Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

The Devil in firearm regulation isn't courts or legislation. The Devil's in gun owners.



We live in a country full of extremely well armed people. Some of whom believe it's their Constitutional right to kill public officials and destroy public buildings. 

We had air raid drills in my elementary school. Now children have intruder drills. My air raid drills were always drills. Now children have intruders spraying death with assault rifles and high capacity handguns. 

Every effort to contain the violence by regulating firearms will be met with more violence. 

Pat Sellers ran for 6th Congressional District in 1966 and again in 2010. He did better in 2010. Thank God he's in Texas now. 

Pat had Larry Pratt as a fundraiser and recommended reading William Pierce's books. Pratt wrote "Armed People Victorious" and Pierce led the National Alliance and wrote "The Turner Diaries" that inspired Timothy McVeigh. 

What I am getting at is I live with these people. I know how they think. Any attempt at making assault weapons or limiting firearms will trigger them to act. 

The anti-government weapons of choice are now assault rifles and high capacity magazine pistols. 

The way to curtail domestic terrorism, Jihadist or right wing terrorism and our everyday mass shootings is making assault rifles and high capacity magazine pistols illegal and creating a national registry of firearms. But doing that will make more people act against government. 

“Well, I think that standoff in Bunkerville, Nevada, was perhaps a canary in the coal mine and it told us that there is danger ahead,” Pratt responded. “But it also told the government that if you push too hard there will be pushback. And people did come with their guns and their ammunition and they were ready to shoot if the government attacked.” 
“That seems to me to have been a lesson that was being sent to the government,” he continued, “and right now I don’t think any Democrat, let alone Republican, wants to have that kind of situation where their view’s precipitating the outbreak of civil war. And we came very close to that. And it wouldn’t have been a civil war between the North and the South, this would have been a civil war between the people and the government.”

It's a conundrum. Leaving it be is bloody. Ending it is bloody.

  1. “It’s fun,” he said.

    His father, Jorge Pereira, said he did not share his brother Eddie’s love of guns but saw nothing wrong with it, 'and I’m a registered Democrat.'

    If there were no guns in the world already, he said, a ban on assault weapons might make sense. But now, he said, “
    'I’m not sure that a ban is going to do all that much.'

    What is more, he added, 'there’s a sizable population out there that would see it as a call to revolution."
