    Everyone should go and stand with their guns pointed at the Capital. Just to make a point.

    Huffy Post is claiming Gun Appreciation Day is sponsored by white supremacist.

    “Gun Appreciation Day Sponsored By American Third Position, White Supremacist Group”

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/18/gun-appreciation-day-_n_2502568.html?utm_hp_ref=politics

    But, if you take the time to go to Gun Appreciation’s web site you’ll find an article written by Dr. Jonathan David Farley, a black man.

    “Gun Appreciation Day is in the spirit of Malcolm X, who said, “Article number two of the constitutional amendments provides you and me the right to own a rifle or a shotgun. It is constitutionally legal to own a shotgun or a rifle…. [W]e don’t do anything illegal.”

    Gun Appreciation Day not only honors Martin Luther King, it honors Robert F. Williams, the Deacons for Defense, and the thousands of African-Americans like Secretary of State Colin Powell who got a chance at life, even success, because at some point they owned a rifle. If African-Americans had had the right to keep and bear arms from the founding of the republic, America today might be the promised land for African-Americans.

    Given a choice, would Malcolm X side with the NRA or today’s NAACP?”

    Please God, someone here pick this article up. This is HUGE. It isn’t the first West Point study to offend but this study specifically names “far-right” people as threats to the country. This is fucking WEST POINT generating these studies, so pardon me for drawing correlations but this whole charade is obviously coordinated. Massive gun “legislation” (edicts) and 24 hour media coverage for a month before the military all but points to a segment of the population and says “You, you’ve been identified. Take it as a warning. You know what we soon will do.” I may be naive but this sure seems like a battle line has been drawn.

    Scarey stuff Micro-Be.

    ““They also espouse strong convictions regarding the federal government, believing it to be corrupt and tyrannical, with a natural tendency to intrude on individuals’ civil and constitutional rights. Finally, they support civil activism, individual freedoms, and self-government.”
    ”
    Yep that’s us they’re talkin’ about. Seems we have a new name: “Anti-Federalists”,

    Puts us in pretty good company I’d say. Some well known Anti-Federalists of the past….Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams, George Mason, and Richard Henry Lee.

    Molon Labe?

    ~

    “When Fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and waving a Bible.”
    and shouting Molon Labe!

    The current Fascists aka the Oligarchy of Militarists, Corporatists, Plutocrats, and Banksters want to overthrow our Legitimate Representative Democratic State in which the public still has an illusion of power and a voice, through voting, and thus still a tiny possibility of exerting some control and power and regulation over them and their profits.

    They wish to instead install a totalitarian authoritarian Right Wing regime that would grossly favor their interests.

    To accomplish this they need to first discredit our current system.

    They do that by accusing it of exactly that which they intend to install.

    And simultaneously corrupting it by every means possible…bribery, extortion, redistricting, voter suppression, fraud, etc.

    *sigh*

    NBC Poll: Public Blames Parents, Hollywood Over Guns for Violence

    Americans place more blame for mass shootings on parents and Hollywood than they do on guns, a surprising new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll reveals.

    Asked how much responsibility several choices might bear for the shootings that have taken place in Tucson, Ariz.; Aurora, Colo.; and Newtown, Conn., guns came in fifth.

    The top choice was “parents not paying enough attention to what is going on in their children’s lives” — 83 percent said that was “a great deal” or a “good amount” responsible. Only 4 percent said “none at all.”

    The second choice, selected by 82 percent as “a great deal”
    or “a good amount,” was “the lack of effective treatment for mental illness.”

    Next came “the amount of media coverage of mass shootings,” at 67 percent.

    Fourth was “movies, television programs, and video games that portray violence and violent behavior,” chosen by 62 percent.

    Tied for fifth place at 59 percent each was “assault and military-style firearms being legal to purchase,” and “the availability of high capacity ammunition clips.”

    Another 49 percent blamed “the lack of security measures at schools, malls, and other places where people gather.”

    The poll also found that 56 percent believe the laws covering the sale of firearms should be stricter, compared with 42 percent who want them less strict or kept the same.

    However, support for stricter controls is significantly less today than it was during the 1990s, when more than 60 percent supported stricter laws, topping out at 78 percent in 1990.

    I read the Daily Kos essay. The person is a very confused, probably very young, idiot. It’s frightening. This must be a person who spent most of their life in school, with little or no real-world experience.

    My Brother’s Gunkeeper by Bill Tatro

    Recently, you spoke about your 23 executive orders regarding gun control, a highly charged issue that will foster great debate.

    I would just like to know if I fall under your proposal to “direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.”

    The written and spoken word is a very powerful weapon; does that make me a dangerous person?

