Ted Nugent On Gun Control


Recommended Posts

I have seen o'l Ted on TV several times where he is talking about the NRA, Gun Control, the 2nd Amendment, about Hunting and Guns in general and I have to say that, he made a few comments that really shocked me. I wont go into it but to say that the NRA should NEVER use him as a Spokesperson. Since I can't remember the exact wording he used I will not attemp to say what he said, I do remember that I thought Ted is turning into a radical and should be watched.

Exactly! When people following the rules and excercising their RIGHTS begin discussing-especially out loud-where, when and how they will, as a law abiding citizen, excercise their rights the "WATCHERS" need to be notified!

 

It is disturbing when they discuss without fear of the "WATCHERS" seeing and knowing, how they might protect themselves and their families. What if they actually injured or killed one of the hapless criminals while excercising their 2nd AMENDMENT RIGHTS preventing a violent crime? Maybe this criminal could have been rehabilitated after having it explained to him/her that theft, rape, murder or any other # of violent felonies is WRONG.

 

The MOTOR CITY MADMAN did it all wrong by explaining bluntly, in black and white, in language that was so easily understandable by the simplest of minds and we all know that just won't do.

 

Call out the "WATCHERS"! Not to watch the repeat offender violent felons but the law abiding, registered, properly trained CITIZENS EXCERCISING THEIR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!

 

NO, NO, NO! Ted and millions of other Americans are correct to act, believe, function and excercise their RIGHTS AS U.S. CITIZENS. We have MILLIONS of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, EARLY RELEASED FELONS (ILLEGALLY BY CROOKED JUDGES IN MY BOOK), ADDICTS LOOKING FOR MEDICINE OR MONEY, PUNKS WANTING YOUR CAR, MOLESTERS OR RAPIST AFTER YOUR CHILDREN OR WIFE.

 

You may not have time for law enforcement to come to your aid or protect you or your family. That is when your 2nd amendment rights are needed the most.

 

The people who "WATCH" have plenty to do without watching law abiding citizens.

If only every politician lived by those standards and the balls to speak the truth like that this country would be so much better off. In fact, any politician that does not agree with this line of thinking does not have any business being a politician. They are the real problem that is what's wrong with everything in this country.

 

That isn't an extremist. It is the moron left wing liberals that the dangerous extremists!

Yeah, he is an "interesting" fellow to be sure, and I have heard him say some crazy $hit. However, I can't fault anything he said in that interview!!

America needs that kind of tactless honesty to swing us back on the correct track.

I've always liked "The Nooge" and I would like to see him run for an office to test his fiber so-to-speak. Would he continue with his present path or would he conform and become like the rest of our soft-bellied, disgusting political leaders overfeeding at the trough?

A radical? All he's doing is espousing the EXACT same beliefs our country was founded on. All the things he says can be found in the Federalist Papers, if not the Constitution! These were the principals our Founding Fathers were willing to die for.

Why I carry a gun

 

My old grandpa said to me son,' there comes a time in every man's life

when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's

when he becomes too old to take an a@@ whoopin'.

 

I don't carry a gun to kill people.

I carry a gun to keep from being killed

 

I don't carry a gun to scare people.

I carry a gun because some times this world can be a scary place.

 

I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.

I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.

 

I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.

I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the

world.

 

I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.

I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.

 

I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.

I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating

myself for failing to be prepared.

 

I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.

I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and

not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.

 

I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.

I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a

cowboy.

 

I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.

I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the

ones they love.

 

I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.

I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am

inadequate.

 

I don't carry a gun because I love it.

I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful

to me.

 

Police Protection is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves.

Police do not protect you from crime, they usually just investigate the

crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

 

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to

take an a@@ whoopin'.

 

....author unknown (but obviously brilliant)

 

I would rather be judged by twelve than carried by six.

I'm a conservative Democrat.

I like some of Ted's beliefs but I had a few problems with what Ted said:

 

Talked about "the slave drivers of Europe"

 

Well, I'm pretty sure it was our guns that help Americans become the slave drivers, a legacy that continues to haunt this country.

 

The founding fathers didn't leave Europe so that they could "practice the religion of their choice".

They left to avoid paying taxes.

 

But Ted's argument falls short because guns are not just being used for defense. They are being used to commit crime or cause injuries by accident far more than they are providing defense. And putting handguns in holsters on every innocent woman in the country is just going to cause more accidents than we already have. The answer is to form well regulated militias, which will be armed yet trained to defend the population.

 

Then they could go into Hawaiian Gardens and kill those 100+ gang members, instead of arresting them and causing the Govt to spend millions housing and feeding them.

Who cares what Ted Nugent has to say? He's a moron and I certainly wouldn't want a burn out from the 70's carrying the public torch on an issue I cared about.

 

Ken

 

So, please explain where he was wrong, or factually inacurate in what he said.

So, based on that ludicrous statement, all guns should be banned? Are you insane?

