Rep. John Lewis: ´The British are not
coming. We don´t need all these guns´

Daily Caller, by Jeff Poor

Original Article

Posted By:CarrotFarmer87, 12/19/2012 5:21:50 PM

On Wednesday’s broadcast of “Andrea Mitchell Reports” on MSNBC, Georgia Democratic Rep. John Lewis invoked the civil rights movement to rally support for increased gun control legislation. “Well, now is the time to act,” Lewis said. “It’s not a time for a commission, or more studies. It is time for action. It reminded me of another period, 1968, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated. Robert Kennedy was assassinated. We can go back to 1963, when Medgar Evers was assassinated. We don’t need more weapons of mass destruction. Nothing saddened me more than last Friday.

Comments:
Someone really needs a history lesson. The guns are the reason they aren´t coming, for now...

King George wasn´t the only one with a tyrannical government.
Americans need to be vigilant with the current government.
The first and second amendments are under attack right now, Obamacare is UNconstitutional, no matter what John Roberts has to say.
We have a dysfunctional government.

So is John Lewis in favor of the police, in riot gear, forcibly disarming black gang members with their illegal guns? Is is this just against white people with legally owned guns?

The threat is from within. The Constitution was written to protect us from both foreign and domestic threats.

Nowadays, the guns aren´t for the Brits. They´re for protection from folks like you Johnny.

"When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

Lewis (once again) makes a great case for term limits.

YOU have hit the BULLSEYE Award #4...you are right on spot. And any government official that tries to dismantal the constitution in any way or form falls right into the catagory of the Brits back then in my book. Against ALL enemies foriegn AND DOMESTIC!

The colonies needed the guns to rid themselves of a tyrannical government who was imposing laws and taxes without the consent of the governed.

There´s a lesson there somewhere!

Lewis is proof you don´t have to be smart to get elected into Congress. He is nothing more than a Sharpton/Jackson race hustler and he makes a fool of himself every time he opens his mouth. This being NO exception.

From now on I think I´ll respond to each and every single asinine opinion, comment, proposal, rant, and general utterance from the lunatic left with a short expletive instead of an intelligent and thoughtful dialog.
After all, that´s all it´s worth and they aren´t interested in hearing anything intelligent or engage in a real discussion in the first place.

Okay, you first. Get rid of your guns, Rep. Lewis, and disarm the Capitol Police. Once you see how that goes, you can make a judgment.

John Lewis from GA - and I now have a gun to protect myself from all your ´kind´ that are robbing and thieving and killing in my county. The county turned minority, and with that, came all the crime and scum.

What used to be the top 2 highschools in the entire state, now don´t even rate. All because of minority infestation.

Sorry, but I grow more weary and tired of John Lewis´s kind spewing stuff all the time.

Get over it! Comments like these from Lewis make me despise them more.

Lewis meets the two requirements for office that his constituents look for.

1. He is a democrat
2. He´s black

Thats it ........

Intelligence is not required. Which defines at least half the democrat party

Actually, ´´Freedom Isn´t ´Free,´´ Rep. Lewis, but must always be protected & defended! -Remember your oath of office?! This is a country of laws based upon Constitutional principles for securing & maintaining Life and Liberty. The Founders in their Wisdom secured the Bill of Rights for each INDIVIDUAL American. Self defense is basic for each individual´s freedom. ...Look it up!

Since the Civil War ended in 1865, why does Lewis´s dem party, currently led by 0bama, use rhetoric more suited to at least 150 years ago than in the here-and-now twenty-first century?!! ...What´s up with THAT, Rep. Lewis? The dems & 0bama preach, ´´FORWARD,´´ but they seem stuck in history from ages past. Sometimes 0bama gets up to the ´30s and all that union rhetoric, but that is about as recent as he ever gets. mmm mmm mmm

When bad things happen the liberal response is always to tax, ban, or regulate. Their hope is that people will be too heartbroken to notice they´re more poor, less free, and increasingly burdened with a behemoth government that still can´t keep bad things from happening.

