1. I'm now a columnist on Townhall.com.
They have a stellar cast including Ann Coulter, Thomas Sowell, Hugh
Hewitt, Dennis Prager, Michelle Malkin, more.
My first column
dealt with the (now done) Supreme Court decision on gay marriage. I
took an approach no one had taken, which the High
Court missed.
It's short and sweet, makes you wonder why no one
else has thought of it already. Would very much enjoy hearing what you
think. (My Arizona friends and Townhall readers have seen
this.)
My concern was that the Court's decision would plunge us
deeper into the exact mess that has already caused grave harm to the
nation.
And
the problem isn't just that the left uses psychos as motivation. Or
that the bills they propose won't solve the actual problems that
occurred.
The bills they talk about in the "news" aren't the
bills they actually introduce. They flat out lie -- and here's the
white light of day.
Leave a comment, I think that helps
ratings. I couldn't get too funny, the irony and my direct-address
approach to my gun-controller friends soaked up too much oxygen. I
think I left them on a good note. Maybe I'll start a campaign
there.
Both of these columns
are pasted below for your ease.
Plus a special

ALERT:
NEW Plain-English Gun Owner
Guides Now Available for:
by Alan Korwin The Uninvited Ombudsman
(GunLaws.com) June 23, 2014
Solving the
marriage equation is easy -- it resolves itself when you simply use the
proper term: holy matrimony.
All indications suggest
the U.S. Supreme Court is likely to miss this connection in its decision
due any day now. (They did.)
Marriage has always essentially been
a function of "the church" (figuratively speaking).
It is not a
function of the state -- and in fact the state is specifically
precluded from any activity whatsoever here -- by the First
Amendment:
"Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of religion,
or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof;"
Seen from this
vantage point, the correct and inalienable vantage point, it is only our
government's insertion into matters where it has no legitimate delegated
authority that has created any problems with which America now
wrestles.
It is important here to understand the word
government itself in a way that may not be familiar to
you.
Government is not this "thing" that exists. Government is
like soylent green: government is people. When you see the word government,
in this case at least, read, "People working in Washington."
This
clears away much of the foggy bottom. Government is not doing things, or
usurping power, or acting beyond its delegated powers. People working in
Washington are doing things, or usurping power, or acting beyond their
delegated powers. Government must be stopped, controlled, brought back in
line. Wrong. People working in Washington must be stopped, controlled,
brought back in line. But I digress.
If you can find a chapel that
will marry you to a rock, many living things at once, whatever your heart
desires without harming others, government (people working in Washington)
has no legitimate sanctioned power in the matter, and it is forbidden for
it (them) from getting involved. If you think some sort of government stamp
is what makes marriage legitimate, government has succeeded in brainwashing
you.
The many plain-English definitions of the word
marriage, q.v., are not at issue (the marriage of plasterboard to
studs to make a drywall, for example). The people in Washington have no
legitimate authority over the word, everyone knows that.
Matters
of inheritance, medical care, joint property, custody of children, real
estate, royalties, social security, pensions -- these are contractual
matters between consenting parties and can be handled very nicely by
courts, which is where they properly belong. Courts can be properly run by
governments of course, from Washington or otherwise, and make competent
decisions.
Taxing people unequally based on their living
arrangements or offspring, which is where we find ourselves today, is a
grotesque violation of the First Amendment ban and always has been, which
leads us to the most difficult point.
Extricating ourselves from
the entire government-usurped married-life problem is huge. People working
in Washington have insinuated their way into our lives in such intricate
and intractable ways that untangling the mess could take decades. We didn't
get here overnight, and we won't get out overnight either. Luckily, we
needn't eat this entire elephant at once.
Regarding the more
easily addressed who-can-commit-their-lives-in-whatever-way-they-choose
issue, just find a chapel that can conduct a wedding ceremony as you like
it, and wash the government right out of your hair. It has no business
being there. Problem solved. In good theory of governance at
least.
The Supreme Court's impending decision (whether the several
states are required to recognize gay marriage licenses of other states, or
issue their own), is poised to totally overlook the fact that the First
Amendment precludes it from being in the field at all. Marriage is a
religious issue, not a secular one. People are bound to each other before
their God. What about the godless? Then it's just a contract, which is fine
in a free state as long as no one is harmed, and government's proper role
is merely tangential. Contracts are enforceable.
We are thus
reminded that this "high court" has repeatedly turned the Constitution
upside down, just not hard enough yet to send the rabble into the streets
with torches and pitchforks. A whole lot of pitchforks.
Government
won't take the holy-matrimony truth lying down of course, they'll simply
ignore it, like all other inconvenient truths. But it's getting close to
time to stand up to them. Holy matrimony and the ban on interfering with
religion demand it.
Conservatives and liberals alike who demand
that government coerce people to see religion their way miss the point
altogether -- that is not a role assigned to government. Fight for that and
we get what no one wants, which is at the heart of many of the nation's
ills, usurpation of power.

