The left wants your guns because they fear you. They fear you will dis over they are criminals perpetrating crimes and you will come for them. They also fear they will lose the debate with you so they want to disarm you so they can kill you.

When the only citizens who have guns are criminals, I guess I’ll just be a criminal.

Good. Let them start in Chi-Congo. When they’ve collected all the stolen guns we’ll talk.

The left wants total control. One of the reasons they hate guns is because guns offer independence.

More than that, a firearm is defiance with the high likelihood of success. The Left is good at only one thing, and that is identifying enemies. They don't want to control us, they want to kill us.

It's the ability to self-defend. It's the ability to protect one's self-and not need the police, the government, or what have you.

Precisely.

Global collectivism is easier to enforce on disarmed individuals than on armed individuals.

IMHO, there are two types of anti-gunners.

Type 1 are the ignorant. They believe media *facts* and *statistics* and they truly, sincerely believe society would be safer, better and less violent if access to guns were greatly or completely restricted. They have never been around firearms or knowledgeable firearm owners. They have been fed lies and formed their opinions on the basis of them. In many cases, these people can be cured with a trip to the range and exposure to the truth.

Type 2 are far more insidious. They understand that a firearm means a degree of autonomy and independence. It is a means of resisting heavy-handed tyranny, and they can not abide that their perceived lessers would have the temerity to possess such means.

I think this is the first time Rush has talked about guns and made sense.

I am glad he got that e-mail.

Yep. To the government guns are not to protect yourself against criminals. They don’t want you to have them so you can’t protect yourself from the government.

For the same reason they want universal health care.

The ultimate measure of Marxist dictators is mass murder. So far, Mao is in the lead.

They want your guns (not mine; they were all lost in various bizarre ways) because the one-party rule they are striving for will be worthless if the country is still armed to the teeth.
They know that, as long as we have a meaningful 2nd Amendment, we will also have a meaningful 1st Amendment.

The Left wishes to confiscate our guns because only after guns have been confiscated can the greedy middle class and rich people be “convinced” to “donate “ their accumulated wealth to the “people” (government ) for redistribution those under served members of society who have greater needs.

Seriously, this is how it was explained to me by a group of committed Leftists 20 years ago.

Sounds crazy, but these people are now pretty high up in the Democrat Party in various positions and they have not changed their way of thinking one bit.

The Lib/prog/socialists want my weapons so when they come for me, it is easier for them to kill me without risk to themselves.

Stevie Wonder said he wouldn’t play FL, until they remove the Stand Your Ground law. It wasn’t about po iddle twayyvon, it was about how Zimmerman should not have been allowed to defend himself.

It’s a law which was mentioned in the jury’s instructions but which was not central to this case— the law deals with people who feel threatened, as opposed to someone getting their head bashed in on a sidewalk.
