Fred Hiatt edits the Washington Post editorial page. He wrote about a “gun free society”. He tried to repackage his gun grab and call it “gun prohibition”. He wrapped his anti-rights bigotry in terms of a “mass buyback”. I immediately noticed Fred’s distortion about violence in the United States.
Fred wants President Barack Obama to issue executive orders and make gun owners into criminals. You don’t use executive orders to change a culture; you use executive orders to disarm the US by force. Fred wants guns to protect Obama’s kids with guns, but not to protect yours.
Let’s take Fred’s ideas to their logical conclusion and look at the gun confiscation he wants. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
