The true agenda of gun control


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.
