"Gun Grabbers' Global Gestapo"
"Gun Grabbers' Global Gestapo
by William F. Jasper

That the citizens of the United States of America are being disarmed -- both as individuals and as a nation -- can hardly be questioned. Succumbing to the siren promises of peace and safety, we are giving up our weapons to Godless global planners, who in turn are delivering us over to enemies -- both foreign and domestic -- who despise the foundations upon which our beloved nation was rounded.

A major problem for the American people in recognizing the terrible danger and treachery involved in our disarmament is the fact that it has been occurring as a gradual process rather than a single, discreet act. Domestic disarmament ("gun control") and national disarmament ("international arms control") have been proceeding simultaneously over the past 30 years, promoted by the same subversive forces. The gun control "movement," if allowed to succeed, will result in an unarmed American citizenry cowering before street criminals and completely subject to a totalitarian dictatorship run by even more dangerous criminals in Washington. The arms control "movement," meanwhile, is pushing us ever closer, and at an accelerating pace, toward a global tyranny in which control over our military has been relinquished to an all-powerful United Nations.

The central problem for the American people, however, in recognizing the danger before us, is our collective blindness due to the intellectual, moral and spiritual disarmament we have already permitted. The popular notions that guns cause crime and that armies and military weapons cause war -- and that the solution, therefore, is to disarm completely individuals and nations and transfer all weapons to a single governing authority -- are frightening manifestations of the extent of that disarmament. It is a sad reflection of the abandonment of the Christian worldview, which holds that war and crime are caused by men yielding to the sinful impulses of their fallen nature and violating the laws of God and society. The solution then, is two-fold: to work for the increase of virtue through the conversion of sinners, and to establish and maintain a just social order that recognizes the right, and allows the means, of both the individual and the nation-state to self-defense.

Jesus Christ himself taught: "When a strong man armed keepeth his court, those things are in peace which he possesseth. But if a stronger than he come upon him and overcome him, he will take away all his armour wherein he trusted, and will distribute his spoils" (Luke 11:21-22). Obviously, it is important to be armed physically, but trust in material arms is foolish if we do not also "put on the whole armour of God" (Ephesians 6:13)."

God and guns, nothing like it.

2. Ah, yes, the voice of "reason and logic"
Notice that only the scummiest public figures push the gun rights agenda...

"Armed with information from the pages of THE NEW AMERICAN, citizens across the country write letters to local newspaper editors, help their family and friends become better informed, attend town meetings, and take advantage of numerous other opportunities to reverse the dangerous trend of a naïve public being led by managed news.

Twice per year THE NEW AMERICAN publishes the Conservative Index, which rates every member of the Senate and House of Representatives on key issues from abortion, property rights and taxes, to education, welfare, and the Constitution. Contact information is given right on the page for readers to communicate with their Congressmen on their voting records."

Notice the swell ad on the page for the John Birch Society. And don't miss the endorsements from racist shitheels like Pat Buchanan...
