Simon in <a href=\"https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/diaryofamadvoter\/2015\/12\/6\/how-i-joined-nra\">How the &#39;New York Times&#39; and Loretta Lynch Made Me Join the NRA<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia,palatino;\">Did you catch the fiery Judge Jeanine Pirro&#39;s &#39;opening&#39;&#0160; on Saturday evening?&#0160;<a href=\"http:\/\/insider.foxnews.com\/2015\/12\/06\/judge-jeanine-after-san-bernardino-terrorists-here-time-start-fighting-survival\"> Here<\/a> is the clip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia,palatino;\">But let my inject a word of caution.&#0160; Gun ownership is a grave responsibility.&#0160; You can&#39;t just buy a gun, load it, and stick it under the bed. You must know the law.&#0160; You must take care that your weapons are not stolen.&#0160; You must get training.&#0160; You must practice with your weapons.&#0160; A gun instructor told me that until you have put a thousand rounds through a piece you shouldn&#39;t consider yourself proficient in its use.&#0160; You must have a plan as to how you will deal with certain contingencies.&#0160; You must know yourself.&#0160; In the heat of a conflict will you have the stomach to shoot a human being?&#0160; Hesitation can get you killed.&#0160; These are points that the good Judge failed sufficiently to underscore, not that I blame her for it.&#0160; <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia,palatino;\">As for the foolish Obama, he has proven to be the poster boy for gun sales in these United States.&#0160; Way to go, dude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia,palatino;\">And don&#39;t forget what the&#0160; agenda is: <em>confiscation<\/em>.&#0160; Being&#0160; mendacious to the core, Obama, Hillary, and their ilk won&#39;t call it what it is; they call it gun control, as if we have none.&#0160; The same pattern as with Islamic terror.&#0160; They won&#39;t call it what it is.&#0160;
