When guns are outlawed, only outlaws have guns
by JohnHuang2
A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, including their own government. George Washington
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Venus Ramey, Miss America 1944, was about to get robbed yet again last week at her south-central Kentucky farm, so she exercised gun control by holding her snub-nosed .38-caliber weapon steady as she shot out the tires of the thiefs would-be getaway car, using her walker to steady her aim with each shot. The 82-year-old pistol-packin-mama then flagged down a passing motorist and calmly held the thief at gunpoint until the Sheriff arrived. (The Sheriff had just finished an urgent call at Donkin Donuts.) Miss Americas farm apparently was not a gun-free zone. But according to New York Times editorials, people like Ramey would be much safer unarmed. Liberals would love to make all of America a gun-free zone, just like theyd love to fix American health care by making it one giant Walter Reed system.
The idiocy of gun control and gun-free zoning at Virginia Tech helped get 32 of its students and teachers shot to death, so liberals insist the solution is even more gun control. And bigger gun-free zoning. (New libbie slogan: People dont kill people, guns do.)
To make college campuses even safer, I suppose the next thing theyll do is chase off military recruiters oops, theyre already doing that.
After patiently allowing families an appropriate period for grieving 10 seconds the New York Times opined that what is needed, urgently, is stronger controls over the lethal weapons that cause such wasteful carnage and such unbearable loss. Lethal weapons are notorious for turning beacons of mental health like Cho Seung-Hui into raving mass killers.
Speaking of raving lunatics, Rep. Jim Moran accused the GOP of Chos killing rampage, charging hysterically that allowing the Assault Weapons Ban to lapse was the reason for the shooting an insane and moranic charge.
Rep. Carolyn McCarthy revealed that Chos shooting rampage was caused by the gun lobby. Chos rampage could have been avoided [had] congressional leaders stood up to the gun lobby, she said. A few months ago, the blithering genius introduced the Assault Weapons Ban of 2007 which also regulates weapons with pistol grips and a barrel shroud. To stop a gunman hellbent on killing, just pass a law about a barrel shroud. Anyone can see that the homicidal maniac screaming in that video manifesto just needs a barrel shroud law. America already has 20,000 gun laws on the books one more and itll be paradise. (Asked on MSNBC what a barrel shroud is, McCarthy said she didnt know.)
Cho attended a government university run by liberals and filled with liberal professors teaching liberal dogma so you know it had to be the NRA.
ABCs Brian Ross reported that the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 banned the use of high-capacity magazines that Cho didnt even use, which prompted Sen. Schumer to demand renewal of the Assault Weapons Ban.
Sen. Patrick Leahy responded to Virginia Tech by holding hearings on those eight U.S. attorneys.
On the basis of no credible evidence, liberals are ready to shut down the American economy because of global warming, yet show them stacks and stacks of statistics that more guns equals less crime and they respond by lapsing into hysteria. The Spanish train bombings were caused by a lack of train control! The shoe bomber lack of shoe control! Carjackings lack of car control! Global warming lack of toilet paper control!
Mondays Sydney Morning Herald of Australia noted how two teenagers who wanted to experience murder told police it felt right to strangle a friend (using speaker wire) and bury her body in a shallow grave. Australia needs to ban speaker wire.
After 1960, liberals made it harder and harder to buy guns legally. After 1960, we got more and more killing rampages like Virginia Tech. Every time some nut fires at a crowd, liberals express shock that criminals dont obey gun laws then insist its proof we need more gun laws. I have it on good authority its already illegal to murder 32 people, yet Cho murdered 32 people.
With regards to security on college campuses and everywhere else, just ask yourself, what would Miss America 1944 do?
* Virginia Tech would not be a declared Haven for murderers technically known as gun-free zone. That wouldve put a serious dent in Chos plans right there. Things like banning guns, dialing 911 and other elements of Virginia Techs impeccable security action plan would be gone. Those big signs which read, Killers be warned: We have no guns here, so stay away! would vanish too. (To really keep the killers away, start college gun clubs on campus.)
* It would not have taken Miss America over 2 hours after the first two homicides and with a gunman on the loose on campus to realize there was a problem. Shed have preempted the massacre by (a) notifying students before the massacre and (b) locking down the campus. Liberals would scream that kids would be missing classes.
