Michael Moore is so full of crap and so are all those who think new and more gun laws are the answer to what happened in Aurora, Colorado.
All the ignorant rhetoric that spews from the mouths of these liberal authoritarians makes me puke because taking guns away from law abiding citizens is not going to stop the killing which anyone with a grain of common sense knows to be true.
Let me say, parenthetically, that I don’t think liberals are wrong about everything and I don’t think conservatives are right about everything. In fact, these days I’m inclined to think that most of the so called conservatives are wrong about more things than they are right about. To tell you the truth I think that those who put themselves in either of these two groups are both wrong about many things and are not even asking the right questions and that’s the real problem. Both sides are really just Authoritarians who think what they think should be the law of the land.
Moore says that most of the guns in the US are owned by white suburbanites and he pokes fun at them asking, “who are they afraid of…. little freckle-faced Johnny down the street?” Hmm? What a stupid question in light of what he and the whole country just witnessed with a shooting by a young man who just about fits the description he just gave.
Did this shooting not take place in a mostly white suburban community? OH, I think it did! What an idiot! Maybe if some of the patrons of the cinema had been armed they might have brought this crazed killer down and saved some lives.
Okay, what happens when the people are powerless to defend themselves against a government that becomes irredeemably corrupt? Not having weapons to defend ourselves against an oppressive corrupt government means we are subordinate to every whim of the governing body and that’s exactly what the 2nd Amendment was all about, not hunting and personal safety and the politicians would have us to believe. Basically every adult person in each state was to have arms and were to form militias, state militias which means there wouldn’t be this gigantic federal military industrial complex in place that can basically hold the states hostage and it’s citizens.
But now even an armed citizenry doesn’t stand much of a chance against the high-tech weaponry the police and military now use but at least it would give them pause. I think the government would think twice about declaring a police state knowing that so many of it’s citizens are armed to the hilt. It sure couldn’t hurt.
Holy Crap! The most recent laws and executive orders that have been handed down allow the US military to arrest US citizens and hold them without charging them, without due process for indefinite detention and so on. It even gives the president the power to order an American citizen to be assassinated!
So we all know what happens when the people are defenseless because we see examples of it all around the globe. Countries where the citizens live under oppressive regimes and are absolutely powerless to do anything about it because the regime is in control of the military and the weapons. The people have no defense so they must either leave their homes or live under the oppression. Common sense tells you that whoever has the military hardware is going to be in control.
So I ask Michael Moore and all those idiots that think we shouldn’t, as citizens, be allowed to protect ourselves from an over-reaching, out of control federal or state government, what are you going to do when the soldiers come knocking on your door because you said something publicly that the government deems as dangerous to US security?
So yes Michael Moore, I do think we need our guns, Big Guns. You must either be completely ignorant of history and have your head in the sand if you are not aware of what is going on around the world where the people can’t defend themselves. Defending yourself and your family is a basic human right regardless of what you think the 2nd Amendment means.
The Power Elite love the Michael Moore’s of the world because they are playing right into their hands. They know that in order to have complete control over the people you must ultimately put them in a position of defenselessness.
So keep it up Mr. Moore and it won’t be long that you’ll have your perfect America – a plutocratic, totalitarian America! I know that’s always been my dream. We’re just about there now the truth be known.
And one more thing. No disrespect to the families and friends who have lost loved ones in this senseless massacre but why aren’t more Americans incensed at what is being done by our government, in our names, killing innocent people all over the globe in these senseless wars that never end?
We’ve killed tens of thousands, some reports are even higher, of innocent, non-combatants, women and children and men, who have no quarrel with us but are caught in the cross-hairs of America’s fraudulent “war on terror”
Where’s the moral outrage? Isn’t our government just as guilty of senseless murder as is James Holmes? The answer is absolutely Yes! But it’s that same government that is working tirelessly to take away our guns and leave us as defenseless as the thousands they have killed with their drone and missile attacks. They claim there is minimal “collateral damage” in these attacks but the peoples of these countries would not agree from all the reports I’ve read.
Shoot, there have been high ranking individuals within the government whose consciences have compelled them to simply tell the truth about things our government is doing, such as spying on it’s own citizens, violating their constitutional rights and they are then charged with espionage and treason for doing the right thing. So just how far do you think we are from a Totalitarian State? We’ve already arrived.
So should ordinary citizens be able to own AK47’s? Well if you think you can trust your government to always do the right thing and that it will never become corrupt… oops! Yeah, right… Oh too late for that!
