the socialists and the totalitarians. The totalitarians have evil
intentions with these aims, unlike their slavish little mugwamps who fawn over their
every word and take their word as gospel and repeat ad nauseam the same mattress
crafted by the civilian disarmament cartels here. And if you think that what happened
in Australia and England cannot happen here or will not be attempted here,
then you're not paying attention because it's already being attempted here. Look at
all the new gun control laws being proposed already in the heavily disarmed states,
Illinois, California, Oregon, Washington, New Jersey,
Massachusetts, et al. ad nauseam. This is their end game.
Their end game is total disarmament of the populace. And then once they have that,
they can pass any laws against you they want.
Bill and I talked about this on the 11th anniversary edition, Mr. Bill Mick, that
over in California, and also I believe in Washington state,
first they had a big assault weapons ban. No, I think it was Oregon, not Washington
state, Oregon and California, they had a big assault weapons ban. And it went long
after that they started passing laws that gave the state more control over your own
children than you because that is the end game. Total tyranny,
total rule, total enslavement via taxation and iron fisted rule over the people.
That is
Go ahead and cinch down our belts and we need to straighten our backbone and get
ready to stand up and point our finger at our local state and federal government
and say, you're not crossing any more lines. It ends here. If you come to our
house, if you come and try to tell us we got to turn guns in, we're gonna fight
you. If you come to try to take them from us, we're definitely gonna fight you.
But you are in for a fight either way. You have no authority to ban guns from our
hands, you have no authority at all to pass any of the laws you have passed thus
far, and none of them would survive a Bruin challenge anyway. And we're done.
Because if we don't, people, it's gonna keep going. Incrementally, step by step by
step, and each step, each civilian disarmament law is the catalyst for the next and
for the next and for the next catch on the next episode stay in contact with your
rips stay trained up stay armed at all times and never forget in coming rounds
always have the right of way Royce out
