"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." - Benjamin Franklin;
"And when politicians find that honor and character matter less than buying votes and a constituency, that too will herald the end of the Constitution. When that happens we must work tirelessly to change their minds, or their occupation!" - Hoping The Blind Will See

Are All Good Soldiers At Risk? What About Us?

I've asked myself why it took a police officer, stationed outside Ft Hood, who had to drive onto the base, locate the area of the Nidal Hasan shooting rampage, locate Hasan and then take him out of commission before one of our military personnel who were right there could do so. Now I know!

Did you know that our military men and woman are banned from carrying the weapons they are trained and trusted to use in the heat of combat, while on military bases?. President Clinton authored this absurd policy back in 1993 when he declared all military bases “Gun Free Zones.” And George Bush never saw fit to change it, and Barack Obama has embraced it as well. Why is that? Had our military been allowed to carry weapons, there may have been two or three dead - but at least one of them would have been Nidal Hasan.

But based upon more current events, perhaps something even more sinister is at hand. Given the assault on our Constitutional Rights by the progressives (of which I believe each of the past three presidents are), and considering the Obama fast-track to socialism, isn't it interesting to know that we don't have a military force who can defend us and our Constitution if the need arises? Maybe we've already got that "civilian security force as well equipped and as strong as our military" that Obama was touting earlier this year because our military doesn't have weapons. Comforting, isn't it?

Hmmm, what's up with that? Start thinking outside the norm folks!

Wake Up America!

  2. I agree, how moronic was that policy Clinton had? And that Bush and Obama have embraced. Could you imagine that policy during the revolution? The Civil War? The Indian Wars? God help us!

    It's so very sad that the government prevents law abiding Americans, and in this case, patriotic soldiers, from defending themselves. How idiotic!
