IT'S THE GUNS?????
LIBERALS ARE TOO STUPID TO SEE THE IDIOCY OF THEIR IDEAS
I saw a promo for the Samantha Bee talk show on tv that said the violence problem in our nation is guns. This puke is a looney libtard moron who is so full of hate for God, America, and the American way (liberty) that she can't be even remotely rational. She also hates President Trump with a passion that is just as evil as it is irrational. Liberals want all of us defenseless in the face of evil despite the abundance of examples that prove their premise not only incorrect but downright stupid. Baltimore, Maryland and Chicago, Illinois are famous for being "gun free zones", cities where no one is allowed to possess any kind of firearm yet are the gun murder meccas of America. Liberals contend only police and military should have access to firearms. That plan has worked out well in Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, and Communist China hasn't it????? Take a look at who is committing mass murder with guns, every one of them a liberal demonkrat. None of my guns has ever committed mass murder nor have I used one of my guns to commit any crime, much less mass murder. Guns ARE NOT the problem in America, never have been and never will be, unless of course, We the People lose the ability to defend ourselves from lunatic liberals or a despotic government such as demonkrats desire to impose on us. Sadly, many Americans have bought into the liberal lies and are not intelligent enough to see where the liberal agenda will take them. What America needs is a large dose of God back in the public forum. Since any reference to Jehovah or Jesus Christ have been outlawed by libtard morons we have seen evil explode. Liberals throw a hissy fit any time a Christian even thinks about speaking aloud about our beliefs but moslems can openly spout about their "god", allah, without so much as a raised eyebrow. The moslem major that murdered more than a dozen soldiers at Ft. Hood, Texas a few years ago, as in all school shootings, succeeded because there was no one who could stop it because "guns aren't allowed " in those areas. If gun free zones are so safe why does EVERY mass murder occur in one? I can't wait for a liberal to explain that one rationally. They won't even try because they know there is no intelligent explanation so they revert to their "ban guns" claptrap. I often wonder why liberals don't demand that police and military also give up guns, that way only Godless liberal crazies would have guns and they could murder anyone and everyone whenever they want to. I like a lot of the programs on TNT but am no longer going to watch that network because it is blatantly left wing and totally against liberty.
"Getting rid of guns" will not only not work, it wouldn't solve the problem of violence and murder if it could be done. Murder comes from a lack of moral direction not from access to guns. Libtards decry gun violence yet have condoned the mass murder of tens of millions of unborn children through abortion. Calling the murder of an unborn child under the lie of "a woman's right to choose" has severely cheapened life in liberal circles. Liberals have no respect for God given life but rather demand the exclusive right to decide who lives, who dies, and under what circumstances those decisions are made. Realistically, liberals expect everyone to bow to their demands no matter how ridiculous or how evil. Only returning to honoring Almighty God, Jehovah, will solve our nation's violence woes but liberals go into conniption fits at the idea of honoring the Creator of all things, including this nation. Our founders, or at least most of them, were devout Christians who sought God as they waged the military and political battles that resulted in the formation of our nation as a Constitutional Representative Republic. The USA IS NOT a democracy as some erroneously claim, it is a representative republic based on a Constitution that liberals hate because it guarantees the God-given rights listed for the benefit of all citizens, rights that liberals seek to deny to anyone not on their team. Other factors liberals refuse to acknowledge are the glorification of violence, especially as related to guns, in movies and video games
Solving the nation's slide into gun violence is an easy two-step process, first repent and turn to God, and second stop the incessant glorification of violence in movies and video games. It is sad that such simple solutions are beyond the capability of liberals to comprehend. One day Jesus is going to come back and rescue believers from the insanity imposed by liberals and leave them to stew in their own insanity while their "god", satan, torments them. . I pray daily asking God to remove the blinders on the eyes and hearts of liberals and to touch their hearts so they will turn to Him and save themselves and the nation from destruction.
