Is Your Little Brat an I.E.D. ?

Following nicely on the heels of yesterday's post about pseudo scientific crap being put forward by hucksters and  media morons...

I.E.D. latest and greatest from the nanny statists and zombiedrug peddlers at Harvard.

Intermittent Explosive Disorder ?

What desperation these clowns must feel to publish something .... anything!

And how clever to dress their new pet theory about uncontrolled brats and obnoxious behaviour. Choosing the acronym IED for this piece of faux scientific poo ... a sure way to attract the attention of the idiots in the mainstream media ... and get the buzz going about their "discovery".

Let's be clear ... this is nothing but pop science from people who need to make a name for themselves.


“If we can detect IED early and intervene with effective treatment right away, we can prevent a substantial amount of future violence perpetration and associated psychopathology,” Ronald Kessler, senior author and McNeil family professor of health care policy at Harvard Medical School, said in a statement.

Keep your kids out of the reach of drug peddling bureaucrats and teach them the meaning of responsibility and consequences.

Nanny Statists Still Trying

To find justification for "banning" corporal punishment and criminalizing parents who exert force on their children.

In THIS stilted piece of faux journalism ....   we see  some specious assertions based on non existent research. The gist of it is that Spanking Causes Mental Illness!

But of course .... unless you consider that it is nascent psychological problems that require the use of force  to control. Short of equipping parents with emergency supplies of psychotropic drugs, the use of corporal punishment and physical restraint is the best method of redirecting the focus of crazed children.

Quite the opposite of the nurse nanny types who would happily drug every child they can get their meddling talons on.

If there is in fact any correlation between spanking and adult mental disorders ... it is the mental disorders that were there in the first place. Which no doubt, would lead the factually and logically challenged busy bodies to claim this as some proof that "spanking" does not work. However, this would simply be another example of the perpetually wrong liberal mind.

First of all ... all children are psychopaths. The only difference between one and another is the extent to which the real world rules over the impulses and fantasies that are the stuff of juvenile being.

It is the parents prerogative to decide what behaviour will or will not be tolerated and in what circumstances. In the same manner, it is the parent's responsibility to enforce standards of behaviour and to discourage aberrant behaviours. In enough cases that entire generations of would be juvenile tyrants were discouraged from indulging their natural psychopathic whims frequently enough to instill some sense of personal limitations and consequences for antisocial behaviour.

The fact of the matter is that spanking is not intended to be a cure for anything but the immediate irrational outburst that needs to be checked. It may be that in some cases this preemption of self indulgent outbursts may possibly block the development of this sort of behaviour into lifelong habits.

If anything, when a child that is prone to these sort of outbursts dose not respond to the use of physical restraint and corporal punishment .... you just might GET a CLUE that there is a deeper issue that actually does require professional intervention.

Parents who fail to understand their responsibility do no one any good. And, relinquishing responsibility to meddlesome bureaucratic minded busy bodies is no answer because it does nothing to instill any responsibility into the people who stand to benefit from this sense the most.

Lefty Logic ....

Today the Government of Canada introduced a bill to scrap the long gun registry. A waste of resources and an unwarranted intrusion into the privacy of law abiding citizens.

But those who work with homicide victims disagree.

"Snowmobiles have to be registered. Our cars have to be registered. I don't see anything wrong with the gun registry at all," said Holly Kolevris from the Manitoba Organization for Victim Assistance.

If a registered gun was stolen from a home, information from the registry could help in the investigation, said Kolevris. 

Ahh ... so now it is The Caring Class who must be appeased! Because ... those who "work with victims" have a superior grasp of right and wrong?

Hardly...


Yes ... we register our vehicles .... but the laws that mandate the registration of vehicles ... Do Not ... empower law enforcement to invade people's homes or confiscate private property.


Neither do the laws which mandate the registration of vehicles allow for arbitrary criminalization of vehicle owners through bureaucratic fiats which allow faceless and unaccountable "public servants" to determine that one sort of vehicle is suddenly illegal and ownership of it banned.


