In a speech given by the current Elected Socialist, said small town Americans are Bitter and clinging to their guns and religion because of economics and apathy and fear of people not like them...What a Crock of crapola!
We The People of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA cling to our guns to protect our families and our freedom!
Guns are Liberty's teeth. They are the tools to protect us from tyranny in Government and assault from people out to harm us either foreign, or domestic.
The founding fathers and everyone with an ounce of sense knows this.
As James Madison said;
T]he advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.
Federalist No. 46
HOWEVER:
When government, tyrants, socialists, and criminals, threaten our fundamental right to life and limb they do it in an obscure methodical method... like what's happening now and even though SCOTUS tossed us a bone with Heller don't become complacent.
The appointment of Eric Holder, HR 45 and whatever else they throw at us,this is a glimpse of what's yet to come as the current SCOTUS members get set to retire or due to health step down. Eric Holder is known as anti gun as well as for freeing (helping to) FLA terrorists and pushing pardons for Criminals in Billy Boy Clinton's exit from the oval office.
When the case against Miller went before SCOTUS back in 1939 it was won only because the bootlegger and his attorney didn't show up to fight it. THAT WAS THE BEGINNING TO THE END!
When the bonus marchers went to Washington in the middle of the depression to ask for their government to give them their military service bonus' early at a reduced amount, they were met by McArthur, Patton, and, Eisenhower in tanks and on horseback with sabers and pistols who burned out of their shanty town and some died.
The '68 gun ban and others are slowly eating our rights away.
Despite the Elected Socialist's lip service that he "respects" the 2nd Amendment .. He and Eric Holder will work to destroy our Constitutional rights, they, along with the leftist Congress, might as well have brought back Janet Reno or Sarah Brady to head the assault on our freedom.
Below is a chart from the Jews for Firearm Preservation which shows how slowly and methodically people who were disarmed fared:
Hitler started with registration, too...

DO I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION YET?
In this Country we have a proud heritage of FREEDOM, some received it sooner than others but, by the passage of the 13th, 14th and 19th Amendments to our rule of law (the Constitution) every legal American citizen is equal, and afforded the same rights.
(EXCEPT IN NORTH CAROLINA WHERE JIM CROW LAWS STILL EXIST!)
The economic downturn has frightened many normally good and patriotic citizens into non thinkers who will shortly regret their choice to support the Elected Socialist's feel good mantra about going to the center, spreading the wealth, and hope and change, he is the most far left threat to hit our American freedom since King George the III.
In reality:
We're going to be seeing more bank robberies, home invasions,hold ups, and stick-ups at the local late night grocery and 7-11 stores as people have less and less to keep because it's been spread around and they can't afford to feed their kids..
And...
We're going to be slowly and methodically be disarmed, regulated and taxed, so severely restricted that we'll have no defense. No ways to feed our families, friends and neighbors.
All because AMERICANS lost sight of history and don't believe it can happen here....
WELL IT CAN!!!
AND
WE NEED TO TAKE CHARGE of our lives AS OUR FOREFATHERS DID
AND SAY
WE'RE PROUD,
WE'RE AMERICANS, AND,
DON'T TREAD ON ME!
REMEMBER FLY YOUR CULPEPER FLAG
