Water is wet but if you are a racist water is dry.  We are entering a phase where in debate if you would like to end the conversation all you simply need to do is call the other person a racist.  The minute most of us hear this word being thrown at us we spend all the time in the world explaining how we aren't rather than debating the issue.  No one wants to be called a racist and simply let it go.  We need to start though.  In a fair country in a fair society anyone can say anything to anyone.  What we are seeing however is a velvet rope put up in debates by people.  These ropes sound something like this "You don't know what it's like being black" and vice versa.  The reality is a person of one race cannot know what it is like to be another but this does not mean they cannot speak about social issues.  What you are saying is that the other person has no powers of observation and needs to be your race or gender in order to even hold conversation with you.

First off calling someone a racist and then claiming they have no right to speak simply because of their skin color is about as racist as it gets.  Secondly skin color has absolutely nothing to do with facts.  If water is wet it is wet.  This fact does not change because a black man says it or a white man denies it.

when a fact is spoken in debate (and it is usually an ugly fact) and the other person does not want to acknowledge it as truth they simply call the other a racist.  It is like being a green star bellied sneetch from Dr. Seuss.  If you don't know what I am talking about watch this:

http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=dr+seuss+star+belly+sneetches&mid=0DCE10FE13F85503D8750DCE10FE13F85503D875&view=detail&FORM=VIRE3

So you see these green star bellied sneetches feel that they are above ridicule, above critique, above it all.  We all know that is ridiculous.  The same remains true in our society.  Some folks will not hear from those without a star-they are simply just that delusional.  Further still if a star bellied person is critical of them it becomes a game of "you hate yourself" and that sort of thing.  Of course any rational person on this planet can tell you that there is very little difference in humans as far as race goes.  We look different...that's it.  Somehow these same rational people think that alone is difference enough to discredit the other.  Even if water is wet; just say the magic word and it no longer is.

You Don't NEED a Gun; You Need Your Second Amendment

Public safety.  That is the lie we are fed when politicians are against the second amendment.  If law makers and politicians were so concerned with saving lives they would be legislating other issues that claim more lives every year than gun use.  If I were the moral crusader these folks pretend to be I would start with making automobiles safer and go from there-who am I kidding?  I'd take on Big Pharma but then again if they made me rich through bribes I may be less inclined but I digress.

A well organized militia being necessary the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed...

Bear means carry-sorry folks it does.  Get a dictionary if need be.  The reason why it was written this way was because our founders were quite aware of this notion of "bad people".  Bad people can be anything from your petty thief to a tyrannical government that employs the guillotine on folks they don't like.  So this amendment is meant to keep the bad people in check and the good guys breathing.  You would think everyone could agree this is a good thing.  You would be wrong.

Often times states rule that citizens cannot carry guns.  Police still can and police are well, after all is said and done...citizens.  So the right is treated like a privilege.  The state gets to pick and choose who gets this privilege like any sort of government "for" the people.  As long as you serve the state you are rewarded with "rights" that never belonged to the government for them to be able to take away in the first place!  We are told this has to happen in the name of public safety.  I cannot carry a gun but if a man is attacking me I should call a man with a gun to help me?  How does this keep me safe exactly?  Or even make sense?

I'm not going to waste time with other examples as to how the reason of public safety being nonsense.  No, let me tell you why some politicians want people to leave their guns home.  It would mess up the status quo.  Imagine a society where everyone of responsible age were armed.  Imagine this society watching the police shooting dogs or beating a man in handcuffs.  How long do you think this behavior would last before the public began pulling their guns and possibly firing at corrupt cops?

How many attempted assaults would end in dead criminals?
Unless you have been living under a rock you already know that jail is big business.  This country and private companies make a lot of money off sending people to prison.  If these folks died instead of being jailed the state would lose money.  Yes we need victims; people like you and me to suffer physically for the state to make money-shitty huh?  We're a cash commodity.  If we were able to defend ourselves it would result in less criminals and criminals stimulate the economy through the hiring of lawyers and so forth.  So there's that.

