GUN CONTROL LAWS - And The Paper They Are Written on

Since the carnage at fort Hood last week, To hear some people tell it, radical Muslim and Army psychiatrist Nidal Malik Hasan did not kill people – his guns alone did. It was not his radical religion the guns are to blame. The gun control nuts are having a ball with this tragedy and loss of life. This happens every time when people like Hasan kills and spreads terror with a fire arm. Honest gun owners pay the price every time. According to Chicago Mayor Richard Daley – who is now arguing to the U.S. Supreme Court for the power to disarm law-abiding people in Chicago –  it was not Maj. Hasan's radical Muslim beliefs that drove him to murder innocent colleagues; it was the fact that "America loves guns." Daley explained, "We love guns to a point that we see the devastation on a daily basis."
What turnip truck did this man fall off? Put him back in the turnip patch. Was it Hasan's love for guns or his love for a radical religion that caused him to kill. Anyone that has just the smallest amount of sense will tell you that it was not his love for guns, but his belief in radical Islam that caused him to commit these murders.

The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence also jumped at the chance to blame guns first, this is what they said two days after the shootings, " This latest tragedy, at a heavily fortified Army base, ought to convince more Americans to reject the argument that the solution to gun violence is to arm more people with more guns in more places.  Enough is enough."  By their twisted reasoning, America's love of airplanes led to the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The solution to stopping the 9/11 Islamic terrorists, you see, was fewer people in fewer airplanes in fewer places. As for Fort Hood, the Brady Campaign got it one hundred per cent backwards. Thanks to a 1993 Clinton imposed presidential order, Army posts are an anti-gun supporter's dream, a miniature copy of a "gun-free" society: Only the police are allowed to carry weapons, service weapons are signed out only for training or maintenance, and any personal weapons must be kept locked and registered with the base provost marshal. Strangely, the same soldiers whom we trust with automatic weapons in Afghanistan and Iraq are not allowed to carry weapons on an American post or base. Some of the soldiers just came back from those places, carried guns everyday while over there. And yet all such "gun-control," which the Brady Campaign-types support, did nothing to stop Hasan from sneaking in two personal handguns. Killers with no regard for other people's lives are hardly going to obey at anti-gun rules. Gun control only controls and limits the law-abiding not the people who want to kill, maim, and slaughter. Gun control laws are worthless as the paper that they are written on!

Despite being "heavily fortified," Fort Hood had an unarmed population living under a deadly mixture of a false sense of security and no means of self-defense. They were sitting ducks. We as Americans also live under a false sense of security and for the most part we are sitting ducks also. While soldiers should never have to worry about attacks from one of their own, forcing them to be unarmed makes them more vulnerable to traitors and saboteurs than the embattled enemy that they fight. Maj. Hasan knew this, and to maximize his evil plot he did not attack the armed MPs or the civilian police department, This cowardly man attacked dozens of soldiers and officers at the Soldier Readiness Center whom he knew would be unarmed. And they were unarmed precisely because of the "gun-control" measures at Ft. Hood. So where is the logic for gun control here?

Our college campuses has to put up and deal with the same deadly "gun-control" policies. On April 16, 2007, Virginia Tech student Seung-Hui Cho, armed with a pair of handguns, massacred 32 students and faculty and injured another 25. Even then, the anti-gun fanatics rose up and condemned the guns. But Virginia Tech's campus, like most colleges, was a so-called "gun-free zone" where students and faculty were not permitted to carry weapons. This made people on Virginia Tech's campus, like those at Fort Hood, an easy target for a lone, suicidal, jihad juiced, gun-wielding murderer. What the Brady Campaign failed to mention is that it took "gun violence" to stop the gun violence at Fort Hood and Virginia Tech. It was police officers, with guns, that brought down Hasan last week; and it took armed police breaking into the building where Cho had barricaded himself before he took his own life. But that means that until the armed police arrived, Hasan shot 42 people and Cho shot 57. Remember the church, in the mid west last year when a lone gunman shot someone outside and then went inside where he was meet by a off duty female security guard, who took her handgun out of her handbag and shot him. If she was not there, with her handgun, how many people would have been killed or wounded before the gunman was stopped? Would it have been as many as the 42 people that Hasan shot or the 57 people that Cho shoot, or would it have been worse? The Bradys and Daleys, of this country, need to answer that question, but they never will.

The question must be asked: "How much sooner would either spree have ended had any one of the hundreds of other soldiers or students (or even faculty) been armed?" How many more unarmed victims in "gun-free" zones or cities must die before some of these foolish gun laws are changed? Thomas Paine explained that the erroneous belief of the peace loving Quakers was their failure to account for the fallen nature of man:  He Said this : "Could the peaceable principle of the Quakers be universally established, arms and the art of war would be wholly removed: But we live not in a world of angels. … I am thus far a Quaker, that I would gladly agree with all the world to lay aside the use of arms, and settle matters by negotiation: but unless the whole will, the matter ends, and I take up my musket and thank heaven He has put it in my power. "The problem is not weapons, be they firearms, knives, or fists, the problem is that man has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."
Well spoken Thomas Paine!

