NRA calls the shots...
Americans should applaud the NRA for:
1) Having the backbone to stand up to the Dear Leader (unlike many Republican and Conservative politicians)
2) Pointing out the glaring hypocrisy of the left. The "do as we say not as we do" crowd."
3) Pointing out that children DO deserve to be safe in schools.
4) All of the 23 (yes, you read that correctly) Executive Orders that Obama issued today in regards to gun control (oops, forgot the new moniker is now "gun violence") not one of them would have done ANYTHING to prevent Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, or other mass shootings. Plain and simple. All Obama is doing is targeting law-abiding citizens and their right to bear arms. (And Rush Limbaugh made an excellent point on his conservative talk radio show earlier - Obama wants more and more in-depth background checks and information on Americans - mainly on people who wish to buy and/or sell guns and/or visit a health care provider as to their mental state). When will we Americans get a background check on President Obama? Obama has YET to be properly vetted. What's up with that?)
5) The elitism of Obama and Co. is on full display (and the NRA commercial sure is "on target."). For some reason, Obama and his fellow socialists seem to believe they know best and the government can solve all of societies problems. Here's a news flash: Obama and Co. have no clue what is best for the American individual, and the government cannot solve every problem that pops up. (In fact, I'd venture to argue that the Obama government of today is the leader in creating problems (Obamacare anyone?).
6) Not caring if Obama and other lefties criticize and attack them for this commercial. (Already the liberal media is in a tizzy over this ad...)
Thank you, NRA - for having the guts to do what too many of our elected officials of today are afraid of. We need more people to stand up and speak out for America - and not let Obama destroy our country before our very eyes.

Carl HIcks: I believe that a free people with the ability to own guns is a major deterrent
from a despotic government. That is why Obama and the Dems are slowly chipping away
at the 2nd amendment. So a free people cannot stand in the way.
Amy Hemmer reports she thinks her guns scare the worlds greatest military ever... Simply
the most ludicrous statement by gun owners ever... I would sooner believe you nut jobs
think there are zombies coming but they would all be you brainless people if there were
such a thing.... Wow is this ever a tell on credibility

Guns in the home can enable a citizen to protect families from the average degenerate in a home invasion.
However, when the government is ready to “come for you” and “take your guns” all the guns and armor piercing rounds in the world are not going to save you. Maybe when the constitution was written it could but not anymore. The level of weaponry available to the government far outweighs anything an average citizen could throw back.
For a few clear examples of the futility of this please Google; Branch Davidian Waco, or Ruby Ridge, or check out the multitude of stories of armed homeowners being killed by police while trying to defend their homes against what they thought were intruders.
Resistance is futile… well at least armed resistance is futile when it is the government “coming” for you.
BTW Amy…a free people are…and a free person is…just ‘sayin’.

"When your car (the economy) has gone off a cliff - he SHOULD be hitting the brake, not stomping on the gas."
Some how translates into:
WOW! You have really outdone yourself jman.
First of all the "car off the cliff" analogy was to demonstrate the futility of expecting gun control legislation to eliminate evil people. i.e. Stepping on the brakes is as effective at stopping the car as gun control is at preventing hostility.
Secondly - Objects don't fall at 32ft/sec/sec the accelerate at 32ft/s*s.
People that don't know the difference between Velocity and Acceleration fail physics. People that can't wrap their brains around figurative analogies lose intellectual arguments. "
What a maroon...... "
"Good one jman - You critique others by demonstrating a complete ignorance of science, then restate your inability to comprehend analogies.
By topping it off with a personal insult at the end and you have summed up your approach to all intellectual debates I have seen you participate in to date.
Your contribution to this discussion would be a little more interesting if you dropped the personal insults, name calling, stayed on point and actually articulated a point. But then again, it's Hemmer's blog. "
Well Mucho, you were the one to suggest he hit the brakes.
""When your car (the economy) has gone off a cliff - he SHOULD be hitting the brake, not stomping on the gas.""
So you see where in, you are full of it, up to your eyeballs.

"Emergency personnel had to be called to the scene of the Dixie Gun and Knife Show in Raleigh, North Carolina after a gun accidentally discharged and shot two people at the show’s safety check-in booth just after 1 pm. Both victims were transported to an area hospital, and the Raleigh Fire Department announced that the show would be closed for the rest of the day."

".....a gun accidentally discharged and shot two people...."
How could that happen? Guns don't shoot people, people shoot people.

You are calling on the military to over throw a democratically elected President?
patriot4progress - Jan 19, 2013 8:26 PM
law enforcement and the military Amy... So sorry to inform you that the republicans record
on veterans benefits and police and firefighter unions does not go over big... Law
enforcement do not want AR 15's and high round clips on the street Amy you truly are
fooling yourself to think you have any support with your planned over throw of an elected
president and a party that received more votes than yours... Go sell crazy somewhere

wfb are for spending billions in tax payer dollars for voter ID but not gun buyer ID. There
have been only 10 cases of voter fraud brought to trial since 2000 but more than 10
preventable shootings a day... Brainless miss guided kooks

And please note: I have said nothing about overthrowing the goverment. What I have said is that people will NOT sit quietly by and let Obama destroy America. He's doing a pretty good job decimating the country so far, but I do believe if he goes too far to the extreme, people will NOT stand for it. Keeping guns in the hands of free people with a "right to bear arms" is a deterrent for Obama & Co. The 2nd Amendment is in place to protect the people from a tyrannical government - the kind of government Barry & Co. dream about.
ahemmer - Jan 20, 2013 10:05 AM
No one on my blog site has ever stated we want Voter ID but no "gun buying ID." No one. So don't make false statements like that. You are simply lying.
ahemmer - Jan 20, 2013 10:15 AM
By the way, we bloggers cannot delete "parts of comments." It's all or nothing. So you are lying when you stated that I "deleted part of your comment" but let the rest stand. I cannot do any such thing.
Now play nice or don't play at all...

OK. What DID you say?
" What I have said is that people will NOT sit quietly by and let Obama destroy America. He's doing a pretty good job decimating the country so far, but I do believe if he goes too far to the extreme, people will NOT stand for it.
OK. How do you think they should react. then?
"Keeping guns in the hands of free people with a "right to bear arms" is a deterrent for Obama & Co. The 2nd Amendment is in place to protect the people from a tyrannical government - the kind of government Barry & Co. dream about. "
OK. What do you think people should DO with those guns then to protect the people from a tyrannical government?
