Washington, DC—In the seat of
American political power, gun rights have been unlawfully compromised away by
our politicians for more than four decades.
The anti-gun rights attacks
have almost exclusively come from the far political Left. I see dark and nefarious motives here since
the political Left detests self-reliance, liberty and freedom except for of
course, abortion.
The Left insists the
Constitution needs to change with the political wind without that difficult
amendment process. The idea of the
founding fathers had was to prevent our Capitalist form of government from
being hijacked by those who would corrupt and destroy the system with a simple
majority.
Frankly, many of our
Presidents, Representatives and Senators are or have been Socialists,
Communists and of course criminals.
Unfortunately most politicians have the desire to control, exploit and
loot the property of others programed into their DNA.
Don’t let all those broad
similes and firm handshakes fool you.
They carefully craft their images to that of offering benevolence to
their constituents, but they are in this for themselves. They all enter office as middle-class people
and manage to leave or retire as multi-millionaires.
Politicians hate running for
reelection and they have conspired at every opportunity to rig the political
process. They invented extensive and
complicated gerrymandering and campaign finance schemes they sold voters as
necessary for “fair” elections. Their
only goal has been incumbent protection at all cost.
Governments work better for
the citizens when politicians are fighting among themselves. When they all get along the red flag of corruption
is waiving.
Look out when a Conservative
suddenly votes for excessive taxation or compromises our freedom away. That is a sure sign that bribery or extortion
is involved.
Too many of our politicians
would end elections in a flash if they had the power to do that. They are afraid of the voters especially when
they push extortionate taxation, over-regulation or curb our freedom. They all fear revolution as a reality.
The Right to Keep and Bear
Arms:
There has never been a
despotic dictator in world history that did not order draconian weapon laws or
ordered weapon confiscation. Our founding fathers understood this and the
necessity for an armed well-regulated population to fight tyranny.
Our politicians created our formal
police agencies during the mid-nineteenth century. Unfortunately the cops were not there to
protect anything but the corrupt politicians, their business operations and
wealth.
Police officers were strictly
hired on the patronage system and were too often used exclusively to victimize
their sponsor’s political opposition.
Cops became the bagmen for politicians, extorting from businesses legal
and otherwise.
To legitimize the cops they
had to be given an active role in public safety. In the large urban areas citizens were told
to abdicate their responsibilities of defending themselves and families to these
“much better qualified” armed government strangers wearing uniforms.
Americans were told never to
take the law into their own hands but to let the cops handle public
safety. Police professionalized their
image and training however when responding to urban violence they still have a
huge disadvantage. They can’t tell the
criminals from the good guys unlike you and your family members.
That failed and pathetic,
“leave it to the authorities” mindset was never so evident, then when a group
of skinny Islamic hijackers took over four passenger jets on September 11,
2001.
When cops respond to calls
involving life-threatening violence they still have a tendency to take the
losing injured parties to the hospital while arresting the uninjured
winners. The cops are not clairvoyant
and we have thousands of wrongful convictions to make this fact abundantly
clear.
Our law enforcement system is
way over-rated by films and television.
The fact is they only arrive after the crimes have occurred just in time
to clean up the mess. Then they conduct
an investigation but again they are forced to guess what the truth may be.
The only way to insure actual
protection for you and your family is through aggressive and positive
self-help. Weapons, training in their
use along with the law and liability of the justifiable use of deadly force are
your only option for survival.
That brings us to the
National Rifle Association and Second Amendment Foundation. They are supported by millions of members just
like me. The gun manufactures and
dealers have their own National Shooting Sports Foundation to service their political
needs.
The NRA’s millions of dues
paying members simply demand that our interests and gun rights be zealously and
uncompromisingly protected.
Some on the political
Left will suggest to follow the NRA money like there is something evil going
on. The fact is the NRA members and
their sympathizers care much more about their safety and liberty than money. Without liberty money is meaningless. Our money is far better spent on lobbying for and
supporting politicians that protect our rights.
Gun ownership has
never been higher in the USA and the crime rate has been steadily
declining.
Since the Supreme Court landmark Heller and
McDonald cases, gun laws have been struck down and repealed nearly everywhere.
The sky has not fallen. The fact is we are safer than ever. The guns our in our hands are far more
effective than some 911 operator on the phone.
American gun owners will
never again tolerate a Waco or Ruby Ridge holocaust conducted by bucket helmeted,
jackboot wearing government thugs.
The Supreme Court has
reaffirmed our rights and those politicians that foolishly try to violate our
rights will do so at their peril. Americans have always shown their willingness
to shed blood for precious liberty.
