Obama, Biden, McCain and Schumer vow to enact gun control

Dear Brian:

This is an all-out EMERGENCY.

And unless you act today, I'm afraid we'll be staring at a gun control nightmare.

Yesterday, anti-gun California Senator Dianne Feinstein strode to the microphone demanding her colleagues pass a gun control bill -- immediately -- specifically her beloved “assault weapons ban.”

Powerful House Democrat Steny Hoyer urged his colleagues to “renew” the push in the House and Senate for gun control legislation.

Hordes of gun control lobbyists have spread out on Capitol Hill today looking for new Republican and Democrat support for gun control legislation.

But facts don’t matter to the gun-grabbers . . .

Whenever a tragedy -- a revolting grave crime -- is committed, gun-grabbers ALWAYS rush to "cash in."

Always.

New media now report that the shooter was armed with a shotgun, not an “AR-15” that Feinstein wants banned and turned in by the millions of Americans who own them for self-defense.

Of course you and I both know that no specific type of gun commits a crime. Criminals and thugs do.

Others in Washington, DC, and in state capitols across the country are banging the drums for more “Gun Free Zones,” ignoring the fact that yesterday’s shootings occurred in a secure government facility in a city where guns are banned.

“Gun Free Zone” signs do not protect anyone from violent madmen.

All these signs do is guarantee killers never face anyone who can defend his or herself.

And despite the fact that the shooter had a secret government security clearance, the gun-grabbers are demanding a renewed push in the U.S. Senate for expanded federal background checks on all Americans (national gun registry).

So with anti-gun fervor raging in the national media and anti-gunners demanding gun control right now, gun-grabbers are determined to strike while the iron is hot.

You and I both know what’s at stake here . . .

Expanded or Universal “background checks” (NATIONAL GUN REGISTRATION) remains at the top of the gun-grabbers’ priority list.

After all, the ability to CONFISCATE firearms from the American people -- the gun-grabbers’ ultimate goal -- rests on knowing who owns which guns.

That’s the real purpose of these “background checks.”

Without a database of gun owners, this scheme would be largely unenforceable. There would simply be no way for our federal government to know if any citizen had broken the law.

These “background checks” were a key part of the so-called Toomey-Manchin “compromise” and is central to the newly-drafted U.N. “Small Arms Treaty,” which could come before the Senate as early as this fall.

But there’s another threat out there that I’m afraid is growing by the day.

That’s so-called “Mental Health Restrictions,” which is really code for handing federal bureaucrats the ability to STRIP law-abiding gun owners of their Second Amendment rights on a whim without trial or due process.

And the gun-grabbers believe the groundwork has already been laid to classify as many Americans as possible as mentally unstable, including:

>>> News reports that nearly 30% of the nearly 900,000 Iraq and Afghanistan War vets treated by the Department of Veterans Affairs have been diagnosed with PTSD! This is in addition to the hundreds of thousands of vets who have already been “rewarded” for serving their country with the loss of their gun rights;

>>> New estimates by the World Health Organization that roughly one in five American youngsters will have some sort of mental health problems every year;

>>> Estimates by U.S. Surgeon General Steven Galson that 46.4% of Americans experience some sort of mental illness during their lives!

To the gun-grabbers, disarming up to 50% of the American population within a year or two’s time by declaring them “crazy” without ever going through a trial sounds like a dream come true!
The good news is, you and I can fight back.

But we must mobilize quickly.

If you want to ensure your Second Amendment rights are protected into the future, I'm counting on you to act IMMEDIATELY.

Being involved in the fight has never been more important.

First, I need your signed Second Amendment Protection Petition to help drown out the anti-gun spin machine with today.

In the coming weeks I'll flood Congress with tens of thousands of pro-gun petitions proving you and I are serious about protecting our rights and we're not backing down!

Obama, Biden, McCain and Schumer vow to enact gun control

We must ensure every politician in Washington, D.C. understands America does not need new gun control laws . . .

It's more freedom.

It's more good guys armed with the power and the ability to stand up to deranged bloodthirsty loons and STOP them.

You know how we'll make the politicians understand that?

By ensuring every single one of them knows they'll pay the price with their political careers for voting for gun control schemes.

But to do that I'm going to have to mobilize Second Amendment supporters from all over the country.

I've already authorized my staff to begin broadcasting our message across the web on sites frequented by politically-active pro-gun voters.

