My two cents on the prohibition of guns

I just unsubscribed from the boldprogressives.org mailing list.  Why?  Because I received a message from them asking me to join their push to pressure lawmakers to pass "common-sense gun legislation".  That's a fancy way of saying "make it harder for people to get guns that can kill other people".

Although I lean progressive, I'm also for increased freedom.  That means I'm opposed to less freedom.

I want everyone to have the freedom to do whatever they choose so long as it doesn't violate someone else.  Owning a gun - any kind of gun - violates no one in and of itself.  It's how the gun is used that carries that potential.  I was under the impression murder is already illegal. Prohibition is by definition the restriction of freedom.  I'm not down with that.

Listen, unlike many of my friends, I don't dig guns.  I don't own one, and I rarely fire one.  I'm a dude who believes that if you want peace you must be peaceful.  But I'm not going to join anyone in the push to keep other people from a freedom so important the founders of the American nation saw only freedom of expression as more important within the Bill of Rights.

Are you aware that a man in China attacked a bunch of school children with a knife the day before the Connecticut shooting?  People in America are "up in arms" over guns.  Kind of ironic, huh?  They want to ban this gun or that gun.  Hell, what if they were successful in banning ALL guns?!  Would they try to outlaw cutlery next?  That's just ridiculous.  People need it to cook.  Even if they did, the darkness in human hearts is what kills people.  Not weapons.  Weapons are just tools.  Take one away, another can easily be chosen.  Easily.

Besides, when has prohibition of anything ever worked?  How's that working for pot smokers?  How did that work with booze in the '20s?  We got the gang wars.  Prohibition of drugs today fuels the same thing, just making a few people rich off the danger.  The danger that is created by prohibition!  The danger that would be eliminated by ending prohibition.

Also, it is my spiritual belief that we are all born sovereign beings.  You do not have the right to remove choices from other sovereign beings, much in the same way our country does not have the right to dictate what another sovereign nation can or cannot do.  Yet, we operate as if we do.

Obviously there has been a noticeable surge in incidents of gun violence.  It's an understandable knee-jerk reaction to think we should restrict access to guns to keep these things from happening.  I just don't think less freedom is going to make us safer, and I believe there's evidence to show that any time society tries to restrict something it simply adds to the danger attached to whatever it is.  It makes me sad to see good people caught up in the furor over guns.  Guns didn't kill the those poor kids in Connecticut.  Adam Lanza did.  At least that's what we've been told.  We've also been told he killed himself.  If his mission was suicide, he could have made a home made bomb and accomplished the same thing.  He could have slit their throats with a cook's knife before jumping off a bridge.

Outlawing guns will never keep guns away from killers any more than the Drug War has kept pot away from college students.  It will just make them more expensive, and more dangerous - while making every one of us just a little less free to make our own choices.  

Sikh temple shooting: Illuminati act to stop Disclosure?

As soon as I learned about the mass shooting at a Sikh temple I assumed  it was another act by the increasingly desperate Illuminati.  Only, I assumed it was part of a move to set up public opinion against guns so they could use this series of events (including the James Holmes' debacle) as a springboard to curtail American's second amendment rights.

I may have made that assumption too quickly.

I just learned that Amardeep Kaleka's father was shot and killed in this new event.  For those who don't know, Kaleka is the filmmaker who has teamed up with Dr. Steven Greer from the Disclosure Project to release the upcoming groundbreaking documentary SIRIUS.

Let's look at what we know.
1) Amardeep Kaleka's father was the president of the Sikh temple.
2) The alleged shooter is an American armed services veteran.
3) There are rumors (with corroborative crop circles) that August 4, 2012 was a deadline given to the Iluminati by the galactics to start "Disclosure", the official revelation to humanity that we are not and have never been alone on this planet.
4) There are rumors that the James Holmes shooting was an attempt to postpone that Disclosure
5) This newest shooting is aimed at the family of the filmmaker behind a documentary that is "poised to make crowd funding history".
6) The gunman was conveniently shot to death by police, so American media can tell the public whatever they want about this guy and it'll become our "truth".

It might be a small world after all, but I find it difficult to believe that a mass shooting the day after the Disclosure deadline kills the father of the director of the Disclosure Project's magnum opus, and it's all just a coincidence.  Can you?

Rather, I believe it's much more likely a practically overt and obviously desperate attempt to stop the Disclosure train.  But they can't stop this train.  Such blatant acts only serve to awaken the populace more and more to the deeds they've done. Like 9/11, this latest crime should end up shining more light on the dark deeds of the Illuminati for all to see.
