The Republicans in Congress look like they are about to sell us out on the question of protecting the Second Amendment. The way they took a dive off the “fiscal cliff” gives us an idea of what they will probably do when confronted with Barack Obama’s fearsome attacks on gun ownership. They won’t listen to us. They will jump as high as the media and Obama tell them to and count themselves lucky if they aren’t singled out as a Hillbilly and an ogre for opposing “common sense” gun control.
According to a newly released report, based on the results of a major sampling of conservatives–the kind of people who vote in Republican primaries–if this scenario plays out, many Republicans might be in for a rude awakening.
The survey on attitudes toward the Second Amendment was conducted by The Blaze, a website run by Glenn Beck. The 106 questions it posed made it a very extensive probe of the issue. It drew almost 5 million responses from almost 3 million people. Not surprisingly, 100% believe that owning a gun is a right.
Of direct importance to Republicans: 85% are over 34 years old, and four of five are homeowners. Furthermore, 78% are parents, three of four are married, and almost 75% are veterans or have a family connection to our military. Over seven in ten are males, and nearly two in three are gun owners themselves.
The level of interest in protecting the right to own guns is so high among these very likely Republican primary voters that when given a chance, they contributed 86 questions that were pointed enough to be added to the survey.
There is little chance that the media will take note of this data because it doesn’t fit into their template. They have used fake “polls” to lie and tell us that people want gun control. They have made their position abundantly clear by even publishing the home addresses of licensed, honest gun owners.
Nevertheless, liberal journalists don’t run in Republican primaries. Those who do, or realize they could, ought to take note of this message from the Republican base.

Republicans, democrats. Same snake, two heads.
How right you are carlwk3c! The ‘so called’ Republican Party has shafted us with their support of the left. I call them all the GUTLESS nothings!
Everyone, remember who has purchased a huge majority of ammunition! Homeland unSecurity in order to use it against the people of this country! The shelves are empty of ammunition.
SAnn, You forgot to mention the New IRS Battalion and any number of other Fed government agencies,
that in the past never carried any firearms whatsoever. Now they are all armed to the teeth and they are looking for anyone who is in opposition to their lord and savior, O’Bu**H*le!!!
We will be watching ALL the votes on 2ND AMENDMENT ISSUES closely….2014 isn’t that far away!!!
If the RINO’s sell WTP out on the 2nd amendment, then WTP will not be able to claim any other rights, WTP will have lost all representation and the central government will become the supreme law of the land…The very same historic occurence that founded the 1776 revolt against King George…
Somehow I don’t think you have a clear understanding of what “WTP” is capable of. obongo may have written his warrant if he sends even one thug to collect some Patriot’s guns. There will be a dead thug and then some dead Patriots and then a lot of dead thugs, and then thugs running for their lives including obongo.
Right you are!!! The actual armed citizenry in these United States of America, believe it or not, comprise a greater army than the entire armed forces, NSA, Langley(CIA) and combined police forces of this country.
That is exactly why this questionable incident in Connecticut was staged……..to give this administration the backing it needed to further disarm us, the American citizen!! Because, they are scared, they are scared we might just finally get sick and tired of being sick and tired……..and launch a major offensive against their asses. Yeah, Right, I’m a loon and if you think that, feel free to “loon” on this. Historically, any two bit dictator that has ever existed on this planet, the first order of the day was to confiscate any and all firearms from the populace by any means possible. Just take a look at some
of the historical heroes that managed to do that very thing: Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Kim Jong ll his son the new premier of North Korea and an additional assortment of their ilk have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, “GUN CONTROL WORKS. Now, leave us not forget to make the newest additions to the list, Barrack O’Bu**H*LE, Joe “Bite Me” Biden, The entire Democrat Party, with few exceptions, a good number of the Re-pube-icans and last but not least, the scumbags that voted to keep the present administration in office………..Thanks ever so much you guys hope you all die of AIDS!~!!
I’m with you reuvenakiva
Looks like 1776 will be early this year !!!
Yeah, I think We the People have more power than we realize. We just have to get the courage to put it into practice. Our Founding Fathers put their lives, their wealth and their reputations on the line for freedom and they won the Revolution against great odds. But, of course, with the help of God. George Washington NEVER forgot God and that’s why he won. We will win the same way. There’s no other way.
Christian, you are so right..we need to get someone to stitch a flag together for us and send it to Obama and tell him that he has one day to get out of office or else..or something of that nature. I really wonder what he would do? Of course , he is so in denial that he probably wouldn’t do anything by not truly knowing that there are a few million of us out here that are just waiting for the first shot to happen…gotta wonder though…
When are the Republicans going to grow some balls? When are they going to start doing their job of protecting the people they were hired to represent? I’ve given up on the Democrats… they are complete morons. What I am seeing of late is that all of Congress are worthless incompetents and deserve to be removed from office immediately. None of them are doing the job they were hired to do and should be fired by their states. If they want to be considered the least bit useful they will all vote fr immediate term limits!
No demp=craps are not morons. Most are comminist. There are 50 states and DC is not a state and is just a city. If all the governers of the 50 state told DC to go suck it we are not sending you anymore money. We could tell the chinese that they now own DC. come and claim it. We for sure don`t want it.
Do you understand exactly what a Communist is, viking? Communists do not participate in elections, or voice their opinions on issues of government. I understand you are attempting an insult, but there are lots of intelligent ways to insult a Democarat.
Viking,
BRAVO!!!! That has got to be the best comment I have ever heard on any blog anywhere!!! You, Sir, have
my greatest admiration!!! What a concept!! As far as Subhub35 is concerned, perhaps you should have been a personal victim of “Planned Parenthood”?????
Wow. You must live in a bubble where nobody ever disagrees with you. Your comeback is that I never should have been born? Maybe you should just kill everyone who refuses to sign your new world order. Good luck with your potty training.
Wow, you all are really itching to shoot someone, aren’t you? Maybe you should take a day off, or go get a massage. The gun issue will be out of the news again in a couple of weeks, and I’m pretty sure we can keep from killing each other until them. Do like the Fonze, and be cool.
subhub35, I don’t believe he is “itching to shoot someone” I believe he is standing up for his/our rights and frankly, I am with him. So, call it what you’d like but facts are facts.
If they are smart they will stand up and take notice, American Patriots are ready to stand and fight to protect the Second Amendment. If Republicans don’t stand and and protect the Constitution then they we’ll get new people who will.
“Our Founding Fathers were proud that Americans were trusted with arms because they knew that only when people are armed could they truly be thought of as free citizens. And that’s where the circle closes. Those who want to DEPRIVE YOU OF YOUR RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS ARE INTENDING TO DEPRIVE YOU OF YOUR FREEDOM, period. Like the criminals their policies encourage, these elitists know that it is always best to disarm victims BEFORE you enslave them.” — Charley Reese
Make people afraid of weapons then any country can come and make you a subject.
