N.Y. attack underscores need to preserve gun rights

With Islamic State-inspired animals bringing their holy war to our cities – ramming trucks into pedestrians and bicyclists and slaughtering dozens in a nightclub and elsewhere – we are reminded of how important it is to protect our right to bear arms, which is enshrined in the Second Amendment.

If it weren’t for the hero cop who happened to be at the horrific scene and shot the Islamic extremist killer inflicting mayhem on New York’s West Side Highway – just blocks away from a high school – more innocents could have been harmed, including children.

We know that law enforcement officers, as courageous as they are, can’t be everywhere, which means Americans must be prepared to protect themselves and those around them in the event of another deadly attack. That could be coming – at any time – as Islamic radicals have called for soldiers of the caliphate to hit soft targets in the West. This includes knife, car and truck attacks and train derailments, as well as going after schoolchildren playing in parks or at sporting events. The Islamic State group has also called for Christians to be killed in their places of worship and military personnel to be butchered in their homes.

This is not a fictional horror movie.

It’s jihadi marching orders published openly in the Islamic State’s and al-Qaida’s propaganda magazines for all to see.

Seems like some regular citizens in Texas, at the very minimum, aided in ending the killing yesterday. Perhaps an armed citizen in NY could have saved a few lives on the bike path. But, training is a must and looking at the pols in NY, good luck until you vote out assclowns that don't value your life. This article probably won't be real popular with the antis today. TFB!

Yeah, pretty sure this is all intended to force us into gun control.

It’s forcing us into the gun stores and Wal-Mart ammo aisles is what it is doing.

"...Muslim terrorist attack on NYC bike path..."

Were I in that Lower Manhattan situation, and lawfully armed, it would remain concealed unless the Muslim threat was specific to me and my family.
Way too many gung-ho government automatons there who would be shooting at anything and everything without evaluating the good people from the bad people.

Precious little exists in NY to be preserved.Need to re-establish.

Yup. It’s an iffy circumstance.

Stop calling it the left’s term, “Gun Control”.
It’s “Preparation for Gun Confiscation”.

A woman that i worked with, her husband took the picture of this scumbag muzzie that was on the cover of the ny post. He witnessed the whole attack while he was walking down there.
