The Wisdom of Barnyard Bruke: Nikita Khrushchev's "We Will Destroy The U. S. From Within" and The Washington D. C. "March For Our Lives", Castro Style

Greetings ta ever one in western Illinois and all readers of "The Quill".

Sure hope you all had a good and meaningful Easter weekend with family and friends. If'n it snow on Easter Sunday, does the old adage of 7 more weekends to follow hold true? We will see.

There is much news of late concern'n the National School Walkout- "March For Our Lives", and "Rock The Vote" event throughout the nation and Washington D. C., sponsored by the ultra liberal National Education Association in partnership with the Brady Campaign and the National Urban League, George Soros and it is rumored the Russians.

Students from Majory Stoneman High School, where 17 students and staff were murdered, supposedly spear-headed the event financed by the previously mentioned group.

Celebrities, also not surprisingly, became involved.

The push of the events seemed ta be fer more restrictive gun laws but, it eventually morphed into a voter registration drive, with some utilize'n the opportunity ta make money by selling T shirts for $15 and hoodies for $45 amongst other things. Fake News Media took hold of the event in it's "Grand Fashion" and contributed much ta the liberal cause ta lead down the road of gun confiscation such as is happening in Oregon right now.

The dishonest "fake news" played on vulnerable misguided children to act out their agenda.

Older folk are reminded of Nikita Khrushchev of the Soviet Union, pounding his shoe on the United Nations table and loudly declaring: "We can't expect the American people to jump from capitalism to communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have communism. We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy from within." "We will take American without firing a shot."

One outspoken teen, Emma Gonzalez, being promoted by the radical liberal press is open about her Cuban ancestry and being bisexual. She has been president of her school's Gay-straight Alliance for three years. This does not imply that she has no right ta speak out with her radical views. However, it does indicate she might view the Constitution with a different mind set than the founders of the Constitution.

She has every right protected by that Constitution and it's first amendment rights. However, she should honor our country's second amendment rights as well.

Her father fled Castro's regime in 1968 and her mother is a math tutor. Miss Gonzalez, a high school senior amplifies the call for stricter gun control. She seems ta have learned nothing from her father's experience in Castro's Cuba and his confiscation of it's citizens guns and consequently communism's easy takeover of the Cuban government.

It is enteresting ta study this phenomenon a bit.

Not one sign displayed "Thou Shalt Not Murder," which should be displayed on every school marquee in the land.

It is not only a moral command, it is literally the law in every state of the USA.

Interestingly, one Florida school Superintendent is reportedly suggested placing a 5 gallon bucket of hand sized rocks in every classroom for teachers and students to throw at an active shooter. Think that through fer a minute or two, then ask yourself if you'd be enterested in come'n up against a gun-shooting-killer with a rock? But he, of course, has that figured out also by provide'n bullet-proof backpacks ta the students. This was actually reported as fact, as unbelievable as it might seem!

Somehow, some students are convinced that the U.S. Constitution is no longer valid, nor is the commandment against murder any longer valid, such as seems the case with the Florida killer Cruz.

What has the liberals done in our schools ta warp their minds? Those marchers say they fear fer their lives. Let's examine this thought a little closer ta find if outside-forces accelerators' gun-fears, take precedent over other death fears they are exposed to in their daily lives.

1.3 million folk die yearly in road auto crashes. That represents 3,287 per day with more than one half of road traffic deaths occurring among young adults ages 15-44. An additional 20-50 million are injured or disabled from crashes.

Our government allows a soldier younger than 21 years old ta fight and carry a weapon. But then these march'n students don't want ta allow the young soldier's wife, home alone with children, whilst her husband is off defend'n the county, ta buy a gun for home defense, if'n she is younger than 21. Where is the logic then if'n younger than 21 can hold a job, drive a vehicle, vote or anything else with danger, before they are 21 but can't defend their home and children?

Let's examine other deaths that might scare a young person that seems to be conveniently overlooked in the marches and protests. In 2016 there were 10,497 deaths from drunk drive'n.

That is almost 30 per day every day of the year. There were 2,200 alcohol poisoning deaths or 6 per day.

There were 4, 358 deaths from alcohol related accidents for youngsters under 21 years old, or 12 per day.

