I’d say they don’t “need” armored personnel carriers.

For the men who wrote the Bill of Rights, tyranny was an all-too-real personal experience. Harry simply thinks that he and the current crop of Marxists are smarter than the men who founded this nation in freedom. I disagree.

Harry Reid wouldn’t have perceived tyranny in 1776. He is what they called a Tory. He doesn’t see how we are starting to step over where the Founding Fathers drew the line.

Starting to? The line's so far behind us that nobody can see it.

Easy for this moron to say while he is wrapped in the safe confines of the government elite. He is protected while we are left to grab at elements of the Constitution to protect a dying America. We are slowly becoming outnumbered by the freebie crowd and these government elite know it. They can declare us enemies of their rules and kill us with their ATF, FBI and other executive gendarmes.

I don’t know where this is headed, but piles of rotting bodies and spent brass should not be the only recourse.

How to go from a ‘B’ NRA rating, to an ‘F’, in one easy speech.

Yo Reid, we LIVE in the real world, you don’t.

Go choke and die.

I would apologize for wishing death on another human, however; that THING IS NOT human!

I hope I am wrong. Will be happy to be wrong.

But I live next door to Illinois, and have seen the machine work. Obambi is the product of the machine now operating on the national scale.

Yeah? How about preventing REAL tyranny?

Being sneered at by this guy is like being sneered at by Josef Goebbels. He is really that bad, he is such a monumental liar and sleaze.
