      (Editor’s note: This is Part 4 of Chuck Norris’ four-part series on reducing violent crime in the U.S.) In the first two columns, I highlighted ways we can absolutely reduce violent crime in the U.S.  But I’ve saved the best and most powerful solutions for last because they work from the inside out.In Part 1, I revealed how rational and rewarding it would be to post armed guards at our schools.In Part 2, I showed how reducing the number of firearms in the U.S. will not curb violent crime.

    Chuck Norris: Do Gun Bans Actually Curb Violent Crime?

     (Editor’s note: This is Part 2 of Chuck Norris’ three-part series on reducing violent crime in the U.S. Part 1 is available here.)  Who isn’t sickened by the moral decay and heinous acts of violence across our country? My heart and prayers continue to go out to victims everywhere. But do gun bans, like the one proposed last week by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., outlawing 120 specific firearms, actually curb violent crime?

    Chuck Norris: Israel: America's model for reducing violent crime

     Last week, I made an audio recording endorsing the re-election of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel’s general election on Jan. 22.I explained in the endorsement, “You might think I’m a tough guy in my films, but in a rough neighborhood like the Middle East, Israel has his own tough guy. His name is Bibi Netanyahu” (the prime minister’s nickname).

    Chuck Norris: Motivation to Prosper

     On Nov. 29, 1766, Benjamin Franklin wrote for the London Chronicle, “I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. – I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. In my youth I travelled much, and I observed in different countries, that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.”

    Chuck Norris: The most powerful weapons we possess

     George Washington warned us in his presidential Farewell Address about a time in America’s future where we might be tempted to discard the pillars of civility: “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them.”

    Chuck Norris: Resolve to Conquer or Die

     When President Obama was re-elected, the winds waned behind many patriots’ ships’ sails. My wife, Gena, and I felt that sock in the gut for our country and posterity, too. But instead of cowering in defeat, I believe we need to discard conventional (unsuccessful) strategies and advance in new directions.

    Chuck Norris: To Heck With Charity? Part 2

     Editor’s note: This is Part 2 of a two-part series titled, “To hell with charity.” Read Part 1 here.)  Imagine it’s Christmas Eve in your local church and the offering plate is passed to help a local orphanage build an addition because there’s “no room in the inn.” But just when you’re about to give generously to the cause, you all of a sudden recall that Washington, D.C., recently voted to reduce tax-deductions for charitable giving.

    Chuck Norris: To Heck with Charity?

     There are two weeks remaining for Washington to take action before the George W. Bush tax cuts expire and $1.2 trillion in spending cuts are triggered. And President Obama is in his normal duck-n-blame mode: “If Congress fails to act before the end of the year, middle class family’s taxes will skyrocket $2,000.”

    Chuck Norris: Obamacare jiu-jitsu

     The art of jiu-jitsu is to use an opponent’s weight and strength to your advantage. I believe we can further choke the life out of Obamacare by using this martial arts technique. Let me explain.

    Chuck Norris: Choke the life out of Obamacare

     Now that Obama has been re-elected and Democrats control the Senate, Republicans no longer have the chance to repeal Obamacare.But all is not lost. There’s still an opportunity for America to stop this disaster by choking the life out of the federal monstrosity. Obama’s signature legislative achievement is likely headed back to the Supreme Court.

     This holiday season, while we enjoy delicious food and visiting family and friends, let’s take a moment to give thanks for our many blessings.It’s easy to get lost in all the bad news today – whether it be unfavorable election results, financial troubles, a struggling economy, an overreaching federal government, crisis in the Middle East or personal struggles. Our growing list of problems often seems overwhelming and endless.

    Chuck Norris: Horrors of FEMA disaster relief

     “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.’”  – President Ronald Reagan Those wise and yet haunting words spoken by one of our nation’s greatest presidents couldn’t ring more true – especially today, as winter sets in on an estimated 130,000 of our fellow Americans who are still struggling without power. Many live without heat, hot water or inhabitable homes and question the government’s efforts to alleviate their condition.

