Let's Get Serious About Protecting Ourselves

Like many issues, our country has two very distinct views about security and violence. There are those who believe that if guns were totally eliminated, there would be less crime because people would not have access to firearms. Others believe that "the best defense is a good offense" and being prepared is equal to being protected.

The first belief relies on people's inner goodness (a questionable quality indeed) and stupidity. It assumes that people kill only because they have found an easy way to do it, and not because they have chosen to do evil, or are so insane they are not aware of the consequences of their actions. And it also assumes they're not smart enough to figure out other ways to kill.

The second belief relies on the idea that there will always be people willing to rape, rob and murder, and it might be best to be prepared to defend oneself in the unfortunate event of meeting such a person.

Studies have shown that limiting gun ownership actually increases murder and suicide rates. http://theacru.org/acru/harvard_study_gun_control_is_counterproductive/ http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/jlpp/Vol30_No2_KatesMauseronline.pdf
People are ingenious; if a gun is not handy, there are other ways of getting the job done. Look at Cain and Abel.

It's sad to think that we need to put so much effort into protecting ourselves, but we can no longer afford to put our heads into the sand and pretend that all is goodness and light around us.

Freedom of Choice? Not For Pro-Lifers

In recent weeks, the Obama administration has come under fire for announcing its decision to force religious institutions to pay for contraceptives and abortifacients for their employees against their conscience and freedom of choice. The employers of said institutions rose up in righteous indignation and the Obama administration tried to appease them with a shell-game tactic by stating that their insurance will instead have to pay for these products, the same insurance whose premiums are paid for by the religious institutions themselves.

Tomorrow, Friday March 23rd at people around the nation will gather in their cities to protest this outrageous mandate. Here in Chicago they will meet at the Federal Plaza, 50 W. Adams St. Come join like-minded people and let your voice be heard. Don't let our religious freedom be stripped away!

Scathing Congress report slams Obama's 'covert, criminal activity'

It has been so obvious, but until now unproven, that the Obama administration will go unethically far to influence public opinion.

70 avowed socialists in U.S. Congress

According to their website, the Democratic Socialists of America believe that the economy and society should meet public needs, and not make profits "for a few". Their website calls for radical transformation of the government and society. Which is all a fancy way of saying that the money people earn should not go to those people, but to society for the benefit of others. Freedom of choice is not an option. Socialism does not work because it takes away an individual's right to choose how to run their life and spend their money.
