Yes, Trump’s Big Stupid Mouth Is A Real Problem
Today I posted at RedState: Yes, Trump’s Big Stupid Mouth Is A Real Problem. Quotable: “Let’s call a spade a spade: the problem here is a President who betrayed the Second Amendment yesterday with his every spoken thought.” Enjoy.

Patterico (115b1f) — 3/1/2018 @ 7:56 pmSo what does one do with the aurora, Tucson sutherland or parkland shooter, I’ll leave Las Vegas out for now because his signs didn’t easily present themselves.
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 7:58 pmFor the better part of a weak they hid the sheriffs willfully malpractice, which gets worse with every telling and it was symptom of the promise compact which is in effect in nearly 50 districts we know of.
This spontaneous march is the same astroturf we’ve seen a hundred times before
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:03 pmHe is a disgusting buffoon and he will never stop being a disgusting buffoon. He can take his Wall and stick it in his Gorsuch. IMPEACH!
nk (dbc370) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:19 pmSo what is your answer to any and all of those situations,
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:23 pmAll of these characters you can add the django cop and the Washington yard shooter shouldn’t have been on the streets, how do we prevent the next one?
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:32 pmWhat we ‘heard and saw’ was a television show. Remember who you’re dealing with; Archie Bunker was from Queens, too.
Archie Bunker’s Editorial on Gun Control

DCSCA (797bc0) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:41 pmArchie Bunker was from Queens, too.
I’m from normal parents, myself.
Yeah, he spent his whole life doing business in New York and Hollywood so that puckering up to Democrats has become a reflex with him. But that’s only a part of his problems.
nk (dbc370) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:47 pmNo meathead every single time people who have no business being on the street are not only loose but getting guns and shooting people, now I realize there are due process issues that need to be ironed out, but this is real life
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:48 pmTrump’s id has always pointed towards saying what he thinks 50.1 percent of the public believes at any given moment, while at the same time not giving a damn if the other 49.9 percent hates his guts. And he really doesn’t care if that 50.1 percent group is the same 50.1 percent all of the time. The result for the past 40 years has been he has no qualms about changing positions when he thinks the mood of the majority of the public’s changed, and as of two days ago, he felt (rightly or wrongly) that the 50.1 crowd was more on the side of the Democrats on new gun laws.
If Trump gets enough push-bask the other way, he’ll re-adjust his position and away from new gun control laws. Anyone expecting steadfastness from him when a major event causes a shift in the public’s perceived position is going to be disappointed.

AZ Bob (83e4e4) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:52 pmLike the 40% Indian tariff on Canadian peas which modi hiked to 60%, probably at that level yes, but they were main source of revenue till the income tax
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 8:56 pmYeah, we don’t want the errant honesty of a “spoken thought.” We want thoughts processed through layers of pollsters and focus groups before being vomited out as a carefully crafted lie, in the style of a Bush, McCain, or Romney. Because stuff gets done in such an awesome manner that way.
random viking (6a54c2) — 3/1/2018 @ 9:12 pmSo what’s the answe esquire of Michigan avenue
Only wealthy and influential persons who can afford $100,000 donations to their local police and politicians should be trusted with guns.
The question is nuncupatory. Patterico already put it in the post: “Forget that it’s guns, and substitute any other item into the sentence, legal or illegal.”
nk (dbc370) — 3/1/2018 @ 9:16 pmRight except that was one of the triggers of our revolution, this annoying habit of our betters to take our possessions and to levy taxes without consent, of course the colonists were up against an army that had secured an empire
narciso (d1f714) — 3/1/2018 @ 9:20 pmI have a problem with Pat saying “if Obama had said, done, acted like, broke the law in this way,…”
we would all gone crazy.
Obama put Denesh Desousa in prison for a movie. Obama put a Coptic Christian in prison to cover for his incompetence serving an Ambasador up on a spit. Obama armed 5/8ths of the hitmen in Mexico, and recently the media has tried to sell that as our ambasador to Mexico resigning her position rather than fleeing for her life.

Pinandpuller (4020a0) — 3/1/2018 @ 10:55 pmWhat was the motive in Fast and Furious?
https://patterico.com/2011/03/04/obama-administration-deliberately-allows-guns-into-mexico-how-many-have-died-as-a-result/
Certainly many Mexicans were killed by American sourced “assault style” rifles, but that wasn’t the goal.
When political level ATF supervisors were questioned they said, “If you’re going to make an omelette, you’ve got to break some eggs.”
Dead Mexicans were just the eggs.
Wasn’t the omelette negative press pushing to disarm law abiding America?
papertiger (c8116c) — 3/1/2018 @ 10:56 pm@12. Our Captain believes they’re ‘tariffic.’

