Obama’s Biggest Mistake Will Be Underestimating The Power Of We the People
Abosolute Rights.com ^ | 12/3/15 | MIKE LAVERY

Posted on 12/03/2015 8:54:27 PM PST by Amntn

I sit here today and, for the first time in my life it seems...I'm speechless. And it's not speechless because I have nothing to say. It's because I have so, so much on my mind, I cannot find the right words to start with.

So let me try this.

I live in California-San Fernando Valley to be exact-with my family. It's about 60 miles West of San Bernardino, the scene of yesterday's mass shooting where 14 people died and 17 were wounded. Only 60 miles away. It's not New York, not Texas, not Paris, not Lebanon, not London. It was on my doorstep. It was on the doorstep of millions of Californians who woke up thinking the exact same thing as I did as I dropped my son off at daycare. It was just another day. How wrong we were.

Something we take pride in here at Absolute Rights is to report the facts as and when we get them. If news breaks, we report it. If they are unconfirmed reports, we'll say that and update as and when it's confirmed (or not if the case may be). Yesterday, the media did a stellar job reporting the facts as active shooters unleashed terror, in Southern California. Thanks to the power of social media and the 24/7 news reporting this day and age, we sometimes get the story before the police get to the scene. This was apparent yesterday. It's also thanks the power of social media where, deep in the bowels of the Internet, around 100,000 people were listening into the police scanner and reporting minute by minute updates.

Let me tell you what you may not know. We (the media) knew the shooters were Muslim from around 1pm. We knew Syed Farook was the main suspect. We knew that the international press named him and called the shootings a "terrorist attack." We knew there was a woman involved by around 3pm. We knew that the authorities knew this too. We knew there were an unknown number of explosives at one or more locations. We also knew that this was, most likely, going to point towards a terrorist attack. We also knew that, if the media knew, then President Barack Obama knew this. So why, a day later, are we still skipping around calling it EXACTLY what this was? Why, a day later, are the authorities not taking all the evidence they have so far and admitting that this is a terrorist attack? Because make no mistake about it. They know what this was. They just won't admit that the enemy is here and the war has begun.

The bullet riddled car where shooter Syed Farook died along with a female associate. We live in the greatest country in the world. The land of the free and home of the brave. A country where the most well-known law enforcement agencies in the world work tirelessly to protect the law abiding citizens. A nation filled with patriots who would, quite literally, die to protect their families, their homes and the soil they stand on. This is the United States of America. So can you tell me why our FBI, our police force and our government are looking like a bunch of inept fools just now? Can you please explain to me why not one of them seems to know ANYTHING about this coordinated attack by three heavily armed Muslims wearing body armor? Anyone? Let me help. It's because they are not allowed. Why? Simple...President Barack Obama.

Our Commander In Chief will not tell the nation what we all know because this is his worst nightmare coming true. Everything he has done during his time in the white house has been fine tuned to suit his needs and agenda. By using the left leaning media, he's managed to control what we read, what we see and what we hear. This is the man who, when Nidal Hasan murdered 13 people and injured more than 30 others at Fort Hood, Texas while shouting 'Allahu Akbar' as he opened fire, called it "work place violence." This is the man who has yet to attach the word "Islamic" to any jihadi terror attack. This is the man who wants to bring 20,000 Syrian refugees into the U.S. even when his closest allies and White House confidants strongly advised him not to. This is the man who, only last week, told us there are no known threats to our nation and it's citizens. This is the man who thinks our greatest threat is Climate Change. And this is the man who, even when all roads seem to point to a Jihadi Terror Attack where 14 American's were cut down where they stood and now lie in a morgue, pushes gun control during a time when EVERY AMERICAN SHOULD BE ARMED to protect themselves and their family.

Our President. Barack Hussain Obama. The man who ripped our nation apart from the very foundations Americans spilled blood to build had his world rocked yesterday. This is the one situation when good Americans unite. This is when our patriotism shines. No matter what your color may be or what your political standing is, when our loved ones are put in danger from an enemy with deep hatred for everything we stand for, we stand tall. And when that enemy, who are so savage, so unforgiving and so brutal that they will die for their cause are integrated in our society and can strike at anytime, every one of us will want to use our 2nd Amendment rights to protect ourselves and our loved ones.

And if our president thinks he can take away our right to protect our families at the time when we need our guns the most, he will find out the power of We the People and his days in the Oval Office will be over!

Real Americans are saying “enough is enough.” This is “not who we are.” It’s time to impeach the bastard (literally speaking).

“We the people” elected Obama twice. Amnesty. Refugees.
Obama is trying to alter the composition of our nation. Forever.

God help us.

We sure showed them jihadists after 9/11, didn’t we? How come they’re continuing the assaults on Americans? We thought electing a Muslim to the presidency would satisfy them. Hah.

The GOOD NEWS is that America CAN BE TAKEN BACK and REBULT.

This too will pass.

We need to have common sense control. We need to control those we put on the arbitrary no flies list. We’ll put Lois Learner in charge of this list.

If you’ve done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear.

Screw that. Carry two or three extra mags today.

What the hell’s 48 rounds when you’re up against some raghead with an AK?

Punch through.

Correct! We can take it back and we can rebuild it.

I know two presidential candidates, and many more behind them, that will lead the way.

A well written article. Check the comment from 'Joe Krozac':

There is one thing everyone can do, beginning with AbsoluteRights.Com:

STOP referring to Obama as "President Obama" !!! - STOP addressing him with a title that he is morally, and probably legally NOT entitled to! Referring to him as "President" demeans the office where far greater men have served, where REAL Americans have served, not this Kenyan usurper who is a traitor by nearly any definition. He works night and day to undermine and sabotage the Constitution of the United States, violating it with impunity, he is the personification of what was once called "the enemy within" by the late Senator Joe McCarthy in the 1950's, and while McCarthy was speaking of Communist subversion of our federal government, he could just as well have been speaking of this latter day OBAMUNIST menace which should be our sworn enemy, of "We The People of the United States". We don't have a 'president', we have an illicit and illegal dictator which was installed right under our noses.

As for this Islamic terrorist threat which has infiltrated and continues to invade our Nation, if there was ever a time that the Second Amendment must be upheld, yea - ENHANCED, by arming all responsible American citizens, that time is now.

The fascist regime in Washington will do anything possible to strip the American people of their Constitutional right to defend themselves, which means that the battle to preserve our Constitution BEGINNING with the Second Amendment must fall to the States and local counties and municipalities. Do you have guns? BUY MORE AMMO. Do you have ammo? BUY MORE GUNS and do it now, in the dwindling time we have left. The jihadist threat, empowered and enabled by the traitors in Washington, are arrayed among us here at home. We either defend our Nation, our families and ourselves using the Constitutional tools we have been given, or we run up the white flag now, and surrender to our impending Islamic masters.

Sic Semper Tyrannis!!


Joe Krozac sounds like a FReeper to me.
