Too much misinformation

There is so much BS out there this morning about gun control. Here are some random thoughts on things I’ve heard in the last 24 hours.


Here is the basic information. 27 plainly written words that people sworn to support and defend the constitution are bound by:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Now idiots will argue that the “militia” refers to the modern day army. It does not. A militia to this day refers to an army of ordinary citizens.  Even if you cede the point on the meaning of militia to the idiots, there are still those 5 pesky words, “the right of the people.” That can ONLY mean every citizen of the several states.

Keep this in mind. How is a militia “well regulated?” Certainly it needs to be well led and well trained. But the founders also knew that a well armed citizenry would themselves “regulate” any militia that was not. Just knowing that the citizenry is well armed has the affect of “regulating” the militia and nearly everything else.

“Common sense gun control” is a time tested phrase used by people who think it’s only common sense to outlaw all guns. The word “control” is100% at odds with the words “shall not be infringed.” Any control is by design an infringement.

The term “assault rifle” is being thrown around in nearly every conversation about guns. When I got shot in the ass with a BB gun down at the creek as a youngster, I would have classified that BB gun as an assault weapon. If you used 10,000 words you could not accurately describe, classify, and differentiate weapons by function, operation and purpose of use. The term assault rifle is used by people who don’t know much to classify a rifle that has a military appearance to it without any regard as to how the weapon operates.

In their last attempt to limit “assault rifles,” the geniuses in congress classified any gun with a bayonet lug as an assault rifle. Manufactures removed the bayonet lugs and re-named the rifles so as not to be on the list of “banned weapons” and sold as many as would have been sold prior to the “ban.” This is another case of idiots trying to control truly smart people. The idiots always lose.

And here’s a secret that ought to stay a secret. We should thank God that these mass murders are in love with military looking rifles. If they ever wise up and start wading into crowds with a shotgun, we’ll see real carnage. Think about it. A weapon that doesn’t need to be aimed at close range and cuts a wide and indiscriminate path is ideal for these psychopaths whose only mission is to create mayhem and chaos.

“Give me one good reason anyone should have an assault rifle.” This came from a congressman sworn to uphold the Constitution. That’s what we’re up against. I’ll give you one congressman. The Constitution allows it.

“Nobody hunts with an AR-15.” The second Amendment says not one word about hunting. The right to keep and bear arms as addressed in the 2nd Amendment has not one thing to do with hunting. Gun grabbers use hunting as a red herring to distract from the words of the 2nd Amendment. The argument then becomes, what kind of arms are “reasonable” for hunting? People who use this argument are more dangerous than the guy who just comes out and says, “Ban all guns.” At least the guy in the second case is being honest.

Last and this is really important. The constitution is being shredded bit by bit before our eyes by the very people sworn to support and defend it. If the 2nd Amendment no longer applies to a 21st century America, the founders left a way to amend it. All it takes is 66 senators and 38 states and the idiots in congress can do whatever they want. The dip $h!t Boehner and Reids of the world know that bar is way too high. So they look to chip away at it bit by bit, almost unnoticeably. They have a complicit bunch in the Supreme Court who are now happy to re-write laws so that they pass muster rather than sending them back stamped in large red letters, “FAILED. DOES NOT MEET CONSTITUTIONAL MUSTER. HAVE YOU EVER EVEN LOOKED AT THE CONSTITUTION?  DO IT OVER - IDIOTS.”
