| A scathing letter written by a Marine veteran blasting a proposed ban on assault weapons has gone viral online. Cpl. Joshua Boston wrote the letter to U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat from California, who proposed the bill banning certain firearms and requiring gun owners to register their weapons. ´I am a Marine Corps veteran of eight years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one,´ he writes in the letter.

Cpl. thank you for your service to our country. And thank you for taking it to the ruling class in so simple a statement that even they should understand.

I believe several million Russians sent similar letters to Lenin. Wonder if the results will be any different? At least Lenin had an open mind.

#1, it isn´t a question of understanding. The LPs understand very well, that´s why they want to collect all the weapons - so they can do as they wish.

But how many of you will be willing to defend your rights when the time comes? If you´re not willing to put your life on the line to defend our freedoms, which is what it will take this time around, then don´t expect to keep those freedoms. The time our forefathers warned of is fast approaching. What are you going to do about it?

Our enemies abroad may try to destroy us, but they won´t invade us. Why?
America has the largest standing army in the world.
Even the Japanese knew that prior to WWII, which is why their only hope for defeating us was a surprise attack that would destroy our navy.
No way were they going to march from Los Angeles to Washington DC on foot.

Di-Fi knows that when the Ponzi SScheme crashes and the benefits stop, the 47% will be coming after those responsible, and it won´t be pretty for the Schmucky Schumer types.
Also, the 53% better be stockpiling, because the 47% will be cutting out the middleman and trying to take their "entitlements" straight from the source.

Poster #4 I don´t know if I would have the courage, but like so many, I like to think I would.
When I read articles like this concerning what this administration wants to do and is doing, this goes over and over in my mind; "Its time to take to the streets".
I don´t know where this is all heading, but it´s not good to think this way about our great country. I never imagined we would be in this spot.

They´re too chicken - that´s why they hide behind the rerwriting and reinterpreting of laws.

#22 makes an excellent point. I have never seen a lib willing to do his own fighting. They will gladly send the law or the military, but when it comes time to man the battlements themselves they shrink away and whimper. That may be their Achilles heel. We should explore ways to exploit it.

If NØbama declared Martial Law tomorrow and ordered the military and police to confiscate weapons from law abiding citizens, I firmly believe they would resoundingly refuse that order.
That is why NØbama will secretly start forming his ´´Civilian Defense Militia´´, with their trademark brown shirts. They will be made up of members of the New Black Panthers, La Raza, and assorted union thugs (who lost their jobs due to NØbamanomics). They will be outfitted with the finest of body armor and highest tech weapons that our tax dollars can afford.
When NØbama gives the order, expect groups of 25 or so of these Civilian Defense Militia members to come crashing through your door and windows, hold your wife and kids at gunpoint, and give you one minute to turn in every weapon and piece of ammo that you own. If you can´t turn them in, or claim that they were ´´stolen´´, then you are a terrorist and your family is dead. They will make sure and make you watch your family die before they haul you away for ´´interogation´´.
I´m sure NØbama is talking to his Commie buddies in the Chinese government and the old KGB and Stasi forces for pointers...

#22 is right- the left are physical and moral cowards and would never themselves attempt to disarm is. They will send their easily duped minions and those who put more importance on a paycheck and/or pension than their rights. If it comes to confiscation, any military member or police officer who takes part is a traitor.

I sincerely hope that the Congress does not pass any laws restricting firearms any more than they are now. If they try to confiscate guns, the possibilities for violence are high. This is not good, and let us pray that we are able to stop this push for more gun restrictions in the normal, civil way in Congress.

We must resist all false arguments about what is ´needed´ for self defense of hunting.
Liberals register shock and disbelief at the notion that the 2nd Amd. exists exclusively as an indictment of all governments for all time as being rapacious and malignant and often in need of active trimming by all means including military.

The Second Amendment´s purpose wasn´t to enable, ´´hunting!´´ The Founders certainly did not secure any of the Bill of Rights for the purposes of entertainment & hobbies for American citizens, but rather for freedom itsdelf! They made that very clear in their writings and in the way they lived their lives. Each of the ten Bill of Rights were secured to protect themselves as well as future generations of American citizens from the same central-planning, ´one-size fits all,´ and outrageous TAXATION tyrannies which had been experienced by the Founders themselves under BIG Governmental tyranny by a distant King.
...As Mark Levin´s best seller illustrates, the choice for voters is the same now as it has always been which is between, ´´Liberty and Tyranny.´´ Americans have always cherished the principles which secure each individual freedom´s which rely upon equal respect for Life & Liberty secured by the U.S. Constitution. We The People dare not risk cavalierly tossing aside those temeless & proved principles secured for each of us equally in the U.S.A. Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

All this is just posturing and ‘Prepping the Battle Field’ by the Fascists in DC. This is a coordinated effort with no wasted or counterproductive moves.
Any astute student of Saul Alinsky would be able to scribe it all out for us including probable time lines.
They will continue to antagonize us to force reactions that will cause a majority of voters to demand ‘Sensible Gun Regulations’ including total registration. Obviously, confiscation would begin soon after.
Congress will be swept up and the Robert’s Court will make extremely dumb 5/4 decisions and the Second Amendment will be reinterpreted into meaningless words.
No amendment will be needed to repeal it. It will just go the way of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments and simply become an historical artifact.
It will all be done by Executive Order and agency regulations. No grand national debate or fiery speeches in Congress, just a simple whimpering death.
And the result:
Life in America will make the history of Northern Ireland look like a Sunday picnic that went bad. And the world will follow us into darkness and mankind will be controlled by Fascists and Islamist.
It won’t happen with this Congress but those from Chicago are moving the groundwork forward.
Remember, ‘Never let a good crisis go to waste’.
Meanwhile I continue to invest in precious metals, brass and lead, and if need be, I’ll crawl through urine soaked broken glass to make my presence known when the ‘ball goes up’.
Why? Because I am a citizen and not a subject.
Just keep in mind:
One thousand Independent Operators could bring this country to its economic knees. Just think what ten million could accomplish!
Well, I guess I’ll sit down with an adult beverage and wait for the knock on the door……..

Years later it was reported that she no longer had her permit. Wheather she had ever carried, I don’t recall any reports to that effect.

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

"I don´t understand it," the Arizona Republican said on Sunday of the threat coming from Sen. Rand Paul,Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee and nine other Republicans. "The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” "What are we afraid of? ...

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air.

On Friday, Sean Hannity brought Pat Smith, mother of the late Sean Smith, on his radio program. The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Gluten-free diets are all the rage, but they can be dangerous if not done right. What is gluten? It´s the spongy complex of proteins, found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley, that gives elasticity to dough and allows it to rise. When flour is moistened and either kneaded or mixed into dough, gluten molecules form an elastic, microscopic latticework that traps the carbon dioxide produced when yeast ferments, causing dough to inflate like a hot air balloon. Baking hardens the gluten, which helps the finished product keep its shape. Wheat — and gluten — is ubiquitous in the American diet.

Newtown killer Adam Lanza may have launched his murder spree at Sandy Hook Elementary School as an “act of revenge,” the Daily News has learned. A close friend of Lanza’s mother told The News that the troubled boy was a target of relentless bullying when he attended the Connecticut school years ago. “I think Adam felt betrayed by the school and this was his act of revenge,” said Marvin LaFontaine, a friend of Nancy Lanza’s. “Nancy told me he was being picked on at school. That they were just torturing him.” Source and text corrected by Staff.
