After Nidal Hasan killed 13 and wounded more than 30 in November 2009, John R. Lott wrote about one of the craziest policies to come out of the Clinton era: making military bases “gun free zones.” Yes, that’s correct.

The early investigation indicates that Aaron Alexis legally bought a shotgun at a Lorton, Va., firearms dealer last week. The law allows a buyer to purchase a long gun – which is a rifle or shotgun – without being a resident of the state where the firearm is bought. The question then falls to whether…
Let me get this straight the bipartisan amendment that Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) proposed, then was defeated in the senate and admittedly would not have stopped the Newtown massacre, nor would it have prevented a future tragedy. It seems to me a bill that would not stop future killings was a failure at conception. So what’s the fuss O? Angry Obama stated this was a starting point, why did he say this because he plans to chip away at our second amendment rights, what he really wants to say is, I will not stop till I gets all your guns…….
Our hearts go out to these families their emotions are understandably high after losing children in such a shockingly tragic and violent way in Newtown. The Power hungry politicians in Washington decided to exploit these families by assigning each family a handler, then flew them off to Washington on Air Force One. They whisked them off to Congress to emotionally lobby for these politicians illegal gun grabbing agenda. They are using this tragedy in Newtown as an emotional tool designed to eliminate any debate on the gun issue. Claiming anybody who is against the wishes of these families has no heart and is against protecting our children. These detestable power hungry politicians are executing a Sal Alinski tactic that emotion eliminates debate. The facts have no place in any of the emotionally charged debates taking place today. Leading with the heart and excluding the brain will not end well for freedom in America.
The question these parents should be asking themselves is… would any of the legislation being proposed today by these politicians have stopped the murder of their children? Will it prevent the murder of other peoples children, no it will not stop the mentally ill and evil people from committing acts of violence like Newton and many other similar tragedies. Remember it is not the law-abiding citizens committing these crimes, so why take away their rights to protect their families and property from the same type of sick and evil people that killed their loved ones.

Luby’s Cafeteria Massacre survivor Dr. Suzanna Gratia Hupp testifying to Congress on why good Americans obeying bad gun laws leads to death and suffering. The former Texas House Representative shared her story about her parents murder i n front of her eyes by a shooter in a Luby’s Restaurant. Due to gun restrictions, Dr. Suzanna Hupp had left her gun in her car that fateful day. “Honestly, I don’t view myself as a victim of gun violence,” she said simply. “I view myself as a victim of a maniac who happened to use a gun as a tool, and I view myself as a victim of the legislators at the time who left me defenseless.” Dr. Suzanna Hupp Dr. re-told the gripping story with new details, before explaining one of the reasons why help was so slow in coming for the victims.
Dr. Suzanna Hupp 2013 Testimony in Judiciary Subcommittee Hearing on Second Amendment
“The police officers, several of them, were patients of mine. Several days later, they filled in the gaps. They said they were actually one building away at a conference, and in an odd twist of gun control fate, the hotel where they were having their conference, the manager there didn’t want them to be wearing their guns and potentially offending any of her clients or customers…So precious minutes were lost as they retrieved their guns from their locked cars.
Dr. Suzanna Hupp 2007 Testimony before Congress on the Second Amendment
“They said that when they got over there they didn’t know who the gunman was. There were bodies everywhere. But they [saw] a woman out in the aisle on her knees, cradling a mortally wounded man. They said they watched as some thirty-something-year-old man walked up to her. They said she looked up at him, he put a gun to her head, she looked down at her husband, and he pulled the trigger. That’s how they knew who the gunman was.
“They said all they had to do was fire a shot into the ceiling, and the man immediately rabbited into a back bathroom alcove area. “23 people were killed that day, including my parents. ”Ever since the tragedy at Luby’s, she has been spreading the word about a right-to-carry law would have probably saved her parents’ lives. Hupp has authored a book regarding her experiences: “From Luby’s to the Legislature: One Woman’s Fight Against Gun Control”
According to FBI data 65,376,373 background checks were completed for Americans purchasing firearms since February of 2009, guns sales have skyrocketed since Obama was elected in 2009. The fear of financial collapse is first and foremost on the minds of gun purchasers, bought mainly to protect their families and property. These numbers also point to a nation in panic which is gripped by fear of Obama’s tyrannical policies and his continual driving of the racial divide in the nation make people feel that this type of dangerous rhetoric could put them at risk.
The reality is that government authority’s have continually failed to protect the American people from crime and terrorist attacks in this country they show up most of the time after the crime or the attack has been committed successfully, this does not make people feel very safe, these very real fears and concerns keep the guns flying off the shelves at record levels.
