Today is the birthday of John Garand, the inventor of the greatest battlefield weapon ever (said General Patton).
Garand - Wiki
Jean Cantius Garand (/ˈɡærənd/; January 1, 1888 – February 16, 1974), also known as John C. Garand, was a Canadian-born designer of firearms who created the M1 Garand, a semi-automatic rifle that was widely used by the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps during both World War II and the Korean War.
Several events led to this post.
- Organized, subsidized attacks on Jews and Christians have risen to fill the airwaves.
- One church protected itself by having a self-defense set up, which quickly ended one shooter's plan. Seven church members pulled weapons to stop the murderer.
- Reactions continue to be - What new laws can we pass?
- The text for New Year's included Galatians 3:28.
The Galatians verse has been used and abused in various ways. Universities are now paying brigades of diversity executives to enforce selective tolerance. And you thought a degree in gender studies was a waste of money?
Freedom of religion (not freedom from religion) is the law of the land, but that was set aside - only recently - during the malignant reign of the previous president.
The Second Amendment protects the First Amendment, which is why I am a member of the National Rifle Association. Whenever tyrants take over, they confiscate weapons. They penalize people for merely owning the weapons.
The First Amendment needs to be enforced as much as Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution. Strangely, no one seems to know that declaration. I used it on a reporter when he asked me about my vote in Arizona. He said, "Foreign invasion?" I responded, "What do you call 5,000 people a day?" He had to agree, meekly.
One failure leads to the next. People come to the USA to be Americans. My wife's family came legally, as everyone should. When we became Landed Immigrants in Canada, we followed all their rules, and we benefited from that status (albeit, no land). We had all the rights except the right to vote.
When actual Constitutional rights (not invented ones) are violated, we all suffer from that repudiation.
