Lowest Common Canadianism

~ SPECIAL DISCOUNTS FOR MUSLIMS— Lockerbie, I mean. 270 dead, then poor baby terror-guy gets let our with backroom deals? Shame on Scotland, and all of us.
Of course, Canada did much the same in releasing one of the Sikh rat-bastard conspirators, Inderjit Singh Reyat, who helped to blow up Air India Flight 182. “In all, 329 people perished, among them 280 Canadians and 22 Indian nationals.” He served 5 years. That’s 5.5 days per death, according to the dysfunctional injustice theories of our Trudeaupian injustice system. That and the endless silly-buggery of the trial and the inquest into same: a fine example of liberal hate and injustice in action. Whole families wiped out, for Sikh snits over past Indian injustices against them, real or imagined.
That would all be part of the delightful Canucki multi-culti quilt, right? Bringing unique hates and feud to a new country, and not only using this country as a basis for funding the battle back home, but bringing the fights here.
Not to be totally hateful and Albanophile, but most Scots came to the new world and made something of it and themselves, even if they started out with nothing, and tangled North American forest to start with. Had they come here and simply continued Jacobite wars and hate, they would be rightly regarded as idiotic, and wasting their time. They would also have gone to jail. Names? Simon Fraser. Samuel Cunard. Sir John A. MacDonald, David Mackenzie, Sanford Fleming, George Simpson, John Buchan, Lord Dalhousie… and that’s just few big names, not to mention the many more ordinary hard-working Scottish folk who found a new start in Canada.
That’s where we betray our new Canadians with the bigotry of low expectations. We allow them to act as if there was no better way to be than as they are. That, in turn, is because officialdom has lost the courage of any convictions except this: that Western civilization sucks, and all others are better than ours. Even when our country is not rife with civil unrest, factional feuds, violent governments, and vile customs and traditions.
Thus, the reasonable and peaceable parts of the immigrant community are held hostage in both directions, by gutless officialdom, and the extremists in their own community. Unwilling to condemn the condemnable, we end up condemning others, and weakening Canadian society as a whole, by making factionalism and tribalism the norm, not something bad. Lowest common Canadianism, indeed.
Bink’s own ancestry is Scots, English, Dutch-German, Moldovan, Portuguese, and other odds and sods. All old Europeans, come to North America between the 1750s up to the 1950’s for a new start in a new land. Old & new blood, immigrants all, and I’m proud of the nations they built and handed on to give their descendants a better future, not a place to exploit, hate, and take for granted– either by official political correctness, or ungrateful immigrants. ~
Huzzah For Coulter!
~ ITEM: Ann Coulter’s new column, plus new video
~ I CONFESS THAT I took soft-con warnings on Ann Coulter without knowing much about her. She’s mean, too much, sharp-tongued, etc., so on and so forth.
Then I read here’ Treason’ [Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism, 2004] at Binks-Dads lair, and found her foot-note stuffed book was clever, concise, detailed, and factually fair. Actually, I’m even a bit of a fan, now, though I’ve not read any other books yet. Maybe it was her best, and the rest fall short, but still.
Sometimes, as a Canadian, I can be instinctively over-fairminded, a wimpi-con, a Frumite waffler taking time to shoot in both directions in the political wars of the West. I’m not advocating teh crazy, but at least standing for what we claim to stand for, and being willing to speak out and take a few lumps for the same.
We’ve been convinced by Trudeaupianism that the main Canadian virtues are niceness, and docility, and an endless ability to apologize for evil. Nonsense. That’s sheepish socialism speaking, and not the virtues that built the nation, or which can keep her going and growing. True, as heirs all of Scots attitude of inward pride, and an economy with words, we don’t blatt and cheer ourselves endlessly, but ask people elsewhere how Canadians are distinct, and they will be able to answer more clearly than the CBC would have it. Canuckis? Tough.. fair-minded.. funny.. generous.. determined.. ironical.. not enamoured of stuffed shirts.. leaving things better than we found them. That’s hardly the same as jelly-spined multicultism and pc self-hate.
So huzzah for Ann Coulter, who reminds us that we need to learn and relearn and pass on the facts, un-leftified thought and history, and be willing to insist on them, because lives and souls and whole nations hang in the balance. A nation can die without noticing the fact, until it is too late, because a nation is first and foremost a complex set of agreed-upon principles and social agreements, extended in time and space. When people stop believing in the idea that was and should be Canada, she is wounded, and we are all threatened. Ideas matter, because upon them is founded what is built up around us and within us.
There are worse things than having people dislike you or your opinions, and to call you names– like dying the death of a thousand cuts which is the due of every coward. Certain Lefty members of my own immediate and extended family have tolerantly insisted that I’m a hatemonger, racist, extremist, and a whole long list of unpleasantries– and felt it their duty and business to so inform me. Not counter my concerns and arguments with their own, but with name-calling.
How typical, and how tolerant. ~
Bang Bang!
~ AS WE ALL KNOW, guns kill people, and people with guns kill people, and bullets kill guns, and yada yada. Mind you, when I was in the U.S. last month, shooting with a sweet Kimber .45, a .22 rifle, and a pump-action shotgun (no major FAC/ gun-training/ police list, thanks, just the shooting I did as a kid with the Binks-Dad), and the kids learning the .22, all I saw was well-trained folk carefully using guns for sport and self-defence– whole families, even. Tiny kinder-.22s up to AR-15s and .357 magnums (too loud, thanks).
Given the way Canadian gun-haters talk about it, the U.S. should have been a wild-west shootout. Not so much.
Now my kids know gun-drill, safety, proper shooting, trigger discipline, and actually hitting a target. The gun has been demystified, it’s no longer a scary dangerous bad thing, but a tool only for certain purposes– including self/ home-defence.
Otherwise, my boys might be like so many young Canadians, who know almost nothing about guns. Then they might be like the feminized and terrorized men who abandoned their women class-mates of the École Polytechnique de Montréal to the tender mercies of the murderer Gharbi and his little.22.
Taken simply, guns are part of the panoply of freedom, along with free speech, representative democracy, and the peaceful aspects of society and civilization. They are the stop-gap against crime, and tyranny, and a tool for hunting and self-sufficiency– and that’s why radicals always seek to take guns away from law-abiding citizens, or severely complicate their ownership and use. Government must have only dependent children in utopia.
Even if you choose not to own one, take lessons, go to a gun-range, and learn about guns, and consider why they are part of your freedom, and not simply scary-bad danger things to be left in the hands of police, army, and criminals, instead of law-abiding citizens.
Maybe it’s time to get a few guns into this house. ~
Hurray For Obama!

