"It's the Guns, Dammit!"

“Sigh! Another week hearing gunshots from all around Chicago! Chicago has some of the tightest 'gun laws' in the nation! where do they GET their guns? Guns are ILLEGAL in Chicago, for the most part” So how do so many Chicagoans wind up shooting each other? “What? You say criminals don't obey laws, so how can you expect to stop gun violence by passing a law? That's what those pro-gun idiots say. We'll keep passing the same kind of laws and hope it'll be different. Meanwhile, gun violence in Chicago will continue to be high and we'll wonder why. You say where law-abiding citizens are allowed to carry their own guns crime goes down? Don't be a fool! That's just an anomaly. We gotta find another way. Hmmmmm. Maybe if we designed a “gun spotter” so we could detect the guns while they're in people's pockets and take them away.” That's how the gun-grabbers think. It NEVER works, but they keep doing it, anyway. We need to fire those fools that do this and get some intelligent politicians in there. (Town Hall)

Getting Around the Constitution

Democrat Nadya Valesquez, A KNOWN socialist, introduced (with 12 others) a bill that, if it becomes law, will tax each gun sold (except that sold to government agencies) in the United States $100.00. The gun grabbers know they can't just BAN guns, so they want to make them unaffordable to the average American. They've also been trying to make laws to tax each BULLET, or eliminate ammunition altogether. Bullets don't have constitutional protection, but without them, guns are USELESS. Anything to “get around” the Constitution. They've suffered defeat every time they try to “get rid of guns” for the law-abiding citizen, so they try to make laws all around the edges to make guns useless. Using a “loophole” in constitutional law to defeat the constitutional protections on owning and using guns for self protection. One of the co-sponsors of the bill is Kieth Ellison, a Muslim saboteur in Congress. Notice that all the supporters are Democrats. (Freedom Outpost)

Incompetence In Office

It is being said that Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and Police Chief George turner are mentally deficient, since they seem to believe that guns, which are inanimate objects, have an “evil soul.” Inanimate objects don't HAVE “souls,” evil or otherwise, as such highly placed people ought to be intelligent enough to know. As this article says, neither man seems to have the intelligence or ability of logical thought to realize that guns don't have “souls,” evil or otherwise. Recently a law was made to require police agencies to return stolen and confiscated guns to their rightful owners or sell them at auction to wholesalers, who will in turn sell them to retailers, who will sell them, presumably, to law-abiding people. They have been “foot-dragging” ever since, thinking to do so would increase crime. Since the law didn't provide punishment for disobeying the law, they probably won't be punished. Though the mayor could be defeated in the next election, and the police chief fired by the new mayor. They are apparently unaware that gun ownership and carrying among the law-abiding REDUCES violent crime, everywhere it has been done. Considering that the Democrats (of which Reed is one) say Americans are racist, how many black elected politicians we have, especially in the south , is surprising. (Bearing Arms)

The "Anti-Rights Bigots"

That's what the “gun-grabbers” are. They don't like us having guns, so they want to take them away from us. It's typical liberalism. Find something YOU don't like, make a law to stop ANYBODY from doing it, because YOU don't like it. Put that together with their wish to make us DEPENDENT upon the government for everything, INCLUDING protection, and you have a typical liberal. Evil exists. There's evidence of that every day. The “gun-grabbing bigots” think the evil is in the gun. It is NOT. It is in the CRIMINALS who hold the guns, most of whom get their guns ILLEGALLY, from other criminals in a back alley somewhere. Then they go out and rob somebody, and in some cases, KILL them. Now THAT'S evil. It would be just as evil if they did it with a knife—or even their bare hands. Should they make laws to “cut off the hands” of people because those hands can kill? I say things like this over and over, but the gun-grabbing bigots never get it. Like most bigots, it's like a religion to them. If you speak against their “religion,” they howl, reject the premise, and continue on with their damfoolishness. Meanwhile, too many HONEST people who DO obey laws die because they're defenseless against illegally-armed criminals. It's all about POWER. Liberals think all power should rest with the government. An armed populace weakens that power. (Ammoland)

Wrong Basic Premise

There are a lot of contradictions in the theories maintained by the gun-grabbing bigots. Ayn Rand said, “If a contradiction exists, check your premises.” She is completely right, and the premises on which the gun-grabbing bigots rely are ALL contributing to contradictions. Their basic premise is that CRIMINALS (who obey NO laws) will turn right around and eschew the use of guns because of a LAW that says they can't be armed. That is ABSURD! It's an absurdity to even THINK that a CRIMINAL will obey ANY law. Their “profession” RELIES on violating the law. So to think a LAW will prevent their carrying a gun is STUPID. Yes, stupid. Ignorance is simply a lack of information. Stupidity is knowing that information, yet proceeding on your erroneous course, anyway. I get very tired of repeating this over and over and watching while gun-grabbing bigots ignore it, and get honest, law-abiding people killed. (Just common sense)

