'Gun Use By Citizens Infographic'

From The republican Mother:

Mitt Romney Serves Up The Kool-Aid To The NRA

Mitt Romney:

Referring specifically to the right to bear arms, Romney said: "If we are going to safeguard our Second Amendment, it is time to elect a president who will defend the rights President Obama ignores or minimizes. I will."

Mittens hasn,t always supported the 2nd Amendment:

Mitt Romney is the Republican party's version Bill Clinton,with the exception of being a whore monger.Willard will say and do anything to be elected POTUS.

Here We Go,'Bill Cosby Blames,"The Gun'

Bill Cosby:

“We’ve got to get the gun out of the hands of people who are supposed to be on neighborhood watch,” said Mr. Cosby, whose remarks were the first he has made publicly about the case.
“Without a gun, I don’t see Mr. Zimmerman approaching Trayvon by himself,” Mr. Cosby explained. “The power-of-the-gun mentality had him unafraid to confront someone. Even police call for backup in similar situations.
“When you carry a gun, you mean to harm somebody, kill somebody,” he said.

I was waiting on someone to blame the gun and Bill Cosby didn't let me down.For the left it is always the guns fault.Never mind the fact that the evidence points to Trayvon Martin assaulting George Zimmerman,it was the guns fault.If George Zimmerman hadn't had a gun he wouldn't have been where he shouldn't.

Maybe if George Zimmerman hadn't had a gun,it would be him instead of Trayvon Martin that was dead.Maybe the gun saved George Zimmerman's life that night.Maybe if Trayvon Martin had not assaulted George Zimmerman,he would be alive today.Maybe in the end it was personal responsibility that was the deciding factor,not the gun.

'Trayvon Martin Carnival'

From The Other McCain:

Am I the only one who sees the Trayvon Martin carnival in this context? Liberals have turned the case into a sort of public festival, a self-congratulatory celebration of their own moral superiority. And they have arranged the symbolic elements of the narrative so that to criticize them — the shameless media moralizers — is to become implicated in George Zimmerman’s presumed guilt.
They are using the corpse of Trayvon Martin as a human shield to conceal their ideological agenda and protect themselves against criticism.

They are 3 reasons,as I can see,that the left is hyping this shooting.

1.) Race is big business on the left.The likes of Jesse Jackson,Al Sharpton,and others have enriched themselves on racism.By using racial discord,they have shaken down businesses,organizations,individuals,and governments,from which they have accrued a fortune.They sense a jackpot here.

2.) They are strengthening their hand for November.One of the last weapons Obama has left in his arsenal is the race card.Obama is going to try to paint whoever his opponent is in November as a bigot.This will not only help drive a large black turnout,but play on white guilt as well,helping to sway the independents his way -because nobody wants to be called a racist.

3.) This is part of the lefts on going assault on the 2nd amendment.They are trying to use this and any other shooting they can manipulate to further restrict your right to keep and bear arms -in this case they are targeting the so called 'stand your grounds' laws.

Also,we shouldn't fall into the trap of defending George Zimmermann's innocence,analyzing video looking for cuts and bruises.He may very well be innocent but their is still a lot we do not know about this case.

What we need to focus our attention upon is to not let the left manipulate this whole situation and force more gun control legislation down our throats.That is the real threat here.

The Myth Of Gun Control

Gun free zones are unsafe zones,period.Only law abiding citizens obey the law.The criminal element in society by their very nature do not obey the law.Gun control laws only infringe on your right to protect yourself and fail miserably to stop crime.

Sheriff Time For Citizens To Arm Themselves

Amen,Amen,and Amen!!!

I have said it before and I will say it again,the only people that gun control laws restrict is law abiding citizens.The criminal element in our communities are by their very nature unaffected by any law,much less a law banning them from owning a firearm.

Herman Cain Is Pro-Choice/Pro-Life Or Something Like That

Herman Cain tells Piers Morgan that he is Pro-life/Pro-Choice or something like that:

And yet, interestingly, here’s what Cain said to Morgan concerning abortion for people who are not his family members:

No, it comes down to is, it’s not the government’s role — or anybody else’s role — to make that decision. Secondly, if you look at the statistical incidents, you’re not talking about that big a number. So what I’m saying is, it ultimately gets down to a choice that that family or that mother has to make. Not me as president. Not some politician. Not a bureaucrat. It gets down to that family. And whatever they decide, they decide. I shouldn’t try to tell them what decision to make for such a sensitive decision.

Morgan then said that Cain cannot hide behind the “mask of the pizza guy,” and that, as a person who may potentially become president, his views on issues like abortion become “a directive to the nation.” Cain’s response?