With each news report about Maj. Hasan, it becomes more evident and unmistakable that political correctness handicapped the resolve of the

Army and federal agencies to sufficiently and adequately investigate him and for them to respond to the many indicators of his increasingly radical Muslim beliefs. Radical Islamic terrorists belong in front sights of our troops, not among them. Hopefully, America and her armed forces have finally learned that radical Muslims ought to be purged, not promoted. Nor should we be led to believe the politically correct lie that taking guns out of law-abiding hands is the solution and the answer to stop the use of guns by the wrong people. A "gun-control" law stops bullets as effectively as the paper it's printed upon. Until the homicidal psychopaths and the radical juiced up jihadists of the world "lay aside the use of fire arms" (or airplanes, or IEDs, etc.), the right of the people, students and soldiers to keep and bear arms should not be infringed upon.

November 11, 1965.
LZ X-ray , Vietnam .

You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded and dying in the jungle in the Ia Drang Valley. Your infantry unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense, from 100 or 200 yards away, that your own Infantry Commander has ordered the Medi Vac helicopters to stop coming in. You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns and you know you're not getting out, Your family is half way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day. Then - over the machine gun noise - you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter. You look up to see an unarmed Huey. But, it doesn't seem real because no Medieval markings are on it. Ed Freeman is coming for you.
He's not Medi Vac, so it's not his job, but he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire anyway. Even after the Medi Vac were ordered not to come. He's coming anyway. And he drops it in and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 2 or 3 of you on board. Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire to the doctors and nurses. And, he kept coming back!! 13 more times! He took about 30 of you and your buddies out who would never have gotten out.

Medal of Honor Recipient, Ed Freeman, died last Wednesday at the age of 80, in Boise , Idaho . May God Rest His Soul. I bet you didn't hear about this hero's passing, but we've sure seen a whole bunch about Michael Jackson. . . Shame on the American media!

Acts Of Terrorism

After the latest terrorist act on innocent people at Fort Hood it's somewhat disturbing and alarming, why Obama continues to be counted present on the terrorism question. Most Americans believe that the Fort Hood massacre was a act of terrorism and want it investigated as a terrorist act, however Obama sees the mass murder as a "tragedy" and a violent crime. He told ABC News: "In a country of 300 million people, there are going to be acts of violence that are inexplicable."
But Fort Hood, in the opinion of most Americans, is not one of them. When a man e-mails an al-Qaida recruiter in Yemen, someone who enlist others for the jihadist cause at least 15 times, and then cries out "Allahu Akbar" (god is great) while gunning down unarmed innocent people, it is plain to be seen, the facts are there: Hasan is a terrorist, a jihadist. So tell me why does Obama have difficulty accepting that? What is his problem? You never win a war by being killed and maimed. You win the war by killing and maiming the other guy. That was a hard statement but it is the truth.

Obama has ordered that the words "war on terror" be replaced with "overseas contingency operations," and used instead of calling it what it really is. "A WAR ON TERROR" I have no problem calling it what it is and most Americans do not either. Obama calls the killings in Fort Hood Texas "a crime against our nation." President Obama, wake up! It was an act of terror, an act of war, against this nation, plain and simple. In theory, you could call the massacre murder of innocent people at Fort Hood a crime. But the reason was instinctively jihad, the Muslim holy war. So if you want to be straightforward and tell the truth, the Fort Hood mass murders was an act of terrorism to further their objective: the destruction and obliteration of people who do not believe in Islam. Hasan is not a nut cake. He is a is a person who hates anybody that is a infidel and does not believe the way he does .

Americans are at jeopardy and in danger because Muslim terrorists want to kill us. We have to have that mind set and let it sink in. That doesn't mean most Muslims subscribe to jihad, but it does mean the problem is entirely and absolutely Muslim. It does not come from any other group of people or religion. These acts will happen over and over again until Obama and his administration call it what it is and do more about it other than be counted "Present" There is no hugging the fence, you cannot be luke warm, you are either hot or cold.

It is good that Obama and his socialist friends wants to win the Muslim world over. But he'll never do it by avoiding the truth. He will never do it by being counted present. He should be asking the decent Muslims to help us to crush the terrorists in our midst. Calling the clear act of terrorism at Fort Hood a tragic crime is soft soaping the act and at its best is just being "political correct". We must tell Obama and his "politically correct" politicians to correctly define murderous acts of these juiced up jihadist. Call it what it is. What Obama is calling crime is not acceptable in this very dangerous world. He needs to call it what it is, TERRORISM

MEN – Make sure You Have Your Miranda Card – before you hit the beach!

