Gun Control vs. Crime Control
LETTER TO EDITOR RESPONSE - YOU DECIDE
Dilbert certainly "tells it like it is" in this hysterical cartoon strip about workplace life and the people in it. Thousands of readers identify with their own daily situations which makes them laugh even harder.
I have recently received an email comment on my video on January 9, 2014 about The Self-Evident Truth - Obama's Denial It illustrates "Ignorance" as a reader's point of view.
First, my liberal reader first openly admits he has not "read" my article, not realizing it was a video content. He is running out blathering his opinion based on nothing he read in my blog. Second, he states that the "NRA takes the second amendment out of context and he never heard the NRA mention that citizens are required to join a militia under the control of the governor." (no such militia conscription requirement) So, he shows his "ignorance" as a typical TV in-between commercials, 5 second sound-bite, liberal type of a guy. In his rhetorical gunfight he shoots from the hip and asks questions later. Please read his email and my response below - make up your own mind.

I didn't read the article but i [sic] wonder why all gun nuts only quote the second phrase of the second amendment and never mention well regulated [sic] militia.
The origins of the amendment can be traced to shays [sic] rebellion in Massachusetts and local militias were used by the government to put down the whiskey rebellion. Prior to the civil war gun ownership was very limited and was promoted by the arms manufacturers to keep their factories operating upon the conclusion of the civil war.
The NRA takes the second amendment out of context and I have never heard a word about requiring gun owners to join a well regulated [sic] militia under the control of the governor. Wait, that's the national guard. [sic]
Is it any wonder why our country is so screwed up and these people simply attack, berate and vilify any conservative without any facts? -- Just go view MSNBC and CNN for "the news" and you understand their fact sources.

Simply, you take arms away from law abiding citizens you leave them defenseless against the masses of bad guys that are skulking our streets every single day and night. And this is only one aspect for the right to bear arms.
Trust me when I say that there are A LOT of them around today if this individual has not noticed. Couple questions for you.
Think you're going to disarm all these bad guys? Well, ya better think again!!!!!
Think allll these bad guys obtained these firearms legally? HA! Ya better think again friend.
Think allll these bad guys behave responsibly? .. better think again.
You will NEVER disarm the bad guy!!!! !!!!! ever ...........................
It is unfortunate that this individual didn't bother to watch the video yet is so stuck in his own opinion. Because that is exactly what his response is, an opinion laced with nasty language. By the way, what is up with that?
Rather reminds me of this 2,572 page Obamacare Monstrosity that was passed without ALL "The Powers That Be" reading the mess first and comprehending it before dumping it on the American people. They probably still haven't read it. They passed it anyway. ??? Since I'm tapping into this subject for a second, what is up with our president to blatantly lie to the American people, "You can keep your own insurance policy if you like it . . . BLAH!!!" My son's individual insurance policy was not only cancelled due to the fact it did not comply with Mr. O's policy, in order to obtain a comparable policy his premium went up $100 a month. How nice. Hmmm. Anyone want to tell me that Mr. O did not have this knowledge while he lied straight-faced to every single American citizen? Not the first time. Just saying!! Huh? What's that you say Mr. O?
People must educate themselves on these issues. Soo frustrating! How can anyone discern anything intelligently without so much as to inform oneself with as much information as one can possibly gather? before opening one's mouth! ? Boggles my mind!!
Anyway, bearing arms is like mom and apple pie. Football anyone? .....
