Waching daily May 22 2018

With tragic mass shootings in the news, the Left has become more focused than ever on

expanding gun control.

But as they get more and more riled up about guns, they become looser and looser with their

facts, repeatedly making false or misleading claims about basic firearms knowledge.

One of the left's biggest pushes is for a so-called Assault Weapons Ban. Hillary Clinton,

House Democrats, and a number of left-wing anti-gun advocacy groups have advocated for

it, and a ban is supported by 91% of self-identified Democrats according to a recent Quinnipiac Poll.

But "assault weapon" is not a well-defined term—anti-gun politicians basically use

it to mean "guns that look scary."

Seven states have assault weapons bans in place, and they all define them in

different ways.

The most common characteristics used to define assault weapons are ultimately cosmetic in nature,

things such as a pistol grip, a bayonet lug, or a barrel shroud, which don't

make the gun any more lethal than guns that are excluded from such bans.

Even anti-gun former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg, founder of the influential anti-gun

advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety, which is pushing for an assault weapons ban, admitted

that banning assault weapons would have a marginal impact on homicide death.

On an interview on CBS This Morning in 2013, he stated the numbers current at the time;

only a couple hundred people a year are killed with so-called assault weapons, whereas about 12,000

are killed with handguns.

We could also look at the left's criticism of so-called semi-automatic weapons—also known as

nearly every gun in use.

Many on the left don't seem to know the difference between a semi-automatic and automatic

firearm.

An automatic weapon keeps firing for as long as you hold the trigger, like a machine gun,

but a semi-automatic weapon merely reloads the next bullet after you fire one—a system

used in almost all pistols in common use.

Yet still 77% of Democrats would support banning ALL semi-automatic weapons according to a

2016 Morning Consult Poll.

So what about banning uncommon automatic weapons?

Celebrities including Seth MacFarlane and Susan Sarandon have tweeted out calls to ban

automatic weapons, and Senator Bernie Sanders called for an end to the sale of automatic weapons

on NBC's Meet the Press.

One problem: they've already been extremely regulated since 1934, and the sale of new machine

guns, that was banned in 1986!

There may be some reasonable, common sense firearm policies we could all agree on.

But if you want to find out what they are, why would you ever listen to advocates who

get basic facts wrong?

Real Reason For The Obama's Multi Year 'Project' With Netflix Is Far Worse Than Anyone Thought - Duration: 5:34.

Real Reason For The Obama's Multi-Year 'Project' With Netflix Is Far Worse Than Anyone Thought

Netflix just announced on Twitter that they inked a multi-year deal to produce series

and films with Barack and Michelle Obama.

The shows will be part of the Netflix streaming series and the former President, and the first

lady will be portrayed in a heaping of various ways.

This could be seen as just another job for the Obama family in their search to remain

relevant in politics, and culture.

Or there might be another agenda hidden in their Democratic silver lining, which would

make their desire to work much worse than anyone thought.

Some critics believe the Obama family signed onto this deal in hopes to use Netflix, to

sneak their Democrat agenda into the mainstream streaming services, and try to push for the

Democrat candidate in the 2020 election.

We're not that far away from the next election and the Obama's have signed a multi-year

deal.

That could take them right up to the election and it's likely, that they'll use the

platform to push people to vote for whomever the Democrat candidate is.

That idea has some critics of the Obama family who subscribe to Netflix expressed they were

disappointed, or upset that Netflix signed with them.

The reaction proves once again that politics mixing with entertainment is a complete disaster.

Some critics have expressed their disinterest in any programming involving the Obama's,

and stated that they simply won't watch it.

Others expressed that they'll just give it a poor rating and move on.

Some Netflix users have already canceled and moved to other streaming services.

CBS provided details on the Netflix and Obama partnership (which might spell doom for Netflix):

"Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama have signed a multi-year

agreement to produce films and series for Netflix, the streaming service announced Monday

in a tweet.

The deal potentially includes scripted series, unscripted series, docu-series, documentaries

and features.

Netflix said in a statement that the content will be available to its 125 million members

in 190 countries.

The Obamas have started Higher Ground Productions to produce their content for Netflix.

In a statement shared by Netflix, Obama said he and Michelle Obama "hope to cultivate

and curate the talented, inspiring, creative voices who are able to promote greater empathy

and understanding between peoples, and help them share their stories with the entire world."

