ReplyDeleteThis is a good post. The last point(#25)should be required reading for everyone that loves our great country.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you 100% on this one, sunnyinoc. You only forgot "If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns." But I do have several swords...and daggers...
ReplyDeleteI guess I could always throw my 18 pound cat at an intruder.
My idea of gun control is having the safety off and right in my hands.
ReplyDeleteWell, get ready because Obama has all kinds of ideas in mind:

ReplyDeleteActually, It was ratified in 1787.
Owning a gun is the easy part.
ReplyDeleteWE MUST LEARN FROM HISTORY
ReplyDelete"All Jews are to be disarmed. In the event of resistance they are to be shot immediately." - Joseph Goebbels.....
“Persons who, according to the Nuremberg law, are regarded as Jews, are forbidden to possess any weapon. Violators will be condemned to a concentration camp and imprisoned for a period of up to 20 years.” - Heinrich Himmler.....
"Germans who wish to use firearms should join the SS or the SA - ordinary citizens don't need guns, as their having guns doesn't serve the State." - Heinrich Himmler.....
"The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered races to have arms; history teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing." - Adolf Hitler.....
"All military type firearms are to be handed in immediately...The SS, SA and Stahlhelm give every responsible opportunity of campaigning with them. Therefore anyone who does not belong to one of the above-named organizations and who unjustifiably nevertheless keeps his weapon...must be regarded as an enemy of the national government."- SA Oberfuhrer of Bad Tolz, March, 1933.....
"Jews are prohibited from acquiring, possessing, and carrying firearms and ammunition, as well as truncheons or stabbing weapons. Those now possessing weapons and ammunition are at once to turn them over to the local police authority.Firearms and ammunition found in a Jew's possession will be forfeited to the government without compensation. Whoever willfully or negligently violates the provisions...will be punished with imprisonment and a fine."- Nazi Weapons Law of Nov. 11, 1938.....

I'm all for the right to bear arms, but don't belittle the police and 911 system.
