Communism is evil

[jsanders2001]

The MSM, the Left, and Obama’s obsession over controlling people’s access to guns is a mental health issue.

[Lion Den Dan]

What a Communist crock.

Violence of all types is an African American Health Crisis to be more accurate by the numbers.

OPINION: Gun-grabbing nanny-staters are a threat to public health and safety.

(The difference is, my opinion can be backed up with actual facts.)

“A traitor is everyone who does not agree with me.”

The United States Citizens KNOW that they're going to have to fight TYRANTS in their own government.
You can not protect life, without the ability to take life.

While you are WAITING for the police to respond, someone could be losing their life.
All people of a responsible age should be armed.

As EternalVigilance reminded us:

The Second Amendment IS Pro-Life.

"Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these:
First, a right to life;
Secondly, to liberty;
Thirdly, to property;
together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can.
These are evident branches of, rather than deductions from, the duty of self-preservation,
commonly called the first law of nature...
In short, it is the greatest absurdity to suppose it in the power of one, or any number of men, at the entering into society,
to renounce their essential natural rights, or the means of preserving those rights;
when the grand end of civil government, from the very nature of its institution,
is for the support, protection, and defence of those very rights;
the principal of which, as is before observed, are Life, Liberty, and Property.
If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, should in terms renounce or give up any essential natural right,
the eternal law of reason and the grand end of society would absolutely vacate such renunciation.
The right to freedom being the gift of God Almighty,
it is not in the power of man to alienate this gift
and voluntarily become a slave."




-- Samuel Adams, The Rights of the Colonists

Let us NEVER FORGET THAT !

Let's subjugate them to OUR end game, DUST!
"COMPROMISE" is a DIRTY word!
People who study the Bible know that COMPROMISE almost always leads to destruction.


It's time to mock the "Gun Control" Zombies!
"Gun Control" is a firm grip, steady breathing, accurate aim (developed by lots of practice), and a slow trigger pull.


The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
We need to learn from the Swiss and implement their "gun control measures" here in the United States right now, today!
These laws are the ones we should shove into the "2nd Amendment Haters" faces.

" Today, military service for Swiss males is universal. At about age 20, every Swiss male goes through 118 consecutive days of recruit training in the Rekrutenschule. ...

Even before required training begins, young men and women may take optional courses with the Swiss army's M57 assault rifle.
They keep that gun at home for three months and receive six half-day training sessions.

From age 21 to 32, a Swiss man serves as a "frontline" troop in the Auszug, and devotes three weeks a year (in eight of the 12 years) to continued training.
From age 33 to 42, he serves in the Landwehr (like America's National Guard); every few years, he reports for two-week training periods.
Finally, from ages 43, to 50, he serves in the Landsturm; in this period, he only spends 13 days total in "home guard courses."

Over a soldier's career he also spends scattered days on mandatory equipment inspections and required target practice.
Thus, in a 30-year mandatory military career, a Swiss man only spends about one year in direct military service.
Following discharge from the regular army, men serve on reserve status until age 50 (55 for officers).

By the Federal Constitution of 1874, military servicemen are given their first equipment, clothing and arms.
After the first training period, conscripts must keep gun, ammunition and equipment an ihrem Wohnort ("in their homes") until the end of their term of service.

Today, enlisted men are issued M57 AUTOMATIC assault rifles and officers are given pistol.
Each reservist is issued 24 rounds of ammunition in sealed packs for emergency use.
(Contrary to Handgun Control's claim that "all ammunition must be accounted for," the emergency ammunition is the only ammo that requires accounting.)

After discharge from service, the man is given a bolt rifle free from registration or obligation.
Starting in the 1994, the government will GIVE ex-reservists assault rifles. Officers carry pistols rather than rifles and are given their pistols the end of their service.

When the government adopts a new infantry rifle, it sells the old ones to the public.

Reservists are encouraged to buy MILITARY ammunition
(7.5 and 5.6mm-5.56 mm in other countries-for rifles and 9 and 7.65 mm Luger for pistols)
which is sold AT COST by the government, for target practice .
Non-military ammunition for long-gun hunting and .22 Long Rifle (LR) ammo are not subsidized, but are subject to NO sales controls.
Non-military non-hunting ammunition more powerful than .22 LR (such as .38 Spl.) is registered at the time of sale.

Swiss military ammo must be registered IF bought at a private store, BUT NEED NOT BE REGISTERED IF bought at a range.
The nation's 3,000 shooting ranges sell the overwhelming majority of ammunition.
Technically, ammunition bought at the range must be used at the range, but the rule is barely known and almost never obeyed.

