Americans never give up your guns
Pravda ^ | 12/28/12 | Stanislav Mishin

Posted on 12/30/2012 1:34:55 PM PST by Wisconsinlady

These days, there are few few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bare arms and use deadly force to defend one's self and possessions.

He had it correct. Thanks for the quote. I hope our people have learned from history.

Very good article, though I wish the author had used the correct form of ‘bear’. ‘The right to bare arms’ is what they’re pushing for in Saudi Arabia. ;)

This was worth the posting just for the comments amount the “right to bare arms” and breasts! Thanks for the laughs.

In this backward world we now live in, Pravda (Truth in Russian) prints the truth and The Washington Post prints Communist propaganda. Did you ever in your wildest dreams see this coming?

Excellent. Most people just don’t get it. When the progressives make their move after they collapse the system, they will operate the exact same way Lenin/Stalin or Hitler or Mussolini did. The true test of American resolve will be coming within a few short years.

This is the very definition of “irony”. . . .

What they want is destabilization, and rebellion which weakens our ability to project power abroad.

Correct, and as we have seen around the Med, lately, it enables subversive groups from within as well. The Muslim Brotherhood is capitalizing on such destabilization handily.

Bingo. The “progressive” Communists at the MSM would be the first ones calling for our disarmament so we could get that barrel to the ear later on. Choosing anyone other than that fifth column before anyone else is choosing the wrong target.

“The ATF/FBI or local police of whoever, goes to a private residence to confiscate guns and.. Becomes surrounded and vastly outnumbered by neighbors with guns.”..

I don’t believe the ATF/FBI WILL come to confiscate our weapons. They too are citizens of this country and IMO would (at least I hope would) side with the citizenry. I have heard more than one LEO state that he would resign before having to come after our guns. Should that happen, it would only serve to make the “resistance” even greater in number and stronger in resolve.

Massive civil disobedience would work.

That is in fact where I believe we are headed, and the idea ought to be encouraged at every opportunity. It worked for Martin Luther King, and it will work for us. Sometimes, you must must fight for your freedom - peacefully, if at all possible - but let us never shy away from defending ourselves against the gun-grabbing thugs in and out of government - by whatever means necessary.

I’ve got no ability to create an Internet or social meme but if I could I would suggest a simple, declarative statement such as “Like Hell” for a bumper sticker or a battle cry. It is somewhat similar to Armstrongs response of “Nuts” to the German offer to accept his surrender.

Better yet ask the Poles and Czechs. They understand having no way to fight oppression.

However, right now, I would have to say that the greatest threat to our liberty is from 0bama and his government, not foreign powers.

Emphasis mine.

Thank you for putting it that way. I wish more FReepers would wake up to this truth.

Actually that was General Anthony McAuliffe’s suggestion to the German infantry command during the siege of Bastogne, this month, 68 years ago. And great advice it was: “Nuts”. Simple, and to the point. Perhaps we do need something like that to stand for all of us who own firearms and will never surrender them to anyone, ever.