Church
Psychopaths As Law Givers
Should
Emanuel Church Methodists Generate Gun Laws?
by
Alan Korwin The Uninvited Ombudsman (GunLaws.com) July 5,
2015
My anti-gun-rights friends -- you don't seem
to understand that crimes and atrocities committed by madmen are not valid
grounds for infringing on the public's right to arms -- a
fundamental freedom. This is why you meet the constant resistance
that befuddles and frustrates you.
You seem to believe just the
opposite. You think the murderous actions of psychopaths should motivate
legislation. Proper reflection, while not under duress, is how you
go about rationally solving real problems.
Here's what matters -- outbursts, not round
bursts.
Why are people suddenly acting out in homicidal
frenzy? They never used to. That's the question. Is it because
editors here might own a gun... or many? Of course not. Is it because all
of us do? Preposterous. Is it thanks to owning that property without a
massive government list of us all? Absurd. None of the older outbursts the
media harps on -- every single time a new one erupts -- is related in any
way to the public's arms. Blaming us for that is immoral, infuriating and
just plain wrong.
You compound the difficulty with a logic error,
desperati appelare, appeal to desperation, that goes by many names,
commonly, "we have to do something." We must do the right thing, not
something.
This is why you meet such adamant resistance from the
majority of the public -- not some mysterious "pow'ful gun lobby" as you
seem to think. There is nothing common sense about the numerous proposals
your leaders promote to you, which you then adopt as your own. You will
accomplish more when you understand that.
We would like to
accomplish more with you. Please don't hate me for saying this: anti-gun
bigotry unfortunately clouds your thinking, that's all. Gun owners want
solutions with the same fervor you do. Atrocities are atrocious and harm
everyone. Yes, the frequency is appalling, but why now? The Second
Amendment has always been here. Don't get me started on where cultural
sewage and morality trashing originates.
Proposals that hamper gun
owners and the general public, instead of addressing crime and the root
causes for homicidal outbursts makes gun-controller advocates like you look
like fools, or worse, bigots, and increase the resistance you face. You
don't see this, and are constantly frustrated. My heart goes out to you.
When you increase your efforts in desperate attempts to get anything at all
done you appear more deceitful and resistance to you redoubles. That's a
bad thing -- you hurt us all.
Your Leaders
Are Lying To You
It might be one thing if your leaders
actually proposed the bills they promote to you and on TV. The truth is,
the actual bills are so far from what they tell you it's despicable. You
would run them out of office if you knew the level of deceit they foist on
the public.
1. John McCain's bill to close the so-called
gun-show loophole for example, would have closed down gun shows altogether.
I read these bills, that's what it proposed. Nobody should stand for a U.S.
senator obliterating the right to peaceably assemble. Promoting it under
false pretenses just makes his side (your side) look bad. When I asked him
about this in public, he gave the distinct impression he didn't know what
was in his own bill.
Someone likely drafted the mind-numbing
legalese for him (we know our "representatives" don't read the bills,
should we assume they write them?), and sent him on his way with talking
points about common-sense background loopholes. Confronted with the fact
that no one could run a gun show if his bill passed, he hemmed, hawed and
changed the subject. Of course the bill died. Hard. Subsequent