Guns grant physical power and thus carry immense moral responsibility. I do not advocate violence but I often hear from the anti gunners "Those who live by the sword die by the sword"  This is more crap that people don't understand.  What it literally means is anyone who lives a violent life is likely to die a violent death.  It is a warning to avoid crime and violence.  It does not mean if you own a "sword" you will likely be killed by one.  Live BY the sword...not those who own a sword.  Nice try.

Speaking of those who live by the sword... if the police were surrounded by armed citizens they would not be physically powerful.  They would be what they are designed to be.  Investigators and law enforcers.  Instead we are seeing police being gifted military surplus weapons and vehicles.  HUMVEEs and military grade rifles (often times the public is disallowed from owning the very same weapons-remember police serve the state so they get more rights than you.)  We are seeing a society that is not only obeying these false powers being "granted" to police but those who wish to give them even MORE power.  Let me remind everyone reading this that in 2005 The supreme court of the United States ruled that police are not and let me repeat that...are not installed for public safety but rather to uphold the law.  So these weapons and vehicles are not meant for your safety...

I am not allowed to carry a gun and the police are not responsible for my day to day safety-so how does this idea serve the interest of my safety again?  Who the hell is supposed to keep me safe then if I am not allowed to?  Are you starting to get the feeling that the government doesn't care about our physical well being?

An armed citizenry would regulate itself-it would render some positions of control obsolete.  This cannot happen since the powers that be are ever hungry for more.  So instead of obeying the foundation of this country and protecting my rights like they swore to do they tell me and everyone else "You havent deserved it" (my personal favorite) "why do you need (specific gun accessory or rifle?)" or according to states like California who literally say "it's too dangerous" yes folks exercising rights is too dangerous so they will just be stripped by your government for your own good of course (Also remember the government says it is not their responsibility for your safety ha-ha nice one guys).  Maybe one day our first amendment will be deemed too dangerous and simply removed?

The idea is to make the citizenry accepting of power.  Why do you think King George wanted to confiscate the guns in America?  A populace without arms is much easier to control and accepting of brutality and ill treatment.  I don't envision death camps or anything like that but let us peek out our window and see the police checkpoints, stop and frisk, NSA roving wire taps the list goes on.  Fishing for crime before it is committed is explicitly forbidden by our country's laws.  When the government is ignoring laws meant to keep the public safe from it-only bad things will follow.  Physical enforcing of these unconstitutional ideas seems plausible since there may be pockets or individual confrontations where folks resist.

What blows my mind is that some people are not only anti gun but also pro government power.  Two things America was never designed to be.  The truth is those who spout this nonsense are weak timid people who fear confrontation and want the government to keep them safe.  As we have seen the government could give less than a rat's ass about our safety.  They only want control.  By surrendering rights to them that are not theirs to take we consent to this perversion and enslavement of our minds.  The gun, the ultimate symbol of individual responsibility is rejected by a populace and government who wants nothing more than assimilation.

The Constitution Was Not Written With Common Sense in Mind

As the ink dried on the Constitution some good honest men went to bed oblivious to the fact that the left a fatal flaw in its design.  As good honest men these leaders did not fear the people.  How could or should they?  A citizen with a rifle was no threat to the founders since they were serving the interest of the people.  Could it be they thought this would always be the case?  Could they have thought that the government would always be in the people's corner?  A closer look reveals they did not think this.  A clause (paraphrased) reads that when a government becomes tyrannical the people have the duty and right to abolish that government.  So they did conceive that a government could turn on its people.  How then is it that the second amendment is so poorly thought out?

