Don't Register Your Guns!





Here is an interesting article I read the other day. You be the judge.

"Gun control and further infringements of the Second Amendment are a dangerous and controversial topic in America.  There are those that wish to control people, but an armed populace is not easily controlled.

The pro-gun control liberals in Washington seek to disarm the citizenry.  One of the first steps in disarming people is gun registration.  Second Amendment supporters know that registration leads to confiscation, and confiscation in America will lead to a Second American Revolution.

So gun owners across the nation, but particularly in Connecticut and New York right now, are defiantly opposed and resistant to gun registration.

Now a respected voice on the right, one that has previously been in favor of some gun control, has come out in staunch resistance to gun registration schemes.  Dr. Ben Carson said he no longer believes in gun registration because America’s insane national debt could turn the nation into a third-world country under martial law, a situation in which law-abiding and good people will need to be armed for protection.

Carson, the retired neurosurgeon who has been getting buzz in conservative circles, said that he changed his mind and was against gun registration because of the “sinister internal forces” that could surface in that scenario. He said he “used to think they needed to be registered, but if you register them they just come and find you and take your guns.”

“If we were only concerned about external forces, then we would be okay,” he said. “But there are some pretty sinister internal forces.”

Dr. Carson asked the audience to consider a scenario in which countries around the globe have dropped the dollar as the reserve currency, making note that Russia has threatened to do just that in retaliation for sanctions imposed upon them.

“We have a national debt that is so high, and it’s being raised even higher,” he said. “Now, the only reason we can do that is because we are the reserve currency for the world. What if that changes?”

“What if other people come along?” Carson asked, saying China and the U.N have mentioned doing the same. “We would become a third-world nation overnight. Occupy Wall Street would be a walk in the park. And all of a sudden, the things that would be going on in this country which would necessitate marital law… all this could happen very rapidly. We should be really concerned.”

James Taranto, of The Wall Street Journal, asked Carson about his previous stance on gun registration, in which he supported gun control in urban areas to keep “crazy people” from having semi-automatic rifles in high-density cities.

“Do you think the Supreme Court was wrong when it found that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to keep arms in Washington, D.C., and Chicago?” Taranto asked.

“I truly believe in Second Amendment rights,” Carson said. “I would never advocate anything to interfere with Second Amendment rights; however, I do think we have to be intelligent.”

He said his point in saying that was to address situations–like in Detroit–where people with AK-47s are mowing people down.

“We need to engage in a discussion about, ‘Is there something we can do?'” Carson said before saying that “we have to keep in mind that law-abiding American citizens absolutely should have gun rights.”

Dr. Ben Carson is of course correct, the American people must never register their guns.  The people have an inherent and natural right to keep and bear arms, for the direct purpose of keeping their “leaders” in check.  The Framers were well aware of the dangers of a tyrannical government versus an unarmed population, and did their best to ensure such a situation would never occur in America.

Unfortunately, over the years our government has indeed infringed upon our natural right to be armed, and intends to infringe even more.  As stated before, registration leads to confiscation.  A list of registered guns in this country, in the hands of our current “gestapo-like” administration, would certainly result in confiscation and the disarming of law-abiding and good citizens.

Of course, criminals don’t follow laws, so they won’t register their guns, and will remain armed.  And the government will most definitely remain armed, otherwise how will they enforce their gun control laws?

David Letterman's Top 10 Reasons to vote Democrat
#10. I vote Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want. I've decided to marry my German Shepherd.

#7. I vote Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.

#5. I vote Democrat because I'm not concerned about millions of babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive and comfy.

This would be HILARIOUS if it wasn't so true. Do you detect a level of divisiveness by certain factions of our government? So much for being an all inclusive nation. These are the idiots that we keep sending to Washington!
CONGRESS WOMAN LEE, ACTUALLY WAS OFFENDED BECAUSE THERE WERE NO AFRICAN-AMERICAN SOUNDING NAMES FOR HURRICANES.

A BLACK CONGRESSWOMAN (SHEILA JACKSON LEE OF HOUSTON, TEXAS, REPORTEDLY COMPLAINED THAT THE NAMES OF HURRICANES ARE ALL CAUCASIAN SOUNDING NAMES. SHE WOULD PREFER SOME NAMES THAT REFLECT AFRCAN-AMERICAN CULTURE SUCHAS: CHAMIQUA, TANISHA, WOEISHA SHAQUILLE, AND JAMAL.. NOT MAKING THIS UP/
SHE WOULD ALSO LIKE THE WEATHER REPORTS TO BE BROADCAST IN "LANGUAGE" THAT STREET PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND BECAUSE,ACCORDING TO HER, ONE OF THE PROBLEMS THAT HAPPENED IN NEW ORLEANS WAS, THAT BLACK PEOPLE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE SITUATION, DUE TO THE RACIALLY BIASED LANGUAGE OF THE WEATHER REPORT.

Federal Employees Paid to NOT Work?

