“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.” Everyone may not always believe in this or
that conspiracy but we all believe in something mysterious about the
government, that the way we are going we will be doomed.
It’s the government, when is the
last time you trusted a stranger to help you, that didn’t benefit themselves…..The
constitution in my eyes is the “citizen bible,” tells the government and its constituents
what we can and can’t do.
Our founding fathers were people
with greater visions for our country then the people surrounding them at that
time, is it crazy to think by writing such a powerful document that their
wouldn’t be any type of consequences. It’s only natural by giving someone
restrictions people will push to the edge of that “line.”
The II Amendment can’t be blamed
for the deaths of people, which are like accusing who ever created McDonald’s,
should be tried for the causes and deaths of obesity. Guns aren’t the reason,
it’s the people. According to infowars.com, Doctors kills 2,450% more Americans
then all gun related deaths combined. It’s true: You are 64 times more likely
to be killed by your doctor than by someone else wielding a gun. That’s because
19,766 of the total 31,940 gun deaths in the USA (in the year 2011) were
suicides. So the actual number of deaths from other people shooting you is only
12,174.
According to the FBI annual crime
statistics, the number of murders committed annually with hammers and clubs far
outnumbers the number of murders committed with a rifle. Guns don’t kill
people, people kill people. The media is another guilty culprit, the media
harps so much attention on the “bad wolf,” in this country. The media illustrates
how much fame and money can be granted when committing a horrific crime.
This is a pretty amazing story. An
armed private citizen assisted a police officer who was pinned down by the
gunfire of a madman who had just killed 3 people and could have killed many
more. Amazingly the concerned citizen, Vic Stacy, did so by taking a shot of
50+ yards using only a pistol. The caliber hand gun is unknown, but Stacy
mentions a “magnum bullet” which could mean a .357 or .44. Stacy landed
multiple shots on the shooter and this allowed the police officer to also land
shots with his AR-15 while the suspect was distracted.
When you’re given something like a
handgun in Switzerland, or the legal age to drink in Germany is 18, you don’t
care for it as much, it’s not as cool as you thought it was. The government
refuses to have a tighter control on weapons, instead I think they want to take
them away and sell them to the criminals, so people keep their jobs.
It is quite sad that public schools
have added a “handgun drill,” I don’t have children but this already terrifies
me, but I believe there are other way to keep our children and the people safe.
We should be focusing on funding more for mental health research, more security
at schools actually supervising the school, and educating on warning signs for
the people who might act with a handgun. The government and the media should
stand back and reconsider their actions and take care of us because they want
to aid the American people, not because it their means of income.
