We don't need more civilization; all we need are more Wild West gunslingers

By Matea Gold December 21, 2012, 9:27 a.m.

WASHINGTON -- In an angry and defiant news conference, National Rifle Assn. Chief Executive Wayne LaPierre on Friday forcefully rejected calls to clamp down on guns in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., school massacre, arguing instead for a massive deployment of armed guards to every school. http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-pn-nra-newtown-20121221,0,4915261.story

VUFT’s Five -Point Philosophy

  • War only if our nation or its true allies are in grave danger
  • Strict adherence to Article I, Section 8 - “The Congress shall have power … To declare war ...”
  • A decision for war is a decision for immediate and meaningful national sacrifice which must include relief, wherever possible, of the grave burden on the troops and their families
  • Affirm the Powell Doctrine - troops must be totally prepared, must be sent in overwhelming numbers, and must know the truth of what they are fighting for, what constitutes success, and how they will exit
  • Perpetual, timely, quality care for those who have borne the direct burden - the troops and their families - inclusion of these costs in the initial cost of war as part of the continuing national sacrifice