Most anti and some pro gun folks hawk on the word "militia" that pops up in the phrasing.  Militias weren't considered bad or evil by the founders; Ben Franklin even helped set one up.  Again, good honest men needn't fear an armed populace.  Militias usually operated with little to no government oversight or intrusion-in fact they were to work in tandem with the official army if need be.  Government has since broken away from that ideal.  The volunteer army stands apart from any and all civilian militias.  The closest thing we have is the national guard and again they are more or less a government force.  Furthermore the government monitors, raids, arrests, and even conducts sting operations on militias.  So in essence if I were to follow this amendment to a tee I would surrender some rights to gain one.  This is backwards thinking.  So if the founders envisioned the possibility of a corrupt government why then are there not stipulations or restrictions for government intrusion on militias?

Another curious thing I have noticed is that due to government intrusion and meddling a lot of gun manufacturers are fleeing their home states and seeking more gun friendly ground.  How is this possible?  I thought "shall not be infringed" was pretty clear?  Well it is but unfortunately that's the only protection we get. It doesn't say "...and if a government body does infringe on this right the people need to ignore the regulations and the lawmaker should be jailed for seven years."  There is zero repercussion or punishments listed for the violation of our rights...any and all of them. The most we get is some people scream that it is unconstitutional but the government keeps on truckin'.  Asking or expecting the government to stay out of an issue that was designed to restrict it's powers and protect the people from physical abuse is asinine.  We have guns to protect ourselves from tyranny, any encroachment on gun rights is considered tyranny, please government let us arm ourselves to keep you in check.  The founders expected them to just sit out?  It's like giving your car keys to a drunk guy and saying "Don't get in this car...I mean it-don't do it."

If you look at gun rights it is the most regulated monitored and scrutinized rights we have.  Indeed it is treated like a privilege at this point.  The government doesnt say we have to limit our word count on books or that I am only allowed X amount of time of free speech per day.  I suppose the ultimate fail safe switch was/is the will of the people to endure encroachments and violations.  After all it isn't the weapon it is the man who does the fighting.  

My Neighbor is Going to Kill Me!

MY NEIGHBOR IS GOING TO KILL ME

We all share this country-or try to any way.  It's a beautiful, chaotic cluster frag of an experiment in both social doctrine and self governance.  One of the lynch pins in this idea (whether you like it or not) is the fact that the citizenry can privately own firearms.  The reasons being are for hunting, protection from hostile citizens, and protection from government tyranny.  This seems like a simple idea and on the surface it is.  Beneath it is a huge amount of responsibility.  As with any freedom or liberty there is an individual responsibility to exercise that right without infringing on another citizen's.

Those who reject personal responsibility do not make good gun owners.  Often they stray from the idea of ownership entirely.  It is a huge power and responsibility to own a weapon that can take lives with a mere squeeze of a trigger.  Often this breeds an irrational fear into others.  They feel that because they are incapable of such a responsibility and power that everyone is.  These folks are the ones who appreciate and promote social sameness and removal of individual rights.  Everyone is just like me and I cannot handle this responsibility therefore it is a bad idea.

Another reason given for gun bans by those in favor is that I hear "People will go berserk".  Simply direct their attention to cities and neighborhoods with a high percentage of gun owners.  Ask them to filter through the amount of deaths that occur during a home invasion or mugging.  Disregard those figures since self defense is not a crime...at least not in my opinion.  Another one I hear often is "My neighbor will kill me!"  I always resort to a couple simple questions just after hearing this.  I ask "How do you know your neighbor will hurt you?  Have they threatened you already?"  This is a no win.  Should the answer be "no" you can more or less pat them on the shoulder because they are afraid of something they made up.

Indeed the fear is always made up.  It is never real.  Whose to say your neighbor is not already a gun owner and yet here you are espousing fear over something that will never happen.  Should the answer be yes you tell them to notify the police as this behavior is dangerous and illegal.  It also opens another window.  Ask them "Why have you not armed yourself if your life is in danger?"  Again they cannot say anything that bears a resemblance to rational thought.  It is counter intuitive to say that I deem my life precious but I will never take up arms to defend it.  How else can this be explained?  I am under threat of violence and instead of preparing for a possible altercation I labor to remove all guns from America?  Is that a speedy way to safety?  I wouldnt think so.  Even if your wish comes true and guns become illegal; what if your neighbor refuses to disarm?  You have solved nothing.  Your life is still in danger.

