Ramblings on explosives, guns, politics, and sex by a redneck Idaho farm boy who became a software engineer living near Seattle.

In the course of many gun control conversations the anti-gun person will propose the reason people want to own or carry guns is to “feel more manly” or to “compensate for inadequate equipment”. The pro-gun people have named this “Markley’s Law”. The origin of Markley’s Law is here.
Progressives fixate on genitalia and sex because that’s the only currency they have. No matter how diseased or obese a progressive is, there’s someone out there willing to copulate with it.
A little something different for Markley’s Law Monday.
This was in the context of a now deleted post on X of a Markley’s Law example. While it is not an example of Markley’s Law, he asserts he knows why they use penis insults. I think that, at best, he is only partially correct.
First, I would not say that is the only currency they have. They also have violence.
Violence is even more widely “traded” by their ilk than the sex. Nearly all mass shooters are democrats/liberals/progressives. And then there was Comrade Stalin – Leader of Progressive Mankind.
I further assert their “trade” in violence is a major reason they want to ban guns for ordinary people. They want to freely “trade” in this preferred currency of theirs. Gun owners impose a rather high “tax” on its use.
I also assert there are multiple reasons for the sexual insults. But the main reason is because these insults would be particularly hard hitting to them.
This has always been about money, greed, and power. To the NRA leaders and the bubbas, military-style weapons in the hands of Americans are power. The power of overkill. The power to disregard others’ safety, including that of school children. The power to wave a big gun around to substitute for other inadequacies.
There is lots of opportunity to roll your eyes about in the article. My first opportunity was the third sentence:
I’ve spit buckshot out while eating quail my uncle shot.
She attempts to deflect her critics by claiming she grew up in a gun culture and understands us. Unfortunately for her she demonstrates she really doesn’t know the culture at all. The inadequacies are all in her understanding.
What is surprising is this is someone who claims she is a:
Political and Legal pundit. Midland Texas Criminal Defense Attorney.
A lawyer so at loss for words she invokes a childish insult. That is really telling you something about the strength of her position on guns and gun owners.
Of course she was totally ratioed. There were some memes I had not seen before, too.
It is very telling that she thinks her ignorance is nothing to be concerned about. Her willful ignorance will only cause her more pain.
After the Heller, and especially the Bruen decision, the only screams we will be doing are victory screams. The long-term screaming into the void will be by the likes of ToutdeSuiteLaSinner.
Oh, look at your little plastic girly guns in all those pretty colors! Those will definitely tell the world that you have nothing in your pants. Hahahahahahahahaha!

This QOTD was the response when I pointed out Markley’s Law to them and suggested their previous childish insult helped reduce their fear of gun owners.
That Mr “Tactical” combined that truly ridiculous man-spreading/crotch shot with all those guns is a blatant confession that he has a very tiny penis & he’s really self-conscious about it.
Sometimes a cigar *isn’t* just a cigar…how many phallic symbols does this guy need?
Everyone should know by now that Freud was wrong about the whole penis envy thing. She must have received her psychology degree from the back of a cereal box.
Yes. Their minds really are that chaotic. It is no wonder they don’t trust the general population with firearms. They think everyone else is just as mentally messed up as they are.
It’s nobody’s business that you have a tiny cock, but if you keep dropping clues with AR15s, punisher skulls and the like, we’re all going to realize that your cock is extremely small.
And it takes nothing further from him for the rest of us to realize he is unencumbered by rational thoughts*.
* On Saturday I had lunch with my friend Elizabeth and she used the phrase “unencumbered by a high IQ”. I thought it was wonderfully funny and have adapted and adopted it.
I’m about 75% convinced it is a troll. The claim that cops can be trusted was their first tell. Their bio was the second:
Are you reading this to see if you’re being trolled/mocked or not?
Probably yes.
For doing such a great job of creating uncertainty as to the proper interpretation of their posting I moved them to the head of the Markley’s Law Monday queue.
Notice all the short racist white men with small penises who never went to college who’re posting that their 2nd amendment right “SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED”
As usual, the anti-gun people don’t even make sense. Carl is getting paid by X for engagement by the anti-gun people and gets a free AR-10 out of their attention. So, what can be cheaper than that? It is as if “john” didn’t read or can’t comprehend Carl’s words.
These people only have incidental contact with our reality.
Barb and I recently visited Central Europe. In Vienna we were walking from our Air B & B to some sort of public transportation to visit Schönbrunn Palace (the main summer residence of the Habsburg rulers set on what amounts to a 400-acre park) when I saw this and did a double take:
What? Oh, yeah, Freud was from Vienna!
In high school there was a psychology class, and I heard other students talking about the Id, Super Ego, Oedipus Complex, etc. I read a little about it and was not impressed. It wasn’t like so many other classes I took, like the math and science stuff which once the teacher introduced a topic it “just made sense”. Of course this was right, it fit in with everything else I knew. This psychology stuff was something different. Did the human mind really work like this? It just didn’t make sense to me and I didn’t take the class.
In college I had to take some “humanities” classes and in what I think was my second or third semester I took Psych 101. One of the first things the professor said was, paraphrasing:
Freud created the science of psychology. Other than the existence and importance of the unconscious mind, we have painstakingly proved everything he said about the human mind is not true.
Freud was such a powerful figure it had taken two generations after his death to finally reach the point where people called B.S. on his work. And to this day we still have remnants of his legacy with Markley’s Law.
I loved that psychology class. It wasn’t the “this makes sense” type of stuff to the extent of the of math and the hard sciences but it was based on decent research and did make a certain amount of sense. I took numerous other psych classes throughout my undergraduate years and probably was close to having a minor degree in psychology. It was really easy and I got A’s in all of them.
Now here I am, a two-minute walk from Frued’s office and residence. Whatever I think of Freud’s work, I have to see this museum. The next day, on September 1st, we visited the museum.
It was a little disappointing, but I’m glad I did it. Here are a few pictures:

This is an art exhibit at the museum, it is not his real couch:
