"The battle for our rights is real and non-stop. I have said this before, the NRA is like the Little Dutch Boy with his finger in the dike. Help the NRA help us. $30 is peanuts for what we get in return."
Last weekend on Fox and Friends, Pete Hegseth was so outraged by the student march about disarming America, he sent some money into the NRA. Why is that such a big deal? Anyone paying attention yesterday saw the Left let slip their real intentions. And it had to come from a 97 year old former Supreme Court Justice.
Justice Stephens believes the Second Amendment should be repealed. Let that sink in for a minute. Repealed. Done away with. The guardian of our other liberties - gone. Why would he say that? Number one, he is a bleeding heart liberal. He was the BIG MISTAKE that President Ford made. Second, Stephens believes that the Second Amendment is an anachronism - a relic of the 18th century.
Stephens then continued to babble on. He talked about what a mistake the Heller Case was. For gun nuts like me, that was a pivotal case. That case gave legs to the Castle Doctrine. Without the Heller case and the resulting Castle Doctrine, anytime someone broke into your house to rob, injure or kill you, you would just be a patsy. He said (in so many words), the Heller case gave the NRA the swagger it has today, to be obstructionist in any proposed gun legislation. Without the Second Amendment, much of the NRA's power goes away.
Bingo! Thank you Justice Stephens! You just revealed the prize inside the box! Most of us gun nuts already suspected that total disarmament was the ultimate objective. "Oh, no - we are not against guns. We just need better background checks and a ban on military type assault weapons. That is it" Right. Sure. Not one inch we will give. The slope is very slippery and we know the final objective. The only change I would like to see in our gun laws is Constitutional Carry enacted in every state.
Right now, only somewhere between 5% and 10% of all legal gun owners are members of the NRA. If you are part of the 85% to 90% who are not members, please consider joining - today. If you don't own a gun and never will, yet still believe in our Second Amendment, please consider joining. For $30/year, you can help us fight off the gun grabbers. And if you live in Minnesota, consider joining Gun Owners Civil Rights Alliance.
The battle for our rights is real and non-stop. I have said this before, the NRA is like the Little Dutch Boy with his finger in the dike. Help the NRA help us. $30 is peanuts for what we get in return.
Nearly half (45%) of NRA members say owning a gun is very important to their overall identity; only 20% of non-NRA members say the same. And members of the NRA are nearly unanimous in their view that owning a gun is essential to their personal freedom: 92% of NRA members say this, compared with 70% of nonmembers.
ReplyDeleteNRA members espouse “the paranoid style in American politics". They posit a good, mostly rural, less educated, implicitly white Volk being undermined by a corrupt, mostly urban, over-educated, and foreign set of elites.
NRA memberships pairs well with your world-view, so your blog makes sense to you and like minded folk.
I will try to foster the opposite with my vote and now may have to include burning down gun shops, bomb scare calls to gun shows to empty the arenas, etc. Remington's bankruptcy gives us hope that the tide has turned. Besides; aren't 375 million guns enough for America?