This mindset comes from the fact that I think those who say such nonsense are themselves violent people.  They think about hurting their neighbor or what it might be like.  In turn they project those thoughts and feelings onto others...remember we are all the same.  Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a thing.  It can make false things real and vice versa.  It really is the only way I can even attempt to explain this behavior.  A friend of mine is under the impression that should open carry become legal country wide there would be blood letting of epic proportions.  I suppose he doesnt know that some states allow it as well as concealed carry and yet no one with respect for that responsibility opens fire on another for a pair of sneakers.

Again it boils down to responsibility and morals.  I think people who favor a gun ban are themselves amoral.  They would see us disarmed i the face of crips and bloods.  If a maniac wants to break into my home and savagely rape my wife after murdering me then so be it-what could I do?  Call the police?  You mean call men with guns to come save me?  The pathetically veiled truth they present is "We don't want to see anyone else get hurt" but as you see in those two examples people will still get hurt.  It'll be the people who are responsible, moral, and virtuous enough to defend society from the nasty elements.    

Response to "Letter to All White People" This Is My Letter to SOME Black People

I am having a hard time watching my countrymen descend into madness over this Zimmerman trial.  Trayvon was shot and the outcry is that his shooter must be arrested.  NAACP and other organizations parachute into Florida and start demanding an arrest.  It's a funny thing when a group of people can point to a single person and say "violate HIS rights now" and the government listens.  They actually did it.  They listen and go arrest a man only because they are forced by organizations-not by justice or morality...they were bullied.  This must be that whole "blacks have no power and are ignored by the powers" thing I hear so much about.  But so be it.  (by the way this should be the first warning sign that this verdict will be an innocent one.  If the state thought they had a good case they would have arrested George before being bullied into it.)

So Florida grabs this Hispanic guy who has spent time with under privileged youths and offers him up to the mob.  In this country the individual is shielded by laws against vigilante justice and mob rule.  I know people think "Well if I get emotional and raise a stink-I should get what I want" wrong.  Being emotional does not make you right.  So what do we get-we get the million hoodie march and a bunch of brothers are hanging around buying up skittles and iced tea as if it will change anything.  It won't.  All it will do is make the companies who make hoodies skittles and iced tea richer.  That's it.  What are you trying to prove by buying food?  what does buying snacks have to do with...anything?  I haven't even gotten into the race bait that was thrown into this and how people are foaming at the mouth over it.  You'll want to hang around for that because it's a doozy ladies and gentlemen.

I see a lot of black folk throw racially charged debate around without a single peep from the PC crowd.  I think that's good I think PC is for no one.  With that said I am going to do the same thing these black folks are doing.  I am going to speak "out of bounds" beyond my race.  I am going to speak to black folks.  If they can tell me I am wrong I should be able to answer in a fair world.  None of you are going to like this.  But I dare you to tell me I am wrong.  Call me cracker honkey whatever but tell me what I am saying here is wrong-I dare you.

The utter hypocrisy my black brothers-the utter hypocrisy you display is blowing me and others away.  How on God's green Earth can you be this upset over the shooting of one man when your own brothers are shooting each other down in record numbers?  Oh yeah, it's a well known fact that a young black man's biggest enemy is another young black man.  You think I'm full of shit? who does the drive bys in your hood?  white people?  Who does the heated shootings because your girl is with another brother now?  White people?  Who does all those crips and bloods shootings? white people?  Shit, you know it deep down.

