Comprehension Incomprehenable: What Part of Reality & Facts Don’t Folks Get?

January 14, 2013 by Carrie K. Hutchens

It’s unbelievable! Comprehension incomprehenable. How many times do the facts have to be given and how many times do they have to be explained before folks get it? What part of reality and facts fly over their heads? One can only wonder and hope it isn’t catching.

Miss New York, Mallory Hagan (according to ABC news) was crowned Miss American 2013, but not before she spit out some astonishing thoughts that do represent too many of the people hanging out in the USA today.

“In the wake of the Newtown tragedy there has been a lot of talk about gun control,” Champion said, “One solution being proposed is an armed guard in every school. Do you think that would make our schools safer?”

Hagan responded, “I don’t think the proper way to fight violence is with violence.

The presence of an armed guard is not violence in action. It is a prevention. However, if someone rushed into a school ready to blow away the kids, would Ms. Hagan prefer that it is a specially trained officer or guard that intercedes or the unarmed school counselor who may have read textbooks by some utopian authors? Me? I’ll take the trained armed guard or police officer.

Hagan goes on to say:

I think the proper way is to educate people on guns and the ways we can use them properly. We can lock them up, we can have gun safety classes, we can have a longer waiting period.”

Wait! She wants to educate someone who is mentally ill on guns and ways to use them properly? Gun safety classes and longer waiting periods?

I will say this very, very slow.

Ms. Hagan, the shooter at the Sandy Hook school did NOT purchase the weapons he used. He took the weapons illegally for illegal purposes. Your theory of educating him on guns, gun safety classes and longer waiting periods does not apply in this tragic case. In short, your theory — no matter how pretty and delightful it sounds — is totally irrelevant to the facts at hand.

You, Ms. Hagan, and those such as you, keep talking about making new rules or bans that would mostly only apply to the law-abiding citizens anyway. Can’t you understand that the criminals and mentally ill people don’t give the slightest darn what the rules are, except maybe to find a way around them? Most of them are simply going to steal the guns or buy them illegally off the street. So, what part of that don’t you understand?

Reality oriented people keep trying to tell all you “let’s make some more rules for the law-abiding citizens to fight what the criminals and mentally ill are doing” people — that your reaction and solution does not make sense.

Stop and think.

Pervert teenage boy tries to touch a girl improperly in the school hallway. Girl slaps boy. Teacher is witness to the incident and is therefore required to go to sexual harassment in the work place classes.

Same thing. Makes as much sense.

Wrong people are being held accountable and the suggestion they should have classes, requirements and bans that aren’t even relevant to what transpired — is irrational thought and reaction!

The Sandy Hock tragedy had nothing to do with gun laws being too lax. The shooter didn’t acquire the weapon or weapons legally. He was a kid with mental problems. And that is what everybody keeps forgetting or passing over , as they strive to punish the legit gun owners, who had nothing to do with this horrible incident.

Bans and new gun ownership rules and regulations?

What part of the facts don’t some people get?

The Sandy Hook shooter wasn’t a legal gun owner, nor had he applied to be.

Gun Control: Liberals Rush to Use the Tragic Death of Little Children

January 8, 2013 by Carrie K. Hutchens

How pathetic! Radical liberals are rushing to use the tragic death of little children to push through their gun control agendas? Are we really to be impressed?

Babies were wrongly killed in Newtown, but it had nothing to do with lax gun control laws. It had to do with a young man that had some serious mental problems. A young man that didn’t go buy any gun he used. He stole them.

So, the question becomes…

Why are the radical liberals going after the rights of “legal gun owners”, for what this young man wrongly did?

They didn’t kill those babies. Nor did any gun law assist the killer in killing.

So, why are they — the legal gun owners — being called to pay the price for a young man that did wrongly do this monstrous act? Why are their rights being called into question, when it wasn’t the law that was lax, but merely a young man in mental distress that did something horrendous and happened to use a gun to fulfill what he would have probably fulfilled one way or another anyways?

It’s time for common sense to step in and the radical liberals to be halted in their irrational tracks.

Legal gun owners did not harm the innocent babies in Newtown — it was an irrational young man with mental problems that targeted the little ones and gave the radical liberals a crisis to play upon! It’s time to take the crisis away from them and put it where it belongs — it’s time to blame the shooter and whatever made him do it!

Just WHO is in Charge Here: The People or Career Politicians

January 6, 2013 by admin

Something is mighty wrong! Just WHO is in charge? “We the People” or they — the “Career Politicians“?

We voted for the elected officials with the once upon a time belief they were going to be representing us. Instead, we keep finding out there are politicians that voted on ObamaCare without even knowing what was in the bill or how it might adversely affect “the people”. Did they even care? After all, they are allowed exclusion from what they are forcing upon us, so it’s no big deal, it appears.

Now, it seems there is possibly a secret discussion going on to push through gun control issues. “Secret”? Secret from us — the ones that are supposed to have our wishes represented? Secret from us — the people they are supposed to be listening to?

It’s always been questionable, but the “in your face” disregard for the opinion of the citizens, has gotten out of hand. It has become a statement by appearance & actions that once in office, some of these elected officials think their “ideology” is what is good for us little idiots that voted for them and they will decide for us, since our decider is defective and unenlightened. So, rather than represent us — they dictate to us and herd us to wherever they think we should be or to whatever they think should be done unto us.

