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.
