You wouldn’t want to scare the Sheeple…

Found at The War on Guns

*shakes head in disgust*


“It turns out the Goshen man in his 20s, whom police didn’t identify, is on leave from the Army Rangers and was training for his physical fitness test. The “rifle” was made of rubber…

Before starting his cross-town jog, the man called Goshen Town Police and told them what he would be doing, Jakubczyk said. But once he crossed into Blooming Grove, the calls started coming in and police had no answers for frightened residents.”

So the automatic assumption is the guy was up to no good. When did the mere sight of a gun in public start to send the sheeple into a panic and give them a case of the dry heaves? There was a time in this country where people saw guns everyday, and noone thought they were in any danger.

Could it be that the only time people see a gun anymore, is in a movie or on TV, and the person holding it is a criminal or a cop? Somehow, without it actually being declared so, in spirit, we’ve already disarmed the population.

After all, why would anyone want a gun, unless they were a criminal, a hunter or a cop? Right?

*sigh*

I suppose the only reason noone has called the cops on me yet is because they can’t see my gun. I carry it concealed all the time. If I didn’t I wonder how different the people I interact with everyday would react?

Unfortunately, I think I already know the answer.

Anonymous has left the same message on 2 posts on my site, and they were not related to the post at hand. This leads me to believe (she) is the site owner of Violent Planet and spamming pro-gun blog comments for attention and site traffic–and you’ll note that site does not allow comments.

Thanks for the heads up David, I have deleted the comment until I have proof that it is legitimate.

I did check out the site they linked and it’s nothing I want to be associated with.

didn’t catch the comment, but if it’s the one I’m thinking of, it needs serious mental healthcare…
supports the REAL ID act, hates guns, loves michael moore and cuba.

Apparently thinks that America was a perfect place until Bush stole the election and that by singing kum-by-ya around the campfire with bluehelmets, dictators, and whales we can manage to get the socialist utopia (that never existed outside drug induced dreams of madmen) back.

Annnnyway. As for the rubber gun. There WAS a time when parents taught their kids, and even about guns too. Those times had less violent crime, and less murder, and less blame-America-first whale hugging stoned out of their mind hanging out with dictator anti-freedom projecting hoplophobes. Heeeeey, I think I’m starting to see a connection here.

That was the one…

I agree, and I am teaching my kids about guns. It’s a shame that lots of parents have shirked their responibility to the state, and the state isn’t doing too great a job.

I believe if people were exposed to more responsible gun owners carrying openly, it would soon become commonplace and would no longer draw attention.

There was a time when guns were all around us and noone thought anything of it.

Maybe I was born a century too late… *sigh*
