Who Are They Fooling?

It is no secret that Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and all the other homicide bomber terrorists in Israel have no desire for peace with Israel nor a co-existent Palestinian State. They simply want to kill all the Jews.
It is also no big news that the Palestinian Authority under Arafat "condemn" terrorist acts against Israeli citizens, while at the same time arm, supply, and fund the very organizations that carry out these acts.
In our misguided desire for the Rodney King "can't we all just get along" world view, we continue to dialogue with the Palestinian Authority, evoking night-after-night of newscast journalism that also acts as a propaganda platform for the PA.
Are you tired of it? I am. Can you see it for what it is? I do.
But back here at home, things are not so different; yet nobody seems to see what is going on with respect to election-year gimmicks. The liberal Sacramento legislature is try to save both their faces.
I am tired of politicians in California, and elsewhere across the country, running on "moderate-2nd Amendment" platforms when the reality is that they seek the elimination of gun ownership and the rights to use them.
CA Senator Perata has his own Concealed Carry Permit, but denies the right to average folks. Meanwhile, he and his liberal friends crank out toilet-paper rolls of legislation.
Hey, actions-versus-words spin works for the Palestinians, why not Sacramento?
So here are examples of what they say, and what they do:
Say to the public that you (the candidate) are for a "provisional" individual right to bear arms and condemn un-reasonable gun control measures against "sportsmen" while you churn out SCA 12, SB 682 and AB496 to kill gun manufacturers.
Say publicly that you support free people to meet and conduct lawful activities, then skew the definition of lawful activity by making Gun Shows illegal.
And when you meet opposition to the outright ban on Gun Shows, you create and sponsor SB 890, which is designed to regulate, register, license, and tax Gun Shows out of existence.
Say that you want to support more security in the state against potential terrorist attacks while threatening criminal action against anyone caught defending themselves.
Say that you support local sportsmen and gun owners while supporting AB22 that would restrict licensed gun dealers from operating businesses out of their homes. (Since when were gun dealers the problem?)
Say you want to get guns off the street and out of criminal hands while submitting AB566 to put $1 million dollars into the hands of crooks and criminals who are looking to launder illegal guns, or guns used in crimes, through so-called "buy back" programs.
Say that you want more safely built firearms and then propose their elimination by mandating the existence of imaginary, science-fiction, bio-metric, ID-verifying guns (yes, in the real world on planet Earth) by 2004-or else. The "or else" being the banning and elimination of all handguns that don't meet the new "standard" in safety that technologically doesn't exist. (AB1219)
You think I am making this up?
Say that you are for sport shooting and self defense, while proposing to ban all .50 caliber ammo and make ownership of a .50 cal gun illegal. [And as we all know-those $7000 rifles are on street corners and school yards everywhere in the state!! A serious threat to public safety and the preferred weapon of 7-11 and Circle-K robbers]
Say that a gun owner is innocent until proven guilty, support the rule of law, support using a weapon in self defense, and believe in private property rights, while trying to pass AB2695; which gives law enforcement more time and power to STOP you from getting your gun BACK after you have been deemed INNOCENT of any wrong doing.
Say that you want safe guns that pass the state-required gun safety tests so that the gun-owning consumer can be assured that a gun is truly "safe"; while trying to pass AB2902. AB2902 would ensure that the DOJ would be empowered to re-test 10 percent of the handguns on the state-certified "safe handgun" list and permit the state Attorney General with the power to "recall" handguns that fail.
Boy this AB2902 is a piece of brilliance! What a scam!
Okay, pick the first 10 percent and re-test them and re-test them until they all fail. (Sort of like a Florida Presidential election). Great, we just banned 10 %. Now let's do it again and re-test another 10% until they all fail too. Keep doing it until there are only one or two safe guns. Then lobby (extort) the gun manufacturers for campaign bribes, I mean contributions, so that whichever manufacturer pays the most, gets the `Seal of Approval" and can sell in the state. Does that include state government contract sales? You bet! [I love conflict of interest in government when nobody gives a hoot about the law and it is all about saving the children.]
Oh and hey ! Don't forget about the tax on every single cartridge of ammo. SCA 12.
SB510 Proposed new safety requirements-you gotta have a magazine that tells you it's loaded. Probably a precursor to a new requirement for a computer-powered, "talking" gun. Danger, Will Robinson, your gun is loaded!
SB765. You gotta save the children by having doctors play Gestapo and ask the little kiddies if mommy or daddy have a gun in the house.
Get the picture?
It is the slow, legal, choke-hold around your neck. And as you are slipping into unconsciousness, they are telling you what a wonderful person you are for supporting safe neighborhoods, fighting crime, loving your fellow man, and of course, saving the children.
