Col. Cooper was a career Marine officer who served in both WWII and the Korean war. Its interesting that the organization that was formerly known as the National Coalition to Ban Handguns can link him and Adam Lanza with a straight face. It is nice to know that someone in that group is reading the Col's writings. As long as we're quoting him, lets quote the whole thing.
"The left-liberals are ceaseless in their determination to disarm the decent people of the world. Sadly enough, a great many decent people seem to have no objection to being disarmed. America may well be the last best hope of Earth, but there are many Americans who have no understanding of why this is so. It is so because America is the remaining bastion of political liberty. The armed citizen is the essence of political freedom, and an armed citizenry may not be enslaved, as our Founding Fathers well knew. The way to ensure liberty is to ensure that every man be armed - according to the tenets of Mr. Jefferson. Times change, but that principle does not. You can only push people around if they submit to being pushed, and this is impossible if they are personally armed. Thus the Second Amendment of the US Constitution has nothing to do with hunting. It has rather to do with the security of a free state against all enemies foreign and domestic. Hunting, of course, should be encouraged, since it familiarizes the general public with the expert use of personal weapons, but it does not lie at the heart of the problem. A disarmed public is a conspicuous encouragement to crime, as the example of Britain will point out. I submit that we do not have a serious crime problem in the US. Such goblins that choose to prey upon other people will find means to do so regardless of technology. Just as a man who wishes to find cocaine will find it, a man who wishes to find a gun will find it, regardless of what the law says. It is far better for all the people to be able to protect themselves - by force and violence if necessary." http://myweb.cebridge.net/mkeithr/Jeff/jeff12_1.html
And lets add this one from the same page. While I cant claim to have originally enlisted for the right reasons, I believe I reenlisted for the reasons he mentions.
"Now here we have some fellow who joined the Army "to get an education." That is the wrong reason. You join the Army to enforce the will of the people of the United States of America, by force, against their enemies. An Army exists for two reasons: first, to kill people, and second, to be so good at it that any threatening group will be intimidated to the point of inactivity. You do not join the Army to get anything. You join the Army to give of yourself, terminally if called for. I am not sure what this fellow means by "an education," but his meaning and mine obviously do not coincide."
Keep spewing your racist antisemite lying garbage. Your own words prove me correct, and thanks for proving me correct. Time for you to send more money to support your racist buddy Ted Nugent and his racist group the NRA.
Since the one has nothing to do with the other, it isn't all that interesting. That's especially true since Cooper was himself a teacher.
ReplyDeleteDid Cooper also have students ranked lowest in the nation, as your kids are?
DeleteAnonymous, why do you take the time to lie repeatedly? Fuck off.
DeleteNo lie, the results were posted. You are a failure as a teacher and a human being. Now go pick up some boy and get your butt fuck for the week.

Lets hope he was a better soldier than you. You have proven to be a cowardy liar.
DeleteThere needs to be a new organization: Trolls for Gun Control.
ReplyDeleteWhy not you are a troll for gun rights. An asshole lying criminal coward racist for gun rights. You are Ted Nugent.
DeleteKeep believing that, Anonymous. I like enemies who aren't too bright.
