Heller Decision

First let me say I'm glad that SCOTUS came down on the side of legal gun owners. I'm having a hard time understanding why it took so flippin long for them to take a 2nd amendment case in the 1st place. I can't see what all the fuss is. It's not like it was written in some ancient language. I believe that it was kept short and simple for clarity's sake. Leave it to lawyers and politicians to screw up the meaning of a comma. I think a 5 year old can understand the 2nd amendment. I shudder to think what the people that want us to be unable to protect ourselves would be doing to the laws today if for some reason they came down the other way. A bunch of gun owners would be buying up PVC pipe and looking for land I believe. Now..Chicago and San Francisco are “in the crosshairs” so to speak. It will be interesting to see what the outcome will be.

Now..Gun owners all over America are happy…and with good reason. My personal belief is SCOTUS didn’t go far enough. They left to door cracked open for the Bloomberg’s and the Brady’s in this country to try to convince people that the mere fact that there is a gun in their home that somehow this will make them turn into serial killers. The sad part is…some people WILL believe them. What amazes me to this day is there are people who…without doing ANY research on their own will fall lock step behind whatever some taking head on television tells them. God forbid you attempt to disagree with them. They have no time for the truth, only what someone tells them. What they fail to realize is the people who preach gun control are surrounded by guns, controlled by their security details. Try to take THOSE guns away and let’s see what happens. They will pull any string they can in order to make sure THEY’RE protected, while you sit cowering in fear while 3 or 4 bad guys, who by way way don’t care if there a ban on guns…are banging down your front door, all armed, ready and willing to rob, rape and kill at will because you, as a law abiding citizen have no means to protect yourself. Screw that. I am not willing to hand over the protection of my family to anyone other than myself. Anyone who sits back and waits on the government or the police to “do something about it” will be either sorely disappointed…or dead.

People who take the position that ALL guns are bad, no one should have guns, I hate guns….I used to want to change their minds. Anymore, I don’t care. If you don’t like guns, if you’re scared of guns, whatever, that’s your problem. When the bad guys show up, you’ll be easier for them to work with. I’ll stay “clinging to my guns” and making sure my ass is covered. My family’s life is worth much more to me than some holier than thou attitude that guns are bad.
