Reason TV lists five facts regarding firearms that you won’t hear from the authoritarians running the media branch of the government:

1. Gun violence has been declining.
2. Despite the politically driven hype, mass shootings are not becoming more frequent.
3. Schools are safer than they were.
4. There are more guns out there, despite (or more likely, causing) the decline in gun violence.
5. “Assault weapons” bans have no effect on crime or violence.

Here’s another fact: the progressive establishment’s full frontal assault on the Second Amendment following Obama’s disastrous reelection was easily predictable; if Sandy Hook hadn’t happened, America’s enemy within would have seized on some other pretext.

But totalitarian liberals aren’t about to let facts get in the way of the emotions they have deliberately whipped into a frenzy.

   Calm,sane,reasoned video. I do have one correction. He states that recent gov’t. actions have been taken using emotion and ideology. I believe the correct term would be idiotology.

   The same logic which propels Bloomberg to take guns from the innocent as punishment for the crimes of the guilty results in the strict regulation of pain killers in hospital emergency rooms because of their illegal use on the street

   Don’t be fooled by all the media fear, hysteria, and lies, regarding the CT. school shooting. The Left has been trying to disarm America for generations. They will use any opportunity to further that end. And don’t think it’s about “assault weapons”. What they’re after is about a total, British-style , all-out ban.

    Liberals don’t reason. It’s beyond the limits of their species. They base their lives and opinions on the sex and drama within their little microcosm of human degeneration. Genitalia and Drama are the liberals gods.

    QUOTABLE QUOTES
    “The right of the people to keep and bear arms is an extension of the natural right to self-defense and a hallmark of personal sovereignty. It is specifically insulated from governmental interference by the Constitution and has historically been the linchpin of resistance to tyranny. And yet, the progressives in both political parties stand ready to use the coercive power of the government to interfere with the exercise of that right by law-abiding persons because of the gross abuse of that right by some crazies in our midst…”
