But hey, they are pushing this for our safety, right? :-/ Guns are dangerous, people who want guns are dangerous. That is their message. Well, I agree with them, but not the way they think. In their world only law enforcement, government agents, and a few hand picked personal security people (for those more equal people who "need" it) would have guns. Yes, this would be dangerous, when we can no longer defend ourselves. It is precisely because of people like them that I will never surrender my ability to defend myself. (And people like those making the news in MO right now)
People need to wake up. There are dark forces, dark ideas behind many of the things going on. No, I don't expect Marx or Stalin, or those fun guys from mid twentieth century Germany to come back and take over. But I am not so naive as to think the ideas, ideals, and temptations that drove them have gone away.
