Gun
History in the United States
“Policemen are
nobody’s personal bodyguards".
Their jobs are to
find and arrest people who have committed crimes, not to
prevent such potential crimes from happening in the first
place.
Clearly, the
responsibility for victim-prevention lies with the
victim-to-be. (same idea as wearing seatbelts and
locking your doors).
About registering guns: Since when do we have to
register for our constitutional rights (2nd amendment). What's next -
having to register for (1st amendment too)?

It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were
forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to
be destroyed by their own government, a program costing
Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first
year results are now in:
Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent
Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent
(yes, 44 percent)!
In Australia (state of Victoria) alone, homicides with firearms
are now up 300 percent. Note that while the
law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did
not, and criminals still possess their guns!
It will never happen here?
I bet the Aussies said that
too!
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady
decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed
drastically upward in the past 12 months, since criminals
now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.
There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and
assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a
loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such
monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully
ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian
experience and the other historical facts above prove it.
You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear
politicians disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property
and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the
law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please
remind him of this history lesson.
With Guns..............We
Are 'Citizens'.
Without Them........We Are 'Subjects'..
During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America
because they knew most Americans were ARMED !
Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack
on Pearl Harbor had attended Harvard U 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of
our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor & our Army had been
deprived of funding & was ill prepared to defend the
country.
It was reported that when asked why Japan did
not follow up the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of
the U. S. Mainland, his reply was that he had lived in the
U. S. & knew that almost all households had guns.

control message to all your friends!