    Chuck Norris: Honor for whom honor is due

     On the heels of a pivotal national election, I’d like to remind Americans that it is our troops’ service and sacrifice that safeguards our precious right to cast those ballots and savor the freedoms that we hold dear. They represent the best of America.Today, we honor all U.S. veterans and troops currently serving for their unwavering courage and dedication to keeping our nation strong and protecting the liberties we continue to enjoy. We also pay tribute to the wounded, missing, fallen and their families.

     With the troubling devastation of Hurricane Sandy on our nation’s doorstep – and so many people in need of food, shelter and emergency services after the storm – I encourage Americans to reach out to our neighbors and help them through this challenging time.

    Chuck Norris: Barack Obama: Spin master

     Spin: to apply a slant or particular emphasis to information as to persuade or deceive Obama is really pounding the pulpit these last few days before the election with the help of his speech writers. He sounds a lot like Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

    Chuck Norris: Obama's class warfare: Don't get fooled again

     Have you noticed how the Obama campaign has stepped up its class-warfare rhetoric as we draw closer to Election Day?Obama is constantly resorting to this tactic because he’s simply unable to defend his own record in office as 23 million Americans are out of work or underemployed and the economy remains in distress.Class warfare is all he has left.

    Chuck Norris: Who you calling 'crazy'?

     Chuck, I have a mental illness and am so tired of how society stereotypes those of us who do. Anything you can do to help remove the stigmas and talk about how prevalent mental illnesses are? – M. Williams, Oregon

    Chuck Norris on kids: Brains overpower brawn

     Chuck, sometimes I think my kid’s brain is Jell-O. It’s so frustrating at times just to try to get him to think. Any suggestions? – “Going Crazy in the Cranium” in Colorado Being the father to seven children, I empathize with your struggle. But the first thing we need to remember about our children’s brains is that their substance is the composite of genius, not Jell-O.

    Chuck Norris: Together we can make a difference on Election Day

     It’s time to take stock of where we stand as a nation. The election of 2012 offers us a stark contrast, between candidates who are looking to protect our Second Amendment rights and those who seek to restrict those same freedoms. Over the past month, I’ve been alerting you to some dangers on the horizon. As we consider the path we are about to embark upon, it’s good to recall what’s at stake.

    Chuck Norris: Chuck Norris makes 'happy meals' cry for mercy

     Chuck, with our children bombarded with fast foods and junk foods at their school and their friends’ houses, how can we as parents and guardians promote their good eating habits without spoon-feeding them every good food? – Roxy R., Arizona

    Chuck Norris: 'Fast and Furious' whitewash by Justice Dep't

     Sometimes, as the saying goes, the truth really is stranger than fiction. There may have been some wild plotlines on “Walker: Texas Ranger,” but nothing that compares to the scandal surrounding the operation known as “Fast & Furious” – the BATFE operation that resulted in the loss of a distinguished Border Patrol agent, Brian Terry.

    Chuck Norris: U.N. gun-control treaty: Bad for gun owners

     Last time I checked, Americans were responsible for making our own laws. We do not invite foreign nations to have a say in how we govern ourselves within our own borders. Yet if you follow what’s been going on with the United Nations this year, you would know the U.S. came perilously close to having other countries dictate our gun laws. And the fight isn’t over yet.

    Chuck Norris: Michelle O wrong even about obesity

     The C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health reported: “For the first time, not enough exercise was rated by most adults at the top of the list (39 percent) (of childhood health problems). That was followed closely by childhood obesity (38 percent) and smoking and tobacco use (34 percent).”

    Chuck Norris: Election 2012: Supreme Court hangs in the balance

     I believe freedom is worth fighting for. I am committed to protecting the freedoms our forefathers guaranteed to us in our Constitution. There are many politicians who disagree with me, although they are loathe to admit it, but their true colors show in voting records on critical legislation. And part of what makes America great is that every two years, we too cast our votes, rendering judgment on whether lawmakers have fulfilled their promises. And every four years, as in 2012, our opportunity extends to the highest office in the land.
