There are a number of them out there who fear freedom and firearms, and no only don;'t want to be free but don't want anyone else to be free either. There isn't anything that you can take away from them that they care about.
I sorely wish I could argue against your statement, occupied ga. It doesn't even take half the population, but a small percentage who hate freedom, to make life miserable for the rest of us.
I would say New Yorkers on the whole fall into the category of hating and fearing freedom in themselves and others. Notice how many GOA F- rated politicians come from NY.
