Ted Nugent Owns Piers Morgan: 'Would you leave us the hell alone?'

In another display of stupidity by Piers Morgan, a man who decided to go to a gun range in Texas on Monday and shoot some guns and have a conversation with Ted Nugent, Morgan showed his true colors as a man who does not yet understand what America is all about. We in America do not change because some mad men do bad things to people who do not deserve it. Should we have banned all travel by airplane after 9/11 because there is always a risk of a plane being hijacked? I doubt many people would say we should have banned all air travel forever because of that, so why would be ban guns that have less to do with murder in this nation than a hammer does?

At the bottom of this blog you will see the video of the interview that Morgan did with Nugent on Monday, and I have to say that Nugent handled himself well and got out the points that needed to be made. He did not act like Alex Jones or get up and start screaming at Morgan. He made his points and Morgan, who rarely ever has a comeback to facts, kept to his usual self while trying to demonize Nugent and all other law-abiding Americans who own guns that he does not believe they should own.

Morgan, as of yet, has never really told the American people why he takes up a cause like this with assault weapons when handguns are the cause of much more of the murder and suicide in this country. He has yet to explain his rationale and after numerous attempts from myself that continues to this day on Twitter to get him to answer the question, he refuses to. That does not surprise me because, frankly, who am I and why would he care what a guy like me has to say. But I am American, I believe in a Second Amendment right that is not violated by those who do not begin to even understand it, and I am one of many who continues and will continue in the war of ideas to make sure that people like Morgan do not shape this conversation out to be something that it never should be in the first place.

After all of the times I have written about this and how many times that we have all discussed this, you would think that the American people would get it and not fall for the trap that they are falling for. This has nothing to do with murder or death of those who are innocent. If you believe Piers Morgan and others are on a crusade to end murder then you are more crazy than Alex Jones is. This has nothing to do with keeping children safe, keeping the populace as a whole safe, or lowering the murder rate. If it were, we would not be discussing bans on so-called "assault weapons" but bans on all firearms. This is not the conversation, although I would have more respect for those who believe it and will actually say it than those like Morgan who dance around it like a school kid doing the moon walk in a high school auditorium. This is about the incremental changes that those on the Left and some on the Right are willing to make to make you believe you are safer even though no gun laws will ever make anyone anywhere safer than they are right at this moment.

If you want to be safe on your person you should learn how to fire a gun and carry one with you. You should learn how to protect yourself and not get into situations where you may end up in danger. We should teach our children that guns are not bad or evil, but can cause harm to those we love or the innocent if not given the proper respect that they deserve. But most importantly we should not be afraid to call the police or talk to someone in authority when we suspect that there is someone that we know that may not be mentally stable and could have the idea of hurting others for no other reason than because they are cowards. No matter what shooting it is we hear people say that they had an idea that he or she might do this or that, but never brought it up to anyone. Why is it that these people, that after the fact say they are not surprised, did not say anything to anyone before it happened? If you believe that someone you know or have come into contact with may be a danger, you should tell someone. Maybe the person just needs someone to talk to or they need that one person to tell them to get help. No matter what they may need we know for a FACT that not saying anything at all has led to the deaths of innocent people and that telling someone in those cases could have hurt nothing at all. I am not saying it would have saved a life, but we will never know.

The Stupidity of Ignorance: Our Society is Falling Apart!

The title to this piece could be a book in itself, but because it is only a blog and I only have a short amount of time to work on it I will make it as brief as possible. I have been writing extensively about gun control legislation being passed in the states and being proposed on the federal level because I think it is important for people to know about, not because I really want to do it. I wish I could write about dumb things that meant nothing all day, and people would come to read it and be happy knowing their nation was on the right track. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

Every time a mass shooting happens, we here the same things from the Left. I am not here to go through those same talking points again, because I have done that already. What I want to show you, as I write this tonight, is not the stupidity being displayed but the underlying cause for the fear that is being spread. Case in point: a 5-year-old being threatened by school officials that he may be suspended...and for WHAT you might ask? Oh..yeah...he made a gun out of Legos at an after school program that he was attending!!!

Here is where the stupidity should become illegal everyone, because this young man did not make this gun because he secretly wants to shoot all the other 5 year old children in the school, but because he just wanted to make a gun! His mother says,"I was given a book and they told me he’s going to be suspended if he does it again and to sign here,". 

