Obama: U.S. Murder Rates…Larger…By A Mile

Obama
is using his Muslim Jihadist Taqiyyah again.
Remember
the Fascists always cover-up their lies with more…well…more lies. An above all don’t confuse a Nazi Liberals with
the Facts…they’ll just change the subject.
While
recently misleading students in a speech at a South Carolina college, Barak Obama tossed a few gun control whoppers into the audience.
“Our homicide rates,” Obama began, “are so much larger than other
industrialized countries, by like a mile.”
I’m
here to tell you that Obama isn’t stupid, illiterate, or ignorant. HE JUST LIES, HE CAN’T TELL
THE TRUTH, IT IS SOMETHING FORIGN TO HIM.
Obama’s
bigger deception is more subtle; implying that our homicide rate is an America-wide
problem.
Fact is, a hugely disproportionate number of homicides are related to
inner-city drug and gang problems. There is, not surprisingly, a strong statistical
correlation between sociopaths in gangs and assaults, muggings, rapes,
stabbings and shootings. Bad people, not guns, are the determinant variable.
Just 20 cities, with only 7% of the population, account for over 20% of all of
American homicides! That tells you what, and where, the problem is centralized,
so it is not a national problem as Obama says. If mayors in these cities took
gang and illegal drug violence seriously — say as seriously as they take
campaign fundraising — America’s homicide rate would drop below international
averages for industrialized countries.
Continuing
his speech, Obama then lied again claiming that: “Most of that is attributable to
the easy, ready availability of firearms, particularly handguns.”
But
that’s also a lie.
In
America right now, and particularly in California, we have more guns in circulation, particularly more handguns, and we
have less crime.
Firearm and handgun sales have been steadily rising for decades, while
the gun violence rate has been steadily falling during that same period. The
last time the violent crime rate was as low as it is today was the 1960s, an
era when you could order a gun from the Sears catalogue and have it shipped by
the U.S. post office right to your doorstep. Back then high schoolers took guns
on yellow buses to compete on school-sanctioned shooting teams.
If the availability of guns were the cause of
wanton violence, the streets of Natchitoches, Louisiana (population 18,000, and
being a southern town, likely armed to the teeth) would be running red with
blood.
One
rule of propaganda is to keep your ruse simple. People and their misbehaviors
are complex. “Guns are bad” is simple.
The
big collective lie, assembled from parts of President Obama’s speech, is that
increased gun control measures would help keep guns away from criminals and
thereby reduce America’s homicide rate. That argument is based on the false
premise that laws stop bad guys from getting guns in the first place. And/or
the lie that most of those in federal and state legislatures believe – that
laws in general prevent crime period.
If gun control did indeed work, then it would have. In the 1970s and
1980s, gun control was publicly popular and passed at every level of government
– city, county, state and federal. During that period, gun violence erupted
nationwide. Starting in the 1990s governments reversed that trend, repealing
gun control laws, expanding gun owner rights and getting tougher on repeat
violent offenders. As a result of these criminal control laws, violent crime –
including homicides – plummeted.
Except
that is, in Chicago, Detroit, Washington D.C. and other places where
politicians never met a gun control law they didn’t like. These cities remained
among the deadliest places in the nation if not the world.
A
recent Pew Study Research Center poll revealed that for the first time in two decades more Americans are
saying gun rights are more important than gun control. The reason is partly due
to Pew’s other finding; by a 57-38 margin, people believe guns help protect
against crime.
With
few exceptions, this clear understanding was shared by everyone across most
demographic groups — men, women, all age groups, races, people with every level
of education, all Republicans, independents, most Democrats [conservative and
moderate], parents, non-parents, urbanites, suburbanites, and rural dwellers … the only people immune to the
inarguable fact that guns prevent crime were Nazi liberal Democrats (that
figures).
There
are three main reasons that the nation (save intellectually isolated statists)
have learned the value of armed self-defense: First, people are realizing that
guns are effective in deterring or preventing crime. Be it personal experience,
news stories, the ISIS threats, or the fact that mass public shootings always
occur in “GUN FREE ZONES,” reality has
brought the efficacy of gun ownership into sharp perspective. Unless of
course one is not in touch with reality, or’ one has an agenda to disarm
America to make total helpless dependents of them.
Second,
people increasingly realize that gun control supporters’ shrill warnings,
repeated ad nauseum, have proven false. In the 1970s, they claimed that if handguns
were not banned, crime rates would soar. Then they claimed that if people were
allowed to carry guns for protection away from home, crime would soar. Then
they claimed that if semi-automatic rifles weren’t banned, crime would soar. Meanwhile, handgun ownership has tripled 42 states, accounting for
three-fourths of the U.S. population, have Right-to-Carry laws, and Americans
have been buying semi-automatic rifles like discount manna. Simultaneously, the
nation’s violent crime rate has fallen to a 43-year low, with murder at a
60-year low.
Gun
accidents are also at all-time lows.
Third,
and perhaps most significantly, people are waking up to the fact and increasingly
associate the right to keep and bear arms with personal freedom, just as the
Founding Fathers did over 200 years ago. The gun ban lobby claimed for decades
that the right to keep and bear arms belonged only to the state. As their
legislative losses mounted, gun ban activists started claiming that the right
to arms belonged only to people serving in state militias. But when the Supreme
Court finally took a case that allowed it to review that question, their ruling
echoed the research of numerous constitutional scholars; that the Second Amendment protects a fundamental individual right.
Your individual right my friend.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Don’t believe the lies of the elitist Nazis, whether
they are a local city councilman or the President of the United States. This
mistake has led to tyranny throughout history.
Keep
marching forward with the great swath of Americans who have already concluded
that their right to arms is important, that their guns do in fact prevent
crime, and that ‘The People’ shall never retreat from the anti-intellectual
tyranny of the gun banning minority, no matter how many billionaires finance
that social-engineering despotic project.
