"[Name redacted] is accused of murdering nine worshippers[sic] at the historic Emanuel AME church in Charleston, S.C. President Obama called the shootings 'senseless murders' and suggested more gun control is needed in the wake of the tragedy."
"But in this violent nation of ours, there seems to be a disconnect between our Second Amendment 'right to keep and bear arms' and the number of mass killings in this country. Americans with guns kill thousands of fellow Americans each year. And remember, the right to bear arms is not unlimited and does not prohibit all regulation of either firearms or similar devices." ... |

Our nation was 'learning' a great deal from the citizens of Charleston, SC. At least until our POTUS, the BGI and 'the usual culprits' descended upon that fair city not to share its grief, but instead manipulate its mourning to their advantage.
So, hopefully, we - as a nation - will "learn" a great many things: 1) That craven politicians, domestic terrorists, racists, opportunists and scam artists will seize upon any event they can turn to advantage. 2) Our media outlets can relied upon to never, ever report anything remotely resembling the truth. 3) America's steadfast conservative, caring, generous nature and tradition of self-reliance are under concerted assault from multiple sources.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