The school administration says the making of the gun can be taken as a threat, and if it happens again the child will be thrown out of school. This seems to be a little harsh, but not unexpected coming from a public school and their zero-tolerance policy that has, by all accounts, actually cost people their lives rather than saved any in the process. The whole argument over zero-tolerance BS has been made by many people, including me, in the past so I will not waste time on that again. But what we have here is one of the reasons why this society is falling apart at the seams! We are making criminals out of children for being children and excusing the behavior of the sickest individuals in the nation and blaming their crimes on the guns. Can you see something wrong with this?

The media is not having a conversation about mental illness, are they? All of these individuals who have gone in and shot up these schools or even workplaces all have some mental problem in their past, yet today we do not talk about that, we talk about the guns they supposedly used in the killing sprees that they went on. We do not talk about the problems these people may or may not have had, but we talk about the guns they were carrying as i the guns told these people to go shoot kids, the elderly, or anyone else for that matter. Normal thinking people know this is not the way forward, but those who want to push an agenda forget that while they push their agenda the REAL problems continue, and they have nothing at all to do with the weapons that are being used.

This is a societal problem, one that cannot be fixed with more laws. The laws we have on the books have not stooped people from killing each other, so maybe it is time we went to a plan B and came up with a new solution. We live in a society where we treat each other like crap for not thinking how the next person thinks, for being fat or maybe not speaking like everyone else. We live in a society full of kids who are growing up thinking it is right to go out and have unprotected, per-marital sexual relations with multiple people (sometimes at one time) and that abortions on demand are as normal as stopping into a Taco Bell drive-thru and ordering a Number 5 on the menu! We live in a society where our entertainers glorify the killing of others over money, women, and just because they feel like it while those same entertainers tell the people it is wrong to own the guns these same entertainers use to draw people into the theaters. If I did not know any better, I would think this society has been so perverted, so displaced with filth, that no matter what we do at this point nothing will ever fix the damage that has been done by those who claim to actually want to help this nation.

And now, just like many other occasions that I have written about over the years, a little boy could be suspended if he makes another Lego gun at an after school program!!! It is a LEGO GUN, NO ONE IS IN DANGER! But that does not matter, because the real reason they do not want the child to be open and make what he wishes is to show the child that guns are bad. The Leftist scum in these schools want to show children there is no need for guns, so the next generation will be even more profoundly against our right to protect ourselves. This is the blind leading the future leaders of tomorrow, and these little ones will be the ones who lead when I am too old to fight back against their hair-brained schemes of keeping us safe, not with guns, but with some toy robot bought behind a Wal-Mart in 45 years for a few thousand dollars! Guns are bad, and THAT is the real lesson they want this child to learn. I have said it before and I will say it again: if your child is in a public school and you have the means of educating them another way and you do not, I consider that more of an abuse of the child most other abuses defined by law (besides beating them senseless or not feeding them...obviously that is much worse...but you get the point!).

There is something wrong with society, not with the Constitution! We have the right to bear arms for a reason, and that reason is not outdated. If we do not start treating each other better, speaking to each other better, or promoting and believing in the value of life more than this nation will only get worse over time. We are throwing away a GIFT that we were given over 200 years ago to make ourselves feel better about something that we cannot control when there are things we can control that we are NOT worried about.

it is time we started to fix what we CAN fix, and allow everything else to happen because some things in life YOU cannot control...no matter what you do! I know that is sad, and I know that might break your little heart, but it is true!

The Hypocrisy Shows Its Little Head

Today we heard the President of the United States give a speech that was, I suppose, intended to make you and I feel bad enough to hand in our guns and not want a clip with over ten bullets. Why would someone need a magazine like that, some have asked. I ask why is it your place to tell me what kind of weapon or what kind of magazine I should have? Is this really about the children or about pushing the United States and their people to the brink by taking away what they hold closest to them? It seems nothing the President has proposed will do anything to stop the criminal element, especially in a city like Chicago, from getting weapons that are much more powerful than those the regular citizens would have under new legislation.

So one must ask how those citizens would be caring for themselves and their families would be able to protect their own under legislation that only hurts them and not those who are out to hurt them? Not only that, but we see the President not even wanting to touch what comes out of Hollywood and the video game industry. Not that I disagree with that logic because I have never seen a movie kill someone, but if he wants to be consistent one would think he would want to make sure all areas of gun control are covered. But because he has very good friends who have made it a point to say they are not responsible in Hollywood for the violence we see on the streets, he has decided to not even discuss it.

