"They Thought They
Were Free"

Each step was so small, so inconsequential, so well explained or, on occasion, ‘regretted,’ that unless one understood what the whole thing was in principle, what all these ‘little measures’. . . must some day lead to, one no more saw it developing from day to day than a farmer in his field sees the corn growing. . . . Each act. . . is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join you in resisting somehow. —Milton Mayer, “They Thought They Were Free. The Germans: 1938-1945.

REAL vs. Nancy Pelosi

In the last few months over eight police officers either have been murdered or wounded in the line of duty. Their deaths have raised the stakes over gun control; and the right for private citizens to own assault weapons. According to Newt Gringrich and the Renewing American Leadership (REAL) Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, are surreptitiously working behind the scene for gun control legislation.

REAL claims Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are out to legislate gun control for all guns (including ones for hunting and sport events). REAL claim the right for private citizens to carry concealed weapons would basically end violent crimes in America. They say states that allow concealed weapon permits statistics show that violent crimes, burglaries, house break-ins, robberies, murder, assaults, inter alia are down considerably. They are wrong.

Out of the eight police officers murdered last month, two of the shooters had no criminal records. They murdered five of the police officers, and both were licensed with a concealed weapons permit. REAL claims that police officers across the board are in favor of private citizens carrying concealed weapons. That is absolutely false. Not when police officers are maliciously gunned down by outraged citizens for simple traffic stops.

REAL states that Nancy Pelosi is un-American for her stand against violent crimes, especially those that involve a gun. In truth, Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are fighting to get guns off the streets. Their objective is to protect law enforcement and private citizens from harms way. However, REAL associates this kind of legislation as an attempt to destroy Americans’ rights to bare arms. Again this is ludicrous. The Speaker of the House is doing her job exactly the way Americans expect her to do.

Gun control is an essential tool to protect all Americans from rogue individuals that are bent on murdering the innocent. Without gun control violent crimes will continue to rise. The elderly, women and children are the ones that suffer at the hands of ‘good gun carrying citizens.’ Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are making an effort to stop this madness. REAL and Newt Gringrich are openly promoting violent crimes by lobbying for gun activists. REAL is nothing more than window dressing for gun activists rights that place police officers, women, and childrens’ lives in harms way. Let’s stop this madness by supporting Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats efforts to control guns in America.