I submit this in the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in faith, with the responsibility given to me by Almighty God to honor His work and not let it die from neglect.

Claremore, Oklahoma
September 1, 2019
August 26, 2019, may go down as a day in infamy when the courts allowed a frivolous lawsuit to squeeze through the bench on its way to attack the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. This has been a long-standing battle for the right to “keep and bear arms” as written and so vehemently defended by our Founding Fathers. The Honorable Judge Thad Balkman of the Cleveland County District Court just sent a volley of serious attacks against our freedoms that will forever change history.
Background
The Cleveland County District Court was destined to hear the case on Oklahoma’s opioid crisis, between the Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter (R) and the Conglomerate Johnson’s & Johnson’s subsidiary Jenssen. This has been a long-running trial now for over two years. Evidence was heard on both sides, documents, and witnesses from parents and partners of deceased opioid users.
After some intense deliberation, the Honorable Judge Thad Balkman handed down a verdict citing that the Defendants’ “actions caused harm” (1) “because those actions annoyed, injured or endangered the comfort, repose, health or safety of Oklahomans” (1). He ruled that the “drugmaker Johnson & Johnson helped ignite the state’s opioid crisis” (2). The judge then ordered $572 million to be paid by the Defendants, stating from the bench, “The opioid crisis has ravaged the state of Oklahoma and must be abated immediately” (1).
From the Trial
Before the trial was even set, the Oklahoma Attorney General asked the manufacturer to pay huge sums of money to settle the case outside of court. This is customary for many cases, as 97% of all civil cases settle before trial. The Oklahoma Attorney General asked for a sum of $17.5 billion in his lawsuit, far greater than a reasonable settlement. In mediation, this tactic is called the extortion offer.
I, for one, was watching most of the trial unfold, and am alarmed at how this verdict was reached. Witnesses were crying and sobbing as they remembered their loved ones slipping away or recounting how their loved one “didn’t want to die.” Playing on every channel during the trial were commercials touting these same losses and heartbreaks. This is sad and extremely painful to watch, but even more so for those that live through this catastrophe.
But is it Johnson & Johnson’s fault?
One individual recounted how their adult child started using pain killers (opioids) and continued even after they recovered. Another described how their loved one couldn’t get the opioids from the prescribing physician, so they resorted to stealing prescriptions and buying prescription medications illegally.
Every day, the trial showcased people who have suffered from the opioid epidemic, while also railing against the carelessness of Johnson & Johnson to allow people to become addicted to opioids.
One such commercial told a story of how their son started taking opioids after an injury and then continued to take the opioids afterward to get “high.” They go on further to say their son “didn’t want to die.”
Reality Check
How did the Honorable Judge Thad Balkman conclude that Johnson & Johnson was at fault for people unlawfully obtaining prescription medications and subsequently overdosing on them? Where was the prescribing physician? Was the physician still prescribing the opioid to the patients?
Where is the connection that led the Honorable Judge Thad Balkman to realize that Johnson & Johnson or its subsidiary Jenssen were in some manner giving out or prescribing a class 2 pharmaceutical?
When did a person “knowingly” allow their son to continue taking a high potent prescription medication to get “high” become the standard to penalize the manufacturer? This comes down to personal responsibility. If you eat MacDonald’s every day while not exercising, is it MacDonald’s fault for your potential health problems?
I have grave concerns that a Republican Attorney General and a Republican District Judge were moved by emotions rather than facts. Even if the manufacturer did not admit to the total addictiveness of the pharmaceutical, the facts do not link the manufacturer to the distribution, nor does they link the manufacturer to the prescription.
Opioids must be prescribed by an attending physician who is licensed and trained for years on the addictive nature of opioids. The medications can only be obtained by a prescription taken to a pharmacy to be dispensed. There have been more restrictive laws and double-checks in place for years to prevent unethical physicians from prescribing opioids. Removal of licensure, lawsuits and prison sentences have been handed down for medical physicians improperly prescribing high-level narcotics. Have we forgotten the Michael Jackson case?