You all know how I feel about this and what I would do to make sure people were more safe in their homes and around others who may be a threat. Not all Americans feel comfortable around a gun, but that does not give the rights of a few more liberty than the other American's who feel they are well protected with semi-automatic guns of all kinds. Nothing that has been done so far, especially in one of the most gun-unfriendly regions in this nation, has been able to stop people from killing each other if the motive and the opportunity is there. I see no movement to making our communities safer inside the community itself, where it has to begin. You can rid the country of all legal weapons if you want, but that will not stop the killings. Those who are pushing for more legislation, on the Left and the Right, understand this more than anyone. This is a political football that no one wants to touch but when the time comes and there is a tragedy, we must make new law to hurt those that are law-abiding citizens.

One of the actions the President would like Congress to take is to make sure your doctor has the ability to alert the state that you live in and the background check that you may not be of sound mind to own a firearm. This includes doctors asking you if you own any weapons. Take away for a minute that a doctor has no legal authority to ask this question with legislation or otherwise, right in the heart of ObamaCare there are rules for keeping patient information safe. It seems the President was on board with that when the legislation passed, but now he would like to give doctors more leeway when it comes to reporting people. How can we have privacy rights when the President would like to throw them out the window of the exact legislation that he pushed and said would be better for Americans? You cannot have it both ways, everyone! You either believe in the privacy rights between a doctor and the patient or you believe the doctor should be able to report ANYTHING that he FEELS is wrong to the state.

Some other memorandums from the President were:

• Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.
• Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.
• Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities
• Propose rulemaking to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.

And there are many more, 23 in all, that direct federal agencies to do one thing or another that will have no effect on gun violence what so ever because we are not getting to the root of the problem here and those in the media and those who are memorized by the President fail to see this. His real purpose is to push Congress for a return to the Assault Weapons Ban, which in his mind is probably something that could happen or he would not mention it. I also believe that it could happen, and it is not out of the realm of possibility that we could see a return to that law, but this one would be much more damning to the regular American citizen who owns firearms.

At the end of the day, the President said nothing that would help the situation. What about the adult who is not mentally stable, but their family has no recourse because the doctor and the state do not feel there is anything they can do? A family somewhere may know someone in their family needs help, but the person refuses to get that help and the family is powerless to have them committed to get the help they need. This happens, and if we believe the accounts from Sandy Hook this IS what happened! If the mother of Adam Lanza was going to have her son committed as we are told, why did she wait? Why did she have to wait? Was there anything that new legislation could have done to make sure his mother could have had him committed a week before or even months before? The fact we do not know much about the family and the whole story is not helping matters when it comes to looking at situations like this, but a situation could arise just like it and nothing that this debate has brought out does anything to help those in need that may not feel they need the help because they are mentally disabled in some way.

This is a way to take the guns the government does not feel you have the right to have, not to keep anyone safe. Anyone out there with a brain knows that there is nothing that can be done when someone truly wants to kill someone or numerous people. Help for those people need to be available, but that is the best we can do. Taking these guns off the street will not really get them off the street, and our crime rate in cities around the nation with tough gun laws show this. We have a lot of societal problems as well we are not addressing, and that is because on one hand people feel they have the right to live in a society without guns but have the right to watch movies with people with guns. How does that make any sense? So, I can watch someone else with a gun but I cannot have one myself for protection?

Today, tweeting on his official Twitter page, Piers Morgan said: "Obama's hit the nail on the head - the right to life, especially for children, surely supercedes any other rights?"

So does this mean we should rid the country of abortion as well? The argument is that if we did outlaw abortion that women would go to the "back alleys" and have one anyway. The same rules apply here. You may outlaw a gun or a magazine, but that does not stop someone from going to a back alley and buying one. The two situations seem to have nothing to do with each other from the point of view of those who do not support the Second Amendment, but have everything in the world to do with each other! These are the same people than champion abortion rights, yet the right to own a gun is off limits because we have to protect the children? How many babies have been killed over the last decade compared to children out of the womb being killed by a semi-automatic weapon? I promise you, the abortion numbers are MUCH higher, yet we never hear those in the media take that cause up.

Makes you think, doesn't it?

This Is All About Control, Nothing About Guns!

