Enforcing Victimhood -
The Last Phase of Gun Control
By Ted Lang © 2004

It became evident long ago where gun control was going to take our nation. Informed Americans can now begin to see the mounting body count of innocent, law-abiding citizens being murdered by city, state and federal government SWAT teams. And even as the carnage accelerates unabated, many media-brainwashed Americans continue to mindlessly chant: It can’t happen here! But it is happening here, and it is happening now!

In a book I have quoted from heavily, namely Bernard Goldberg’s Arrogance [© 2003, Warner, New York] the bias of the mainstream media against the Second Amendment has been documented.

Once upon a time, there were three chickens who shared a coop, and quarreled amongst themselves constantly over the choicest morsels, their favorite perches, who laid the biggest eggs, or which one the farmer liked best. One day, a fox sauntered by and observed them arguing, so he hid and watched them from the bushes.

That evening, the fox collected feathers and sewed them into a suit, and he fashioned himself a beak out of wood. He made a large nest out of twigs and grass at the edge of the clearing where the chickens ran during the day. At dawn, he settled himself into the nest and waited. Soon, the farmer came to scatter corn for the chickens, and then he left to attend to other chores. The chickens came out to eat - they quarreled over this tidbit or that one, and each one claimed to have seen the sunrise first; they could not agree on anything. (Read the rest here)