Neither the unlawful purchase of someone else’s medication, the theft of another person’s prescription, nor the theft of personal property to sell or barter to obtain a class 2 pharmaceutical narcotic constitute a manufacturer’s liability to warn about addictiveness. It also doesn’t point to the manufacturer helping “ignite the state’s opioid crisis” (2).
The standard as stated by the Honorable Judge Thad Balkman, “actions annoyed, injured or endangered the comfort, repose, health or safety of Oklahoman’s” (1) is quite a slippery slope.
You can claim: the cashier was rude and this “annoyed” me — sue the produce manufacturer, the tire blowing out from a passing car “endangered my comfort” — sue the automotive manufacturer, or the steel manufacturer uses to produce the automotive, the smoke blown outside the door harmed my “health and safety” — smoke was from a jet flying above — sue the jet fuel manufacturer, and the alarm clock disturbed my “repose” — sue the plastics manufacturer who supplied the alarm clock housing.
The standard is too vague and broad, creating an umbrella law to attack anyone for anything, regardless of their connection to the “action.”
Our Court System
Our courts are made up of laws passed by the legislature for the betterment of society. They are made to uphold our Constitutions, both state and federal. The most noted of all laws are not cited; they are bench laws or precedent. Precedent is when a judge makes a ruling on a case.
These are our most dangerous and harmful laws we have in the country and why we are in such grave danger now. When a judge sets a precedent, every case coming afterward seeks to hold by that ruling. Once lawyers find a favorable precedent, they can appeal to the former judge’s findings and how they ruled. Now, that judge can choose to ignore the previous litigation, which will end up in an appeal for not following precedent; affirm the precedent and award in line with the former judge, which most commonly happens; or overrule the former judge’s ruling, creating the opportunity for further appeals to the superior court.
This is not easy as most litigants, present case excluded, do not have the tens for thousands of dollars to fight a case to the superior courts or all the way to the United States Supreme Court. People accept the ruling by precedent and are forced into servitude or bankruptcy.
A History of Fruitless Attacks on the American Constitution
Everyone remembers the MacDonald’s case where the person was burned with a scorching cup of coffee. What people do not understand is the case was not about hot coffee but under-insulated cups and improper lids when handing out 120-degree beverages. All we remember is a person was burned by coffee, and they were awarded a huge sum of money. This case has been cited as precedent in many later cases to justify penalizing companies for actions that may or may not truly be the Defendant’s fault.
This same burger giant was targeted again years later for “making people fat.” This spawned videos and antics where healthy people who worked out daily, ran marathons, and ate a moderate green diet went on an eating binge to consume thousands of calories more than usual. This led to ignorant findings that were touted to prove that the fast-food chain was knowingly harming the citizens.
We have all heard of the attacks on the auto manufactures for a half-century. When the vehicle is made improperly or defectively, the manufacturer absolutely bears responsibility. When the manufacturer knows of a defect and chooses to ignore the danger, the manufacturer is certainly liable. But it has been ruled many times that the automobile manufacturer does not bear guilt for driver error and weather conditions that exceed the manufacturer’s intended purpose. This case now opens the door for lawsuits against automobile manufacturers when someone drives 200 miles on the doughnut spare, and it blows out.
Everyone remembers the lawsuit to sue the ammunition manufactures for causing death because someone was shot and killed by a bullet built for “one purpose, to kill.” Well folks, all bullets are made to kill, not just some.
Now, certain groups are looking to sue the gun manufactures for someone deciding to commit a deadly act with a firearm. It wasn’t until later we found out the weapon was, in fact, illegally obtained by a person and then was used in an illegal act. I do believe this case was dropped due to lack of, you guessed it, precedent.
