Stupid government – Theft by government
Louisiana: Store chain stopped from selling cheap milk
(Daily Caller) Louisiana state regulators recently cracked down on a supermarket chain’s weekly promotional deal because it was selling milk too cheaply — which violates state law. The upscale Fresh Market was selling gallons of milk for $2.99 as part of a weekly promotional deal. Louisiana requires that retailer price markups be at least six percent above the invoice and shipping costs of the product.
Nathan: I am SO glad that we have government to protect us from evil scams like loss leaders on milk and other things that save families a few bucks. Aren’t you?

Arizona: Teen not guilty in food-fight assault
(AZ Family via Freedom’s Phoenix) After reviewing cell phone video and hearing from witnesses, a judge ruled that a teenager involved in a food fight at Horizon High School did not assault a teacher.
Conner Floyd was a freshman when the food fight — a senior prank — broke out in June. He was tackled by a teacher as he tried to leave the cafeteria. That teacher claimed Conner assaulted him. With that allegation and support for the teacher from the school, the teen was charged with aggravated assault — a felony. “I was in defense mode, I was in fetal position, I was shocked… I’m on my back getting hit in my left side right in the gut,” Floyd, who now attends a different school, told Carina Sonn in September…. “During trial the Court heard not only eyewitness testimony but also reviewed the video of the incident and still photos which appear to depict the Assistant Principal kicking Conner while the Teacher had Conner pinned to the ground with his knee dug into his shoulder,” wrote Jason Lamm, Conner’s lawyer, in a news release.
Nathan: So, when are the charges being filed for aggravated assault against the vice principal? And how long will he spend in prison for filing a false police report and false accusation? Of course… not now, not ever.

Rep. Franks: Obama Made Case for Ending Abortion at Sandy Hook Prayer Vigil

Nathan: But you must remember, Obama and the rest of the people who want to kill in the womb DO NOT THINK THAT the unborn are HUMAN. Some would say that anyone under the age of 1 (or 2, or 3) is NOT human: which leads to the result that if this had been a preschool and 20 children died, not 1st and 2nd graders, that they would not have cared. If they really do care about children other their own elite children now, they certainly don’t care about Afghani or Pakistani or Egyptian or Libyan or Syrian children. Just like their predecessors (and spiritual ancestors) didn’t care about AmerInd children (“nits make lice”) or Filippino or Cuban or German or Japanese children.

Five common misconceptions about gun mass shootings
(The Blaze) “We tracked 62 mass shootings wherein 5 or more people were either shot or killed from the early 1980’s to now; 41 times pistols were used, 12 times shotguns or some type of hunting-styled rifle was used, and 9 times semi-automatic rifles were used (14 percent),” Hunter told TheBlaze.
“Of the 62 incidents that we were able to track, 42 of the shooters had some kind of mental illness or mental illness history of some kind, 16 of the shooters had unknown or unclear history of mental illness, and only 4 of the shooters had no mental illness history.
“According to the FBI’s website, during the time period between 2007 until 2011, there were 8,967 people that were murdered with knives or cutting instruments; during that same time period, there were 3,918 people that were murdered with either rifles or shotguns,” Hunter told TheBlaze.
“According to the FBI’s website, during the time period between 2007 until 2011, there were 2,918 people that were murdered with blunt objects (baseball bats, hammers, etc.),” Hunter reminds us. “During that same time period, there were 1,874 people that were murdered with rifles.”
“Another gun law isn’t the answer,” Hunter flatly states. “Nationally, there are currently 243 pages of federal gun laws and 480 pages of state gun laws in effect.”
Nathan: I am quoting a lot more than usual from this story, because this is valuable information that lovers of liberty can use to counteract the lies filling the airwaves and the printed pages and web pages today. People kill other people: they use anything and everything they can. People can defend themselves against other people trying to kill them, and do so every day. An eighty-pound child or ninety-pound grandmother can’t really defend themselves against a 250-pound man with a baseball bat or fists. The most effective way to do so is WITH A FIREARM.

Buy Guns On The Cheap At Gun Buybacks »
(Personal Liberty) Seattle gun enthusiasts, realizing that Americans willing to hand over their firearms for such little money often don’t know what they have, were drawn to a recent gun buyback.
Nathan: Hmm. This seems like a very good tactic, used with plenty of people and recording equipment to protect against the rage of cops and hoploclasts who will be insanely angry over losing the chance to destroy guns. I’ve decided that these buyback/destruction events have become to the anti-gun movements what abortion is to the Tranzi “feminist” and “pro-choice” movements: something akin to sacrificing children to Moloch or burying food and treasure with their dead monarchs. Sick, and so I’m glad to see people fighting back.

DHS warns of hack threat to network gear
(Reuters via Freedom News Daily) “The Department of Homeland Security urged computer users on Tuesday to disable a common networking technology feature, after researchers warned that hackers could exploit flaws to gain access to tens of millions of vulnerable devices. The U.S. government’s Computer Emergency Readiness Team, on its website, advised consumers and businesses to disable a feature known as Universal Plug and Play or UPnP.” [editor’s note: The usual DHS over-reaction; sensible users pay attention to what is being downloaded, while their virus-protection programs warn them of dangerous downloads – SAT] (01/29/13)
Nathan: Gee, is DHS getting hard up for ways to prove its relevance? Not only is this an over-reaction, as Steve T. points out, but it is NOT in their mission statement, and is a bad idea to boot.
