Most people would not think to bring a firearm into a night club, which is good.
Our country has come as far as any to make its citizens feel safe and not feel
personal protection is needed.
But, these are unusual times, clouded with fear. Fear of what our govt. refuses
to do and anger for what it seems incapable to do, both putting the people at
great risk.
While this is the reality that needs our attention we continue be told about matters
baring little relevance, which are only brought up to advance political desires.
Misstatements, 'confirmed' by fear, is what we have to deal with. And how we
respond determines if our security will be equal to the threat our nation faces.
Firearms are again under attack by those who actually believe if 'good' people
who obey the law do not have guns than 'bad' people who don't will not have
guns either.
After the attack on a night club in Orlando, the expected resuscitated rallying
cry heard was to "ban assault weapons". On the surface this seems reasonable
until you consider the fact, they are already banned!
Most people may not be aware as the media now call any firearm an "assault
weapon" to continue to drive the message of fear, not the one of individual
vigilance!
If you want to know when assault weapons were banned, here is the date
line, what occurred since they were banned.
They were banned before the 2008 financial crisis, the 2004 creation of
Facebook, the 2002 removal of Saddam Hussein, the 2001 9/11 attack
on the World Trade Center, the 2000 dot.com bubble, 1996 Hillary Clinton
lie blaming a 'Vast Right Wing Conspiracy' for President Clinton using the
office as a romper room.
The year was 1994 and the legislation passed was the Federal Assault
Weapons Ban (AWB), officially, Public Safety and Recreational Firearms
Use Protection Act. Story on link: http://bit.ly/1tpEx6f
So the obvious question, knowing that assault weapons are banned, what
should be banned next? Perhaps pressure cookers, the weapon of choice
by the Boston bombers used in 2013!