congressional laments were crocodile tears and ignorance. It's plainly
analyzed here. https://www.gunlaws.com/GunShows/index.htm
2.
Dianne Feinstein's so-called assault-weapon ban, just a common-sense
bill to save children, turned out to be a worse subterfuge, if that's even
possible. In a roundabout way, spread over a dozen pages, it defined
assault weapons as firearms with grips. I kid you not. There's a bit more
to it, but not much, I don't want to bore you with details. Read it if you
care. https://www.gunlaws.com/FeinsteinGunBanBillAnalysis.htm
Well,
I have to, a little. The deceit in this bill is legendary, real evil
craftsmanship. People focused on and argued over a nearly 100-page list of
banned guns. On page 2 however, semi-auto firearms with a pistol grip were
banned just by definition. Then on page 13, the law says pistol grip
includes anything "that can function as a grip." Do you get it? The long
list of guns barely matters! Virtually all semi-autos are banned. All
guns have grips! I'm not making this up. What can you expect when
psychopaths are the reason for drafting? Her bill had some glaring
omissions too, like criminals, or criminal activity.
3.
Manchin-Toomey, more of the same. A full-blown federal
gun-registration scheme -- implement a list of every innocent American gun
owner in the name of crime control -- but sell it as simple common-sense
background loopholes. Sorry, but I read these things, and they repeat
themselves. The Fifth Amendment, by the way, prohibits listing armed
criminals (who you could just arrest if known). https://www.gunlaws.com/Page9Folder100up/PageNine-122.htm
This
is why you meet all the indignant furor and nothing gets done. This is why,
from the man currently in the White House to the woman who wants that seat
and those who support their anti-rights position, you're looked down upon.
This is why, when you're literally dancing in the blood of helpless
innocent victims, cut down in their prime, you are scorned.
From
that insensitive immoral place you come after me and my fellow decent
upstanding Americans, with a self-righteous, but more importantly dangerous
intention of disarming everyone who didn't do anything. You don't need gun
control, you need help.
To my aggressively anti-gun-rights
friends, you might consider seeking treatment for the rampant condition the
medical community doesn't want to recognize,
<https://www.gunlaws.com/GunPhobia.htm> hoplophobia, morbid
fear of guns. Your reactions, just based on evidence, do smack of
irrationality. Will you keep trying the same old same old, or start
listening? People who own guns have great ideas for improving things --
starting with education. "Take teachers to the range." Simple common
sense.
Your leaders
perpetually lie to you:
"The Brady bill will make the streets of America so safe that
our nation's police will not even need to carry guns
anymore."
William Jefferson Clinton, on TV, while
signing the Brady bill in 1993, quoted in Sheriff Richard Mack's book,
The Magic of Gun
Control.
--------
Afternote:
The Brady bill, promoted as a handgun law, had a non-promoted clause
that now controls all rifles and shotguns, enacted by deception. It was
promoted as a five-day waiting-period, remember? But it has no such
thing, another deception, emblematic of how gun controllers operate.
Waiting periods, promoted as the holy grail of the movement a few
short years ago have been all but abandoned -- when it became obvious
that psychos and killers who get guns after a nice soothing cooling-off
period can't exactly be trusted for the next thirty years. We'll barely
need police after this one passes -- there's the gun-control movement in a
nut.

