With Hillary Clinton’s sights on the White House in 2008 and Bill’s hopes of holding the UN’s Secretary General position once Kofi Annan steps down in 2006, this country could be in for some serious trouble. It’s no secret that the Clintons are not exactly the most gun friendly politicians this country has ever seen and the UN doesn’t even try to hide the fact that they want a world wide ban on firearms. The Clintons ending up in those positions would be a dream come true for the Brady Campaign and other anti-gun groups. If we’re not paying attention, what is happening in England and other places around the world could happen here.Over the past several years, the people of England have fell victim to radical legislators and courts who pass and uphold the most absurd laws restricting a person’s right to defend his home, his family and himself. A man’s home in England is no longer his castle, where he could use reasonable force to defend it. In England, there is a police force that either can’t or won’t protect its citizens, who are defenseless to protect themselves.
The media in England has made phrases, such as “a robbery gone wrong” and “alleged murder” commonplace when referring to murdered homeowners who confront intruders in their homes. So I guess had a robbery “gone right”, the homeowners would awake to find that an “alleged robbery” had taken place. Ridiculous!
An elderly woman in England who fell victim to several burglaries, decided she would put barbed wire around her home, with hopes that it would deter future break-ins. Unfortunately, she was ordered to take it down because “it could injure someone who foolishly tries to climb it.” (I’m not kidding about this one either, as nuts as it may sound. Check out http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1479852.stm for the story).
So why am I harping on England?
British citizens lost their right to legally keep and bear arms, but not because it was a popular sentiment among the people. They lost their right because of radical left wing lawyers, judges and members of federal and local government. I fear for our rights now more than ever, as we have seen our own share of radical leftists in America who have tried to make gay marriage legal and to keep God out of every public facility. It’s just a matter of time before they come after our guns, and more importantly than that, our right to defend our families, our homes and ourselves.
As I said before, the Clinton’s have their sights on your right to bear arms. So what needs to be done? First, we need to make sure that the Supreme Court justices are replaced with pro-Second Amendment justices. Secondly, we have to get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.
How can you help? Start by writing letters to both houses of Congress, the President and State Government officials. If you think your letters won’t be read, you’re wrong. I’ve written letters to my state’s senators, representatives and the President, and have almost always gotten some response back. You can be sure that at a minimum these politicians know how many people write to them, either for or against a particular topic, because they need to know what issues are important to the people who will vote for their re-election.
I’ll even make it easy on you. Visit http://www.congress.org/ and type in your zip code. It will give you links with information on how you can contact your congressmen and other elected officials. Then just sit down one afternoon and write a letter. It doesn’t have to be a long letter, just a few short paragraphs explaining how strong you feel about our right to bear arms.
