Enemy of my Enemy

We on the right are aware of the contempt that the radical liberal left has for our Constitution. Occupants of Congress, and even the White House itself have shown their unashamed disregard and disrespect for the sacred document that our country is founded upon. Presently we have the Harry Reids, Nancy Pelosis, BHOs, and let’s not forget the former president Bill “I loathe the military” Clinton. Even George W. showed some disregard for the document, though not nearly as egregiously as the present occupant has. Our mainstream media has been in bed with these Constitution haters increasingly more often, and as in any person’s life who is hiding something, sooner or later they’re going to slip up and the truth is going to come out.

Alan Keyes makes some excellent points on this subject today about a remark that liberally biased Chris Matthews coughed up concerning the President’s recent visit to West Point.

Here is an excerpt:

But America's military leaders have been educated to respect the authority of the Constitution, not that of any given individual or faction. As this safeguards the liberty of the people, it also makes the professional discipline of the military a reliable friend to all government officials who act with respect for its constitutional provisions. If Obama faction zealots like Chris Matthews instead see the educational home of that military tradition as the "enemy camp," their apprehension speaks tellingly of their own deep abandonment of the constitutional loyalty they apparently fear in the honorable defenders of the Constitution.

My enemy is the liberal who hates what the founding Fathers of this country envisioned. The enemy of my enemy is the US armed forces, who have sworn to uphold the Constitution. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Here's a link to pictures of the Tea Party from all over the country. I think the sleeping giant has been awakened.

Tea Party Terrorists - Part 3

And more pics.

Tea Party Terrorists

The Tea Party I attended was huge - between 4000 and 5000 people. People like me. Mostly Christian, conservative, family oriented, for smaller government, for small business, for less taxation, for enforcement of our borders against illegals, for the sanctity of life, for freedom, for states' rights, for the Constitution and all its amendments.... Oops...wait a minute ...I think I just described a huge crowd of potential terrorists!

Take a look at some of these potentially threatening right-wing extremists:









Funny. I didn't see any violence. Out of 4-5000 people there with signs, I only saw 2 or 3 that would be considered "offensive". Everyone was polite. I felt safe.
And do you know what all these 1000s of radical right-wingers did when they left the city municipal grounds? They picked up their own trash and left the place spotless.

They sure didn't look or act like terrorists to me...but then, the government always knows best, doesn't it?

The News Media is Lying about Pastor Fred Winters

The media is lying to us. Fox news, My AT&T, and the rest of them - they're all lying.

They are all saying that a Pastor Fred Winters, of First Baptist Church of Maryville Illinois, was shot in front of his congregation during the first morning service and he later died of those gunshot wounds.

This story did not happen. It can't happen. It won't happen.

Don't believe the media! Illinois has some of the strictest gun laws in the US:

In Illinois, it is against the law to carry a concealed weapon.

In Illinois,a buyer is required to show his mandatory Firearms Owner’s Identification Card (FOID) when purchasing any firearms or ammunition.

In Illinois,it is unlawful for any person to possess any firearm with intent to use it unlawfully against another.

In Illinois, it is against the law to possess a firearm if within the past five years you have been a patient in a mental hospital.

In Illinois, It is unlawful to carry or possess any firearm in any vehicle or concealed on or about the person, except on one's land or one's fixed place of business.

In Illinois, It is unlawful to carry or possess any firearm on any public street or other public lands within the corporate limits of a city, village, or incorporated town

Gun laws KEEP THIS KIND OF THING FROM HAPPENING!

This story did not happen. This man is still alive and no one was injured, because ILLINOIS has TOUGH GUN LAWS.

2nd Amendment Thoughts

Some who know me have been suprised to hear my views on gun ownership. I am a female, a Christian, a conservative, a wife, a mother, and a grandmother- pretty much in that order too. If one were to cross paths with me out in public it is unlikely that one would suspect that I am an NRA supporter who loves to hunt and shoot. I do love to hunt and shooting is a lot of fun as well.

These are not the main reasons that I support personal gun ownership. I believe in personal responsibility, and being responsible for oneself means being able to defend oneself. One need only read the headlines on a few of the major Internet news sites or the cover of a major newspaper to see that criminals abound in our society and they don't follow the rules (thus the "criminal" label). Police are not hired to protect the citizenry. They are hired to apprehend and arrest criminals and turn them over to be prosecuted. Their presence sometimes deters criminals, but they can't be everywhere at once. So we should be willing, able, and skilled enough to protect ourselves. You can't often fight a criminal who has a gun by hitting or kicking him. It's also hard to hide from a criminal who is pointing a gun at you. Criminals are going to have weapons. No law will change that.
NO LAW WILL CHANGE THAT.

Guns are equalizers. Especially for women. Given that most women are not physically able to ward off an attack even if they have an opportunity to do so, having a weapon gives them a fighting chance to stop an attack.

Though Hollywood loves to film scenes of women screaming uncontrollably and running away from their assailants in high heels and hands waving, I prefer a different scenario. How about this. A criminal approaches a woman, intent on physically subduing her and sexually assaulting her, and the woman suddenly pulls out her concealed sub-compact 9mm semi-automatic and tells the guy "not this time, punk" and empties her 10 or 16 round magazine until he is no longer a threat.

I'd much rather be a survivor than a victim.




I believe law abiding citizens should be able to own whatever weapons they choose - as many as they choose, and the Second Amendment backs me up on this. Just as one has to pass a test to get a driver's license, I also believe one should pass a gun safety and training course to own a weapon. Some disagree with me on this, but guns and vehicles are both capable of killing people - so there should be some accountability.

I said earlier: Criminals are going to have weapons.
No law will change that.
NO LAW WILL CHANGE THAT.

Guns laws are idiocy.
Gun laws do not stop crime.
Gun laws are designed to control honest, law-abiding citizens, not criminals.

This brings me to the number one reason I support private gun ownership.

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.

Necessary to the security of a free State...

Without the Second Amendment, there is nothing the people can do to protect their other Constitutional Rights from a tyrannical government. Without the Second Amendment, the "free State" can quickly disintegrate.

So before you start critizing those of us who support and encourage private gun ownership, ask yourself this question. If the government comes after something that is yours or wants to force you to do something unconstitutional, or tell you how to raise your children, or where you can or cannot worship, or take your money and possessions and give them to someone else, what are you going to do without weapons? Will you be a survivor or a victim?

Protect Yourself. Nobody Else Will.

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day. He's a retired State Trooper and a gun dealer/trainer. He told me a young man in his twenties was riding through the downtown area of the city I live in recently and three bullets came through his vehicle, one lodging in his cheek. The bullets were 22 cal. and he's gonna be ok. But the city police basically said "what do you want us to do about it?".

One of the many reasons I have a CCP. You can't depend on law enforcement to help you out. If you want to be protected, you'd better learn to protect yourself. Most of the criminals on the street have already spent time and are back on the street to prey on the innocent once again. For one thing, in my city at least, the police don't get paid enough to risk their lives. Secondly, it's not really their job to protect the public. Their job is to arrest bad guys when they do bad things.

Flash ahead a few years...

What will happen if BHO does what most gun owners believe he will do - and that is start grabbing weapons from law-abiding citizens? Think that we'll be more safe than we are now? Think the bad guys will give up their guns? Think the police will be more willing to protect us?

Think again.
