"Experience
hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those
entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted
it into tyranny."
- Thomas Jefferson
In
May, President Obama gave the commencement address to the at
graduates at Ohio State University. In that address, he said1
‘‘Unfortunately,
you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government
as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the
root of all our problems,’’ Obama told the crowd at the Ohio
State commencement ceremony, which totaled almost 60,000 people.
‘‘They’ll warn that tyranny is always lurking just around the
corner. You should reject these voices.’’
Is
that right? Should you fear our government? Are these warnings the
rantings of a few right-wing radicals, or is government tyranny truly
creeping up on us? First, watch THIS
VIDEO. Then
read on.
We
are a country of laws and those laws are centered around our
constitution. It is that document, to the exclusion of all others
that make us who we are as a country.
The
rights to freedom of religion, of the press, to assemble and to
redress grievances.
The
right to keep and bear arms.
Freedom
from unreasonable search and seizure.
From
incriminating yourself.
The
right to a speedy trial. To a trial by jury and to have a reasonable
bail set and from cruel and from unusual punishment.
It
has been said about the first ten amendments to our constitution (our
Bill of Rights
2) that the First Amendment is the basis for all of our
freedoms and the Second Amendment is there to insure that the
government doesn't forget about or attempt to deny us the other nine.
So are they under attack? Are our rights as people and citizens at
risk?
Let's
start with your freedom of religion3;
that's of, not from.
This
was one of the primary reasons for the establishment of our country
and yet:
Even
religious employers now have to hire people who disagree and/or
violate the employer's religious beliefs.
Catholic
employers now have to provide abortion coverage which violates the
basic tenants of their beliefs.
Lawsuits
have been brought to stop astronauts from praying in outer space and
to take “in God we trust” from our currency
Our
president even deliberately refuses to say “endowed by their
Creator” when quoting the Declaration of Independence4.
Or
let's talk about freedom of speech5.
Any speech that seems to anger someone; the actual basis of "Free
Speech"(who
complains about speech they agree with?) is
now persecuted.
Under
the guise of reducing copyright infringement two bills currently
before congress would, if passed "give
the U.S. government the ability to shut down literally millions of
websites"6.
Prayers
are currently being censored at military funerals7.
To me, this is one of the most disturbing things I have ever heard
this or any government be accused of.
Then
there is the very recent attack on the freedom of the press8.
Just a few days ago it was revealed that the Obama administration
secretly got the phone records of 20 phone lines from the Associated
Press. Next they went after James Rosen, a Fox News reporter, going
so far as to label him a "possible
'co-conspirator' in a criminal investigation"9.
These
outrageous attacks on our basic freedoms are only the most recent by
Obama and his thugs.
And
now there is the all-out assault and condemnation of our Right to
Bear Arms. This was specifically what Obama was referring to in his "
tyranny
is always lurking just around the corner"
comments. Many left-wingers are trying to say that the Second
Amendment isn't needed any more. People say that since we have the
police and military, the people don't need guns.
In
a talk about proposing gun bans, Obama said that since we elected the
government, we needn't fear them. Did you vote for David Axelrod and
Eric Holder? How about anyone in the IRS? I certainly didn't. And;
Hey; Obama!
Don't forget that over 49% of the people DIDN'T
vote for you.
So
do we need guns to protect ourselves from the federal government?
Let's face it, since the dawn of civilization, if a government wants
to oppress and suppress its citizens, the first thing it has to do is
disarm the people. Even Hitler didn't try to invade countries where
the population was armed. He knew he would fail. We need guns to
repel any invaders and to fight all enemies from without and within.
An armed citizenry is the only deterrent to tyranny. Look at history.
If you believe that the American government won't try to set up a
dictatorship once we the people are disarmed and at their mercy, you
are living in a fantasy world.
Do
we the people need to protect our right to keep and bear arms at any
cost? Absolutely. The second amendment is the only thing allowing us
to keep the first and third through tenth. Read the papers. Watch the
news. Our very survival as a society is at stake.
At least that's my
opinion. What's yours?
