As a Christian & proud American I'm continually saddened by the failure of so-called Christians to embrace what the Gospel teaches & demands. CINOs (Christian in Name Only) put their faith in guns rather than God. Oh, Tea Party zealots are quick to scream about religion in schools, ending abortion (FYI: the Bible sets the punishment for killing an unborn child as a fine to be paid to the father for loss of property) & rapidly executing 'criminals' ignoring what Christ told us about 'Let he who has never sinned cast the first stone."
Christ was the ultimate Liberal. He said,"Love your enemies. Bless those who curse you."; "Put up your sword! Those who live by the sword DIE by the sword." He said, "Whatever you ask of the Father in My Name will be granted" We don't ask.
Jesus reminded us, "If you have faith the size of a grain of mustard you will be able to move mountains." Zealots crucified Him.
Instead of CINOs reaching out to the God they drag out for every political cause, they trust in guns. Do they pray to God to help w/the fact 1:5 US women are raped in their lifetime? To stop cheap conversion kits to turn rifles into weapons of mass destruction? To help us with the fact the US is the murder capital of the world? No. After every outrage they run to gun shows & WalMart to stock up on MORE ammunition & guns in direct violation of Jesus' command.
When it comes to helping the poor, the sick, the widowed & the orphan CINOs are more interested in how such aid will affect their IRAs, their bank accounts, or taxes. They ignore the stern warning of the Rich Man & Lazarus: RM was tickled w/his 3rd qtr profits, planning on expanding his warehouses, adding employees & scarfing down a great meal...all after stepping over poor, starving & in need of medical care brother Lazarus who lay in his path.(RM probably called the cops to have Lazarus removed from view). Funny thing, though. RM didn't live thru the night. An angel called him a fool & said 'times up!' That night both RM & Laz died: RM went to hell & Laz was tended by no less than Father Abraham. Abraham scorned RM when he asked for but a drop of water to cool his burning lips. "You had your chance to help your poor brothers when you were alive. You enjoyed your reward on earth. Lazarus suffered in his earthly life: now he enjoys his eternal reward."
Even our poor live better than 80% of the world! We have food, clothing, homes or shelters for most, yet we are the people who want MORE. MORE cheap junk. MORE technology. MORE money. But don't ask us to pay for medical care for kids, or for one red cent to care for those babies zealots demand be brought to term. Once born, they're not OUR problem, are they? It's why 9 Red states qualify as 3rd world nations in infant mortality rates or maternal deaths.
1:3 Americans no longer belong to an organized religion, 1:5 claim no god at all. This's NOT the fault of ending school prayer: it's the fault of parents who don't pray with or teach basic prayer to their kids (busy working?).Prayer in schools? Who's? How'll that erase pictures of TeaParty zealots waving Bibles in 1 hand, carrying racist hate signs in the other & openly packing loaded guns?
'New' religions promise "Follow us & God will make you RICH!" Nice houses, big cars, fancy clothes, etc. All despite the fact Jesus said it was easier for a camel to pass thru the Needle's eye than a rich man to enter heaven. He told the rich boy, "This alone do you lack: sell all you have, give your riches to the poor & then come back & follow Me)."
Jesus said,"Where your heart lies, there your treasure is found." If Americans were to fight for God the way they fight for cheap Chinese junk on Black Friday (how aptly named!) we might see a return to peace & security instead of to the horrible days of the Wild West.
Maybe Texans & idiots like the thought of armed camps instead of neighborhoods, but it took over 100 yrs to achieve peace in the West to where decent citizens could walk safely without stray bullets & outlaws robbing, raping & killing with abandon. Now Satan's 'Christians' want to bring all that back.
The NRA boasts 4 million 'members'(including babies). Hmmmn. That's less than 1% of Americans!!! The rest of us want safety, peace & security. We want assault rifles banned {any hunter knows you can't use assault rifles to hunt- the meat'd be useless).
We want those special bullets meant to explode inside bodies (like those at Sandy Nook that blew those poor babes into unrecognizable bags of tissue)banned. If the mother of the shooter, Adam, had a brain she'dve gotten those guns out of the home til he was safely in the asylum. Nope, she took him shooting! Leaving guns around a mentally ill man was proof she was nuttier 'n him.
Why fight locks on every gun to prevent kids from using them in anger/frustration? Other nations allow guns, but responsibly. Why fight responsible gun ownership? P.R.O.F.I.T. F.E.A.R.& lack of faith in God.
It is a breath of fresh air for me to read the kind of information I post every chance I get. I am actually surprised in that your commentary read like one of my own.
I really appreciate reading it but would like to add one comment that I know you will agree, that BOJAX39 symbolizes.. Remember in the days of Moses, when the Pharoah was asked repeatedly to free the Israelites, God said there would be those whose hearts would be hardened and they would not listen to the truth. BOJAX39 is the perfect example of such. BOJAX39's response is also typical of those in the days of Noah and Sodom.
The Scriptures indicate that there will always be those who will not "hear."
