You won’t see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.

During WW II, the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!

Gun owners in the USA are the largest armed forces in the World and every Tyrannical Dictator and Nutjob Leader wants to disarm that threat……including our own Liberals, Democrats and Leaders in our own Government!

It’s been a work in progress for a number of years, the dumbing down and brainwashing of our population. Joseph Goebbels would be jealous and proud of the methods and results of the propaganda that has been disseminated by the leaders, in all walks of our society, and embraced by such a large part of our non-thinking population.

Two Americas

The Democrats are right, there are two Americas.

The America that works, and the America that doesn’t.

The America that contributes, and the America that doesn’t.

It’s not the haves and the have nots, it’s the dos and the don’ts.

Some people do their duty as Americans, obey the law, support themselves, contribute to society, and others don’t. That’s the divide in America.

It’s not about income inequality, it’s about civic irresponsibility.

It’s about a political party that preaches hatred, greed and victimization in order to win elective office.

It’s about a political party that loves power more than it loves its country. That’s not invective, that’s truth, and it’s about time someone said it.

The politics of envy was on proud display a couple weeks ago when President Biden pledged the rest of his term to fighting “income inequality.” He noted that some people make more than other people, that some people have higher incomes than others, and he says that’s not just.

That is the rationale of thievery. The other guy has it, you want it, Biden will take it for you. Vote Democrat.

That is the philosophy that produced Detroit. It is the electoral philosophy that is destroying America .

It conceals a fundamental deviation from American values and common sense because it ends up not benefiting the people who support it, but a betrayal.

The Democrats have not empowered their followers; they have enslaved them in a culture of dependence and entitlement, of victim-hood and anger instead of ability and hope.

The president’s premise – that you reduce income inequality by debasing the successful – seeks to deny the successful the consequences of their choices, and spare the unsuccessful the consequences of their choices. Because, by and large, income variations in society are a result of different choices leading to different consequences. Those who choose wisely and responsibly have a far greater likelihood of success, while those who choose foolishly and irresponsibly have a far greater likelihood of failure. Success and failure usually manifest themselves in personal and family income.

You choose to drop out of high school or to skip college – and you are apt to have a different outcome than someone who gets a diploma and pushes on with purposeful education and/or employment.

You have your children out of wedlock and life is apt to take one course; you have them within a marriage and life is apt to take another course.

Most often in life our destination is determined by the course we take.

My doctor, for example, makes far more than I do. There is significant income inequality between us. Our lives have had an inequality of outcome, but, our lives also have had an inequality of effort. While my doctor went to college and then devoted his young adulthood to medical school and residency, I chose another avenue.

He made a choice, I made a choice, and our choices led us to different outcomes. His outcome pays a lot better than mine. Does that mean he cheated and Joe Biden needs to take away his wealth? No, it means we are both free men in a free society where free choices lead to different outcomes.

It is not inequality Joe Biden intends to take away, it is freedom. The freedom to succeed and the freedom to fail. There is no true option for success if there is no true option for failure. The pursuit of happiness means a whole lot less when you face the punitive hand of government if your pursuit brings you more happiness than the other guy. Even if the other guy sat on his arse and did nothing. Even if the other guy made a lifetime’s worth of asinine and shortsighted decisions.

President Biden and the Democrats preach equality of outcome as a right, while completely ignoring inequality of effort. The simple Law of the Harvest – as ye sow, so shall ye reap – is sometimes applied as, “The harder you work, the more you get.” Biden would turn that upside down. Those who achieve are to be punished as enemies of society and those who fail are to be rewarded as wards of society.

Entitlement will replace effort as the key to upward mobility in American society if President Biden Barack gets his way. He seeks a lowest common denominator society in which the government besieges the successful and productive to foster equality through mediocrity. He and his party speak of two Americas, and their grip on power is based on using the votes of one to sap the productivity of the other. America is not divided by the differences in our outcomes, it is divided by the differences in our efforts. It is a false philosophy to say one man’s success comes about unavoidably as the result of another man’s victimization.

What Biden offered was not a solution, but a separatism. He fomented division and strife, pitted one set of Americans against another for his own political benefit. That’s what socialists offer. Marxist class warfare wrapped up with a bow.

Two Americas, coming closer each day to proving the truth to Lincoln’s maxim that a house divided against itself cannot stand.