No, the Brits learned their lesson, but the SEIU, New Black Panthers, Occupier scum and other leftist groups advocating and inciting violence against us may be a different matter entirely. We see it and hear it every day.

This is the liar who claimed protesters called him names when they did not. Besides being an outright liar, he is an oath breaker who should be impeached for not defending the constitution. Too bad lying and taking an oath aren´t what they used to be, but that is how progressives want it.

Two questions for Rep. Lewis:

2) How can you reconcile your desire to throw out the Constitution with your sworn oath of office to defend that Constitution?

Radio host Dennis Miller and National Review columnist Mark Steyn considered Thursday the possible outcomes if the United States continues down the path of socialism. If socialism became the prevailing governing philosophy, Miller speculated, escaping it wouldn’t require a move to the Australian outback. Instead he suggested heading for the state of Texas, because it would be the first place to push back against it. “If I ever do flee, don’t think fleeing has to involve you going over to Alice Springs or something,” Miller said. “I’m going to Texas because that’ll be the first place that pushes

Conservative radio talker Mark Levin appears to have touched off the investigation into Internal Revenue Service targeting of conservative political groups back in March 2012. In a letter last year on behalf of the Landmark Legal Foundation, an organization he heads, Levin requested an investigation into what he called “misconduct.” On Friday, the Internal Revenue Service revealed that it had improperly targeted conservative groups for audits during the 2012 election. During a conference call, Lois Lerner, the IRS’s director of exempt organizations, explained that IRS staffers selected groups that

At the National Rifle Association Convention in Houston on Friday, conservative talker Mark Levin told attendees that the Bill or Rights were “under attack” from progressives in Washington, D.C. “The forces that are gathering now in Washington and in the states to destroy our Second Amendment right are ominous,” Levin the author of “Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America,” said. “They’re not focused on criminals. They’re not focused on mass murderers. They’re focused on ‘we the people.’ The fact of the matter is these are very, very perilous times. The federal government is becoming increasingly powerful.

Over the past four months, former Florida Republican Rep.

On more than one occasion over the past month, Scarborough has accused NRA-loyal Republicans of putting the interests of “rapists” ahead of other Americans. “I can’t believe those Republicans are going to allow the entire Republican Party to be the party that basically put rapists’ rights over parents’ rights to

On his Tuesday program, “The O’Reilly Factor” host Bill O’Reilly took on Nihad Awad, the founder and executive director of the controversial pro-Muslim group the Council on American-Islamic Relations. O’Reilly asked Awad to explain why it was incorrect to take aim at extremist elements in Islam in aftermath of last week’s Boston bombing, particularly since there are indications that Islam was the inspiration for the suspects’ actions. Awad denied that sentiment was representative of Muslims. “First of all, thank you for having me on the show again,” Awad said. “I really appreciate it because it’s important to bring

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

Former Democratic National committee chairman Howard Dean considers the controversy over Benghazi a “joke” and “silly.” “Benghazi is a laughable joke,” Dean proclaimed twice in a discussion with Republican National Committee communications chairman Sean Spicer last week. “With all due respect, governor, when four Americans die serving this country, that’s not a joke, sir,” Spicer responded. “Oh, stop it,” said Dean. The former Democratic presidential candidate also said that there were “no serious questions being asked about Benghazi” and brushed it off as an effort by Republicans to score political points.

U.S. Sen. John McCain bucked the party line coming from many of his fellow conservatives this morning, saying suggestions that compare the trio of scandals gripping the White House to Watergate are “overreaching.” “I think it’s overreaching. We need a full and complete investigation and then we will decide the dimensions of it,” said McCain while campaigning for Republican Senate candidate Gabriel Gomez in Dorchester. “It is terrible but we have to have a full investigation before we leap to conclusions.” The maverick’s caution is a sharp contrast to the response of many Republicans
