Waco was what, 50 people? And we are still talking about it how many years later?
In the South, there are hundreds of thousands who look to the 2nd amendment as protection against a tyrannical state. And no matter what libs like Maher think about it, the tyrannical minds in DC that scheme to control our lives look at the armed citizenry and know they always have to think twice about how hard they will move against a citizen.
Just think of Janet Napolitano and her buying of millions of rounds of ammo for “homeland security”. That alone is proof the 2nd amendment lives in the heads of the DC control freaks.
But if these prominent Leftists are so sure of that, why even bother trying to take away everyone’s guns? No, they are afraid, very afraid.
I’m sure there were Englishmen who laughed at the idea that a tiny group of farmers at Lexington and Concord could bring down the mightiest military in the world in 1776. The rest is history....or rather, His story.
Bill Maher is Ridiculous and Nonsensical...
he is not Quaint.
Just wait until a Republican becomes president again. We’ll get Leftists calling for violent revolution again.
Hate to bring this up but,
We already have an illegal, unconstitutional tryanny.
I don’t see anybody doing anything about it.
I have no television on purpose and a benefit is that I do not have to ever hear of Bill Maher or Chris Matthews, even by accident.
It’s discouraging to see these two wastes of skin so often publicized on my Free Republic.
(c) is your most important observation.
The great force equalizer.
The “Battle of Athens” is an excellent case study of American citizens using their 2nd amendment rights to overthrow tyranny.
I’ll bet it is never taught in schools these days.

The freedom loving people of this country could put a 100 Million man “army” in the field. The leftists would be lucky to field 100 thousand. Freedom loving Americans would make the Taliban look like 3 year old children playing with squirt guns and fizzy drinks.
Add to that the fact that Republican governors also have well equipped forces as well. In addition, I believe 100% of the Air Power would support the freedom loving Americans.
We win! So give up your leftist dreams of Tyranny!!!
Isnt that why OathKeepers dot com is working hard to remind those in the military and law enforcement, that they took and oath to protect the Constitution-—which is the people, not the Govt.....
Maher hopefully misses the point that there will be a steady flow of military to the side of the people.
As the late great Col. Jeff Cooper stated about the Feds with their face covered who attacked Waco and Ruby Ridge-—if they cant even show their face, they are terrorists, to be shot on sight.
Stupid man. They are not elites. They are communists.
Where did that come from. Out of his anus? If they had actually found those weapons it would have been splashed all over the news as justification, it was not. But then, I did not buy the lies told by BATF and company concerning Waco. So what does that make me?
The Civil War did not happen by individual action. If the US ever breaks up, it will be by State Action, not some Militia Group.
Is he saying,” nyaa nyaa you can’t stop us, even with your guns!” ?
What an idiot. I don’t want firearms to protect me from the government. I want them to help me protect my life, my home and my loved ones from roving bands of thugs in a SHTF scenario.
Yes Bill, the Davidians were out gunned and didn't have a chance.
The government called in the military to use a tank, tear-gas and flash-bangs to incinerate the compound, killing every man, woman & child that stood up to your beloved government.
Diane Feinstein’s Husband Rakes in the Cash from Government Projects
Posted on May 4, 2013 by Marilyn Assenheim Filed under Economics, Politics
Senator Dianne Feinstein’s husband, Richard Blum, created the investment firm, Blum Capital. Blum Capital is part owner of the construction firm, Perini-Zachary-Parsons. Dots connected so far? Perini-Zachary-Parsons has won the bid to build high speed rail track that will link Madera to Fresno, California. Once built, the Reason Foundation estimates that the railway will lose between $124 million to $373 million a year.
If you’ve never heard of Madera California and have barely heard of Fresno, you are not alone. But California’s mania in pursuing this fiscally suicidal venture is not what is spotlighted, here. As Mr. Rogers might have asked, Can you say ‘Conflict of interest’?” Or “graft”?
How did Perini-Zachary-Parsons manage to snag this prize? With the “lowest” bid, Blum’s company, miraculously, came up the victor. Their bid, $985,142,530, comes to $35 million per mile. At the moment, no one is asking the question of how it happened. The project is state funded. And, once again, Senator Feinstein’s dynasty makes out while the state and nation she represents tunnels ever deeper into the septic tank.
Feinstein has been tied to cronyism, using taxpayer funds, several times in the past. According to Breitbart.com, in a report from June, 2012, Feinstein used her position and the information she was privy in order to:
When innocents shot back at tyranny at Waco, it wasn’t tried again for 15 years. A few armed homeowners would have stopped the Boston marital law quick.
