U.S. Muslim Writer Agitates for Citizens to Disarm -- JPFO Fires Back

JPFO ^ | 1/8/07 | The Liberty Crew

Another “think tank,” this one called the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding (ISPU), has come out for total civilian disarmament and repeal of the Second Amendment.

What’s new about that? ISPU is openly pro-Muslim, and the ISPU writer is a criminal defense attorney who argues for repealing parts of the Bill of Rights.

You can read the whole article, entitled “In the Fight Against Terrorism, Some Rights Must Be Repealed,” by Junaid Afeef, on the ISPU website:

http://www.ispu.us/pages/articles/2914/articleDetailPB.html

A JPFO supporter sent us the link, and we did read the article, looking for:

a. Inaccurate “facts” b. Missing data and support for factual claims c. Tricks in shifting the context or changing the subject d. Statements of opinion presented as though they were unquestionable facts e. Insults, innuendoes and smears f. Key facts or considerations that are totally ignored g. Logic errors

We found many errors, fallacies, propaganda tricks, and an outright lie or two. When you read the piece, see how many you can find.

Or – you can go directly to our analysis and response to the article, entitled “A Muslim Writer Tells America: Drop Your Guns and Give Up" at www.jpfo.org/dropguns.pdf

We take the ISPU article apart, paragraph by paragraph. Some of the points may be familiar to you, but there are a few new twists.

Do we expect to convince ISPU or Mr. Afeef of the errors of their position? Not really. We are publishing a response so that gun owners and rights supporters can keep their intellectual guns polished and powder dry.

The enemies of the Bill of Rights come in all flavors. We can never rest, thinking that we have answered all of their challenges.

Let us know what you think after reading our response.

"... emasculate American males by treating boyhood as ADD..." This is so true. Here in DC they are actually advertising on TV for people to "bring in" their kids to be "checked" for ADD. Most little boys are naughty, and have more energy than their parents. Yet for centuries somehow they managed to grow up to be responsible adults. In a vast majority of cases this isn't something that needs to be remedied by anything more drastic than parental discipline. Our kids are being "treated" to the point that we are creating a nation of wussies and weenies willing to follow the likes of John Kerry.

What arsenal do you recommend? I only have a 12 ga. at the moment.

Either they are willing to follow Kerry, or they get smacked down by Tigger!

[Joe Brower]

Interesting.

Yet another reminder to never give up your guns. Never.

[mbynack]

I think we're all missing the main point. What qualifications do you need to meet to be considered a "think tank"? This "think tank" seems to be a couple of quarts low on a key ingredient.

[WatchingInAmazement]

This "institute" also advocates not controlling the borders and MORE immigration. Surprise!

These airheads want to disarm private Americans to make the continent safe for islamofascists? Sure, that will happen just after the sun becomes a red supergiant and dies out.

This is huge. They are acknowledging that repeal of the Second Ammendment would be necessary to disarm the population!

[Just A Nobody]

Yeah right!

Ain't gonna happen ..... EVER!

[backtothestreets]

My dislike of Muslims grows more by the day as they make their assaults in every imaginable manner.

Be ever wary. There was an amendment proposed in the 102nd Congress (1991-1992) to repeal the Second Amendment. More attempts will be made, but they will likely take a stealth form like the Fourteenth Amendment that was used to strip the states of the right to make laws on the establishment of religion, speech, press and assembly.

We must also remain cognizant our most powerful weapon at this time is at our fingertips this very moment. That weapon is words put to ideas and ideals. It was the weapon that gave the colonists hope of independence and freedom.

For sale, silhouettes with rags on their heads. One should always practice!

I'll have to read the article later, but it certainly ought to be interesting.

Reason to join the NRA if you don't already belong.

That's why they seek to emasculate American males by treating boyhood as ADD and imposing Ritalin on them, crippling the military and disarming the citizen.

You GET IT! Welcome to FreeRepublic!

"And while we are at it, lets cut up that nice red, white & blue flag so we can all have a piece of it to take home!"

Yeah, right.

It is true that I was born at night, but not last night.

[absolootezer0]

12ga is a good place to start.
I'd suggest going with an AR15 clone or any of the ak47 types. then a handgun in either .45acp or 9mm.
those are going to be the most popular calibres with ammo and hicap mags widely available.

Given that today’s biggest single threat of murderous attacks on unarmed civilians worldwide comes from Islamic terrorists, it seems rather suspicious that an Islamic think tank in the United States would want to force powerlessness on the American people.

Gee, ya think?
