The Diane Rehm Show

Dear Democrats

Please grow a pair and stand up to the NRA NeoNutzi`s. Please show pictures of the dead children at Columbine and Newton. Show pictures of the aftermath of the AURORA massacre.. Let folks see what the NRA represents.

You either care about our children and grand children,or you allow them to be slaughtered. There is no middle ground.

Where has the media been? Why have you been absent as the NRA lobbyists dismantle our laws? John HinckleyJr. shot Reagan. If he got out,his shrinks could not testify of the danger his gun ownership represents.Thanks to the Lobbying of the GUN INDUSTRY and it`s organ grinder monkey NRA.

Here in Ohio we have a group called A.L.E.C.. Lobbyists who bribe legislators into allowing the LOBBYISTS to write our laws.. They`ve been committing these crimes since the 70`s.. Where has the media been?

Considering the NRA does not represent murderers but law abiding citizens, the pictures wouldn't show much in the way of graphic horrors. Maybe pictures of woman protecting themselves or family from home invaders or rapists. Possibly men target shooting or hunting, or people in general keeping themselves trained in firearms and equipped as the founders intended for the possibilities of what they warned us against. What you would see would be everyday good people, people for the most part that are responsible and law abiding in every aspect of their lives that just want to be left alone. To demonize the NRA is to demonize ordinary good people and the Constitution.

Maybe more informing would be to see the people democrats represent, a photographic expose on the failure of the war on poverty. I will stop here because this train of thought could truly get ugly.

All I hear from the NRA NeoNutzi`s is their crying and whining over the terrorists Obama got..Like this guy.. "Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S. citizen and one of the most wanted terrorists on a U.S. target list, has been killed in Yemen".

The whining and constant crying by the NeoNutzi`s over Bin Laden`s death has been horrible to hear and treasonous.The time for terrorists to protest is when the U.S.Government puts a WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE POSTER UP...

Where is the anguish over all the dead murdered and blood soaked children? No we`re sorry? No remorse? No nothing?Instead the NeoNutzi`s attack the Obama girls. Exactly the low life tendencies of snakes.

HSBC fined for money laundering for the terrorists.The NRA is the arms supplier of the terrorists. Stopping the government`s effort of "Fast and Furious",instead going after the Justice Dept.... Despite it being an ATF function.The same agency the NRA managed to get every director fired since 2005. If the ATF tried to do it`s job,the NRA was there to stop it... If it looks like a terror supporter,smells like a terror supporter,provides the weaponry for the terrorists...THEY MUST BE TERRORISTS TOO!!! There are a reported 20,000 missing and presumed dead at the hands of the Mexican Drug Cartel terrorists. How many must die before the NRA to cares?

It was Ted Nugent,washed up rock star who threatened to kill President Obama and Hillary Clinton last November.He now sits on the NRA board. That is what a terrorist does...

Don’t quite get how rational people insist that they must have weapons capable of killing dozens of folks in seconds.
For self defense? They must be REALLY bad shots.
Because it’s a “freedom” enshrined in B of R and we’s all about “Freedom”?
No, not really, the 2nd Amendment is pretty ambiguous- it seems to endorse well-trained militias- not particularly armed to the teeth vigilantes.
Is it because we need to have super weapons to fend off our own Gov? That’s so ridiculous a supposition it doesn’t even merit discussion.
Is it because responsible gun owners deserve to enjoy the hobby they love with whatever weapon they choose? Can understand that, but firmly believe they may need sacrifice this privilege (sorry), so as that it might be harder for those less responsible to access these weapons.
Is it impossible to imagine that a once responsible gun- owner might one day lose it? Is it impossible to imagine a gun owner not locking his weapons away securely enough that someone not so responsible may one day get access?
It seems that these folks, for all their bluster, don’t have a leg to stand on, morally or ethically, but also realize this hasn’t stopped them in the past.
I’m hoping that sanity will prevail, common sense steps will be taken, and administration's current initiatives will be passed.

Don't be fooled into thinking this is about an "assault weapon ban" because handguns can do the same damage, all rifles involved in murders amounts to 2.5% all rifles not just "assault rifles", hammers and clubs 3.6%. This is about a foot in the door for a total gun ban. This is a back door attempt to get handguns.

Whatever happened to the feminist movement? Has it been reduced to a patriarchal government dependence movement? Woman are the first responders for any trouble that comes their way, I would think armed self protection would be at or near the top of their list. Nothing equalizes the situation with a criminal than the ability to own and use a firearm.

Maybe the men in the democrat party feel woman are just to emotional to own handguns. Maybe they think PMS renders woman less capable of rational though? In any case obviously they think they are not to be trusted. This is the message of the democrat party, we know better, leave it to the government and wait for the "authorities" to arrive.

