The Anti-gunners, The Connecticut Shooting, And Gun Control Legislation

I’ve found that there tend to be two large groups who continue the push for the limiting, if not outright banning, guns from American society—those who are already protected by armed bodyguards, and those who are uninformed or misinformed about anything to do with firearms—usually by the first group of individuals.

The first group includes those who hold the largest amount of power in our country—the ones who make the laws. The second group has only learned what they “know” by what the first group is telling them. Most of those in the first group also fit nicely into this second category, combining the two to make a scary combination of both being uninformed and making the laws.

Together, these two groups make up a contingent that seems to think they are capable of making laws about an item they know nothing about. This mentality is like allowing PETA, or vegetarians, make the laws regulating the beef and poultry industries.

My perception was further confirmed to be correct when I heard Senator Diane Feinstein talk about her legislative proposals for gun control. It wasn’t so much about what she inserted into the legislation as much as it was her absolutely ignorant statements about guns that showed she is an absolute idiot about guns. Here's part of what she said:

She mentioned that AR-style weapons are used by holding them at the hip, and spraying bullets at people. She mentioned that 5 rounds of ammunition is enough for self defense. She is also proposing legislation that could ban items such as competition trigger parts (while out the other side of her mouth she's saying is protecting sport shooting). She doesn't want the ranchers in the Southern states bordering Mexico to have guns with enough ammunition be able to defend themselves and their loved ones from the drug cartels coming across the border with fully automatic weapons. And, she want's to outlaw .22 caliber rifles and any other rifle with a folding front site.

Perhaps she wouldn't mind having her own bodyguards with only five bullets available to protect her if she’s ever attacked. Or perhaps she’s listening to her other ignorant colleagues about how to hold and shoot a sporting rifle. In any case, my first couple paragraphs have been substantiated by her own comments.

As for the largely uninformed general public, the effect of the anti-gun marketing campaigns is all too obvious. The truth about guns is rarely heard in the hands of the largely anti-gun media. With the financial backing of anti-gun billionaires the media is supremely biased toward the anti-gun lobby in their reports.

Because of the current situation, it’s now more important than ever for people to seek out the truth about guns and the recent school shootings instead of simply eating what you are being fed.

In the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, those with the anti-gun agendas have now gotten what they have been hoping for—a public tragedy they can parlay into their true anti-gun agenda. They can now focus on the guns used in the shooting as a way to gain a foothold on the mountain they’ve been waiting for years to climb.

Next time we’ll take a close look at what’s being said by the anti-gun lobby, what they aren’t telling you, and why they hope you never find out.
