Samuel Adams stated it was the duty not right of every American to own firearms. Will you ever read this in our sanitized history books? Probably not because Leftists are dumbing down our history to reflect their agenda to impose Socialism on us. I lived in Switzerland in the late 70s and it was normal to see teenagers riding their mopeds to target practice with their assult rifle on their back. The entire nation is armed to the teeth. Yet gun crime is unheard of.
A Free Nation is a Nation of armed citizens. An unarmed Nation is a nation of subjects or slaves who are at the mercy of Tyrannts. Our Founding Fathers knew this reality.
I refuse to disarm. You can have my guns when you pry my cold dead fingers from the trigger. And I have taught my Sons to shoot when they were 6 or younger. My Uncle taught me to shoot. He did his twenty in the USMC in Korea and VietNam. Then spent 15 years in the DEA.
You have a duty as an American to own a gun. It is a Natural Law any other is a denial of your Natural rights as a human being.
It may be a Natural right to defend's one life and home, but some people are just too chicken**** to even think about. I can't tell you how many times I've had conversations with other women about this. Many are ignorant and afraid on the matters of self-defense.
When my husband first brought home a shot gun some 6 years ago, I was given admonishments by several women. "What if your child finds the gun and shoots herself?"
I would look at them incredulously, as my daughter was one and a half at the time. Did they seriously think a toddler would be able to lift a 10 lb shotgun, double pump the barrel, reach over to pull the trigger & shoot herself?
I remember asking one girl what she'd do if she had access to a gun if her home was broken into (especially if she had a child) and an armed intruder broke in. She thought on it and said, "You know, I just couldn't do it. I just couldn't kill another person."
And therein lies the problem (with not just America, but much of the world over). You can't kill a person who trying to harm you or steal your property (or worse), but if you convince yourself it's only a mass of tissues or a useless eater, then it's easy to let them die. /end rant
