Yes, the title is there to induce shock. If you are not aware, there is a segment of the population that is being discriminated because they chose to take responsibility for their self-defense. The people being discriminated are law abiding citizens who are vetted by State and Federal governments to carry a concealed weapon and yet, they are not allowed to access places that even felons can go into because they carry a weapon for their self-defense.

If you do not carry a concealed weapon, allow me to explain the feeling. Once we made the decision to carry, we must apply for a permit. This usually involves taking a class with a certified instructor and pass an exam, have your picture and fingerprints taken, fill paperwork and send everything to the government so they can verify you are not a Bad Guy. Once the government is satisfied and your information entered in a database, you receive a small ID card which says you are not a nutjob or a felon and can carry a concealed weapon.

Now you think your troubles are over, not so. You see, there is this erroneous conviction perpetuated by those who hate the idea of guns in the hands of civilians that we are an unsafe bunch. In their eyes we are a pack of bloodthirsty animals itching for a fight so can notch our guns with a body count. To calm their fears, politicians banned certain places from anybody who carried a concealed weapon: Schools, Bars, Restaurants, public parks, etc. and in some states, they allowed owners to ban the access to their business as we were some kind of lepers that should be kept outside so we would not infect other people. These places became known as Gun Free Zones.

The concept behind the Gun Free Zones, according to the Anti Gunners was to provide a safe haven from those NRA wackos that carry guns everywhere. They sold the idea hard and long guaranteeing that people would be safe from attacks because the law said so. Instead they created a perfect slaughterhouse for the real crazies that roam our streets and the criminals that like nothing else than a good group of unarmed victims.

So when I see a sign like the one above I am insulted. Why am I being treated like a second class citizen? I have demonstrated my desire of independence by not relying on the government for my safety. I have jumped through the legal hoops to demonstrate I am a Good Guy. I spent money on a quality weapon and gear to protect myself and my loved ones. and yet, I am treated like a pariah because some idiots fail to see the difference between reality and their own impotent fears and in the process they put innocent people at risk by allowing the true sick and the criminals a target rich environment for their misdeeds and mayhem..

Gun Free Zones are nothing more than a modern-day Jim Crow. This has to stop. Now.

  1. Find Susanna Gratia Hupp’s Congressional testimony.

    Watch.

    Listen CAREFULLY.

    Now THINK: Are CRIMINALS obeying the law?

    If (G*d forbid) one decides to nut-up, will *HE* obey the law?

    Concealed means CONCEALED.

    ERGO, *nobody* will know if I chose “tried by twelve” over “carried by six *UNLESS* I’m REALLY forced to choose – in which case I’ll take my chances with the law and thank G*d I ignored it.

    I care not for illegal, illegitimate laws, & until they can *PROVE* that there are no more armed criminals, I will carry the tools necessary to defend my life & family.

    PERIOD.

    As in “…SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.(PERIOD).

  2. You know this is pacifism in a nutshell.
    Pacifists; They’re against sticking knives in people so they demonstrate against doctors and hospitals.
    I doubt you can convince them that it is the depraved heart and not the object that causes the problems, although if people are all basically good, why fear weapons in the hands of good people?

    1. Pacifist believe that violence, or the threat thereof, is unnecessary. Period, end of story. A pacifist will stand on that conviction in the face of in enemy death, and I certainly respect them for being willing to stand on and for their principles.

      Anti-gun folks aren’t pacifists. They still want the government to have guns, they just don’t want the common folk to have them. They aren’t against violence, they’re just against certain categories of violence committed by certain categories of their subjects. Just listen to their rhetoric, *gun* violence this, *gun* crime that.

      I don’t care what tool is used to commit the violence. I care who it was committed against. Gangbangers can shoot each other all day long, and I’ll even buy them the ammo, if they can stop catching innocents in the crossfire. Someone tries to rape a co-Ed? I hope she’s packing a gun and shoots the fucker dead.

      Violence against those who mean you no harm is wrong. Violence against those who would hurt, kill, or violate you? That’s called civilization.
