AK 47 + Domestic Violence = Murder
« on: November 16, 2008, 08:10:52 PM »
This was in my local paper on Saturday:

http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/111508/met_356189490.shtml

The reporter is Matt Coleman (matt.coleman@jacksonville.com)

The AK picture was below the headline. Obviously, the article is trying to stigmatize this rifle. I would like to ask you all to write this rogue and let him know that stigmatizing a rifle is not going to be tolerated. I think we need to start challenging these types of articles anytime they are published.

I am preparing my response and I appreciate all your help!

The man committed a crime, there were Court orders, law enforcement did not act proactively to protect the victims, and they don't know what they could have done  ???

What good are more laws going to do when they can't handle these basics?

I know I'm just repeating myself and countless others, but it sounds better than DUH!

Thanks, Tom. I was thinking the other day that we need to borrow a few pages (chapters, books) from our enemies about how they advance their agenda and protect their positions. This is the kind of thing they do and they seem to be effective. I like to call it force/voice amplification.

I think the fundamental problem lies in the fact that the law is designed and written for those people who abide by the law and not for the people who do not. This leaves the law enforcement community (whether that be in the US or here in Holland) with very little pro-active tools for law enforcement. You can arrest someone for what he has done, but not for what he has not done yet!

I feel for the victims and those left behind, but I truly believe the victims should have protected themselves and be better prepared, eventually by arming themselves ( assuming they weren't). Mind you: as I understand US law as it has been explained to me here on this forum, LEO's aren't required to provide security and personal protection for individual citizens. These people should have realised that and the LEO's should have made that clear to them!

The gun-banners don't even need an excuse to ban and confiscate our guns, but we all know you can't stop domestic violence by getting rid of guns. A guy I worked with strangled his mother-in-law to death. The local news showed the police taking all his guns out of the house and made a big deal about how many guns he had. Some people got all riled up about it and thought we should outlaw the guns that weren't even used to commit the crime, but no one wanted to confiscate our hands, when his bare hands were the only thng that was actually used.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

This article is a harbinger of things to come.  I hate to say that...but with the new liberal victory the weasels are probably feeling a bit empowered and enboldened.

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
