Yep, and how interesting that this need and necessity was going to be programmed through taxes into a man made famine and food-stamps or tax rebate dependency.

I believe a good half of people who do abortion might do it out of necessity and fear losing that “right”, but little do they realize if the economy was better and not in the clutches of government, they would not need it but would embrace life instead.

Earlier this month, in the context of asking a person why he needed a firearm, on his syndicated radio program Geraldo asked a caller: “How could you not trust your own government?”

Putting aside outrages like the Trail of Tears, Fast and Furious and the Bengzai coverup, I seem to recall Geraldo complaining about how the US has treated his native Puerto Rico. But the question is not asked honestly for the simple fact that history is full of governments that ran sufficiently amok as to become a material danger to their own citizens who died by the millions because they lacked the means to prevent it. It concerns me that members of the President’s inner circle have praised Mao, a man responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of his fellow citizens.

Last year in Missouri alone, 511,000 people bought deer hunting licenses and shot over 1/4 million deer. That is a substantial army if sufficiently motivated. There are far more deer hunters than government employees. As long as the relationship between public servants and the public they serve is correct, then we all can enjoy the blessings of liberty, which by the way was the core reason we formed the federal government in the first place.

Nobody can tell what future government might endanger my children or grandchildren. Even though we are all civilized, I cannot allow this precious right to keep and bear arms to be infringed to the extent that those who follow me are forbidden these tools should they need them.

100 million civilians were murdered by their own governments in the twentieth century while those governments were imposing socialism upon those people. There is no comparable mass murder attributable to any ideology, anywhere, anytime. There is also no reason yo believe the killing has stopped. The people most likely to perpetuate the killing are the same people who are telling you you don’t need guns. How stupid does one need to be to believe these murderous bastards?

I admit that I did not follow the link, but I am curious to know why the source of your post is listed as “Newsweek” while your link says “Daily Beast”.

In East European Jewish folklore, the city of Chelm (Pol., Chełm; Yid., Khelem) functions as an imaginary city of fools... Had to look it up.
