A Need To Know!

in #guns7 years ago (edited)

Are you tired of mass manipulation on the news? Mainstream media talking about there needs to be more gun control or outright banning guns, talking about terrorist being a major threat. It’s all a big farce! Simply put, its fear based mind control. These statistics will put some perspective on where the underlying danger in America is.

So, how bad is it? Looking up the death statistics was an eye opener to say the least. It shows that candy, soda, pizza, any junk food you can think of is by far the biggest threat to Americans. I cannot stress how much more of a threat junk food is to Americans compared to guns and terrorist. Here are a few examples to help you realize how crazy this fear based campaign is. You’re 34 times more likely to fall out of bed and die vs getting killed by a terrorist. Yet, I don’t see no war on beds. You’re 64 times more likely to die from a heart attack vs getting killed by a firearm. Yet, I don’t see no war on cheese burgers.

The conclusion. There is a never ending war on our consciousness. A war where instead of dropping bombs they use manipulation to get you to move when & where they want. Remember we are all born into this world a free person. Beware of anyone who attempts to dictate what you can and can’t do with your life. Don’t let anyone convince you of anything until you take the due diligence to fact check what they are saying.

P.S. The 2 amendment was not meant to protect your right to hunt, it was meant to defend yourself against a tyrannical government. It’s not a matter of if it will happen, it’s a matter of when it will happen. So, yes, semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons are a must to defend ourselves from any government gone rogue.

Excellent, drugs, cars and cheeseburgers advertise on the evening news, guns do not. don't get me going on varicose veins and DVT

Estimates suggest that 60,000-100,000 Americans die of DVT/PE (also called venous thromboembolism).
10 to 30% of people will die within one month of diagnosis.
Sudden death is the first symptom in about one-quarter (25%) of people who have a PE.

And yet I could not find a single article on NPR about it.

Right, I hear you.

Your doctor is more likely to kill you than an armed criminal.

Very true, yet most people have faith in their doctor and the medical industry.

Great article. It’s so true. The media has completely exaggerated the issue. Thanks for bringing clarity to the issue. I wrote a similar article today about how there is no logic in the mainstream gun debate. I would love to hear your thoughts.
