A PLEDGE

History teaches us gun control is always the first step to absolutism. I am a witness to that.
Absolutism unavoidably leads in order to:

1. government perpetrated mass murders,

December 21, 1989.
I was 26 years old and barely married for two months when what you see in the pictures above happened. I was in Romania, carrying an AKM-47 as a Navy reservist. I didn't really cared if I was to live or to die - living my entire as a slave under communism really made me indifferent to the perspective of dying during those blood soaked days of Christmas. In fact, I was ready to put a bullet in my head if the revolution wouldn't have succeed. We all knew they would come after us and shoot us anyway if we failed.

My father once told me: son, the single biggest mistake me and your grandad did was to surrender our guns in 1949 when the communists made gun ownership illegal. You paid for our mistake and I am sorry for that.

Now I have a 22 year old son and I am making ANYONE who wants to come to my home take my guns away A PLEDGE:

YOU WILL NOT TAKE MY GUNS. BE READY TO DIE IF YOU TRY AS I AM ALREADY PREPARED TO GIVE MY LIFE TO STOP YOU.
I WILL NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE MY FATHER AND GRANDFATHER DID.
I WILL NOT LET MY SON TO LIVE IN SLAVERY LIKE I DID. I WILL NOT LET HIM RISK HIS LIFE FIGHTING ANOTHER REVOLUTION TO OVERTHROW ANOTHER DICTATOR BECAUSE I WAS A COWARD AND GAVE UP INTO YOUR DEMANDS.

I owe that to my son. And I owe it to all the people who died for liberty in December 1989.

So help me God.

A few days after the tragic Sandy Hook school murders, a young Marine in fatigues stationed himself at the front entrance of the Nashville elementary school his two children attend. Another parent heard him admit to a reporter that he was unarmed. The other parent commented that, even though the young Marine standing guard was not armed, it made him “feel better” to know he was there.
It’s often been observed that “perception is more important than reality”. The observation is often correct. It is never MORE CORRECT than for those we’ve come to call “liberals”. I prefer “statist” but “liberal” has morphed from its classic meaning to the other end of the spectrum so I’ll stay with it.
Since these folks operate almost entirely on EMOTION and FEELING, REALITY seldom allows FACTS to intrude upon the delusional worldview they have constructed and the comfort that provides them. It is that illogical, irrational and delusional mindset that prompts many of them to continue to quest after a Utopian society. The thought that such a society can and will never be achieved in a fallen world populated with failed sinners never penetrates whatever remains of their cognitive consciousness. It’s a DANGEROUS WORLD and, as the liberals continue to “define deviancy down”, it becomes more dangerous daily.
There is another, far more sinister, level of the “liberal” call for gun control.
It was Mencken who offered that “The urge to save humanity is most often a false front for the URGE TO RULE.” He clearly had been a student of the liberal politicians of his day. Were he alive today and able to observe the likes of Chuck Schumer, Diane Feinstein, Obama and the rest, he’d almost certainly have used far stronger language to frame his sage observation.
To conclude, dozens of studies reveal the FACTS concerning gun control. Those FACTS are that where firearms are widely and READILY available to law-abiding citizens, CRIME GOES DOWN! The liberals who willfully ignore the FACTUAL EVIDENCE and continue to call for gun control (i.e. the DISARMING of DECENT CITIZENS, thereby denying them the ability to exercise their God-given right to self-defense) are those about whom Mencken wrote: Their goal is NOT about preserving life. It is about the hell-bent pursuit of the impossible to achieve Utopian world where all are equal but some (that’d be THEM) are MORE equal than others (that’d be US).
There are many PRO-RTKABA videos on You Tube that your often busy lives don’t allow you to find on your own. Search there for “Gun Control”, watch them – and, more importantly – SHARE THEM with the folks in your orbit.
We’re in a fight. And losing will ultimately cost us much more than our right to our guns.

I posted this on American Thinker a few months ago in reply to an article from Virginia Prodan. Socialism: Against Gold, Guns, and God.

I was in Bucharest 5 years ago. We stopped in Pasaj Macca/Pasaj Villacrosse for lunch. Being that I do not speak Romanian my host and I conversed in English. This brought the attention of the people around us. I spent about 3 hours conversing with many people. Most were students but one gentleman was much older and lived through the oppression of Ceausescu. He told me something that I did not grasp right away. It took me a few months before I truly understood what he said and what he meant.

"You are going where we have been".

It is sad that a man half way around the world can see things that people here can not.

I'll be standing the same watch in Pennsylvania. I have no illusions about surviving the encounter should it come. But they'll know I was there and God willing I'll take some of them to hell with me.

@Kadar
"Voi mergeti acolo unde noi am fost deja"
This is what you heard in Romanian.
And he was right.
When Obama won the second time my wife told me: "We came to America to run away from communism. It is now clear we didn't ran far enough"

Merry Christmas everyone!

My SIL is Romanian.
She seems somewhat lefty, though, so "Voi mergeti acolo unde noi am fost deja" may not seem as ominous as it does to we liberty-lovers.

i'm Australian , and the lies i see in the USA are the same ones told here by the same people the packer and murdock owned media , how did the 3rd and 6th rated news papers in Australia end up taking over the worlds media ? they did what the Un told em and published the lies your seeing now , guns are bad etc etc etc but they never tell you of how many aussies where gunned down , locked up and made criminal for just signing petitions , a good mate of mine Rodney Ansell was gunned down , shot twice in the back by cops ,

and now only criminals and those who guard the politicians and celebrities have guns and the crime rate , daily shootings in sydney Australia , news.com.au look for yourselves .. thats gun control , gun control is about population control and dictatorship , as any romanian can tell you

glad you made it out and yes , you may not have run far enough , but maybe its time we all stopm running and face down these socialist marxist communist scumbags once and for all