Liberals Are Scared

They lost a big one in Maine. Under a new law, more honest people will now be legally carrying their guns and be able to repulse the victimization of criminals with their own guns. The liberals say they're afraid crime will go up if more honest people are allowed to carry guns. But what they're really afraid of is that the crime rate will go DOWN, thus proving their fondest ideas a lie. Wherever honest people have been allowed to carry guns before, crime has PREDICTABLY gone down as honest citizens “kill off” the ILLEGALLY-armed criminals who try to victimize them. Of course, we have been SAYING this, all along, and the anti-gun fools have been calling US liars—all the time BECOMING liars when the results become known. One thing they forget (or ignore) is that LOTS of criminals already have guns, and they ARE committing crimes on defenseless citizens. Allowing honest, law-abiding citizens to be armed in self-defense is NOT going to cause an INCREASE in crime. On the contrary, it will cause a steep DECREASE. But they'll never admit that. They don't have the intelligence. (Second Amendment Insider)

"Guns Shock and Sicken Me"

I've run this before. But it's so good for illustrating the kind of people who are responsible for making the USELESS gun laws there are now, it rates running again so we won't forget. That’s what a Washington State Senator admitted during a hearing there. During the hearing, State Senator Jeannie Darneille of Tacoma frankly revealed what lies behind much of the support for I-594 and other gun control measures across the country. As captured by a video of the hearing, the senator told those assembled, ‘I am not a person who handles guns. I don’t own guns. I don’t…they shock me, quite frankly.’ ” And these fools are the ones who make laws that keep us from being able to defend ourselves against ILLEGAL guns. To a human being, guns are not frightening unless they’re in the hand of a criminal, aimed at you. Lying on a table with no human hand upon them, they’re like a rock; completely unable to harm anybody. But not to such as Sen. Darnelle. She really believes we can completely eliminate guns from existence by making a law. The fact we can’t is lost on her and people like her. Thus we get more and more laws that disarm us, but not the criminals and crazies who like to shoot up schools. (Daily Caller)

Typical Democrat Delusion

As usual, a Democrat will; blame everything BUT what it IS, for their failures. In Virginia, he solicited out-of-state anti-gun fools to infuse millions of dollars into the election so he could get the ONE seat he needed to pass legislation to make his citizens (the honest ones who OBEY laws) defenseless against the ILLEGAL guns in the hands of criminals and Islamic terrorists. Michael Bloomberg (former NY mayor) contributed $730,000.00. Their anti-gun stance caused a pro-Republican backlash that swamped them. Now McAuliffe is pretending he didn't base his entire election strategy on fighting the NRA, which won, BIG. I don't know what he actually basses it on—he doesn't say. Only that his anti-gun stance didn't cause it. Like most Democrats, he is good at self-delusion. (Bearing Arms)

Promoting Gun Sales

The best gun salespeople out there continue to be the anti-gun fools who want to confiscate our guns, contrary to their wishes. The more they whine about “gun control” and confiscating weapons, the more guns are bought, most of which are hidden so the cops CAN'T “come and get them” when the liberals in out government make a decree allowing it. The more they push for gun control, the more people learn that ”gun control” is hitting what you aim at. The more they agitate for something the American people are DETERMINED to keep, the more guns get sold. They hate that, but that's the inevitable result, when you're pushing something that a majority of the people are AGAINST. The more they push their insane ideas, the harder intelligent human beings push back. (Bearing Arms)

"It's the Media, Stupid!"

Now the media reporting on gun killings and suicides is responsible for the increase (really?) of the incidence of same. It's the usual case of liberals twisting things out of shape to “prove” their incomprehensible stupidities. Media REPORTS such things. They don't CAUSE it. But the anti-gun fools are too stupid to know that. They'll grab onto ANYTHING they think will advance their agenda to make all Americans defenseless against ANYBODY holding an ILLEGAL gun. Why anybody but the government would support making us defenseless is incomprehensible to me. I know why the government wants to do it: they don't want to meet guns in the hands of their future “victims” when THEY come to loot our property and money. (PLOS One)

Guns Are "Porn" Now?

The anti-gun fools will try anything. Now they're trying to say gun magazines are “porn” and are trying to get them banned from newsstands. In Atlanta, CBS criticized Wal-Mart, Kroger, and Publix stores for having “gun porn” on their shelves. Anti-gun fools will take up any stupidity in pursuit of their agenda to make Americans defenseless against criminals and soon the Islamic terrorists that Obama is importing by the thousands, soon millions, so they can bring their violence, raping, beheading, and child sex here. As in other places, they will want to shoot and kill everybody who is not their kind of Muslim, while screwing little boys and keeping them chained to their beds as “sex slaves,” which is a “cultural thing" with them. Meanwhile, if we let the anti-gun fools have their way, they'll kill us for disagreeing with them on ANYTHING. That's how they have so frightened our politicians that Muslim wishes are supported always, in opposition to what real Americans want. Either that or they're with THEM. (Breitbart)

Anti-Gun Fools Lose Again!

