Coulter: Guns don’t kill people, mentally ill do

Ann Coulter  "Seung-Hui Cho, who committed the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007, had been diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder as a child and placed under treatment.
"But Virginia Tech was prohibited from being told about Cho’s mental health problems because of federal privacy laws.
"At college, Cho engaged in behavior even more bizarre than the average college student. He stalked three women and, at one point, went totally silent, refusing to speak even to his roommates. He was involuntarily committed to a mental institution for one night and then unaccountably unleashed on the public, whereupon he proceeded to engage in the deadliest mass shooting by an individual in U.S. history.
"The 2011 Tucson, Ariz., shopping mall shooter, Jared Loughner, was so obviously disturbed that if he’d stayed in Pima Community College long enough to make the yearbook, he would have been named “Most Likely to Commit Mass Murder.” "

" “I’m told Sen. Rand Paul will introduce language within hours, within hours, to call for the nullification and prohibition of funding for the president’s executive actions announced today and possibly even using the federal courts to nullify and defund some of the things that he plans on doing,” Bolling said."

 Bob Schieffer Likens Obama 'Taking on the Gun Lobby' to Hunt for Bin Laden,'Defeating the Nazis'  "This is a turning point in this country, and the President is going to have to do more than just make a speech about it. This is one of the best speeches I've ever heard him deliver, but it's going to take more than that from the White House. He's going to have to get his hands dirty. He's going to have to get in there and – and work this problem until he gets it done. But unless we figure out a way to make sure that something like Newtown never happens again, we're not the country that we once were. I think we still are. I think there's hope. I think something's going to happen here."  Emphases in the original.

Scaring People To Debt

Hope n' Change

"Forgetting his promise to use "words that heal rather than words that wound," Barack Obama held a news conference Monday to call Republicans "baby-raping terrorists" and "syphilitic(sp) whores gulping the pus of the evil rich."
" Okay, those weren't his exact words - but his meaning was clear enough. The president declared that he wouldn't even consider spending cuts in debt ceiling negotiations with the vile Republicans who are "holding a gun at the head of Americans" and "demanding ransom."
" He then went on to say that the only reason that the GOP is seeking deficit reduction is that they're ideologically opposed to "senior citizens (having) decent health care," "kids in poverty (getting) enough to eat," and "medical research." The bastards probably make smoothies out of kittens, too."

Liberal WashPost Columnist Milloy Notes How Guns Helped Civil Rights Movement Stave Off KKK

Newsbusters " Liberal Washington Post columnist Courtland Milloy is no stranger to NewsBusters criticism, but today he merits positive attention for going against the liberal grain on a policy issue: gun control."
When Charles “Chuck” Hicks does the Martin Luther King Jr. Day peace and freedom walks Saturday, he’ll also be taking a step for what the National Rifle Association has dubbed “National Rifle Appreciation Day.” That’s because Hicks is the son of Robert Hicks, a prominent leader of the legendary Deacons for Defense and Justice — an organization of black men in Louisiana who used shotguns and rifles to repel attacks by white vigilantes during the 1960s.
“The Klan would drive through our neighborhood shooting at us, shooting into our homes,” recalled Hicks, 66, who grew up in Bogalusa, La., and has been a civil rights activist in the District for more than 35 years. “The black men in the community wouldn’t stand for it. You shoot at us, we shoot back at you. I’m convinced that without our guns, my family and many other black people would not be alive today.”
As one of the organizers for the weekend’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day activities, Hicks’s pro-gun stance may seem like something of an anomaly. But even though King may best be remembered for his philosophy of nonviolent protest, the fact is that black civil rights activists in many small towns throughout the South carried guns or received protection from groups like the Deacons for Defense and Justice.  Read more:

Guns, propaganda, children and Obama UPDATED

Neal Boortz; Obama Makes His Move On Guns  "Chief propagandist Jay Carney said yesterday in his White House press briefing that “if even one child’s life can be saved by the actions we take here in Washington, we must take those actions.”  How will their actions help save the life of Melinda Herman’s 9 year old twins (Audio below), hiding in a crawl space as a predator searches their house looking for them?  Lives will NOT be saved by the antics in Washington today, political careers will be."

 Dramatic 911 call released in home intruder shooting  Consider what might have happened if Melinda was not armed. Take note of when the police arrived at the house: long after the bleeding invader had driven away.

Using Children As Propaganda Tools  "Shameless.  But then that’s Obama.  When he makes his gun control desires known today Obama is going to surround himself with children.  Obama says that these are children who wrote him letters after the Sandy Hook shooting telling him he needed to do something.  My guess?  These letters were virtually ALL written by government school children at the direction of their union Democrat-voting government school teachers.  Prove me wrong."
 

Plano, Texas School District Wants Armed Guards In Schools

CBS Local   "The Plano Independent School District wants to be a school safety standout by becoming the largest school district in North Texas with armed guards at every single campus. The sweeping changes proposed Tuesday night will not be cheap, but many believe that it is a necessity to keep students and staff members protected." 

"Any plans to use uniformed police officers would likely pull too many of them off the streets, so the school district is opting to hire private guards for the job. That would require dipping into the district’s reserve money, or increasing taxes. “I’m comfortable asking our taxpayers to pay more,” Plano ISD trustee David Stolle said, “if that’s what it comes down to.” "
Now if only schools in less affluent areas could have the same security, but since mass-murderers all seem to be white guys, maybe this is the proper targeted area to consider.

Obama and Imperial Rule

 Oregon Sheriff: Exec. Orders that Offend Constitution Will Not Be Enforced;  "Linn County Oregon Sheriff Tim Mueller cut right to the chase in an open letter to Vice President Biden on January 14: "Any federal regulation enacted by Congress or executive order...offending the constitutional rights of my citizens will not be enforced by me or my deputies.""

"In summary, it is the position of this Sheriff that I refuse to participate, or stand idly by, while my citizens are turned into criminals due to the unconstitutional actions of misguided politicians."

Ron Gazda of Richardson, TX sent this next article, which led me to do a bit more research on the 1992 movie (being mistrustful of Hollywood's take on things, even when it seems to support my personal point of view). This film segment below  is said to be from Hallmark, which I like.

Battle of Athens, Tennessee in 1946  "The Battle of Athens (sometimes called the McMinn County War) was a rebellion led by citizens in Athens and Etowah, Tennessee, United States, against the local government in August 1946. The citizens, including some World War II veterans, accused the local officials of political corruption and voter intimidation. The event is sometimes cited by firearms ownership advocates as an example of the value of the Second Amendment in combating tyranny."  Much more information on this here.  It includes a fascinating hour-by hour timeline of the incident in Athens.

Andrew Klavan; What We Talk About When We Talk About Guns   As the founders knew, however, the power we grant the state to defend us can easily be turned against us. “The means of defence against foreign danger,” Madison wrote, “have been always the instruments of tyranny at home.” Going back even farther, this was why the supporters of republican government stuck the long knives into Julius Caesar. In “crossing the Rubicon,” he violated the law by bringing the Roman army into Italy. This effectively turned the means of protecting the republic into the tool for establishing imperial rule."
