“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms . . . make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” — Thomas Jefferson

A  Democrat-lead legislature in Massachusetts intends to pass legislation (H 2005) that would force doctors in the state to identify patients who have guns in their homes, and to target them for gun confiscation under the state’s “Red Flag” statute.

“In the midst of a Democrat-led, multi-state assault on the right to keep and bear arms comes this. A Massachusetts politician has proposed a bill to mandate that doctors in the state “screen” patients for gun ownership, and then report owners to the state for possible targeting by red flag statues.” — Gardner Goldsmith, MRC TV

Democrat Representative Jon Santiago’s proposed legislation calls for the state public health commissioner to “promulgate regulations establishing (1) the means by which and the intervals at which patients shall be screened for the presence of firearms in the home and (2) guidelines for safety counseling for individuals that screen positive for the presence of firearms in the home.”

The Boston lawmaker’s proposed bill empowers doctors to treat gun ownership like a disease and gun violence as a public health concern.

“We know that gun safety is a public health issue. As such, doctors are uniquely positioned to help prevent gun-related injury and death.” — Marty Martinez, Boston Health and Human Services Chief

Santiago’s bill systematically screens “all patients for the presence of firearms in the home.” Santiago and his colleagues run ruff-shod over that fact that Massachusetts gun owners have the God-given right as pointed out in the Second Amendment to “screen positive for the presence of firearms.”

“Simply put, not only the bill, but the terminology used shows the disdain for simply exercising our civil rights in the Commonwealth.” — Gun Owners Action League, website post

Although some community health centers in the state already question patients about gun ownership and guns in the home, Massachusetts does not have a formal firearm screening program and the state guidelines to implement it.

“Many doctors have already adopted the kind of intervention we’re discussing today as best practice. This bill would simply make that practice universal amongst all medical professionals.” Jennifer Lo, Medical Director, Boston Public Health Commission

Currently no other state has similar policies in place to implement a gun-question screening program, and no details have been provided explaining just how the newly proposed screening program would work.

But the bill’s proponents aren’t sticklers for details. They say the medical consults will be similar to those already being conducted by medical professionals with patients about substance use and mental health.

The truth is Massachusetts legislators are treating guns like a deadly pathogen, and gun owners like carriers. Under the guise of protecting the community, the Democrat legislators want to quarantine gun owners and confiscated guns via “Red Flag” to prevent perceived outbreaks of violence.

“For many years the anti-civil rights crowd has tried to make gun violence a public health crisis. Now it appears that they want to treat simple gun ownership as a disease!” — Gun Owners Action League, website post

“Saying that Guns cause Murders is like saying Steering Wheels cause car wreck” ― Stanley Victor Paskavich, Return to Stantasyland

Thinking people know that no action is done in a vacuum, i.e., actions have consequences, and gun control is an action that has consequences. After weighing the consequences, the question becomes does gun control lead to less crime and fewer deaths?

Many Americans presuppose that gun control laws work. The problem is there’s no proof that they do. In fact, the data suggest that gun control laws don’t work.

People blame the guns, but guns aren’t doing the mass murders, mass murderers are.  Just like drunk drivers cause automobile deaths, not automobiles. Or people who text with cell phones while driving cause deaths, not cell phones.

When will the bleeding-heart lovers of humanity call for immediate legislation to limit sales of automobiles and cell phones and for universal background checks on the people who own them?

The truth is people who believe that guns are responsible for the murderous acts of people are not just being emotional, they’re being irrational.

My latest video, “Don’t Let “Em Take Your Guns” at Brighteon.com combines a series of clips highlighting the dangerous effects of Red Flag Laws, Universal Background Checks, and gun control laws on freedom loving people.

Mr. Marks, by mandate of the District of Columbia Precrime Division, I’m placing you under arrest for the future murder of Sarah Marks and Donald Dubin that was to take place today, April 22 at 0800 hours and four minutes.” (Minority Report)

Pre-Crime is unconstitutional, yet Republican Congressman Dan Crenshaw supports pre-crime legislation to take guns from people before any crime is committed. Clearly, he is betraying his oath of office as well as the voters who put him in that office.