Many persons speak up boldly on behalf of the 2 - 4% gun-owners. No need for anyone to be offended by someone speaking up boldly on behalf of Christian Faith and Truth in the Word? Freedom does apply to all and is not just meant to be stamped on currency to be looked at. Perhaps people could slow down and read their money before
they spend it. It might serve as a good general reminder
who it is we really trust in.
No reason to be offended. When good people fail to do
or say anything is exactly the great deception. It is
how and why hate and evil are allowed to exist.
Bring it into the light.
No problems with reading this persons comments and genuine
remarks founded on Christian Faith and Teaching. No harm
to me whatsoever. You don't have to believe to be a good person but we all in a blink of an eye will find this truth
soon. Why not retain what is good? This moment is a present. It is a gift.
Why not stand up and speak boldly for good?
Don't see a problem with it at all. Thanks and good
to know you are out there, OP. A Blessed Day to All.
Justice system fails again, this guy should've never been released from prison, and why didn't his parole officer know he had firearms? So sad for the firefighters and their families.
"...why didn't his parole officer know he had guns." Are you kidding me? He got an education in prison so he knew where to get them and I doubt he brought out his gun collection to show to his parole officer.
Agree totally nfission235. That parole officer should be fired. They'll revoke parole for a DWI or minor marijuana offence if they find a beer in your house, but didn't realize this guy was a wacko? Who murders his own grandmother with a freaking hammer? Should have got life or the electric chair. RIP those two heros & best wishes for a speedy recovery for the other 2.
Another police officer, the one who exchanged gunfire with Spengler, "in all likelihood saved many lives," Pickering said. Why don't they identify this guy & give him a medal of honor?
Why was this guy ever even released from prison? He should have either been left to rot, or put to death. There is no reason why more innocent people should have been murdered. This is what is wrong with this country. If you are sick enough to kill your 92 year old grandmother, you surrender every human right as far as I am concerned.
OK, the "defend against overzealous government" BS again.
Listen 2nd amendment suckers, our government possess every type of weapon known (and even some you don't know about yet, like microwave cannons, and high powered lasers)including WMDs like chemical, biological, and even nuclear weapons.
The conventional inventory includes unmanned bomber drones, attack helicopters, and supersonic stealth fighter planes, chain guns, cluster bombs, white phosphorus, Sidewinders,shoulder-fired Stingers, and napalm, among other nasty things.
You think your AR-15, or AK-47 is going to help you against that?
Or do you posit that you should have the right to own such weapons also?
Forget it, if the government becomes over-zealous, there isn't jack you can do about it, other than vote them out.
Raise a weapon against the government, you are committing treason, and will be turned into a grease-stained crater in very short order. "the Government" won't even slow down chewing their tenderloin steak while it happens.
So who are you bagger maroons going to be shooting at, should the government become, in your opinion, overzealous? Cops from your own neighborhood? Your representative, or senator? Your neighbors? Your kids?
The President? You suckers will never get the shot.
You are really maroons if you thing that shooting at "the government" is going to accomplish anything, except for your own vaporization.
When the framers wrote that clause, it was at a time when cannons and single shot-rifles were the standard for everyone, both military and civilian.
You delude yourself if you think you have the ability to take out those who truly hold power over your lives, even the President cannot touch those who hold power over him.
If the baggers haven't risen up against their worst nightmare, a "black" president, they aren't going to rise up against any form of government, even though they would like to do so.
So just keep on giving your money to the gun manufacturers, they love how much you spend on something you will statistically never use. You baggers are taking it rearward from the gun makers, and they aren't even giving you some gun lube first.
OK, I'm ready to hear your plan for removing every gun from the face of the earth. If you can insure that you can do that I'm listening. If you can't I'm keeping my guns. Put up or shut up. Pandora's box is wide open and I'm sure you have a fool proof way to eliminate guns from the planet. Oh, and while you're at it you might want to come up with a plan for this effed up society of morons we've created here in our once great country. We'll need that too as there might be something to what some people are saying is the real problem....the nuts behind the 'evil' guns. Of course, they can be rehabilitated, can't they?
He killed his grandmother. What was he doing out of prison? What were they thinking when they let him out? Who had the gun someplace where he could have access? Stealing it, buying it, barrowing it, finding it, they're all the same. Some person had it some place where he could get to it. In any case, the gun is an object, not a person. The gun could not operate on its own. The gun did not do the killing. People let a killer out of jail. people made the gun available. People provided the ammunition. A person pulled the trigger. Looking for why this sort of thing occurs? Try looking for the source of the problem in the direction our society has chosen take. Unstability at home, access to violent games and movies, bullying at school, a broken justice system with over crowded jails and early release programs for violent offenders and even second time violent offenders. Our society has in many ways abandoned tradtional values that at one time served to hold us together. We have now embraced entitlement and told God to leave us alone and we have abandoned truth. In what has happened in the last few days in our nation, guns did not kill people, people killed people. Societal debauchery. Demanding that someone else solve our problems rather than accepting responsiblity as individuals and working at fixing the problem at its root, in our homes.

we don't care what happens as long as we don't infringe upon the rights of the convicted criminals.
Its rediculous to think that we actually should enforce the laws as passed.
im under no illusions as to the good nature of all mankind.
