More control

I should not be surprised by this, but, it amazes me how much the battle for gun control is just outrageous.  Instead of punishing the government officials who were involved in the "Fast and Furious", our politicians just won't give up on trying to get guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens.   In this article: New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Sunday the shooting of former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords should have sparked a national dialogue about gun laws.


I am so tired of our politicians blaming everyone but themselves for the mess our country is in.  Yes, we are ALL to blame for this mess.  Our previous politicians have tried to brainwash us into thinking that whatever they do, they do for our "children", our "safety", and for our "best interest".  We sat back and let it all happen.  We have been so busy with ourselves, our children, and even sports to pay attention to what is going on around us as well as what has happened to us in the past.


Our Constitution, our Rights, our freedoms, and our beliefs are being attacked on a daily basis.  For centuries we have fought for our freedoms and our rights.  Now all that is being attacked and our freedoms have slowly been taken away from us as well as our rights.  Why have we allowed this to happen?  Have we forgotten all those men and women who fought and died for us to have what we have today, be for nothing?


I hear on a daily basis "There's nothing we can do about it".  That is just wrong.  Even though we may not be able to, or want to go into battle, but, will allow others to do the work for us, doesn't mean that we can't do anything about it.  We should educate ourselves and get involved with the political process and vote out those that have trampled over our Constitution, our rights, and our freedoms.  It is up to us, and only us, to fix this country.  We can no longer "trust" our government to take care of us. That is how we got here to begin with.  Why should we keep asking the politicians to fix things when they only make matters worse?

Guns and religion

Back in 2008, Obama made the comment "they cling to guns or religion".  See the video here.  No one is surprised at the attacks on religion. It has been going on since before Obama took office.  I remember having bible classes and/or bible readings at peoples homes many times.  Now the attacks on religion are coming into our homes.  According to this article, "The City of San Juan Capistrano, California is demanding that a Christian couple purchase a permit to hold a Bible study group in their home. They’ve already been fined"

Most of us know that our Constitution is slowing but surely being shredded.  Everyone has a God given right to worship in their home without government interference.  There is a constant battle with the ACLU whenever it comes to Christianity.  They constantly fight with the excuse of "separation of church and state."  Our government is so out of touch and out of control.  All they seem to see is getting more money out of us so they can spend more on what they want.

Now, also in California, "On Gov. Jerry Brown's desk is a bid to bar Californians from openly carrying firearms, legislation that could open a new front in the state's decades-old gun control debate.
The measure, aimed at an increasingly popular tactic used by 2nd Amendment activists, would make California the first state since 1987 to outlaw the controversial practice of publicly displaying a weapon."  Read the article here.

According to the Second Amendment of our Constitution it states: " 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."  Our right to bear Arms has been under attack for many years.  Our government does not want us to have guns, so they can control us and our country better.  With all the cuts that are being made by many States, police protection is being considered or has already been cut.  With this in mind, WE THE PEOPLE have the right to protect ourselves, our homes, and our property.

Yes, I will cling to my bible, for it gives me comfort and guidance.  I will cling to my gun in order to protect my family, myself, and my property.  I do not trust our government whether it be local or Federal to guide and comfort me.  I do not trust our government to protect my family, myself, or my property.  Nor do I want our government to interfere with my life, especially in my own home.

I am a responsible adult, like many other adults.  I know right from wrong.  I was raised to respect others and to make the right decisions for myself.  I am insulted every time our government think they know better than I do what I need, where I need it, when I need it, and how I need it.  I am insulted that our government think we are incompetent to make our own decisions.  I am insulted when our government think we don't know right from wrong.
