Gun Control

Gun Control has grown in popularity after the recent events at schools. But it is more than that, more than what is in the constitution or what is written in any law, gun ownership is about self-ownership. If you cant defend yourself against someone who is trying to cause harm to you, you don't care for yourself. If you don't care about yourself, you can't possibly care about anything else be it your loved ones or your property. A government telling you that you can't defend yourself against a criminal, murderer or any kind of armed threat is telling you that you don't even own yourself. Any government with that much power has total control over its people. At that point, the people are nothing more than a resource to be used. Guns don't load themselves and shoot people. Banning all guns won't stop violent crime. Bad people will still have guns. Let us find something that everyone can agree on let's not strip our second amendment right. That's not fair to any law-abiding citizen that owns a firearm. So why can't we meet in the middle for something both sides think will be beneficial?

Racial Quotas Kill Kids

In Ann Coulter's blog about racial quotas, she argues that Obama's administration is the reason kids die in schools from violence. She goes on to explain about the shooting in Florida and how the government ignored every warning they received about the kid who murdered 17 people with a firearm. She explains how Democrats want this racial quota filled in schools. Explaining how more students who aren't white get disciplined differently than white children. This just is not true. I have been to school and the way you are disciplined is not determined by your skin color. I just find that ridiculous. She then explains how liberals only want you to hear the worst of any criminal activity because it is not to mourn for the people lost it is to get some kind of political agenda across. I believe this to be true. If I was to ask someone who believes in strong gun control what an AR-15 was they couldn't tell me. They don't care to learn about the issue in depth, they just push this political agenda on you. The same is for the school issue. They believe that school districts treat you differently due to skin color. It is absurd to think like this. I just believe that Coulter made a good point in her blog, and recommend reading it.
