On Gun Control
IT IS TIME FOR ALL SENATORS and Congresspersons TO BE  STATESMEN AND NOT A POLITICAL HACKS REWARDING THOSE WHOSE PET ISSUES ARE REWARDED WITH YOUR VOTES:
A LITTLE GUN HISTORY:
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control.   From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated..  
    ------------------------------  
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and  exterminated.  
    ------------------------------
Germany  established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.  
    ------------------------------  
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated  
    -----------------------------  
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and  exterminated.  
    -----------------------------
Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.  
    ------------------------------  
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to  1977, one million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.  
    -----------------------------  
Defenseless  people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.  
    ------------------------------  
It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,38    
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:  
List of 7 items:  
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 the 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!
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 before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control,  please remind them of this history  lesson.  
With guns, we  are 'citizens'.  Without them, we are 'subjects'.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were  ARMED!  
If you value your freedom, please spread this anti-gun control message to all of your friends..  
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defeat. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either.   
The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental.  
SWITZERLAND  ISSUES EVERY  HOUSEHOLD A GUN!  SWITZERLAND 'S  GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY ISSUE A RIFLE.  SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!

IT'S  A NO BRAINER! DON'T LET OUR GOVERNMENT WASTE  MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET.     

I'm a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment!  If you think you are not, then give it some serious thought ... for your own good!
