Lets get one thing straight, I love guns. I think they are one of the most amazing tools I have ever seen. You take some power in a case with a projectile (round), make it explode, throw that projectile (bullet) downstream somewhat accurately, eject the case (if it has that feature), make a new round ready (if it has that feature), and repeat the process. The chamber that holds the case and the projectile temporarily is under amazing pressure when the powder explodes yet it is able to withstand that pressure for the most part to repeat the process. Yes there are many types of guns that have many different features. However, there is one thing that I said up front and that is a gun is a tool.
Like all tools that man has invented, it can be used for good or evil, Unfortunately in today’s society all we are seeing is the evil side, but guns have a good purpose as well. They allow a person to gather food and they allow a person to protect themselves or others. With a gun there it is no longer the strongest survive. However, like all tools they just do not get up and do stuff on their own with the exception of robotic type tools which are programmed.
With all homicides, note I did not say murder which is a form of homicide, the Democratic Government feels like it has to do something to protect the people. What they do not understand is that they are endangering the people by putting all these laws into place. No matter what law is put into place, the criminal will continue to break them. They are called criminals for a reason. They do not, have not, nor will they ever care about the laws of man. Those who are ignorant seem to think these laws will work, but how? They believe the government when the government says we need more laws, but I am asking you to think.
If you think the police will protect or stop the shootings or the laws will prevent this from happening again, then you do not understand the system. We do not live in the age of the “Minority Report” where murder/crime can be predicted. Yes there may be surveillance, but that information comes from somewhere. Police and Laws are meant to capture and punish a person after a crime has been committed. The laws may deter a person when they are borderline, but for the most part they are a response, that is punishment, for a crime that has been committed.
I know the police have been getting a lot of bad rap these days. Maybe it is deserved and then again maybe it is not. They are out there to protect, so when a crime has been committed they have to respond, but we have those individuals who think they are above the law and should not be punished. However, these individuals are getting punished to the extreme and society does not like the result.
Well in order to stop getting punished in this matter there are 2 options. The first is to stop committing the crimes and the other is to obey the officer after you have committed the crime, but the criminals do not want to do either of these. When the officer responds with deadly force, society these days seems to get very angry and thinks that this person who just killed someone, carrying a knife and acts in a threatening manner, points a fake gun at the office, beats the crap out of another leaving them for dead,etc is the victim.
Then we have those advocates who are saying you must be mentally stable to own a gun. Who is going to decide this? Man? Government? Who is going to define what is mentally stable? If I disagree and express my First Amendment Rights, will I be labeled as mentally unstable? If I practice Christianity, will I be labeled as an occult and declared mentally incompetent? Who will be able to own a gun in this situation? The rich? Government? This is a really bad plan and needs to be shot down at every opportunity by the people. Fight for your rights or lose them.
Then we have the Democratic party who is trying to sign some treaty with UN to control guns in America. These government officials say that it will not interfere with our rights, but I trust them as far as I can throw one of them. Remember the government lies to the people all the time. They do not want you to waste your time reading the treaty they propose, but I am encouraging you to again stand up for your rights.
When I say fight for your rights, I am not advocating violence. I am asking you to contact your representatives and express your dislike for their actions. I am asking you to vote these people out of office when they make bad decisions that will affect your kids, grand kids, great grand kids, and so on.
The current problem is that people are so self absorbed that they look at what they can get out of the government versus what the government is doing to the country as a whole. People have the attitude as long as I am taken care of, then who cares about that person.
The recent shooting in San Bernardino California has everyone up in arms talking about gun control again. What form of gun control do you think would prevent this type of killing? More background checks, how? Restricting ammunition, how? Taking away all the guns, how? I am really curious which form of gun control that is not in place already would prevent this type of killing? Of course the media jumps all over the fact that the weapon used is an AK47 or AR15 type rifle which gets everyone riled up. This is the medias intention as they sell drama. Stop this nonsense and think.
Now California like so many other Democratic states has very strict gun laws. They do not allow the magazine to be removed from weapons and they are restricted to 10 rounds. So how did these 2 obtain weapons that could cause such destruction? They modified legally purchased weapons to have detachable magazines according to some reports, but that is illegal. Shouldn’t the laws have prevented this type of shooting? The short answer is no and it never will prevent this from happening.
Those bent of killing others will do whatever they have to do to kill. If there are no guns available, they would seek other means. When peoples lives are in danger, the typical response is to run. So even if they had machetes, knives, axes, bats, or any other hand weapon most people would have tried to run only to end up getting killed. If they used another device such as an explosive, they could have ended up killing more. However, understand that a single death at the hands of another person, or homicide, that is not defensive in nature is unacceptable.
Eventually if we are not careful, there will be no police to capture the criminals and the civilians will have no guns to protect themselves. So what is it you want? The perfect world does not exist. So society has to decide i it wants complete chaos or some form of order? If all the guns and police officers are gone, who will protect the civilians of this great nation? The government? That is a very bad idea. If you do not think so, just go look at history where the government was the police.
The real culprit is Satan and his minions who are bent on destruction and evil acts. Please people open your eyes to see what is going on. Satan is gaining ground in this country at an alarming rate and people need to stand up and call out to the Lord for help.
I know I ranted a bit and I apologize. I want to reiterate that unjustifiable homicide is unacceptable by any means. I do believe that God wants and expects us to protect ourselves while we are loving our neighbor as our self. If you can talk a person out of harming you or a loved one, then by all means do so, but sometimes that is not a wise move. I pray that you will open your eyes to what is happening and I pray that God will speak to you in those times where you have to decide to take a life to protect yourself or another.
May God bless you.
