5 Questions Women Should Ask Before They Get A Gun

5 Questions Women Should Ask Before They Get A Gun - pjmedia.com

Excerpt from this article:

"It seems that after almost every article I write on self defense for women, people write, 'Get a gun! Get a gun!' Yes, I agree, a gun is an excellent tool to deter crime and to prevail in a violent encounter. I teach gun safety and the Conceal and Carry class in my state and well over half my students are women.  Here are five questions I go through with them to help determine whether they are ready to purchase their firearm."

Can We All Agree that Cops Shouldn't Shoot 12-Year-Olds?

Can We All Agree that Cops Shouldn't Shoot 12-Year-Olds? - pjmedia.com

Excerpt from this article:

"Rice was playing with a toy gun near a recreational center in 2014 when someone spotted him and called the cops. The caller told the dispatcher that the subject might be a child with a toy gun. But that information was not passed along to the responding officers. The subsequent encounter was over in seconds, and young Rice was shot dead....The fact as of this moment is that an innocent 12-year-old boy was killed, and no one has been held accountable. That's not acceptable."
-----------------------------------------------

Maybe it's time to outlaw toy guns. I can think of several good reasons for an adult to own a gun (self protection, hunting animals you intend to eat, etc.). But guns don't make good toys anymore. A law enforcement officer shouldn't have to wait until they get shot 3 times before they figure out whether the gun is real or not!


Here are a couple of short quotes from two people on both sides of the gun control issue:

"One man with a gun can control 100 without one." - Vladimir Lenin

"Those who beat their swords into plowshares usually wind up working for those who didn't!" - Benjamin Franklin

7 Reasons You Should Buy a Gun After San Bernardino

7 Reasons You Should Buy a Gun After San Bernardino - breitbart.com

Excerpt from this article:

"You should buy a gun. You should learn how to use it. You should buy sufficient ammunition. You should get a license to carry, if you can.You should do all of that now."

--------------------------------------

Gun control is not about keeping guns out of the hands of dangerous psychopaths (as opposed to non-dangerous psychopaths?). No, that's not it at all.  The gun control controversy revolves around a simple question: Does history repeat itself?

If you say it does, then you likely would be alarmed at the following article:

Kudos to Toys R Us, Michael Moore

Toys R Us Removing Toy Guns From Stores in France Following Paris Attacks - breitbart.com

Michael Moore Offers His Michigan Home to Syrian Refugees - breitbart.com

----------------------------------------------

One of the main purposes of this blog is to spread the Gospel of my Lord Jesus Christ - and I do this in part by posting links to various gospel sermons (see here and here and here and here, and here)

But another purpose is just to share my take on social issues like gun control  and immigration (see here, and here, and here, and here).

Michael Moore and I are probably as far apart as Bernie Sanders and Rush Limbaugh (I'm a little bit to the right of Rush!).

But I'm not opposed to giving kudos where kudos are due. And the above 2 news stories highlight 2 things that deserve kudos:
1. Toys R Us for removing toy guns from their store. I am a fierce defender of our second amendment right to bear arms (not to be confused with arming bears, which I don't recommend!). But guns are not toys and all stores (as well as second hand stores, garage sales, Craigslist, etc.) should follow Toys R Us' lead and refuse to sell these guns ... to anyone.
2. Michael Moore deserves our kudos for offering to let Syrian refugees to live in his house. Hopefully this is not just a publicity act. But I think Christians would do well to follow his lead here - especially for refugees that name the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says:

"But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?" - 1 John 3:17

Obama Exploits Anti-Christian Terrorism to Push Gun Control

Obama Exploits Anti-Christian Terrorism to Push Gun Control - thenewamerican.com

Excerpt from this article:

Using deeply misleading rhetoric, Obama wasted no time in exploiting the tragic Oregon terrorist attack on Christian students, disarmed in yet another infamous “gun-free zone,” to push for even more unconstitutional restrictions on the rights of Americans to keep and bear arms. In a speech that was regurgitated by establishment media outlets across America, Obama claimed that the United States was “the only advanced country on Earth that sees these kinds of mass shootings every few months.”

Raising Up Complint Children in the American Police State

Raising Up Complint Children in the American Police State - canadafreepress.com

Excerpt from this article:

“[The aim of public education is not] to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence. . . . Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim . . . is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States…”—Henry Mencken, American Journalist (April 1924)

"This week marks the 75th anniversary of Kristallnacht, or the Night of the Broken Glass, the Nazi pogrom against Germany’s Jews on Nov. 9-10, 1938. Historians have documented most everything about it except what made it so easy to attack the defenseless Jews without fear of resistance. Their guns were registered and thus easily confiscated."

7 in 10 Americans Think Government Is For The Banks And Big Corps (Not The People)

7 in 10 Americans Think Government Is For The Banks And Big Corps (Not The People) | Zero Hedge:

"72% of the poor and 71% of the middle-class believe government policies (fiscal and monetary) have done little or nothing to help them. Of course, this will be eschewed by the academics (as Santelli recently exclaimed regarding the arrogance of the intellectuals) because 'the people' just don't get it. But when 69% of all Americans, according a new Pew study, say large banks and financial institutions have benefited the most from post-recession government policies; communications policies are going badly awry. Despite a surging stock market, exploding home prices, and low rates spurring all kinds of subprime auto loan exuberance, there has been little change in these perceptions since July 2010."

If "72% of the poor and 71% of the middle-class" had read Gary Allen's 1971 book, None Dare Call it Conspiracy, they would KNOW why the government is for the big banks and not for them! (These people should also read: "What Happens When Governments Tries to Disarm its Citizens?").

Obama Calls Republicans "Deadbeats" for Opposing Increase in Debt Limit*

President Obama: Republicans Opposing Debt Limit Increase Are ‘Deadbeat’ - ABC News:

"Setting the stage for the looming debt debate, President Obama today accused his Republican opponents of being “deadbeat” for refusing to raise the nation’s debt limit this fall without cuts in spending. 'Threatening that you won’t pay the bills in this country when we’ve already racked up those bills, that’s not an economic plan,' the president said. 'That’s just being a deadbeat.'"

This is a straw man argument. Of course America should pay its bills. The "Deadbeats" are not those Republicans who oppose increasing the debt limit, they are those good-for-nothing politicians - in both parties - that made it necessary to raise the debt limit in the first place! Eventually America will run out of credit - and will have no choice but to default.

The Psychotic Militarization of Law Enforcement

The Psychotic Militarization of Law Enforcement:

"How did it ever come down to abandoning peace keeping and accepting law enforcement by any means? Even the New York Times expresses alarm in, When the Police Go Military. 'The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 generally bars the military from law enforcement activities within the United States. But today, some local and city police forces have rendered the law rather moot. They have tanks - yes, tanks, often from military surplus, for use in hostage situations or drug raids - not to mention the sort of equipment and training one would need to deter a Mumbai-style guerrilla assault.'"

Revisited: The Night Chicago Died!

Lawmaker demands the National Guard patrol the streets of Chicago to stop gun violence — RT USA:

 "The military could soon be patrolling the streets of Chicago, Illinois if a local lawmaker has her way. State Rep. Monique Davis has asked the governor to deploy the National Guard among an epidemic of violent crime. Davis, a 76-year-old Democrat who represents Chicago in the Illinois House of Representatives, said Tuesday that Gov. Pat Quinn should order both the Illinois State Police and the Illinois National Guard to assist with law enforcement efforts in her city aimed at curbing crime. More than 100 people have been shot in only the first 10 days of July."

Chicago has a history of violence. I think someone did a song about that once!
