It is time that God fearing, Bible reading, legal gun carrying Americans stood up to this Bolshevik mind set, set on depriving us of our freedoms and rights. SUE THEM.

Speaking as a former officer (and soldier) I believe from the facts presented in this article that the REAL criminal(s) in this case were the officers and supervisor, as well as the State of Wisconsin, whom they represent. This man's weapon not only needs to be returned forthwith with many apologies, but also with a check from the State for the loss of the use of his (personal) property, and further damages for potential death or injury he was exposed to during the time it was in State custody. If I had been the responding officer, I would have made a point to go to the original complainant and explain to him that Mr. Krause was not in violation of any criminal law, and that he had feared for his safety due to the death threats mentioned. If Mr. Dkystra had an issue with that, I would suggest he arm himself also when on his own property, so that there would be a 'parity' of potential force. The Government cannot (contrary to Tom Cruise movies) regulate POTENTIAL crime, only crime which has already been committed, and in this case it appears Mr. Krause was a threat to no one, and I think I would like to have such a neighbor. - beauman Sat, 21 Feb 2009 11:52:10 +0100 http://jbs.org/jbs-news-feed/4525-at-the-sight-of-a-gun#comment-619 I resent gun grabbers such as Ted Kennedy the author of the `968 Gun Control Act not telling people it was the same thing as the German Gun Control Act of 1928 which the Nazis exploited. Lenin used Gun Control measures after killing Tsar Nicholas II and his family in 1918 and institute his Marxist Dictatorship of the Proletariat as my brave father taught me. Chuck Schumer is Jewish but he is a gun grabber and an opposite of Aaron Spelman's Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership. The 1787 Constitution provided for an armed and regulated militia and a citizen'a right to keep and bear arms as Dad knew the constitution very well teaching me. The Second Amendment is being violated and this must stop as I had given them some help. The owner of Bob's Gun Shop in Darien is a Birch member like my late father an me as he considered me a reliable NRA member and a fine retired Marine BGen. - Peter Steele Sat, 21 Feb 2009 11:22:09 +0100 http://jbs.org/jbs-news-feed/4525-at-the-sight-of-a-gun#comment-620 I resent gun grabbers such as Ted Kennedy the author of the `968 Gun Control Act not telling people it was the same thing as the German Gun Control Act of 1928 which the Nazis exploited.

For instance: Why should a state government, Texas, be allowed to require a permit for a person to carry a concealed weapon when the federal Constitution guarantees our right to keep armed? Should federal police arrest state governments for breaking the law of the land? Since we are dealing with a state government should we call out the U.S. Army? I think so, if need be. I'm thinking about sending this letter to our local paper. We only get one letter a month so I have plenty of time to edit it properly. For the past 35 years they have printed about everything I've sent them. - MarkGlen Sat, 21 Feb 2009 03:13:24 +0100 http://jbs.org/jbs-news-feed/4525-at-the-sight-of-a-gun#comment-609 This Dykstra boob is obviously one of the millions of spineless, limp wristed pansies that are infecting the nation today. Wouldn't it be justice if a criminal broke into his home and robbed him at gunpoint!? As I said in an earlier posting, these spineless, limp wristed sob sisters and fools probably won't have to worry too much longer about having their idiotic sensibilities offended by the sight of an armed private citizen because the only armed people will be criminal scum and government agents (please to excuse the redundancy). If the government were truly interested in doing its proper job of protecting us, it would be sponsoring classes on how to use and maintain weapons; but I sure won't hold my breath on that one. Oh yeah, by the way, be a good Nazi and tip off a government agency about something your neighbor is doing that you don't like. There's certain to be some "law" against it. - danwhitehead1 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 09:55:57 +0100