I guess our “decider’s” are defective after all. We are the idiots that voted for these people with their little personal agendas. Maybe it’s time we tell them just who is in charge and that it is NOT THEM. Time to tell them their little games will no longer be tolerated. Next election, let’s vote for some trustworthy adults who understand they represent the people, not themselves and not whatever “cause” they “personally” support in spite of us!

Yes, next election, let’s take back our authority, vote for servants of the people and retire the career politicians who have forgotten who is supposed to be in charge. Yes, let’s retire them to the land of ObamaCare and the Gun Free Zones that they created and make sure they, too, get to share in their creations. Retire and unexempt them to the “real world” and “real results”. Maybe then they will see who the true idiots really are!

ACLU Declares ObamaCare to be Constitutional?

January 6, 2013 by admin

ACLU doesn’t appear to like people of religion much, especially if it be Christian in nature, so it’s not surprising they claim ObamaCare and its HHS mandate constitutional. This opinion though, is coming from a group that cried discrimination, or some such thing, involving (in the Kansas City area) an ordinance they helped write. Ooops! Change of mind? Time not to sue self? Big hope not many heard about this little boo boo?

I don’t know what came of the situation or how it got swept under the rug of “hush”, but it does prove a point. Just because the ACLU says something is or is not constitutional — does not make it so. It is merely their position and opinion. They, like everyone else, have to go to court and get a ruling. Well, unless they scare some little person or business with the threat of litigation that the later can’t afford. Then, they might win by “bulliness”, not because they actually had a fair and true case.

One thing I would like to hear the ACLU explain…

How is no co-pay for birth control not discrimination against those who have to pay a co-pay for life-saving meds?

If corporations can decide to be democrat or republican or a dem-pub and pick a candidate to donate money to, why can’t a corporation decide whether it wants to be secular or religious? And, if it wants to be religious, why can’t it pick what religion and decide not to contribute to something it totally doesn’t believe in? Like if it doesn’t believe in Obama, it shouldn’t have to donate to him, should it?

The ACLU is nothing more than a group of lawyers with opinions. It is not the say-so’er or decider on any given matter, beyond whether they believe there is a case and wish to handle it or not. They happen to think the HHS mandate is constitutional? Many think otherwise. The ACLU declaration isn’t the rule of law — it’s merely an opinion. Everyone has one — including them.

A Future World Remembered

January 4, 2013 by Carrie K. Hutchens

Some believe the morning sun hides somewhere behind the iron walls of a future world many thought never to be, but none know for sure. It, too, perhaps was destroyed in those days of madness and banned from existence as so many things became outlawed and demonized for the profit of the few. The few who thought they had the answers to all things and blessed with the ability to lift their vile lives to the royalty of the gods.

The moments of the elite scorched the earth and danced in joy, as it watched the masses withered into a broken people struggling desperately to survive one moment to the next. And then it was over.

An army of the faithful fools, who had given the elite their death blow of wealth and power, rose up from the devastation they had blindly carried out and demanded their due. The elite laughed. Did any truly believe their deceitful word to be true and meant?

The laughter was swiftly silenced, as the army of revenge lashed out to crush the ruling ones. Some died in agony, while others fled to face a slow death of their own creation. For in those last moments, locked from their hoards of abundance, they, too, faced the man-made scarcity of necessities they had imposed upon their unwilling subjects. And, as their cries of utter torment reached into the moment of defeat, there was no mercy to embrace or to ease. It was for them what they had so excitedly bestowed upon those restricted from the celebrity of the self-proclaimed enlightenment.

There was no true delight, except by those whose hearts dined on the fruits of revenge, for as the last cry echoed against the walls of deceit and ignorance, the knowledge that only a few might survive was the only thing left abundant. Time was little. Hope was none. There was no sun shining to bid a new day. No sun to scare away the demons and the hopelessness of reality remembered. No sun to cast a shadow to hide the hideous knowledge sucking the life from all.

It could have been different. The madness could have been stopped. If only it had been, before it was too late.

The “Fiscal Cliff” Fall-Out: No Free Ride for Us

January 3, 2013 by admin

Many of us don’t get to put off paying bills or lift our debt ceiling via threat of throwing a tantrum or simply because we won’t take “no” for an answer. Most of us have to live by strict rules of paying our bills or paying the price for failure to do so. Why then does the government get a free ride on their responsibility and leave us negatively affected by their failure to live up to it?

When the dust settles, will the all-knowing supporters of ObamaCare finally see all that was in that bill that they didn’t read or understand? They, too, should have to shoulder the very same cost the rest of us do and receive medical care equal to the lowliest of citizens. If it is good enough for us — it is good enough for the government people who forced it upon us. It’s time they pay for the choices they make, rather than getting the free ride and leaving us stuck with their grievous and unnecessary mistakes.

Maybe if those failing to represent the people have to share in the results of their carelessness and disregard, they will no longer be so careless and have some regard for the outcome. Maybe then, they will understand the extent and seriousness of the “fiscal cliff” fall-out and come to realize — this isn’t a game! This is real life with real consequences affecting real people!

Game over. Time to stop playing make-believe.
