Why should firearms be different than high-speed sports cars, alcohol or tobacco?

As these psychotics continue to shoot up public places - schools, churches, restaurants, and shopping malls - continuing to add to the tragic body count, the "usual suspects" (liberals, the media, etc) start up the predictable harping their usual cries for gun control. And as they do, they continue to display inconsistent logic, hypocritical standards and their whole lack of respect for and knowledge of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

They employ tactics like asking gun owners "Why do you need a fill the blank with the appropriate firearm or associated accessory?"

I would counter their question with a question: Do we question why someone buys a car capable going twice as fast as any speed limit anywhere? No, we are satisfied that because they want it, that’s good enough with the common sense to say if they misuse it and kill somebody (or several somebodies, they're going to jail). So, why should a semi-automatic weapon be any different?

Why do we allow someone to buy unlimited amounts of alcohol - on the face of it, way beyond the amount that one human could safely consume - and yet content ourselves with the common sense that if they overdrink and hurt somebody or somebodies they go to jail? Why would a semiautomatic firearm be any different?

And, it should be pointed out; there is no Constitutional right to purchase or own alcohol like the Second Amendment provides for firearms.

Why do we allow the sale of tobacco - a known carcinogen and literally a killer of millions - that has no positive benefit other than to quench someone else’s desire for it. Yet, we let people buy it without questioning why they do it. And they're allowed to buy it with no special permits, waiting periods or background checks. And when people misuse tobacco, nobody throws a hissy and calls for its ban. So why should a firearm be treated differently than tobacco.

And, remember; there is no Constitutional right to purchase or own alcohol like the Second Amendment provides for firearms.

Its called freedom and individual liberties and, oh yes, in the case of firearms it's the legal premise that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed” just like the Second Amendment in the Bill of RIGHTS to the US Constitution says.

Yet, one has to ask, why is it that liberals are oh-so-eager to deny those Constitutionally-protected rights of gun owners and/or to legislate them to death to the point they practially don’t exist? And why do they throw a hissy whenever anyone suggests a law requiring a valid ID to vote? Why should firearms be treated differently than the right to vote? "An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can."* (The Patriot)

Because, as these gun-grabbing liberals demonstrate more and more every day with their inconsistencies and lack of sound logic, to them “gun control” is only about getting more and more control over everyone else and has little or nothing at all to do with guns.

The only legitimate version of gun control is the one that allows you to hit what you’re aiming at.

Wake up, America. The usurpers and subversives haven’t gone away - far from it. PART ONE

Wake up, America - while there’s still time.

While we who truly love this once-great country dearly and want to save it from the hopelessly naive utopians likes of Bernie Sanders and the cancerous termite scum likes of Michael Moore, George Soros, may have been breathing a long overdue sigh of relief with the election of President Donald Trump, now is NOT the time. While we are all rolling up our sleeves and getting behind Trump as he strives to “Make America Great Again, our country is not out of danger yet - far from it!

The termites are actively eating away at the very foundation of our country to say nothing of the support beams and load-bearing walls holding up our freedoms.

This past year we may have been lulled into thinking the biggest obstacle to “MAGA” was motivating the largely spineless GOP Congress to actively and substantively backing Trump and the voting majority who elected him and his MAGA agenda into the Oval Office. We may have been lulled into thinking that sending Hillary Clinton home in defeat and denying her the presidency and the opportunity to further the destruction of America damn near accomplished by Barry Hussein Obama

Bill of rights ratified in 1791 it included first and second amendments that guaranteed - not allowed, but guaranteed!- the American public’s Constitutional rights (not privileges) to freely speak, assemble and worship along with the right to arm itself to protect itself from whatever threats needed - individual or otherwise.

Wake up, America. Do you see what’s been slowly but steadily been happening to those guaranteed rights the past 25 years?

Beginning in Hillary’s husband’s 8 years in power your rights of “Freedom of Religion” came under attack with proposals that tried to assail Christianity with oppressions that tried to make the simple wearing of cross/crucifix jewelry be considered actionable as “religious harassment.” (Remember that? Thankfully that failed to see fruition back then. But, would it nowadays?)

But the disease attacking our freedom of religion, while seemingly in remission the 8 years of George W. Bush was still silently at work to the point where during Obama’s regime freedom OF religion became interpreted to be freedom FROM religion. This manifested itself in continuing to ban school prayer right down to threatening sanctioning individual sports players who knelt in prayer or crossed themselves and pointed to heaven after scoring a great play for their team.

