Then Obama blamed guns, which is like blaming forks for the obesity epidemic.
This administration could not run a church bake sale. It spent $2.1 billion on an unworkable Obamacare website, but somehow it wants to convince you that having one more technical gun law on the books would have kept this from happening. Keep in mind, these folks can't even keep terrorists on the "no-fly list" from legally buying guns. And the "G-hottie" terrorist wife got into our country by giving a false address on her visa. |

"these folks can't even keep terrorists on the 'no-fly list' from legally buying guns."
A misleading criticism. Apparently it has dawned on practically no one that doing so would facially violate 5th Amendment due process protections.
Without due process resulting in either a conviction or adjudication of mental incompetence, no fundamental right can be denied. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