Bloomberg and McAuliffe are the biggest anti-gun fools in the country (outside of Obama, the Clintons and many other liberals) and they lost BIG in Virginia where they thought they had a comfortable majority. Republicans retained their majority in their legislature, which they thought would guarantee their every effort to steal guns from Americans. It's not surprising that Al Sharpie....er, uh, Sharpton is in favor of gun control. All criminals are in favor of gun control because they know that means fewer guns in the hands of their intended victims (honest people who OBEY laws) to be used against them. Bloomberg hoped to reverse recent losses in gun control, and McAuliffe made additional gun control measures the centerpiece of his own campaign efforts. Both lost, BIG. Bloomberg pumped millions into the Virginia race, and they lost, anyway. Maybe one day they'll figure out that they're going against the wishes of a majority of Americans. But I'm not holding my breath. Turning blue doesn't appeal to me. Like most liberals don't CARE about what the people want. It's what THEY want that counts, to them. (Breitbart)

Again and Again

Anti-gun fools like to say confidently that people who carry concealed NEVER accomplish anything to stop ILLEGALLY-armed criminals from doing their dirty work. And they're wrong, as usual. Why then, do we hear about such occurrences almost on a daily basis, somewhere? (If we read anything but the liberal media, that is). Like this case in Reading, PA, where three thugs tried to hold up a meat market. What a surprise they got when two employees drew their own guns and shot two of them, one of which died on the scene, and the other died later. The third one “took off for the tall timber,” and is probably STILL running. I predict violent crime will go down in Reading, with TWO violent criminals violently dead. The third one will probably not try it again (if, indeed, he has stopped running, far away from reading), because it is too dangerous. And other potential armed robbers likewise. Killing off all the armed criminals is an excellent way to reduce violent crime. They don't obey laws, but if they're dead, they have to. And the fewer armed criminals, the less violent crime. (Bearing Arms)

Ignoring "No-Gun Zones"

I've always said that “gun-free zones” do NOTHING to stop fools from bringing their guns into them to do their “dirty work.” In this case, TWO people ignored the “gun-free zone” in a hospital in Darby, PA. One, a mental patient, ignored it because he wanted to kill a bunch of people. The other, a doctor who worked there, ignored it because he knew there could be a person like that patient, who doesn't care about their “no gun policy”signs and he wanted to be able to defend himself, and others. True to his expectations, that patient brought a SHOTGUN into the hospital, which IS a “gun-free zone,” killed his caseworker, and almost killed this doctor—but he only grazed him, while the doctor shot him and seriously wounded him, ending his shooting spree. The doctor was right to ignore the “no-gun zone” signs, and is probably still alive because of it. It's too bad his aim wasn't better, so nobody would have to deal with this particular fool again. I hope the doctor doesn't get fired for “ignoring policy.” But as I say, “better fired than dead.” (Bearing Arms)

A Second Revolution?

A fact that most people do not know, because it isn't taught in schools, or even discussed in the liberal media is that the first American Revolution STARTED over the demand by the British that the colonists “turn in their guns.” The colonists were so incensed, they revolted. And they won, even though they only had a “rag-tag army” against the full might of the British army. Our incompetent politicians forget that, too, or never learned it, if they came up through a school system run by liberals. They're working as hard as they can, against STIFF opposition, to DISARM AMERICA. They lose at every turn, because this country DEMANDS to be able to defend itself. The Supreme Court is about to decide whether or not to take up Chicago's BAN on semi-automatic firearms. If they do, and find it to be unconstitutional (which it IS), it'll be okay. Business as usual. But if it upholds it, it may start the SECOND American Revolution. America is great, in part, BECAUSE Americans cannot be disarmed, as they have in foreign countries, which have no Second Amendment. (Bearing Arms)

As I Predicted

The family of the dead robber killed while trying to rob a small convenience store in Chicago is demanding the killer be charged with murder “because he shot too many times.” They're even suggesting the robbery might have even been a “Halloween prank gone wrong.” Chicago officials, ruling right, for once, say it didn't matter whether or not the robber's gun was real, he was brandishing it like it was, and it was a “good shooting.” They didn't take up a perfect opportunity to punish the man who stopped the robbery. Ordinarily, I'd expect such anti-gun fools to jump at the chance to make this into a crime on his part. Good on them! Chicago is a strange place for a “concealed carrier” to be so instrumental in stopping a robbery, due to Chicago's usual attempts to be as much of an obstacle to self-defense as they have usually been. The reason I gave for the family's attempt to make the shooter look bad was wrong, but the attempt was exactly right according to my prediction. Families never think their “boy” is a determined killer. His holding what even LOOKED like a gun in this case, proves it. (Daily Caller)

"It Doesn't Happen?"