And we're expanding from there:

Mail, email, web videos, and even hard-hitting radio, newspaper and TV ads if I can raise the resources.

I want to mobilize up to 14 million Americans.

Not next month. Not next week. But NOW.

You see, there's no time to waste.

Of course, such an ambitious program won't be cheap. But it's our one shot at winning.

So please sign your Second Amendment Protection Petition TODAY.

Obama, Biden, McCain and Schumer vow to enact gun control

But also, please chip in $10 or $20.

Thanks in advance for answering the call in this tough time.

For Freedom,

Dudley Brown
Executive Vice President

P.S. The gun-grabbers just announced they're on the warpath -- and they're not taking any prisoners -- this is an all-out EMERGENCY.

With anti-gun politicians already calling for gun control, it's never been more important to fight back.

I've already begun a campaign to mobilize up to 14 million pro-gun Americans to prove to the politicians we still stand for the Second Amendment and we're not backing down!

But such an ambitious program isn't cheap.

So after you sign your Second Amendment Protection Petition please chip in $10 or $20.

Together you and I will weather this storm and continue to stand for freedom.

The incredible thing is that raising the debt ceiling is necessary to pay for expenditures that congress has previously passed! That's like getting your car fixed and then refusing to pay the bill. Does this reflect the morality of the far right wing?

We all have certainly come to accept the fact that the hallowed halls of academia are some of the places with the most liberal ideas. Perhaps the epitome of this is Harvard University, well-known and considered to be one of the bastions of liberal thought and ethics. This may surprise a lot of people then, but a study that came out of Harvard actually seems to prove the conservative view point on gun control. In fact, this study actually indicates that laws limiting the number of guns, or attempting to control their sale (or even banning them altogether) have no effect on reducing the levels of murder or other types of crime.

This study was published in the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy, a professional journal. It is not a Harvard University study by any means. The Journal publishes articles which met the Journal’s standards for publication, and that does not mean that they are endorsed by Harvard Univ. Kates is a lawyer who graduated from Harvard and has handled many significant cases in the country relating to the Second Amendment and self-defense civil rights. This subject remains his forte.
The article has a table showing murder and gun ownership rates. It does not show the gun ownership rate for the U. S. which is 89 per hundred people, a bit higher than the 39 per hundred for Finland, the highest shown in the Kates & Mauser table.

So you are saying since politics are our creation it is OK to discard our beliefs for it? Wow! Therefore it is Ok to murder, rape, steal, etc etc since we created them? I don't think so but that is my belief, obviously different than the democratic party right now.


This is some really sharp thinking, reelfishin

Christianity has nothing to do with politics. It has everything to do with believing in Jesus Christ and wanting to abide by His teachings. It would be hard to be a Democrat at this time and also be a Christian since this administration believes in and allows abortion plus other non Christian beliefs. That is my belief according to my religious upbringing. That doesn't mean you have to be a Republican. In life and in the Bible, there are no perfect humans so none of us live lives that parallel what God intended. Christians don't act very Christian like sometimes. Some are still clinging to human prejudices from generations past. These are all sins that are between you and Christ but make stone throwing very easy for both Christians and non. If you are a Christian, I believe you, personally have to ask yourself, when in doubt, if what you are questioning is in line with your religious beliefs or in conflict with them. Non Christians will never understand until they cross over to the light of Christ. If you are truly looking for an answer to your question and not just opinions, The Bible has all the answers.

I agree that Christianity SHOULD have nothing to do with politics. And certainly you don't have to be a Republican in order to be a Christian. If I recall right, there were Christians almost 2 thousand years before there were Republicans and Democrats! Also, I happen to know a Democrat or two who are against abortion, and have even heard of a Republican who is pro choice. Believe it or not.

I've hidden my car which has been registered for almost 10 years where the government will never find it. Now all I am worried about is my marriage which has been registered for so long that I've forgotten. Wait a minute. Maybe confiscation will be cheaper than divorce.

Some of those early Brownies had two aperture settings. There was a metal tab, a tiny one at the top of the box, over the lens. Pulling up on it (use a fingernail) gives you a smaller lens opening. I know this may or may not be useful to you but there it is.

Or cars racing through yellow lights? Or putting on makeup while driving? Or passing on the right in the city ?

Damn, I'd be 'the bad cop' I guess.

Nothing wrong with going through on yellow as long as you enter the intersection before light turns red.
