Lack of Voices in our 2 Party System

As a response to a very astute observer to the US political scene, this gentleman noted that ..."there is a lack of voices in your 2 party system....."  he also rightly noted that it matters not who is in office.  the same things would still happen!

Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding!   You are right again!  There is a massive lack of voice in both parties, with the primary story line coming from only one or two in each - which is very frustrating.  That is why there are new voices emerging from outside these two mainstream parties - but discredited at every turn by a powerful media.

Now, the question is - has the process become so overwrought with big money, lobbying, campaign paybacks, and politicians who have made a career of Congress, etc.  that no real change or accountability is possible anymore, but rather a lumbering forward of two fossilized and gridlocked parties?  

It is hard for the small guys to catch a break.  So while there are voices trying to be heard, they get lost or are perceived as weakening or diluting the vote (especially for the conservatives), leaving our friends on the other side of the isle with a weaker opposition.  Our voices should become framed and galvanized into a more viable conversation that resonates broadly across the heartland - with the relevance most of us feel needs to be expressed.   

Our first leaders were passionate about liberty, overtaxing and weary of living under tyranny, with a lack of rights - and willing to go to war over it.  Or, they were uninterested in power, but willing to serve and build a Republic based upon true vision.   Today, we have lifetime privileges voted into law, by and for a new and paralyzing class of "public servants" - the politcrats.  We have laws being passed - rife with hidden assaults on personal liberties, and grants of power that accrue to the president under the guise of national security - passed at night, or on the weekends when only those interested in seeing it pass are present for the role call.   We are living more under more of a false fear today than ever - an unrealistic fear being foisted by a government and media that would propagate limits to our mobility (via "fuel costs" disguised as taxes), right to privacy, right to bear arms and other inalienable rights.  We have allowed ourselves to be economically vulnerable, internationally lacking in credibility due to a lack of strong foreign policy and rudderlessness as a society with the least accountability as I have ever seen in my lifetime.   In short we have slid, declined and weakened because of a kow-towing to liberal themes in order to gain acceptance on the world stage, or a desire to align with more liberal values in other cultures.   We have allowed the role of our president to become banal, and pedestrian.   I am saddened by the paths our country and leaders have chosen to accept because of a lack of conviction and personal courage and a desire to further their own careers.

Thoughts on “Assault Weapons” and “Magazine Limits” from an Actual Gun Expert

Thoughts on “Assault Weapons” and “Magazine Limits” from an Actual Gun Expert

School Shooting Epidemic -Author Malcolm Gladwell defines cause in his bestseller "The Tipping Point""

From his book, the Tipping Point, Gladwell sets forth the idea that the school shooting scenarios are actually an epidemic with teens based upon isolation, as follows (an excerpt):

THE RISE OF ISOLATION

Following the trend of school shootings in 2000, beginning with Columbine, Gladwell suggests that “these are epidemics in isolation: they follow a mysterious, internal script that makes sense only in the closed world that teenagers inhabit.” (268) (Cf. Hurt) There is, in this example, a fairly typical “standard form of contagious anxiety.” (270) This is similar to kids getting sick in school. “It’s important to realize that sometimes epidemic behavior among children does not have an identifiable and rational cause: the kids get sick because other kids got sick. The post-Coloumbine outbreak of school shootings is, in this sense, no different.” (270)

My sense is that the way adolescent society has evolved in recent years has increased the potential for this kind of isolation. We have given teens more money, so they can construct their own social and material worlds more easily. We have given them more time to spend among themselves — and less time in the company of adults. We have given them e-mail and beepers and, most of all, cellular phones, so that they can fill in all the dead spots in their day — dead spots that might once have been filled with the voices of adults — with the voices of their peers. That is a world ruled by the logic of word of mouth by the contagious messages that teens pass among themselves. Columbine is now the most prominent epidemic of isolation among teenagers. It will not be the last. (271)

Nobel Peace Prize Nominee: Obama Asks Military Leaders If They Will “Fire On US Citizens”

Shock claim purported to come from “one of America’s foremost military heroes”

2009 Nobel Peace Prize nominee Jim Garrow shockingly claims he was told by a top military veteran that the Obama administration’s “litmus test” for new military leaders is whether or not they will obey an order to fire on U.S. citizens.

Garrow was nominated three years ago for the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize and is the founder of The Pink Pagoda Girls, an organization dedicated to rescuing baby girls from “gendercide” in China. Garrow has been personally involved in “helping rescue more than 36,000 Chinese baby girls from death.” He is a public figure, not an anonymous voice on the Internet, which makes his claim all the more disturbing.