Attorney General Eric Holder decision to drag Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and others now held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to New York city for a courthouse trial not far from the former location of the World Trade Center, that was destroyed in the Sept. 11, 2001, in which nearly 3,000 people were killed by an act of war against this country. Holder said the suspects will be in New York "to answer for their alleged crimes in a courthouse just blocks away from where the twin towers once stood." This choice is a good sign that the Obama administration is returning to a pre-9/11 way of thinking, when such cases were dealt with in civilian courts. There should be a military decision to the cases, since this was really an act of war and the defendants were seized by military troops as part of the nation's war on terror. The 911 attacks were a act of war not a criminal act and should be dealt with as such.

This decision is not only foolish, but founded on a denial or the Obama administration to face the fact that what we are caught up with here is a war with people who follow a religiously-based ideology that calls on them to kill us, and to return instead to the mindset that prevailed before Sept. 11 that acts like the first World Trade Center bombing, the attacks on our embassies in Africa and other such acts can and should be treated as conventional crimes and tried in civilian courts. The sad fact is these are not crimes but acts of terror and war. There is a big difference here. By bringing terror suspects into New York, the Obama administration is risking turning the city into "the center and focal point of trouble in the form of murder and more terrorist acts by fanatic followers of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed."
There is also the possible intelligence secrets will be exposed as part of the legal proceedings in a civilian Court. This should never happen. The American people should not sit down and not say a word about the reckless undermining of this nations security by the Obama administration and his attorney general Eric Holder.

The decision by Obama's Justice Department to bring terror suspects into the U.S. and put them on trial in New York City will raise the danger level for that city and all Americans. What this administration fails to do is see this as what it is: TERRORISM. They will not even say the word. Having these trails in New York City is giving the terrorist just what they want: A outlet to promote and spur more terrorism in this country.

The Obama administration has ordered the FBI and CIA to inform terrorists  that are caught in foreign  that they "have the right to remain silent" before probing them for information that will save American lives. What is going on here? According to report in The Weekly Standard, a senior Republican on the House Intelligence Committee has revealed that "the Obama Justice Department has quietly ordered FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high value detainees captured and held at U.S. detention facilities in Afghanistan." What rights do these people have not being American Citizens? The successes in stopping more killing of Americans by terrorist would have happened if we had had to treat Khalid Sheikh Mohammed like a white-collar criminal – read him his Miranda rights and get him a lawyer who surely would have insisted that his client simply shut up



This policy of the Obama administration is part of a larger plan to replace the CIA dominated method of secret covert arrest and interrogations with a extensively expanded role for the FBI and Justice Department in counter-terrorism operations. According to a recent Los Angeles Times report, FBI agents will collect evidence to criminally prosecute all suspected terrorists. What a mindset! It would seem the last thing we want is Khalid Sheikh Mohammed or any other al-Qaeda terrorist to remain silent. Our focus should be on preventing the next attack, not giving radical jihadists a new tactic to resist interrogation, in other words lawyering up." Counter-terrorism operations is an intelligence or military issue, not a law enforcement one But, under Obama's new "global justice" plan, the goal is to ensure that all suspected terrorists can be tried in a U.S. or foreign court of law. If this kind of reasoning was in place during World War Two we could have kissed the victory of that war good bye. What Obama is trying to do is bring us into a one world government.

With many thousands of lives that could be in the balance, it does not make good sense to let the terrorists answer questions in their own good time or whenever they want to. We do not need to give them a platform to further their agenda of radical Islam. That is exactly what is going to happen and not only that we will have another three circus like the OJ Simpson trail. a suspected terrorist who remains silent will not provide the U.S. with vital information about impending attacks. If we read these terrorist Miranda warnings we would have obtained none of the information they had in their head about imminent threats against the American people."

UNITED STATES MILITARY BASES - Gun Free Zones

A week ago there was a terrorist attack on one of our military bases which was the worst act of terrorism since 911. Even though our government fails to call it what it was, terrorism plain and simple.  It appears that it’s not enough for our government that America’s armed forces risk their lives overseas defending our freedom. These days, our soldiers aren't even safe here at home stationed on secure military bases. 

On November 5th, a lone gunman murdered 13 fully-trained, ready to deploy soldiers, and wounded 29 more, in the most shocking terrorist attack on American soil since 9/11. Why was this shocking incident allowed to take place? On an army base with all the trained men and women, the best trained in the world, with all the weapons why was this allowed to happen? How was Nidal Hasan able to take down so many trained soldiers before he was stopped? The answer is simple: The base was a “gun-free safe zone.” Gun-free zones only help provide helpless targets for terrorist and mass murders.

