They Say.....

They say that we shouldn’t label all Muslims as evil, because many of them are good people. How do we know the difference by looking at them? Did you see the male shooter in San Bernadina? He looked like every other man I see.
They say we should ban guns, have strict gun control. I think we all agree on background checks when we buy a gun. But don’t we know that the bad guys will find a way to get a gun and mow people down? Law abiding citizens are the ones pay the cost for laws against guns, not the bad guys.

They say that guns kill. What about the people that Isis beheaded? Or the man that attacked in London. What about the homemade bombs in Boston? If you want to kill, you'll find a away. It doesn't have to be a gun.
They say we should not be allowed to carry a gun in public. I would hope that there’s a law abiding citizen near me carrying a gun, should I be at the mall, or theater, and a radical man or woman opens fire. At least we would all have a chance. Maybe the only one that would die would be the bad guy.
They say that we should not bring a gun into our work place. If someone had a gun at the Planned Parenthood Center, or in San Bernardina, is it possible that no one would have died except the crazy right wing man, or the radical Muslim who walked in freely and killed innocent people?
They say that guns are bad. People use guns to kill. Guns are not bad, people are bad.
They say that we should go about our lives not living in fear, because acts of terrorism are done to make us afraid. How do we do that? Do we not know that there are more acts planned. We are just too foolish to stop them?
They say that right wing people are crazy. They say that left wing people are too radical. Is it possible for us to meet in the middle? After all, we all have good points to make. Why must we be constantly divided?
They say that the God I serve isn’t the God of the Universe and He doesn’t really love us. If He did, why would so many bad things be happening? Is it possible that Satan is behind the bad things? And God grieves over our foolishness, and over watching the innocent die?
They say that God should be removed from our schools, sporting events, our pledge, and our anthem. Is it possible if we keep removing God from our nation, He will no longer honor our nation that was founded on Him?
Should we really believe all that they say? Or should we think for ourselves, stand up for our rights, and protect all that we have fought for over the years....

  1. Like minded. Many today, and that includes we Americans, have become so dumbed down that they don't know how to think anymore. It is easier to let others do the thinking even when it is wrong. We are going down a slippery slope faster and faster. We must strive to begin to think, study and act upon what will be best for our country. BUT first of all, we, Christians, must strive to be more like Christ every day, pray for the lost and seek God in all that we say and do.
