The Answers to Why the Dems Favor Gun Control???

XML:

I sent an inquiry asking a well informed fellow that I know whether he knows anything about a left-winger named Lakoff or Chomsky:

“Know of Chomsky. Never heard of Lakoff. Again, because you have never HEARD this before from me. I am sick of left and right. I wish the Neocons, the Chomskyites, the Islamofacsists, the crips and the bloods could all go to some remote part of Africa and blow one another to smithereens. And leave people who want to be left alone – ALONE!”

I am trying to find a way to tell this old classmate that has remonstrated to me (as per the above) that this is why some of us are sticking to our guns and fighting for our right to do so- so we can be left the hell alone! Actually, my sister is the one that told me about this fellow Lakoff, a linguist (like Chomsky) turned politico.

People like Chomsky and Lafoff (and Michelle Obama) have nothing positive to say about America. As for the potential for gun owners to provide the last line of defense against tyranny, the left-wing politicos are usually negative unless the gun owner is a follower of Che Gueverra, the Black Panthers or the PLO. Naomi Wolf, on the other hand, seems to be struggling toward some kind of epiphany on the subject of the Second Amendment:

Lakoff (a “progressive” theorist) really makes a telling point by explaining that Conservatives are framing issues in the “metaphor” of patriarchal values like national security, responsibility and self-reliance whereas the other side is framing matters in a decidedly “nurturant” or motherhood framework when it comes to expectations about government.

For example, there was a recent shooting at Seattle’s Folk Life Festival wherein a Concealed Pistol Licensee got into a tussle with some other person(s) that may have been attempting to take away his weapon, a pistol, that he was wearing on his ankle. The CPL holder allegedly may have been a victim himself (i.e., a victim of anti-gun zealotry when his weapon accidentally discharged due to a vigilante attempt to disarm the CPL holder) but he allegedly has a history of mental illness that was never adjudicated- adjudication is the the critical event that prevents issuance of the Concealed Pistol License to a mentally ill person. The complete facts may never be known about these events because, as usually happens in these matters, it is all fuel for the political,legal and media policy debate about firearms in society.

Mayor Nickels already had made it known that he is chafing at Washington state’s firearms preemption statute because it ties the mayor’s hands when it comes to imposing local restrictions on firearms. Seattle’s mayor is affiliated with a coalition of anti-gun mayors that are associated with the mayor of NYC and now he has issued an executive order and intends to take the law into his own hands with no regard for state law or even his own Seattle City Council Members.

The rationale for the Mayor’s illegal actions is that the government can defend people better than the people can defend themselves even though every indication is that police will usually arrive only after a shooting or other violent crime has already occurred. The city parks and other public places belonging to the city are some of the places that experience the highest probability of mass shootings. Japan, a nation with the strictest gun prohibition in the world, has recently experienced another episode in which a man proceeded to hack up innocent young people in an intersection right in the middle of a busy commercial district! The police were there in time to handle the after math.

We are featuring the nice children’s book, “Why Mommy is a Democrat“. Of course, most of us that are devoted to armed self-defense tend to be stronger on security than nurturance.

The book is a real book endorsed by the apparitchiks of the party of Senators Hillary and Obama, both of whom now claim to be strong Second Amendment leaders ("blue dog” democrats seems to be the new expression?). The “Mommy” book is really an anomaly surrounded by all our beautiful photos of military paraphernalia, including EBRs- an EBR is an Evil Black Rifle.

My point is to ask why people that distrust the U.S. government so much and vilify our political process seem so intent on depriving civilians of the means to defend themselves against the government’s monopoly on deadly force. But I do agree with my worst critic (the old school chum that just wants to be left alone); the left/right dichotomy is boring and usually just a linguistic media gloss on the issues.

The media manipulation of social linguistics separates Americans and misleads us. The best reason to keep going back to the Constitution, to uphold it according to the meaning that the drafters of the Constitution intended when they drafted it, is that “Neocons, the Chomskyites, the Islamofacsists, the crips and the bloods” must leave us alone but they will not do so just because wanton violence causes Mayor Nickels to lose votes!.

Steve, if you read this, they are not going to Africa or the Middle East or Asia, etc!

As for me, I want to avoid politics and I do not expect to be left alone without a fight!
