It’s good that Cruz can put on his professor hat and give a cogent lecture on our rights. This will help millions of Americans to get reacquainted with their God-given liberties, while at the same time washing away the communist hope and change garbage from President Buckwheat.

Every Man Should Have a Rifle

-Henry Lawson

SO I SIT and write and ponder, while the house is deaf and dumb,
Seeing visions “over yonder” of the war I know must come.
In the corner—not a vision—but a sign for coming days,
Stand a box of ammunition and a rifle in green baize.
And in this, the living present, let the word go through the land,
Every tradesman, clerk and peasant should have these two things at hand.
No—no ranting song is needed, and no meeting, flag or fuss
In the future, still unheeded, shall the spirit come to us!
Without feathers, drum or riot, on the day that is to be,
We shall march down, very quiet, to our stations by the sea.
While the bitter parties stifle every voice that warns of war,
Every man should own a rifle and have cartridges in store!

Another point about Ted Cruz: he’s the one candidate that I trust to have the courage to go after the vote fraud problem and try to do something about it.

Yep, there are some concepts that the left has successfully silenced by ostracizing those who dare speak them.

Another concept that Cruz needs to put forth loud and proud is that anything the government does, it does with the inherent threat of deadly violence if you don’t comply. And anyone that wants the gov’t to “do something” is inherently authorizing that use of deadly force and needs to own up to their own culpability in that authorization.

Why is it necessary to constantly attack Rand Paul? Paul is one of the three most conservatives in the US Senate along with Mike Lee and Ted Cruz. You are not doing Cruz any favors by bad mouthing other good conservatives. All you are doing is forming a circular firing squad. You are turning off lots of potential Cruz voters by going all negative on Paul instead of going positive on Cruz.

The reason I like Cruz and support Cruz is because I trust him to form a consistent, principle position based on his knowledge of our history and our Constitutional governance. I like Paul too, but I think Cruz has a better grasp Constitutional law and G*d law. Paul tends to go wobbly at times, Cruz rarely does.

Rand Paul ? Conservative ?

Many issues and views that Rand Paul has many conservatives do not agree with Rand Paul.

Since 2008 I have lost over 10,000 rounds of .223 and a CAR-15. Just can’t seem to put my finger on it.

And he can explain our gun rights without being defense about them or seeing room for loopholes and erosion.

I had to look it up. I don’t know anything about metals. Is he using it in the sense that a palladium can be used as a catalyst?

Understand one thing and understand it CLEARLY Americans. When your guns are gone, so is your FREEDOM. The Japanese knew way back in 1941 that behind nearly every tree in America stood an man holding a gun. They KNEW we were armed. They knew even with an invasion of America, guns would be there to shoot their soldiers from behind those trees. When the guns are gone, you are no longer free. You are now a prisoner of the controlling government. Your freedom gone. YOU are the prisoner. YOU will answer to said government. YOU are jailed without any charge, lawyer, and held as long as they want to hold you. You can disappear and no answers will be given. Think Nazi Germany. Think what they did with people who did not follow what THEY demanded. Think concentration camps. Think deaths with no explanations. Think One World Government. Keep your weapons. If you have purchased a weapon, KNOW that they have a record of it and when they come for your weapons, they will know what you have and by serial number. The way to protect yourself, is to purchase weapons from another seller that does not require you to have all those government documents filled out. By it “second hand” and you can hide that one away and they do not know you have it. Then at least you have something to protect yourself and your family. You hide it somewhere where they do not find it when the knock on the door comes. Your freedoms are leaving folks. The gov’mint is taking more and more control. It will be controlled by all that free money and stuff the gov’mint gives you. You no turn in your guns, you no get free gov’mint money. They take away until you turn them in. By having everyone on a controlled payroll, the gov’mint controls, you, me, everyone. Prepare. Stay prepared. But, above all, KNOW and FOLLOW the ONLY WAY OUT of this mess, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!! When He comes for His Bride, then and only then do YOU WIN!!!! I have read the end, the last verses of the last chapter of Revelation. Guess what??? WE WIN!!! Through HIM!!!

Used in this context, palladium refers to a safeguard of our liberties (Item 2 below).

Palladium

[puh-ley-dee-uh m]

noun, plural Palladia [puh-ley-dee-uh]

1. Also, Palladion [puh-ley-dee-on] a statue of Athena, especially one on the citadel of Troy on which the safety of the city was supposed to depend.

2. (usually lowercase) anything believed to provide protection or safety; safeguard.
