The other day in our local newspaper, there were three political columns on the editorial page, all three of them one-sidedly calling for gun control and moaning about America’s “Gun Culture.”
As a law-abiding gun owner, I must say that I am a part of America’s gun culture. I am proud of it. In addition, I often thank God for it.
During World War II, the most brutal fighting experienced by our military were the battles waged against the Japanese Imperial Army. Moreover, the inhumane conditions faced by our captured American POWs and the atrocities visited upon them by their Japanese captors was like nothing faced by most of those in German prison camps.
On Iwo Jima, over 7,000 American soldiers were killed, some of them forced to engage in hand-to-hand combat. About that same number of Americans lost their life at Guadalcanal.
Therefore, one can only wonder how many Americans — civilians and military alike — would have died had the Japanese chosen to invade the mainland of the United States.
Japanese General Yamamoto said, “You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”
Their decision not to invade the United States was a direct result of what they believed to be America’s “gun culture.”
Therefore, you should thank God for it too.
During that same time, the Japanese invaded China, a nation without a gun culture.
In Nanking, the Japanese killed over 250,000 civilians.
Soldiers deliberately raped women in front of their husbands. They forced fathers to rape their own daughters. They forced sons to rape their mothers. Moreover, they killed any family member who tried to intervene.
The Japanese soldiers impaled infants on their bayonets, tossing them back and forth, spearing their bleeding, lifeless, tiny bodies on their guns like it was a game.
And had Yamamoto chosen to invade our mainland, then you would have seen the same nearly-unspeakable atrocities occurring right in the streets of America.
You should thank God for our gun culture.
Nearly every nation that practiced gun control has eventually seen their citizens wiped out in acts of mass murder or genocide.
The same thing would happen here as well.
As a Western author, some would say I write stories that glorify America’s gun culture. As a gun owner and hunter, I proudly exercise my right to engage in America’s gun culture. As an American who respects the Constitution our Founders penned for us, I also celebrate our gun culture.
America’s gun culture, I praise it; I enjoy it. I honor it. I celebrate it. I am proud of it. I write stories about it. I often spend my leisure hours participating in it. I fill my freezer and my belly with it.
America’s gun culture, I believe God instituted it, our Founders gave everything to establish it, and our military often died to protect it.
I believe in America’s gun culture.
So should you!
This essay is so fucking retarded, it's patently offensive! They Imperial Japanese Army/Navy could no more have invaded the United States than they could have invaded Mars. The IJA suffered terrible casualties when facing mechanized forces in open ground, and there is no way they could have projected power across the Pacific as they barely had enough shipping and industrial production to hold onto what they had taken by 1942. They held out for so long because the USMC and the Army were forced to carry out complex amphibious assaults on volcanic Pacific islands that nullified their advantages in armor, firepower, and mobility. And if the Japanese had invaded America--which there's no way they feasibly could have--any citizen shooting at them would have not only been killed, but very likely his daughter might have been raped to death and his family starved or massacred (based on Japan's occupation of China). Personal firearms would have done nothing...
I'm starting to find it quite comical and entertaining watching all of you folks that are so freaked out over an invisible make-believe threat of gun control just getting all worked up over nothing. Especially idiots going out and stock-piling weapons and ammo...
There's not even a bill drafted in committee at a federal level. Yet you'd think the feds were out rounding up weapons door to door the way some folks are acting. Geez what a bunch of fools...
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
I will not register my weapons should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government’s right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime.
You ma’am have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am a Marine Corps Veteran of 8 years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one.
I am not your subject. I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.
I am the man who fought for my country. I am the man who learned. I am an American. You will not tell me that I must register my semi-automatic AR-15 because of the actions of some evil man.
I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.
And when Obama's security force come banging on your door, I suggest you surrender and hand over your weapons...
When BlacKKKwater nazi goons hired by the Chimp were literally banging on your neighbors doors (at least the ones who still HAD doors) and demanding their guns after Katrina, I don't recall you complaining about that.

Preparing for what's starting in Illinois is being foolish ??
C'mon Zah...
There is no trend and Illinois hasn't even passed anything. If... that's right... IF... they do pass anything it will take years in the legal system to determine it's constitutionality. Nothing happens quick and sure as hell not efficiently in any aspect of our legal system.
That's what I find so stupid about all these folks making knee-jerk decisions and for the most part acting totally irrational purchasing weapons and huge amounts of ammo... All while there is no imminent threat of anyone losing the rights to any gun ownership.
In simple southern terms... they ain't thinkin straight and actin nuttier than a squirrel turd...
What really concerns me is how much ammo and firepower is being stock-piled and odds are real good not being stored and secured responsibly just waiting for some half-wit to get a hold of them and cause another tragedy...
