Police and Gun Control

Another excellent article from ♠ WTS ♠

Gun Control.

It's a complete and utter fallacy to say that removing guns from the populace makes the people of those communities safer.  It's a monumental misplacement of faith to think that a government or government body can protect you from your neighbors.  You have the right to protect yourself, your family, and your property in the United States of America with firearms, and such rights are granted to you via the founding fathers of this nation in the second amendment in the United States Bill of Rights.  The right to protect yourself and bare arms, however, is not a right that any governing body can give to you, it's a right that you have, whether you realize it or not, upon birth.

Gun Control isn't about Guns, it's About Control.

I never get tired of hearing people talk about how their ideas or their political party favorite, or whatever and whoever, are somehow going to change the world, and make it better. It's sort of like when someone blames Islam or Christianity or Judaism for the violence in the world. Religions don't commit acts of violence, violent people do. If you took away all of the religions in the world, you'd have the same violent people left, and they'd only find another reason to do what they were doing already. Of course I've over simplified things, but the previous sentence is still the water floating battleship reality.

Having more faith in government, or in individuals than you have in your own ability to control yourself well; is a sign of low self esteem, and I associate that with humanism. What is humanism? It's the religion that claims that it isn't one. It's the worship of mankind. If you've not reached the conclusion that mankind is a circle jerk fool's parade yet, then let me tell you a story. . .

Smith and Wesson Night Guard Pistols

Excerpt From Post by ~WTS~ on Info Barrel

http://www.smith-wesson.com

Smith & Wesson's new Night Guard series revolvers deliver confidence in every situation. Boasting lightweight scandium alloy frames in various sizes and calibers with front night sights and extreme duty rear sights, these reliable revolvers are the perfect protection - no matter where you find yourself.

The above is from a Smith & Wesson ad in Outdoor Life Magazine. No matter who you are, if you have every lived for long in any Western nation, then you know already that Smith & Wesson is one of the premier and preeminent manufacturers of personal protection firearms, and that is exactly what this product is, it's a pistol designed entirely for personal protection.

Shotguns and rifles have many uses, but pistols are, by and large, entirely instruments designed for protection. Protection is not something that a government can give to you, and the right to protection is not something that government can take away from you. It matters none at all should you be a convicted felon, or not; government can not give or take away your rights to own personal protection firearms except on paper, and in the minds of the masses. You have rights that were given to you by the creator, and government has no rights, but only abilities to suppress those rights.

Unarmed Greyhound Passengers "Frozen" During Bus Hijacking

Had there been several legally armed passengers on board I wonder how long it would have taken to put an end to this situation? Why should the passengers feel it necessary to ‘stand their frozen’ and afraid to move?

Instead of calling in TSA to perform invasive medical and rectal exams in the name of increasing security and public safety, why don’t we exercise a little common sense and train more citizens to defend themselves in public-attack situations?

WRAL.com - A gunman hijacked a Greyhound bus headed to Raleigh Thursday night, but all the passengers and driver managed to escape unharmed, authorities and witnesses said.

State troopers identified the suspect as Jose Flores, 32.

Vance County Sheriff Peter White said that a passenger from Arlington, Va., walked up to the front of bus no. 6516 along Interstate 85 South in Warren County. He asked the driver to be let off, then became irate and pulled out a gun, passengers said.

The man claimed he had a bomb and said, "If I don't get you with the gun, I will get you with the bag," White said. He ordered passengers to get off the bus, but most stood frozen.

…"He was just irate, (didn't) make no sense," said one passenger. "Nobody understood what was the purpose. He kept saying, 'I want to go to the courthouse, the nearest courthouse.'"
Passengers said they were nervous to continue on their trips with Greyhound.
"I still got a long way to go, and these people expect me to get on another bus. Would you get on another bus after you had a gun stuck to your head?"

A passenger, who was traveling to visit family in Florida, called for increased security measures on buses."Something's got to be done. I could have been dead tonight," he said. "Anybody could walk up on here on a Greyhound bus and have a gun on them and without checking nobody. It might slow things down, but this ain't right."
