| About John. |
| John Longenecker was one of the earliest Paramedics in Los Angeles EMS. He saw criminal shootings, and asked where the self-defense shootings were. He also saw where they are not, and came to appreciate the role of the armed citizen in the 21st Century. |
| The health of the Second Amendment is the primary indicator of the overall health of the nation. "The health of the nation is reflected in the health of the second amendment when public servants actively support your personal independence from them as our servants. Official affirmation of the second amendment is the beginning of this respect for you as the sovereign and them as our servants in the totality of all our other rights." Today, John is an author, a father of three, a nationally known columnist, and talkradio guest on the role of the armed citizen in America. He is author of the online article series brand, Safer Streets. |

| The health of the second amendment is the primary indicator of the overall health of the nation. It is not a matter of violence, but of credibility and sovereign authority. How this independent authority of the sovereign is respected by the servants divulges everything the electorate needs to know in whether to trust the servants any further with anything. |

| I finished re-reading a discussion over at FreeLibertyWriters.com on the positive financial impact of defensive gun use. There is a lot of discussion on the positive financial impact of defensive gun use. There is a lot of discussion on the economics of repealing gun control.
Often, the cost of violence is embellished with considerable error and an extra helping of spitefulness, while the benefits of dgu’s in resisting violence are more richly multi-dimensional and encyclopedic. The thing I have always liked about articles on defensive gun use is their relevance to the home and family instead of expressing ‘violence’ as a never-ending abstract. Never any real benefits, just an emotional abstract. Cardinal among these commentaries on repealing gun control is common decency. You won’t find decency on the left as long as gun control exists. Gun control interferes with the morality of self-defense on so many levels, including economics. Let’s look at an analogy on the topic. More . . . |

| If you're talking to people about liberty in 2012, be sure to include John's CPR Corollary in your message. |
| The CPR Corollary states comparison of armed citizens to CPR-trained for troubled times ahead. Read the Press Release on The CPR Corollary here. |
| Public servants like to mock that armed citizens seem to have a problem with authority. The servants have the problem with authority: Ours. Servants don't have as much authority as they think they have. Citizens have all the authority, and we hand them some of it to do their jobs. But American citizens have supreme authority under our system, the servants being only second in charge. Remember this in November. |