DCSCA (797bc0) — 3/1/2018 @ 11:02 pmRemember Achmed “clock boy” Mohammad, bringing a bomb to school, and as punishment for his felony what?
https://patterico.com/2015/11/24/clock-boy-wants-10-million-invitation-to-white-house-rescinded/
That’s right. An invitation to the Obama White House, so he could get a pat on the back from Obummer, tell him what a fine upstanding Muslim he is growing up to be.
What was the motive for that?
Not for the little muslim rodent, but the Barry O. What was his motive for that?
Under the proposition that monsters aren’t born, but rather grown, nurtured, and cultivated, what Obama was doing was quality checking his crop.
What happens if anything goes, and nothing is ever punished in the school system?
Eventually you’re going to break some eggs and make an omelette. Right?
WTF is Jeff Sessions doing with regard to fast and furious?
Where is Mr. Magoo?
papertiger (c8116c) — 3/1/2018 @ 11:12 pmWhere is Mr. Magoo?
Valet parking at Mar-A-Lago.
DCSCA (797bc0) — 3/1/2018 @ 11:20 pmSessions couldn’t park a VW Bug on a football field.
mg (130c70) — 3/1/2018 @ 11:47 pmOne more unexplained twist is that on July 10, 2016, the same day Seth Rich was murdered, an FBI agent’s car was burglarized in the same vicinity. Included in the FBI equipment stolen was a 40 caliber Glock 22. D.C. Metro police issued a press release, declaring that the theft of the FBI agent’s car occurred between 5 and 7 a.m. Two weeks later, the FBI changed the time of the theft to between 12 a.m. and 2 a.m. Was the FBI gun used to shoot Seth Rich? Neither the FBI nor the Metro police will discuss.
Another aspect that needs to be uncovered is the FBI’s “denial” that its cyber experts who share space with the D.C. Metro police department at Cleveland Avenue in the District, assisted in accessing data on Mr. Rich’s laptop. Not likely. Data on the laptop revealed that Mr. Rich downloaded thousands of DNC emails and was in touch with Wikileaks. The file with evidence of what was on Mr. Rich’s laptop sits with the FBI in a co-shared space with the D.C. police department. According to Ed Butowsky, an acquaintance of the family, in his discussions with Joel and Mary Rich, they confirmed that their son transmitted the DNC emails to Wikileaks.

To take guns prior to due process is the same as civil asset forfeiture. The state takes your stuff and dares you to spend yourself into bankruptcy proving you’re not a criminal. Then, you have to sue to get your stuff back which, if it were actual stuff like jewelry, can’t be found so TS.

happyfeet (28a91b) — 3/2/2018 @ 9:47 amThe reason it doesn’t, besides getting used to it, that people think Obama is more calculating than Trump is – they think most people in psitins of power are – and so they’d read things into it, but people don’t read anything extra into what Trump tweets.
So “due process later” means exactly what it says – take the guns and have a contested hearing later. No hidden agenda beyond that, and even there, he’s not even pretending to seriously float a trial balloon. He may be appealing to peoples’ ignorance, because he might not be quite taht ignorant himself.

happyfeet (28a91b) — 3/2/2018 @ 9:54 amReposted from here.
Yeah, if the bill Feinstein is so excited about banning so called assault weapons actually passed…and Trump actually signed it, I will admit I was wrong about the man. For now though, posts like this are just another round of chicken little clucking about the sky falling.
At this point I believe this is just Trump playing the game better than most give him credit for. Think about it; with midterms coming up, what better way to secure Republican majorities than encouraging Demorats into another gun control battle? There is no better way to rally the base and make Republicans in congress look like hero’s for defeating it (plus exposing any gun grabbing RINO’s).
Again, I urge everyone to take a deep breath and remember, in the art of the deal the negotiation is fluid, what is important is the outcome. Don’t get yourselves all worked up over what Trump says, judge him by what he does. Unless he actually signs a gun grabbing bill, y’all are just spitting into the wind.

