While heroes
in Las Vegas were still trying to rescue victims and comfort the survivors and
the families of those who were lost, the American left was already turning the
massacre into a political movement for more gun control. Hillary Clinton was
one of the first to tweet out a call for limitations on the Second Amendment,
and to attack the NRA, but that is not surprising since her ego is making her
desperate to prove that she is not irrelevant.
However, she was quickly followed by
the Hollywood elite, who are protected by their own personally armed body
guards, the leaders of the Democrat party, and the far left media. They all
seem to be calling for the same things, universal background checks, the
outlawing of so-called assault weapons, which most of them can’t even define,
and the closing of the so-called gun show loopholes that they also can’t
define.
They are desperate to convince the
majority of the American people to believe such proposals are reasonable and
will actually prevent gun crimes and mass shootings. It has already been proven
in cities like Chicago and States like California that they don’t work, but
that is beside the point for the left, because these regulations are not the
end game. They are just the beginning and they are following the track of Nazi
Germany and other totalitarian dictatorships.
In the late 1920s the Weimer
Republic ordered that all private owned firearms be registered with the
government. However, by the early 1930’s the government recognized that it had
made a terrible mistake. While law abiding Germans were complying with the law
and registering their firearms, the members of the violence prone groups like
the communists and Nazis were not. The government took steps to protect the
records from being made public, but it was too late. A few years later when
Adolf Hitler took control the list of registered gun owners were used to disarm
the German people to prevent resistance to the Nazis.
It has become obvious over the last
few decades that for years the ultimate goal of the leftists in this country is
to abolish the Constitution and all of the rights that it contains and turn our
country into a socialist or communist state. In such a country the elites are
in control of every aspect of the lives of the rest of us and we will
essentially be their slaves. However, they have a problem because is the same
country that once consisted of 13 individual colonies under British domination.
When the British decided to forcefully continue to get the colonists to submit
to its will it moved to disarm the colonists by seizing the weapons stored at
Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts.
That did not end well for the
British and thus the Second Amendment to the Constitution was ultimately
adopted. Now the leftists in this country are faced with a major problem. In
order to oppress the American people they must first disarm us. In order to
accomplish that they must first be able to identify the Americans who legally
own firearms. Then they must find people who will do their dirty work.
It won’t be
the members of the U.S. military, military veterans, or most local police and
sheriff’s deputies. They also cannot rely on the campus snowflakes they have
created who just want the government to take care of them, or the liberal
college professors or Hollywood and corporate elites. While they certainly
agree with the ultimate goal they are certainly not going to risk their own
lives to bring it about.
They will instead have to rely on
the criminal elements in this country that will work as their paid mercenaries.
This will include violent gang members like those in MS-13 who are being
actively protected by the liberals that control sanctuary cities, counties, and
even states. They will also rely on members of violent groups like Black Lives
Matter and ANTIFA that are committed to destroying America. If all else fails
they will rely on foreign mercenaries who will come from places like Syria,
Libya, or Iran.
I chronical
this in my popular patriotic novel “The Rag” where I show what happens when the
government starts to limit constitutional rights including the right to keep
and bear arms. I also write about how the American people ultimately resist. I
apparently have struck a nerve with the left because they initially launched an
all-out assault of negative comments on Amazon. However, the liberals at Amazon
soon took over the attack.
First Amazon decided to remove the
novel as an e-book, and all of my other books claiming that since my name is
the same as the mystery writer, and therefore is a copy write violation. That
is totally bogus, because individual names cannot be copywrited. Then they
began to systematically remove the most favorable reviews of the novel.
However, the censorship on the left
that millions of Americans own firearms and most will not willingly surrender
them, and if necessary will use them to fight to protect their freedom.