You stand there and scream when a hispanic man shoots a black but remain silent when Chicago violence has claimed hundreds of black lives this year alone.  How in the fuck can you be silent over that and when one dies in Florida all of a sudden "the whole country is racist?"  You are racist towards yourself brothers.  What you are saying is black life only matters and is only worth talking about when a non black takes that life.  YOU assign worth to yourselves by doing this.  You.  Black life is only worth something when a non black is involved in taking it-what a sad sack of shit.  I don't believe that for a second.  It isnt true but you-you're actions MAKE it true-and you do it to yourselves.  Or maybe you don't?

You see a lot of white folk with tons of honkey guilt come to the microphone and tell you to be upset.  They go so far as to tell you this man who shot our friend Trayvon is white.  He's as white as the "black" president most of you are so happy about.  So why isn't our president considered white, brothers?  Does it bother you or did you even know that George has black people in his very family?  Shit, does it even MATTER to you?  So the white people tell you to get mad-they even make up shit and send you out there and you go.  Like a slave you go.  Oh yeah I used that word-what do you call it when you do someone's work for no pay or benefit?

Yeah you still choose to be slaves to the white man because you do what he tells you to.  You go out there with your hoodie march and skittles making other people richer but shit why not just shine some fuckin shoes while you're out there doing the white man's work?  It's a lack of self respect brothers it's fucking embarrassing for you.  The buck dancing and shuck jiving the whites made you do back then for entertainment is replaced with this shit.  It's embarrassing brothers.  You believe black life is only worth protesting when a non black kills them.   You do what the white man tells you to-you even believe the white man's lie you convince yourself of it and act like a slave.

I see a lot of you saying stuff like "you're not black-you don't know" "white privilege" and all that kind of thing.  Let's start from the top.  I am not black I don't know what is like to be black-you're right.  But if you mean to tell me I can't observe and report you are saying I am stupid.  You are saying my opinion doesnt count BECAUSE I am white...but I'm racist.  You hear me brothers?  You hear how fucked up that is?  As far as white privilege goes when my taxes come in I pay the same as you-when I screw up at work I get fired like you.  When I go to the car dealership I do not get the "white discount" My credit card bill comes in every month and I have to pay it, I know this flies in the face of some of the shit you believe but now it's my turn-You're not white so you don't know.  When you say stuff like that what you are literally saying is "I am a victim and you dont know".  to that I say grow the fuck up we are all victims of something.

You think some shit happens to you just because you're black?  Probably, I wont deny EVERYONE in this country is free from racism.  But what the hell makes you think it's a one way street brothers?  I caught plenty of ass whoopins for being a little white boy in the hood where I grew up-oh yeah I only knew one other white kid.  You dont see me chanting about it or wrapping myself in it and saying feel bad for me.  You want to believe you're a victim? fine be weak but I aint having none of that and I won't feed that idea.  As I said we're all victims of something-pick your ass on up and get moving.  You can't blame the white folk for everything.

As I said who does the shooting in your hood?  When the police show up nobody says anything.  The code is "we take care of our own here"  Obviously not or else you wouldnt be shooting each other.  And when it happens and the police come it doesnt matter if the the police are white or black everyone shuts up.  How the fuck do you expect justice and arrests when no one says anything?  These killers stay on the loose and the only option you leave your community is to have another killer take him out.  But he's still a killer-still a bad man so it fixes nothing.  Wouldnt you rather tell the police and have arrests instead of more deaths?  Even anonymous tip lines-no one calls.  "No snitching" another invention you created that helps keep your own kind down brothers.  Come on man.  You sit there and say "There's a gun store on every corner".  You are right-I looked it up-you are right.  Gun stores are concentrated in your hoods.

My next question is who is MAKING you shoot each other?  The white man?  The white man is putting his hand around yours and pulling the trigger?  come on brothers you know that shit aint the truth.  Same thing with the drugs.  The white man may be dropping it off in your hood but who is selling to HIS OWN PEOPLE?  You sell your own people out for petty cash and say there aint no other way.  Shit, I know believe me I know.  I have been in those jobs and compared to the drug money it isnt anything.  But you forget you sell yourselves out when you enter the drug trade.  Even this cubby hole was your own doing.

