Gun Ban – Gun Confiscation?
Should we resist gun control? Does history repeat itself? Time passes, memory dims and unthinkable horrors,now forgotten or denied, are only read about in old history books. These books and the old remains of the forgotten graves seem to have no impact on today’s world. People simply enjoy the benefits that were long ago paid for with sacrificed blood of our honored, patriotic soldiers, and ignore the over 100 million innocent victims of tyrannical governments and the number one killer in the world .

We now see a generation before us that,increasingly, expects to have everything for nothing, and they want it now. The servants
of Big Government are telling them they deserve it all-right? Engineering a more perfect Orwellian Society, they are willing to
sacrifice a few basic rights in exchange for a false sense of security, without having to pay for it or make any sacrifices
of their own.This is Social Justice and it sells!

Today’s politician must simply tickle the ears of the general public with pretty words, while telling them something is
for their own safety or the common good. Fulfilling their promises does come with a lofty price. The Government cannot give
one anything that it does not first take away from someone else, but it can control your life through excessive laws, regulations, and taxation. Read “The Law” by Bastiat to understand this “legal plunder” more fully.

Progressive politicians are trying hard to convince people to give up their guns in order to stop violence. Almost
as if to say,”Society good, guns bad!” Does anyone really think criminals will give up their guns? Gun laws beget more gun
laws… and when the citizens’ guns are gone and only the government and criminals have guns, what then? We will be at the mercy of the governing regime or criminals of the time, with no means to resist. It will then enact even more laws for “your protection” and the
defenseless people will be forced to obey as the victims of Nazi Germany and others did not so long ago.
Consider these historical facts:
1911 – Turkey established gun control and by 1917, 1.5 million defenseless Armenians were rounded up and exterminated.
1928 – Germany established gun control and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million defenseless Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, mentally
ill and others were rounded up and exterminated.
1929 – USSR established gun control and by 1953, approximately 20 million defenseless dissidents were rounded up and
exterminated.
1935 – China established gun control and from 1948 to 1952, 20 million defenseless political dissidents were rounded up and
exterminated.
1956 – Cambodia established gun control and from 1975 to 1977 one million “educated” defenseless people were rounded up and
exterminated.
1964 – Guatemala established gun control from 1964 to 1981, one hundred thousand defenseless Mayan Indians were rounded up
and exterminated.
1970 – Uganda established gun control and from 1971 to 1979, 300,000 defenseless Christians were rounded up and
exterminated.

Add the defenseless Serbs,the victims of genocide in Barundi, Darfur, and Iraq: it brings the total number of victims who
lost their lives because of gun control to approximately 100 million people in the last century. These are the cold, hard
facts.

Every time gun registration has been enacted “for the safety of citizens,” it has led to gun confiscation.
The next time someone speaks out in favor of gun control, ask them which group of citizens they want to see exterminated.
Our rights will be lost incrementally and the danger of this loss will not be realized until it’s too late as history has
warned! They will be destroyed by individuals who have no appreciation for the value of our God given rights. I wonder
how many of these individuals has ever stood graveside to accept a folded flag gained through the ultimate sacrifice of a
loved one, or placed their own life in harms way to protect their right to protest the 2nd Amendment?

Even President Obama hasn’t spent one day in the armed service of our country. Yet the “Entitlement Generation” saw nothing
wrong with this and now we watched as he was placed in the highest office in the land- twice.
That Office and all our rights were secured with priceless American blood.

Please remember this: “If you tell a lie big enough and repeat it often enough, people will believe it and the myth becomes reality.”~
Joseph Goebels- Chief Media Propagandist for Nazi Germany

Gun control is NOT for the ‘good of the people’; gun control is about one thing and one thing only: government control!

Wake up America!

In Liberty,

Speak now or forever hold your silence…
Remember, liberty is a precious gift from our Creator. For those who fear God, respect Natural Law, and love liberty, there is yet a “promised land.” We may have to do a little searching; we may have to rethink our priorities; we may have to adjust our lifestyles; and yes, we may have to “pledge our lives, fortunes, and sacred honor” in order to obtain it; but our forebears thought it was worth it–and so do I.