It is because this government thinks it is better to keep its armed service members unarmed. That sounds silly, even stupid but the truth is the military men and woman of this country are prohibited and forbidden from carrying the weapons they are trained and trusted to use in the heat of battle on base. President Clinton was the person behind this thoughtless and foolish policy back in 1993 when he declared all military bases “Gun Free Zones.” We can trust theses men and women to fight our countries’ battles and to stop aggression, but we cannot trust them with guns on base. Now what is wrong with that picture? As a result of this thirteen people were killed and thirty more were wounded. The United States is in a war and we must take all the measures to protect our military and the civilian population that is possible. We must take measures like Israel. You do not see any gun-free zones in that tiny country. You see a country’s’ population ready for anything.  

“Gun Free Zones” do nothing but reassure and guarantee criminals, and now terrorists, that they will find unarmed victims defenseless and helpless against their murderous and bloodthirsty rampage. It is easy to shoot at somebody that cannot shoot back. This must stop and people must wake up. If strict measures are not taken the same thing that happen at Fort Hood could happen in your home town and even on your door step. If guns are band, which by the way is right around the corner, how will the average citizen protect their self from people like Nidal Hasan. These people, with their ideology and beliefs  are living in every small town and city in our country. With all due respect, how fast would your police department’s response time be? Will it be fast enough to save your life and the lives of your love ones, or would you end up like the soldiers at Fort Hood? Who knows where or how many sleeper cells are in this country. The government, actually, tells the American people very little about this. How can we count on a government that will not even call terrorist what they are: “TERRORIST”

Maybe I’m crazy, as some that read this might think, but I’d would have rather the soldiers delivered a barrage of bullets to end Hasan’s attack the second he opened fire. I’d rather Hasan was dead and the heroes he murdered were still alive. I rather for him to be dead instead of the thirty injured people that were shot by him and some critical. This is exactly what would have happen if they were allowed to carry their weapons. By the way soldiers go through more firearms training than the local police departments and yet it was the local police department that took this man down. They were allowed to carry guns on the base but the soldiers are not.

But because of Clinton’s ingenious policy of an unarmed armed force, this psychopathic terrorist, Nidal Hasan, systematically and methodically executed soldier after soldier before the local police could arrive on the scene. If we didn't have “Gun Free Zones” and our armed forces were armed, Nadir Hasan would have met bullets instead of bodies. He would have been dead instead of the brave soldiers that are.

The Eleventh Hour

On the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month of 1918, the terrible killing of the First World War came to a formal end. The day we now observe as Veterans Day is the official holiday, growing to honor all of America's veterans at the urging of a shoe store owner in Kansas, in the early Fifties. Over the century since a Serbian assassin's bullet ignited a global conflagration that blasted and burned fifteen million casualties, the West has learned it is very good at war, but still having trouble dealing with peace. One of the reasons is that we often forget to render proper honor and respect to our soldiers.
American soldiers are not just the guardians of peace… they are its builders. They build it with the unseen, too small to see bricks of bloodshed, that did not occur, because the murderers were wisely afraid of tangling with them. They add the countless acts of kindness and mercy, performed in war zones and disaster areas. The elites of the Third World learn about America by watching the news reports. Many of their people see their first American flag riding on the shoulder of a uniformed man or woman carrying relief supplies, or a medical kit. Some of those poor people have taken bullets from their countrymen, and have been dragged to safety by United States soldiers who don't hesitate to do the right thing, even when that American flag becomes a target. No wonder most of the people of this world generally like us more than their select few.

It is possible to achieve the peace that pacifists dream of, through disarmament and surrender. This is the peace of defeat, the peace of the grave. It secures the comfort of the select few, by allowing aggressors to make endless war on their citizens. It is a peace that burns hot and bad in the insides of a nation, leaving it unable to meet the stare of those it deserted to tyranny. Soldiers are the only reason you can have peace and freedom. It is by their blood and honor that we are a free nation.

On the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of 2009, the wounded of Fort Hood will remember their fallen friends, and wonder how a man wrapped in enough red flags to turn him into a bloody mummy was allowed to gain access to their base. Those wounded and dead rely upon us to ask the questions their superiors in the chain of command cannot comfortably answer and most likely will not answer. Calling the injured and dead of Fort Hood "victims" bring about the blindness that forced those men and women to face the enemy unarmed. They are not victims, they are casualties of war, and, Sergeant Kimberly Munley, who took the cowardly attacker down, is a veteran today. She has now been through the fire.