“I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new “litmus test” in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. Get ready to explode folks. “The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not”. Those who will not are being removed,” Garrow wrote on his Facebook page, later following up the post by adding the man who told him is, “one of America’s foremost military heroes,” whose goal in divulging the information was to “sound the alarm.”

Garrow’s claim is even more explosive given that the country is in the throes of a national debate about gun control, with gun rights advocates keen to insist that the founders put the second amendment in the Constitution primarily as a defense against government tyranny.

The Truth About Assault Weapons

Obamacare has hidden amendment preventing Gun and Ammo Registration!!

Right from the Breitbart News Page....   bit.ly/V7Tgho 

That’s right. It was put into the bill by Senator Harry Reid — in order to keep the NRA out of the Obamacare fight. Well, thank you Harry Reid? 

The Nevada senator, after all, is a fan of guns and firearms, believing them to be as American as baseball or football. 

Breitbart.com picked up on the story (which IJReview first learned of via The Right Scoop): 

It seems that in their haste to cram socialized medicine down the throats of the American people, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Barack Obama overlooked Senate amendment 3276, Sec. 2716, part c. 

According to reports, that amendment says the government cannot collect “any information relating to the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition.”
CNN is calling it “a gift to the nation’s powerful gun lobby.” 

So, even CNN has recognized the provision in the otherwise monstrous law. And now that the Republican Party has control of the House… well, sort of… there is no good reason for any of Feinstein’s gun laws to sail through Congress.

Wyoming Lawmakers Propose ‘Gun Protection’ Legislation

Wyoming's Ultimatum:

Gun Protection Laws proposed in Wyoming:  Firearms Protection Act!!

Several Wyoming lawmakers are proposing legislation designed to protect gun-owners from any potential federal firearm ban. The “Firearms Protection Act” bill, introduced this week, would make any federal law banning semi-automatic firearms or limiting the size of gun magazines unenforceable within the state’s boundaries

Anyone trying to enforce a federal gun ban could face felony charges under the proposal. It also includes a provision allowing the Wyoming Attorney General’s office to defend any state resident against any federal firearm ban.

Read the Complete 'Firearm Protection Act'

It's about time! I am shocked and saddened our conservative leadership has not stood up in this way before now. Instead we have been meekly trotting behind the cart. 

Until our representatives stand up and FIGHT for our LIBERTIES we will be relegated to carrying water for those who wish to continue to denegrate and decompose our 2nd Amendment rights in front of our very eyes and noses. Shame on us for not DEMANDING they stand up with opposing legislation that will counter EACH AND EVERY bill offered by gun-control/rights-limiters.

Not to mention giving away our Sovereignty to NATO via unfriendly treatys like Law of the Sea (L.O.S.T), Agenda 21, the failed Copenhagen Treaty, and others by "Globalists" and NGO's.

Calling all states:

Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, Kansas, Colorado, Montana, N. Dakota, S. Dakota, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, W. Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Missouri, Minnesota, Wisconsin - all need to MAN UP and support/demand their representatives produce counter legislation for gun protection!

The note I sent to my Representatives and Senators in Georgia tonight:

It is time to STAND up for our Liberties!

Please STAND UP and introduce GUN PROTECTION / PRESERVATION legislation to counter those Gun Control legislations and Presidential Orders and Measures to limit our rights to keep and bear arms.   

Also that add further red tape and restrictions to the purchase of legitimate weapons and ammunition.

Please also vote, and lobby against GUN CONTROL, which is a direct attack on our 2nd Amendment rights.

Do what ever you can to stop the systematic dismantling of our Constitutional Rights, our Liberties, and the fundamental values that we cherish.

          You are welcome to use this to help articulate your sentiments to your own representatives in Congress and the House of Reps.

Anti-A2 Sentiments Criminalize Patriots

Gun Appreciation Day set for Jan. 19th.  Libs Appalled...

Guess being a patriot has become more criminal. Without a law. Witch-hunting by anti-A2 lawmakers and Obama sychophants is underway. I am so sickened to see these times. Really nauseated.

These are the same idiots complaining in shock about their new taxes. How long before they realize what else they have done to themselves by reducing their own freedom(s).

2nd Amendment Rights - Perspective

In Response to my Post Below from Russian Author/Contributor to Pravda.ru, Stanislav Mishin.

1.) I know that many of you may not agree, but the purpose of this post is to encourage you to take the long view as to why our founding fathers chose to construct the 2nd Amendment. There are also many Americans who do agree.