Do you now how I know this? Do you know how I know this has nothing to do with keeping people safe, changing the society and their feelings about how we treat each other, or helping those in need? Because, the legislation that is about to become law in New York does NOTHING to really go after the criminal element that will abuse the law no matter what it is, but it does a lot to make sure the everyday citizen gets refused the type of ammo and gun they would like to have! If you think this is about keeping your little one safe, you are so wrong!

What we have here is a week of gun control fanatics hitting the airwaves and the state house's (including the White House) telling the people we need a change when the people know deep down these changes do nothing. Let's go through the list of changes that NY will be seeing following their new legislation.

• Magazine size limited from 10 to 7 rounds per clip
• Addition to the NY Assault Weapons Ban that would allow those who own them to keep them, but makes these weapons and others like it non-transferable to family. 
• Updated definition of "assault weapon" to include semi-auto handguns and shotguns. Presumably, these types of guns would also be "grandfathered" out as well, just like the AR-15 and other types of rifles. 
• Adds additional mental health requirements to physicians that would require them to alert the state if the physician would believe, rightly or wrongly, that the person may be a threat to themselves or others. There are safeguards for physicians if they do not turn someone in they feel will not hurt someone and then does hurt someone, but you would have to read the legislation to actually get the full understanding of the mental health code. 

I want to take a look at the mental health issue here for a second, because NY played lip service to this problem and did not really go after the real issue which is getting these people the help they need so these types of situations do not happen. All they did was add more of a penalty for those in the medical field that do not turn in someone if they feel they could be a threat, but even to that extent there are ways for the doctor to get around any kind of wrongdoing that the state may think they were guilty of. This legislation does nothing to help those who need it or help the families of those people who may need help get their family member the help they need more easily. Under this legislation, a person who may not be under a doctors care would still have to admit themselves voluntarily, and if they did not want to and the state did not think there was anything wrong with the person the family would be out of options.

Tomorrow the White House will announce new and sweeping changes to laws, some of which the President will make on his own. Listen people, there is a lot the President can do without breaking the law to make it more difficult for you to get guns and ammo. He may bring down NO E.O. on magazines or gun purchases, but if he were to tell the EPA to do studies and look into the environmental issues that the magazines bring, this could raise the cost of your ammo and your guns to levels you have never seen before. He does not have to do much to make it more difficult for the everyday American to go out and buy a gun.

Also, remember the President has buddies on the Right in the House. He got what he wanted out of taxes just a couple weeks ago, and he hopes he will get what he wants out of guns this time. He will never get an all-out assault weapons ban, there is no way Republicans could ever vote for that and keep their jobs, but a national database of gun owners is not out of the question. This would force anyone, no matter what kind of gun you have, to be fingerprinted and put in a database of people who own weapons in America. Not only would this be a Constitutional issue, but many Americans would never comply with this type of law. Washington has to remember that those people in the back alley selling guns out of their trunk will not be asking for fingerprints and not be telling the buyer that they cannot sell them a ten-round magazine! This will, without a doubt, open a bigger market for the gun trade all over the nation.

The people of New York need to stand up and call for the resignations of all those in their state legislature that voted for this legislation. They are limiting the rights of the law-abiding citizen so they can hinder the criminals that never listen to what the law is in the first place. All this does is hurt the everyday man or woman wanting to protect themselves, but these politicians could care less. Other nations are looking at us right now and laughing, knowing that one day soon any kind of fear that nation had of the citizens of the United States will be gone because our own government made it happen. Do not be fooled, people, there are still nations out there that would like nothing better than to land a half a million troops on the Atlantic coast and take half this nation for their own. Nations that we fought during WW2 would have never even thought about it, because the people were too well armed, but in the next decade that may not be the case.

I am not trying to scare you or even bring up the out in left field ideas that some may think about, but you never know what will happen. We have the right to bear arms not so we can hunt but so we can protect ourselves from outside enemies when our government is not able to and to protect us from the government we call our own. Individuals like Piers Morgan and others on the tube do not understand this. They think we should only have guns for hunting because the government or other governments would never try to hurt the people of America! Why would they do that for?

Why did Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Assad, and others harm their and other occupied people? Because they COULD!!