We with some sense and morals must resist forever!

You are right on Chuck.
But it's all bullshit.
They will seek to accomplish this with taxes, to which the majority will be fleeced.
This commie crap is all bullshit to control the mass idiots and scare the rest.
The big players at the top that are calling the shots aren't actual commies.
They are globalist criminals. They dont just want wealth.
They want to control the wealth.
Even Putin isn't a commie.
He's the richest man on earth.

Every day on the news radio channel I here of several more people being shot and murdered in Philadelphia. They keep interviewing The Dem. Mayor (Kenney) to get his view on a solution and his reply is always too many guns on the streets.
Pisses me off when all these inner city liberal dems blame the guns!! How about calling out the trash using the guns to commit murder !!!
 
#72 ·
If anyone cant see the truth by now they never will.
The government doesnt give a shit about inner city violence.
They only want to eliminate all citizens owning guns.
They use arguments like "stopping gun violence" to justify using your tax dollars to take away your rights.

Australia gave up their guns, stupidly. Now their prime minister is saying it is for the New World Order. Aussie cops are beating people in the street for not wearing a mask or stepping outside to have a smoke. The cops seem to be enjoying it, going that extra mile by kicking old ladies in the back.
Gun owners in this country are the only thing really standing in the way of that New World Order.
Who is gonna say ENOUGH? Better yet, who will stand in the way?
We have have a million Haitians heading here. Who paid their way? (Soros, Bloomberg, Rothschild.)
The only way they can get the New World Order is by disarming you.

"You let a motherfucker kick you 5 times, they goin’ kick you 5 times
You let them kick you 3 times, they goin’ kick you 3 times
You let them kick you twice, they goin’ kick you twice
You let them kick you once, they goin’ kick you once
But if you break off the motherfuckin’ feet, ain’t going to be no more kickin’ goin’ on, kid."

I didn't want to bring this up before because I didn't know if i was acceptable but I will try here.

2 years ago, I accidentally got a vacuum sealer at an auction hidden in a box. I decided to look into vacuum sealing. Once I got hooked into vacuum sealing, I started looking for long lasting foods to seal. To make this a little shorter, I found cheap foods that would last 10 years or more when properly sealed. (Twinkies contain no dairy and they have no expiration date.) For about $300 I have put together 6 months worth of food for 2 people. It may not be tasty but it will keep us alive. I found about 10 different ways to purify water and boil water in 4 minutes with twigs from the yard with a jet stove made out of a paint can. I have new and old types of first aid items. My only problem was I needed a long shelf life for cheap protein. After 2 years I just found it. These are not expensive MRE's or things like that. These are cheap sustainable foods. The reason I posted this is that I have put all this to disc in both Word and PDF. I am offering a few of these discs for free. If you are interested, just PM me and I will send a disc out to you at no charge. These findings are put together in chapters so it is easy to follow. I have mailed some of these to my friends and they appreciated it. (Yes, I have few friends but far away.)

PS. When I got into this, I prepared for a TOTAL shut down of the economy, not a partial shut down. Guess what I forgot? Toilet Paper. I guess I forgot Sears and Roebuck doesn't send out catalogs any more but the documents take care of that issue also.

The founder of Dubai, Sheikh Rashid, was asked about the future of his country, and he replied, “My grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I ride a Mercedes, my son rides a Land Rover, and my grandson is going to ride a Land Rover…but my great-grandson is going to have to ride a camel again.”

Why is that, he was asked? And his reply was, “Hard times create strong men, strong men create easy times. Easy times create weak men, weak men create difficult times. Many will not understand it, but you have to raise warriors, not parasites.”

And add to that the historical reality that all great empires…the Persians, the Trojans, the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans, and in later years, the British…all rose and all but perished within 240 years. They were not conquered by external enemies; they rotted from within.

America has now passed that 240 year mark, and the rot is starting to be visible and is accelerating. We are past the Mercedes and Land Rover Years….the camels are on the horizon.

That quote very true.
But it wasn't a shiek that said it.

That's actually a quote from the book
"Those who remain" by G. Michael Hopf.

The actual quote is "Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times."

Lou Holtz, football coach, was asked what is the difference in football players today and 50 years ago.
He answered, “Simple, today’s athletes talk about rights and privileges.
The players 50 years ago talked about obligations and responsibilities!”
To me, that describes society today.