Back in the civil rights era there were riots in your hoods.  Riots where some really bad shit happened.  White people who had the means and money (because they didnt come from generations of slaves) picked up and got out of town.  They took their businesses, stores, money and everything else they could with them.  This left a vacuum, a lot of empty stores rental property etc.  So what happened?  Walk through your neighborhood and count the businesses and restaurants owned by Koreans, Laotians, and other Asians.  You didnt capitalize on the situation.  Whitey owed you something.  Rather than move in on the property and make the moves to a better community...you waited-for what?  I hear the bullshit about why there are few black owned businesses in the hood-they say "We don't/didn't want to play the white man's game"  Making money for yourself is not playing anybody's game but your own.  How is it playing the white man's game if you are black, own a store, sell goods and services at a fair price to other blacks and give black people in your community more jobs?  Nah, this aint the white man's fault-you are just claiming victim-someone owes me something and even if I fuck up I'll just stand on my "blackness" and say it's because I wasn't going to play the white man's game.

it sounds good to some folks I guess.  But if you were for all things black again how is owning a business and empowering your black community with jobs NOT for all things black?  The white folks and the money have left your communities because of riots so now after Trayvon we want more riots?  Brothers you only break and destroy your own buses, houses, and schools.  It isnt like you roll into the suburbs and start trashing white people's stuff-no you trash your own to prove a point....to who-to the white man?  He laughs at you when you do this.  You don't want to be feared or thought of as a savage but the minute you hear something you dont like your leaders and white slave masters order you to destroy and you do.  But don't think of us as irrational, angry, and violent.  You shouldnt be afraid of us when walking down a dark alley.  Shit I am with you I fear no man but other people? they see all this shit on tv and what are they supposed to think?  They see you choosing to do this to yourselves, shit it doesnt get more irrational brothers.

I will bear no responsibility for this shit anymore.  You have been blaming the white man while breaking your own communities and killing each other.  I will no longer feel guilty for the actions of others.  It is fucking heart breaking-and I mean that word.  It is heart breaking to see this happen.  You are being manipulated by charlatans and slave masters and you don't even see it or want to see it.  I have been brought to tears over this.  We will never have togetherness and unity as long as we resist the truth.

  

George Bush and How he Lingers

Bush Policies and a List of Accomplishments



NDAA a law that authorizes the president to issue arrest orders, detain and hold American citizens indefinitely with only suspicion of crimes.

Renewal of the Patriot Act-on May 26 2011 the president renewed this law which includes (among other things) roving wiretaps, access to private records, and the ability to conduct "necessary surveillance" on American citizens without their consent or knowledge.

Benghazi Embassy attack-on September 11 2012 militants took to the streets in Libya set on attacking the American Embassy.  The president claims that a youtube video was offensive to Muslims and that is the reason for the attack.  The maker of the short film was arrested without charges.  Days later the president admits that the attack was pending regardless of the youtube video.  While shrouded in a cloud of controversy the president and other members of the government have refused to provide an accurate chain of events which ultimately led to the deaths of four Americans in that attack.  A lawsuit is pending as of this moment in order to subpoena government officials.  Even though the government has admitted that the youtube video is not to blame the maker of the film is still in prison without charges.

Fast and Furious-U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's secret mission to perform a sting on Mexican drug cartels.  Military grade weapons and full automatic rifles were sold and distributed to the Mexican drug cartels.  There were zero arrests made in this sting operation.  Mexican cartels then went on to murder citizens and others.

Executive order on Guns-Issued without Congressional approval.  Curtails the second amendment without a system of checks and balances.  While the constitution can be amended it requires a specific system and order of events for changes to take place.   An executive order while insufficient to overturn the constitution can still be written into law.

