ON TYRANNY AND ULTIMA RATIO REGIS

 You know I used to admire Great Britain. It was something I picked up from my father and other relatives and it did seem like quite a nice place when I started visiting it in 1988 but it is now no less than it always was and it always was a First Class Tyranny. There's a reason we split away from those demons and as I watch them caper and dance in like lunatic zombies trying to shed head lice I can see why our Founders were so willing to fight them and to make damned sure that this nation and its peoples would always retain the right to fight the reptiles using all the weapons that come to hand when nations get to fighting among themselves. As I recall, it is still quite legal to own personal artillery in this country.

As one of the Cavaliers quipped in one of those BBC shows about their Civil War, “this house needs a cannon.” It’s a pity they allowed themselves to be gelded and turned back into peasants and serfs.

Not us, of course. 


 

In fact, I just saw this today while driving down to Wooster to pick up some replacement windows from an Amish guy for my 100 year old house. Cost me a hundred twenty bucks for two windows. Not bad. Around here, handmade wood windows run about a thousand dollars each if you can find someone to make them.
