CRANKY THE TRUCKER's blog: "WE NEED TO DO SOMTHING QUICK"

I was watching the news tonight and was shocked to see the senless death of a CU student. He was shot once in the chest. This brought back memories of a good friend of mine that was killed for no reason in Alaska a few years back. I am NOT by any means a gun controal advocate, I own two firearms my self...a .357 magnum and a Yougoslavian SKS, and as soon as I can afford more I am planing to buy more. For all of my life I have supported the Second Adment and I do beleive that those of us that are law abiding citizens NEED to do somthing about the unlawful use and senless killings that are threatening our way of life. As Americans the right to bear arms is somthing that we hold near and dear to our hearts, going back to the birth of our country and it is somthing that most of us to this day are willing to fight for. However due to recent events, including the Ft. Hood attack, and constant gun violence in the news, we are soon to be in the minority on the issue. I for one don't want to be forced to give up my weapons. We have only reacently regained the ability to carry a concealed weapon and semiautomatic rifles with little or no repercutions from law enforcement. We HAVE TO stand up for our rights and tell the world that Americans are not as violent as we seem to be, and that the only time we are going to turn our weapons on other people is when we are threatenend.
