It is simply amazing to me that freepers would actually be in favor of gun control. Talk about oxy-morons ! Free and Control don't really go together do they ? Perhaps they would change the name to Controlled Repbulic. After all, that's what it would be when the guns get taken away.

Never have.. -- It's the 'control thing' that's the real problem.
Lots of conservatives think that a majority can control society for the greater good, -- to "promote the general Welfare" as our Preamble puts it.
Wrong. -- The best thing government can do is to "secure the Blessings of Liberty", -- by preventing majority control.
