GUNS DON’T KILL PEOPLE; CRIMINALS DO
by Bob Russell, ©2023 | The Post and Email
Since the mass shooting in Maine last week the hysterical leftists in the Pravda/Goebbels fake news machine and the regime of the most corrupt and most incompetent man to ever sit in the oval office drag out their old, discredited narrative that people should not be allowed to own firearms. They like to talk about Australia where gun control is absolute. I notice they NEVER mention Switzerland, a country that has a law that makes gun ownership MANDATORY yet has the least gun violence in the world.
Why does the left not talk about Switzerland’s lack of gun violence? Because that would not advance their evil agenda of rendering Americans defenseless in the face of the criminals they refuse to put in prison and also against their push for a global dictatorship. The marxists know that a free America is ensured by citizen ownership of firearms and as long as America is a free nation their global dictatorship CANNOT be implemented. A free America is the linchpin to a free world and American marxists know they cannot succeed until they destroy America as a self-sufficient, self-defending democratic republic based on the Constitution, so they ignore or twist it into a pretzel to get their despicably evil agenda implemented.
In the Maine case the shooter had been involuntarily incarcerated in a mental institution but was kept only two weeks, and the incident apparently was not recorded because he bought a rifle without a problem and went on a rampage of murder before killing himself. His body was found in the woods near where his car was found a day or two ago. The Pravda/Goebbels fake news propagandists and marxist politicians in both political parties so far have not mentioned any facts in the case because the facts, other than that he committed murder, don’t help their evil agenda.
Gun violence IS NOT due to too many guns in the hands of citizens. Gun violence is the result of not keeping dangerous people in prison and refusing to enforce laws that are now on the books. A good guy with a gun is the best defense against a bad guy with a gun. Police can’t be everywhere at once and certainly cannot protect every citizen every second of every day. I don’t blame the police for the problems at all; most of them do their utmost to do their job, but their job mostly involves solving a crime AFTER it has been committed and they are under fire and handcuffed by the same marxists who want We the People to be left defenseless.
Politicians and bureaucrats have very close, very thorough armed protection but We the People don’t deserve protection because we “aren’t as important” as politicians consider themselves. Also, they start spouting about “assault weapons” and high-capacity magazines. Joe dementia came out a few days ago and said “no one needs a gun with 100 rounds in the chamber.” Only one round can be in the chamber at a time. If more than one is sent into the chamber at a time there is a jam and the gun won’t fire.
The marxists like to yap about “assault weapons,” but they have no clue what an “assault rifle” or a “weapon of war” is and never bother to explain their comments.. I have some Ruger 10.22 rifles that have Angel Fire stocks. They look like an AR-15 so are considered “weapons of war” based merely on their appearance. A true assault rifle has a select fire switch, meaning they can fire semi- or full automatic. None of my “assault rifles” has the full automatic option and none of them ever have been nor will ever be used to commit a crime. I use the .22s for target practice and teaching my grandchildren how to handle a gun safely and how to use them properly, including target acquisition and marksmanship. I use the AK for deer hunting and in the case I ever need its firepower for home defense and with all the illegal aliens being let in, including an unknown number of terrorists and gang or drug cartel members. They can also be used for home defense against the government Gestapo when that day comes.
I am 73 years old and a veteran as a weapons specialist of the 7th Special Forces Group. Until I was disabled from a stroke a concealed pistol, a Ruger P-95 with usually four 16-round magazines with me at all times. Odd how I carried a gun for many years yet never harmed anyone, on purpose or by accident. I was a criminal’s worst nightmare, a trained and experienced elite warrior who would use my concealed firearm to take them down if they tried their nonsense in my presence. I have the training and the battle experience to be a valid deterrent to criminals with guns. I had a severe stroke in 2014 and no longer carry due to paralysis of my left side, including total paralysis of my left arm. If faced with a shooter I would use my cane to at least try to stop them. I feel the same way about marxists who want me left defenseless. If the Gestapo comes after my guns I will fight them to the best of my ability and take out as many as I can before they murder me. Any American citizen willing to be disarmed “for their own safety” is a fool who will find themselves living in a concentration camp or prison cell under the thumb of tyrants who lust for the day when they can run roughshod over We the People.
I submit this in the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in faith, with the responsibility given to me by Almighty God to honor His work and not let it die from neglect.