How this Affects Our Freedom and Second Amendment
There has been an attempt to hold gun manufacturers liable for mass murders and open the door for Red Flag gun laws for decades. Until now, they have not had a precedent for the extermination of our Second Amendment rights. This precedent has far surpassed the previously discussed attempts from the left to seize and prosecute law-abiding American manufacturers for acts outside of their control.
This dangerous precedent places an independent fifth-party manufacturer as liable for the actions, whether legal or illegal, of people whom the manufacturer has zero control over. Further, the manufacturer has no oversight, supervisory control, prescribing directive, or ability to consult before a prescription for the manufacture’s product is dispensed. Not only this, but there are a second-party intermediary (physician) and a third-party intermediary (pharmacist) who prescribe and procure the product for the user under the direction of established fourth-party healthcare regulatory bodies which lie outside the direction, control, supervision or oversight of the manufacturer.
With this awful tragedy of justice, anyone injured or killed from a firearm, whether that be an accident, suicide, or murder, now has precedent for claiming the manufacturer, not the actor nor seller nor distributor, was at fault for the injury or death, whether or not the firearm was obtained lawfully or illegally nor was the obtainer of the gun legally allowed under law to be in possession of a deadly weapon. This puts in place the direct link to attack the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America and our God-given right to keep and bear arms by extortion or trial.
Once someone is killed or injured, the prosecutor or litigating plaintiff will try to settle for millions or even billions of dollars from the manufacturer. This will be touted; “you see what happened to Johnson & Johnson.” This extortion is used in mediation cases every day as a bargaining chip.
It’s a “do as I say or else” threat that has teeth when there is precedent. Once the Honorable Judge Thad Balkman’s gavel cracked, people started lining up to extort funds from all types of manufacturers. It is said there are 30 other states’ attorneys general waiting for the ruling on the Oklahoma opioid case. They now have precedent for extortion of millions of dollars or retry Oklahoma’s Attorney General Mike Hunter’s extortion of $17.5 billion.
If extortion does not work, the legal team goes to work to set in place the precedent that “because those actions annoyed, injured or endangered the comfort, repose, health or safety” (1). This is a slippery slope that has devastating implications. You can now, theoretically, sue or extort money from an electric company because they manufactured the electricity that burned your hand off while you were stealing copper from a city transformer during a rainstorm.
We will see a surge in attacks to extort money from anyone and everyone in mediation and settlement conferences dealing with manufacturers from this date forward. Once they can attach a claim to the manufacturer for the production of a product, then they will have legal right to further restrict the purchase, use, access and carry of all weapons as a dangerous and harmful manufacturer is at fault for manufacturing (drugs, guns, ammo, cars, gasoline, etc.).
There have already been attacks on our gun manufacturers, especially Armalite, the manufacturer of the AR-style rifle. These attacks have waned even to get started because there was no precedent of a removed party manufacturer liability for the use or misuse of a product by an actor who obtained a firearm, whether legally or illegally, and acted with this firearm outside the manufacturer’s guidelines, but that has changed to society product. Once someone is injured or killed in a shooting, it will be open season. If you can claim the manufacturer was a fault for building the product, you can theoretically claim the school was at fault for being the place of the attack, the police were at fault for not stopping it, the parents were at fault for sending their children to school and the bus driver was liable because he transported the student with a weapon. These are all removed party unrelated uninvolved actors.
Conclusion
The first attack on our society, if this ruling is not quickly eviscerated, is the gun and ammunition manufacturers. They will extort billions for suicides to mass shootings touting this precedent. These cases are “bad law” and should not be upheld by the superior courts. This precedent has such a range of implications that we will see frivolous lawsuits and extorted mediation settlements for decades ranging into the billions on removed party product manufacturers whom will have no choice but to shut down due to liability or charge astronomical prices.
