| Gun Owners of America
Posted on 12/17/2008 6:32:16 PM PST by USAF70
National Geographic Channel ran a show last night entitled, "Gun In America." According to the program, there are millions of misguided gun owners across the nation. Why? Because your guns are supposedly more likely to harm you than to help you in an emergency.
"As a society, we're totally out of control with weapons," said one Philadelphia cop who was interviewed during the show. "You need to limit access that people have to these type of firearms."

I read a post on another message board that the Fraternal Order of Police Chiefs overwhelmingly voted for little o. Is this true?

"As a society, we're totally out of control with weapons," said one Philadelphia cop who was interviewed during the show. "You need to limit access that people have to these type of firearms." Wrong on two counts:
1. I practice regularly with my weapons, and I have complete control, not that my skill is the government's business.
2. "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" means that the anti-freedom cop who doesn't like guns is specifically prohibited from limiting access to firearms.

""You need to limit access that people have to these type of firearms."Thus has spoken every tyrant, nazi, despot or dictator since the gun was invented. The elitist attitude is that the common people have no competence with (and hence no business owning) weapons.
I will compete with any randomly chosen 100 or 1000 cops and I will finish in the top quarter on a bad day.

The Chiefs are not the same as the patrol officers who tend to favor the 2nd amendment. The Chiefs associations are by and large gun grabbers.

National Geographic TV Takes Aim At Your Guns
Years ago they seduce me with bare-breasted maidens from
any number of paradises.
Now they tell me that shooting guns is necessarily evil?
Looks like senility has set in over at The National Geographic.
Somebody needs to send a request for the expenditures of National
Geographic expeditions from the inception of the group to about 1945.
And do a line-item check on the sort of "heat" they needed to
pack when going into locales where the native might not have been
very friendly.

Being ex law enforcement, I have something to say to the Officer from Philly. F*** Off you dim wit. Law abiding gun owners are not a danger to you. Gang bangers who break the law are. Go and hassle them, not some one who is using there god given rights to own a fire arm. If your to afraid to do your job, then quit.

I'm old enough to remember when National Geographic reported facts.

This quote - and I'm sure I don't need to watch to put it in context - was a cherry-picked blurb uttered by some flatfoot patrolling the most seedy ghettos of Filthadelphia, and 'bannerized' specifically for this anti-Constitutional diatribe. Screw the cop and the Naked African Pygmy Channel that produced it.

They can’t even get it right on climate change. How do they know anything about my firearms?
We live in a civilized country. Nat Geo has spent too much time in Africa documenting pygmies and tribal wars.

Philly is one of those liberal Democrat mismanaged enclaves. What do they know about freedom of choice for everyone outside their little utopia?

You know, maybe if the Philadelphia Police would get rid of their guns the criminal element would not feel the need to have guns. hmmm??? hmmm?? Did you know that when the British police did not carry guns, crime was much lower there??? hmmm?? hmmm?? Clearly police shouldn't carry guns!!!!

Isn’t there some organization of police chiefs or something? I don’t know, that’s why I’m asking. The dude that posted it on another message board was a cop and an obama nuthugger.
