Gun control via the U.N.

In the July 27 Press, a headline read, White House says "No Push for New Gun Laws."

That statement is true and probably because he has said "We will pursue another route"!

That route is this: at this very time he, (Obama) and Hillary are working feverishly at the U.N. for final wording on the UN Gun Control Treaty. He has already said that he will sign it. The gun haters and the administration would turn over the control of guns in America to the U.N. - the likes of Iran, Cuba, Chavez, Russia and China. They would rather that the U.N. Treaty regulations replace the Constitutional Second Amendment!!! Would you be happy with this?

Oh, and in the same article it quotes Senator Harry Reid as saying "their schedule is too packed to even have a debate on gun control." The Republican House has sent 30 bills to the Senate for discussion, consideration and some action in the last year and one-half. Senator Reid will not even call one of them up to debate or discuss, yet they blame the Republicans for not getting anything done. Reid and the President do not want things to improve.

Mr. Obama's scheme is to lay low, say nothing and do nothing about the U.N. Gun Control Treaty until after the election and his liberal senators are all safely home and whether or not he is re-elected try to push through the U.N. Treaty. His life long trait of devious opportunism will raise its ugly head again and he will continue his attempt to destroy the good things of America, put in place by the Constitution. Be alert to follow this scurrilous plan. If you doubt me, Google it!

To save space for this column I will list the characteristics of two different men and I hope you will consider them carefully. They are almost diametrically opposed and are as follows: builder-wrecker, truthful-lying, honest-cunning, kind-brutal, selfish-kind, cruel-loving, hateful-open minded, opinionated-affable in disagreements, habit of destroying opponents-accepting historical morals of society, overturning good institutions of history-seeking good will, holding a grudge-kind and humble, arrogant-acerbic ... the list could go on.

These are the characteristics of two totally different men. Some say that to evaluate these men is to judge. Our Scripture says that "by their fruits (words, actions, direction of life, deeds) you will know them." It does not say judge, but to inspect and observe how people live. Does the life produce strife, jealousy, anger, enmity, immorality, impurity, sensuality, disputes, factions, envy selfishness?

Or does it show love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, long-suffering?

I have described two very different men in history. The more desirable is President George Washington, and the second is Josef Stalin. Washington was responsible for the birth of America. Stalin killed at least 100 million people.

As we look to Nov. 6, it is true that although our candidates do not have the same names as these men, they are almost as different.

Let us say you are a young family. Your family is acquainted with these two young 20 year old men who so greatly differ. You have watched the good and the bad for years. Your family has two beautiful, good naive young women aged eighteen and 20. Would you encourage your pure daughter to date the young man with Stalin's character traits? Would you be like Lot ... willing to sacrifice your daughter?

Are you as concerned about the qualities already demonstrated for the world to see of the man you marry this great land, the U.S. of America, to?

Please join the people of America who think and do the right thing.