No, they don’t. I can have an opinion on an issue without it being a directive on the nation. The government shouldn’t be trying to tell people everything to do, especially when it comes to a social decision that they need to make.

So, there you have it: Herman Cain is against abortion, personally, but is firmly pro-choice, as he believes the government should not intervene in social decisions. And that extends to same-sex marriage, by the way. As you may recall, Cain said recently, during an appearance on Meet The Press, that “I wouldn’t seek a constitutional ban for same-sex marriage, but I am pro-traditional marriage.”

Herman Cain is very wishy-washy when it comes to matters involving the Constitution.He is Pro-Life but doesn't want government to protect unborn innocent life.He is pro traditional marriage,but doesn't want a Constitutional amendment to protect it from the left,who want to destroy the traditional family.Let us not forget this,Herman Cain said,he believed in 2nd Amendment rights,but then said,the states had a right to restrict those same rights.

Being wish-washy makes Herman Cain a good T.V. personality,but it makes him unfit to be POTUS.

Steyn Putting It All In Perspective

Mark Steyn,puts in proper perspective,the News of the World hacking story,the Atlanta schools cheating scandal,and project Gunrunner;

We’re not talking about hacking a schoolgirl’s cellphone here. Real people are dead. Yet nobody’s going to close down any wing of the vast spendaholic DEATFBI hydra-headed security-state turf-war. And while Eric Holder, the buccaneering attorney general at the center of this wilderness of mirrors, doesn’t yet have as many Distinguished Public Servant of the Year awards as Beverly Hall, judging from his cheerfully upfront obstruction of the congressional investigation, he’s not planning on going anywhere soon.
So, at the News of the World, every single employee is clearing out his desk. But, at the Atlantic Public Schools, at the DEATFBI, life goes on. A curious contrast. The striking feature of Big Government, from Athens to Sacramento, is its imperviousness to any kind of accountability — legal, fiscal, electoral, popular. A media mogul, a bank chairman, an oil executive, a corporate-jet depreciation-claimant are easily demonizable: As President Obama cautioned CEOs a couple of years back, “My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.”

Herman Cain Gots Some Explaining To Do

I was very disappointed when I heard Herman Cain say this;

The 2nd amendment,to put it plain and simple,is non-negotiable!We have a God given right to protect ourselves,persons who are in our care,and our property,from anyone wishing to do them harm,with whatever force maybe necessary,period.We have a Constitutional right to arm ourselves with any weapon that may aid us in the defence of our lives,our families,and homes,without any interference from the Federal or state governments.

Here are 10 questions,via Free North Carolina,that Herman Cain needs to answer to clarify his position on the 2nd amendment;

1. Do you believe that the Constitution is the "supreme law of the land" and that the Bill of Rights acknowledges our birthrights? 2. If so, should these rights be proactively protected from infringement by all levels of government, including city, county and state?
3. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider constitutional.
4. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider unconstitutional.
5. Does the right to bear arms include the right for any peaceable citizen to carry them concealed without a permit, as in Vermont?
6. Do you believe that Americans have a right to own, use and carry weapons of military pattern, and will you use the prestige of elected office to publicly promote that right?
7. Do you support or oppose registration of weapons? Why?
8. Do you support or oppose licensing requirements to own or carry firearms? Why?
9. What specific gun laws will you work to get repealed?
10. If elected, will you back your words of support for firearms rights up with consistent actions? How?

Obama's Covert War On The 2nd Amendment

Via Moonbattery;

The statist agenda has never been achieved until the public has been disarmed, because in the end, anyone worthy of being called human will rebel against socialism. Like other aspects of Obamunism so radical as to provoke open revolt, the campaign to repeal the crucial Second Amendment is going "under the radar" — to quote the Manchurian Moonbat himself:

On March 30, the 30th anniversary of the assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan, Jim Brady, who sustained a debilitating head wound in the attack, and his wife, Sarah, came to Capitol Hill to push for a ban on the controversial "large magazines." Brady, for whom the law requiring background checks on handgun purchasers is named, then met with White House press secretary Jay Carney. During the meeting, President Obama dropped in and, according to Sarah Brady, brought up the issue of gun control, "to fill us in that it was very much on his agenda," she said.

"I just want you to know that we are working on it," Brady recalled the president telling them. "We have to go through a few processes, but under the radar."

These "processes" will be regulatory, imposed by faceless, unelected apparatchiks and ignored by the complicit media. That's how freedom is killed: quietly, gradually, furtively.
