Then what?



Knee-jerk response by elected officials in the wake of Sandy Hook has gun owners justifiably worried about the loss of our rights. Discussion of Civil War helps only our opposition.

Dear Leader loves nothing better than hearing disgruntled Americans talk about civil war, secession and other extreme responses to his policies and unconstitutional dictatorship that’s growing in power by the day. It’s in anticipation of such civil unrest that he’s directed the Department of Homeland Security to buy 1.6 BILLION rounds of mostly hollow point ammo during the past few months. If push comes to shove, they’re perfectly willing to kill millions of us.

Many Americans falsely believe that the North Vietnamese showed us that a motivated,  poorly armed, low-tech resistance can overcome a superpower; others see the Afghan’s successful resistance against the USSR as further proof of this principle. Hate to burst any bubbles of hope, but it was the hand-tying “rules” of engagement that kept our military forces from decisive victory in Vietnam! “Rules” like the one that kept our forces from pursuing and killing communist forces that ran across borders from Vietnam into Cambodia or Laos. Other “rules” kept us from bombing north of the so-called demilitarized zone, and from effectively destroying enemy supply lines. ellH Hell,  Lyndon Johnson paved the way for Russia to arm the North Vietnamese (How Democrat is that?)! After ten years of pulling punches—and the death of some 58,000 US soldiers (and some 3,000,000 communists) our politicians signed a “peace treaty” with the enemy. Afghanistan’s struggle with the Russians was a little different—for a GREAT account of that read “Charlie Wilson’s War”—forget the movie. The book goes into much more detail. The US military and the CIA armed and trained what would become the very army we’re fighting today. WE taught them how to make and use the IED’s that have wounded and killed so many of us in the current war. We armed them with light weapons and heavy weapons, and taught them how to deploy them in a “symphony” to eventually force the Russians out.

If you want to stop any further eroding of our rights Contact your congress critters today!  BE RESPECTFUL. BE FIRM. Tell him/her/it that you DON’T WANT any more gun control, restrictions on magazines, or closing of any non-existent "gun show loopholes". They’ve already got more than 20,000 gun laws on the books, and it’s obvious that they don’t stop lunatics OR criminals. Let the states provide their own police officers at schools they way that Albuquerque Public Schools has for the past 10 years. No school shootings there!

Remind (clearly and firmly) him/her/it about the 1994 midterm elections when Democrats lost control of both Houses for the first time in 40 years.

Don’t bother discussing the US Constitution—he/she/it has never read it, and doesn’t care. They care only about keeping the $175g’s per year they’re paid for their underworked and overpaid office. Make Contact today--tomorrow may be too late...
