Walk A Mile In The People’s Shoes

In the wake of unspeakable tragedies, the gun banning politicians celebrate the opportunity presented by the deaths of innocent victims by a mentally deranged gunman. They do this by coming up with new and inventive laws to infringe on the rights of the law-abiding citizenry, while doing nothing to punish or prevent those who break the thousands of laws most of us live by, and the criminals simply ignore. Perhaps it’s time to remind them of how we the people actually live since they seem to have lost their perspective after arriving in the hallowed halls of Congress. 

Following the tried-and-true oppression principle of “You never let a serious crisis go to waste”, the gun control zealots flood the airwaves, news, and social media with emotional messages to “do something” following the horrific deaths of innocent victims. Facts don’t matter at a time like this, only that they have the ONE and ONLY solution that will stop so-called ‘gun violence’ once and for all – more gun control.

Remember, gun control does absolutely nothing to increase public safety and the answer to fix that shortcoming is always to implement more gun control.

The truth is the only thing gun control laws are successful at is turning law-abiding citizens in to law-abiding victims. When you legislate away people’s rights and ability to protect themselves and their families at home and in public, while giving criminals a free pass to continue committing crimes and escalating violence with no repercussions, you are going to get exactly what you see happening – every terrorist, criminal and thug targeting your helpless residents. 

Unlike the politicians and the elitists who line their pockets, the average everyday American doesn’t have local, state, and federal law enforcement providing them with security briefings and on-site armed protection when they travel. Everyday Americans don’t get to have venues they visit checked and cleared, members of the public background checked and screened for weapons, and armed security surround them in a security bubble when they go among the masses. Everyday Americans don’t have state of the art security systems at their homes monitored by the Capitol Police with priority response from local authorities.  

Everyday American’s provide their own security. They are their own first responder. They are the ones who go into public by themselves and face the dangers the politicians no longer allow the police or courts to deal with. They go out day and night to work, to shop, to see other people, for entertainment and to enjoy life. Nobody is there watching over them and increasingly so now, nobody is going to come right away when they call for help in time of need, assuming they can stop fighting for their life long enough to call for help.

That’s why millions of Americans choose firearms for their protection in their homes and in public. They don’t have firearms to impose their will upon others, they do it to keep themselves and their families safe. They choose the best, most capable firearms they can afford and effectively use. This means modern semi-automatic pistols with standard capacity magazines on their person. This means modern semi-automatic rifles with standard capacity magazines in their homes. Why? Because criminals will always, ALWAYS be able to get their hands on the latest and greatest weaponry regardless of the gun laws. No gun control law has ever disarmed criminals, and none ever will. They only disarm their intended victims, making them an easy, soft target. 

But hey, you’ll probably be okay in public with your unloaded revolver or semi-automatic with a neutered magazine locked up and stored separately at home with your double barrel shotgun. 

Out in the real world our politicians have forgotten, firearms are used to defend and save lives every single day. A 2013 CDC (Centers for Disease Control) study found civilian defensive use of firearms outnumbered felonious use by a rate of 3 to 1, to the tune of 2.5 to 3 million uses per year. This is the average, everyday American protecting themselves and their families. Period. 

Will you ever see your gun control politician, lobbyist or activist elite taking the city mass transit, walking to work, stepping over the drug needles and human waste, trying not to get assaulted by the thugs and mentally ill, without their security teams in tow? Of course not. 

You see, they’re not completely anti-gun, they just want to have all the guns there to protect them, NOT you. You need to be disarmed, but they – through their always armed with the best defensive firearms known to man security teams – are not. If they’re not willing to live their life as a disarmed victim in waiting, why should you? 

For all you gun banning politicians, it’s time to stop lying to the people about gun control and just admit their safety means nothing to you.
