For those who have yet to sell their principles and their very souls for the offer of a free phone or the unattainable nirvana of government mandated peace and safety, these are most trying times. The modern patriot is confronted on all sides by the comfortable slave and the social elitist. The citizen is extolled to be reasonable and accept rational limits to his liberty for the common good and an empty promise of security.

The first step in the process of legitimate debate is to refuse the offer of “gun control.” Call a spade a spade and inquire from the elitist or useful idiot whether they favor civilian disarmament or not. Ask them if they believe their fellow citizens have the right to possess arms or whether the government has the authority to disarm them.

If you weaken and fall prey to the seductive talk of compromise you have already lost and very soon will fall in line with the rest of the “civilized” world. You will be forced to take your place in the ranks of the comfortable slaves who inhabit the majority of this planet.

More guns are currently owned by poor people than wealthy people. I don't know what your point is - are you saying,  People don't educate people , guns educate people?

Where'd you get an idea like that?

Regardless, it's a silly point to make.  The government offers false security and comfort to those who get rid of their guns.  Who do you think that appeals to, rich or poor people?

There are more poor/working poor people than wealthy people. The poor people are ALREADY "comfortable slaves"....with guns. 
I wonder if OP checks in his gun and removes the bullets when he boards a plane?
