Lesson Learned

If you are an opponent to the Jacobins and interact with people in public in any sort of political capacity, record EVERYTHING.

Rep. Steve King has said some questionable things in the past.  Probably.  He was on notice already.  Then he sat down with an interview with the New York Times in the past couple weeks.  They quoted him, and maybe out of context.  Who knows, King FAILED to record the interview.  Rookie mistake.  In context he might have successfully resisted, but because he was on notice already he didn't get the benefit of the doubt.  Lost all his committee seats, and good riddance.  I don't know if he is racist or got railroaded.  I do know he is too dumb to keep his seats because he DIDN'T RECORD AND INTERVIEW WITH THE TIMES.  They are NOT you friend, Idiot Congressman.  The Lefties earned a scalp.

The Covington kids lucked out because the Black Hebrew Israelites recorded the whole thing from before that Indian stuck his nose in.  And they let that video OUT.  The video contradicted the narrative the Left put up, and the kids escaped the worst electronic lynch mobs, and some mobsters got a bit of a comeuppance.  The Left didn't get their scalp this time.

This applies to us when doing gun advocacy.  Don't talk to journalists.  They will twist your words and make you sound like a violent gun-toting loon.  If you DO talk to a journalist, even to say good morning, RECORD IT.   I don't like it, but that's the rules you have to live by.  Oh, and while you are recording, don't say anything stupid. 

Thus endeth the lesson.
