You no doubt caught all or part of Gabby Gifford’s testimony before the Senate’s hearing on gun violence – whether you wanted to or not – since all the networks enthusiastically covered it. Gun control advocates eagerly exploited what was an understandably emotional situation to advance their agenda, a favorite leftist ploy.
But chances are you didn’t hear a peep from Henson Ong’s testimony at a Hartford, CT public hearing on January 28th ~
Americans have gotten so complacent, intellectually lazy and historically ignorant that we must be reminded of the truth by a patriot who wasn’t even born here!
In your (America’s) past, you did not have mass school shootings…
What changed?…
It was not the availability of guns…
What changed was social decay.
But the Left will never acknowledge that. Especially, since it’s their misguided social engineering policies that have caused the decay.
“My excellent colleagues have forgotten these bitter lessons of history.
The prospect of tyranny may not grab the headlines the way vivid stories
of gun crime usually do. But few saw the Third Reich coming until it was
too late. The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision,
one designed only for those exceptionally rare circumstances
when all other rights have failed. A free people can only
afford to make this mistake once.”
~ Judge Alex Kozinski in his dissent on the case of Silveira v. Lockye in 2002 ~
