Ban Democrat John Yarmuth

Rep. John Yarmuth, D-Ky., continues his assault on the 2nd Amendment and the freedom of the residents of Kentucky, joining Obama in an attempt to cut back on American freedoms even more.

Yarmuth attacked the National Rifle Association members and CEO Wayne Lapierre, saying their major focus is to sell more weapons. The idea that members of the NRA's primary purpose is to sell more weapons is an outrageous lie that Yarmuth and the Democratic Party he belongs to needs to apologize for.

The idea that members of the NRA in Kentucky have as their goal the selling of weapons can't even be taken seriously. These are the types of lies and strong-arm tactics Obama and his allies like Yarmuth are using in an attempt to strip away our rights. We must oppose them totally and completely.

As Wayne Lapierre said, “Independent studies, including a study from the Clinton Justice Department, proved that ban had no impact on lowering crime.” He's correct of course, and the gun issue has nothing to do with firearms, but the condition of the human heart and individual person that is wielding them.

No law or restrictions can change that, and it's only the criminals that will have guns once Democrats like John Yarmuth are given their way.

So the idea of background checks having any deterrent on violent crime where guns are used is a false and faulty one. Like anyone is naive enough to believe a criminal is going to check in somewhere before obtaining a gun of any sort. It's ridiculous to the point of being laughable.

What's driving this is the sense of helplessness people feel after a tragedy happens when guns are used to kill people. Unfortunately we live in a world with sin, and no law will ever be able to change the fact that there is evil in the world.

People are arrested all the time for killing with a variety of weapons, including baseball bats, knives, and other implements. Are we to ban all of them too. Are we to have background checks with those and other items as well?

In the end we'll just become a police state attempting to create an utopia on earth that will become an enemy of freedom and the citizens it asserts it's trying to protect.

We will never live in a perfect world, and the Utopian and dangerous liberals like John Yarmuth better learn that quick. Next election let's remind him of that fact as we vote him out of office.

Some at this time may be thinking or asking themselves the question of what about the next time innocent people and children are killed? The answer is how can anybody stop a person intent on killing anyone else.

The only way to limit or stop the damage is to train and arm some of the administrators and teachers in schools and other public areas to the point where they can defend their charges. This has worked in church buildings around America, which had had its members attacked on a consistent basis until they started defending themselves. That will work in every circumstance, and is a strong deterrent from wannabee killers.