Ben Shapiro Schools Piers Morgan on 2nd Amendment, History of Guns in America

You would be correct if you said that I am taking this attack on our Second Amendment personally, because I am one of those people who believe ANYONE out there that believes they should have a gun for protection or any other means should have one. We do not have to explain ourselves to our government or anyone else for that matter, but people like Piers Morgan would believe otherwise. He seems to believe that anyone who would want an automatic or semi-automatic weapon wants to kill other people, and that is not the case. The majority of legal gun owners in this nation are law-abiding citizens that would never use any of their weapons unless it was a last resort. They use them for sport or even to go out to the range and make sure they keep up on practice. There is nothing wrong with this, yet we are being told there is.

Ben Shapiro, Editor-At-Large of Breitbart.com was recently on Piers Morgan's show to debate the Second Amendment and gun control. Shapiro handled himself VERY well, much better than Alex Jones did and Morgan was not able to get Shapiro to jump up and down like a crazy person to make people think all those who believe we should have any gun we choose are crazy people who want to kill others.

Below is the video of that interview in its entirety. It is a great watch and even though Piers Morgan did act like a child in some cases during the interview, Shapiro did not fall for his games. At one point, he tries to lump Alex Jones together with Shapiro, and that did not go over well!

As you can tell, Morgan is not happy with the fact that he is being told the TRUE meaning of the Second Amendment. I frankly do not even think that Morgan has any idea why we have a Second Amendment and truly believes it is there so we can go hunting and have a hand gun for our homes.

What he misses is that the PURPOSE of the Second Amendment is not so that we can go out and kill some deer or bear, but to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government if and when we have to. We may NEVER have to, as Shapiro points out. We may have to in the next 50-100 years, no one really knows! BUT, and that is a BIG BUT, if the time ever came when the people had to stand up against a government that became abusive, the people have the right to abolish that government and set up a government for which it meets the needs of the people of that time. Piers Morgan has never read that "little book" or the Declaration of Independence either, or he would know why we have a Second Amendment. Remember, without the Colonists having arms and the will to fight, we may not even be the country we are today. History could have been much different than it is right now.

Yes, we keep guns to keep our families safe and to go out and hunt if we choose. What Morgan does not get, and is actually very abusive toward, is that weapons have other functions than just hunting. Shapiro brings up the nations during the 19th and 20th centuries that dealt with tyrannical dictatorships and the loss of human rights, yet Morgan does not seem to care! He seems to think ti is crazy to think our government, at ANY time, would become SO powerful that they would become tyrannical and push their people to fight back. He actually seems to laugh at the notion that it could ever happen, yet that is what happened to the colonists in this nation under the rule of the British.

People like Piers Morgan and others do not understand history. They have never been taught true American history, and in the case of Morgan, who is a transplant to this country, should have been made to learn this nation's history before he was allowed to become a citizen of this great nation. He should have been taught WHY we fought a revolution, why we have the Bill of Rights, and why the restriction of those rights lead to other restrictions of other rights. He should have been made to read the Founder's arguments for the Constitution and against it, about the War between the states and why it was important to this nation, and why we the people hold the power and not those we send to Congress.

He has never been educated on this, and this is one of the reasons why he does not know what he is talking about. If he knew what he was talking about he would not say half the things that he says, because he would then know that he was flat out wrong. The reason we have a Second Amendment is to protect us from the government, not from ourselves!

Our Declaration of Independence says very clearly and wonderfully, I might add: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed." 

Just in case someone else comes around and reads this and does not understand it like those on the Left do not understand, this means that the people have the right to abolish their government as our Founder's did if they feel that it is destructive to the people. It goes on to say, and this is really important, that we do not just throw out a government for no reason at all. There should be great cause and thought that goes into it, and should be a last resort. People all through time are more accustomed to living with evil rather than fighting it, and we have seen that many times since this document was written.

So, no, it is not what I want or what many other people want. I do not want another war within the states. I do not want a war with my own government. I choose to fight with ideas and words until such time we can no longer do so. We must keep doing what we are doing now so we do not give up the fight the Founder's also fought...the war with their words. Remember, war was NOT the first choice and was not decided upon easily. There were many dealings with the crown where we gave them the chance to set our people free from the crown, and the people of the time took many beatings until they stood up to defend themselves.

The Second Amendment is there so we have that LAST RESORT. We are not there yet and we may never be, but when the people are ready to give up their guns because they are afraid of what might happen if they do not, the next Hitler, Stalin, Mao, or Assad will be knocking on our door to treat our people the same way those innocent people were treated. If and when that would happen, would you want an automatic rifle to keep you safe or would you want a handgun with 5 bullets?