Our rights as citizens of the United States, especially here in Oklahoma, just took a back seat as we can no longer pursue happiness as entrepreneurs. We will forever be looking over our shoulder to see if the candle we made and sold to a distributor, who sold the candle to Walmart, bought by a person in another state, was left burning in a window with drapes when everyone left for ice cream and the wind blew the drapes over the flame and the stray cat under the porch died. This is the dangerous precedent that was set today in infamy.

"The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good" -- George Washington
The anti-Second Amendment Marxist, Barack Obama, relies upon attacks by terrorists or crazed lunatics to bring cries for bigger, more powerful government to protect us. It’s the same incessant cry always heard from tyrants; give up more freedom in exchange for a promise of security. Every leftist in the country follows Obama’s lead and shamefully exploits tragic events by madmen and terrorists. Consequently, to further their political agendas they do what they do best; attack lawful American gun owners and innocent people by grandstanding and self-aggrandizing.
They use manipulative hyperbole, and emotional rhetoric to push for legislation that has proven repeatedly not only ineffective, but fatally destructive. Like vultures, these zealots immediately circle every despicable shooting by an outlaw, insane person, or terrorist, and use the tragedy and suffering of others to gain an upper hand in implementing their anti-gun tyranny.
These organized attacks are not just on firearms; they are indeed, personal attacks on every American’s freedom who dares defend themselves, their families, and their homes.
It’s obvious to even the densest anti-gun fanatic, that criminals ignore ALL gun-control laws. Therefore, it’s evident that the quest for additional limits on guns remains focused on disarming law-abiding citizens. The facts are irrefutable; restrictive gun legislation disarms or makes criminals of lawful Americans. In other words, gun control only restrains law-abiding Americans! Control of the people is the ultimate aim of all big governments.
Criminals rely on tyrannical government to disarm the public, thus allowing thugs and gangs unrestricted domination of our streets, neighborhoods, and cities. U.S. cities with the strictest gun laws have the highest crime and murder rates. Witness the Democrat-controlled cities of Chicago, Washington, DC, Detroit, Baltimore, and on, and on.
Americans must face reality; it’s apparent that over the last several years, the New Socialist Democrat Party is a mortal enemy of gun owners and the Second Amendment. It’s equally clear that further legislation amounts to placing a bull’s eye on the backs of innocent Americans gathered in gun-free zones, as well as those cowering in fear in their undefended homes.
None of the proposed laws by the fanatical left will reduce gun violence or murder rates in this country. However, under one plan, purchasing or selling a gun from a neighbor, friend, or relative, we would pay for a background check and hope for approval and blessing from the federal government. These extended background checks are another back door, roundabout attempt at registration that allows the government to know who owns guns, what type they are, and where to find them.
Not a word emanates from the mouths of Obama, or any Marxist about the real causes of crime and murder rates in this country. Most violence comes directly from inaction and misguided programs by federal, state, and local governments.
The free exercise of American rights under the Second Amendment does not cause violence.
Here are just a few of the shortcomings, incompetence, and corrupt bureaucracies of government that do result in lawless, senseless mayhem and murder:
• Failure of the liberal courts and the justice system in general to PUNISH criminals
• Failure to build more jails and prisons
• Early release and catch-and-release of criminals; including violent felons, and illegal aliens
• Plea-bargaining and reductions of sentences
• Left-wing lawmakers, state and federal, who consistently and shamefully twist, manipulate, and distort, every societal issue to bestow the victimhood label on criminals, not on real victims; innocent citizens
• Failure to address illegal aliens pouring over our border with drugs, guns, and human cargo
• Overcrowding of prisons, then release of illegals and felons to reduce the overflow
• A corrupt government-controlled educational system that, especially in the inner cities, fails to give young people even a rudimentary education and then dumps them on the streets without sufficient skills to compete in the world
• Gun-free zones that leave unarmed groups of people at the mercy of thugs or armed terrorists
For decades, few talked about long guns of any kind, rather the national discussion was on handguns. Then came the ban on scores of long guns, and Bush let the ban expire because evidence revealed the nation was no safer and there was no increase in mass killings after ten years. To leftists, firearms represent everything that’s evil. The unvarnished truth is that they believe the very existence of the Second Amendment is malevolent.
