NRA Makes Pre-Statement Notice

[1Buckshot]

The NRA is not the King of King’s when it comes to our guns. We the people are. It’s time to stop Squabbling between ourselves and call or Email our Representatives and Senators every day until this goes away. If there jobs are on the line then they might listen. The House is still in Republican hands. Unless BO passes a Executive Order we have a chance of cutting all gun bills of at the knees.

So has anyone that has talked about what the NRA should or should not do actually contacted their Senators and Reps to say not cave in on any new gun laws?   Or we just going to attack each other over who majored in Poly Sci in college and know more about politics than someone else?

I can't speak for any one else, but Kelly Ayotte heard from me last Friday.

    I hate to be a contrarian, but are why are we leaving the field to the enemies of Liberty?

The talking heads are reporting that the NRA has run away with its tail between its legs.

The Left always teaches control the language, control the argument, win the day.

As Mayor Nutter said on MSNBC last night we just need to give up a little freedom for security like we did after 911.

My apologies to Ben Franklin.

As things develop it looks like sheep dogs and sheep doggettes are the answer in the schools.

Apparently works in Utah.  Teaching certificate + CCW certificate = safer public schools since 1996 (last Utah school murder).
                                     (suicides dont count)

If Michael has other reasons, my apologies.

On a happier note the liberal mouth dribble seems to be rinning out.  The reaction here in Missouri is too tell people not directly

affected to quit sniveling and get back to protecting our God given rights.  Louis Gohmert for President!

Ya, its the same post but it is still right!  Even Reagan Drug Czar & Harvard Philosophy Grad Bill Bennett gets it.  Wants to let football coaches carry.  Even RINO Bill Kristol agreed acknowledging ccw holder have a lower crime rate than police officers.

If you are not going to fight effectively for your rights you do not deserve them.

Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
Never go outside the experience of your people.
Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the enemy.
Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
Keep the pressure on.
The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.
The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

You have already let them do at least 3 of 12.
You will never protect what you have left, let alone restore what's been lost if you continue to hold the delusion that ethics, or scruples has any place in politics.
The Christian Right and other "goody two shoes groups needs to STFU and tend to their souls and leave politics to the realists who actually understand it.

Actually the Christian Right, under Ralph Reed and Pat Robertson got all of those rules and used them to good effect. Its why a minority got veto power over the GOP. Alinsky isn't just about ideology, butalso  tactics. Ignoring him because he was a lefty would be like a General ignoring Romel's tactics because he was a Nazi, or R.E. Lee's because he was a Confederate.

Glad you  said it so I don't have to.
Complacency and thinking of the enemy as "reasonable people" will lose us our rights just like it did in England, Canada, and Australia under the exact same circumstances.

Actually, ya dumb grunt, you said it first!

The difference between us Tom is that when I heard of the senseless slaying of 20 children and 6 of their teachers the first thing that came to my mind was not "How can this tragedy adversly affect my life?"  Quite the contrary, I thought of those children, those mothers, those fathers, their extended families, their community and the countless others affected...  I think the Constitution will prevail without my influence!

I'm out...maybe for good!  Have a nice life...

I should PM this to Pathfinder, but the shock of FQ "getting it" and being right might be to much for him .
And we know it really is FQ because he misspelled "Rommel".

My first reaction was gee, to bad for those families, it's a shame the loss 27 lives will be used by our enemies to f*ck 310 million citizens.
 "I think the Constitution will prevail without my influence!"
I'm sure the "good Germans said the same thing .

I have my drafts ready to go to elected officials on December 26th.  I will see what the National Rifle Association says before I craft a response to them that will also go after Christmas.

Tomorrow I am on the radio again concerning this, but the message will be the same:  Take a deep breath - life will go on; The world is not coming to an end (I need to find a better way to state that in light of the Mayans, but it was a good chuckle this noon during an interview); Respect one another; Anger is one of the normal grief responses, but don't let it get out of hand and allow a little extra tolerance with one another these days; And above all, this was an act of violence and nothing more - Don't repay violence with violence.

Politics will wait until after Christmas.  This week is not the time to play politics, and nothing is going to happen over the weekend.

What a load of self rightous crap.
This is exactly the sort of unrealistic complacent foolishness I'm referring to .
Your politics can wait till the 4th of July for all anybody cares, Obama already started making his moves this morning so nothing you have to say matters, all you and the NRA can do is react because you gave away the initiative.
