The Nut Behind the But

Years of lobbying and stories of mass destruction, crime and never ending violence are propelling more and more Individuals to lobby for the destruction of all weapons – most being of course hand guns.

Throughout my many years in the military working with law enforcement and other institutions throughout the world – one thing is constant – it’s not the weapon that is dangerous but the stability of the mind behind it.

A weapon, no matter what it is or how it is made; is an inanimate object capable of inflicting harm, injury or at an extreme – death, is merely the tool and nothing can detract from this fact. The only way that a weapon such as a firearm can become dangerous is the machine operating it. That my friend’s is the “Nut behind the but.” In most cases the individual that uses the weapon has already by default of mass consciousness and mindset – decided its use. The same is said for the individual who uses the weapon for violence and destruction. We live in a culture where guns are the every-day norm – a part of our lives and whether we like it or not are part of our safety in some ways.

Conversely, we may consider our intuitive part of our nature to be the weapon, but a weapon that when used correctly that can keep us safe from harm. Perhaps it is time to recognize that our intuition can be likened to our very own hand gun. We can’t get rid of our intuition and contrary to popular belief, we all have it. Is it right therefore that we should rid ourselves of hand guns when it is not the instrument that carries out the crime?

How can a Law enforcement officer use this intuition when using a hand gun or a soldier for that matter? Consider this; Imagine that law enforcement officer on his or her normal duties has to investigate a building or area. Before they enter the building – they are confronted with a clairvoyant image in the mind’s eye of a perpetrator that is armed. Seeing this intuitive flash, they draw the side arm and on entering, are confronted with a masked man brandishing a live weapon with malice on his mind. The officer has by default utilized this skill all be it very conservatively and stayed alive. Imagine if the officer had ignored that feeling and walked into the building not knowing what to expect. There may be a high chance that he or she would have been shot in the line of duty. Now I know that many of you will be screaming that what I have just described is normal standard operating procedure for law enforcement. All I am attempting to do is give a very basic example of how this may be used. It can be as easy or as complicated as you like. It can be just a feeling that someone is lying or being able to tune into a perpetrator’s vibration – gaining a level of intelligence.

Let’s go back to the perpetrator. He already had malice on his mind and would have been consumed by negative feelings and energy around him. Those signals would be emanating from his aura. An individual that is sensitive enough to these subtle signals would be able to pick up on these feelings using natural intuitive ability and will have the opportunity to make the right or wrong decision. That is similar to the choice of using the weapon for good or not. In short “ The nut behind the But.”

Personally, I am not one of those lobbying type folk and as a former protection officer and soldier. I do see a necessity for weaponry and I can also see the validity in the fear created by the former. However, I also believe that our intuitive nature can be just as effective. Therefore the balance may be achieved in accepting both.