Sammy Finkelman (02a146) — 3/2/2018 @ 10:04 amBroward County Sheriff Scott Israel also wrote that Nikolas Cruz had moved to Palm Beach County so they couldn’t handle the most recent one of the complaints. They told the caller to call Palm Beach law enforcement.

With regard to another complaint, Nikolas Cruzwas referred “to DCF, and Nikolas received mental health counseling, DCF supervision, and medication for 2.5 months before DCF closed the case.”
The rest weren’t arrestable offenses and some weren’t about him – just things like the mother calling police because :her sons were fighting; her son was banging pool equipment against the house; etc.”
Sammy Finkelman (02a146) — 3/2/2018 @ 10:10 amNational Reviww reported that Nikolas Cruz did not take any large capacity magazines with him, because he couldn’t hide them in his bag because they were too big.

Sammy Finkelman (02a146) — 3/2/2018 @ 10:13 amIf you want to pretend that comments like his have no effect on legislative drafting and debate, go ahead. Here in the real world, his words matter.
Patterico (115b1f) — 3/2/2018 @ 10:16 amBut they’e learned they need to double check with Trump to see what his position actually is.
In school shooting news:
Two people shot dead at Central Michigan University, in a dormitory. Neither of the two people killed were students, and the killer is still at large although his identity is known. It is belived to be related to domestic violence.

While a 13-year old in Ohio changes his mind and does NOT shoot up his school but commits suicide in a school bathroom, killing only himself.

Sammy Finkelman (02a146) — 3/2/2018 @ 11:12 amYou fell for it LOL
This is the way of Trump … put all of your opponent’s cards on the table … then ignore them
Neo (d1c681) — 3/2/2018 @ 11:40 am“Here in the real world, his words matter.”
Indeed. In this case however, the words don’t matter unless the law is signed.
Personally, I’m going to hold off on the outrage until I see what is actually done. YMMV

These school shooters get scared off very easily. We’ve seen that time and again. They don’t wait to get shot.
Sammy Finkelman (02a146) — 3/2/2018 @ 12:26 pmSammy. WRT 97.
“technically” Maybe. So? Effectively, we have a contested hearing where the state has attorneys on salary and you have to pay your attorney to argue against the state which, even if it loses, can simply say “screw you and sue us some more, if you can afford it”.
Have a friend who was driving legally with a trailer and was rear-ended by a state trooper on a motorcycle. The impact was so hard that it bent the tow bar and deformed the trailer frame. The cop died gruesomely. My friend was in legal trouble for two years. I watched the trial. The defense’s most devastating witness was the prosecution’s expert. One after another criminal act–no evidence, no evidence, no evidence. After the acquittal, the defense lawyer commented that it looked as if the prosecution’s heart wasn’t in it. Still, cost my friend enormously, plus two years of hell for something that was obviously not a crime nor his fault. Apparently, that’s what it took for the state to look good to the state police. And I am supposed to presume good faith in the “contested hearings”?
Richard Aubrey (10ef71) — 3/2/2018 @ 2:28 pm“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.
Come on now. That is just plain funny. No, no, no, it aint ignorance. It’s just that he is ten steps ahead of y’all. Right, happyfeet?
But just in case he takes all of our guns and then gets us into a nuclear war with North Korea or somebody, I am gonna get in some practice time with my slingshot.
noel (b4d580) — 3/2/2018 @ 2:53 pmYes there are due process considerations

narciso (d1f714) — 3/2/2018 @ 2:58 pmDon’t get yourselves all worked up over what Trump says, judge him by what he does.
Playing golf and jerking off? What else does he do besides talk? He probably doesn’t even dress himself.
nk (dbc370) — 3/2/2018 @ 2:59 pm“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.
hello
he’s only talking about taking guns away from crazy people the sleazy fbi cowards are too afraid to engage what are gonna do murder on people
Let’s be clear
President Trump’s saying if the useless fbi is just gonna let crazy people shoot everybody then we have to have a way to step in when the useless fbi lickspittles hang out all day in the fbi basement taking turns on Lisa Page (dirty girl) instead of fighting crime for America
happyfeet (28a91b) — 3/2/2018 @ 3:05 pmThe problem with this is that we determine whether someone is crazy and going to do murder on people by going through due process. Trump wants to seize the guns before due process.
Chuck Bartowski (bc1c71) — 3/2/2018 @ 3:09 pmnonono he’s threatening the fbi with irrelevancy if they don’t clean up their act
