Venezeula bans private gun ownership. According to the BBC article – Hugo Chavez’s government says the ultimate aim is to disarm all civilians, but his opponents say the police and government may not have the capacity or the will to enforce the new law.
Don’t think that it can’t happen here in the US. There are many anti-gun groups in America. They are just dying to scrap the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution – A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The scary thing isn’t the notion of getting rid of guns. What it boils down to is the fact that there are those who believe they can create the perfect world, a world of subservience, a world where the gene of defending one’s self and family needn’t be available. It isn’t about guns. It’s about power and absolute control of the people. Without guns government (the one’s who attack our way of life with debt, aka economic violence everyday) can pass any laws, search you and yours at any time, etc.. Without the threat of self-protection the government and the complicit corporations can have you.
Currently there is one UN treaty that addresses the reduction of small arms – the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). Apparently President Obama may sign it.
Small arms (our right to bear arms) will be monitored and eventually regulated by international powers if this trend of giving up American resources, American capital, and American citizen’s rights continues. US sovereignty and law is being watered down. It is no accident that the 2nd Amendment is being attacked. This is a methodical and well-planned move to disarm intelligent citizens who believe in freedom.
In America alone there are thousands of organizations, publications, media outlets, and individuals who are anti-gun. Recently a friend of mine, a member of the National Rifle Association (NRA), handed me a list (published by the NRA) of anti-gun radicals. Reading this list you may be surprised who’s on it. People like Sylvester Stallone the actor who has made millions with his Hollywood movie franchise the Rambo series is listed. In a way it’s no surprise about Stallone. He can make money at something so popular and then use those profits to speak out against gun rights. He is deceptive at best and unpatriotic at worst.
“It [2nd Amendment] has to be stopped, and someone really has to go on the line, a certain dauntless political figure, and say, ‘It’s ending, it’s over, all bets are off. It’s not 200 years ago, we don’t need this anymore, and the rest of the world doesn’t have it. Why should we?”
– Sylvester Stallone on Access Hollywood, June 8, 1998
The attack on our rights to bear arms and to protect ourselves, our family and friends, and our property is under attack. Be aware that those in power DO NOT HAVE YOUR BEST INTERESTS AT HEART. Government is not about you and your rights. It is about consolidation of power. The question we must ask is, “What is the final goal after power is consolidated?” This is a legitimate query. Beyond that, I don’t care. I don’t want our most basic rights taken away. It’s evil.
After reading this entry it must be evident that what I and many others claim to be happening actually is. How can anyone deny it? What I really wonder is what can we do about it? I want you to write to your local representatives, your local congressman, and even the President of the United States to not sign the ATT treaty. Once you have done that then sign up with the NRA. Last, buy a gun and protect your family from any tyranny that may come knocking on your door.
Stay strong!
