There was a story in the mainstream media this morning about how often self-defense firearms are finding their way onto Santa’s list for millions of Americans.
Guns topping Christmas lists thanks to terrorism concerns, fear over restrictions
(Today) – The convergence of fears over terrorism, a perceived threat of gun laws being changed and the Christmas holiday have sent gun sales soaring in what is already the busiest month of the year for firearm purchases.
Guns are at the top of many Christmas lists, especially if November is any indication.
Last month, the FBI ran more than 2.2 million firearm background checks on potential buyers, a 24 percent increase from November 2014. On Black Friday, a record 185,345 background checks were processed by the FBI.
Germans Stock Up on Weapons for Self-Defense

- The scramble to acquire weapons comes amid an indisputable nationwide spike in migrant-driven crime, including rapes of German women and girls on a shocking scale, as well as physical assaults, stabbings, home invasions, robberies and burglaries — in cities and towns throughout the country.
- German authorities, however, are going to great lengths to argue that the German citizenry’s sudden interest in self-defense has nothing whatsoever to do with mass migration into the country, despite ample evidence to the contrary.
- The spike in violent crimes committed by migrants has been corroborated by a leaked confidential police report, which reveals that a record-breaking 38,000 asylum seekers were accused of committing crimes in the country in 2014. Analysts believe this figure — which works out to more than 100 crimes a day — is only a fragment: many crimes are not reported.
- “Anyone who asks for the reasons for the surge in weapons purchases encounters silence.” — Süddeutsche Zeitung
Germans, facing an influx of more than one million asylum seekers from Africa, Asia and the Middle East, are rushing to arm themselves.
All across Germany, a country with some of the most stringent gun-control laws in Europe, demand is skyrocketing for non-lethal self-defense weapons, including pepper sprays, gas pistols, flare guns, electroshock weapons and animal repellants. Germans are also applying for weapons permits in record numbers.
The scramble to acquire weapons comes amid a migrant-driven surge in violent crimes — including rapes, robberies and aggravated assaults — in cities and towns throughout the country.
German authorities, however, are going to great lengths to argue that the German citizenry’s sudden interest in self-defense has nothing whatsoever to do with mass migration into the country, despite ample evidence to the contrary.
In recent weeks, German newspapers have published dozens of stories with headlines such as: “Germany is Afraid — And Grabs for the Weapon,” “Germans are Arming Themselves: The Demand for Weapons Explodes,” “More and More People are Buying a Weapon,” “Security: Hands Up!” “The Need for Security Increases,” “Boom in Weapons Stores,” and “Bavarians are Arming Themselves— Afraid of Refugees?”
Read the rest of it for countless more anecdotal examples and stats. The good people of Germany recognize these so-called “immigrants” for what they are.
Why are the normally easy-going Germans arming themselves?
Here’s why, from the NEW YORK TIMES!
Norway Offers Migrants a Lesson in How to Treat Women
SANDNES, Norway — When he first arrived in Europe, Abdu Osman Kelifa, a Muslim asylum seeker from the Horn of Africa, was shocked to see women in skimpy clothes drinking alcohol and kissing in public. Back home, he said, only prostitutes do that, and in locally made movies couples “only hug but never kiss.”
Confused, Mr. Kelifa volunteered to take part in a pioneering and, in some quarters, controversial program that seeks to prevent sexual and other violence by helping male immigrants from societies that are largely segregated or in which women show neither flesh nor public affection to adapt to more open European societies.
…Norway, like most European countries, does not break down crime statistics by ethnicity or religion. A 2011 report by Norway’s state statistical bureau noted that “immigrants are overrepresented in the crime statistics” but suggested that this was not due to cultural differences but because many of the immigrants were young men.
You know it’s got to be bad when the NY Times writes about it instead of covering it up.
…Mr. Kelifa, the African asylum seeker…
“Men have weaknesses and when they see someone smiling it is difficult to control,” Mr. Kelifa said, explaining that in his own country, Eritrea, “if someone wants a lady he can just take her and he will not be punished,” at least not by the police.
Perhaps we should enact General Sir Charles Napier’s solution. In Napier’s time, men were burning widows to death in their “culture”. So Napier let it be known his culture has a custom to deal with men who burn women to death:
“Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs.”
It’s not just European countries seeing Muslim immigrants bringing their primitive cultures with them.
Muslim in Pennsylvania Arrested For Trying to BUY SLAVE GIRLS
(Gateway Pundit) – Leftists often bash America for having slavery in its past but thanks to Republicans, that practice ended long ago.
Now, liberals are pushing for more Muslim immigration in the US despite horrific stories like the one below.
Daniel Greenfield reported at Frontpage Mag:
Muslim in Pennsylvania Busted Seeking to Buy Yazidi Slave Girls
Slavery isn’t something that happened in the past. The slave trade still exists. It even exists in America where every now and then, Muslims are arrested and charged with bringing slaves to this country. It’s happening in Irvine, California.
A decade ago, Shyima Hall was smuggled into the United States as a 10-year-old slave, forced to cook and clean inside the home of a wealthy Irvine family and, at night, sleep on a squalid mattress in a windowless garage.
Hall’s Egyptian parents sold her into slavery when she was 8 for $30 a month, according to authorities. The Cairo couple who bought her moved to Irvine two years later, smuggling Hall into the U.S. where she toiled for them and their five children until she was 13.
Hall said she worked 16 hour days, scrubbing floors, cooking meals and cleaning house, and was rarely allowed outside the spacious home. She was forced to wash her own clothes in a bucket and was forbidden from going to school. She never visited a doctor or dentist and didn’t speak a word of English.
Now an ISIS supporter in Pennsylvania has been busted and his social media accounts show an interest in enslaving non-Muslims; which is what ISIS stands for.
We can arm ourselves, to protect ourselves from jihadi attacks and our women from rape… because, it would seem that too many of these men from “war-torn” regions can’t handle themselves when a woman smiles at them. “Men have weaknesses and when they see someone smiling it is difficult to control,” said one.
Or, we in the West can simply not admit these barbarians into our nations and that will help keep our families (and our women) safer.
Why is it you hear nothing from feminists about the horrendous manner in which women are treated in these countries where these predominately military-age males are emigrating from? Besides, what does it say about a culture when the young, healthy males flee a region that is supposedly so horrific, while at the same time leaving their women, children and old people behind?
