Denying You’re In A War Doesn’t Make War Go Away

Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- Here we go again, this time in TN:

Several members of our “unarmed forces” were gunned down by a lone terrorist at a recruitment center in Chattanooga, TN.

Few details at present, but there is little doubt victims were selected because they were wearing US military uniforms.

We’ve already heard the standard condemnations and hand-wringing from the local mayor, et al.

Sadly, our so-called “advanced” society has devolved in 150 years to embrace an illogical state of mandatory disarmament and learned helplessness. Even our military personnel are now instructed that they should be fearful of guns, that all American gun-owners are “enemies of the state,” and that being feeble, helpless “good victims,” (while, of course, maintaining a continuous state of personal defenselessness) represent their ultimate civil duties!

Contrary to adolescent expectations of foolish politicians, wars cannot be “turned on,” proceed predictably, then “turned off,” all on an arbitrary time-table. Once started, wars take-on an unconfined personality all their own, with unforeseeable implications, few of which will submit to naive wishes of the original instigators.

And, continuously denying you’re in a war doesn’t make the War go away!

“Let us not pray to be sheltered from danger, but to be fearless when facing it.” ~ Rabindranath Tagore

It’s called, “WILLFUL NEGLECT OF STATUTORY DUTY”, look it up! Study it and review YOUR state’s Constitution for the mechanism to REMOVE CORRUPT OFFICIALS FROM OFFICE…. Rather than watch Monday Football, or Honey Boo Boo does Kim Kardashian or whatever other excuses you people use to AVOID YOPUR RESPONSIBILITY AND DUTIES AS AMERICAN CITIZENS TO MAINTAIN YOUR GOVERNMENT AND IT’S GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS!

It’s precisely because wars don’t turn on & off at the flick of a switch that the US should stop fighting overseas. If the US govt weren’t going around the world maintaining its empire no one would have a reason to attack us. Security lies not in aggression but in defense. Let’s give living in peace with the world a try now.

@Darren,did you vote for hussein obama both times ? Go to hell !

JohnC

Thank you Darren, well said. In addition if we were not involved in bombing and killing the Mideast we would not be inciting these people so much. And to Tex, obviously you are a great American, damning someone for voting differently than you. Yes you for freedom.

When ISIS says “War!” Obama says “Fore!”

Is it intentionally criminal or criminal negligence on Obama’s part? In either case, he clearly needs to be prosecuted.

Amen!!!

The President as always, is only partly responsible. Just because you dislike him and disagree with him does not make him guilty or even wrong. When you scream against someone or something people do not listen to you. Talk reasonably and quietly and see what happens.
