Surprise, Surprise!

Gallup had a poll about how Americans viewed the NRA and gun control and, wonder of wonders, they found out most Republicans viewed NRA favorably, while most Dumocrats viewed them unfavorably. (They needed a study to figure THAT out?) They also found that the “party gap” has QUADRUPLED since they began asking those questions in 1989. No kidding! Seems to me they just didn’t find as many people to ask their questions in 1989 and, as they continued to ask them, they got more answers, leading to the “quadrupling” number. Frankly, I believe just as many people had similar opinions in 1989, but were not found and asked those questions. The anti-gun fools would have you believe that a majority of Americans are in favor of gun control. In fact, that’s what they tell you, among their other lies—such as the one that says people do NOT effectively defend themselves if they’re allowed to have guns for self defense.

Fact is, it happens all the time. But the liberal media refuses to cover it nationally, such instances remaining a “local story,” so the national consciousness is not told about them. Gun control is not about controlling the use of guns. It is about CONTROL. The ability to tell you that you CAN’T have, or use a gun for self defense. Yes, they CAN put criminals in jail when they find them with their illegal guns—when they find them, and IF they actually ENFORCE the already existing laws against getting guns illegally—which they often do NOT. They use those laws as “throwaways,” often dropping them in return for convictions in other crimes. If they would actually ENFORCE them, there would be fewer and fewer illegal gun owners on the streets. They’d be in jail for longer periods. But they’d rather take the “easy route.” (Town Hall)
