‘Shame On Us’ If We’ve Forgotten Newtown

If I were to take a guess, I would say he is pandering to the Liberal/Progressive groupings in this country. I would also surmise that he, Barack Hussein Obama, does not identify nor have concern for people such as though who live in Chicago as many think that eh does. Afterall, he us a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, has very little in common with those who live in "inner-cities" and has his acculturation among the elitist of the Liberal/Progressive establishment of the United States and Europe, which is why it is shameful that he has so much support from the segment of the population that he has. I guess being blissfully ignorant or blind, deaf and dumb is more comforting than being a wide-awake person.

 

I'll sum it up this way; There are still a few votes up for grabs in the white community....

 

As usual, people ignore the facts and choose to live in fantasy and stereotypes concerning people with whom they have differences with. The majority of Second Amendment advocates, such as myself, view the Second Amendment in the following light, it is an extension of the natural right of self defense as well as one of the benchmarks of being free. If a person has no limits on their personal protection, this a a clear sign of a free society. Once rules and limits begin to appear on the basic right of self protection than the society is on a road to the loss of even more and greater freedoms. Freedoms are not singular nor isolated, in most cases, one freedom begets another and is supported by the same. Once that chain or cycle is broken, than freedom is bound to be dismantled as a whole. At least, this is my thought on the matter.

Political pandering at its worst and best.

 

Translation: damn it, the emotional hysteria has worn off, and people are thinking rationally again.

 

I have noticed this about the argument against protecting our children with armed guards. The some equate a gun with evil and think that having a gun around their children will somehow be a bad influence, yet the same people have no problem with armed guards protecting their money. So is money more important than their own children?

 

AlphaOmega,
Your post touches exactly the sentiments of most people who have experienced criminals, who are nothing more than societal predators and bandy about as though there is nothing wrong with their sociopathic behaviors and view of society.
As a Muslim, it is against my traditional standards to own any type of firearm but I do see the need for them within a society that does not place enough emphasis on upright behavior and as has been established, controlled by people with an ideology of coddling those who are asocial and antisocial in their behavior(s).
With that stated, trust me, if the need even arose for me to need a firearm for the protection of myself, my family and others, I will obtain one.

 

The same argument can be applied to egotistical, self important progressive elites in government.
THEIR'S and THEIR family's lives and safety are FAR more important than your's and your family's lives and safety...

Hupp's quote in my sig sums it up pretty well.

In their eyes, "The People" are just untrustworthy, dirty masses of humanity who require their rare wisdom and benevolence to get through the day, thusly, they feel entitled to firearm ownership, CCP's, and armed security details (among other things)

"God Complex"