The Russians, Australians and others have already been through this via several regimes, and can say that the regulation of arms or confiscation of arms will not stop crime, criminals or those who intend to inflict harm. Without the right to defend ourselves from tyranny, 'over-government' or any external or internal threat to our freedoms, we are but so much flotsam, and will be subject to any who chooses to challenge our liberty.

Why not examine and consider what they are all saying?

The above article is not to advocate any extreme or radical position (as many politicians and media would have us believe), rather it is a re-visit and understanding of the 2nd Amendment as a "due diligence" measure based upon reason and historical repetition of fact regarding governmental gun control. It is about governmental control, and losing yet another freedom for the sake of the "state".

Responsible people with arms will remain responsible and only use them appropriately. This is a proven fact. Those with intent to harm, or proven violent felons will find a way to have and use them inappropriately, and THIS is also a proven fact.

Whether you own a gun or not, it is a basic constitutional right, and the principle of being able to exercise that right - without the sense that you are 'out-of-line' or a potential criminal.

So please - let's not have this be an emotionally driven resolution based upon fear and ignorance. Rather, look at the facts.

2.) The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms. 

Our Bill of Rights is based upon the original English (British) Bill of Rights of 1689. "...The fifth and last auxiliary right of the subject, that I shall at present mention, is that of having arms for their defence, suitable to their condition and degree, and such as are allowed by law. Which is also declared by the same statute I W. & M. st.2. c.2. and is indeed a public allowance, under due restrictions, of the natural right of resistance and self-preservation, when the sanctions of society and laws are found insufficient to restrain the violence of oppression"

Our version was drafted as a further definition of those rights as colonists and those seeking to found a new Republic. AND after much debate and revision: 

The House voted on September 21, 1789 to accept the changes made by the Senate, but the amendment as finally entered into the House journal contained the additional words "necessary to":

"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."

On December 15, 1791, the Bill of Rights (the first ten amendments to the Constitution) was adopted, having been ratified by three-fourths of the States.

It was adopted on December 15, 1791, along with the rest of the Bill of Rights. The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess and carry firearms.[1]

As written originally:As passed by the Congress:

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.

As ratified by the States and authenticated by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State:

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.[8]

So let's keep in mind why we have a Second Amendment, it's origins, and its importance as a governance device.

3.)  I just cannot be quiet anymore. I hope and trust that logic, reason, due diligence, historic reviews, and all the metrics of responsible gun owners such as: 1.) they are 13 times LESS likey to commit a crime, 2.) are more law-abiding than those who have guns illegally, etc. and those metrics of killers, robbers, and general bad guys, not wild-eyed emotional knee-jerkisms to be politically correct or "doing something". The light of day will show the significant difference between the two. Lord, please deliver us from the demagogues.

4.) We cannot be intimidated.

Facebook is clearly dominated by leftist / liberals who are sycophants of the entire Demo legacy and progressive movements. At one point the Republicans were considered the "liberals" and the Democrats the conservatives. I am sticking to a belief system that may cross boundaries of each, but is based upon our country's original vision of liberty.

Either we cave in or continue to speak out and risk being 'unpopular'.

Anonymous friend:  Popularity has never been my thing, and I will always speak out about what I believe to be right. The brilliant and brave men who founded this nation had the foresight to realize that what they fought against could happen in the future, in the Constitution and Bill of Rights, gave us all of the freedoms and tools we needed to defend ourselves against a tyrannical government, or any other attacks on our personal freedoms. I won't cave, or be silenced in sharing my beliefs on this issue. If others don't care for my opinion, so be it. People that would cower in the corner, and accept whatever controls the government tries to impose on them, are not folks I want to associate with anyway...

5.) It will become more unpopular. This post is being ignored by all the liberals that are supposedly open minded, intellectual, have the abiity to decide for themselves. Completely vanished. No likes, no comments..... why? They know deep in their hearts I am right. They have forgotten the Pledge of Allegiance we were taught to say each day at school, which is now banned from practice. I am sickened to death by these pussy followers. They don't even understand their own party, much less have thought through their own (or accepted) belief systems that are being promulgated by State Media (MSNBC, CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, NPR, Public TV), "liberal/progressive" ..."Leaders"... who are working as hard and fast as possible to de-construct our country, beliefs, structure, documentation, and infrastructure.

Americans: Never give up your guns - Pravda.ru Article

Americans never give up your guns

28.12.2012

By Stanislav Mishin 

These days, there are few few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bare arms and use deadly force to defend one's self and possessions.

