Why do you want to invade someone else’s property with noise and racket? Don’t you respect other peole’s property?

Seems rather facist.

Noise doesn't do any damage. If you don't want noise...

Life is sometimes noisy and freedom is worth a little inconvenience.

At least, it is to me. Maybe you are willing to sell out for a lot less than I am.

“Why do you want to invade someone else?s property with noise and racket? Don?t you respect other peole?s property? Seems rather facist.”

I’m undecided on this particular gun/property issue. Some people on both sides here have made good points. This isn’t one of them. Your use of the term “fascist” is the typical liberal usage, namely to denigrate anything or anyone with whom they disagree in the conext of property/govt/rights.

Fascism is state (govt) control of property/industry and society while maintaining the forms of private ownership and freedom, with that control often used by a defacto dictator for payola, maintenance of power, punishing enemies, etc. What zero is trying to do to the GOP-donating Chrystler dealers is fascist.

The term doesn’t apply in this gun debate, which concerns competing private property interests. You hurt your position and weaken the meaning of the term “fascist” by throwing it around this way where it doesn’t belong.

Sorry to come down so hard, but we have to get back control of the language so that when we see true fascism from zero, we can call it out AND have people understand what is going on. Remember, he/she who controls the language controls the debate. The left has redefined “fascist” to mean “GW, the GOP, capitalism, and anything or anyone else that the left doesn’t like.” We need to fight back to return it to its proper meaning, not accept/use theirs. I know this might be a strange place to start, but I have to start doing my part somewhere (and hope others will join in).
