How U.S. feeds mass murder
We just broke our previous record and since 9/11 now have the largest number of innocent Americans killed, at one time on our own soil, by terrorist activity, and we even handed out the weapons so it could be carried out in a heinous manner.
I would like to ask some pertinent questions, if I may be so bold? Why wasn’t the 1,000-year-old problem in the Middle East left over there until it arrived on our soil at the time we started meddling in Middle East affairs when we went after Saddam Hussein in the first Gulf War? Who decided to go after Saddam Hussein, illegally, and then passed the vendetta on to his son through a surrogate president?
Do you remember what Ron Paul (R) stated in 2008 when he ran for president? “They are over here because we went over there.”
Why is it that anyone can still legally procure any type of assault weapon in this country that is capable of taking out massive numbers of our loved ones by a single person? I believe in my right to own a single handgun to protect myself, or a simple rifle/shotgun to at least give the dumb animal a fighting chance before killing him.
Who, since they have controlled Congress, has thwarted any type of legislation that would curtail these types of weapons and at a minimum disallow the mentally challenged from owning them? Whose souls are owned by The NRA?
Who has recently riled up U.S. citizens to such an extent that ISIS recruiting techniques have been enhanced?
You now know we are talking about the so-called “Tea Party” movement. This fall will bring down this movement, which reached out to the likes of “the Donald” to come aboard to save their raging impotency.