“What we’re talking about is the ability to confiscate weapons when there’s clear evidence that violence is about to be committed.” [emphasis mine] Dan Crenshaw, R-TX

The reality of Red Flag Laws is that they nullify individual rights, and innocent people lose their 2nd Amendment rights and even their lives.

Yet Crenshaw says that Red Flag Laws aren’t “that controversial” becausethere can be “good ones and there can be bad ones.” Crenshaw doesn’t seem to understand that it’s never good to expand the power of the federal government at the expense of individual liberty. Human error is always possible; therefore, always error on the side of liberty.

John Anderton: Why don’t you cut the cute act, Danny boy, and tell me what it is you’re looking for?

Danny Witwer: Flaws.

John Anderton: There hasn’t been a murder in six years. There’s nothing wrong with this system it is…

Danny Witwer: Perfect I agree, but there’s a flaw. It’s human. (Minority Report, 2002)

“We do things without thinking about them at all; and we think things without the slightest intention of doing them.” Hector B. Poole, “A Penny for Your Thoughts” (The Twilight Zone)

Ben Carson Is not Presidential Material

By Jerry A. Kane

Potential 2016 presidential candidate Ben Carson apologized Wednesday for saying homosexuality was a lifestyle choice.

Wednesday morning on CNN’s “New Day” show with Chris Cuomo, Ben Carson said:

“A lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight — and when they come out, they’re gay. So, did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question.”

Wednesday afternoon in a post on his Facebook page Ben Carson wrote:

“I do not pretend to know how every individual came to their sexual orientation. I regret that my words to express that concept were hurtful and divisive. For that I apologize unreservedly to all that were offended.”

Later Wednesday afternoon Ben Carson appeared on Sean Hannity’s radio show and said:

“I simply have decided I’m not going to really talk about that issue anymore, because every time I gain momentum, the liberal press says, ‘let’s talk about gay rights.’ I’m just not going to fall for that anymore.”

During a January 22, 2015, interview with YouTube personality GloZell Green, Hussein (peace be upon him) said:

“I think people know that treating folks unfairly, even if you disagree with their lifestyle choice… Let them live their lives and under the law they should be treated equally”

So both Hussein and Carson violated the gaystapo’s edict that all Americans must believe there’s no choice in sexual orientation. Both black men said that homosexuality is a “lifestyle choice,” yet Carson felt compelled to apologize for violating the gaystapo’s diktat, while Hussein remains unapologetic to this day.

The homofascists have had their way with Carson and have completely discredited him. His anti-2nd amendment stance on gun control took the wind out of his sails, and now this latest mea culpa to the gaystapo leaves him dead in the water. It’s obvious that Carson lacks the backbone to respond with moral conviction and courage against those who promote such a disease ridden, dysfunctional lifestyle.

Clearly, Carson is not presidential material; and were he white, the political pundits would not be talking about him or be paying him any mind.

To quote Homer Simpson, “Let’s file this under R, for arrivederci.”

AMERICA UNDER SIEGE:  “How” vs “Why”

By Bill Been

As an American who values our country second only to God and family, it is difficult to understand why the vast majority of the leaders and spokesmen for our country consistently voice a lack of understanding as to why Barack Obama either does or does not do certain actions that would be viewed as adding value or preserving America. Whether it be elected officials, political experts, talk-radio, or fair and balanced discussions, it seems that the typical responses when asked “Why?” are “I don’t know” or “It is incompetency” or “Obama is inexperienced” or “Obama is just a community organizer” or “inept” or “does not have the will” while ignoring the fact that Barack Obama told America exactly what he was going to do and he is closely following his stated direction.

The purpose of this document is not only to demonstrate that the answer to the “Why?” question is very straightforward, but to also demonstrate that the wrong question is being asked further masking the anti-American agenda of Barack Hussein Obama.