Concealed permits are under constant attack. By declaring gun-free zones and limiting where one can legally carry a weapon, tyrants hope to make it so restrictive as to make concealed permits worthless. With one such limit, only the most naïve, ignorant, and convoluted of liberal minds could imagine and implement a system of declaring schools as “gun-free zones” to prevent shootings.
Some notable quotes from Obama, the anti self-defense President, should tell everyone where the leftist-in-chief stands:
• “I am consistently on record and will continue on record as opposing concealed carry.”
• “I believe in keeping guns out of our inner cities.”
• “It’s a scandal that Bush didn’t renew the ‘assault weapon' ban.”
• “If you need 19 rounds to shoot a deer, you probably shouldn’t be hunting.”
Here are some notable votes by Obama:
• Voted to uphold civil actions and lawsuits against gun manufacturers, distributors, dealers, and importers of guns and ammunition.
• Voted to ban hundreds of common rifles and shotguns.
• Voted to uphold local gun bans in Illinois.
• Voted to uphold prosecution of people using guns in self-defense.
Obama and his Marxist cult know they cannot ban all gun rights at once any more than a boa can instantly kill and devour its prey. They do it slowly, one contraction at a time. It’s one more reason they must destroy our Constitution.
Little-by-little, one step at a time, Obama, and his ilk formulate their “reasonable rules.” Dictates which are, in reality, slow narrowing and constriction designed to squeeze the life from our Second Amendment and devour our guns.
Knowing what Obama said publicly, what’s in his writings, and knowing the history of the anti-gun radicals, does anyone believe them when they say, “Nobody is coming after your guns?” Disarming America is not a solution or answer for violence; rather it is one of the principal determining factors for the violence raging through the streets of this country. An unarmed nation is a nation on its knees, and that is exactly where the leftist tyrants want Americans.
The free exercise of American rights under the Second Amendment does not cause or exacerbate violence; It provides the same protection from evil-doers and dictatorial government envisioned by our Founders!
For one to see the tragic results of liberal politics and gun control that disarms lawful people, one needs to look at cities and states controlled by the New Democrat Socialist Party. Here, despots ban guns outright or restrict them as to make their right to own guns and defend themselves, a cruel joke. These areas throughout the country are microcosms of what liberals want for the rest of the country.
When liberal-progressive government is in control of peoples’ lives, they must keep citizens, disarmed, poor, uneducated, indoctrinated, and dependent. Take a stand against our government, the media, and the entertainment industry. Under no circumstances, allow them to cast their tyrannical, liberal, spell over this great land. Your personal safety is in YOUR hands; trust it to no one else!

Obama Tells a Rape Victim a Gun Won't Protect Her
Liberals like to talk about women’s rights but among those rights is, or should be, the second right enshrined in the Constitution’s Bill of Rights -- the right to keep and bear arms to protect one’s self. A woman’s body is her own, liberals tell us, and she has the right to choose to have an abortion. But the same liberals would deny women like Kimberly Corban the right to defend her body, and her children, with a firearm against the predators who lurk among us.

ObamaCare does not Trump the Second Amendment
Shredding the right to keep and bear arms has long been a goal of President Obama, the self-professed constitutional law professor who has long regarded the Constitution as an impediment to advancing his progressive agenda and acquiring as much federal power as possible. The rules he has announced are touted as “sensible gun restriction” are in fact a shameless gun grab that violate the Constitution and patient-doctor confidentiality.

By Oscar Y. Harward
Amendment II: “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.”
President Obama, most ‘left-wing’ Capitol Hill Democrats, and many members of the ‘Main-stream’ Medias appear determined to weaken or destroy the 2nd Amendment of (y)our Constitution.