This will probably come as a total shock to most of my Western readers, but at one point, Russia was one of the most heavily armed societies on earth. This was, of course, when we were free under the Tsar. Weapons, from swords and spears to pistols, rifles and shotguns were everywhere, common items. People carried them concealed, they carried them holstered. Fighting knives were a prominent part of many traditional attires and those little tubes criss crossing on the costumes of Cossacks and various Caucasian peoples? Well those are bullet holders for rifles.

Various armies, such as the Poles, during the Смута (Times of Troubles), or Napoleon, or the Germans even as the Tsarist state collapsed under the weight of WW1 and Wall Street monies, found that holding Russian lands was much much harder than taking them and taking was no easy walk in the park but a blood bath all its own. In holding, one faced an extremely well armed and aggressive population Hell bent on exterminating or driving out the aggressor.

This well armed population was what allowed the various White factions to rise up, no matter how disorganized politically and militarily they were in 1918 and wage a savage civil war against the Reds. It should be noted that many of these armies were armed peasants, villagers, farmers and merchants, protecting their own. If it had not been for Washington's clandestine support of and for the Reds, history would have gone quite differently.

Moscow fell, for example, not from a lack of weapons to defend it, but from the lieing guile of the Reds. Ten thousand Reds took Moscow and were opposed only by some few hundreds of officer cadets and their instructors. Even then the battle was fierce and losses high. However, in the city alone, at that time, lived over 30,000 military officers (both active and retired), all with their own issued weapons and ammunition, plus tens of thousands of other citizens who were armed. The Soviets promised to leave them all alone if they did not intervene. They did not and for that were asked afterwards to come register themselves and their weapons: where they were promptly shot.

Of course being savages, murderers and liars does not mean being stupid and the Reds learned from their Civil War experience. One of the first things they did was to disarm the population. From that point, mass repression, mass arrests, mass deportations, mass murder, mass starvation were all a safe game for the powers that were. The worst they had to fear was a pitchfork in the guts or a knife in the back or the occasional hunting rifle. Not much for soldiers.

To this day, with the Soviet Union now dead 21 years, with a whole generation born and raised to adulthood without the SU, we are still denied our basic and traditional rights to self defense. Why? We are told that everyone would just start shooting each other and crime would be everywhere....but criminals are still armed and still murdering and to often, especially in the far regions, those criminals wear the uniforms of the police. The fact that everyone would start shooting is also laughable when statistics are examined.

While President Putin pushes through reforms, the local authorities, especially in our vast hinterland, do not feel they need to act like they work for the people. They do as they please, a tyrannical class who knows they have absolutely nothing to fear from a relatively unarmed population. This in turn breeds not respect but absolute contempt and often enough, criminal abuse.

For those of us fighting for our traditional rights, the US 2nd Amendment is a rare light in an ever darkening room. Governments will use the excuse of trying to protect the people from maniacs and crime, but are in reality, it is the bureaucrats protecting their power and position. In all cases where guns are banned, gun crime continues and often increases. As for maniacs, be it nuts with cars (NYC, Chapel Hill NC), swords (Japan), knives (China) or home made bombs (everywhere), insane people strike. They throw acid (Pakistan, UK), they throw fire bombs (France), they attack. What is worse, is, that the best way to stop a maniac is not psychology or jail or "talking to them", it is a bullet in the head, that is why they are a maniac, because they are incapable of living in reality or stopping themselves.

The excuse that people will start shooting each other is also plain and silly. So it is our politicians saying that our society is full of incapable adolescents who can never be trusted? Then, please explain how we can trust them or the police, who themselves grew up and came from the same culture?

No it is about power and a total power over the people. There is a lot of desire to bad mouth the Tsar, particularly by the Communists, who claim he was a tyrant, and yet under him we were armed and under the progressives disarmed. Do not be fooled by a belief that progressives, leftists hate guns. Oh, no, they do not. What they hate is guns in the hands of those who are not marching in lock step of their ideology. They hate guns in the hands of those who think for themselves and do not obey without question. They hate guns in those whom they have slated for a barrel to the back of the ear.

So, do not fall for the false promises and do not extinguish the light that is left to allow humanity a measure of self respect.

Marine to Gun Grabber Di Feinstein "No Ma'am'

Open letter to:

Senator Dianne Feinstein, 

    I will not register my weapons should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government's right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime. You ma'am have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am a Marine Corps Veteran of 8 years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one.
I am not your subject. I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.

I am the man who fought for my country. I am the man who learned. I am an American. You will not tell me that I must register my semi-automatic AR-15 because of the actions of some evil man.

I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.


We, the people, deserve better than you.
