| Evil_Twin (OP) User ID: 23761243 United States01/08/2013 12:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | During the two centuries that followed the founding of the United States, we have become the most prosperous and thereby most comfortable people on the planet. That comfort has turned to sloth and sluggishness. The populace has forgotten the hard fought lessons of their fathers and fallen into a state of illusion where the nature of man has somehow changed from the previous thousands of years. Quoting: Paul MerkelWe are expected to believe that unchecked governmental power is now preferable and beneficial to society. That the citizen no longer has the right to hold the government accountable and certainly no longer maintains the right to return that power to the citizen. |

| Tennessee Voodoo User ID: 8397139 United States01/08/2013 12:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.thetruthaboutguns.com] Quoting: Evil_Twin 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. Paul Markel © 2013 Booyaa!  |

| Resister User ID: 669410 United States01/08/2013 10:00 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Most excellent post! There was another thread here a week or so ago advising people to stop using the PC dishonest language control phrase "gun control" and instead realize what it really is. Gun rights infringement. Guns are inanimate objects. It is people who are controlled by laws not lumps of steel. So, "gun control" laws are not about controlling guns at all, they are about controlling people through gun rights infringement. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

Paul Markel © 2013 Don't be afraid to call it what it is, Infringement of a constitutional right through government overstepping its limitations. I agree that we should not get sucked into the emotional debate using their terminology and arguments. Its a god given right, and whether you believe in god or not, it is still a right. And that right will be defended at all cost. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1243271 United States01/08/2013 10:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gun control means to me that when the government wants to break down your door and haul you off because you are named as an enemy of the new world order state, that you will not have any legal representation whatsoever, because of the Patriot Act and because of their newly founded, National Defense Authorization Act, which gives them the right to say if you should live or die. And most of the time, because they bothered to arrest you in the first place, they will either ship you to a concentration camp or to a FEMA camp, or to an overseas prison and disappear you!! Or just put a bullet in your head and then disappear you!!

In terms of proportion of the population of ethnic Chicago is worth noting that 42.6% of the population are white people, 38% African American and 26% Latino. In summary, black resident of Chicago is 20-fold higher risk of death from the hand of a bandit than white citizen "Windy City."

I think there are some elites that don't care how many guns you have. Their attitude is give them all the drugs, guns, alcohol, porn they want - as long as it keeps them our little productive elves. |
