Against Gun Control

When we think of gun control, we automatically and instantly think of it's plain, literal definition; which is "The efforts to regulate or control sales of guns". But, in fact, it goes much much deeper then just that. Taking or chipping away at the right in which the constitution guarantees us, will lead to more chipping.

The freedom of speech, for example, has been demonstrated in this classroom before you today and will be for years to come. Or will it?

Let's be honest. Who here thinks your teachers can say what they really believe, in front of their supervisors and not get a good talking to?

Listen to this;

On January 14th, 1999 David Howard used the word "niggardly" in a simple economic discussion between two of this co-workers. Howard soon resigned; as he abused a 'racial slurr' during his workday.

He was then forced into looking for a new job, possibly a new career path. Only because he let a bit of personal opinion slip around the chastity muzzle implemented by political law. This is what we call fair. A man who gets his job done, done well; forced into resignation because he had an opinion. See, it's okay to have an opinion as long as it doesn't offend anyone, other people agree, and your opinion coincides with majority morals. FREE speech? I think not.

With that said, Merriam Webster's definition of 'niggardly' is: 1: grudgingly mean about spending or granting, 2: provided in meanly limited supply.

Sound racial to you? Me neither.

A columnist Tony Snow wrote: "David Howard got fired because some people in public employ were morons who (a) didn't know the meaning of niggardly, (b) didn't know how to use a dictionary to discover the meaning, and (c) actually demanded that he apologize for their ignorance."

Shove that under your thinking cap.

What I'm getting at is that when ANY Right we have is tampered with, American people develop a soft spot for change. They start to change their morals and values to meet with what the government and media have portrayed as being the correct ones. We start to lose sight of how and why this Country was founded. We let social norms and trends to become our "correct" life. What becomes of us when this takes place is total control. Or better yet, no control. No control of our own lives and how we live them.

Before we know it we need a license for nearly everything and a permit for everything else. Federal inspectors telling you that you have built you porch three inches too close to the rarely traveled, population: six, back dirt road and it needs to be torn down.
