Duck Season.Wabbit Season.Treason Season.

I have to start start out with a disclaimer:I am pro~gun.I don't care if you own just a shotgun.A handgun.I don't care if you own a cache of automatic weapons.I don't care if you are into missile launchers.Hell....if you got some nuclear weapons...just how does that affect me?

We are all responsible adults,here.

But people,the rhetoric that we have a Constitutional right to bare arms only holds up if we are consistent in our love for America,it's whole Constitution and the love of the freedoms that go along with it.The laws were made for Americans,not Americans for the laws.

For instance,in the wake of untethered gun violence-as free peoples-to say that any discussion on how to stop such future attacks should not include curtailing our gun rights is a popular argument.'Guns don't kill people;people kill people', is a somewhat valid point.

But,then,by making the discussion about how to stop these bloody massacres all about not taking away our guns is not a very valid point at all.Is it?

This-by our own admission-is not about the weapons.It's about stopping this violence.

How do we stop loose cannons with itchy trigger fingers from gunning down Americans?

Sadly,the discussion hasn't gotten to this point just yet.

Certain factions are making sure that we are still on the NRA talking point that owning guns is a Second Amendment guarantee.

Come on people,think this through.

First off,Tea Partiers are big on saying our government guarantees that if we are unhappy with the way Washington is run that we have the right to tear it down and start all over again.The Tea party practically runs all of it's campaigns on this idea.

Second,what is it about the word 'amendment' you don't understand?

Just because it is an amendment to our Constitution doesn't mean we can't repeal it..ie..get rid of it!

I mean...we have done it before.

The United States Of America repealed the 18th Amendment of the Constitution with the 21st Amendment!

Why?

Because of the violence it created.

The violence!

So,if you believe they won't take away our guns because we have a right to them:WRONG!

What in our current political atmosphere or our previous history would even make you think or begin to believe this?

I know,I know..you'll say that I am mixing my apples and oranges.

I am taking what the Tea Party says and thinks out of context.

Nah.

I don't think so.

Take the Boston bombing as an example.Bombings done by an American citizen.

What exactly does the Tea Party believe,here and now?


This is what they say,but not according to the media arm of the party:FOX News.Watch how liberal watchdog,Jon Steward,exposes the true thoughts on this idea.


If you are willing to just throw away all  the other Constitutional amendments 'willy~ nilly',than that probably means your true agenda is not American justice at all.

Especially if your reasons for pushing the gun violence discussion away from 'cure' to gun sales is already suspect.

According to this Gallop poll,91% of Americans support gun background checks.

This only makes sense.Wal*Mart sells a lot of guns.Wal*mart is also into tracking all of your purchases.

In fact,Wal*Mart is not the only giant retailer tracking our purchases.Target is also....something that makes Big Brother seem quaint.

But,somehow,just because Target is the liberal version of Wal*Mart ( it does not sell either guns nor ammo), that doesn't necessarily mean that Wal*Mart's personal purchasing tracking is any less affective.Somehow,I feel that Wal*Mart being Wal*Mart that just the opposite is true!

Thank God for friends being able to still sell guns to friends.Your major store purchases are already being tracked and in the machine.

Doesn't this almost make being against the government background checks a mute point?Or worse..hypocritical?

It's Okay for Wally World to access your gun information,but...

So,if 91% of Americans are for background checks,and most gun purchases are already being tracked,why would a bill to open a discussion about having a discussion  about gun violence be voted down by our USA senators?


I am all for congressmen voting their conscience,but when they vote against  91 % of what their constituents believe because they receive money from a powerful lobby,I say that verges on treason!

TREASON!

If  our senators and congressmen only vote with their pocketbooks,then they are not representing the people:they are voting against the wishes of America!

Sure,it's only the NRA this time.

What if it's Saudi Arabia next time?

The Banks?

The Tea Party is creating the very thing they are complaining about!

White man speaks with forked tongue.

To love America,it is right and true to believe in the whole of our Constitution.Not just the second Amendment,but the document as a whole.

Why?

Because our United States of America Constitution guarantees us our freedoms.

It is a proud document.

As our American flag waving proudly shouts out to the world our right to be free,so does the Constitution spell out these freedoms!

Stay free America!Live free or die!
