Alex Jones

Alex Jones provided me with a seminal insight: he offers that our Founnding Fathers believed in arming the citizens because they could be trusted to withstand federal tyranny by taking up arms if need be. The central government is not to be trusted; the citizens are to be trusted. Leftists and collectivists trust the government with all the fire arms and plot to confiscate the arms of the armed citizenry. Disarmed, the people are vulnerable. It is to make them easy to defeat and enslave them. Liberals do not trust an armed populace; they trust the government to have a monopoly on possessing fire arms. In lightning response to the Newtown massacre the Left seeks to yoke the American people, and deprive them of their liberty and constitutional rights, all under the guise of morality and the common good. Rational, compassionate, freedom-loving conservatives must point out to the masses that the Left, haters of liberty and power-grabbers par excellence under the guise of doing good, cleverly taking advantage of every mass shooting and national tragedy to stampede through ineffective legislation. This legislation does no good doing while further robbing the people of one more liberty, in this case, their gun rights. Defenders of constitutional freedom must educate the populace that they are the good guys, albeit diamonds in the rough, out to defend traditional freedoms and to expand liberties and rights of individuals at the expense of shrinking government size, scope and reach. These decentralists are defenders of gun rights. They are the one with noble motives and they are noble people
