It is an analogy based upon a nothing. Frogs will not stay in the pot and be boiled.

That right is justified IN the amendment by the necessity for a militia.

Protecting Freedom means far more than vetoing a AWB. Far more.

The soul and character of America are NOT tied up with an AWB or its absence. Even the gungrabbers have far more dangerous tactics to use particularly the damage cases against makers and sellers.

America's soul is far greater than its guns.

"That right is justified IN the amendment by the necessity for a militia."

The right is an individual right and it belongs to the people. The right does not depend on any necessity for a militia.

"Protecting Freedom means far more than vetoing a AWB. Far more."

That's right, it does. Seems you've missed most of the other aspects. Try reading Hayek, The Road to Serfdom. As for the AWB, it seems you've failed to grasp it's significance, because of a lack of understandig of the value of what is essentially a minimum defense and it's significance as established law. There's nothing worse than hearing that the law is valid, when on it's face it is not.

"America's soul is far greater than its guns."

That's right, it is.

While I agree with that statement, I'd also hasten to point out that there is a reason why guns have been referred to as "Liberty's Teeth".

Spoken like a half-boiled frog.

Your posting style is great. Are you Robin Williams?
