The entire nation is engrossed by the media coverage of the armed thugs that killed a Florida couple known for adopting developmentally challenged children. It seems that the criminals attacked and killed a truly generous and caring couple who had dedicated their life to helping the less fortunate.

What most people missed in the coverage, however, is that the criminals apparently trained for weeks prior to the home invasion, and it took place with near military-like precision.

All of the anti-gun loons out there who claim calling the police is the best option can’t refute that the thugs who committed this horrible crime were in and out before anyone could respond.

From a report at Foxnews.com:

Noted gun grabber and first rate hypocrite Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago was vacationing at his family’s cottage in Michigan when one of his armed body guards caught an escaped murderer who was walking nearby. Daily, who accepts armed guards for himself while denying Chicagoans the right to carry a gun for self-defense was relatively quiet about the incident.

Maybe, for once, he realized the hypocrisy in his policy to deny millions of Chicagoans the right to use a gun for self-defense while he cavorts about with heavily armed guards. Had Daley been the average Illinoisan vacationing in Michigan, instead of the escaped murderer being confronted with a gun, the thug would have been free to attack the family without fear.

Of course, we already know Daley’s stance on the gun issue that follows the “it’s ok for me but not for thee” school of thought that is also used by President Barack Obama, noted gun grabbing U.S Senators Charles Schumer, Diane Feinstein and Barbara Boxer who all accept armed body guards while actively trying to deny honest citizens the right to bear arms.

How those people sleep at night is beyond comprehension and their actions to accept armed body guards is the height of leftist hypocrisy. Of course, there are those on the left who take an enlightened view on the gun issue, like Oho Governor Ted Strickland and understand people have the right to carry a gun for self-defense. Still, it is of little help to the millions of Americans who are attached every year after being denied the right to carry a gun by the likes of Mayor Daley and others of his misguided ilk.

What people don’t realize is that choosing to accept armed body guards while denying honest people the right to carry a gun shows the true character of a person or politician. They are saying, in effect, that they are above the law and are more important than everyone else.
There are few sentiments that are as anti-American as believing the people who make up our government are more important than a person casting a vote.

We know that it is the job of our elected officials to see that the will of the people is conveyed through their votes and actions in their respective offices. Instead, politicians of Daley’s misconceived mindset think they need to dictate policy to their constituents without regard for what the people really want. Full Story »
