A petition to consider signing

I normally hate petitions. And I normally don't take a definitive position on political topics on public message boards. But this one actually has my interest. I received it as an email from gunsamerica, I'd like to share it with you all to consider. Yes it sucks you have to sign up, but all they ask for is a name an an email. My rights are worth at least that.

Please Sign Pro-Gun WhiteHouse.gov Petition -- Share, Tweet and Email
Tragedy is a time when a President has to let go of the politics and cry with the people. But as the tears dry and the anger kicks in, the politics usually come back, and that is what is happening in the case of the tragedy of Adam Lanza. Already the media is suggesting that gun control could somehow have prevented the murder of the 27 innocents in Newtown Connecticut, and as you almost definitely already know, this is not the truth. Gun control may have actually been partially responsible for the tragedy, because all of the potential protectors in that school were disarmed by state law. Adam Lanza did not care what laws he was breaking on December 14th, 2012, and another law would not have gotten in his way. The real question is what made this disturbed young man into a murderer of children, and that certainly was not the availability of guns. We are not the gun lobby Mr. President. We are America's law abiding gun owners, and we would have all died with Victoria Soto and Dawn Hochsprung in defending the children with only our bodies on December 14th. Every single one of us would have obeyed the Connecticut law that mandated no guns on school property and left our guns at home. Gun owners are among the most law abiding of Americans, Mr. President, and we deserve your consideration to step aside from the politics and support the truth about this tragedy, not the political agenda put forth by the media and those who would compromise our 2nd Amendment rights.

Signed as well we need to get busy with some pro-gun movements now before the left takes complete control of this tragedy, and uses it to steamroll our second amendment rights.

Hey everyone- Don't forget this one!

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming, "WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!!"
