Tennessee Lt. Gov. to Christians: Buy Guns (A politician who gets it!)
Breitbart ^

Posted on 10/03/2015 10:19:25 AM PDT by Red in Blue PA

On Friday, in response to the shooting at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon in which Christians were targeted and murdered, Tennessee Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey minced no words in his concise message to Christians and those who believe in the values of Western Civilization: buy guns.

Ramsey issued his statement on Facebook, linking it to aNew York Post article headlined, “Oregon gunman singled out Christians during rampage.” Ramsey pointed out other recent mass shootings as he posited that the targets were the same: Christians and defenders of the West. His post read:

As I scroll through the news this morning I am saddened to read the details of the horrible tragedy in Oregon. My heart goes out to the citizens of Roseburg — especially the families and loved ones of those murdered.

The recent spike in mass shootings across the nation is truly troubling. Whether the perpetrators are motivated by aggressive secularism, jihadist extremism or racial supremacy, their targets remain the same: Christians and defenders of the West.

While this is not the time for widespread panic, it is a time to prepare. I would encourage my fellow Christians who are serious about their faith to think about getting a handgun carry permit. I have always believed that it is better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it.

Our enemies are armed. We must do likewise.

I'd vote for that one in a New York minute! But here in New Jersey a permit to carry is nearly unobtainable, since they require the you "prove a need" and the proof is never enough. Except for the "connected", that is.

And any permit requirement is a violation of "shall not be infringed" anyway!

Don’t just BUY guns, get plenty of ammo, learn how to use those guns and most importantly CARRY THOSE GUNS, legally of course.

“Our enemies are armed. We must do likewise.”

What more needs to be said?

My question to Lt Gov Ramsey is why are you allowing Islam to be taught in the TN school system and why are you allowing the schools to force the students to recite the Shahada? Getting a gun is a good idea. Getting rid of Islam is even better.

From what I know about Tennessee, they are gun friendly almost as much as Texans.

But they are a peaceful and honest people by and large.

EFFECT OF ISLAM ON GERMANY

At risk of being tagged a one trick pony, I submit for your consideration a 30 minute video dealing with the impact of virtually unrestrained muslim immigration on Germany. It’s in German with subtitles so you’ll need to give it your full attention.  In it you’ll see what happens to the culture of a nation when the formerly relatively homogeneous population and their leaders fail to REQUIRE that immigrants —  even those who speak the language — ASSIMILATE at a deeper CULTURAL LEVEL.

The destructive process is called “balkanization” (a pejorative geopolitical term, originally used to describe the process of fragmentation or division of a region or state into smaller regions or states that are often hostile or uncooperative with one another) and it is often employed by power-seeking would-be tyrants to pit various groups against one another to obtain and maintain control.

In this video, as in the earlier video of Angela Merkel announcing the suicide of Germany, the issue will be raised that their culture is declining due to a decline in the SPIRITUAL and MORAL principles once valued by a majority of the indigenous population, making the tolerance of the alien values acceptable.  That’s a topic that needs earnest and exhaustive discussion in every Western nation being invaded by islam — INCLUDING AMERICA!

As you watch this, be certain you understand that this is happening all over Europe.  For geographic reasons, they’re just a few years ahead of us.  THIS WILL BE AMERICA VERY SOON!

I don’t mean to gloat, but getting a gun permit in Pennsylvania, outside of the big cities, is pretty easy, but our new Governor Wolfie will be trying to change that.

Things would have turned out a lot different if the first student he asked their religion had replied, “None of your business” and blown him away.

Just about everyone I know in Tn has a concealed carry permit. Even the lady that cuts my hair was proud of her gun permit!