HIV and car crash deaths far exceed the peak number for a single year in gun deaths.

There are thousands of drug deaths caused by any one drug dealer during the course of the drug dealers career. If caught many received a short time in jail. Why aren't those students concerned about tougher sentencing laws ta help prevent those deaths.

The OPIAD crisis is another good topic fer them ta address with their time out of school fer marches.

In the U. S. It is estimated there are 27 "Honor Killings" per year. Are those victims not in need of attention brought on by a concerned march?

How about abortions? Are those marchers convinced babies in the womb are expendable.

It seems animals such as the spotted owl, etc. have more rights ta life and protection with more severe penalties than the unborn child has. Why no signs in the march fer those babies protection?

Every year in the world there are 40-50 million abortions. This figures out 125,000 per day.

In the USA there are over 3,000 abortions for day.

22% of all pregnancies in the USA end in abortion.

Wouldn't ya think a concerned marcher might want ta address those poor victims of convenience?

In 2014 there were 1668 teen suicides in the USA.

Teen Suicide Statistics by Age for 2014 (U.S.)

Age 13: 132 deaths-3.17 per 100,000

Total: 1,688 deaths-6.63 per 100,000

These numbers are the totals for all races both sexes. (5)

Youth Suicide Statistics

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for ages 1-24. (2016 CDC WISQARS)
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for college-age youth and ages 12-18. (2016 CDC WISQARS)
More teenagers and young adults die from suicide than from cancer, heart disease, AIDS, birth defects, stroke, pneumonia, influenza, and chronic lung disease combined.
Each day in our nation, there are an average of over 3,470 attempts by young people grades 9-12. If these percentages are additionally applied to grades 7 and 8, the numbers would be higher.
Four out of five teens who attempted suicide have given clear warning signs.

Youth Sports Safety Statistics

There were 120 sports-related deaths of young athletes in 2008-2009; 49 in 2010; and 39 in 2011.
Approximately 8,000 children are treated in emergency rooms each day for sports-related injuries.
Among children, those aged 15-17 experience the highest emergency room for sports injuries.
Rates of sports injury visits to ERs were highest in remote rural settings.
High school athlete suffer 2 million injuries, 500,000 doctor visits and 30,000 hospitalizations each year.
There are three times as many catastrophic football injuries among high school athletes as college athletes.
History of injury is often a risk factor for future injury, making prevention critical.
62 percent of organized sports-related injuries occur during practices.
Only 42 percent of high schools have access to athletic training services.
47 percent of schools nationally fall short of the federally recommenced nurse-to-student ratio. Many schools have no nurse at all.
Ninety-six percent of Americans feel it's important for young athletes to be evaluated by a qualified health care professional before they begin playing sports.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (Concussions)

In soccer, the rate of concussions among girls were 68 percent higher than the rate of concussions in boys, and in basketball the rate of concussions among girls was 293 percent higher than the rate of concussion in boys.
During 2001-20009, an estimated 2,651,581 children aged <19 years were treated annually for sports and recreation-related injuries. Approximately 6.5 percent, or 173,285 of these injuries were TBls.
400,000 brain injuries (concussions) occurred in high school athletics during the 2008-09 school year.
Emergency department visits for concussions sustained during organized team sports doubled among 8-14 year old between 1997 and 2007 and nearly tripled among older youth.
Concussion rates more than doubled among students age 8-19 participating in sports like basketball, soccer and football between 1997 and 2007, even as participation in those sports declined.
15.8 percent of football players who sustain a concussion severe enough to cause loss of consciousness return to play the same day.
A 2011 study of U. S. High schools with at least one athletic trainer on staff found the concussions accounted for nearly 15 percent of all sports-related injuries reported to athletic trainers.
High school athletes who have been concussed are three times more likely to suffer another concussion in the same season.
Females aged 10-19 years sustained sports-and recreation-related TBls most often while playing soccer or basketball or while bicycling.
More than 248,000 children visited hospital emergency departments in 2009 for concussions and other traumatic brain injuries related to sports and recreation.
15 injuries associated with participation in sports and recreational activities account for 21 percent of all traumatic brain injuries among children in the United States.

Would any of these sports safety statistics deserve time out from school for a march by worried students?

