Let me tell you a story.
December. 7, 1941.
Japan bombed pearl Harbor, The Emperor wanted to send in ground troops to invade our country.
The Emperor's main General said sir, " You don't want to do that, there's a gun behind every blade of grass."
The main General knew, that average Americans would join in and defend our country.
We have something called the Second Amendment, The right to keep and bear arms.
Yesterday was May Day, A day of protesting across the country, Many people with their special cause marched around
and held up their special little signs.
One sign in particular was disturbing, It was" Disarm the Police." Are you really that stupid?
Do you really want cops showing up to an armed robbery with Tasers and beanbags? Harsh words ?
Think real hard, if our Police are disarmed, it will only be a matter of time before they do it to the rest of us.
Do you really want the rest of the world to see us as weakened citizenry?
I have small comforts knowing that I have a .22 with a 15 round banana clip sitting right next to my bed, if you get past my dogs, that gives me time to hit the safety.
Criminals do stupid things, criminals on drugs do even stupider things.
We can all agree there are bad people and very good people, and yes that means cops.
They put their life on the line everyday, just like the Fireman who runs into burning buildings.
I like seeing that Police cruiser come down my street, I grew up in Detroit, if you called the cops, they might or might not have shown up.
After the humiliation the Baltimore cops went through, The New York cops and so on...
They might not be as eager to put their life on the line for people who have made it clear they are not wanted.
Next time your husband comes home drunk and uses you as a punching bag.
The next time a child goes missing.
The next time gangs square off and a toddler is shot.
The next armed robbery.
The next traffic pile up on an interstate.
The next natural disaster.
God forbid the next time someone flies planes into our buildings.
Get my point, be very careful what you ask for, you just might get it.
