Stop all this talk about supporting the 2nd Amendment.
Uh...no.
The other day I heard a governor say how important the 2nd Amendment is.
It is, as anyone with a modicum of understanding of history understands.
Well, let me tell you something. If we were to be taken over by our own tyrannical government no law allowing the sale of semi-automatic weapons would stop them.
Bullshit. An armed citizenry is the last line of defense against tyranny, be it from internal or external sources.
See our government has weapons of mass destruction. They've got more than weapons, they've got control over airwaves, or any and all types of mass communication.
Logic disconnect. Just because government has weapons does not mean armed citizens are not a deterrent to tyranny.
Not too bright, so far...
That argument about the second Amendment is more than kind of dumb.
Then you ought to be able to state why with specificity, logic and reason. So far, fail.
And nobody is talking about taking away someone's right to own a handgun or a rifle for hunting anyway.
What part of 'shall not be infringed' don't you understand? Further, this statement is a lie. There is ample evidence of leftist Senators, mayors and other "leaders" proclaiming their intent to restrict the right to own handguns and rifles. So far, you're demonstrating that you're full of shit...but keep trying!
Lastly, the 2nd is NOT about hunting!
Why the NRA they have so much control over politicians - or why big banks and Wall Street does really illustrates why this country is in a stalemate over many fixable issues.
The NRA is comprised of people. People control politicians, which is the way it's supposed to work, not the other way around.
And if you're concerned about banks, talk to Dem Chuckie Schumer. Wall Street is in his state afterall.
Gun trade is an explicit condition mandated by our government in such a way that is completely under-reported on.
Oh really? Please point to the enumerated power in the Constitution that gives the federal government the right to "mandate" the gun trade. Good luck with that.
Whose the biggest seller of WMD - we are. We sell more than semiautomatic weapons too. We sell jets designed only for warfare, guided missiles, tanks, you name it and we do it all over the world.
When we talk about US pentagon military acquisitions we're really not just talking about military defense. We're also talking about the eventual sale of all of these WMD's on the open market.
And we are chiefly responsible.
You know this true. And the fact is none of it makes people anywhere any safer.
The real issues of tyranny and injustice can maybe start to be addressed when we do this
So now American companies should not be allowed to sell arms to those that demand those weapons? That's a hell of plan there comrade.
Rarely do we see such a piss poor attempt to justify more government control over the lives of American citizens.
Fail dude...MASSIVE fail.
