Hornberger’s Blog: November 2003

by
Saturday, November 29, 2003 The federal government has shut down one of the top television networks in Iraq for broadcasting a tape by Saddam Hussein. Meanwhile, federal officials are having to reconsider their plan to “turn over” Iraq to the Iraqis because the top Shiite leader in Iraq has objected that the plan denies ordinary Iraqi citizens the democratic right to vote in a national election. In the meantime, after more than 6 months of what federal officials describe as occupational “stability” in Iraq, military officials continue to conduct warrantless raids on homes and businesses, conduct warrantless searches of men, women, and children, arrest people without warrants, incarcerate people indefinitely without trials, deny people due process of law, and summarily execute people who are caught violating gun-control edicts — all with the hope that the Iraqis will finally stop resisting the foreign occupation ...

by
If Jews in Nazi Germany had been free to own guns, would that have diminished the impact of the Holocaust? GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson candidate set off a political firestorm by proclaiming that it would have. Gun-rights critics went on the attack, saying that the right to bear arms would have had no effect on the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust, given the overwhelming might of the Nazi regime. Thus, if German Jews couldn’t stand against the might of their government, gun control advocates say, then what chance would Americans have in resisting a tyrannical regime that took control of the U.S. government, given its overwhelming military power? Americans might as well permit themselves to be disarmed, the argument goes, because there is nothing that they could do anyway if ever faced with a tyrannical regime in Washington. Moreover, gun-control advocates argue, the possibility that the U.S. government would ever be headed by a tyrannical regime is ...
