GUN CONTROL LAWS HAVE NO DISCERNABLE EFFECT ON CRIME.

So says a master summary of more than 50 studies reviewing the hundreds, maybe thousands, of gun control laws enacted since the mid-1970s.

Now before you go assuming that these findings were compiled by the National Rifle Association or some far-right wacko cult, know this: This was the conclusion of the Center for Disease Control, a FEDERAL AGENCY controlled by the undeniably gun-hostile Department of Health and Human Services…

Believe me, if there were any way in the Universe that this data could have been spun, twisted, phrased, and presented in a way that looked favorably on all the paper, ink, time, money, energy, grief, heartache, and infringement of personal liberty these laws have consumed and caused, it WOULD HAVE BEEN. But there was no such way – because all these laws have added up to is a whole lot of nothing…

In fact, there are many reliable, unbiased studies out there that indicate violent crime INCREASES as more gun control regulations are implemented!

Now don’t read me wrong, here. This Big Brother craziness is BIGGER than simple six-shooters. I’m writing this to you today so that you’ll realize that the very government you depend on to protect some group of rights you DO believe in (especially when it comes to your healthcare freedoms and medical options) could turn on you in a second….

And when they do, you’ll regret not having spoken up about your Second Amendment rights when you had the chance – whether you’re a gun owner or not…

Why? Because if the government is allowed to arbitrarily regulate even this most fundamental of constitutionally guaranteed freedoms under the guise of “public health,” imagine how easily they could take charge of everything else. Imagine every aspect of your life being restricted in the name of what THEY think is best for your health: Your cars, TV shows, foods, medicines, homes, property, and on and on and on…

Somehow, I think the Founding Fathers intended that YOU should make these choices for yourself. Because as this example so clearly shows, when the government gets involved in things, we get only waste, fraud, deception, deceit, and an ever-tightening fist around every freedom we take for granted.
