[
3,000 Americans perished on 9/11 but not one journalist has the integrity to tell the world that over 20,000 Iraqi civilians including 867 children were killed by U.S. forces even though we all now know that Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11. I visited two web sites that document it all... http://www.iraqbodycount.net/ and http://www.veteranorgandonors.org and the pictures on this second site (page 2) are so disgusting that I am almost ashamed to be an American. Our tax dollars paid for all this indiscriminate killing. There are no weapons of mass destruction, Saddam is jailed, - so why are Iraqi civilians still being killed, jailed, and tortured? Is our news media being manipulated or threatened by the government to conceal these civilian deaths from us??? Just imagine if these were YOUR kids!!! Maybe now you can understand why so many people hate Americans. If someone did this to your son, daughter, or grandchild, would you not also be so enraged that you might want to strap a bmob to your body and seek out the perpetrators? Why isn't one columnist or one TV program addressing the root of all this hatred? Mr. Bush just wants to kill everyone who disagrees with his administration and jail anyone who can be contrued to be "an enemy". Scaring Americans is what he does best - the same tactic used by Hitler to rally his people behind him. Censorship is not part of a genuine democracy. Our government is a fraud and Mr. Bush is a war criminal. Ask your Congressman and Senator to hold this administration accountable for all the civilian deaths in Iraq. "BABY KILLERS" is what America is being called around the world. So take your head out of the sand and raise some hell with your local talk radio DJs and newspaper editors. If you're proud to be an American - stand up for the real America and not Bush's Gestapo police state. Now maybe you can understand why Mr. Bush did not want American to be part of the International Criminal Court - he and his crew would be defendants in that court right now! ] |

Mr. Bush just wants to kill everyone who disagrees with his administration and jail anyone who can be contrued to be "an enemy". How come you are not dead or disappeared? As do all players of the game. Same question to you. Scaring Americans is what he does best - the same tactic used by Hitler to rally his people behind him. Similar though the Patriot Act goes far beyond any legalism that Hitler could have gotten away with. Cites? Opinions count for nothing. Censorship is not part of a genuine democracy. Ah, but censorship and secrecy are critical components of the game. I notice the big black slashes across both of your posts. The Censorship is horrendous isnt it? Our government is a fraud and Mr. Bush is a war criminal. Ask your Congressman and Senator to hold this administration accountable for all the civilian deaths in Iraq. "BABY KILLERS" is what America is being called around the world. Not a chance because they are also playing the game. Snicker...got your AFDB on?

Now maybe you can understand why Mr. Bush did not want American to be part of the International Criminal Court - he and his crew would be defendants in that court right now! ] I passed on your posts to the American Gestapo and they have you scheduled for a midnight knock on the door and a unmarked grave before the bars close. I suggest getting your affairs in order ASAP. The clock is ticking. None who believe in American sovereignty supports an "International Court." In other words, no American. The US must take care of its own. If it cannot then all is lost anyway. So whatcha gonna do guys? Continue to write purple prose worthy of a 1940s Commisar? Fat lot of good that will do.

Another nitwit that doesn't understand the rules.
There are no military poeple fighting in Iraq against the Americans. They are all civilians as they don't wear a uniform. There is always collateral damage whenever armies clash. When kids and other such non-combatants are in the area between the armies, they also lose. Don't get caught with a black powder rifle or you will be prosecuted for having a assult weapon! Yep, at one time, the rifle was the ultimate in weaponry and was considered to be, in today's terms, an assult weapon! I'll also note that the rat poison under your sink (or wherever you keep it) is a weapon of mass destruction as the improper use of it can indeed kill a number of people without warning to them.

Gunner Liberals - Cosmopolitan critics, men who are the friends of every country save their own. Benjamin Disraeli This I like. I've made the point before (perhaps not here, don't remember..), that an airplane full of folks going somewhere is a perfect example of a disarmed society- and look how little it took for a few criminals who simply broke the law, who didn't follow the instruction to not bring weapons with them, to take it over. If you arm everyone who is willing to be armed you change the balance considerably and a few criminals are not adequate to take it over (let's assume, so as to prevent distortion of the picture by the ignorant, that we arm all with weapons that won't poke big holes in the body of the plane). In the case of the 9/11 hijackings you could have armed the criminals too, and they'd still have had a smaller chance than they did. I suspect the gun-grabbers feel sympathy for criminals, perhaps even admiration.. I suspect they have a secret desire to be a victim and find the idea of defending themselves and those whom they (supposedly) love to be revolting.. and instead of addressing the true problem, the problem inside themselves, they direct it outward and hate those who would defend themselves and their families, and the tools they would use to do it.

John John, I've had some real drag-'em-out, face-to-face verbal battles with people on the anti-gun side, when I was involved in pro-gun rallies and lobbying for my state affiliate of the NRA. From their point of view, things like what you say above make YOU the problem. And that's the insight that you seem to be lacking when you fly off in your imagination, trying to figure out what's on their minds. Think about this objectively if you can: You're saying they have a "desire to be victims." You say "they find the idea of defending themselves to be revolting." These are absurd and childish things to say. You've cooked them up in your imagination. And you've got guns. So here's you, from their perspective: You're a little bit nutty and a whole lot childish, you diminish them in value as human beings, and you have the means to kill them in your hands. That's why you're part of the problem, as they see it. That's why they don't trust you. And, you know what? If you actually believe what you've written above, I don't trust you, either. That's one reason that I'M well-armed. There are too many people around who are armed to the teeth but who have no respect for people who have different social or political views. They live in their imaginations but they have guns in the here-and-now. No wonder many anti-gunners don't trust them. -- Ed Huntress |

Certainly John is reaching to make a point. If you are really well armed to protect yourself against the likes of John, do you not make his point?? Respectfully , Jim |

They live in their imaginations but they have guns in the here-and-now. No wonder many anti-gunners don't trust them. Ed, That is powerful insight. But does it ring true? I think so. When I was involved in gun lobbying here in NJ, and involved in organizing a rally in Trenton, I saw some nut-jobs who really gave me the creeps. One "leader" on the pro-gun side, the guy who was the state head of that pro-gun organization of Jews (I forget their name -- Jews for the Second Amendment, maybe?) had, I swear, foam running out of both corners of his mouth and he was flailing his arms like an epileptic. An old German immigrant who wore an Australian digger hat was passing out "Running N*gger" targets and talking about how we had to get used to shooting people with dark skin, because they were "the real targets." I've been shooting and hunting for 47 years, and of course I know that those people are few and far between. But they're there, and they're armed. Whenever some guy gets really irrational about some "others" who he thinks are the big problem, and the guy is armed, my flags go up. How crazy is this guy, anyway?, I wonder. Certainly John is reaching to make a point. "Reaching"? He's armchair-psychoanalyzing people who make him angry, and his "analysis" is that they're psychopaths who love being victims. 'Think maybe he'd like to help them along in that regard? Are you sure? If you are really well armed to protect yourself against the likes of John, do you not make his point?? His attitude is a self-fulfilling prophecy. When you put a wall between yourself and the "others," and when you're armed, you become the source of their fear. As for protecting myself, I'm prepared for basic eventualities. Guns can be the source of a lot of recreation, the means of self-defense, and a few other positive things. They also can be the tool of choice for people with certain kinds of attitudinal problems. -- Ed Huntress |

Opinions count for nothing. By yer own reckoning, much of what you post appears to "count for nothing", Mark. Just my "opinion", though! One should remember opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink. Your's are no exception, Btw..why are you hiding your identity? Ashamed of who you are? Gunner "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." - John Stewart Mill |
