At a public hearing on proposed gun control legislation, Manuel Martinez, a man who escaped Cuba in 1962 after opposing Fidel Castro and being imprisoned for it, blasts Oregon gun control lawmakers in an impassioned speech that only someone that has lived through communism and Marxism, only someone that watched innocent men, women and children murdered by their own government, only someone that fought against his whole country being enslaved by a dictator, can give.
They come here in those dog and pony show and cry that their going to protect people. Youre going to protect nobody! I want to know what is behind it? Do you know what is behind the problem we have in this country with its Marxism, Martinez said.
He continues, saying Marxism is not coming, Marxism is here! Marxism has been in this country for quite a while now. And the politicians allow that because they are ignorant or theyre part of the plot!
Dont sell me this. A very powerful man tried to sell me this 50-something years ago, I didnt buy it, do you think I am going to buy it now after pushing 80 years? Martinez said. This is Marxism, plain and clear.
They put this dog and pony show saying hey, we are going to protect you. No, what they did was enslave a country, Martinez said. They destroyed a country the same way that this country is going to be destroyed if we continue in this fashion. This is what youre selling here! Martinez said, holding up old communist magazines from Cuba and stating This is what you selling here!! You are not selling protection! You dont care about if we die or live! THIS IS WHAT YOURE SELLING!!!

Manuel Martinez, Fled Cuba. DESTROYS Oregon Lawmakers Gun Control Attempt

Oregon ping
Yup. My in-laws got out of Cuba. My Father in-law told me before the ‘08 election that he had seen this before and foretold all that has happened in the last 5 years.
A few years ago, I was talking to a doctor that fled from Cuba. He said that 0bama was exactly like a younger Castro in how he seemed to ‘captivate’ his followers with charisma and lofty speeches. He said it was almost like seeing a ghost.
Manuel Martinez for governor!
The response of the lefties is quite predictable. They can’t argue with him, so they’ll just ignore him.
MOLON LABE!!

Thanks Whenifhow.
Their experiences should be carried on by future generations. I hope you have many children that spend many hours listening to their grandparents wisdom.
Wow! And we need an immigrant to remind us...
Manuel Martinez is what true “PATRIOTISM” is all about. He has seen with his own eyes and recognizes from experience what is happening to our country right now.
We must listen to his words and his temper or we lose what he lost long ago!
The time for speeches is almost done.
Wow!
I have heard similar stories from people I know who had relatives escape Veneualeza.
BRAVO, Mr. Martinez!!!
“Yup. My in-laws got out of Cuba. My Father in-law told me before the 08 election that he had seen this before and foretold all that has happened in the last 5 years.”
Yes, my wife says the same thing and has predicted everything that has happened. Every time Obemba is on TV she says, “CASTRO!”
People who think it can’t happen here are fools...
BUMP
Should be mandatory viewing for all grade school kids.
Just shared Mr. Martinez’s video with my 9 year old. Then spent time showing her pictures and facts on Nazi Germany, Pol Pot, China and Cuba. How man/govt is so trustworthy; especially with an unarmed populace.
