I used to say a long time ago that:
"I do not fear my government, I fear the tyrrany of good intentions."
I used to at that time thought that the gun-control crowd was utterly stupid, and had zero reason for existence...
Now I recant that idea...They are smart, calculating but still full of it, and still do not deserve to exist...And our government seems to be very comfortable in bed with them...
I agree. They haven't forgotten history, They wish to repeat it. After all Communism is really good for those in charge. It's just the rest of us who get screwed.