Supporting the Muslim Brotherhood with American tax dollars-the Muslim Brotherhood supports ideas that make women second class citizens and would either convert or kill those who do not adopt their religious beliefs.  While they are not officially recognized as a terrorist organization we should bear in mind neither is the KKK.  American tax dollars (roughly 250 million) have funded their war with organized governments in Egypt and Syria.

The infamous "Kill List"-the president has admitted that he keeps a running list of people that need to be terminated.  Yes, there are some U.S. citizens on the list.

U.S. Drone strikes used to kill American citizens without due process-according to the 5th amendment in the Bill of Rights no American is to be denied life liberty or property without due process (trial).  In Yemen three US citizens were killed via Drone strike by orders of the president.  Two weeks later a separate Drone strike killed another American citizen who was merely sixteen years old.  Not even old enough to be tried as an adult never mind executed.  All four were executed under suspicion of crime but with no trial.  While men went in to arrest or kill Osama Bin Laden the decision was made to execute these citizens without a trial by jury.  That's right we actually applied the proper procedure to a man who is supposedly responsible for three thousand deaths and denied that procedure to US citizens for mere suspicion of conspiracy to commit crimes.

This is the record of George Bush-the war criminal.  Well he WAS a war criminal I think we can all agree.  The thing about it is that this list?  These are some of the accomplishments of Barack Obama.  I think based on all this that the people who still stand with the president have to go through their rite of passage.  How it is that anyone can look at all of this and still think that this is proper conduct for a leader of the people is beyond me.  The president swears an oath to protect and defend the people's liberty when he is inaugurated as do all other public servants.  The government is supposed to serve the people an protect their liberties.  Economic policies aside can we really say that is true about the last 14 years?

Obama supporters need to make peace with the fact that his presidency is one of danger and seeks to limit the power and liberties of the American people while at the same time increasing the government's.  Thomas Jefferson so eloquently stated: "Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry."  Now think about that for a moment.  Is it legal for any of us to kill another citizen without a legal process?  No we call it murder.  Is it legal for us to distribute guns freely amongst drug cartels in another country thus adding more disorder, mayhem and murder to their society?  No that violates many laws.  Is it legal for the citizens to deny an inquest into the deaths of others?  No it is obstruction of justice.  Is it legal for any citizen to give other people's money to another group without their consent or approval?  No we call that theft.  Is it legal for us to draw up laws that restrain our government and allow us to spy on and lock them up when they violate us?  Actually yes at one time we did have that power as citizens.  It has slowly since been weakened and possibly removed.

Now the fringe elements are going to say Obama is great no matter what he does even if he were to personally set fire to their home.  Such is this man's charisma.  Those with at least a shred of morality and common sense can admit that this is all pretty horrible.  As Mark Twain once said "It is easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."  I think the problem is that Obama attracts a certain mindset.  He campaigned under HOPE.  How vague can we be really?  The vagueness is completely on purpose.  Whatever your political fantasy and American utopia was "HOPE" encompassed it.  CHANGE-again it works under the same guise as HOPE.

What is sad about it is that people once really did believe in those mottos and virtues.  The problem is that they are still waiting.  Still waiting for their utopia.  Some have given up, others still cling to hope and further still others believe we are almost there.  If you think dropping missiles on Americans without due process is ok-you are HOPEless.  You go to bed saying well they deserved it and it won't happen to me.  Your selfishness belies the fact that it shouldn't happen to ANYONE.

Liberals still cling to the (D) after Obama's name but really that's all there is left.  These are not the actions of a liberal.  I thought wars, missiles, covering up deaths, gun running, overt murder of citizens, kill lists, snatching the power to lock up whoever they want...I thought these were all characteristics of the right?  Are you adopting them or just fooling yourself still?

Save the Children!

Who's Going to Lookout for Billy?