That's what anti-gun fanatics say about concealed carriers stopping crime, hoping to make us think getting their own guns for self-defense is futile. Why then, do we see stories of exactly that happening every day in the news? Only in news media sources not a member of the liberal media, of course. They refuse to report such cases because they are counter to their “agenda” to disarm all Americans (for what reason I can't fathom). It happened again in Chicago, which has some of the tightest “gun laws” in the nation. A criminal gunman entered a convenience store to rob it and was killed by a legally-armed “concealed carrier” who was also in the store. One of the worst fears of those anti-gun fanatics is for people to discover their lies about this and other things related to “gun control.”

They think (rightly) that if a majority of people find out about their lies, they will know their entire campaign to keep us from defending ourselves is in danger when we learn the truth. Concealed carry is increasing in Illinois, in spite of the best efforts of incompetent Mayor Emanuel and (inept) Police Commissioner Gary McCarthy, whose answers to gun violence are always centered on the GUN, which is only a TOOL the criminals use to victimize us. Another of their fears is that we will take up use of the same tool to oppose them. (I expect the crime numbers in Illinois to go down precipitously in the future due to this, as being an armed robber becomes a more dangerous job, and more of them are killed). And for that not to be reported in the liberal; media. (Bearing Arms)

Media Strangely Silent

Three people were shot and killed in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and it's being “played up” by the liberal media as “yet another vicious mass killing.” Meanwhile, FIFTEEN people were shot and killed in Chicago since last weekend. But the liberal media are “strangely silent” about it. Maybe because it's “routine” in the city with some of the tightest “gun laws" in the nation. I'm sure the shooting statistics in other cities with tight “gun laws” were just as high. But the liberal media never reports it, because it doesn't advance their agenda to disarm ALL Americans and make them helpless against all the ILLEGALLY-ARMED criminals, who prey on them every day. This is probably one of the best illustrations of how the liberal media “tailors” the news to their agenda. Most of them failed to report the story of the “concealed carry” man who foiled a Chicago convenience robbery by killing the robber. That also doesn't advance their agenda. (Allen West)

Crushing Gun Control

To crush the gun control argument is simple, but only to people capable of using logic, facts, and reason. Liberals, by definition, have no idea what those are. In fact, some of them deny the very existence of logic and reason. They should be capable of using rational thought. If you offer logic and reason, and the person hesitates, even for a second, in agreeing, even though he/she may “give lip service” finally, to agreement, stop talking. Walk away. There is no reason to proceed, because none of your arguments will have any effect. According to the author of the article linked here, it would be like trying to teach a pig to ride a bicycle. It wastes your time, and irritates the pig. The logical fact is that the “gun control” usually practiced these days ignores the fact that current “gun control laws” literally only disarm the law-abiding people, since the criminals, by definition, don't OBEY laws. Gun control is tantamount to civilian disarmament, because it doesn't affect anybody else. Their gun control laws will NEVER stop a criminal from obtaining, and using a gun in the commission of a crime because he/she does not obey laws in the beginning.; Ask a gun control fool if a person has the right to self-defense. If he/she hesitates, even for a split second, before answering, walk away. Even if he/she says, “yes,” he/she's lying to you. And, since those people know nothing of logic or fact, and have no ability for rational thought, there's no use in pursuing it with this person. There are several other points, but I'll leave that to the author of this article. (Shooting Wire)

Their Worst Fear

The worst fear of the average strong-arm robber is to find out (too late, usually) that his intended victim has a gun, too. Usually as he realizes that he is about to DIE while the bullets penetrate his body. Criminals are the most ardent supporters of those supposed “gun laws” that keep law-abiding citizens unarmed, and “easy targets” for ILLEGALLY-armed criminals. They'll even tell you that, themselves. When Terrell Owens was confronted by an illegally-armed criminal, he pulled out his own gun and “went to work.” The “bad guy said, “Oh Sh-t, he's got his own gun!” Owens was uninjured in the attack,. The robber wasn't. He left a trail of blood as he ran to his (probably stolen) Mercedes-Benz SUV and disappeared from the scene. He was later found at a local hospital, having been shot in the butt. Too bad Owens didn't have better aim—or didn't use it. We could have dispensed with at least one armed criminal. As it is, he will probably continue his criminal life after he gets out of prison, many years in the future—unless he's then too old to do it. Potential mass shooters likewise choose “gun-free zones” in which to do their dirty work without opposition from an armed defender. They will be the first to tell you that, if you can get to them before somebody kills them when they arrive with their own guns. (Bearing Arms)
