An Opinion About What 'Real' Life Is Like Today!

Here's the rub. We have returning vets selling their hard earned medals so that they may buy food and housing. We have a President that feels it more prudent to play a round of golf with Tiger Woods while the family of the most decorated military sniper in history is laid to rest-permanently. Obama has no problem putting people in harms way, yet hasn't the respect to pay tribute to our fallen soldiers. 

 

The Newtown shooting garnered more emotion. Yes that was a true tragedy. I would remind the reader that true tragedies occur daily during the conflicts that this country is involved in. The Newtown shooting was a horrific crime carried out by one severely disturbed individual. After the deed was done, all we heard about was the children. 

 

Little was mentioned about the fact the the Mother of the shooter was shot while trying to prevent her son from leaving the home. Obama then decides to surround himself with "the little children" while giving a news conference on his proposed gun legislation. You should be reminded that Adolf Hitler did the same thing with the children-just before all weapons were confiscated.

 

 

 

 

Let's look at the REAL facts. Gun sales have sky rocketed since his election. Ammo sales have quadrupled, concealed carry applications have gone through the roof and ATF has had to alter their procedures as a result of the volume of purchases. Whenever there is a Diane Feinstien type wanting to blame the weapon, gun and ammo sales peak. 

 

It will always be that way-Why? 

 

The media doesn't even use the proper language when it comes to weapons. Hi cap magazines that hold too many bullets. The bullet is just one part of the cartridge. The so called automatic assault weapons are not automatic, but it sure sounds scary. Machine guns are full automatic weapons and there is a separate and expensive procedure to license and own one. 

 

Have you ever heard of a crime where a fully automatic machine gun was used? I didn't think so. You probably didn't hear about the would-be shooter in a Chicago school who was stopped by an ARMED guard in the school. Mainstream media doesn't like those stories. We wouldn't want to know about some one who was protected as a result of an armed person. 

 

Liberal media is as much to blame for these shootings as the shooter. Last night Joe Biden suggested for everyone to go and purchase a double barreled shotgun, and did so on the evening news! Just fire two blasts off the balcony! Thanks Joe, I feel much safer now.

 

 

 

 

Stopping gun violence is easy. You use a weapon in the commission of a crime and we publicly put you to death, within say, seven days. No excuses, no exclusions. It wouldn't take long to cure the problem. Eliminate so called "gun free zones". 

 

Those are places for dysfunctional cowards with weapons looking for immortality. Do not make that available to them. USE the laws in place and prosecute offenders. Build more prisons if needed. Socially unacceptable, you ask? Getting back to our Constitution and away from the slippery slide to Socialism is where this country needs to go, unless of course you desire a Government that will care for you-and if that's the case, try Russia, Cuba, or any number of Communist Countries. 

 

These steps along with not allowing welfare recipients to vote will be a step in bringing The Constitution back as THE document that has stood the test of time, pre Obama, Pelosi, Reed, and Fienstien. Concerned about the number of gun sales taking place? Obama is the number 1 reason-and the best gun salesman of all time. As far as Presidents go, that's not much of a legacy, but it is a great thing for the citizens of this Country.