In her statement, Michelle Obama said, "Netflix's unparalleled service is a natural fit for

the kinds of stories we want to share, and we look forward to starting this exciting

new partnership."

According to the New York Times, which first reported that the former president was in

negotiations with Netflix, Obama does not plan to use the shows to respond directly

to President Trump or to any of his political critics.

Obama senior adviser Eric Schultz told CBS News in March that the Obamas "have lifted

up stories of people whose efforts to make a difference are quietly changing the world

for the better," and as they considered their future plans, they would "explore

new ways help others tell and share their stories."

The Times also said of the negotiations in March that the deal could result in "a series

of high-profile shows that will provide him a global platform after his departure from

the White House."

Some believe that Netflix knew there might be a reaction from their users when they signed

the Obama's.

If people are reacting by canceling their subscription with Netflix, then Netflix might

be losing some of their income.

However, one could speculate that Netflix saw this reaction coming years ago when they

raised prices on certain tiers of their services.

The prices went up anywhere from $1 to $2 per month, not a huge increase per household,

but a nice increase for Netflix based on how many subscribers they have.

For example, one plan went from $11.99 to $13.99 – still cheap and much better than

a lot of cable programming, but one can ponder if Netflix saw their users being upset when

they signed with a political figure.

However, their pricing increase is most likely due to them offering more shows at high quality.

If Netflix were to keep their rates as they were, then some shows may not have been possible

– like the Obama show!

People need to remember that it cost money to produce shows at high quality and that

any subscription under $15 is still a good deal.

The other aspect of the Obama and Netflix deal is that the Obama's were once connected

to Harvey Weinstein.

People in the film industry, mostly the liberal celebrities, have always loved the Obama family.

However, the connections with the grimy alleged predator who looks like the second coming

of Shrek (Harvey Weinstein) have some people concerned.

In fact, Barack and Michelle's daughter Malia even had an internship with Harvey and

it's rumored that he might still owe her money.

TMZ provided this info: "Rumors began to swirl in March that 44 and the former First

Lady were in talks with Netflix, but the terms of the deal were still unclear.

The Obamas have always been champions of the film industry and at once had close ties with

Harvey Weinstein before all his sexual assault allegations surfaced.

Their daughter, Malia, even had an internship at the Weinstein Company."

PinevilleTavern - This is Bucks - Episode 9 - Duration: 2:31.

Food is special I think to everyone. You know they say - nostalgia comes from sight

it comes from smell, etc. and food really does hit home all those cylinders

I think that everybody kind of holds in their heart this sort of

collection gathering of people: aunts, uncles, cousins. When it...

comes down to it - at least in my family, it's all around food. My name is...

Drew Abruzzese, the chef/owner of the Pineville Tavern in Pineville, Pennsylvania.

The Pineville Tavern as a building has been operating since 1742. This was an..

old stagecoach stop out front here. It was the only road from Philadelphia to New York

before 95 existed. One of the quintessential phrases I hear is...

I've driven past this place a hundred times and I've never been in! It has this very

unassuming sort of residence look from the outside because that's what it was.

Everything comes from history. Everything comes from where it came from and I

think that every great dish on anyone's table comes from somewhere and someone.

and there's a story behind it. I'm the 5th generation making ravioli...

The 4th in this country, my son is number 6. We're making snapper soup from 300 years ago...

not because we don't have enough chicken or turkey or pork...

but because it's a tradition. Our crab cakes come from Baltimore.

We use almost no filler. Doesn't make a ton of money but

we sell 2x more crab cakes than we do any other entree. But anytime I go

anywhere people say, "Pineville Tavern! I love your..." and I go, "Eggrolls"

we took an egg roll wrapper and put buffalo chicken and cheddar cheese

inside of it and it just instantly took over selling more of those that we were

wings and who ever heard of that?! What's most important about the

menu and most important about the food here is that we maintain everything being

made from scratch: Salad dressings, soups we cut our own beef, we grind our own meat

for burgers, we butcher our own chicken and fish... I always say that

there's a very big difference between being trendy and being classical

we won't do anything that we don't feel is us! I'm making my great-great

grandmother's ravioli - which is different from her sister's ravioli and her cousin's

ravioli... I make THAT ravioli. My kids will make that ravioli.

Tradition to me is more important than profit at this point.
