I have the right to own a gun. I, along with millions of others, prepaid that right by serving our country.
That right, however, is running headlong into a political realm that's rapidly spinning out of control.
Formerly respected generals band together with anti-gun nuts. Why would military figures be so intent on disarming us?
Nothing to suspect there, eh?
The politics of deflection rear their ugly head: another muslim killer slaughters Americans and, instead of talking about the root cause for the slaughter (muslim religion) we're deluged with the idea that somehow, it's the gun's fault and those of us who are wise enough to exercise our 2nd Amendment rights are the ones who are to suffer.
We are deluged with the increasingly false idea that we should not judge the entirety of the islamic cult by the actions of those who seek out ways to kill us.
And we are also somehow held responsible for the actions of those very cult members who are spilling our blood.
I remain troubled that those who've led many of our armed forces have come together with anti-gun hypocrites like Gabby Gifford's husband, Mark Kelly, to do their best to convince us that we have no right to own or operate so-called "assault rifles."
They will, no doubt, join Bloomberg's anti-gun, weaken-the-people empire. (Are these clowns being paid to sell us out?)
As a soldier and an officer, I remain acutely aware of the Constitutional rights I was sworn to uphold.
Words, of course, have meaning. The phrase "shall not be infringed" is a phrase made up of words which, you guessed it, have meaning. I, along with every other soldier, including the ones involved in this general's coffee klatch, swore to uphold every word in that document.
And yet, they turn their backs on that very language.
Why?
We are currently governed by people at every level who find their agendas to be superior to that of those they ostensibly answer to.
Us.
It appears to be part of a pattern I detected a few years back. It's at all levels of government.
Even local.
Who can forget this:
