style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; BACKGROUND: white">A LITTLE
BIT OF HISTORY TO THINK ABOUT.......December 29, 2012 marked the 122nd
Anniversary of the murder of 297 Sioux Indians at Wounded Knee Creek
on the Pine<SPAN> </SPAN><SPAN>Ridge Indian Reservation in South
Dakota . These 297 people, in their winter camp, were murdered
by federal agents and members of the 7th Cavalry who had come to
confiscate their firearms “for their own safety and protection”.
The slaughter began after the majority of the Sioux had
peacefully turned in their firearms. The Calvary began shooting,
and managed to wipe out the entire camp. 200 of the 297 victims
were women and children. About 40 members of the 7th Cavalry
were killed, but over half of them were victims of fratricide from the
Hotchkiss guns of their overzealous comrades-in-arms. Twenty
members of the 7th Cavalry's death squad, were deemed “National
Heroes” and were awarded the Medal of Honor for their acts of
[cowardice] heroism.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN>We hear very little of
Wounded Knee today. It is usually not mentioned in our history
classes or books. What little that does exist about Wounded Knee
is normally a sanitized “Official Government Explanation”. And
there are several historically inaccurate depictions of the events
leading up to the massacre, which appear in movie scripts and are not
the least bit representative of the actual events that took place that
day.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN>Wounded Knee was among the first federally
backed gun confiscation attempts in United States history. It
ended in the senseless murder of 297
people.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN>Before you jump on the emotionally charged
bandwagon for gun-control, take a moment to reflect on the real
purpose of the Second Amendment, the right of the people to take up
arms in defense of themselves, their families, and property in the
face of invading armies or an oppressive government. The
argument that the Second Amendment only applies to hunting and target
shooting is asinine. When the United States Constitution was
drafted, “hunting” was an everyday chore carried out by men and women
to put meat on the table each night, and “target shooting” was an
unheard of concept. Musket balls were a precious commodity and
were certainly not wasted on “target shooting”. The Second
Amendment was written by people who fled oppressive and tyrannical
regimes in Europe, and it refers to the right of American citizens to
be armed for defensive purposes, should such tyranny arise in the
United States</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>

<P style="BACKGROUND: white"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; BACKGROUND: white">As time
goes forward, the average citizen in the United States continually
loses little chunks of personal freedom or “liberty”. Far too
many times, unjust gun control bills were passed and signed into law
under the guise of “for your safety” or “for protection”. The
Patriot Act signed into law by G.W. Bush, was expanded and continues
under Barack Obama. It is just one of many examples of American
citizens being stripped of their rights and privacy for “safety”.
Now, the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is on the table, and will,
most likely be attacked to facilitate the path for the removal of our
firearms, all in the name of “our safety”.</SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"><BR><BR><SPAN
style="BACKGROUND: white">Before any American citizen blindly accepts
whatever new firearms legislation that is about to be doled out, they
should stop and think about something for just one
minute-</SPAN><BR><SPAN style="BACKGROUND: white">Evil does exist in
our world. It always has and always will. Throughout
history evil people have committed evil acts. In the Bible one
of the first stories is that of Cain killing Abel. We cannot
legislate “evil” into extinction. Good people will abide by the
law, and the criminal element will always find a way around
it.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN style="BACKGROUND: white">Evil exists all
around us, but looking back at the historical record of the past 200
years, across the globe, where is “evil” and “malevolence” most often
found? In the hands of those with the power, the governments.
That greatest human tragedies on record and the largest loss of
innocent human life can be attributed to governments. Who do the
governments always target? “Scapegoats” and “enemies” within
their own borders…but only after they have been disarmed to the point
where they are no longer a threat. Ask any Native American, and
they will tell you it was inferior technology and lack of arms that
contributed to their demise. Ask any Armenian why it was so easy
for the Turks to exterminate millions of them, and they will answer
“We were disarmed before it happened”. Ask any Jew what Hitler’s
first step prior to the mass murders of the Holocaust was -
confiscation of firearms from the people.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN
style="BACKGROUND: white">Wounded Knee is the prime example of why the
Second Amendment exists, and why we should vehemently resist any
attempts to infringe on our Rights to Bear Arms. Without the
Second Amendment we will be totally stripped of any ability to defend
ourselves and our families</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>
