BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

GUN OWNERS are the enemy within?
That's rich!

Generally it seems to be the Socialist big government useful idiots that are the enemies within.

Sounds like something from a Soviet Cold War propaganda pamphlet from the ‘50’s.

Mostly false. The most dangerous gun owner is any democrat gun owner. 97% of the time, a violent criminal is a democrat supporter.

Yes, well armed freemen are the enemy...

...to anyone seeking to establish a totalitarian police state.

It all depends upon one’s perspective.

POYA statistics aside,

yes, most violent criminals would be considered to be the democrat “base”, even if they don’t personally go vote, ever.

Who cares what the flagship newspaper of a hostile communist foreign nation like California has to say?

They don’t want you to be armed when they come to get you to kneel you beside a ditch and blow your brains out. That’s the reason.

"Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill couldn’t agree even on matters that should have been noncontroversial, such as funding the Federal Aviation Administration and confirming the nominations of judges and second-level government officers."


What universe does this guy live in? Since when have judicial nominations been noncontroversial?

Yes. White House is linked right into the LA Times news-room.

Armed citizens are the natural enemies of socialists and tyrants the world over. Nothing strikes more fear into the heart of a wanna-be Stalin or Mao like an otherwise law abiding citizen who knows how to put a bullet into a piece of filth like Stalin or Mao.

The corrupt MSM, such as those who publish the addresses of patriots to cause peril, they need to be the first to go in the purge.
