| Experience has proven: When guns are outlawed, more cops are corrupted, becoming covert gun dealers to criminals (just as in the "drug war"). But the worst, most dramatic result is the explosion in armed robberies, including home invasions and carjackings, as criminals keep using guns, become emboldened, become more murderous ... and proliferate wildly. Is this what you want? |

| FIRST, please bear in mind most cops are decent, freedom-loving human beings. Many will even risk their jobs by disobeying (or, at least, pretending to obdy) any orders which violate citizens' rights. One who dashed off an email to radio talk show host Neal Boortz had this to say: "Neil you are the greatest. You tell it like it is. I am a police officer in central Florida and listen to you every day while on patrol. I really like it when you reinforce the 2nd amendment. As police officers we can not be every where and armed citizen has held many a criminal at bay for me in the past. Charles _______ Thanks." |

Even More Sociopaths to whom the Short-Sighted Would Give a Monopoly on Guns "After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn't do it. I sure as hell wouldn't want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military." -- William Burroughs (b. 1914), author, "The War Universe." ...

 See:
"A woman with a firearm...can credibly threaten and deter an attacker of
any size, shape, or strength" HERE.
When
women are disarmed, a rapist could be confident he would never hear: "Stop
or I'll shoot!"
Gun Control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound. Be intensely alert to the news media's constant drumbeat of anti-gun bias. |

| A government which confiscates guns or any other rights from its honest citizens canNOT be said to derive any just powers from, or even exist by, the consent of the people. Therefore it must be considered an outlaw government. After all, "An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject." Even if a dictator is not available to rise to power immediately after all guns are confiscated, how long do you think it would be before one is? Study your history now. Hint: your children may or may not be enslaved in their lifetimes, but the likelihood that your grandchildren WILL be is about 99%. Is THIS what you want ??? After all, "Give a good man great powers and crooks grab his job." |