Imagine what it would be like if and when (y)our government denied you and me the right to own or even possess a gun for practicing target shooting.
Imagine what it would be like if and when (y)our government denied you and me the right to own or even possess a gun for hunting wildlife game for (y)our family nourishment.
Imagine what it would be like if and when (y)our government denied you and me the right to own or even possess a gun for protecting yourself and/or your family against a criminal’s home invasion.
Imagine what it would be like if and when (y)our government denied you and me the right to own or even possess a gun for protecting yourself and/or your family against a mutinous government; and perhaps, a government’s home invasion into your own household.
President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats fails to propose any legislation(s) to stop and/or prevent ‘law-breaking’ criminals from stealing guns and using these guns against ‘law-abiding’ citizens, and/or protecting yourself and/or your family against a mutinous government.
One cure is to leave our ‘law-abiding’ citizens alone for our guns to remain as a safety against criminals, and do not deny any changes to our 2nd Amendment.
A second cure is to restore and stiffen laws against lawbreakers who ‘illegally’ use guns in crimes. A murder conviction should and would again, mean the assailant is to get the ‘death’ penalty. That will stop the recurring action(s).
Thirdly, put God and our Holy Bible, our entire Constitutional history, the history of our Founding Fathers, as well as gun history and safety back into the ‘public’ schools.
Any and all Presidents, legislators, other appointed supervisors, etc. who attempt to violate and/or manipulate our Founding Fathers’ intent of our 2nd Amendment must be investigated. If evidence is found, he/she must be prosecuted. If convicted, the criminal must serve active time in prison.
(Y)our right to ‘keep and bear Arms’ discussions were referenced by our Founding Fathers as a protection for individuals, their families, and citizens’ protection ‘from’ a lawless and mutinous government.
As you talk to your family, friends, and neighbors, or see, hear, and read the political polls, many are starting to fear a mutinous government.
Americans are witnessing a ‘lawless’ Executive Branch of government.
“No freeman shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” -- Thomas Jefferson: Draft Virginia Constitution, 1776
“A free people ought not only to be armed but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well digested plan is requisite: And their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories, as tend to render them independent on others, for essential, particularly for military supplies.” -- George Washington's First Annual Message to Congress (January 8, 1790)
“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” -- Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759
Protect of our Second Amendment is essential to a free and open government. It was then and still is today; primarily intended to protect Americans from a mutinous government.
Tampering of the 2nd Amendment, in any way, is in violation of (y)our US Constitution.
God Bless America!
Greta van Susteren Comes out for Bullet Control
It is not a novel idea -- the notion that the route to gun control is not by attacking the right to bear arms which the U.S. Supreme Court has declared to be both an individual and a national right, but to use that old standby, regulation, to dry up the supply of bullets. It was that idea that was endorsed by Fox News host Greta Van Susteren when she appeared on ABC’s “This Week”:

The Answer To This Question Has Been Right In Front Of Our Faces For A Long Long Time. See If You Agree!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Method for Stopping Shooting Rampages Emerges
by Alan Korwin
The Uninvited Ombudsman
Hard evidence -- not doctor theories, news commentary, conjecture, hyperbole, rumor, innuendo or any other proposals -- clearly shows that the only known way to actually stop spree murderers is to shoot them -- or scare them into shooting themselves. Time and again society has found this works.
According to the evidence, every mass murder in recent times has been halted, in the final analysis, by shooting the murderers, or threatening to shoot them, with guns. Members of the press corps continue to debate the subject, despite the evidence. Sources speaking privately say the media consciously reject this fact. In stark contrast, self-defense incidents using guns are suppressed, by news-media policy, and do not appear on the public stage.
