From time to time protesters take to the streets to remind everyone of there God given right to “keep and bare arms” and yesterday was NO exception to the rule…..as reported by CNN:
They’re angry at the government and are demonstrating in the Washington area against what they see as the trampling of the Constitution. Their specific fear: Americans’ right to bear arms under the Second Amendment will be taken away.”We’re in a war. The other side knows they are at war, because they started it,” said Larry Pratt, president of the Gun Owners of America. “They are coming for our freedom, for our money, for our kids, for our property. They are coming for everything because they are a bunch of socialists.”
There is that “S” word again! All the hyperbole is nothing but emotional hysteria. I try to shrug off all the lame socialist rhetoric as coming from the mouths of morons….but sometimes stuff has to be addressed……..
For one thing…Obama signed a bill that allows guns to be carried in National Parks and one of the protests was in a Virginia National Park…up until the signing of the bill guns were prohibited…plus these people are secured by the government to be able to tote their guns , you know the thing the Constitution says you can do…….so thanks to the guy that is a socialist these people were allowed to parade around with their nuts in a holster…….When has Obama even hinted at the possibility he would reach for more gun control? See! Stupid!
The Brady Group for gun control gives Obama and his admin an “F” on gun control…..do not hurt yourself, that means he gets a failing grade on gun control……See!….Stupid!
We keep hearing about “they” will take our freedoms….which ones would that be? Apparently the government is NOT taking their freedom to be an idiot away from them…..Just once I want one of these babbling morons to say what liberty or freedom I will lose…….(pause here for thought)….never mind they would give themselves a migraine try to come up with an answer……..emotional, hysterical horsesh*t is all they have…….but then again these are the people who watch Dog the bounty hunter, the UFC and wrestling….need I say more?
A good post and you’re right. Yet I do understand these people’s fears, silly as the specifics often are…
It IS generally a Liberal/Democrat/Socialist idea that we can legislate our way out of situations. However, it’s my firm belief that this is UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE – it’s just as much horesh*t as these people talk and rant about.
Legislation NEVER, EVER works on AMLOST all levels. It simply makes life more complicated, harder and much more expensive for ordinary people who have no wish to harm anyone.
I’m not a gun person, as I guess you aren’t either, but banning guns, knives and so much more in the UK has achieved NOTHING except perhaps in fact (in my opinion and that of a lot of others) to be directly responsible for a considerable worsening of the situation.
This is in part my fear if the UK Liberals got into a position of relative power – because their ideals are so much driven by the ideas of the bulk of their supporters – the more “woolly-headed” element of the middle class who also have this airy-fairy idea that more and more legislation will solve anything at all.
I am for banning assault rifles and such…….handguns I go both ways….hunting weapons I have NO problem with at all……
My problem is a group of people that have NO idea what it is they are protesting other than the use of obscure words…..I agree with you on the legislation but to hate something that has NO basis in reality is just plain STUPID!
