In the wake of the terrible massacre of school
children in Connecticut, all the anti-gun advocates and lobbyists once again
started an all out campaign to ban guns. And again they started their NRA smear
campaign and spin their lies, deception and distorted facts. The Progressive
Democrats in an effort to push their gun grabbing agenda are exploiting the
sorrow of the victims' families to stir the public into supporting their plan.
Within days President Barack Obama was calling for a “new conversation” about
gun control using the murdered children as an excuse to push his gun grabbing
policies. He isn’t looking for a “conversation”, his agenda is an all out ban
of private gun ownership. The truth of the matter is that Mr. Obama is part of
an elite group of influential people that believe the average citizen does not
have the right to own weapons. They must be subjects to the government and the
United Nations. Mr. Obama has expressed his distaste for the Constitution and
the 2nd Amendment time and again.
Senator Diane Feinstien of
California came out with a list of all types of semi-automatic rifles, pistols
and shotguns that should be banned. Many of which are standard rifles and
handguns millions of Americans already own. To pass this bill would make millions
of Americans immediate felons if they don’t turn these guns in. Step for step
this “gun grab” happened in Russia after the Russian revolution when the
Socialists took over. 20 million people paid for that lie.
The politicians with the help of the media are
putting all forms of gun control legislation on a fast track to try to pass
these bills while they have the emotions stirred in the people and before the
actual facts are released by the police. The media covers up the facts that
most gun violence is committed in cities and states that have the toughest gun
laws which blatantly show that gun control doesn’t work. Instead it puts the
“unarmed” citizens in danger instead. Connecticut is one of those strict gun
law states, yet there are murders almost daily in their cities. Gangs roam the
streets and prisons. The travesty of the situation is that the real problem is
not being addressed while the gun grabbers are wasting resources, time and
attention to push their personal agenda.
The killings at Sandy Hook school, the theater in
Colorado, New Mexico and the killings at Columbine high school were all done by
deranged mentally insane individuals that gained access to firearms. In most
cases the guns were stolen from a legal gun owner. These people were known by
authorities and/or family and friends to be mentally deranged yet nothing was
done about them. The medical profession failed to protect the public from them.
The legal system has also failed to address the issue placing the public at
continued risk. And family failed to keep firearms from their access. Add to
this the felons that are released from prisons because of “overcrowding” or
incompetent parole boards and you have a recipe for disaster.
In Cheshire, CT two of these felons tortured and
murdered a whole family leaving the father as the only survivor. They used
gasoline to burn the mother and her two daughters alive. Upon conviction they
get the death sentence but what does Connecticut do? They abolish the death
penalty. These two beasts will leach off the taxpayers for years and years
while the victims will never see justice.
Our Justice system is broken. Our judges have become
politically controlled and biased in their decisions. In many cases they have
legislated from the bench. Our Supreme Court has decided that they know better
than our founding fathers concerning the intent of the Constitution. The
rulings on the 2nd Amendment are a good example of this. Nowhere in
the 2nd Amendment does it say that government has any authority to
regulate and control the firearms that private Americans can own, yet time and
again states and the federal government have placed regulations and controls on
private ownership that to this day goes unchallenged in the courts. The judges
in the cases have ruled for gun control based on liberal bias and personal
agenda rather than the intent of our founding fathers to create a free citizen
that cannot be subjugated by the government.
It is understandable that a private citizen should
not be allowed the possession of military weapons of mass destruction, or heavy
artillery such as tanks, missiles or cannons. But any personal protective
firearm should be authorized without prejudice. Especially if you are up
against criminals with high capacity semi-automatic or fully automatic weapons.
Also, most home invasions are perpetrated by two or more invaders. Statistics
and common sense has shown time and again that gun regulation or banning guns
from private citizens does nothing to curb crime or minimize violence in
society. All it manages to accomplish is to disarm the citizens and make them
an easier target for criminals. Many states that have extensive gun control
laws have been found to have the highest gun related crime statistics. Problem
is the guns are in the hands of criminals rather than the law-abiding citizens.
However, gun control advocates continue to spread false information and distort
the statistics making the public think that if there were no guns than there
would be no gun crimes.
Unfortunately the criminal doesn’t follow that rule.
Also, if you look at where most gun violence and mass killings occur, you will
find that most were committed in “gun safe” zones. Or in other words, areas
where citizens cannot carry guns. I guess the criminals don’t follow that rule
either. Or they intentionally target that area knowing full well they won’t be
confronted by an armed citizen.
The bottom line is gun control doesn’t work. Never
has, never will. Criminals will find guns. Guns will be available on the black
market or smuggled into the country. Criminals will get automatic weapons
bigger and better than the police have. Citizens need to remain protected from
these predators. Citizens should be allowed to arm themselves with the latest
and best firearms made. That was the intent of our founding fathers. We were
never intended to be made subjugated to a nanny state as Bloomberg, Obama,
Holder or Malloy intend to keep us.
