A Dead Victim Is More Moral Than A Live Victim.

Gun Rights Advocates Target California Detective Following Facebook Posts

In the police state known as Kalifornia, it is good to be reminded how the police feel about the citizens.

It should come as no surprise that the media, police, government officials, politicians, ... feel the same way. The courts have already ruled that the government is under no obligation to protect any individual. And once the prohibition of gun ownership is complete, the American people will be the slaves that the ruling classes have always wanted.

If you can't own a gun, then you are not allowed to protect yourself. If the police are not required to protect you, then you are fair game for the criminals. If you don't have the freedom to protect yourself, you have no freedom at all. I don't think that is what the founding fathers had in mind when they were talking about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Without the right to protect yourself (which includes owning a gun), you have no right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness (and certainly no ability to enforce that right).

When seconds count, the police are just minutes away.

Don't think of it as "gun control", think of it as "victim disarmament".

"Gun control" is a job-safety program for criminals.

    This is for very good reason. The only way to "protect people from crime" is to prevent crime entirely, which means you have to arrest anyone who MIGHT be about to commit a crime. At which point, you're penalizing thoughtcrime, rather than actions. (Don't think so? Ever wished someone dead, even when you were a kid? Congratulations, under a total crime PREVENTION program, you are now a murderer and will be arrested.)

    Given that this is the case, it follows that either we have the right to protect ourselves, or we don't. If we don't, then whose responsibility is it, since we know that it is not the responsibility of the police?

    Fine catch-22 the victim-disarmament crowd would like us to live under...