With all these many mentioned deaths and injuries in the USA only mention'n a few of the many out there, why are those young marches only focusing on gun control? It looks like there are many other death concerns ta be addressed as well, unless of course, the gun control radical persuaders have seized on a tragic moment ta advance their political agenda and take advantage of publicize'n emotionally traumatized young folk.

Nikta Khrushchev's predictions about conquering the USA from within is beginning ta come ta fruition.

Here is some additional education for you.

There is the evil black rifle, an XM-15e2 that fires the .223, 5.56 X 45 mm NATO cartridge.

There is an M1Carbine that fires the .30 Cal, 7.62x33 mm round. Both can hold 30 round magazines. Both have the same rate of fire. Both are available to the civilian market. One was invented for war to defeat oppressive governments that were murdering millions of defenseless and UNARMED citizens. Yes that is the wooden one.

The M1 was manufactured in WW2 and millions were made. After the war many of our boys came home with the M1's and even more were sold to the civilian markets by the CMP for $20 dollars a piece. Many gun enthusiast bought one."

So yes, even assault riles "others terminology not mine: have been around for decades. So here is the question. How did we have thousands upon thousands of men return home from some of the most horrific fighting the world has even seen, have access to the M1 and didn't go around killing innocents? Access? Nope. You could go to Sears and buy an M1. You didn't even have to be 18 to purchase one in the 50's.

Well perhaps today's guns have more firepower. Nope, also not true. Ammo cheaper? No! Much, much cheaper in the 40's and 50's.

So try if you will to take the gun out of the picture and put your focus elsewhere. What has changed? Nuclear family under attack. God removed from school.

Prayers forbidden. School administrators not allowed to punish kids anymore. Defeat is not allowed, everyone gets a trophy.

Teasing is bullying. Girls should not be treated as girls and boys should not be treated as boys.

When in doubt administer drugs.

Games where you kill people or cops, you get points for.

Movies that glorify violence. 15 minutes of fame given out on social media for stupidity. In a nutshell!

The only thing to add is: Psychotropic drugs and emotional isolations. Two key elements that weren't rampant right after WW2. They are now.

Have guns changed? Yes, they went from wood to black plastic. Has our society changed? What do you think?

Laws won't stop people inclined ta murder.

There were plenty of laws on the books ta stop the Marjory Stoneman High School massacre. In fact, the law, FBI and other enforcement agencies, failed those students and teachers, in a enforcement of existing laws!

Now, instead of adults calming the situation there are fanatics using emotional persuasion to excite the students and generate fear ta promote their particular radical adult cause.

In all the wars of the USA teenagers fought bravely fer the USA. They had fears, of course, but they fought unselfishly fer our country and the sake of others, even for the rights of today's students ta protest.

They fought fer our constitution includ'in the 2nd amendment right ta bear arms.

Those students in the National School Walkout and Rock the Vote event seemed ta center on "I" and "me" and how they have fears, stroked by adults utilize'n fear as a tool ta obtain power and control over law abide'n gun ownership and self protection in our nation.

There seems ta be a major difference and disjoint betwixt those events leading up ta the march and those young heroes (older as well) who fought in our nation's wars for its freedoms.

In summary deaths per day in the USA.

Drunk driving..........30/day

Alcohol poisoning.....6/day Abortions in USA ....................3,000/day

Abortions in world ...............125,000 day

Attempted young people suicides grades 9-12 in the USA .........3,470/day

Road Auto Crashes .........................3,287/day

Emergency Room Sports Injury Visits........8,000/day

Sport related traumatic brain injuries.........248,000

That totals in the USA 6,335 deaths per day, 8,000 sports injures per day, 248,000 sport related traumatic brain injuries, and 3,470 per day attempted suicides fer children grades 9-12. That's it fer this week, in case you were wonder'n what the boys and other folk were thinking about the Washington, D.C. "March for Our Lives", another attempt ta destabilize our nation. I'm sure the boys will dwell on the topic fer a spell!

Have a good rest of the week.

Hope'n ta see ya in church this week

Remember, wherever ya are, whatever ya be a do'n "BE A GOOD ONE!"

Keep on Smile'n

Count yer many Blessings

Catch ya later,
