The Truth Is Out There

The Save One Life LIE


The Administration’s “Save One Life” Lie

A favorite saying of both President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden is that more gun control laws must be instituted because “even if just one life was saved, it would be worth it.”
 

This statement is not only, disingenuous (Biden has even said he knows such laws won’t stop mass slayings or reduce crime), but also dangerous—to you, to me, to our children and to our grandchildren.

When it comes to “saving one life,” what about those lives saved by legal firearm ownership? Shouldn’t those lives, which you seldom hear about in the so-called “mainstream” media, also be important to those in charge in Washington, d.C.?

Each month, MANY law-abiding Americans saving lives with firearms. And, trust me, if I had the space, I could list many, many of them.

Wasn’t the young mother from Georgia, who saved herself and her 9-year-old twins by shooting a home intruder, a life worth saving? And what about the lives of the twins?

Apparently Obama and Biden could care less about the lives of law-abiding American citizens saved by the use of firearms.

What about Bryan Lee, the pharmacy owner from Madera, Calif., who saved both himself and his mother by shooting an armed gunman who came in, guns blazing?

Or Rafael Lantigua of Lawrence, Mass., who ran off armed robbers with his own gun without ever firing a shot; Clint Lowery of Port Angeles, Wash., who used a gun to save himself and his 2-year-old daughter from a home intruder, again without even firing a shot; or Roger Mundell of Amherst, Mass., who used a gun to save himself and his nephew from a rabid bobcat that had already wounded them both?

If just one life was saved by not further infringing on our Second Amendment rights, shouldn’t we immediately stop even considering these measures that do nothing but harm innocent, law-abiding gun owners?

Apparently Obama and Biden could care less about the lives of law-abiding American citizens saved by the use of firearms. Neither has ever acknowledged that lives are saved thousands of times a year by good people using privately owned firearms.

I believe they simply do not care. Besides, if they acknowledged the lives saved by the use of firearms, their gun-ban agenda would completely derail. Each instance of them ignoring an example of defensive gun use is further proof they 11 do anything within their power to ban guns, even if it costs you, me or any other law-abiding American his or her life.

So it is asked of President Obama and Vice President Biden this question: Since more than “one life” will be saved by not implementing further gun control measures, shouldn’t you immediately stop promoting such bans?