The terrorist enemy doesn't have a formal chain of command that can sign an armistice, they don't muster on clearly defined battlefields, and they're quite happy to benefit from the efforts of deranged people who will blow their self up for seventy two virgins in the name of Allah. If we don't stand behind our professional soldiers, and give them the tools to do their jobs now, we will all become soldiers before this enemy is defeated if we have any guns left in our homes. We will be fighting them on our streets every day just like Israel does today.

Somewhere in the world today, an American soldier will ring in the eleventh hour of the eleventh day with gunfire. Another will arrive home after an honorable tour of duty, perhaps passing brothers and sisters in arms saying farewell to their families. A mother's tears will fall on a letter from the far side of the world. Old veterans will spend a beautiful afternoon watching children play beneath the flag they raised at Anzio, Guadalcanal, Inchon, or Khe Sanh. Young veterans will put their lives on the line, to give the children of Iraq and Afghanistan a chance at a future free from murderous evil. A little girl will playfully salute a uniform she will one day grow up to wear. A pilot will land a machine that was impossible in his grandfather's day on the heaving deck of an aircraft carrier. The USS New York will be at anchor close to the site of the fallen buildings whose bones became her steel.

And because of "political correctness" we will be fighting these people on our streets every day in the very near future. We as Americans must wake up to the fact of who we are fighting. We now have a president that does not want these people to be called terrorist. What do you call them?

Anything For A Vote

The nation's unemployment now is now over 10.2 percent. Some economist, in the know, say it is really over 17 percent if you count all the people who have just stopped looking for work and It may go beyond 20 percent by next year. In many western states, such as California, the jobless rate may climb even higher. The old notion that "illegal immigrants just pick the lettuce that Americans refuse to" will not cut it anymore. In fact, today less than one out of 20 illegal aliens currently do farm labor. Most are engaged in construction as carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and other trades, or the service industry, or are homemakers with childcare responsibilities. While plenty of unemployed American citizens may still not yet wish to pick oranges, the jobless might consider taking jobs like hammering nails or working in restaurants and these jobs are being taking over more and more by illegal immigrants who are still coming by the thousands. Many states are broke. Taxes are rising. The public is questioning all sorts of government entitlement expenditures. In California, the latest budget crisis saw a $26 billion shortfall -- at a time when some studies put the state's net health, housing, education and criminal justice costs for some 3 million illegal aliens at over $10 billion a year. How will this country ever get back on its feet allowing that to happen? We have people losing their homes, living in tents, cars, with no jobs, no way of supporting their self (I’m talking about the people who really want to work) and we still have a large illegal immigration problem. Does this make any sense. Does the politicians need the illegal votes that bad to turn their back on the American Worker.
Even though the economy and job market is very bad the illegal aliens who receive government help somehow can send money back home to Mexico. Why is that? Of the 11-12 million illegal aliens believed to be residing in the United States, well over half are thought to be Mexican nationals. Each alien on average may send back perhaps about $3,000-4,000 per year to Mexico -- making their combined total of $25 billion in remittances a major source of Mexico's national income. So the money sent south may be near much of the cost of the taxpayer providing support for the nation's resident illegal population in the first place. Are the politicians missing something here or are their eyes turned the other way for the votes the illegals bring with them.
Americans have never minded helping the poor in their midst, even during hard times. But it's fair for us to wonder whether our own rising taxes go in part to pay for those who are subsidizing the Mexican government's inability or unwillingness to provide basic care for its own citizens. Mexico is a crooked country with crooked people running it. It always has been crooked down through its history and what is the difference now?
Finally, Mexico has seen the worst increase in of drug violence in its recent history --threatening to reduce the government to the status like Colombia in the 1980s. Over 7,000 Mexican citizens have been killed in gun battles so far this year between government security forces and the drug cartels. Who wants that violence to keep spilling over into major U.S. cities like Phoenix and Los Angeles? When will this government do something about the problem? Instead of doing something about the problem this present administration thinks that we are part of the problem. Instead of tighter border control to curb these illegal activities the government wants tighter gun control in this country to stop the violence. Close the borders and the violence, for the most part, will stop. Sometimes we must wonder if these congressmen and senators have a lick of sense.
Obama is between a rock and a hard place -- under biased political pressure by his own party to go further than any past government in easing immigration enforcement while the wider public increasingly wants the border strictly enforced and illegal immigration ended. Polls of all sorts reveal consistently that the public believes illegal immigration is a serious problem and that government is not doing enough to stop it. Why is not the government hearing this? Apparently a hesitant Obama hopes that the crisis over illegal immigration will just go away on its own -- despite his now forgotten April vow to enact "comprehensive immigration reform." When will Obama stop this flood of illegals? Or will he take a stance like his positions on the need for more troops in Afghanistan, and the nuclear crisis with Iran ? Obama is voting "present" on illegal immigration and that is not helping the American worker who is out of a job and it is not helping the crime that is getting out of hand on our borders and spreading buy Mexican gangs all over our nation.