An excellent write up about the censorship of firearms used in self defense appears here --
http://www.wnd.com/2014/07/usa-today-ad-campaign-features-armed-heroes
and here --
http://dailycaller.com/2014/07/09/since-usa-today-wont-publish-good-gun-news-author-alan-korwin-publishes-advertorial-of-good-gun-news
Multiple reports of self-defense, accomplished by shooting criminals, appear as paid space in USA Today, which otherwise censors such reports:
http://www.gunlaws.com/TheFirstRespondersReport.htm
Although knowledgeable commentators are still debating the merits of shooting murderers, the visible evidence clearly demonstrates that shooting the perpetrators does take care of the problem. No other solutions have worked.
The only problem identified is the relative slowness of this effective remedy, due mainly to the delay in getting guns to the scene where innocent victims are assaulted. The scenes have virtually always been in supposed "gun-free zones," with posted signs flatly rejected by the perpetrators.
President Barack Hussein Obama, whose middle name is not supposed to be used, went on national TV, twice in the past week, to propose other solutions, which he announced as "politicized." He promised to "continue talking."
Further analysis conducted by The Uninvited Ombudsman, has determined that background checks, or newly proposed additional background checks, recommended by Mr. Obama and others, would be pointless for people who already own guns, since they already own guns. The best estimates indicate this is about 100 million armed Americans.
And in other analysis conducted by The Uninvited Ombudsman, waiting periods have no meaning whatsoever for Americans who already own guns, when they go shopping for guns, since they already own guns. That is also 100 million Americans.
Waiting periods have one additional drawback overlooked in mainstream reports. They require the public to trust psychotic individuals who wait five days to get their first gun, to remain calm for the balance of their lives. Somehow, the five-day waiting period doesn't seem like a long enough "cooling off" period, but this has not made it into nightly "news" reports, or the President's commentaries, for reasons that were unclear at press time.
The murderer in Oregon who sparked the recent repetitive debates owned more than a dozen guns, according to early reports, all legally acquired. While Hillary, Mr. Obama and others are still calling for more background checks, they have apparently failed to notice these obvious errors in their plan.
Only new, or "virgin" gun buyers would be affected, most of whom would pass checks anyway, according to leading experts and past experience. The point of adding even more checks, when current checks are not used to take criminals off the streets, was not clear as this report was prepped for release.
"News" commentators have also failed to make this connection, so far, and have repeated the calls from politicians on both sides of the aisle, who are discussing background checks and waiting periods.
The role of ultra-violent body-rending video games, horrific grizzly blood and all gore movies on nightly TV and a debasement of popular American culture at every level has not figured prominently into the president's prolific pronouncements.
The public -- not some famous vilified "the gun lobby" -- rises up loudly to condemn the assault on their fundamental civil and human rights. This is the same 100 million armed Americans mentioned earlier. Some reports suggest it is "only" 80 million armed Americans. The NRA, often cited as "the gun lobby," has only 5 million members.
Counter-Intuitive Man Says:
Referring to murderers as "gun men" is offensive to men, a violation of journalism ethics, due to its biased and prejudicial nature, and sexist.
Calling murderers "gun men" is virtually propaganda against men and firearms.
It denigrates men, it is derogatory, defamatory and it is discriminatory.
What would media and pundits say if a woman was the criminal perpetrator?
The correct terms include murderer, killer, villain, criminal, assailant and perpetrator, without gratuitously singling out gender.
By using the propaganda term "gun man," the media vilifies a tool they frequently demonstrate hatred for, along with men, which agenda-driven political groups seek to demean or belittle. That's simply wrong, and unethical.
Murderers should be called murderers, not gun men. This would help remove the glorification many mass murderers seek, which encourages others to copy their behavior.
By encouraging such behavior, the media shares responsibility for these acts, according to leading national experts, who are speaking out against such behavior in increasing numbers.

P.S. My previous request to the President, to have him call me for common-sense solutions he is not getting from his side of the aisle, has gone unanswered so far. I patiently await. The ideas coming from the TV set are so off base it is hard to imagine they are actually on the air. Has anyone considered education in the schools yet? Schools are currently an empty hole of ignorance on the subject.