~ ITEM: Warning: MoveOn.Org, SEIU, ACORN To Infiltrate ObamaCare Protesters And Act Like Asses In Front Of Lap Dog Media
~ THE REPUBLICANS need to remake themselves and get rid of the RINOs and the corruption before anybody will vote them back in. The Townhalls are not simply anti-Dem or contra Obama– they’re also against the system that got the strongest country in the world into a cool $9 Tril debt, and entangled in every kind of economic stupid.
In that sense, all conservatives should be thankful for Obama– he’s shown the utopian dream for what it is, and what the modern extremo-Dems (the Soros-bought party) are all about. The old-style communist/ fascist tactics of thugs, bald-faced lying, personal destruction, direct political interference from the White House against individuals and corporations, nascent brownshirts via an alphabet-soup of interconnected groups and unions. Obama and his handlers have pulled out all the stops.
Let’s use, not lose, this God-given opportunity! ~

”…It’s not an outrage. It’s surely not a death panel. But it is subtle pressure applied by society through your doctor. And when you include it in a health care reform whose major objective is to bend the cost curve downward, you have to be a fool or a knave to deny that it’s intended to gently point you in a certain direction, toward the corner of the sick room where stands a ghostly figure, scythe in hand, offering release.”
~ The Krauthammer ~
“The real truth is that the Obama administration is professional at bullying, as we have witnessed with ACORN at work during the presidential campaign. It seems to me they are sending down their bullies to create fist fights among average American citizens who don’t want a government-run health care plan forced upon them. So I ask again. Is President Obama creating a civil war in our own country?”
