I HATE the retarded, inaccurate and downright mistreated argument on the issue of guns in the United States of America!
Something I cannot reiterate enough about those words in the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution is the fact WE the people have the right to own guns for the self-defense against the tyranny of the State, NOT to hunt, but to DEFEND. Now to drive home that point here is the words instituted in that sacred document written by our forefathers:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Now bearing this in mind, the fact remains we, more than ever should hold vigilance and keep that right, not for hunting or sport shooting…but for the inalienable right for SELF-DEFENSE!
In theory, if the Government was an honest (yeah, right as if!) body of participants, the idea of citizens having the power of bearing arms wouldn’t bother them one single bit. Only those who are crooked feel the need to take that away from the PEOPLE.
Do you not find it sickening that those same people who want to take your right to own a gun for self-defense happen to have armed guards?
Do you not question the fact that while our President has armed security at his daughters school, and then turns around tells our citizens they cannot?
He and the other politicians rallying against guns must think their importance and right to live is above ours.
Do you not find it a sick joke that the excuse for not having armed guards at schools is the cost to do so? I guess bombing people with drones takes all that money we should use here huh Mr. President!
I also find it a joke that those same Liberals who cry on and on about how unfair it is that 1% hold the power want US to give that right up due to the disgusting actions of a few sick and demented persons.
“Mao Zedong famously wrote that, “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” He was right. Violence is golden. Giving the state complete control of that power means giving one hundred percent of the power to the “one percent” who controls the corrupt state.
Men without guns are at the mercy of men who have guns. If the state controls all of the guns, the people are at the mercy of the state. All they can do is plead. Men who are not allowed access to the means to challenge tyranny are no longer free men. They are subjects, possibly even slaves. A country where the people have no power that matters can no longer call itself a free country. A state where the people must rely on the benevolence of a small, all-powerful ruling class that maintains a complete monopoly on violence is a police state.
The police state controls the guns, and they use the guns to control you.
Gun control advocates are, in effect, advocating a police state.”

Don’t get me wrong, what happened at Sandy Hook was saddening, gut-wrenching and just terrible. Even for me, a person who lacks empathy (generally speaking, of course) felt sad for those parents.
I am also equally disgusted by the media’s usual yellow journalistic treatment of this event. Like the vultures they are, pandering to fear-mongering and jingoism without even putting the feelings of those parents into consideration.
Another stick in my crawl is these blowhard celebrities who want guns taken away. I find it hilarious the same people who live in gated communities, have armed guards at events (even at times in their abodes) have the gall to tell us plebes we are not good enough to defend ourselves and our families.
If you’re from another country, I’m sorry but your opinions in this are (usually) about as useful as a tit-job on a wild-boar. I respect the fact you have anti-gun legislation, but you are seeing this through the “eyes” of your culture. I am not saying this in some fit of ‘Murica-ism, I am saying this because what works in your country isn’t how it works the world round.
We have lived with guns as long as we have been a sovereign country, now if we gave up our guns, would that stop mass murders? Would that be a step towards ending corruption? NO, emphatically no.
END RANT.
