Deleted Facebook Post

I posted a little rant the other day on Facebook that was deleted for no apparent reason so I'm going to post it here. If they are afraid of it, then it must be good.

Food for thought: Did you know that the NRA has 4.2 million members? That's 1.2 million more than the armed forces, and many soldiers are also NRA members. The GOA, Gun Owners of America has 300,000 members, of which I am one. Many of these cross over to the other groups as well. I am not an NRA member because I feel they are willing to compromise with our elected officials to violate my civil rights. (The NRA has written many of the gun control measures we see on the books today.) The GOA was instrumental in killing any 2013 legislation that would limit my natural rights that are protected by the constitution of these United States.

There are calls for the disarmament of these political activist groups, but who's going to do it? Both groups have become very vocal about their stance on illegal legislation, with the NRA voicing it's "Stand Your Ground" message to the membership. The GOA's "No Compromise" stance since the inception of the group has garnered many fans in the firearms community. There's really no hope for compromise on the issue.

In Connecticut they passed a bill to register certain firearms and any magazine over 10 rounds. They estimate 370,000 of those firearms are in the state. Only 50,000 people chose registered their firearms, and even less registered standard capacity magazines of which they have no estimates on their numbers. There are approximately 7,000 police officers in Connecticut, of which I'm sure many disagree with the law. Are you beginning to see the futility of these actions? Lets say that of those 320,000 unregistered guns, many people own 3 or 4 of those weapons a piece. That means that 7,000 armed people have the duty to arrest and prosecute 100,000 or so armed people who refuse to comply. Maybe the 230,000 strong DHS will do it! No, only between half and a quarter of them are agents, the rest are support and operations people.

So the real question is, which of you anti-gun freedom haters is willing to come to each of our houses and take our guns away? What will you do if I say no? Will you use your hired guns to kill me? If that's what you're all about, you're not really anti-gun, you're anti freedom. Using the guns you supposedly oppose to proliferate your hatred of an inanimate object that is incapable of evil!

So who's really the gun nut? The guy that has a few guns that have never and will never be used in a crime, or the supposed anti-gun advocacy that wishes to use guns to force people to adopt their agenda?

Guns are a fact of life in America, you can choose to accept it and go on, or you can waste time, resources and money on a losing battle. Pass your illegal laws if you so choose, when you turn good citizens, vets and longtime outdoors men and women into criminals overnight with your laws, be ready for them to start acting like criminals.

Better yet, Repeal the 2nd Amendment. At that point I will have no excuse for not acting.

  1. The elites are slowly mainstreaming the net through FB, google and other venues. It's a matter of time till those who oppose the evil ones won't even be able to have a blog or website.

    Millions will dig the ditch they are told to dig then wet their pants when the machine gun bolts slam home and die stupidly wondering “How did this happen to me?” The tiny minority will have to do what will be required.
    It’s time to stop arguing over the culture war. It’s time to stop hunkering down for the apocalypse. It’s time to stop waiting to get beamed up. It’s time to start thinking Normandy.
    If you sit home waiting your turn you deserve to have your gun taken from your cold dead hands.
    The Founders didn’t wait for the Brits to knock down their doors. They gathered at the green and stood up like men and they killed government employees all the way back to Boston.
    What will you do when it’s time to hunt NWO hacks, republicrats and commies(“Liberals” and ‘progressives’)?

  2. Yes, it's that good old testicular fortitude that's missing from the equation. Most of the populace would lay down and die if you took away their Iphone!

Let's keep it clean and legal, as if you were sitting in my living room enjoying a nice glass of iced tea. Profanity or explicit posts will not be tolerated. Enjoy!
