BloggeRhythms 2/24/2013

An associate of mine long ago when confronting problems used to say, “nothing difficult is ever easy.” And I now know that trying to find something of interest in the news lately certainly fits that description.
 
I did, however, catch a guy on Fox News yesterday morning who impressed me enough to look up his exact words just now on the subject of gun control, whereas I think his thoughts hit right on the mark correctly, precisely and succinctly.
 
Ex Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino said : “There is no such thing as gun control, there is only people control.
 
In over 15 years in law enforcement, I never arrested or investigated anyone for a gun crime who owned his gun legally.
 
We live in a society of wolves.  You do not fight back by creating more sheep.”
 
So, here’s someone who knows far more about the subject than most people do who after all his years of hands-on experience reaches the same conclusion that anyone would who had an iota of common sense.
 
Guns aren’t the problem and never were. It’s the people that own them that do the harm. And, as I’ve written before, if you take the guns away, those who wish to do destroy will simply find some other weapon instead.
 
But, worst of all, since the bad guys won’t be affected at all, the only ones being made more vulnerable are those who can no longer protect themselves at all.
 
Nonetheless, though, if gun control is to really happen, I think there should be a simultaneous action.  And at the exact same moment that the public gives up it’s right to arm themselves, those in office of any kind, from top to bottom, surrender their weaponry as well, give up their body guards and any other kind of protection possessed.
 
Because office-holders are not only no better than anyone else in our nation, they’re far, far worse and worth far, far less.
 
That’s it for today folks.
 
Adios