That’s just to mention a few liberal/progressive threats to the first amendment protection of our individual and corporate right to free worship.

Continue on to Part Two....

Wake up, America. The usurpers and subversives haven’t gone away - far from it. PART TWO

And look at what’s happened to free speech all this time! No longer “may sticks and stones break our bones but names will never hurt us.” Oh, no; now we have govt watchdogs and HR depts prosecuting people for “hate” speech (which seems more and more to be interpreted to be anything that liberals don’t like or disagree with).

And have you noticed what’s been happening to the concept in American juris prudence of “fair and equal justice?” What the hell IS a hate crime anyway? Apparently, a beating or a murder is not as bad when committed against individuals not meeting some “pet” demographic that liberals care about. A black perpetrator kills a white family in cold blood and, well, that’s just a simple murder. Or some psychotic Muslim US army psychiatrist shoots up a stateside army medical clinic, well, that’s not a hate crime or even terrorism, but simple “workplace violence.” But, let a couple white kids kill a black kid or a white cop shoot a black perpetrator during the commission of a crime and, well, we need a federal civil rights investigation because those kinds of situations might just damn well be a hate crime - as if a victim is any less beat up or less dead in one kind of homicide versus a “hate crime.”

Seems to me that murder (of anyone) is - on its face - a hate crime. But apparently not to liberals. It’s only a hate crime when racially motivated against blacks, illegal aliens, Muslims or homosexuals. How blatantly lopsided and biased can the law be made? The statues of a blindfolded Goddess Justice that adorns so many courthouses is being made schizophrenic with bias like that so prevalent in the Law.

Further, what’s happening to your right of Assembly? When Tea Party rallies started getting popular for a few years during the Obama regime, suddenly certain Tea Party leaders found themselves being audited by the IRS.


Now...being a patriotic American is - more and more - being blasphemed as "extremist," "right wing" and no longer "upstanding." Believing in the Constitution and it's Bill of Rights as written is sneered at as being a "literalist" and "outdated..." 

Continue on to Part Three...

Wake up, America. The usurpers and subversives haven’t gone away - far from it. PART THREE

Have you noticed how the past 10 years or so, the Second Amendment continues to get assailed. Most recently because of the outbreak of mass shootings from just plain mentally ill people or “home grown terrorism.”

One must pay very close attention to where the commas fall in the wording of the Second Amendment to the US Constitution – the second most-important part of your unalienable rights as guaranteed in the Bill of Rights:

A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Notice that it’s all one phrase between the commas guaranteeing “…, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms.” That’s you and me as in “We the people” as established in the Constitution’s Preamble.as the authors, benefactors and recipients of the rights laid out therein.

And, have you noticed? - slowly but surely and steadily they’re being hemmed in and taken away from us. An over-arching and overly-strong federal government restricting and taking away those very same rights were what the Declaration of Independence and America’s subsequent War For Independence and the later entire body of the Constitution document was all about – nay, is still all about.

And it was to absolutely guarantee those inalienable rights that the whole Bill of Rights to that Constitution was ratified and attached to it was all about – and is still all about.

But, our government has been willing to throw away our individual liberties more and more as liberalism/progressivism – nay, Communism by another name! – has more and more infected this once-great nation. And many of her citizens have been clamoring for this in hopes (or guise) of obtaining more security – in our schools, our shopping malls, our nightclubs and churches thereby embodying Benjamin Franklin’s famous words that “Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”


And this very same government actively pursuing as well as being pressured to enact stricter and stricter gun laws (like don’t we already have   laws against murdering people?) is the same federal govt that has blown it on entering the necessary information from some of their own investigations of these later-to-be-murderers that would’ve kept them from being able to legally purchase a firearm in the first place. And, oh yes; they want to watch law-abiding legal citizens of this country like you and me far more closely and deny us more and more right to self-protection.

Wake up, America - while there's still time!

A good lesson on the Constitution from...a crash dummy.

Gun Control for Dummies - It's Common Sense.

I bet that less than 1% of you know what the Third Amendment is, I didn't... This should clear up some logic used in our Constitution

Listen to the dummy! I did and learned something I had forgotten!!


Very interesting....