My book, Masters of Audacity and Deceit, clearly describes why Barack Obama is acting in a fashion that is opposing America and the fundamental principles upon which America was founded. At the time the book was written, the concerns that are reality today were presented as threats created or supported by the National Democrat Party that need to be understood and confronted by all citizens. These same threats provide the explanation for Barack Obama’s apparent “incompetence” and can be summarized in one statement as follows:

Barack Obama is simply carrying out his transformation objectives and direction that he promised five days prior to his election to the presidency in 2008 by following the ideology and teachings of Cloward & Piven, Karl Marx, Saul Alinsky, and Jeremiah Wright as interpreted by a host of communists including his mother, Frank Marshall Davis, and the admitted small ’c’ communist Bill Ayers, and far left groups epitomized by the Institute For Policy Studies while drawing financial and ideological support from wealthy liberals led by George Soros and the Soros Democracy Alliance group, the anti-American Progressive groups, and Wall Street executives such as Lloyd Blankfein under the protective cover of a totally compromised Mainstream Media and the corrupted modern day Democrat Party that is populated by leaders who lie, cheat, distort, and politicize events for their self-serving objectives without regard for either America or the American people.

That Barack Obama has succeeded in reaching his objectives is evident from the following list of his “accomplishments” during his first six years:

  1. FAST & FURIOUS AND 2ND AMENDMENT
  2. NSA INTRUSION INTO PRIVACY AND FREEDOM
  3. IRS TARGETING CONSERVATIVE GROUPS
  4. BENGHAZI
  5. IRAQ-RAMADI, FALLUJAH, AND MOSUL IN CONTROL OF ISLAMIC TERRORISTS
  6. 36,000 ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS RELEASED INTO USA POPULATION
  7. BERGDAHL FOR 5 TALIBAN WAR PRISONERS
  8. MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD SUPPORTED IN EGYPT
  9. SYRIAN RED LINE
  10. LIBYA IN CHAOS AS EXAMPLE OF “RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT”
  11. OBAMACARE-HERNDON ALLIANCE—“YOU CAN KEEP YOUR PLAN”—FAR LEFT, MOVE-ON, SOROS
  12. 90,000 IMMIGRANT CHILDREN AND PROPOSED $3.7 BILLION PLUS TO RESOLVE THE CRISIS
  13. BLATENT DISREGARD FOR ISRAEL AND CHRISTIANS IN FOREIGH COUNTRIES (CONVERT, TAX OR DIE)

One special accomplishment that is an active work in process of Obama and his administration is to establish that “America is not a Christian nation” while declaring that Islam was instrumental in the establishment of America. This fallacious and false representation of American history was clearly debunked in a recent Fourth of July sermon that spoke to the charters of the Original Thirteen Colonies and why these people had left their homelands for the freedoms available in the New World. These charters tell the real American story and the success in downplaying this Judeo-Christian heritage is the most repulsive and scandalous accomplishment of Barack Hussein Obama. These charters are presented with the hope being that some people will awaken and come to the rescue of America before Barack Obama and his anti-American allies complete their destruction of the greatest country on earth. Quotes from the charters follow:

Virginia – to help in “propagating of Christian religion…”

Plymouth – “…to advance the enlargement of the Christian religion to the glory of God Almighty.”

Delaware – one purpose is “…the further propagation of the Holy Gospel.”

Maryland – first settlers motivated by “…pious zeal for extending the Christian religion.”

Massachusetts – bring “the knowledge and obedience of the only true God and Savior of mankind.”

Rhode Island – “Commits its people to the true Christian faith and worship of God.”

Connecticut – “to help preserve the liberty and purity of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

New Hampshire – “…do in the name of Christ and in the sight of God…”

In addition, when the Declaration of Independence was written, the last words were “…under the protection of the Divine Providence.” This was followed some years later by George Washington, after his first inauguration, leading the members of the House and Senate to St. Paul’s Church in New York to seek guidance and to commit America to God.

In conclusion, the answer to the “Why?” question is very simply stated above if one understands the various transformation objectives that Barack Obama has clearly articulated throughout his lifetime. If this is understood, the need for the “Why?” question no longer exists, and the correct question can then be asked which is: “How do current events and crises fit into the Barack Obama transformation objectives and direction.?” Without this question being asked and answered, the American people will continue going to the next election never understanding why our great country is being diminished at home and abroad!!!!