The children!  What about the children! Save the children!  Who's thinking about the children?  Well, I don't often say this but to hell with the children.  By that of course I mean to hell with using children to bolster your position and gain and not the actual children.  The battle cry is the same as it ever was "I'm doing this for the kids and if you don't follow you're a bad person and a racist and bla bla bla".

Free condoms, birth control, and abortions for teens on tax payer dime?  The reason is that it is for their own safety.  Well ok, does that mean I am entitled to tax payer money to get my wife a pistol to keep in her purse? No? But it's for her protection!  I thought liberals were all about women's rights and equality.  Believe me a pistol in the face of an attacker more than makes her equal it empowers her.  So much for being consistent there eh?  Somehow when women are hoisted up by liberals they had better leave their guns behind.  What with it being their body but not being allowed to protect it.

You know while we are on the topic of abortion let's get into how destroying babies is cool but the right to protect my family isn't because you are afraid I'll loose my cool and hurt some kids one day.  If you really gave a damn about the kids you would first and foremost want to see them live to become kids.  I suppose if the abortionist's tools were black had scary laser sights and  a pistol grip we would want them banned?  Making laws against things you never even read about or handled in real life-smart.  But then again you did it with healthcare so what do I know?

If you gave a damn about my kids you'd have no problem with me keeping a sidearm in public for their safety as well as those around me.  You fear the wild west scenario but the other scenario is the one where only the good guy gets hurt and or dies.  Your plan for me is to sacrifice myself for my family rather than kill an intruder.  This is not how battles are won-no wonder you people suck at war so much.

If you cared so much about the children you wouldn't protect them with a sign that reads "gun free zone" as opposed to actual guards.  We guard the president and all other people of importance with guns.  We defend the gold and banks with guns.  We defend airports and other facilities with guns.  Know why?  They are effective at diffusing a situation before it starts.  No coward shooter wants targets to shoot back and just knowing that some places/people have that ability sometimes ends a would be conflict.  But no our kids do not get this right to be safe...good thing the money is though we'll need it for condoms for the 12 year old down the street.

If you had love for children you would also not want to restrict or ban the use of weapons in the home.  This roots back to the intruder thing up there.  My family is under protection when I am home thanks to my firearms.  If you take them away you put them and myself in harm's way.  I am willing to die for them but why make me do that?  So you can run a nice tear jerker the next day and say I was this and that?  Also you have no right to intrude in my family's affairs and how we run our home.  If we want to have "scary" black rifles for defense we should have every right to it just as much as the transgender folk down the road want to adopt.

This isn't about kids-call this what it is.  You have a gunphobia.  You have never been taught how they work and how to be safe with firearms or you just don't like what they do.  In either case you have no right to push that onto me and everyone else.  I think gays should be able to get married-I am not gay it is not my concern but I don't think I should get in the way of their constitutional rights.  You condemn homophobia while at the same time have no problem stuffing your gun fears down other people's throats and getting in the way of my constitutional rights.  Your opinions and fears do not justify the removal of my rights-you need much more than that.

I'm sorry the constitution is such a bummer for you.  It does not include healthcare, abortion, or wealth re-distribution.  The three things you seem to harp about all hours of the day.  It does however grant me the right to life liberty the pursuit of happiness the freedom from having my money stolen by social programs and the ability to keep weapons for use in the defense of my life and the ones I love.  The fact that idea enrages and upsets you so much is of course a concern for me.  Why do I fear background checks?  I don't.  Why do you want to keep me from weapons for self defense?  Is self defense a horrible idea to you?

When one adult tells another that they know what is best for them it is an insult.  You are saying "I am smarter than you-this is what you need to do instead."  Well if I am going to follow that lead excuse me while I adopt the teachings and words of guys like, Franklin, Madison, and Washington.  You would know them as "hacks".  Just let me know when your party draws up a better solution as to how to found a country.  On second thought-don't.