The Virginia Tech massacre didnt happen because of too many Miss Americas with guns, it happened because of too many nuts like Cho who shouldve ended up in a state mental hospital and not a state university where he was stalking students, writing insanely violent plays, committing arson. It was clear from his video that Cho was certifiable so certifiable, hed blend right in at DailyKos.
The liberals who run Virginia Tech didnt consider stalking, setting dormitory rooms on fire, and creeping everyone out on campus enough to warrant kicking him out or even suspension. He never called anyone a faggot.
And the dormitory room fire was caused by a lack of match control.
Sixteen months before Cho offed his victims, there were so many signals that he was a nut, it convinced even mental health experts. The only reason this whack-job was on the loose is because libbies worry about privacy, which is why states like Virginia absurdly dont share their mental health records with the feds even if its a nut like Cho so the gun dealer didnt see a red flag.
But hold on. Scratch the privacy rights veneer and youll find liberals who think psychos like Cho arent really psychos, just slightly cuckoo the cuckooness nothing more than Chos reasonable response to the injustices of capitalist America. And the cruel, dehumanizing evil of campus food. Cramp campus dorms. Homework. Having to attend classes with rich kids around. Cho was just under so much pressure. The air of Marxism in Chos video manifesto proves comrade Cho was being class oppressed! Libbies think of criminals in much the same way theyre just a product of horrible Amerika, dont incarcerate, they just need therapy. If you take this idiocy to its next level, every raving nutter and criminal can be rehabilitated with just the right treatment and should not be locked up. Whether its criminals, lunatics or Sunni insurgents, liberals dont want anyone locked up unless hes Tom DeLay.
Libbies got the hots for deinstitutionalization the practice of keeping Cho out of mental hospitals and in universities back in the 60s, class action suing their way into liberating mental patients across America, which expanded homelessness, which got liberals complaining about expanded homelessness, which liberals said was caused not by liberals putting mental patients on the streets but by Reagans tax cuts. It is estimated that up to 50% of the homeless are mentally ill those despicable tax cuts.
People squatting in tent cities, city parks and pushing shopping carts filled with garbage theyd be doctors and engineers if only taxes were higher!
The crowning jewel of deinstitutionalization was John Kennedys Community Mental Health Act of 1963, then came the privacy rules of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which gave us Cho. The psychiatric hospital that treated Cho couldnt legally compare notes with Virginia Tech counselors nor dean without Chos OK as an outpatient. Its notable that just before the HIPAA Privacy and Security Acts went into effect, the big worry was the cost of compliance. And with its complexity, nobody was ready to shoot from the HIPAA. At Virginia Tech, the cost of compliance consisted of 32 dead students and teachers. Because when guns are outlawed, the only one shooting from the hip is the outlaw. Liberals have blood on their hands.
Anyway, that's...
My two cents

What Money Cant Buy
READ:
Isaiah 55:1-7Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. Isaiah 55:6
Money is a necessary part of living. Without it, we couldnt secure the necessities or luxuries of life. But there are things money cant buy. As preacher W. A. Criswell said, Money will buy luxuries, but it will not buy spiritual power. Money will buy advancement and preferment, but it will not buy the recognition of God. Money will buy . . . favor and accolades, but it will not buy soul respect.
The greatest goodso great that it is in a category all by itselfcannot be bought. If the entire human race were to bankrupt its resources in an effort to buy forgiveness of sin and eternal life with Jesus, it would be infinitely insufficient. All the wealth of the whole world cannot purchase the supreme blessing of forgiveness and heaven.
Well never accumulate enough riches to purchase a place in the paradise of God. But theres good news! Salvation can be ours without money and without price, according to Isaiah 55:1.
Have you trusted Jesus as your Savior? You need only to stretch out your empty hands in childlike faith to the Lord (John 1:12). Cry out to Him and confess your sin. He will abundantly pardon (Isa. 55:7
I am redeemed, but not with silver;
I am bought, but not with gold;
Bought with a pricethe blood of Jesus,
Precious price of love untold. Gray
The faintest knock of faith opens wide the door to forgiveness.

I did not return my pings or comment yesterday afternoon.I enjoyed all the graphics and sweet comments.
I slept 12 hours last night..LOL I had a full afternoon and early evening yesterday out and about and was pooped after putting away the groceries.( I shop like I’m going to be snowed in in the wilderness..a habit from being without a car for months last year).
The weather was delicious yesterday and is again today. Hope yours is,too.