    When most people were focusing on your executive orders, they were missing perhaps the most telling comment that you’ve made since you took office.

    You said, “we are all responsible for each other.”

    Mr. President, in communist collectives we are all responsible for each other and in socialist communes we are all responsible for each other.

    In the United States of America, as envisioned by our Founding Fathers; we are responsible to God, our country, our family, and ourselves and no one else.”

    Second Amendment Hyperbole by Christopher Merola

    “You would think that current gun laws failed to stop Adam Lanza from obtaining a firearm and that explains the reason for a new push for gun control laws. As it turns out, Lanza was turned down from buying a firearm when his background check revealed his mental state. Furthermore, Connecticut has one of the strongest gun control laws in the nation.”

  16. Thunderbird says:

    I believe that the massive social problems we are having is a direct result of peoples’ lack of a belief in God. And I would not be surprised to find out that all the mass killers in our society, including the recent one that killed all those children and teachers was an atheist without a belief in God. Without a belief in God insanity rules because there is no morals to guide our behavior.

    Think about this: If there is no such thing as God then there is no such thing as time. An atheist says there is no God because with our five physical senses and our internal senses we cannot sense any impressions of God. It is the same with time. These are concepts… real concepts that come out of our objective consciousness.

    With time we have developed the 24 hour clock, days of the week, months, years; all based on the rotation of the spheres in our solar system. Without the concept of time we would have chaos and our modern society would not be possible.

    With God we have morals and our unalienable rights. We have our system of justice and our commandments not to Kill, rape, take other people’s stuff, covet, and so on. With our belief in God we develop our conscience not to do these things. Religion, passed to us from past societies, contain these morals in the dogma they practiced. It gave sanity to thought; from which laws were developed with this moral foundation, which brought order for all to live by.

    How did morals come from God? It came through consciousness, that invisible image of God in us we were born with. The impressions of consciousness cannot be sensed by our five senses, but the impressions of it can be sensed by our inner sense. Our thoughts are given sanity by our acceptance of God with the morals this acceptance compels us to live by. Atheism having no morals to contribute to society allows thought to descend into mental illness or insanity. So atheism is contributing to our problem of mass murder and the State can’t fix it so in it’s atheist insane thought it thinks banning guns will fix the problem.

    Where are the morals in our administrative laws? Think about this good and hard! There are none. Our current laws are built on a foundation of sand because we have allowed atheists to craft them in our secular government. Administrative law is based on the arbitrary desires of man usually centered around money; not principle or morals.

    So we have mass murderers and random murderers flooding our society; who are in probability atheists because they follow no morals, and we are faced with having to admit mental illness is a problem, because insanity is the result of taking God out of our society.

    So who are we left with to solve our problem with this mess? The atheists that have promoted the problem of insanity by pushing to take God completely out of our society. And by the way, just because some politician professes to have a religious preference, doesn’t mean that they have a belief in God. Politicians lie.

    Atheists are more likely to become tyrants because they are not compelled to follow morals. This is what we have to understand about atheists in our society. They are more likely to run with the wolves which is what they are doing with gun control.

    So our main problem with the epidemic of murder and mass murder going on in our society today is not guns; but insane thought, which is the result of a lack of a belief in God. Violent video games in which the player is continuously killing is a symptom of this insane thought. Who in their right mind sits around playing these games? Does this contribute to anything other than killing? Is this not filling the mind with garbage? Some people claim that banning violent video games is against the first amendment. This is true. But also wasting a mind created by God to be developed for the glory of God, only to be polluted by violent video games is immoral. Is this what atheism promotes for the good of the community?

    The separation of church and state is a good thing because the state can then be free to tolerate all religions and create laws in tolerance with all customs.. But something sinister has happened to blacken this relationship between church and state. And that is we have allowed atheists (a form of anti-religion with no belief in God or morals associated with God) to dominate the State. Something our forefathers did not see. What we need to do is include atheism in this separation of church and state.

    We do not need anymore gun laws. We need more people to believe in God and the morals that go with that belief. The only thing more gun laws will do is cause more disrespect for the rule of law and put us closer to the rule of the jungle, because many will not comply with the new laws due to their immoral nature.

    When atheism rules, insanity rules.

    The solution is to abandon atheism and return to a belief in God. Laws that do not have a moral foundation contribute to insanity of thought among the people. Where is the moral base in the proposed new gun legislation? These new proposals are constructs of insane thought. Look at the people constructing them.

    Here’s a link you can use to send an email to YOUR representatives and ask them to support the 2nd Amendment. I did; and got a personal email back!

    All it takes for evil to rule the world is for a few good men (and women) to stand by and DO NOTHING.
