Rifles, pistols, shotguns, firearms and the right to carry them openly and concealed continues to be a hot topic in light of recent gun shootings and rampages. Stricter gun control laws are not the answer to preventing the obscenities of the grim of Aurora, Colorado, or even Columbine and the Sikh Temple. People spitting venom at those diligent in their right to bearing arms take no responsibility in addressing the core root of the problem. Instead they want to stick a Band-aid on the problem without addressing what caused the wound in the first place. One need only look at places like Chicago to understand the failures of excessive gun control laws.
Our Founding Fathers knew how fragile the infant nation was yet holding the historical knowledge of tyranny and the inner ring of hierarchy of the British Crown of Great Britain. According to the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights included in the Constitution of the United States any free state must have the ability to protect itself and, therefore, must enable its citizens the right to bear arms. This is among the basic mortal tangible means of protecting one’s family, property and self. It is also among the simple means of sustaining them as well in providing food and raiment whether on a regular lifestyle basis or in times of emergency.

King George lll through the channels of his tyrannical authorities and aristocracies provided the establishment of the necessary right to bear arms for the colonies. Because of Britain’s plunderings, deceits and overarching taxes, the government of Great Britain spawned that innate God-given quality in man to be inspired into pursuing happiness through freedom. They enabled that personal power and drive in the hearts of the colonies to protect what they have and to stand by that human right to do so.
Though despicable the deeds of the Kingdom, their actions surfaced many of the cherished rights that the Fathers outlined as provided of God in the Constitution of the United States of America. Is it not the twisted tyranny of King George lll to authorize the seizure of proud colonists on the seas and coerce them into turning on their brethren or suffer death themselves? Is it not insufferable of a king-ruled government to incite natives of the New World to rise against the colonists thus making them desperate under the thumb of the King? Is it not oppressive to prevent a people to expand economically via trade with the rest of the world just to keep them suppressed in liberty under the King? These such oppressions have given the luster to the carefully crafted and simple Second Amendment of the right to bear arms. It is because liberty is not free! It must be constantly protected from dangers and threats both foreign and domestic. That which continually encroaches on personal liberty will eventually reach a point of charging the individual instinct of a person into protecting themselves.

All things are preparatory to something else. The King was raised and allowed to inflict his madness on the colonists. In turn, the hearts of choice men forged a document, a stance, providing the means of expanding the greatest nation the Earth has ever seen. They understood that happiness through liberty can be achieved through worshiping as one sees fit. They knew that what a man earns a man may own - and protect! They empowered a people to form a representative government. Through the right to bear arms they empowered a people to govern and protect their own dominion, property and life. Through the establishment of this pristine nation we’ve seen an unprecedented advancement in medicine, technology, sciences and even a knowledge of greater negative challenges.
The horrors of James Holmes in Aurora, Colorado, killing 12 are not indicative of the evils of arms. The Sikh Temple shootings killing 7 in Wisconsin are not red flags of the evils of arms. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed 13 at Columbine High School but yet the guns didn’t pull the triggers themselves - people did. Charles Raymond Starkweather killed 11 people in Nebraska and Wyoming with a shotgun. These incidents sparked outrage and invoked scores of gun control laws throughout all states across the nation. Sure, we need laws amenable according to our times but are we not obviously missing the mark? Is it not possible that by gaining a negative attitude toward firearms from these incidents we thus endanger a basic right of protection and lifestyle secured by the ink of the Founding Fathers?

According to Wikipedia gun violence carried a heavy toll in 2007. 31,224 deaths occurred by way of gunfire. Sounds pretty steep and good cause for emotional uprising? Well, let us take a look at the the same year for vehicle deaths. 41,059 people lost their lives on the roads but where’s the outrage? Far less tight regulations are placed on automobiles and the acquisition of licences thereof than are placed on firearms. The exact cause of unbalanced outrage is unsure but it seems that people are much more apt to place blame on things that are much less common (guns or firearms) for American households than on things considered vital and necessary (automobiles). After all it’s easier to manage and less intrusive on the American family than to go after automobile legislation.
Illinois has some of the most stringent gun control laws in the United States. However, just look at Chicago’s record and understand the foolishness of the bureaucracy. Since 2001, we’ve lost more than 2,000 servicemen and women in Afghanistan. Compare that up to Chicago alone which graces an outstanding 5,000 gun deaths. Continual gun legislation has done nothing to the death rate attributed to firearms in Chicago.
Are we at risk from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)?
I’ve stated it many times before that in order to cure a problem you don’t bandage the symptoms or by-products. You attack and solve the root problem at the source. The men and women pulling the triggers of firearms against other human beings are doing so for some skewed perspective on their environment. Whether suicide or homicide it is an illness of the mind how they currently view the world. Most, I submit, stems from the home and the upbringing of that person. It’s not this in all cases but the home is where most all the foundational social and spiritual nourishment comes from. Should we not start seriously addressing the home in this country? Should not our focus be on the positive prosperity of the home and less on the legislative orders against firearms? It’s a proven fact that the tighter your grip the more slips between your fingers. Politicizing firearms has only expanded them on the underground. Work to enable families to solve problems at home and I bet you’ll prevent many future gun rampages.
In closing I link a quote by President Ronald Reagan whereby he exhorts the people to reject the idea that when a law is broken it is society to blame instead of the lawbreaker him or herself. The premiere silent snake infecting the hearts and minds of the United States citizen is the idea that there should be no personal responsibility. There should be equal or more punishment placed on society than on the individual trespassing the laws. This idea is repulsive and has been the cause of the downfall of many nations throughout history. We need not condemn firearms, the prime focus of the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, for the tragedies of mass murder but rather ourselves for not addressing where the problems originate - the home.
