When you hear the word "Freedom" what comes to mind.
Where would America be without "Freedom" and the cost of that "Freedom" has came with a price.
What is one of the many things that Gives Us "Freedom and Protecting That Freedom" that has lasted hundreds of years and Who Do We have to Thank...
...The Chinese and their inventions which were later transmitted to the Middle East, Africa, and Europe.
One of the Chinese's Invention, is a Tradition in America every 4th of July. We have many Patriotic Songs expressing Our Freedom and our Sacrifices "Let Freedom Ring"
As Americans, we have a lot of Pride in the American Way...America built by Immigrants and Native Americans...and we continue to Unite making this "The United States of America"
We Americans wish to maintain Our Pride & Freedom, as does "The Proud The Few The Marines" since 10 Nov 1775, the Continental Marines.
It is up to Every American, to raise and protect Our Children, and Our Citizens as in the Oath I took "I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
That Oath comes from Oath of Enlistment - The first oath under the Constitution was approved by Act of Congress 29 September 1789 (Sec. 3, Ch. 25, 1st Congress)
Another Oath my forebears took was from the Naturalization Oath of Allegiance from the original United States Naturalization Law of March 26, 1790
One of the U.S. Constitutional Amendments, as I took an Oath "I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States" is the 1st Amendment, and how we interpret Our Constitution Amendments may differ from One American to an Other.
An other Amendment I take seriously is the 2nd Amendment "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
or as interpreted by some as "the right of gun ownership to individuals for purposes that include self-defense. At first it was thought to apply only to the Federal government, but through the mechanism of the Fourteenth Amendment, it has been applied to the states as well."
This Does Not Mean kill Innocent people, Defenseless people, infringing & violating their Human Rights, no matter their Age, Gender, Creed/Religion, Race (a genealogical line; a lineage) or Color of skin, of the same genetic characteristics.
Then there are those who have not taken the Naturalization Oath of
Allegiance, those here illegally, and of our borders...not only do
people cross, come weapons and drugs, human trafficking, possibly
Terrorist...The No Fly List may have their name and picture, but then
they do not all Fly to get to America...one or more could be living
among us at this moment.
Laws only have so much power, which may not stop an individual or a group of people from committing such heinous crimes, just as getting a Restraining Order does not work for all only those who believe and obey a Restraining Order may it work.
Guns...my estimate, is there are more Illegal Weapons in the hands of than those legally licensed and in the possession those lawfully allowed to have a weapon.
Just as those with Concealed Weapon Permits...as opposed to those with no Concealed to Carry permit.
Change all the Laws you wish, regarding Guns...those Criminals with the intent to do harm, will have or find a weapon legally or illegally...especially Breaking and Entering stealing weapons from others allowed to have weapons.
Computers are used to keep track of registered licensed Gun Owners, buyers, dealers...which Computers are prone to be Hacked and that information Stolen...just as Hackers gain access to State & Federal Computers possibly of all Branches/Departments, Law Enforcement, Finance/Credit Card & Banks, Medical records etc.
Then recently in the news those using Knives, explosives, homemade bombs, chose your poison....people kill people, Laws have not stopped the Killing.
Education, Environmental Awareness, Awareness, Cyber & Personal Security is Protection...but it does not stop there.
Always Be A Part of the Solution, not the Problem...be Vigilant, Active in your Children's Lives, Do You Lead Through Hindsight, Insight or Foresight.
You have the Right to Protect Yourselves & Home, do Your Part to Protect & Save the Lives of Others
I continue to be a Freedom Fighter, I Literally cannot Run, So I will Stand and Fight to Protect Our Freedom for the Right To or Of Our Constitutional Amendments