Model Laws:
Tax breaks for gun safes.
I'm not
generally in favor of using tax policy to manipulate social behavior. I'd
be willing to make an exception though, to reach a firearms goal that might
actually be bi-partisan (or just to make a point and suggest using a tactic
constantly used against me): tax-free gun safes!
Because of all
the arguments the anti-rights gun controllers raise about gun safety, let
the government respond by eliminating gun safes from any tax requirement,
to encourage their purchase and use.
We don't want bad, mandatory,
dangerous, poorly thought out lock-up-your safety edicts, just a
market-based incentive, to get more gun safes into more homes, where they
could do some good.
ACTION ITEM: At
your next meeting where politicians or candidates are present just
ask:
"As a candidate

safes, to encourage people to buy and use
them?"

Gannett's
#2 newspaper ran my letter (!) chastising them for scolding the wonderful
art exhibit, saying it shouldn't have been done, and then pounding their
chest as a defender of free speech. But that's nothing -- the lunacy of
other letter writers on the subject was stupefying, pasted together neatly,
drop me a note I'll send them to you: Alan.
===
It's not "the
government"
Every time you see the word
government or federal government, in your mind substitute
"the people working in the capital." Because government isn't a thing, it
is people. It is the people working in the capital. We did not give
powers to government in the Constitution, we gave powers to the people
working in the capital. State or D.C.
These people took these
powers we gave, and abused them, acting as this camouflaged thing called
government. It's not government. It's people working in the capital.
Elected people, appointed people, hired people. Government is like Soylent
Green -- it's people.
The entire complexion of the debate -- and
your understanding -- changes, when you stop talking and thinking about
so-called "government," and start talking and thinking about the people
working in the capital, to whom we delegated power. They are the problem.
Not some amorphous, faceless, indeterminate so-called three-syllable g
word.
I've used the word government throughout this Page Nine
report, so you can make the change in your mind and see how it works. Watch
the news and read the papers and make the mental switch.
Whoa.

This may seem
counter-intuitive, but it is critically important.
Way too
many gun owners are anxiously seeking a government fix to their
infringed right to carry, by hoping for a bill to "allow" them to
carry.
Some misguided politicians are trying to craft a bill
that would force states and other officials to "allow" gun owners to
exercise their rights.
This is so wrong it is disastrous. The
correct approach is to threaten to arrest, prosecute or sue any
officials who deny a person's civil and human right to keep and bear
arms. Just like gays and lefties do when their rights are
limited.
Giving power to government to grant you the
"right" to carry is just wrong. The infringements on your
rights must be lifted. That's what's needed to make us whole
again.

like to put some model gun legislation in front of them. Knowing our
present situation, as you doubtlessly must, what laws would you like to see
enacted here? If you'll lay out the steps for me I will help my friends
codify them into black letter law. Thank you for your tremendous work. If I
can ever be of service to you, please don't hesitate to ask. Warmest
regards, George O.
[Thanks for the kind words! Better to pick the
one or two most likely, and press hard. Check with your local grass roots
group first. Coordinate with them before making waves. Adapt to their
plans, and they to yours. Assemble a team, don't be a lone operator. My
favorite model laws are here: https://www.gunlaws.com/ModelLegislation.htm

145 Thank you for putting into words what so many of us are
thinking. In our minds, "fair" means giving the job to the one most
qualified, who trained the hardest to get there. Life is a
competition where hard work is rewarded. In their minds, "fair" means
hiring one black for every white, one female for every male, one gay for
each straight. It makes me wonder if they even know what one is expected to
do at work. Like, you know, work. Jon

Really appreciate all you do. Don't ever stop!! -Donald G. S. [That's
encouraging Donald, thanks... but don't I ever get to at least take a
break? Alan.]

Dear Uninvited Ombudsman, Is
there some reason you like to type "Muslim" in lower case? And is there
some reason you like to type "quran" in lower case? Finally, is there some
reason you like to type "islamic" in lower case? Perhaps you are attempting
to make a political point, such as when some 70's radicals typed "Amerika."
But if that's not the case, these words are proper nouns -- like
"Methodist," "Bible" and "Christian" -- and used as such in both the
mainstream media and your lamestream media. Sincerely, Jim
V.
[Dear Jim, It warms my heart to see you've noticed some of my
stylistic mechanisms. I use AP style, and have a house style guide as well,
which I endeavor to apply consistently, both of which are at the heart of
good writing. Proper nouns, when they refer to "radical, misogynistic,
anti-Semitic, islamic savages" as one of my correspondents referred to
them, take lowest case. Again, thanks for noticing.
Alan.]