Terrorism Or A Tragic Shooting

This week, we as Americans, have witnessed one of the of the deadliest mass shootings on a U.S. base in the history of this country. This shooting rampage at Fort Hood that killed thirteen people and wounded, as many as 38 this week has sparkle a question among many Americans if this act of violence was an act of terrorism. Most Americans all ready know that it was an act of terrorism, even the ones who deny the shootings because they want to be “politically correct” in their heart of hearts know that it was an act of terrorism, plain and simple. It was not done by a mentally disturbed person. It was done by a man who was indoctrinated with jihad. We all must realize that. Thirteen people were killed (slaughtered) by an act of jihad which we will never hear the White house say.
The gunman, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who was a Palestinian-American and an Army psychiatrist, reportedly shouted "Allahu Akbar!”( As we all know that is Arabic for "god is great!") when he opened fire. That tells us something right there! The military said he was scheduled to deploy to Afghanistan, and family members said he was trying to avoid serving overseas. The government has said that it was not a terrorist attack, but they have not ruled out terrorism in the shooting, but they said the preliminary evidence suggests that it wasn't. Clearly I think it was a terrorist act. Whether he was connected to another group or not makes no difference. It has been very clear and out in the open for years that two of the places for Al Qaeda and other Islamic groups to recruitment were in the U.S. military and in the U.S. prison system. Walid Phares, an expert on terrorism and a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, called the shooting "the largest single terror act in America since 9/11." You will never hear those words come from the Obama White House. I’m thankful that we have a man like Walid Phares that is not “political correct” and will tell it like it is!
"What happened at Ft. Hood is not about being frustrated by America's foreign policy or exacting revenge for racial slurs. Nor is it about simply being a Muslim-American serving in the military or about being a member of any faith," "The murders at Ft. Hood are about the radicalization of folks by an extremist ideology and a set of beliefs and philosophy called jihadism, which feed these acts of terror. "The main question we should be asking is when did Hasan become indoctrinated and programmed to do what he did? Everything else will fall in place once we have these answers. This not the only terrorist acts that may be in the making as we will see. The shooting will never be ruled an act of terrorism because the Obama administration has made a political calculation to not fight a war on terror. When Obama decided to use "Overseas Contingency Operation" for the "global war on terror he left out the option to call the deadly act what it was. An act of terrorism against this country.
"Had this occurred under the previous administration or any other previous administration, the natural position would have been America is under attack. It would have been a different position than what Obama coins. Now because a strategic decision has been made to disengage the enemy, They're not going to call this act , at Fort Hood, terrorism. Law enforcement officials and the Army have been unwilling and reluctant to rule the shooting an act of terrorism because "they're politically correct." But most Americans know the shooter's motive is clear: it was violent jihad in the name of radical Islam. America needs to awaken from its sleep and its unwillingness to face the issue of fundamentalist Islam in our midst, which is without a shadow of a doubt is the cause of the tragedy in Fort Hood. Some very serious decisions need to be made when it comes to having Muslims protecting our country, as it is impossible to know whether they may be good Americans or foxes in the hen house."
Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan was a very devout and dedicated Muslim, and his impending deployment overseas, which was imminent, was going to put him in a position where he was going to be assisting in killing other Muslims And that's a very big thing for a Muslim to do, not only killing another Muslim but killing on behalf of an infidel or a Christian." We, as Americans must face up to the fact that this was another act of terrorism, just like 911 against our country. We must also face the fact that these acts of terror will continue as long as we have leaders who will not call it what it is: “TERRORISM”

