Not Your Grand-Parents' Maleficent

 Maleficent

Went and saw the movie w/ various #powers.  This is the latest in a string of CGI enhanced 'live-action' re-imaginings of classic fairy tales.  This ones design heavily influenced by the Disney classic "Sleeping Beauty", especially that of Maleficent's costuming and the three fairies. 

Two highlights of this movie was the performance of Angelina Jolie as Maleficent and the visualizations throughout the movie.  Jolie overshadowed every other performer in the film and you can tell she really got into the classic part.  The rest of the actors were mediocre to wooden. The scenery and CGI was beautiful.  If you're going to imagine a fairy land, this is pretty close to what you would get.

The modernized story was above average and very 'Disney'.  Entertaining but formulaic although it is very much a departure from the original animated film.  I definitely enjoyed it and it was worth a theater trip.  Likely will pick this one up when it comes out on DVD. 

4/5 stars

More Made Up Numbers From Mom's Demand Action

While there's always some dispute over attendance numbers at rallies, making up amounts so ridiculous that they're easily refuted does nothing to help your cause.  From MDA-IL: (Note MDA only shows closeups and small groups)
On June 13, Moms Demand Action joined more than a thousand people for a huge Peace March calling for a safe summer in Chicago.
Wow, those are some good numbers.  Too bad they're complete BS, even according to the anti-gun Chicago Sun-Times:
Some 200 people turned out Friday night for St. Sabina’s annual end-of-the-school-year peace march, joined by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a host of other dignitaries.
A video of the crowd shows about 200 people.

So multiplying numbers by 5 seems to be the default for MDA right now. If we multiplied the IGOLD numbers by that, we would claim over 15,000-25,000 attendees.

If they have so much support, why the need to lie?

How Many More Laws Rahm-bo?

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanual is supporting yet another Chicago based 'anti-violence' (read: Anti-gun) group built on the corpse of 15yr old girl shot last year.
"Three-quarters to 80 percent of the guns taken off the streets are coming from outside the city: Downstate, Indiana, Wisconsin," he said.
A useless statistic as Chicago has NO gun shops or gun shows where people can legally buy firearms.

Now let's look at the background of the shooting:
Police say Michael Ward, 18, and Kenneth Williams, 20, opened fire on Pendleton and a group of friends last month in retaliation for a shooting last year in which Williams had been injured. 
 Ward was the shooter.  So how many laws did he break even before the shooting?  No FOID, carrying a loaded handgun, illegal purchase by someone under 21. Both were gang members. And more:
The reputed gang member accused of gunning down 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton last month was on the street even though he had been arrested three times in connection with break-ins and trespassing while on probation for a weapons conviction in recent months, the Tribune has learned.
 Yep, skippy was on 'probation' for countless other petty crimes AND possession of a loaded firearm ALREADY.

THIS is the kind of sh!tbag committing most of the crimes.  Long histories of crime that the courts are doing little to nothing about, letting them run around the city committing even more crimes of which they have about a 15-20% chance of being caught at.

But yeah, MORE laws that won't be enforced would have made him think twice. Sure.

Oh, and the exec director of this 'new' group?  A former Joyce Foundation exec.  So w/ all their chatter on the 'youth' jobs etc, we know where 90% of their efforts are going to be focused on.

Ban on 90% of Guns 'Reasonable'

You really have to love 'reasonable', 'common-sense' solutions from people that have no clue what they're talking about. It's got all the standard uneducated talking points:

NRA hate
Gov't has Nukes and tanks
banning semi-autos is 'reasonable' (but likely can't say what a semi-auto is)
Yelling 'fire' in a theater is against the law so we can ban guns
crime is skyrocketing (no, it isn't)

Then she delves into strawmen like 'you want to get rid of all laws' nonsense.

You know what, let's call this what it is, the arguments of a child.  Seriously, reading this was like dealing w/ 4thpower Bravo when she's feeling petulant.  Acting like she knows what's best for everyone and is an expert on every subject. Arguing just for arguing sake. And she really has no clue on any of it.

And that's what gun control is. The arguments of children thinking their 'parents' (iow the gov't) will feed them, change their diapers, and tuck them in at night after checking for monsters under the bed.

Also seems to be some 'Reasoned Discourse' going on as at least a dozen comments have disappeared and other aren't being shown at all. 

Update: The reality is unsurprising:
She's a limousine liberal who has suddenly become an expert on gun laws because she's watched the news.  Like the majority of her ilk, she doesn't know nor care about things like facts, those kinds of things are just 'petty differences' because 'guns are horrible'.  At the same time she won't go anywhere near places like Englewood or Back of the Yards even though she doesn't 'believe' that people can be good or evil. 

Like I said, she has the mentality of a child.

Even CNN Can't Stomach Bloomberg's BS.


CNN Slashes School Shooting Stats Claim By 80 Percent 
 CNN has drastically revised a claim it made, which was based on a graphical map from a pro-gun control group, which purportedly showed that 74 school shootings have occurred in the U.S. since the Sandy Hook massacre in Dec. 2012.
IOW, an anti-gun group served up a bunch of crap, CNN and all the other sycophants ate it up like it was chocolate ice cream, then they finally had to admit what the flavor was. Just like VPC's 'Concealed Carry Killers' garbage, Bloomie put out a bunch of made up claims by throwing whatever they could to sell scary headlines.

They are liars. The only things they can do to promote their cause is to lie and stand on the bodies of dead children while they're doing it.

And Meanwhile.... In Chicago

While Obama and the Anti-bots are gearing up to push for another round of gun control, this is what happened in Chicago, one of the strictest cities in the nation on firearms, last weekend:

30 Shot, 4 Fatally, in Weekend Chicago Violence

Now let's look at who's doing the shootings:
 Officials believe the shooting may have been gang-related.

someone exited a vehicle and opened fire  (IOW gang/drugs)
someone exited a blue vehicle and opened fire (iow gang/drugs)

The incident is believed to be gang-related Police believe the incident may have been gang-related.

 The man, who police said was not cooperating with investigators (iow gangbanger)

 Police said the shooting may have been gang-related.

  pulled alongside his vehicle and a passenger fired shots at his car (iow gang/drugs)
Almost every single shooting gang related.  While the incidents that are splashed all over the news are horrific, they are not the 'norm' when it comes to 'gun related' homicides/shootings in the US, this is.  Gang-banging thugs shooting up their own neighborhoods and other gang-banging thugs w/ their families caught in the middle. But these are conveniently ignored when anti-gun fanatics and their idiot pet politicians can yell 'For the Children' while standing on their corpses in order to restrict the 99.7% of people who are NOT going out and doing these things.

THAT's the reality of 'gun control'.

Target To Ban Guns?

It's looking likely.

From this and chatter from the undersphere, it's looking very likely that Target may cave to pressure from the Bloomberg mommies and ban all forms of carry in their stores.  It certainly didn't help that they were highlighted by OCT to 'normalize' open carry as well as the jack-hole who left a loaded gun in the toy aisle.

If you shop at Target, here's the way to get ahold of them and encourage them to stick w/ state/local laws on carrying:

Email: Guest.Relations@target.com

Phone: 1-800-440-0680

Pass this on.  We've had enough PR losses due to this and every one means more money in Shannon Watt's pocket.

So .@shannonrwatts, Why Did You Have Armed Security?

Shannon Watts, founder of 'Mom's Demand Action' and current Bloomberg puppet, says that defending ones self w/ a firearm has 'never happened'. 

I guess that's why she felt the need for private, armed security at her protest of the NRA convention last month. 

Hypocrite.