In  the same veign the registration of a vehicle does not entail the gathering of intrusive personal information or depend on arbitrary back ground investigations by ... again ... unaccountable bureaucrats. Nor do the registrations become subject to the whims of potentially hostile people ... who for no other reason than their own whims may make unfounded accusations about what a that vehcile owner owns ... that may result in aformentioned intrusions by law enforcement and arbitrary confiscation of said privat property. 


Not to mention the resulting criminal charges that would be ... in many cases have been ... the result of such laws.


I wonder if the caring Holly would like to go through the same sort of process that gun owners go through ... when she renews her dirvers licence? Or would care to experience a random inspection and search of her private home based on a law that  mandates such excesses for vehicle ownership. 


Or maybe ... we can include other mundane things? Perhaps appliances... power tools... lawn mowers.


I wonder if  Holly and her friends are parents? Perhaps having one's children removed from her home under laws that allow this on the basis of the sort of laws she seems to like would be OK with her too?

As with seemingly all such "progressives" .... the things they like are ok ....

Well ...   CTV seems to think Holly has a point...

As The Long Gun Registry Nears It's Long Overdue Demise....

We are hearing some disturbing news in regard to just what exactly the Conservative government is really planning to do.

We ... unfortunately ... have a government that is far from conservative in thought and deed.
Rather ... the Harper coalition of old school PCs ... politically opportunistic Liberals masquerading as Red Tories  and  Quebec first weasels, has precious few (if any) champions of individual rights who have any sense of respect for the principles of private property, self determination and personal responsibility.

And so ... with the long gun registry coming to an end, we have the prospect of the  Federal Government kowtowing to all of the same ilk that were promoting the egregious over reaching and unwarranted legislation in the first place.

So called "Public Safety Groups" are spouting off and getting usual public platform from the compliant and unquestioning mainstream media. Although the MSM ... as always fails to define just what these groups actually are and who they consist of.  Be assured that feminist hysterics and their fellow travellers in the world of the self righteous and meddlesome finger waging nurse nannyists are lobbying hard to have restrictions increased on the lawful ownership and use of firearms.

Add to that  the same bunch from the National Organisation of Police Chiefs ... who have been at the forefront of demanding greater curbs and more power to intrude on pretty much anything that ordinary citizens do.

And of course the RCMP brass who seem to think it is their right to determine what Canadians may and may not do with their own property.

These groups are using the same false assertions ... the same fear mongering tactics and the same bullying that they used in defending the former Liberals in implementing an unnecessary and fundamentally unjust system of regulation on Canadians. The fact that the implementation was and continues to be a prima facie example of  all the things that are wrong with government regulation that is created to mollify ideological sub groups of our society. The fact that as a whole Canadians never wanted or felt any need for such an institution as the registry and certainly no justification for the associated cost of maintaining the bureaucracy that goes along with it, the fact that there never was a sound justification nor in reality an basis in fact for the claims of long gun registry proponents has not and still doe not keep them from spewing their nonsense.

So what exactly is the government planning to do?

The fact that the Long Gun Registry is being scrapped primarily because of the unjustifiable cost does not mean that our morally meek CINOs will actually scrap the whole thing.

They can get away with pandering to the alarmist anti-gun hysterics in keeping a significant section of the legislation in force along with a trimmed down bureaucracy that taxpayers will still be funding and that will still exist for no reason other than the appeasment of people who care nothing for your rights or freedoms.

Other troubling possibilities are that under pressure from the anti-gun activist lobby ... the government may reclassify many weapons into the restricted or prohibitted categories.

As it stands .... we have the strong possibility that the so called scrapping of the long gun registry is just going to be a re-packaging and that we will be no better off than before in the matter of private property rights and the right to NOT have unwarranted bureaucratic and law enforcement intrusions in our lives and our homes.

Try reading this .... (MSM lefty spin warning in advance)   Public Safety Groups Want ....

Back Country Sports

Whenever someone goes out in the wilderness and gets themselves injured or dead there is always some body who starts whining about regulation.

For the record:

There is no need to regulate people who wish to experience adventure and raw nature.

It does not matter whether you go there by foot, by ski, by dog team or by machine. It does not matter whether you go in a large group, a small group or alone.

If you go into the wild you go at your own peril.
Of course the BC government Likes the idea of meddling!


Suck it up cupcake!
