   “Member of a gang of cut-throats”, yes, that describes this government. Department after department is arming itself with a large arsenal. Don’t think they won’t be used. Unfortunately, the major lesson they learned from the Bundys is to shoot everyone before the cameras arrive.

   Buster Crabbe was known for playing Flash Gordon, who travelled around in spaceships with terrible emissions problems (you need a dramatic illustration of this here, because those obviously-filthy emissions were the best special effects they had in those movie serials). It was considered normal then, because everybody had their own emission problems, both from smoking and from clunky autos. In the 1950’s (when the only Rory I ever knew in movies–Rory Calhoun–appeared), Crabbe played “Captain Gallant of the French Foreign Legion” on TV and, being an Olympics champion swimmer, also headlined water shows (as did Esther Williams). Johnny Weismuller, another Olympics champion swimmer, played “Jungle Jim” on TV in the ’50s, after playing Tarzan throughout the previous two decades (and he was eclipsed in that role, in the ’50s, by the immortal Gordon Scott). And I ALMOST got a Davy Crockett coonskin cap (if not for what it now seems clearly was a parental conspiracy–my parents were brainless pawns of the consensus then, which is to say they were pretty normal, and quite predictably against even their best offspring’s most glaring needs).

   So “Thanks, For the Memories” (Bob Hope in “The Big Broadcast of 1938”) and we return you now to your regularly-scheduled programming…after this brief word about your breath…

   BLM is probably the least radical of the federal services. It should be noted that NPS was there as well and they are bunch of really radical eco-fascist. There has been a huge turnover in all of the agencies because all the old guys who were educated before the universities were taken over by the hard core leftists have retired. The newbies are pretty well radicalized.

   I think it’s long-past time to disarm every federal agency not a part of the FBI or the federal marshals. If the feds need to be armed, they can do what federal law instructs them to do: call in local law enforcement:

   When the Secretary determines that assistance is necessary in enforcing Federal laws and regulations relating to the public lands or their resources he shall offer a contract to appropriate local officials having law enforcement authority within their respective jurisdictions with the view of achieving maximum feasible reliance upon local law enforcement officials in enforcing such laws and regulations.

   – 43 U.S.C. Section 1733, Subsection C

     Disarm the FBI too. It’s an investigatory branch, not an enforcement branch.
