Bummer...I searched by the authors name, the phrase one step closer and the words civil war and nothing came back.
Doesn’t really bother me at all and didn’t mean to make that look like any kind of scorn. The publishing of that was an interesting thing for me to ponder, too.
Then I found out about all of the big shot moguls on the left who want to violate our Second Amendment because of their guilts and fears. Too bad that they can’t get out enough to get more in touch with physical realities and the classes of people that they are so afraid of (white collar middle and technically inclined, former private sector blue collar).
Even most of the Democrats are in favor of Second Amendment freedoms, and AR-type rifles are in style. While looking for tech. stuff on firearms (more rural-oriented stuff for old fogies like me, out here, in the middle of nowhere: bolt action ballistics, optics, etc.), I spotted a pro-Second-Amendment thread in a hit from DU, then another and another.
In one thread, an anti-Second-Amendment chick was trying to argue with a multitude of other lefties talking about AR tech. stuff. Same with the hippies around me on the Rockies. They like plinking with the new superphlasmatic, tacticool rifles, developing their “organic” gardens, their building contracting and other pursuits of self-sufficiency. They’re okay, I guess, except for their likely pot smoking. ;-)
We, as middle and lower class people, won’t really bite the money moguls, although too many of us will be poorer within a couple of years or so (default, etc.). But we, as a nation, do need to be rid of the regulations—local and federal—against private building projects and new, small manufacturing shops on our own private properties.
