John Longenecker Is Good for The Country

By Chris Chumita

John Longenecker is the author of the wildly popular column Good For The Country and the book Safe Streets In The Nationwide Concealed Carry Of Handguns. He is also the owner of Contrast Media Press, a Libertarian and pro-gun publishing company. So far, Contrast Media Press has published two outstanding books. They are Longenecker’s Safe Streets In The Nationwide Concealed Carry Of Handguns. and Howard Nemerov’s 400 Years Of Gun Control….Why Isn’t It Working? Longenecker is quickly becoming a prominent figure in our fight to restore our liberties, so it only makes sense to learn a little more about him.

In 1977, John Longenecker attended one of the first paramedic schools. He served in emergency medical services for over 10 years and rose to the rank of Chief Paramedic and served on two important committees. It was during that time that he helped with rolling out the initial civilian CPR training. Unfortunately, his EMS career was cut short after he suffered some hearing loss.

Longenecker started writing professionally approximately 5 years ago. He tackled important liberty oriented issues, electronic surveillance, no-fault divorce, and other similar issues. It was during that time that he started to notice a disturbing trend which he refers to as the “Gun Control Formula.” The “Gun Control Formula” is very easy to understand. According to the “Gun Control Formula” the government identifies a problem and freezes a citizen out in their attempts to “fix” the problem. The end result is almost always the same. New laws are passed, citizens lose some of their rights, and the solution often creates more problems which starts the process all over again. This formula applies to all of our rights, not just our Second Amendment rights. Longenecker knows it's an age-old formula, but he sees a new twist to it just to mandate away America's freedoms.

Longenecker feels that we have reached an important pivot point where we can actually start to reclaim our lost liberties. Finally, millions on non-gun owners are now realizing what we have been warning them about, the loss of gun rights leads to the loss of other rights. Liberty advocates, gun owners, and non-gun owners must learn about the tremendous powers of citizen authority since our schools do not. The future of our country, our freedom, and gun rights depends on more citizens using the power of citizen authority. Longenecker’s book, Safe Streets In The Nationwide Concealed Carry Of Handguns addresses citizen authority and is a great place to learn more about it.

Longenecker also feels that current technology such as blogging a podcasting has given liberty and pro-gun advocates a platform that we never had before. It also gives us a great opportunity to bring the issues to non-gun owners so that we are not only preaching to the choir. The technology also gives gun-owners and liberty advocates who want to write a book the opportunity to platform before they publish. According to Longenecker, that is the secret to being a successful pro-gun or liberty author.

To help in that process, Longenecker has just released his new book, The Successful Liberty Nut Author 2009: The Liberty Purists Guide To Patriotic Platforming Before You Publish. The book is a great guide on the importance of platforming and how to begin platforming your material before you even write the first sentence of your book. The Successful Liberty Nut Author 2009 is a great book if you want some advice on how your voice to be one of the voices that help lead the fight to restore our Second Amendment rights.

Longenecker is worried about the future of our country. He is worried that terrorism, a financial crisis, or another incident will be used to further limit of freedoms including our Second Amendment rights. No matter what the future brings, I am confident that patriots like John Longenecker will be out there sounding the alarm and fighting for all of rights, including the Second Amendment. Hopefully more people will follow his lead and do the same. As John Longenecker says “It will be good for the country.”