Agencies Paid Hundreds of Employees to Not Work for at Least One Year



Federal agencies from fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2013 paid 263 employees at least one full year’s salary to sit on the sidelines and not work, and paid an additional 57,000 federal workers at least one month’s salary to stay home.

A Government Accountability Office report released on Monday found the government spent a total of $3.1 billion in the three-year period on salaries for employees on paid administrative leave, which is meant to be used primarily while investigating employees’ alleged misconduct. Of that total, agencies spent $700 million for employees on administrative leave for at least one month, and $31 million for employees paid to not work for at least one year.

There is no general statutory authority for the use of paid administrative leave, GAO said, but the auditing agency and the Office of Personnel Management have issued guidance to agencies to manage its use. OPM has provided examples for when administrative leave is appropriate, such as unavoidable tardiness of less than one hour, for hourly wage-grade employees and cases of adverse personnel actions. In the “rare circumstances” employees present a threat to the workplace, the possibility of damaging government property, or would “otherwise jeopardize legitimate government interests,” agencies can place the employees on paid administrative leave. Agencies often invoke their right to use this type of leave after providing advance notice of a suspension or firing.

Essentially, administrative leave allows agencies to take employees off the job without punishing them in a way that violates due process or is appealable to entities such as the Merit Systems Protection Board. This enables agencies to conduct investigations into alleged wrongdoing.

This has frequently drawn the ire of lawmakers on Capitol Hill, who say the policy allows malfeasant feds to take paid vacations while their cases are sifted through the bloated and bottlenecked federal bureaucracy. The GAO report was requested by Republican oversight leaders in Congress, namely Sens. Chuck Grassley, Iowa, and Tom Coburn, Okla., as well as Rep. Darrell Issa, Calif.

“The GAO report offers new details on the extent to which federal agencies are granting employees -- included those facing disciplinary action -- taxpayer-funded vacations for extended periods of time,” said Issa, who chairs the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, in a statement to Government Executive. “Gross overuse of paid administrative leave wastes taxpayer funds and underscores dysfunctional agency management that often prefers to dither on personnel problems rather than expeditiously resolve them.”

GAO was able to access administrative leave data through OPM’s Enterprise Human Resources Integration payroll system. OPM has never provided guidance on how to quantify admin leave, however, and agencies therefore use differing definitions. Some payroll providers, for example, count paid federal holidays as paid administrative leave. Others count paid absences specifically authorized by Congress -- including post-organ donation recovery, official time, attending law enforcement funerals and rehabilitation from injuries suffered while serving abroad -- as admin leave, even though OPM has said they should not be included in the tally.

After excluding federal holidays from the data, agencies provided employees with a total of 9.94 million days of paid administrative leave between fiscal years 2011 and 2013, or about five days per employee. About 3 percent of the federal workforce charged at least one month of administrative leave, while 69 employees charged between 1.5 and three years.

About 77 percent of the salary costs associated with paid admin leave went to employees who took 20 days or less. At an organization like the U.S. Agency for International Development, this could simply be the grace period relocated employees have to adjust to their new posts. Still, nearly one in four federal dollars spent on paid administrative leave went to long-term users, most likely those who were facing a negative action from their agency.

Other reasons agencies provided to GAO for authorizing administrative leave included physical-fitness related activities, vacation and professional development.

In its report, GAO called paid admin leave an important tool for agencies, but said it must be “managed effectively.” GAO also recommended OPM create governmentwide standards for administrative leave reporting, so the information does not lead to “decisions based on faulty conclusions that stem from inaccurate data.”  

OPM agreed to form a working group in 2015 to establish such guidance.

What Have They done for History in America" Hospital? Charity? Schools? Civil Rights?




Here is a post that a loyal retired Vet posted on a forum that I was recently on. This Patriot makes a very good point and really gets one to thinking.
Recently folks were talking about "what Islam has and hasn't done for the world"......here is a great response!

Here ya go my friends, I just present this as a few FACTS not the misguided nonsense the "progressive LEFT" tries to feed us........
Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital?
Have you heard a Muslim orchestra?
Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade?
Have you witnessed a Muslim charity?
Have you shaken hands with a Muslim Girl Scout?
Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper?
The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY ???
The President, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too,
that Islam has always been a part of America 's history."
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE
Dear Mr. Obama:
Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.

Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day?
Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
Can you show me one Muslim signature on the: United States Constitution?  Declaration of Independence?  Bill of Rights?  Didn't think so.
Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America ?  No, they did not. 

In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug nosed slaves." Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country?  Not present.  
There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage era?  Again, not present. 
In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hijab' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?
Where were Muslims during World War II?  They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. 
The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf
Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews.

Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001?
If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center , the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East . 
No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news network's that day. 
Strangely, the very "moderate" Muslims who's asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo , Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America ...
Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims.
And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood.
Murdered by a Muslim US Officer, a Major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling young soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Also, don't forget the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15.2013 was done by 2 Muslim Brothers. That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America 
EVERY AMERICAN AND CANADIAN SHOULD READ THIS !!