 

Obviously, you don't have the FACTS in hand when you make that statement. The mainstream media will never report the true facts. If you look at the statistics, even from our Socialist Commissar's own Department of Justice, the incidents of people using firearms in self defense outnumbers the thugs using illegally acquired firearms by a margin of at least a million to one. Yes, you read that correctly.

 

If you have any sense of decency, you would do research on this issue before making such a ludicrous statement. Stop drinking the Cool-Aid. Educate yourself on what really happens on a day-to-day basis.

 

As a sample of the latest JOD report, the undeniable facts speak for themselves. In states/communities where right-to-carry and the Castle Doctrine have been enacted, the crime rate is at least 92% less than communities where law abiding citizens are restricted from owning guns.

 

I'm really sick and tired of people who would take my rights away, as a law abiding citizen, simply on the basis of "I don't like guns!" As the Nuge says, what gives you the right to take away my GOD given right to defend myself and my family from some punk who would kill us all just to get a hit of crack? Are you going to sit there and try to talk to him about why he had such a pitiful childhood when he's raping your 14 year old daughter with a gun to her head?

 

WAKE UP! ARM YOURSELF! THERE ARE BAD PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO WOULD KILL YOU FOR $20 WORTH OF DRUGS!

 

If Ted were to run for President, I'd duplicate the check I wrote for my KR for his candidacy. We need someone to step up and defend the rights that our founding fathers espoused, and were willing to give their lives for.

 

PLEASE think about your position on this issue, and most of all, learn the FACTS

Can you tell me where you found these statistics? Couldn't locate anything like this at the DOJ. thanks.

Texas is a big gun state.

 

This year, even with Dallas being the sh!t hole it is, DMN reported-

Through the end of April, total crime would have dropped about 12.5 percent from the same period last year without the reporting change, rather than the 17.5 that was recorded. Violent crimes also dropped nearly 19 percent and property crimes dropped about 17 percent from the same period last year. Overall, that represents 5,200 fewer serious crimes, including robberies, burglaries, murders and thefts, police said.

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dw...n1.49b40b5.html

 

Pretty amazing since usually in a recession or depression crime goes up!

 

So does not knowing who is packing deter criminals? I can not speak for everyone but I know if I were a criminal, that $50 someone might be carrying is not worth the potential .45 slug from either the potential victim or someone else in close proximity. Around here citizens are fighting back and it is showing.

 

Just this morning there was a report on the news about a grandmother who fended off a would be attacker/thief at a gas station with a car jack! Bravo!

 

Of course that wouldn't work for us SGT owners. I guess we could smack 'em with a tire inflator and squirt sealant in their eyes!..... :hysterical:

 

Criminals do not fear cops. They fear an armed and defiant citizen!

There are millions of law abiding gun owners out there that did not shoot anyone yesterday.

 

It was only the limited number of ruthless criminals that shot someone. The difference is that the law abiding person is trying to protect themselves from being killed by a criminal.

 

Guns are not responsible for killing people any more than a vehicle is responsible for killing people. Remember that there are many people killed every day by vehicles.

 

I wish everyone could figure this out.

 

Do we start banning motorized vehicles (cars, trucks, airplanes, snowmobiles, ATV, motorcycles, race cars...) after we get rid of all the guns?

 

Come on America...WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are a few history facts that some of us may not remember:

 

 

A LITTLE GUN HISTORY

 

In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

------------------------------

 

In 1911,Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

------------------------------

 

Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.

------------------------------

 

China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated

------------------------------

 

Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

---- ------------- -------------

 

Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

------------------------------

 

Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

-----------------------------

 

Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.

------------------------------

 

It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own Government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results are now in:

 

List of 7 items:

 

Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent.

 

Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent.

 

Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!

 

In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!

 

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.

 

There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort, and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.

Shall we look at the real Austrailian facts and figures as recorded by the Australian Institute of Criminalogy

http://www.aic.gov.au/publications/facts/2...igures_2008.pdf

http://www.aic.gov.au/publications/facts/1998/facts.pdf

 

It goes on and on with mind numbing figures but it does show Homicides down by 72 people in 2007 from 1996 numbers yet surprisingly there is only an 11% difference in Firearms related homicides. So lets see, that is 74.34 people Killed with a firearm in 1996 and 31.02 people killed in 2007 with a Firearm. Wow! Fantastic!

 

But wait, there's more -

In the same 11 year span:

Assult went from 114,00 to 176,00 (up in 11 years)

Sexual Assult went from 14,500 to 19,700 (up in 11 years)

Robbery went from 16,300 to 17,900 (up in 11 years)

Kidnapping went from 478 to 730 (up in 11 years)

 

BTW, on page 14 -

Previous editions of Australian crime: facts & figures used ABS data on causes of death, but coding procedures used since 2004 (related to an increase in the number of open coroners' cases)

have resulted in an undercounting in those data of firearm deaths due to assault (i.e. firearm homicide).

emphasis mine - BR

 

 

 

 

 

I like page 29 as well -

 

 

 

15% of armed roberies involved firearms(and 3% involved syringes

:headscratch: ). That's pretty low!

 

 

 

Oh wait. In 1997 only 10% of armed roberies involved a firearm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ahhh. Gun control works.
