Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every
kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body
of the people are armed...."- Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal
Constitution, 1787

of 2nd Amendment!

On October 16, 1991, Hennard drove his 1987 Ford Ranger pickup truck through the front window of a Luby's Cafeteria
at 1705 East Central Texas Expressway in Killeen, yelled "This is what Bell County has done to me!", then opened
fire on the restaurant's patrons and staff with a Glock 17 pistol and later a Ruger P89. About 80 people were in
the restaurant at the time. He stalked, shot, and killed 23 people and wounded another 20 before committing
suicide. During the shooting, he approached Suzanna Gratia Hupp and her parents. Hupp had actually brought a
handgun to the Luby's Cafeteria that day, but had left it in her vehicle due to the laws in force at the time,
forbidding citizens from carrying firearms. According to her later testimony in favor of Missouri's HB-1720 bill[1]
and in general, after she realized that her firearm was not in her purse, but "a hundred feet away in [her] car",
her father charged at Hennard in an attempt to subdue him, only to be gunned down; a short time later, her mother
was also shot and killed. (Hupp later expressed regret for abiding by the law in question by leaving her firearm in
her car, rather than keeping it on her person. One patron, Tommy Vaughn, threw himself through a plate-glass window
to allow others to escape. Hennard allowed a mother and her four-year-old child to leave. He reloaded several times
and still had ammunition remaining when he committed suicide by shooting himself in the head after being cornered
and wounded by police.
Reacting to the massacre, in 1995 the Texas Legislature passed a shall-issue gun law allowing Texas citizens with
the required permit to carry concealed weapons. The law had been campaigned for by Suzanna Hupp, who was present at
the Luby's massacre and both of whose parents were shot and killed. Hupp testified across the country in support of
concealed-handgun laws, and was elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 1996. The law was signed by
then-Governor George W. Bush and became part of a broad movement to allow U.S. citizens to easily obtain permits to
carry concealed weapons.
I made the most stupid decision of my life when I decided, several months before the Luby's
shooting, to stop carrying a revolver in my purse in the event that I would be caught and lose my chiropractor's
license. That decision left me unarmed at the time when I most needed a gun. I'm not mad at the guy that killed 23
people that day. How can I be mad at a rabid dog? I don't blame guns. I blame politicians that legislated away my
right to carry a gun to protect myself and my family. http://www.suzannahupp.com/
Milwaukee County law enforcer urged his citizens to arm
themselves

A Milwaukee County Sheriff has warned that a second
American Revolution may be sparked if unconstitutional gun laws are enforced by police and sheriff’s department
officials.
In a message posted on the Sheriff’s website, Clarke wrote “I need you in the game, but are you ready? With
officers laid-off and furloughed, simply calling 9-1-1 and waiting is no longer your best option. You can beg for
mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back; but are you prepared?”
“Consider taking a certified safety course in handling a firearm so you can defend yourself until we get there.
You have a duty to protect yourself and your family. We’re partners now. Can I count on you?” the message
urged.
Speaking on the Alex Jones Show yesterday, the Sheriff hit home his opinions on the gun control proposals that
are being pushed via presidential executive orders.
“First of all, to me that would be an act of tyranny. So the people in Milwaukee County do not have to worry
about me enforcing some sort of order that goes out and collects everybody’s handgun, or rifles, or any kind of
firearm and makes them turn them in.” Clarke said.
“The reason is I don’t want to get shot, because I believe that if somebody tried to enforce something of that
magnitude, you would see the second coming of an American Revolution, the likes of which would make the first
revolution pale by comparison.” the Sheriff urged.
Sheriff Says We're To See 2nd American
Revolution
Alex welcomes Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke who recently urged the citizens he serves to
consider learning firearm safety because of "a duty to protect yourself and your family." http://county.milwaukee.gov/Officeoft...
Like Alex Jones, Sheriff Clarke also recently appeared on
CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight, in an interview that was clearly set up by Morgan in a failed attempt to
demonize lawful gun owners and push the idea of strict gun control. During the broadcast Morgan said that Clarke’s
plea regarding citizens arming themselves would “turn Milwaukee into the Wild Wild West”.
“This has nothing to do with violence reduction because the type of violence that we’re talking about, that I
see on the streets in the Milwaukee area on a daily basis is not even committed using the weapons that the left is
trying to ban.” Clarke told Jones’ listeners.
“They are not using assault rifles, they are not using high capacity magazines, they are not buying their ammo
over the internet. The criminals couldn’t care less about a background check, so that tells me that this is
ingenuous.” he added.
“If they were serious about violence reduction, they would get behind me… and join me arm in arm in calling for
longer periods of incarceration for repeat career criminals who have demonstrated over and over again that they are
going to get a hand gun, that they are going to get a firearm and perpetrate violence.” Clarke noted.
The Sheriff added that a recent a Sikh temple shooting in his County a few months ago was perpetrated by an
individual who passed a firearms background check.
“My understanding is the creep in Aurora Colorado who shot
up the theatre, also passed a background check.” Clarke said. “This isn’t about background checks, of which the
overwhelming majority of gun transfers go on anyway.”
“This is about attacking the Second Amendment, it’s about going after the wrong crowd.” The Sheriff posited.
Asked why he believed such strict measures were being pushed by the Obama administration at this time, the
Sheriff pointed toward a general push for increased governmental control over society.
“Government control cannot go on as long as people have some sort of ability to say ‘hey wait just a doggone
minute’.” The Sheriff told listeners. “That’s what the government fears, they don’t really fear the criminals, they
support the criminals. What they fear is a law abiding person.” he added.
“Read the Declaration of Independence, it’s right there where a law abiding people say ‘enough is enough, you
are exerting too much influence in our lives, this is tyrannical and we’re going to stop it,’ that’s what they are
worried about.” he concluded.

Despite launching a gun

him armed Secret Service protection for life.
