Ironies of Those in Opposition to the Bill of Rights.
The Press
One of the standardbearers in the fight against the Bill
of Rights is the American press. This industry enjoys a freedom to
speak out unheard of in even the most "enlightened" countries.
Why do they believe that the freedom of the press they benefit
from will be safe from tampering if they are successful in their effort
to weaken the second amendment? Tyrants fear the truth almost as much
as they fear an armed citizenry. Once the would be rulers of America
disarm the people, they certainly will have no reason to let the press
speak out against them.
Unions
American labor union leaders traditionally align
themselves and their powerbase with those who oppose personal freedom.
They aparently missed the events of the late twentieth century when
Polish and Russian labor leaders had to resist armed military units to
gain freedom from oppression they had endured for most of that century.
Those freedoms are the very ones we are guaranteed by our Bill of
Rights.
Educators
Educators look to Federal government to solve
educational problems. They should consider the record during the last
50 years, as more and more "funding" was acguired from the national
government, Theirs is a legacy of less education and more
intrusion and dictation of curriculum in the classroom. During this
time the government education system has become increasingly hostile to
American ideals. Curriculum dictated by government serves to further
the political strength of those in power. Certainly educators are aware
this would accelerate if the government arrests control of
childrearing from parents. This is the ultimate tool the left plans to
use to complete their assault on the Bill of Rights. It will be much
easier to control the minds of future citizens who learn the "correct
speak" in government schools, Perhaps the Department of Education
should be renamed the Ministry of Propaganda. Sound familiar?
"Do we really think that a government-dominated education is going to
produce citizens capable of dominating their government, as the
education of a truly vigilant self-governing people requires?"- (ALAN
KEYES)
The American Bar Association
This organization is one of the leaders in the drive
to revise the second amendment right to bare arms. They should consider
that one of the rights they have used to defent many clients, freedom
from illegal search and siezure, is itself being denegrated in the name
of the war on drugs. This should be a warning that all these rights
come as a set and those who wish to change "just one" are opening a
breach which they cannot close. Once one has been successfully changed
then the others are fair game for the social engineers.
The American Jewish Leadership
The Jewish community should be appalled at
their leaders for supporting gun control legislation. They have a
history as an unarmed and unpopular minority facing a tyranical
government bent on social engineering. The European Jews were
disarmed before Hitlers storm troopers came for them. And had the
British been successful in their attempt to disarm the Jews in
palestine in 1946 then Isreal would still be just a promise.
Law Enforcement
An already overburdened criminal justice system
calling for citizens to give up the ability to defend themselves from
criminal attack is tantamount to turning the streets over to the
criminal element. Police admit that they cannot and are not required to
protect the individual citizen from crime. If all private citizens are
known to be unarmed then what would deter criminals from preying on
anyone they wished without fear of danger to themselves? The answer is
obviously nothing. The number of crimes thwarted by legal gun owners
each year, while unreported by the media or law enforcement, is
extremely high. Do the police really want to include these incidents in
crime statistics in the future? Add to this the millions of new
criminals, those who believe in the sanctity of the Bill of Rights and
would refuse to turn in their arms, and the future of law enforcement
would really look bleak.
Parents Groups
In the future proposed be opponents of the Bill of Rights it
will "take a village" to raise a child. This is socialist jargin for
government intrusion into family life and childrearing. Foes of
individual freedom use fear of guns to extort the help of parents from
whom they intend to subvert parental rights. Certainly the death of any
child from any cause is an unmeasurable tradgedy. Those killed by
illegal or improper gun use are among the most tragic. But, for a
people to give up the basic right of self defense in the belief that
these tradgedys will end demonstrates a total misunderstanding of the
issues involved. The actions of adults cause these tradgedies to occur.
These adults must be held accountable. In every child shooting an
existing law has been brocken. Most result from the direct comission of
a crime.(usually criminal on criminal) Others result from gun
thefts by individuals bent on doing harm. Still others are due to
criminal negligence by a gun owner. Parents should be
calling for the enforcement of existing laws and the prosecution of
those who make guns easily accessable to children.
Firearms in the posession
of responsible, law abiding citizens are
not harmful to law abiding
children, Destruction of the
Bill of Rights is. The Bill of Rights is not the bill of privaliges. To treat any of them
as privaliges given by, and subordinate to government is opening a
Pandoras Box of abuses by that government. Once these rights are lost,
the only way to regain them would be revolution. If we disarm, who will
be in a position to revolt? This, I believe, is the real issue.
The Silent Majority
This is the most dangerous group because they are the ones making the
whole assault on the bill of rights possible. Their failure to vote or
speak out leaves others with the impression that the movement is more
popular than, in truth, it is. A vocal minority being echoed by the
popular press is leading the U.S. into an American armeggedon because a
majority believe that the issue does not effect them. After all, many
don't own guns, or speak out politically or get arrested. If this
assault on the Bill of Rights is successful, then they won't need to
worry about the first two rights. However, they better hope they don't
run afoul of their new rulers. Then they will definitely miss the
Fourth Amendment.
