IMPOSTURE!
It is now 80 days since President Obama pretended to sign 23 executive orders on the destruction of gun rights. I have asked the question several times. Does there exist these stealth executive orders that the president is deliberately hiding from the people, or was it all just an act? For sure, nothing about executive orders dealing with gun rights is posted on the White House website.
He Lies!
Jacob Sullum at Reason.com, writes about four things that President Obama said in his address in Colorado the other day that breeds “mistrust” in the American people over his efforts to reduce Second Amendment gun ownership rights. Listed below are the summary of his four ideas. Please follow the link and read more of his explanations. I will provide my own commentary.
It is my opinion that Mr. Sullum left a fifth item off his list. I will add it below the following four items.
1. He conflates a failed background check with stopping a criminal from obtaining a gun.
I believe it was the Virginia Tech killer who passed his background check just fine. But facts aren’t important when a tyrannical agenda is in motion.
2. He falsely equates “assault weapons” with military guns.
Yesterday I posted a story of how the President, in a speech, told attendees that the Sandy Hook killer used a “fully automatic” weapon to kill 26 people. My questions about this statement were wanting to know if the President is too ignorant to know the difference between a “fully automatic” and a semi-automatic, a bolt action, lever action, revolver, pump, etc.; The second question was whether the President knows this information and is only attempting to embellish and incite anyone willing to listen in order to fulfill his despotic ambitions; Or, that the President knew Adam Lanza used an automatic weapon and he’s been keeping it from the people.
3. He says there is no logical connection between “universal background checks” and gun registration.
I have never and will never obtain a permit to carry a weapon because it is a violation of my Second Amendment rights. Obtaining a permit is nothing more than gun registration. Universal background checks accomplishes the same thing and does nothing to curb violence and protect children. The ignorance here is that people are made to believe that a criminal, intent on killing someone, will not do it because they have to undergo a background check. It’s like saying a car thief won’t steal a car because they don’t have a valid driver’s license.
4. He pooh-poohs the idea that there could ever be anything adversarial about the relationship between Americans and their government.
And this is the most tell-tailing statement any would-be despot would make. Obama is on record as stating that the Founding Fathers got it all wrong because they put restrictions on government. Since taking office, this President has done more than his share to tear down those restrictions on government and put all the power into his own hands. And this same President wants to declare that government is our friend and we should, without question, follow him over the cliff? No thank you.
This is where I will add number five.
5. The President is a liar.
Not really unlike the boy who cried wolf, President Obama is a notorious liar. Nothing that comes from his mouth can and should be believed. He has made his own bed and he should lay in it. No person can spend every waking minute of their presidential term making and breaking promises to the degree this man has and expect that the people of the United States would trust him.
This may be one of the reasons this President feels the need to circumvent the legislative process established in our country by using executive order abuses because he fails miserably in leading the people of this country due to his deliberate and excessive lying.
Biased News Reporting
What else is new, right? CBS announced that it will be airing a 60-Minutes program in which, “Some of the parents and family of the 26 children and adults killed in the mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., tell Scott Pelley their mission for gun control will last throughout their lifetimes.”
Who can blame the parents for trying to do something, even if they are being misled and/or misguided. This isn’t the issue here. The real issue is that CBS’s 60-Minutes have “some” of the parents and in the leaked portion of the upcoming show, the talk is all in favor of opposition to gun rights. I’m wondering if the full broadcast will include some of the parents who disagree with this assault on the Second Amendment, and/or would like to see more of a focus and assault on the real root of violence, what causes it and how to correct it?
UN Gun Treaty and One World Government
It really should come as no surprise that the United States, under the direction of President Obama, has signed on to the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. For some, it still comes as a surprise that the U.S. Senate must ratify that treaty. Previously, in a resolution voted on in the Senate, by a 53-46 vote, it resolved that it would not vote to approve a United Nations gun control treaty. I believe that margin of difference remains safe for now, as a two-thirds majority vote is required.
However, this should not deter people from contacting their Senators to make sure they oppose this treaty. In addition, Americans should familiarize themselves well with this treaty that Obama has signed, because when the United States falls into the control of a One World Government, indications being it will be administered by the United Nations, this treaty should give us an indication as to how guns will be control and confiscated by that power.