If anyone thinks those kids and those fake letters to the president are not some phony put on for your consumption, you really are a fool. Gun rights proponents could easily do the same. These were anti second amendment parents in cooperation with the White House using children to deceive people into giving up Constitutional rights.

I cannot save my money as I see fit for my own retirement because of unconstitutional social welfare programs.

I cannot as a law abiding citizen exercise my rights under the second amendment because of the infringements placed on us by previous anti gun legislation.

My first amendment rights are being violated by the current president for interference in religious liberties.

My fourth amendment rights with unconstitutional search and seizure laws are being violated.

There are more but that's enough, you have no idea of what you are talking about.

You and your guest are absolutely wrong! The NRA ad was NOT despicable or repugnant! All it said was what everyone already knows...the presidents children are protected by armed guards. They were not mentioned by name. They were not attacked. They were not put at risk or even the main point of the ad...it was the President who was at the center. Just because you say something over and over does not make it the truth. Your guest is participating in sensationalism at it's worst...using peoples' fears and knee-jerk reactions to a very benign thing to create some kind of public outrage against another group. Stop it and try to be logical, please.

A little more thought on what has been taken away from me personally by an unconstitutional federal government. Because the violations of constraints of Article 1 Section 8 by the federal government which have been going on for a very long time and primarily pushed by progressive democrats. In 2013 my very future is at stake because of it and so is the prosperity of the country, the value of my savings are being eroded on a daily basis by the federal reserve printing money to keep the welfare state afloat. My safety is at stake because of the probable riots that will take place when deficit spending comes to a halt and the entitlement addicts revolt. My child's future is being stolen with the massive federal debt, her opportunities in a broken economy will make her prospects a lot more difficult. All the infringements on constitutional personal freedom will expand in her life time. National security will be undermined by the welfare state, and it will be a more expensive and dangerous world for her to live in.

If you do not recognize the truth in my words, you are indeed a fool. So if the road to hell is lined with the faces of children, in your world, it's OK to just keep going. Propaganda is the candy for the idiot, and Obama is expert on serving it, bon appetit!

How long does it take to fix a website.? These problems have been going on for more than a week

Seems it is overwhelmed extremely easy.

Is there something else going on here, something deliberate?

I've heard several attempts on NPR to address the NRA's ad re. how the Obama children were receiving armed protection at school while Obama opposes a proliferation of armed guards to all schools. Yet, even though the ad has been out for several days, Ari Shaprio seemed taken off guard by the final caller to today's program.

I have yet to hear either of these really obvious points raised in response to that charge of hypocrisy: 1) the Obama girls (and their fellow students) must surely be at least 10,000 times more at risk of attack and/or of being taken hostage than the average U.S. student; 2) the presence of very highly trained secret service agents (recent antics in Colombia not withstanding) within and in the vicinity of a school surely poses far less risk of guns falling into the wrong hands, death from friendly fire, etc. than would putting the likes of Blackwater in charge of school security.

The Late Bush Administration was the most corrupt in history and when Obama attempted to keep his promise to close Guantanamo and try the Prisoners in Constitutional Courts, the Reagan/Bush/CIA/Mossad/FBI/NeoCon/GOP/Jew Media/Military/Hoover Institution/NPR/Bloomberg News/MI5-MI6/ NRA Militia/ Kabal unleashed a blizzard of threats.

Threats including numerous Commentaries in the Kabal's Media, like the WSJ, WaPo, NYT etc, by the Bush Attorney General who was up to his keister in the Cover-up and Protection of the Mastermind of the Embassy and first WTC Bombings, intimating at the dire consequences of allowing the Quantanamo Prisoners to tell their stories and reveal any possible involvement of the Bush Administration in the Terror attacks on the US.

Then when the President and his Daughters were Halloweening, the Kabal's media took and printed photos of the President, his kids and Secret Service, completely identifying the Agents.

Then there was the video of the President's kids being driven up to the school in the SUV, alighting from the vehicle and walking into the School.

Never in my lifetime, have I seen such deliberate attempts to expose some of the most intimate parts of the Presidental Family's Security.

No it isn’t. You’re paranoid.
It’s about “assault weapons” & multiple round magazines.
It’s not even about the millions of weapons gun owners already possess out there already-
It’s about not adding twice as many millions.
Get a grip.

I do not think the stronger gun laws will help. Criminals don't apply for background checks. Criminals don't follow laws. What is causing the deaths in Chicago? Could the problem be with education, mental health, the economy, & lack of parental responsibility.
