Some Folks Just Need Killin...

Take four minutes and watch this video. Warning: it's graphic as fuck. But it still needs to be watched.

ISIS Death Squads In Iraq

People need to understand what we are dealing with here. This is the random slaughter of civilians...for fun. There's no rhyme or reason to it; they are just doing it because they can. And because they think it will inspire terror, which will in turn make it easier for them to complete their objective of a unified Sunni Caliphate that spans the breadth Iraqi and the Levant (the Levant is the Syria/Jordan/Palestine region of the Near East, for the uninitiated.) It's pure Sun Tzu; kill one to terrify ten thousand. But there's a difference here.

Civil war is one thing. Combat is combat and soldiers die, but these guys aren't simply killing soldiers. These are civilians being slaughtered. And this video is just the tip of the iceberg on ISIS atrocities. If you're feeling morbid, or just curious, you can go find beheadings, crucifixions, and all other manner of horrors committed against civilians by these fucks in recent weeks.

Take a look, people. Evil is real. It exists. And every "COEXIST" bumper sticker on the face of the earth is not going to change that fact. It's okay--admirable, in fact--to hope and strive for a better world. But it's tragic and stupid to forget the actual world we live in today.

We live in world where evil exists. And some folks just need killing. Think about this video the next time you see a sign/bumper sticker/whatever that says "No Blank Check For Endless War" or some other trite bullshit.

Sometimes good men with guns are the only solution to evil me with guns. As Jeff Cooper, LTC, USMC and firearms pioneer once said:

"The rifle is a weapon. Let there be no mistake about that. It is a tool of power, and thus dependent completely upon the moral stature of its user. It is equally useful in securing meat for the table, destroying group enemies on the battlefield, and resisting tyranny. In fact, it is the only means of resisting tyranny, since a citizenry armed with rifles simply cannot be tyrannized." 

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

Amen.