The army SELLS a variety of machine guns, submachine guns, anti-tank weapons, anti-aircraft guns, howitzers and cannons.
Purchasers of these weapons require an EASILY OBTAINED cantonal license, and the weapons are registered.
In a nation of six million people, there are at least two million guns, including 600,000 FULLY AUTOMATIC assault rifles, half a million pistols, and numerous machine guns.
Virtually every home has a gun.

Besides SUBSIDIZED military surplus, the Swiss can buy other firearms easily too.
While long guns require NO special purchase procedures, handguns are sold only to those with a Waffenerwerbsschien (purchase certificate) issued by a cantonal authority.
A certificate is issued to every applicant over 18 who is not a criminal or mentally infirm.

There are NO restrictions on the carrying of long guns.
About half the cantons have strict permit procedures for carrying handguns, and the other half have NO rules at all.
There is NO discernible difference in the crime rate between the cantons as a result of the different policies.

Thanks to a lawsuit brought by the Swiss gun lobby, semi-automatic rifles require NO PURCHASE PERMIT and are NOT registered by the government.
Thus, the ONLY long guns registered by the government are FULL AUTOMATICS."

The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
Let's adopt THEIR LAWS !

Remember:

The beauty of the Second Amendment is
that it will not be needed
until they TRY to take it.

As with everything liberal, facts are only useful when the help drive the agenda forward.

Malpractice by physicians, nurses and hospital staff is a health crisis that costs many more deaths than the criminal use of firearms.

Then there is abuse of OTC drugs.

A simple example:

Acetaminophen and the U.S. Acute Liver Failure Study Group: lowering the risks of hepatic failure.

Lee WM1.

Abstract

Acetaminophen overdose is the leading cause for calls to Poison Control Centers (>100,000/year) and accounts for more than 56,000 emergency room visits, 2,600 hospitalizations, and an estimated 458 deaths due to acute liver failure each year. Data from the U.S. Acute Liver Failure Study Group registry of more than 700 patients with acute liver failure across the United States implicates acetaminophen poisoning in nearly 50% of all acute liver failure in this country. Available in many single or combination products, acetaminophen produces more than 1 billion US dollars in annual sales for Tylenol products alone. It is heavily marketed for its safety compared to nonsteroidal analgesics. By enabling self-diagnosis and treatment of minor aches and pains, its benefits are said by the Food and Drug Administration to outweigh its risks. It still must be asked: Is this amount of injury and death really acceptable for an over-the-counter pain reliever?

Bureau of Justice Statistics, "State Court Processing Statistics, 1990-2002
Violent Felons in Large Urban Counties":

* Seventy percent of violent felons had a prior arrest 
record, and 57% had at least one prior arrest for a 
felony. Sixty-seven percent of murderers and 73% of 
those convicted of robbery or assault had an arrest 
record.

* A majority (56%) of violent felons had a prior 
conviction record. Thirty-eight percent had a prior 
felony conviction and 15% had a previous conviction 
for a violent felony. 

...
Race and ethnicity

Forty-one percent of violent felons were black, non-
Hispanic , 30% were Hispanic, and 26% were white, 
non-Hispanic. Blacks (46%) comprised a higher 
percentage of murderers than Hispanics (27%) or 
whites (23%).

"Stop and frisk" conducted on members of high-risk groups would be much more effective in lowering gun homicide rates.

Just bend over and take it, eh, Doc?

[The_Reader_David]

Everyone who talks or writes about the morally specious category “gun violence” should be reminded in some sharp way that those who are murdered with clubs or knives are just as dead as those who are gunned down, their friends and relatives just as bereaved, and the soul of the murderer just as stained. Perhaps IS beheading videos might be put to some good use in this regard. (I am absolutely certain that the relatives of the 21 Coptic New Martys of Libya take solace only from the fact that their sons and brothers dies as marytrs for Christ, and none from the fact that they were not “victims of gun violence”.)

The only comparable country to the United States — multi-ethnic with a long uncontrollable border — the Russian Federation has a murder rate about 8 times that of the U.S. with a firearms ownership rate about 10% of that in the U.S. This fact demonstrates the vacuity of “gun violence” as a category both in moral and policy considerations and makes the notion of “controlling gun violence” uninteresting both morally and as a matter of public health.

[IronJack]

Here we go again ... About every five years or so, the "Docs" weigh in on gun control and attempt to turn it into a public health "crisis." We're all supposed to genuflect at the gravity of their pronouncements -- they're DOCTORS after all! -- and hand over yet another liberty for the sake of the common good.

Bull splatter! Stick to medicine, Doc, and leave public policy to The People.
