I have a really bad feeling about what will happen next week.

Mugabe and his thugs are putting out vibes that they have become so bloody-minded that the Gukurahundi will look like a tea party.

"We are not going to give up our country because of a mere X. How can a ballpoint pen fight with a gun?"

In the world of thugs, only guns have the power to stop them. I will be quoting this in every debate with liberals I have. The enemies of freedom do not see danger unless they are looking down the barrel of a gun.

US and Great Britain tried to get UN Security Council action last week. South African President said no and Russia vetoed, so much for UN!

Paging Jimmy Carter. Time to shill for your favorite dictator.

You don’t bring a pen to a democratic election, you bring a gun to ensure that you win. (dictator politics 101)

I had read someplace that the pen was mightier than the sword...I guess that was incorrect.

"Democracy" -- African style -- aided by gun control...

That sort of crap is precisely why our forefathers put the Second Amendment in our Constitution.

Ol Muggyhead should try that "mere X" crap here -- the electorate has BOTH pens AND guns...

No you are not incorrect. Its just that it only works in certain situations. It won't work where your opponent is willing to up the ante. Thats why for example a Gandhi like nonviolent protest would work against the British but would fail in Hitlers Germany.
