MNPROGRESSIVEPROJECT.COM 1 Hour Ago Top Ten Reasons We Do Not Need Gun Control Tue Jan 01, 2013 at 13:23:29 PM CST 1) Guns Don't Kill People, Pencils Do Yes, you can kill folks with lots of different things. It is the exact same thing to be attacked with a pencil as it is to be attacked with a gun. The lethality of of a pencil, hammer, or knife is the same. This is iron clad logic. 2) Registering Stuff Means It Gets Taken Away. Just last summer I bought a new car. I had to register it. Any day now the guv'ment will come take away my car. I know registering my gun would immediately lead to someone taking it. It is not a paranoid delusion. Just like they are going to take my car, house, and vote. All things I have registered with the government. 3) Speaking of registering, you shouldn't have to register to do something in the Bill Of Rights. In fact, I say we organize ourselves and go practice our 1st Amendment Right to Assembly down at City Hall. If you're i...

WND.COM 3 Hours Ago ‘Evil gene’ in Sandy Hook killer? by DJ Dolce Text smaller Text bigger A Christian evangelist and best-selling author of dozens of books has a tip for scientists who have launched a study of the DNA of Sandy Hook killer Adam Lanza, searching for an “evil” gene. It’s already been found. “These scientists can’t see the forest for the trees, and this is what happens when there is a clash of two worldviews,” said Ray Comfort, who recently released “The Beatles, God and the Bible,” about the spirituality of the Fab Four, along with an accompanying movie, “Genius.” The project exposes the theological side of the Beatles, offering unique and fascinating insight into the spirituality of the world’s most famous rock band. He continued, “Secular humanity says that mankind is basically good, and if someone does something evil (such as mass murder), they’ve gone off the rails and there must therefore be a reason for the moral failure. “Perhaps he was bullied as...

AMERICANTHINKER.COM 8 Hours Ago Articles: The Fallacy of Gun Control by Edward Paltzik As a parent of two boys under the age of four, a responsible gun owner, and an NRA member, I'd like to take this opportunity to rebut "Sensible Arms Control," in which my good friend Brett Joshpe argues for more gun control following the Newtown tragedy. Gun Rights are Inalienable and Natural There is nothing "lazy" about characterizing the inalienable right to defend self, family, and property, and the right to hunt, as "natural rights." Preaching from their ivory towers (typically capitol buildings, college campuses, gated communities, and urban apartments), gun control proponents casually dismiss the dire consequences of disarming law-abiding citizens. I own a home in an empty corner of Maine, where my family and I are generally out of range of rapid police assistance both on our property and while traveling in the area. As a concealed carry permit holder...

COUNTERPUNCH.ORG 52 Minutes Ago Gun Control and Arms Control by Lawrence Wittner In a number of ways, gun control issues are remarkably similar to arms control issues. Gun controllers argue that the availability of guns facilitates the use of these weapons for murderous purposes. Arms controllers make much the same case, asserting that weapons buildups lead to arms races and wars. Both stress the imperative of weapons controls in an era of growing technological sophistication, pointing out that assault weapons sharply increase dangers domestically, just as nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons increase the dangers of a holocaust globally. Weapons enthusiasts have also adopted a common approach. The National Rifle Association insists that weapons are harmless. According to the NRA, “people” are the problem, which can be solved by “good guys” using guns to intimidate or kill “bad guys.” Adopting much the same position, the military-industrial complex and its fans contend that t...

BACKWOODSHOME.COM 11 Hours Ago Urgent!!: A Feinstein New Year For You The New Year kicks off with Vice President Biden, a super-supporter of “gun control” in general and the “assault weapons ban” in particular chairing a blue ribbon panel on “gun violence.” When President Obama gave that assignment, he said he wanted all sides heard from, but with the panel about to convene, there is no indication that the National Rifle Association, the Second Amendment Foundation, or any other entity which supports the civil rights of gun owners has been invited to the discussion. One of the first items on the agenda for Congress in January 2013, if not the first, will be the new and even more Draconian “assault weapons and magazine ban” long since drafted by Dianne Feinstein, Democrat Senator from California. Here, in 1995, Dianne Feinstein explains why she would ban all private ownership of firearms if she could: Read this, from GunsAmerica: http://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/we-stand-as-one-...
