In case you missed Rush today, he cited some stats that will become even MORE important as the left & Democrats (but I repeat myself!) callously EXPLOIT the Las Vegas tragedy to advance one of their top two agenda items: TO DISARM DECENT, LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS!

The anti-gun measures now on the books in liberal controlled cities like Chicago, New York, LA, etc. have done NOTHING to keep criminals from getting all the firearms THEY want and they have the homicide rates to prove it.

The charts at the link below are per Pew Research for the period between 1993 to 2014. (I tried to find more recent data but could not. If YOU find it, please respond with the URL.) http://tinyurl.com/j572zsu

What you need to know is that during those years, PRIVATE GUN OWNERSHIP HAS MARKEDLY INCREASED. The number USED to be around 270 million private firearms. Gun sales have surged since until now, mid-2017, we own an estimated 400 MILLION guns.

Those statistics prove the case Professor John Lott made years ago in his study and book “More Guns, Less Crime.”

If you are still unclear as to WHY the Democrats MUST disarm those of us who do not share their vision of their cockamamie Utopian centrally controlled society in which all will be “equal” (but some — THEY — will be more equal than us ignorant “proles”), the videos and the comments below may help.

The Utopian socialist libs are NOT GOING TO QUIT. NEITHER CAN WE!
*****************************
Back in the early 80s, I attended a speech by the late Arkady Shevchenko, then the highest-ranking Soviet official to defect to the West. He had been their top guy at the UN.

He spoke, interestingly, at KENNESAW COLLEGE — and we all know what Kennesaw is famous for! I’m proud to have played a small role in helping Mayor Darvin Purdy get that legislation through the Kennesaw City Council.

Shevchenko’s talk dealt with the clear intent of the leadership of the old Soviet Union (12/5/2015 UPDATE: ADD THE CURRENT LEFTIST CONTROLLED FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO THAT LIST!) to somehow take America. He mentioned their ICBMs and the nuclear blackmail threat they posed. (12/5/2015 UPDATE: MAKE THAT THE MUSLIMS!)

Then he broke from his prepared remarks and offered the audience this wisdom:

“The leaders of my country are as AFRAID OF YOUR 200 MILLION (12/5/2015 UPDATE: MAKE THAT 380 MILLION AND COUNTING!) PRIVATE FIREARMS as they are of your ICBMs. NEVER GIVE UP YOUR GUNS.”

Frankly — and, while he had to be careful as he was under FBI protection at the time, Shevchenko alluded to this in his remarks — I’m as concerned about some domestic tyrant (say, a Hillary, Nancy Pelosi, Barack HUSSEIN Obama or Chuck Schumer) as I am about some foreign enemy.

And it is THAT threat about which the Founding Fathers were concerned that prompted them to leave us the Second Amendment.

The BIG question is: WILL WE KEEP IT?
