Gun Control: What separates reality from fantasy and paranoia?

Pittsburgh ShootingGun control, a big issue, but, what separates reality from fantasy and paranoia? The shooting in Pittsburgh is but one of the first, I fear, that will have at least some basis in the belief that President Obama and his regime, will somehow find a way to circumvent the U.S. Constitution, and take our guns away. This is the paranoia.

Don’t get me wrong, what the guy in Pittsburgh did was wrong, how it got started, his mental stability, his job loss, and so on. all play a part in this, but, what does it prove?

Americans have very little confidence in the government, and fear that the Constitution is in jeapardy. This is a huge problem, and could trigger more of the “less stable” to snap!  President Obama and his henchmen, will, if they get a chance, limit our rights to “Keep and bear arms”, we all know it, but, it is these type of events that give them the “ammo” (pardon the pun), to get the population behind such an idea!  This is where the fantasy comes in, it is that the very group that wants to keep guns, doing stupid things, that the “other” side believes is reality, this guy has provided fuel for their fantasies of getting rid of guns! The fantasy, of the perfect Utopia with no guns.

My heart goes out to the families and friends of anyone harmed in what this guy did.  Maybe we can all learn from this? The state of our society is in panic, because so many of us believe that the very fabric of our founding, is going to be unraveled, one line of the Constitution at a time, do we need to start shooting at each other? NO!

What we need is to stand up, and speak out, get others like us involved in expressing that “We the People” want to keep our Constitution, and maybe, just maybe, some that are teetering on the edge of sanity, will not be able to use that fear as an excuse! People come in all shapes, and flavors, but we have one thing in common, we are all Americans, and we need to act like it! People get sick, people go crazy, we all have problems, but, we can not blame one mans problem on all other mens freedoms! (or womens)

“This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future.”
