                 AMERICA SOON TO BE DISARMED?

The American Bar Association sent out a letter to all registered
attorneys that arrived Friday, 22 October. The letter said that the
ABA had met in New York City and unanimously decided to support a
TOTAL BAN ON ALL FIREARMS, EXCEPT THOSE USED BY POLICE AND THE
MILITARY. The Los Angeles Times and other major media followed suit.
Remember U.S. State Department publication 7277, "The United States
Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World."
Page 10 states:

  "The manufacture of armaments would be prohibited, except for
   those of agreed types and quantities to be used by the United
   Nations Peace Force and those required to maintain internal
   order. All other armaments would be destroyed ...."

As you are reading this, the United States Congress is deciding on
several momentous motions. Action is expected on the Brady bill,
Clinton's Crime bill, the Crime Control Act of 1993, and the
Protection Against Terrorism Act of 1993. All of these bills have
one target -- disarming the American People! Recall the words of
Hillary Clinton:

  ".... tax directly the purveyors of violence."

And Bill Clinton:

  "This effort against crime will not be complete if we do not
   eliminate assault weapons."

Ms. Brady is on record with this politically correct proclamation:

  "Our task of creating a socialist America can only succeed when
   those who would resist us have been totally disarmed."

I mentioned months ago that the tax on Federal Firearms Licenses,
guns and ammunition would skyrocket. Look for a ten-fold increase in
FFLs, and a 25 percent increase in gun-related items. This will be
justified as a contribution toward Clinton's Health Care Plan.

Clinton's Crime Bill, sponsored by Joe Biden in the Senate and Jack
Brooks in the House of Representatives, calls for a national police
force and "SHOCK INCARCERATION PROGRAMS" for young first-time
offenders. The bill numbers are S1488 and HR3131. There are three
versions of the Brady Bill (S414, HR277 and HR1025). The Crime
Control Act (S8) is sponsored by Senator Orrin Hatch, and proposes
fifty new reasons for which an American citizen can be PUT TO DEATH.
IT NULLIFIES MOST OF OUR BILL OF RIGHTS! For example: property
forfeitures, arrests, fines and prison terms can result from

  ".... activities which APPEAR to be intended toward violence."

  [JD: Just traveling to a range to fire one's pistol would probably
   be considered as a violation of the Crime Control Act.]

Distribution of this newsletter could qualify [in their definition
of a criminal offense]. Senator Strom Thurman introduced [presumably
in the Senate] a license to steal [act], which makes it legal for
the Federal Government to take your home and everything else you
have, if your home is tainted by a planning meeting that violates
the statute.

  [JD: And the factuality of the meeting will not stand in the way
   of their false charges against you. They create their own facts.]

For example, if a "pro-life" rally results in blocking access to
public abortion clinics -- you lose! The Government confiscates your
property first, without your being tried or adjudicated guilty.

Attorney-General Janet Reno & Company are spurting out statistics
over the [corporate] mass media. The best source of information
comes from a professor of Police Science at Florida State
University. Dr. Gary Kleck presents the most comprehensive study on
guns and violence in America ever assembled. His 512-page work,
POINT BLANK, isn't cheap at $59.95, but it is packed with explosive
facts to blow the Government's attack on our Second Amendment out of
the water.

Kleck compares apples to apples, whereas the [corporate] U.S.
Government and the [corporate] Establishment mass media use mixed
and incomplete data to deceive the public. The [corporate] major
mass media is flooding its print and electronic outlets with the
statistic:

  "If you have a gun in your home, you are three times more likely
   to be killed."

TRUTH: 1,200,000 Americans use firearms each year to thwart criminal
attempts on their persons and on their properties.

[corporate] MEDIA HYPE:
  "Japan has far fewer homicides per year than the United States
   because Japan has an absolute ban on handguns."

TRUTH: The people in Japan have a gun murder rate that is 2.3 times
higher than that of Japanese people who live in America amidst two
hundred million firearms.

JANET RENO RHETORIC:
   Guns are the problem. Get rid of the guns and violence will
   decline.

TRUTH: Evanston, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago) passed a ban on
handgun possession the same time that Kennesaw, Georgia (an Atlanta
suburb) passed a law requiring each household to have at least one
gun available. During that exact same period, Evanston experienced
increases in all three categories of violent crime involving guns.
Kennesaw recorded an 89 percent decrease in these same areas of
murder, armed robbery, and aggravated assault.
The Orlando, Florida Police trained 2,500 women in the use of
handguns, and realized an 88 percent decrease in rape. It is a
recorded fact that robbery and assault victims who used guns to
resist were less likely to be attacked or to suffer injuries than
those who used any other methods of self-defense, or than those who
did not resist at all.

REMEMBER THE A-B-Cs OF A NATION'S ENSLAVEMENT:
  (A) Register All Persons (Clinton's 332 billion dollar compulsory
      National "Healthcare" Security System),
  (B) Disarm the Population (the 1993 Crime Control Act, and the
      1993 Protection Against Terrorism Act),
  (C) Control the Nation's Currency (coming soon: funny money).
