Ted Nugent Speaks On Gun Laws

[Malcolm]

Ted Nugent wrote this in response to today's Supreme Court ruling that individual Americans have the right to own guns for personal use, striking down a strict gun control law in Washington, DC. Ted was recently re-elected for his fifth term on the Board of Directors of the NRA (The National Rifle Association of America).

"'A 'SUPREME' COURT? I CAN DO BETTER' by Ted Nugent

"It is glaringly obvious that a critical lesson in history 101 is due in America, for it appears that not only does a lunatic fringe of anti-freedom Americans dismiss our founding fathers' clear declaration of independence and succinct enumeration of our God-given individual rights, but some Americans have the arrogance and audacity to question whether the right to self-defense is indeed one of these individual rights. Dear God in heaven, who could be this soulless? How about 4 out of the 9 so called 'Supreme' justices of the land. God help us all.

"Who could be so asinine as to believe that a free man has no such right to keep and bear arms for self-defense? What kind of low-life scoundrel would know that courageous heroes of the U.S. Military would volunteer over and over again to sacrifice and die for such self-evident truths, then turn around and spit on their graves by discounting the very freedoms that these brave men and women have died to protect?

"Will these supreme legal scholars also affirm an individual right to choose the religion of our individual choice? Do they authorize our individual freedom of speech? Can you imagine? Them is fighting words my friends, and the line drawn in the sand has never been more outrageous.

"Recent USA Today and Gallup polls showed a whopping 73% of good Americans know damn well that we are all created equal, and that we each have an individual right to protect our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. What kind of jackass doesn't know this? Allow the guitar player to translate for the soul-dead among us.

"Keep-this means the gun is mine and you can't have it. This does not mean I will register it with a government agency. The government works for 'we the people,' not the other way around, regardless of what Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, Pol Pot, Saddam Hussein or Barack Hussein Obama or 4 supreme justices may try to tell you.

"Bear-this means I've got it right here, on me, either in my grasp or damn near. This does not mean locked away in a safe, trigger-locked or stored at the local sporting club.

"Shall not be infringed-this of course is another way of saying Don't tread on me, for we will not be your willing crime victims, subjects, servants or slaves, so don't even think about it.

"When the evil King's gangsters came to collect unfair taxes from Americans, we tossed their tea into the drink. When they came to disarm us into helplessness against their old world tyrannical ways, we met them at Concord Bridge and shot them dead till they quit treading on us. Any questions children? I didn't think so.

"Corrupt men cannot be trusted, hence the right of 'the people' to choose the individual church of our choice, to speak our individual ideas and beliefs, to have individual freedom from unwarranted searches and seizures, and ultimately, to exercise our individual right to keep and bear arms so that evildoers cannot do unto us that which we would not do unto them. Get it? I would love to meet the human being who would argue these points with us. We would be looking at a fascist, and of course fascists, by all historical and empirical evidence, must be eliminated.

"If you value the American Way, if you believe in the words and spirit of the US Constitution and our sacred Bill of Rights, if you know in your heart that you have the right, the duty, the spiritual obligation to protect yourself and your loved ones from evil in all of its forms, then you had best contact each and every one of your elected officials right away and let them know that you know exactly what the Second Amendment says and stands for. Remind them about the 'shall not be infringed' clause.

"It will not be the fault of the rotten anti-Americans out there who don't believe in individual rights that rape and pillage our Constitution, it will be the fault of those who know better but failed to speak up. Now is the time to fortify America, and we better inform the Supreme Court just who truly is the 'Supreme' Court of America-We the people. Individual people with individual, God-given rights. The real America. Live free or die."

Free For All is a good album, so is his first one.

He may be right about gun laws, but he's a hypocrite about pretty much everything else. It's easy to be a blowhard patriot when you're wealthy and won't ever have to makes personal sacrifices.

The president certainly forgot .

[Atillla]

I don't take sides in left or right, and think they are both the same in many ways.

But what I don't understand about the right wing is this...they many times talk about individual rights and freedoms which need to be defended, including having guns (which I agree with..I have 2 guns while it is even forbidden in my country, jail sentence of 4 years if I get caught)...and the right wing also talks how government must be smaller and not have much power over the people (again I agree).

...but then they go support this government, the Patriot Act and more communist pieces of paper like that which are there to take away your rights, curb your freedoms, give more power to the biggest money-grabbing government ever in the history of the USA....isn't that what the left wing would support?

What's going on?

He's gung ho about war and painting anti-war people as not supporting the troops and all that but he dodged the draft. That's the kind of thing I mean. I'm sure he has the usual sad tales of living out of cardboard boxes before making it as a rockstar.

I'm glad someone said it. The shit(pun intended) that asshole did to avoid service in Vietnam, and then turn into some kind warmongering freak ...

But, he did have some kickass music.

[COMAMOTIVE]

Call him what you will......on this particular issue - the man is right

[fuckin crazy]

I stand firm with the Constitution, but I don't buy into his child like arguments.

That's fair enough....He's a little dramatic for my tastes too

He's right in the sense that he's preaching to the converted who keep him in the limelight and get him opinion piece work
and talk radio appearances now that he has no music career left to speak of. If he was really concerned about the constitution, freedom, privacy etc he'd be speaking out about stuff like FISA and telecom immunity. But he won't because he's a draft dodging pedophile chickenhawk pussy.

He played some good stuff on the TV show with BAZ.

Look, I think you should have the right to have a gun.  But I too think there are places which guns should not be allowed.  Not because I think Ted will shoot anyone, but someone could take the gun from Ted and shoot someone.  Bad people will get guns no matter what.  Imagine if during the superbowl everyone had a gun and one person fired a shot.  85,000 would be dead by the time its over.

Nugent wielded two machine guns while raging, ?Obama, he?s a piece of shit. I told him to suck on my machine gun. Hey Hillary,? he continued. ?You might want to ride one of these into the sunset, you worthless bitch.?

He's a good guitar player and he wrote some great songs, I won't deny that and that show was pretty cool. But why did he talk like he swallowed a whistle? Spent all his money on guns instead of going to the dentist I expect.
