This is a page dedicated to not being politically correct. I make no apologies. I feel there is way too much of that today. If you are easily offended, do not read this "Blog". It is full of political and social observations and comments. I am in my own way, attempting to educate all who want to know how our government works and how we can regain control so we can remain a government that is "Of The People, By the People, and For the People.

THE IDEA OF PULLING OUT OF IRAQ

I'll make this short and sweet............It is simple, if we leave Iraq and allow it to fall back into tyranny and upheaval, the deaths of ALL our fallen there will be for naught and will have been nullified and in vain. Pretty simple stuff. I dare anyone to disagree with that. If you don't understand that fact, then you have a lot to learn and are not very bright, nor are you a patriot in my book. Prior to and after my retirement, I have not talked to 1 person who has deployed there who did not say that we should not be there. We are doing great things there and the mainstream media is not reporting honestly and in an unbiased manner. In short, mainstream news lies and distorts the truth to suit their motives.

VOTER FRAUD AND INTIMIDATION

I would hate to believe that any Presidential Candidate would approve of this type of behavior from any if their constituency. At least publicly..........

PALIN, OBAMA AND SECURITY CLEARANCES

Did you know that Alaska is the only state in the Union that has a PERMANENT active duty Air National Guard Squadron? You ask, What does that have too do with this election? Well here's the deal....The Air Guard Squadron is tasked with the Ballistic Missile Defense System that is in place in the Fairbanks area. Now, as the State of Alaska Commander and Chief, she has had a pretty high security clearance granted to her and she is regularly briefed on the current terrorist threats as well as all other items she would need to know under her scope of responsibility as Governor. Now to Mr. Obama. Due to his dubious and cloudy background, he does not automatically qualify for a security clearance. In order to get a security clearance, he will have to receive some sort of special dispensation from the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) in order to be briefed. You ask, "How the hell would you know that"? Well, the last 4 years of my military service, I was a Security Manager and I was responsible for personnels security clearances. I worked within the Adjudication System and know how the awarding of security clearances works without any doubts. In short, he does not qualify for a high level security clearance.

HISTORY OF GUN OWNERSHIP

In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control.
From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend
themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
------------------------------
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917,

Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a
total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend
themselves were rounded up and exterminated
------------------------------
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20
million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were
rounded up and exterminated.
----------------------------
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981,

It has now been some time since gun owners in Australia were
forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be
destroyed by their own government, a program costing
Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year
results are now in:
Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent
Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44
percent)!
In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are
now up 300 percent. Note that whilethe law-abiding citizens turned
them in, thecriminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!

It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too!

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady
decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically
upward in the past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that
their prey is unarmed.

There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and
assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to
explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort
and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of
guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above
prove it.

You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear
politicians disseminating this information.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property
and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding
citizens.

Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!

The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please
remind him of this history lesson.

With Guns...........We Are 'Citizens'.
Without Them........We Are 'Subjects'.

During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because
they knew most Americans were ARMED !

Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor
had attended Harvard U 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S.
1925-28. Most of our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor & our Army
had been deprived of funding & was ill prepared to defend the country.

It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up
the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of the U. S. Mainland, his
reply was that he had lived in the U.
S. & knew that almost all households had guns.

If you value your freedom, Please spread this anti-gun control
message to all your friends!