POLITICIANS - and deadbeats

I’m sure that this article will not set well with some but the more I think about what is happening in this country the more I've had it with some of people in this country, and even more so with the politicians who enable them and who know better, but whose desire, lust and thirst for power surpasses and go beyond anything comparable to common decency. It's time for a reality check, for the truth and here it is: this is one American whose sick and tired of subsidizing (support financially by my tax dollars) people who are too  lazy to take care of themselves, and who expect and wait for other people to pick up the tab. People who would not work in a pie shop eating pies. Spare me excuses. I don't want to hear about "social justice," "victimization," discrimination,” or " unfair treatment " when they are nothing more than excuses that allow some people to live in this country on the back of working Americans while contributing practically nothing towards their own upkeep. There's a huge difference between the truly helpless and the truly lazy deadbeats, and I've had it with the politicians who make little or no distinction between the two groups. I don't care what these political prostitutes, who sell their selves, to get elected say or tell you, there's no such thing as "free" anything. There is nothing that is on the house and the fact that some think there is or  don't give a darn because they are not paying for it, is a demonstration and verification to both their deceit and their lack of honesty. But then the deadbeats already know that and they are OK with it, as long as the government program or policy keeps delivering the goods and the check. The elected officials are okay with it as long as they get the deadbeats votes. This is not helping the people who truly need help. That is giving the ones that truly need help less.  Now we have a government who wants to spread the wealth around. These means, in no uncertain terms, that more will be put on the backs of working Americans to dole out for people who can make a buck or two their own selves but would rather have it handed over to them.
There was a time in this country when most people were ashamed to go on the dole and ask for any kind of government help, except as a last resort. There was also a time when most people accepted responsibility and blame for their own behavior, or felt bad doing something wrong when they knew it was wrong. But that was before secular "progressives" made it fashionable to believe religion-based moral codes were " out-of-date, not for today'" and that everyone was entitled to modify and custom fit their morality, their principles, their ethics and decency in accordance with "personal preferences." Where has the integrity, honor, and veracity of some people gone? Once such moral uncertainty gathered momentum, the legal profession and the therapeutic community were more than willing to jump on the bandwagon. For the former, "right and wrong" became "legal and illegal." For the latter, "well and unwell." Shame? Dead as the proverbial doornail. Its replacement? Self-rationalization and excuse-making.

Who do these people think they are kidding? Not the American people who bust their butts every day to make ends meet. Not the people who try to do the right thing, just because it's right. A lot of them have been beaten into submission by our political class and some of our elected officials  for whom nothing is more important than making decent people feel bad for not being "compassionate" enough. Well no more. I'm calling them out. All these politicians know the road to permanent and unending power is paved by buying the dead beats off. They are nothing more than blood-suckers, and it's long past time someone told them so. What good are they really doing our Country? I’m afraid more harm than good!
All the decent working Americans who have been carrying the deadbeats for decades has had enough. Their self-righteous indignation and resentment is wearing exceedingly thin, and you may have noticed that the decent, law-abiding, hard-working Americans that are still the majority of people in this country are beginning to wake up. These are the very same folks who bend over backwards, time and time again, to help people in need and will still help the people who are, truly, in need but you deadbeats will have to do the same as all the rest of us do – WORK!

A GERMAN'S VIEW ON ISLAM - a must read

A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned

a number of large industries and estates.   When asked how many German

people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can show what our attitude, as

Americans, should be toward fanaticism.

"Very few people were true Nazis," he said, "but many enjoyed the

return of German pride, and many more were too busy to care. I was one

of those who just thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools. So, the

majority just sat back and let it all happen. Soon they not only controlled us, they

also owned us. Our banks, what was taught in schools, our businesses, our government, our hospitals,

They controlled every part of our life.”

Then, before we knew it, they owned everything we had, and we owned nothing. We had lost control, and

the end of the world had come. My family lost everything. I ended up in

a concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my factories." It was almost like

being told when to get up and when to go to bed, like you were a child. We were

not allowed to own firearms, Nazis’ controlled the doctors, hospitals, news papers, and

all businesses. They controlled every part of our lives.

We are told again and again by "experts" and "talking heads" that Islam

is the religion of peace, and that the vast majority of Muslims just

want to live in peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be true,

it is entirely irrelevant to what is happening in the world today. It is worthless and

hollow talk , meant to make us feel better, and meant to

somehow diminish our worries about the band of fanatics rampaging across the world in

the name of Islam. It is called being deceived!

The true fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment in history. It

is the fanatics who march. It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50

shooting wars worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically and methodically

slaughter Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are

gradually taking over the entire continent in an Islamic wave. It is

the fanatics who bomb, behead, murder or honor-kill. It is the fanatics

who take over mosque after mosque. It is the fanatics who zealously

spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and homosexuals. It is

the fanatics who teach their young to kill and to become suicide bombers.

The hard quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the "silent

majority," is cowed, intimidated, scared, or else  unconnected to the

problem. They think that it is not pertinent to them. How foolish.

Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in

peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of

about 20 million people. The peaceful majority was irrelevant. China's huge

 population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists managed to kill a

staggering 70 million people. The average Japanese individual prior to World

War II was not a warmongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered

its way across South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included the systematic

murder of 12 million Chinese civilians; most killed by sword, shovel

and bayonet. And who can forget Rwanda, which collapsed into butchery. Could

 it not be said that the majority of Rwandans were "peace loving"?

History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our

powers of reason, we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of

points: Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant and neither here nor there

by their silence. Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't speak

up, because like my friend from Germany, they will awaken one day and

find that the fanatics own them, and the end of their world will have

begun.

Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs,

Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians and many

others have died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until

it was too late. Are you getting the point. As for us who watch it all unfold,

 we must pay attention to the only group that counts: the fanatics who threaten

 our way of life.

Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is not real is contributing to the passiveness

that allows the problems to expand. So, extend yourself a bit and reach out to all

 free people before it is too late. Send this on and on and on! Let us hope that thousands,

worldwide, will stand up and not be silent before it's too late.

And remember, the first thing the fanatics will do to the silent

majority is to disarm them.

The Gangs of Salisbury

I just read the article in the Salisbury Times about their Gang problem. It was a very interesting article. Even though it was a very good and well written article she is behind times, because so many people in the Salisbury area have been commenting on this very subject in the paper for years. That is the way it is, the voice of the common folks are mostly never heard. It is a shame when gangs (who you know are armed) roam Salisbury and honest people have no way of defending their self because of federal and state gun control laws that are really worthless. Honest people are at the mercy of the bad guy and guess what, the bad guy knows this. The problem of gun control and gangs, home invasions, murder, and robbery will soon get much worse. The lawless people will have guns and the honest people will have none. You cannot count on the police because even though they do a good job this problem will soon over whelm them. They are only so many police officers. How are we to defend ourselves? The honest citizen will soon not be allowed to own a firearm, if Obama and Holder get their way, let alone be allowed to carry one. In some towns and states in this country it is legal to carry fire arms and in those states crime is way down. I wonder why. We do not need such as in the old wild west days but we do need to be safe in our homes and walking down the street. What good is the courts? 80% of the time they slap the criminals on the wrist instead of bringing the full weight of the law down on then.

The real news is that as the things in this world get worse, so will the gangs. You may laugh but the problems of this world have steadily got worse. There are parts of certain cities, across this nation, that police will not even go unless they go in force. Who is protecting the citizen in these areas? And now we have a federal government who wants to dismantle our country piece by piece. The gang problem, in Salisbury or anywhere else in this country, will not get any better until the borders are sealed and the flow of illegal people are stopped. We do not need to stop Mexico's drug war for them. We have our own problems and Mexico is the cause of a lot of them. We can blame the gang problem on whatever we want but it will not get any better until the citizens unite and demand a change. Not Obama's kind of change, but a change of our values and how things are done to keep the honest person safe. Everything is done for the criminal in this country and the honest man is screwed most of the time. Until we change the soft laws we have on crime and do away with gun control laws, that are useless, these problems will not stop but get worse. You may say the courts are overcrowded and they are, but why? They are overcrowded because of so many repeat offenders who will break the law over and over again because they know for the most part our court systems are a joke. For the most part it is not the judges and court officials but it is the rules and guidelines that they have to go by. These guide lines are made up and passed by people that we have elected to government. These people not only tie your hands they even tie the hands of law enforcement with some of their silly laws.

I do not want to sound like a prophet of doom and gloom, but we have not seen nothing yet. As if the crimes in this country are not getting worse we have a federal government that wants to give the enemy terrorist their rights when they are captured. How stupid! Who knows what laws that are in effect that would land you in jail for shooting someone who breaks into your home. We have some twisted laws that are just plain out and out foolish. I live in the country and anytime that I have called the police their response time has always been at least fifteen minutes. By that time a person could be seriously hurt or killed by a intruder. It is not the police officers fault there is only so many of them to cover a large area. So the question is do you just stand there and let the intruder do what they want or run to another room until the police come,  as most of the government law makers will tell you to do, or do you defend and protect yourself? If someone tries to break in my house, if Bruce (my dog) does not get them my shotgun will. Let me give you a short story, that I once read over the internet, and you tell me which one you are!

 Picture yourself walking down the street with your family one night and a terrorist or a gang member came out of the shadows with intentions to rob you and do you and your family bodily harm. Which of the following three are you? (1) A LIBERAL sees the bad guy coming with his weapon drawn and he begins to question himself if there is enough lighting in the area, is there some way that I could reason with him, we need new gun laws, maybe if we run some of us could get away, do I have time to call the police? (2) A CONSERVATIVE sees the bad guy coming and he pulls out a handgun and starts to think, will I get in trouble if I shoot him, if I go to jail, for shooting this bad guy, will my family be okay? Who will take care of them with me in jail?(3) THE ONE THAT CLING TO HIS BIBLE AND GUNS sees the guy coming pulls out his Glock 45 and then you hear BANG! BANG! BANG! over and over again, then a empty clip hitting the ground. The family is safe and wait for the police to arrive. No more bad guy.

Sad to say some reading this will say that that is a dangerous and bad story but I would say this to you: In times past when most people, in this country, were like the number three guy in the above story there was a lot less crime in this country and it was basically safe to walk our streets. As this nation gets more and more violent all Americans need to know how to protect their self. Let the empty clip fall to the ground instead of you. Let the criminal know and understand that crime never pays and let him know that you will defend you and your family.
